    Hummus

    The food here is good overall, but the outdoor seating experience really impacted our night.We ordered the large platter that came with lamb shank, chicken, fish, three types of rice, and bread. The meat was tender and very well seasoned. The hummus was also fresh and delicious!Since the indoor seating is quite limited and we were a group of six, we chose to sit outside. Unfortunately, the service was lacking. There was only one staff member taking care of everyone, so she was constantly rushing around.The biggest issue was the atmosphere outside. Another family sat right next to us and smoked continuously the entire time. It made it very hard for us to breathe. When I mentioned this to the staff before leaving, they just apologized but didn't do anything about it. It actually looked like the staff had been chatting with that family earlier, so they might have known them.Great food, but they definitely need better management of their outdoor seating area and more staff on busy nights.

    First time having traditional and authentic Iraqi food, and we really enjoyed it! This spot is clearly a local favorite, especially amongst families, and we were surprised how many people were coming for breakfast/brunch. My friends and I shared a few dishes family-style, and everything was rich and flavorful. The impressively large bread that came with our meal was perfect for the various dips that we ordered (fattoush, hummus, foul). The Small Mixed Tray came with an assortment of fried foods, which was fun to try and a great size to share for our group of 5. We also ordered the shakshuka, which we didn't realize is a different style to the more common tomato-based shakshuka, and this one is less saucy and predominantly made with bell peppers. Still good, though we were hoping for the saucier tomato version. Only downside was that we noticed a few flies indoors, which was a bit distracting having to swat them away from our food. Regardless, the rest of the experience made up for it.

    Hidden Gem! Highly recommended! This place offers a refreshing change from the typical Iraqi restaurants. The food is full of flavor and has a delicious, homemade quality. Presentation is thoughtful and inviting. The restaurant is clean, the decor has a cozy, homey feel, and the service is excellent. Everything we tried was fantastic--I'll definitely be back and will be recommending it to others.

    When you walk in, you walk into such a beautiful place with live music, a great atmosphere a wonderful service and delicious food. I came with a group of friends and we did family style and we were so stuffed from all the delicious food. We have questions they answer them and they're very helpful. The food came out fresh and extremely hot so you know it's gonna be delicious Can I get over how amazing the food and the space was. It is a cozy space, but you feel so comfy and amazing. Also, the live music was fantastic. I would come just alone for the food and live music. Also, there's birds here.

    Great Iraqi breakfast place. The aesthetic of this place is so charming and beautiful. The atmosphere makes you feel like you are transported to Iraq. The menu offers Iraqi dishes that are meant to be shared family style. The food was so flavorful. I'd recommend ordering the fattah with meat, eggs with kabob, eggs with spicy tomatoes, kabob aroog, sausage and kaymar with honey. Skip the potatoes and bagela. The service was a bit slow when we came. Overall, I'd recommend this place for authentic Iraqi food.

    So homey, cozy and delicious!

    I really enjoyed this sweet little cozy hole in the wall that was so full of the Iraqi culture. They played traditional music and the restaurant was small but super clean. The food was really good, we got brunch here and everything I tried was delicious. The service was quick and the staff was kind and checked in to see how we were enjoying our meal. I would def recommend checking this place out if you're looking to try something different and more unique full of traditional foods and ambiance. I would come back again to bring friends to experience this with me again!

    Dellah Coffee & Brunch House is a not-so-hidden gem in Dearborn, MI, serving Yemeni-American food…read moreto the large Arab population in Dearborn as well as to tourists like my boyfriend and I. Dellah is located on a mixed residential and commercial street with plenty of parking nearby. We chose to eat lunch here in June 2026 since it wasn't too far from our hotel and we saw that they had outdoor seating - important since we had my little dog with us. The place was very busy but since we were eating outside, we had no wait and we were waited upon promptly. There are a LOT of American choices on here (like sugary pancakes) but a third of the menu consists of Yemeni food. I got a traditional Yemeni tea ($4.50) and my boyfriend sipped on a smooth matcha latte ($6.50). We had a big breakfast that morning, so we chose to just share the lahm sighar ($20), which comes with a piece of khuba bread, and also order an additional khuba bread ($2). About 15 minutes later, our food was ready and after taking the necessary pictures, we dug in! Needless to say, the extra bread was not necessary. I don't know what we were thinking but we assumed a piece of khuba was small. Nope! Each piece is the size of my 17-inch computer. Anyway, we used bits of the khuba as silverware to pick up the deliciously tender lahm sighar, something I saw others do when I went inside to use the bathroom and nosily looked around. I must mention that the BATHROOM HAS A BIDET. I REPEAT. BATHROOM HAS A BIDET!!!! Hehe :) seeing it just made me happy lol. So anyway, I saw that the coffee section of Dellah is set up inside like a traditional coffee shop where you can grab and go some coffee, tea, and pastries if you'd like. I did grab my bf, dog, and I some water from the coffee counter, which is self-service. We didn't leave a crumb behind and loved our food here. I would happily come back again! There is a 3% card surcharge fee so I paid the bill with cash, which came out to about 45 dollars after tax and tip. A little pricey, thanks to our expensive drinks, but so yummy!

