Cant go wrong with hamido's. The true art of lebanese cuisine i must say. Been ordering food from here since i was a kid. Hamido has the best chicken in town and a side of houmous and fries to go with it and you will be set. A true lebanese meal read more

Best place in Dearborn. Close your eyes and point to the menu and order that. No matter what you order the food is amazing! If I could give it ten stars I would. Inside the restaurant is clean, the service is always professional and fast. Never a let down! If you've never been here before.... GO! You'll be hooked on first bite. read more

Really as good as it gets! We were driving from Chicago to DC and yet we went to Dearborn just to eat here! Great platter!

Like everyone else says best chicken shwarma EVER. The garlic sauce is perfect. Prices are cheap. Just wish it was closer to Livonia.

Meat shawarma is great chicken was under cook with no flavor, bathroom was disgusting i couldn't eat after I went to wash my hands it looked like a public restroom and I think the public restroom is cleaner and it's so unprofessional when the manager or the owner is rude to his employees in front of customers read more

Okay, the shawarma and hummus are superb. They'd earn the place five stars, if it weren't for one major problem. Which is that the pita isn't made fresh here. So maybe this place has better better hummus and better shawarma than some other places; the increase there isn't enough to make up for the huge drop caused by going to bagged pita. Still, that takes it down a notch, but it's still worth having. read more

As a visitor from the culinary capital of North America, i was impressed by the quality and taste of the food. The Arabs that operate the place are wonderful. The scarved waitress was lovely and i have to say, i will return to New Orleans read more

Service is incredibly poor. Had a takeout order that they took and then forgot about while I stood around for 30 minutes. No apologies. Would have give 1 star except the food was ok (not great, but worth 3 stars). read more

Great place love the hummas

I had guest from NY, who wanted a taste of decent middle eastern food. We order the biggest platter they have enough for my guests. As we ate away one of my guests finds a bandaid in the kafta which was disgusting. Showed young kid who was ruining the place at night. He apologized but still billed us for the food no one even touched. I'm not petty so I paid no problem. Would've made a scene to everyone in the restaurant or even took a picture and posted here to show how nasty that was. But ill just post me a review here, and stop going there period. read more

One of the newer arabic (middle eastern) restaurants to hit east Dearborn. I remember when this place was a donut shop. Great pricing and the most flavorful in the area. Most people take carryout since there dining area is small. I wouldn't be surprised if they relocated to a larger place nearby, they have loyal customers that would follow. I love the lentil soup here and usually get one of their combo plates for the family. You get plenty of food per dish and much healthier than fast food. read more

The in and out of arab diners in the heart of Dearborn Michigan... fast, cheap, and great food.

Went back during a recent middle eastern food binge and introduced my husband to the hummus. Got that, garlic, and shawarma to go - way yummy. Hubby says it is the best he has had, and I agree! read more

This place is overrated. You can get much better food anywhere else in Dearborn. The whole rotisserie chicken is dry and bland. No salt or seasoning. The salad is drenched in dressing and soggy. Chicken shawarma was undercooked and the hummus was mediocre. read more

My stepbrother was in town, and he wanted to have some 'authentic' local food. Originally he wanted El Barzon, but he didn't get to my house in time before they closed. So my next suggestion was Middle Eastern food. I wasn't really sure where to go, so I used my Yelp app on my phone to figure it out. Hamido's was our final choice, especially since we didn't get there til 10:30pm & they were open til 12am. We ordered a bunch of food including the Vegetarian Plate to share at the table. My cousin & I both ordered the Shawarma Combo with beef & chicken. She got baba ghanoosh and I got rice with our plates. My stepbrother was looking for something unique...tongue, brains, liver, etc. By suggestion of our kind waitress, he ordered the chicken liver sandwich. The shawarma meat had great flavor, but it was not good quality meat. There a lot of fatty pieces, which was disappointing. I'm not sure if that's because it was the end of the night and that's what was left. The rice was just okay. I tried the baba ghanoosh, and it was really good. Our vegetarian platter was very good. I tried a grape leaf, hummus, and falafel. I'm not a fan of grape leaves now that I've tried one. I don't have anything to compare it to though. The falafel was also new to me and I did enjoy it. My stepbrother asked for jalapeno peppers for his sandwich, and they came freshly sliced. He was really impressed with the sandwich & said it was one of the best he's ever had. So, if you're into chicken liver sandwiches, this is your place. My cousin & stepbrother really enjoyed the plate of pickled radishes (I think that's what they are?). Our waitress was very kind and patient. My stepbrother enjoys engaging waitstaff when we're out with questions and odd conversation, which usually keeps us laughing, and hopefully the waitstaff is equally entertained. I'd definitely like to go back and try some other dishes, maybe not so late though! read more

