Authentic Syrian cuisine. A sweet syrian couple are running the place and they have many delicious dishes. Cherry kabob was amazing. They also have some exotic dishes (for average Americans) like stuffed lamb stomach and braised lamb head. It is absolutely amazing but not for the faint of heart LOL.

Really hospitable and welcoming owners. Syrian food is the best among all Mediterranean food I have tried so far. Reasonably priced delicious food. We will come again.

I’m slightly Shocked at all these positive reviews. This was my first time there. I don’t mind hole in the wall restaurants usually they have the best food- however, walking in I noticed it looked dirty to me- the floors, bathroom, salt n pepper shakers. There was only one other customer in the restaurant at the time . We sit down and I kid you not we were not offered anything to drink the whole time we were there. Our waitress or possibly owners wife was nice but if she is an actual waitress she needs major training. I never in my life have experienced not being offered something to drink while at a restaurant. . We ordered our food which Was mediocre. I ordered chicken Shawarma platter with barely any chicken. Maybe the size of my palm/ 2oz of chicken- I will say I did like the taste of the chicken but the rice was dry/bland. Husband ordered a sandwhich of some sort. On the menu It stated my meal was $15 but when we received the bill it was $18. Slightly pricey if you ask me with not that much food being offered. Kids plate was $8. Again a little bit more than other places. Plus an extra random $2 charge. Didn’t bother asking why. Don’t think i will return.

The best middle eastern food in town , hands down . It was my first time there to try it . I was amazed how great the taste , the freshness , the authenticity of the food , no comparison to it all . If u like middle eastern food , u will love el chabab. The service is quick .. and very friendly people . 5 stars . The pics will say it all

The food was good and there are so many options to choose from!

Authentic Arabic restaurant, very good food and service. Couldn’t have imagined all the stuff that they have on the menu everything is amazing. Highly recommend this place the owner is an amazing guy and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable

Family loved the authentic Syrian food. Excellent taste and service

Food was amazing. Especially the lamb head, kabobs, and spicy hummus. However, when it came to paying, the prices were incorrectly advertised on the menu (print out new menus instead of just writing the new price in, which I did not see). Furthermore, I was charged $2 for water that cost 20 cents at a grocery store. I dont know why they cant just provide that water as this is Detroit, not Damascus. Also, there was a homeless guys squatting in the bathrolm and he stank. The service was otherwise great. The restaurant appeared to be operated by a husband and wife and the wife who served me was very friendly and gave me a whole large aluminum tray to take home. However, because I was charged $6 more than expected, I did not tip (I would've tipped about that amount otherwise). The only reason I still gave the restaurant 4 stars is because it was the best food I've eaten in the United States in my 25 years of living here. I might come here again, but Im going to bring my own water and ask about the prices before ordering.

The perfect spot if you’re going through or visiting Dearborn. Authentic, delicious and in generous portions. Staff is super friendly and the vibe is very relaxed. We loved everything!

One of, if not the best Syrian food that I ever had. The restaurant is run by a lovely family and everyone is super friendly. We had amazing food and service

This is our favorite cuisine to dine in when we miss Aleppo and the food we used to eat there.. they never disappointed us so far ( we have been customers for probably 10 years or so) if you love Syrian food this is your to go place.. i only wish they hire someone to clean the restrooms and the dining area more

Really delicious home made food. The meat pies were so fresh and flavorful. Really yummy hummus and grape leaves

This is my food happy place. I've been coming for years, and I'm glad to see the business thriving. When I say you will have never had food that tastes like this, I mean it. I've had every type of Middle Eastern food and Al Chabab blows every other restaurant out of that water. Deliciously complex flavors at a reasonable price.

This is the best Arabic food I have ever tried in the US. Their grills have the perfect smoky taste. Their meat is fresh and tender off the bone. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic experience!

Seriously wow. Finally something truly authentic and a different menu compared to all the other Mediterranean restaurants with the typical kabob and Shish menu. We tried the lamb head the makadem fatte and masareen. So delicious absolutely phenomenal very clean and done professionally. It’s diffidently a place where you come to indulge and not count calories. The kitchen and the staff were absolutely sweet. The place needs a little updating on the inside but other than that it’s probably the best taste of Mediterranean food in Dearborn and we almost tried all of them. We will definitely come back every time we visit.

Wow, I have eaten from many restaurants in the area and this one definitely is a step above the rest. My husband and I order the combo for 2 and have enough food for 2 meals. Incredible!

we have been coming here for yours, and the food never changes! it is so delicious, better than all the other middle eastern and lebanese restaurants in the area that are only known because of theor name, but restaurants in the area have definitely downgraded, but this place is really the best. food is authentic and fresh, and most importantly clean. i come here everytime im in dearborn, definitely recommend everyone give it a try

We came here based on the reviews we read. It's a very modest place but the food is exceptional. We ordered the kibbe, sheep's head and cherry kebab. Everything was fresh, carefully prepared and delicious. I have to say that the cherry kebab was a standout. The sheeps head did not smell (sometimes if they are not prepared well they don't smell appetizing at all). I'd say how that dish is prepared is a big clue on the quality of the restaurant. You won't be disappointed!

Delicious food and great people working there Fresh and original taste Great flavour and affordable prices and don’t forget to try the rice pudding it’s gonna blow your mind Love this place from the first time and sure well be back

I tried Sheep Head which was soooooo good and different. Best Syrian Restaurant in Dearborn. Best Service too.

Amazing people! Amazing food! Cherry kabob was amazing and the masareen were even better. Great portions for great prices. Must visit in Dearborn!

Great food, great service. The spicy muhammara was good, but fair warning that it does live up to its name. (I would say I have medium heat tolerance.) I also had the veggie ghallaba and cherry kabob. The cherry kabob was really good - the meat was tender and delicious!

"Not good quality, pricy for the portion size" Don't recommend and won't go back! Pros: The owner was nice and welcoming The food taste was good. Cons: 1) We ordered Ferikeh and Shakriya hopping to try new Syrian food. But the portion sizes we very small and they had very little meat! The Ferikeh had 4 pieces of meat and two of them were just bone and fat. Shakriya had 4-5 very small floating meat chunks in it! 2) It took a while for them to bring the food and they didn't bring both dishes at the same time ( 10 mins apart) 3) The food didn't seem fresh

Best Syrian food in Michigan, perhaps in the entire county. The very hard to find muhammara is the star of the meal with its smoky flavor and robust undertones. It just never stops being delicious from start to finish! Their baba ghanoj is one of a kind! It's always an incredible meal at this restaurant.
