MAKE Projects

Incredible food, amazing staff, and an important mission. A delicious restaurant that is also a nonprofit supporting communities in need. The Afghan chicken tacos were insanely delicious. We were with a big group and ordered a variety of items off the menu. All of them were top quality and fresh. Lots of open space and very family friendly. Highly recommend. Will be coming back frequently

Very sweet employees and great atmosphere! The afghan chicken tacos were packed with flavor and the texture of the tortilla was perfect. Sambusas were crispy and had a great sauce with them. The drinks were also fantastic. Super cool spot for lunch!

Absolutely delicious! I wasn't expecting the food to be this good - I came to support their mission & values - but the food & drinks had such yummy and unique flavors. Only complaint is we wish we ordered more!!! Not the cheapest place ever for breakfast but very comparable prices to every other place in North Park with the added benefit of your purchase supporting their mission of job creation & sustainable community-led agriculture! Will definitely be back next weekend!

The food and service were wonderful, and the vibe/decor is just darling! I thought the prices were very fair, considering we each got an app, entree and coffee. We came for breakfast and their citrus-yogurt with seasonal fruit and granola was a perfect, lighter appetizer for two. Usually I am the person asking “who goes out for a yogurt bowl?” but this bowl was unique with all of the different flavors and just the right amount of different textures (creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, fruit). The sambusas were also heavenly! They are a must-get item and also work well as an appetizer. I also liked that they had many small plate options for sharing - a little taste of everything! For two people, I think 2 apps and 1 entree or 1 app and two entrees would be plenty.

The beet spread and shakshuka was delicious. Love the mission and the food/drinks were very good. Very spacious also.

Delicious brunch! We enjoyed the Somali Malawian which was absolutely delightful—cheesy, hearty, and spiced. We also had the duck and sweet potato hash that was topped with a super fresh salad. If you enjoy a savory dense bread, the Afghan sweet bread was a great end to our meal, as the citrus butter was to die for. Will definitely be going back!

This place never disappoints. The food is fresh, flavorful, and perfect portions. The chicken n blue corn waffles and Afghan Tacos were delicious! Mimosas with lemongrass and OJ is a great upgrade from the standard. Friendly and attentive staff. Highly recommend.

Located in North Park, MAKE cafe offers a large and airy space with great food from various cuisines and the business supports women refugees and immigrants. We went here for brunch for the first time and we left stuffed and feeling good! Parking: Just like any other North Park establishment, expect to take time looking for street parking. Service/Ambiance: The place is huge and could accommodate larger groups. It has a rustic feel with high ceilings. You order at the cashier and they serve the food to your table. Our food came out very quickly. Food: Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to order a lot but many items on the menu looked inviting. We ended up order the MAKE Breakfast sandwich ($13) and added beef kofta sausage patty ($5). The flavor of patty was amazing and I really appreciated that the milk bread didn’t crumble/get soggy— big must for me. It was a well-made sandwich which I’d get again. Overall: I’d definitely come back to MAKE cafe to try out many other things on their menu!