While other Middle Eastern restaurants try to reproduce the glory of restaurants from their homeland this restaurant has a definite Detroit feel. It's essentially a smaller converted Denny's. Shwarma and lamb was decent, what I would expect. The garlic sauce was a bit runny for my tastes and I wish it had packed more of a garlicky punch. Certainly not a disappointing place in anyway but I can't think of anything that makes it stand out above the rest either. read more

Food was good but little heavy on the salt. The burger is my favorite.

Simply delicious food. I have only had items with chicken in it so far, but boy I'm sold! Not a fancy place by any standards, but

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! We got the platter for 2 with three types of meat, salad, hummus, rice and pita bread. It was so much food, plenty to split between 3 people and all for just $24! It was wonderful! I would definitely go back here! The rice has a wonderful cinnamon flavor and the meat, especially the chicken was so flavorful and tender! It was one of the best Middle Eastern meals I've had in a long time! read more

I've come here twice and will come back again. The baba ganoush is out of this world. Not super nice inside, but the food is fantastic! We got the platter that feeds 3-4 and when the 3 of us left it looked like we had just moved food around on the plate, but we were so full (happily). read more

Hamido was our first taste of the Middle Eastern restaurant cluster in Dearborn, and if there's anything we regret, it's that we live so frickin far away that we're not sure when we'll have a chance to go back. For lunch, we shared the veggie platter (with tabouli, hummus, grape leaves, and falafel) and a kebab sandwich plus two sodas for less than $20. They have a basket of bread sitting on every table, and the bread is just the perfect texture, moist and chewy with a floury outer texture. It picked up the hummus so deliciously. The meal also came with complimentary pickled cukes and peppers, which also went well with the food. We walked away stuffed silly, although that did not deter us from stopping at one of the local bakeries for baklava. If you haven't been, you are doing yourself a disservice! read more

Service is okay. Always busy and long wait times. Food is excellent though! Highly recommend this place if not in a hurry.

Their food is great. Loved the hummus, falafel, tabouli and sheesh kabobs. However the service is a bit slow. On my first visit , I ordered two appetizers and a sandwich. The hummus came up within 5 mins but it took them 15 additional mins to get the falafel appetizer out. And after that it took another 15mins+ to get my sandwich out. I feel 30+ mins to get a sheesh kabob sandwich is too much. They have a lot of young kids working the front and I'm guessing they might be family members. The waitress was waiting on tables and texting at the same time. I'm giving them four stars based on food quality, otherwise based on service the score would be lower. read more

Fast food Arabic style at its finest. I had a rotation here and would often stop here for a tasty bite. I really like the rotisserie chicken, fattoush, hummus, and tabbouleh. It is definitely a restaurant to eat at with a big crowd. read more

I went here when I was over in that area of Dearborn I first heard of that place on My Cuzins Radio Show on Channel 955 I had a wrap it was GREAT read more

We went for dinner the other night, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Our meals came out quickly, and they were very enjoyable. I had a chicken schwarma sandwich, and it was very filling and affordable. My wife had the vegetable plate, with very flavorful and soft grape leaves. Hommos and tabbouli were fresh too. The two women taking orders at the counter and taking care of the tables were very friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed. They made sure not to have the sun shine too much into people's eyes, that we were all happy with our meals, and let us stay extra long chatting away. Overall, great place to go. It is very affordable, depending on what you order, and the people working were very fun to be around. read more

This place is the best! The Dearborn Heights location has feta. Try it on your fattouch.