    I came here with our team. There was 10 of us in our party…read more Not sure whose idea among the Dellah staff thought it was a good idea to squeeze so many guys and me at two small tables by the door. This was an awful table to be at in here. We hardly had elbow room or table space, especially after the giant platter sized bread was out with all of the breakfast/ brunch items for half of the table. I ordered the Fazolia. Everyone else got omelets, burgers or wrap items. Yes, a couple of team members weren't keen on ordering Fasolia with scrambled eggs, large Greek salad, 2 lahm sighar (one with potato and one quit eggs), 2 smashed burger, Yemeni scrambled eggs, chicken fajita, Greek skillet, southwest skillet, chicken wrap, coffee, tea without milk, Turkish coffee, mint lemonade refresher. Every team member said their food was good. The scrambled eggs are a tad runny and looked a bit puréed. The fasolia has good flavor and even better with some heat. It came out piping hot. Without the added eggs, this dish would be woefully lacking in substance for me. I would likely still be left hungry with the beans alone, since I don't eat the bread, generally. I tried the bread to give it a go, it's good. The Greek salad is nicely plated or bowled rather. The ingredients are in separate piles and looks like a pinwheel. The red onions were crudely cut. The tomatoes looked wrinkled and not so appealing. The Greek salad was underwhelming for me. The tea doesn't taste good, definitely need some honey, sugar or the milk here, although I favor nothing in my tea.

    This place is definitely worth a visit if you are ever in the Detroit area. First things first,…read morethey do not take reservations and they are always on a wait, that should tell you that they are good. We arrived in the middle of a snowstorm on a weekday. It was a Friday though around 11am and, predictably, they had a wait. We had to wait about 30 minutes for a table. It was totally worth the wait. Their ambiance is cute- the hallway is clean, they have bench seating and they put you on the list to get a text, so you could sit in the car if you really wanted to; we did not. They could use a foyer though. It was 22 degrees and snowing so every time the door opened we were instantly freezing. The menu is massive so if you're trying this for the first time and you're from out of town, honey bring as many friends as you can so that you guys can order everything!! Theeeee must have that I tried were the smoked wings. I have never had wings that were smoked and then fried baby they were crispy. They were seasoned to the bone and were delicious. I almost ate them all and had no room for anything else. We also did the berry pancakes which could feed 3-5 people alone; second of all, they're not overly sweet, which is why I did berries and not the peaches or anything like that; and, third of all, the pancakes are the size of your face, but they are fluffy and melt in your mouth! These were easily top two pancakes I've had in my life. We also tried the shrimp and grits, also a 10/10. A generous portion of shrimp, not overcooked and the sauce was bomb. They do put bacon on it if you're not a bacon eater pay attention. I tasted around it anyways but yes, we also tried a vegetarian omelette with home fries. This was just a 7/10 but probably because we only ever tasted it reheated because we were too full to touch it. It was 3 entrees and an appetizer and was definitely enough food to feed a family of seven. This is a must visit place, so if you are in the area and have never been: make time!!!! And take some friends. Each plate is a day's worth of calories!

We were first seated by the big…read morecommunal table. :( I saw there was an open high top table available and asked the hostess if we could sit there. Odd the hostess didn't catch this open table for us the first time. She asked us to wait a minute. We were able to move to the window high top table. Better to not sit across a big giant table with a bunch of strangers. Ordered the Mushroom Swiss omelet with hash brown and white toast. I wanted to order the ranchero Benedict, but I am not allowed to swap out the English muffin for GF bread. Ordered the Mexicali burrito with turkey sausage and turkey bacon instead of brisket and 4 orders of beignet. $77.38 Had to ask for the toast part way into our meal. The hash browns were cold. Burrito fell apart instantly. Too hard to pick up. Tasted okay overall. Sauce on the top of burritos, made the tortilla wilted and unmanageable to pick-up. The mushroom Swiss was decent, white toast too. Potatoes slices and hash browns were okay. Service and food is average, needs some improvements for sure. The to go beignets were definitely not out in 5 minutes, took over 10 minutes. The beignets were by far the best part of the meal. Dough was light, airy, outside was crispy, yet chewy. The cream cheese dip was such a good pair.

We came back again because the food was so good. I got the mushroom French omelette and my wife got the 3 egg Mediterranean dish with beef bacon . Both were pretty fricken amazing! However, yesterday When we arrived around 10am they were way understaffed!! I was under the impression that one server didn't show. The poor hostess Hala was having to do literally everything. Guests were left waiting at the door. She would run back to seat them. Took orders. Delivered the orders. You're lucky to have such a hard worker. Hala was taking care of everything and very organized. She knows the operation and She deserves a big raise!!! Around 10:20 that day a group of staff 6 or so started showing up. I would assume that they were all arriving according to their schedule. Crazy scheduling. Poor management. But again the food was great. And the second day they were staffed well and everything was great. So I changed my original 2 star to 5. Maybe the first day was just a glitch. Enjoy!!

For example, I get the "Hearty" breakfast most of the time and it comes with eggs, meat, pancakes, potatoes and toast, and it really highlights what is this place's strength. Eggs: I get mine scrambled and have a nice selection of hot sauce to choose from. Meat: I appreciate that they offer turkey sausage since I don't eat beef or pork, but my wife loves their bacon if that's your thing. Pancakes: quality varies the most here as they are sometimes a little pale (but still good) but more often the idyllic golden one expects when ordering. Potatoes: lots of variety here, too, as my home fries come in different sized cuts with seasoning ranging from none to "no need for salt or pepper?" Toast: Again, wide variety of choices, I go with sourdough most often If this sounds like a lot of food, there are lots of other options that make it appealing to smaller appetites. But what I like about the "Hearty" is all the choices and the variation in style (probably depends on who's staffing the griddle) allows me to order the same meal and still feel like I'm getting some variety. Having said that, keep an eye out for the specials. They sometimes are tempting enough to get me to stray from usual. In addition to good food, the service is always friendly, and we've been back enough times to where I think every server recognizes us. Like I said, it's a favorite.
