Middle Eastern Restaurants in Dearborn, MI

“Alameer dearborn have the best arabic food and top servers we have the best cooks and best owners“

“Maybe the most interesting Middle Eastern menu I've seen with all their lamb offal dishes. The Aleppo spicy muhammara was probably one of the best dips I've tried, and I also got a generous amount of bread to dip. The chef/owner was super friendly. I'll definitely return to try the other dishes.“

“This is a great place. The food is super delicious, and the workers are respectful and kind. Highly recommend. The prices are really good here. The food is not expensive at all. Chicken burgers here are the best ones I have ever tasted. You should definitely go here.“

“Mashalla this is the best restaurant I have ever went to in my entire goddman life! Like, sheesh bro, calm down with the quality and tenderness of your chicken, my mouth exploded of joy when I devouered this divine dish! Allah must have bestowed this chef with his extraordinary cooking skills. Just absolutlely fabulous!
And my god, the atmosphere was just something else! The prison vibes were so accurate I felt like I was never gonna get out of this place, although I actually forgot that I have indeed murdererd someone and deserve to be in here! Absolutely crazy.
Also the variety of the food was great! Chicken and shrimp are only some of the few extravagant choices on the menu, but they are by far my absolute favorites (although I thought they tasted quite similar).
And the service was also ambsolutely amazing! The waiter (also the cook) was kind enough to provide me with a menu as soon as I entered and cleared a table for us by scooping up the remains of previous guests' food with a plastic tablecloth and making it magically dissapear like a wizard! And such grace in his movements! Truly the mark of a professional at work!
All in all the best restaurant experience I have ever had in my life!
Inshallah may your future be prosperous and may lots of customers flood the gates of Aden Restaurant! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏“

“Very Delicious food and great services.“

“Had lunch today with 4 other friends. The service was great. But the food was outstanding. I'm from the East side. So i often go the Iraqi restaurants on Ryan and 15 mile. The food served to us was better than any of those. Do yourself I favor and stop in at Arbeel Kabab for the best Kabab in town.“

“Excellent food and service. Got a catered dinner around Xmas. Was delicious, economical and saved me tons of work. No going back to slaving over a stove.“

“THE BEST PIES. I’ve tried plenty bakeries but nothing compares to Cedarland for me. Just the perfect ratio of dough to filling, best texture, best flavors. You would never guess what gem of a place that is until you try it. Thank you for doing what you do and staying consistent♥️“

“We've eaten here a few times recently and every time has been delicious! We have loved everything we've tried so far. The complimentary spicy garlic sauce with the bread is so good. The salad is so fresh and we love the dressing and pita chips in it. The hummus is great. The chicken schwarma sandwich is yummy and a great lunch deal. But we usually split the platter for 2 when we are both eating here because it lets you try multiple things and gives you way more food. we always have leftovers so we get to eat more of this amazing food later on. All the meat has been juicy and tender. We love the rice with the almonds in it. Everything is just delicious! Can't wait to come back. I want to try other things because they have so many things that sound good but we also love what we get already so it's so hard to switch it up! lol Might have to try something new next time though just to see what else we like. All the staff have been super nice and the restaurant itself is beautiful. Love all the unique lighting. Highly recommend! Trenton Location“

“We celebrated family member birthday last Aug.03 at your branch at East Dearbon. The place was nice and everybody enjoyed the food from appetizer (Humus) and the signature dishes (Fahsah and the grilled platter Lamb Haneeth). We loved it!

Sana'a's Old City One of the oldest continuously-inhabited cities in the world (others being Jericho, Damascus and Aleppo), Sana'a is believed to have been founded by Shem, the son of Noah. As a result, the city has the unlikely nickname of "Sam City". A absolutely explosion of flavor many Yemeni folks drive from around metro Detroit to enjoy a taste of home. I asked our superstar waitress Katie Rose to have chef make me special 20 buck Yemen Food platter OMG fantastic with half Yemeni Chicken, Tender Moist Lamb on a bed of the Famous Yemen Rice and hot sizzling bowl of Saltah Saltah (Arabic: سلتة) is a Yemeni dish. It is widely eaten in northern parts of the country. It is mainly served for lunch. The base is a brown meat stew called maraq, a dollop of fenugreek froth, and sahawiq or sahowqa (a mixture of chillies, tomatoes, garlic, and herbs ground into a salsa). A couple fresh hot outta the oven, Malawah Bread is one of the many kinds of bread eaten in Yemen. What makes it unique is that it is layered and folded with butter or ghee inside which makes it very tasty. She had a special Yemeni Chicken topped salad. Katie brought a couple cups of deliciousness Yemeni Tea Free for everyone a custom of true Yemeni restaurant. Easy to find large parking lot in rear.

“Delicious food and friendly service. My go to bakery!“

“This place was recommended by a great friend.
Great portions and flavorful food

Came in on a Friday afternoon with a group of six.

The place had a diverse crowd which was an instant green flag!


The restaurant was well organized, clean, and inviting. The bathroom was well kept (another green flag). The rustic wall with a bricks and styled windows is a nice touch.



We ordered the family platter with salad and hummus as our sides. The portions were huge. We had to take it to go after we were done eating.
The bread basket was comforting and warming. Went well with the hummus.

The food platter cane with a good variety of meats ( chicken, kofta beef, and steak bites)



The service was kind and friendly although a bit slow.
Also, the refills of coffee came in a PLASTIC pitcher. Not ideal but the food made up for any shortcomings!

Overall: 4.5/5 ⭐“

“I’ve been eating here since I was a little kid, hands down my favorite spot for a quick bite or a large order to feed my family, the best shawarma and rotisserie chicken in Michigan! They also have delicious sides and other menu items, the quality of the food has never declined“