I'm sorry Dearborn but we lost a good one here. Portions have been cut down drastically over the past few years and I almost hate to admit the quality has as well. Hamido used to be a place I referred people from out of town too but lately I've been embarrassed to even say that I've been there. Bad service bad food just an over all bad experience. read more

Best hummus ever! Tasty falafel! Meat was good too! Definitely sad I don't live local otherwise I'd be here every other day. Don't come here expecting fine dining, very causal with good customer service and great food. What more could you ask for read more

This place is AMAZING! Food is excellent. I recommend the meal for two people with a side of tabbouli. The portions are very large--so even though it says for two people, this order really could feed three people comfortably. The two-person meal is great because it gives you all the meat options: Shishtawook, beef and chicken shawarma, kabob, beef chunks. The chicken shishtawook in particular was amazing--super moist and juicy! Both the tabouli and fattoush are also excellent--very tangy. And the hummos and bab ghanoush, again excellent. The servers were very friendly and even indulged us when we asked to take a picture with our amazing food! HIGHLY recommend! read more

As far as middle eastern food goes, its all pretty much the same to me. What sets this place apart is that there shawarma is the closest thing to the standard with out catching a plane to the middle east. The only way there Shawarma could be better is if the bread was fresh out of the oven prior to making your sandwich, which is unrealistic. So 5 stars. I wish they were a little quicker on the carry out. One of my friends told me he doesn't like the owner but he loves his food and he eats there anyway LOL. Which motivated me to try it. I don't know the owner but I know his food, so we cool he can make me a sandwich anytime! read more

Just had a fabulous meal here! We ordered the meal for three so we could try all the things, each and everyone was more delicious than the next. A must try. read more

Fantastic place. My friend and I shared the two person special and it was plenty of food for three! Meats were grilled perfectly, tasty salad, several extra things (hummus, garlic paste, etc...) to make a very fulfilling meal. Staff was very friendly. If you want a good sampling of Middle Eastern food come t Hamido! read more

The best shish kabob I've had outside of the Middle East. The decor on the inside isn't amazing, but the food is GOOD! The place is almost always packed. read more

The food is usually flawless, and hasn't changed much after many many years. I have tried all of their food and it is all amazing. But I will say their hygiene is a huge factor hence the three stars. It wouldn't kill you guys to do a little update to the bathroom, parking lot and interior. First off, the bathroom is disgusting. The parking lot is atrocious and impossible to get in and out without some type of altercation with someone in an SUV. The interior is out dated, as I understand this was supposed to be just for takeout, BUT we see locals and tourists all day, why not update and make some type of change? read more

I'm not sure if they changed cooks, but quality has definitely went downhill. The last three orders I've made were below average.

I've dined in and placed many carry outs. The authenticity of the food is spot on and the food quality is great. If the service were even 3 stars, I would've rated it higher. You don't get that welcoming experience you would from restaurants with better customer service. The place is small and dated. The servers look like they're forced to work here and it's almost as if they dread having tables. Don't ask questions because they're attention is at the next table waiving them down because that table has also been waiting ages for someone to return to their table. They forget things and if you need a refill, just forget about it. The high yelp rating is correlated with the great food because eating here is painfully stressful. They should remodel into a server-free style of a restaurant where you order and pay when you walk in, pickup your food at the end of the counter when it's ready, fill your own drinks and seat yourself. read more

Food 5 stars. Meats are juicy, tender and fresh. I would highly recommend Hamidos special plate. The rice cooked right and salad fresh. If you want to try Arabic cuisine then head to Hamidos. Service was okay and the space is tight, but made up for all that was lacking. This will be my new spot whenever I'm in Dearborn. read more

Great Menu. Kinda Mom and Pop, but food tastes like Lebanon !!!

Yuck. Maybe I ordered wrong, but it was my first time here and the take out person wasn't friendly at all so I felt rushed. I got chicken and hummus, with grilled veggies and grape leaves. They literally just cut a chicken in half and put it on my plate... Ummm no thanks, I could have done that. Hummus was flavorless and veggies were lame. Grape leaves were done well. I won't be back here, too many other places that do it better close by. Sorry :/ read more
