What Channa M Proctor likes about Mecca Restaurant:
Don't let the decor deter you! This small old school diner is great! The small town feel takes you back! The food was awesome and the waitress was super friendly and attentive. Even the water is delish ! Highly recommend visiting this cozy spot in downtown Raleigh! View all feedback.
