We are from out of town and were looking for a good pacha place, and I'm glad we found this one. It's the best Iraqi-pacha we've had maybe ever! Very clean, delicious, and huge amount per 1 order. Also one of us tried their Shawarma and it's amazing too. I totally recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic high quality Iraqi food. Next time We're in Detroit, will definitely go again. read more

The food was not properly cooked, and the experience was disgusting. I will never order from this place again. I ordered fried fish, and it was undercooked, so I had to throw it away. It seemed like they forgot about my order and then rushed to prepare it at the last minute. Very disappointing and unacceptable. read more

I wish I could give this place -5 stars the lady in the front had the biggest attitude I litterly canceled my whole order and left (which I never do) but today is Friday October 3rd 2025 2:00pm the lady was working and I waited well over 30 minutes when she said "10 minute" horrible place to go to I have been here before and always received bottom of the barrel service and high pricing never again!

We've been ordering big plates from najeeb for a long time. Because we always thought they have good food and they give a good amount of food. But now the price has increased but the amount of food they give has lessened. We still order food from them from time to time even though we moved away from the area. Yesterday i Ordered a 3 person plate. I was disappointed. The shawarma (especially the chicken) was overcooked and dry. The kabobs were burnt. And the chicken tikka was missing. The pickled vegetables that came with it was a measly amount. Also I was looking forward to the potato stew but it contained cucumbers instead. I guess i have to look for another place to order a big plate from :( read more

Stopped in for lunch and got a chicken shawarma wrap and a side of hummus. The wrap stuck to the paper and didn't stay wrapped when you open it because it was so greasy, soaked through the paper and the bag it was put in. Side of hummus was bland and for some reason also had grease on top. Overall not a great meal and doubt I will ever be back. read more

I have known Najeeb restaurant for years, the food is great and cant be beaten. The cooks are wonderful as is the food they prepare, the place is amazing. But unfortunately i had a bad experience today with the over the phone orders, the lady seems to be really quick to try to hang up and end the order, it was a tray for 10 and i needed additional orders not including the sides, but she became angry and edgy without understanding that i needed to do my other orders as well, anger is not good costumer service, i don't care if you have people standing in line as you said later, but anger and snapping on a costumer is not good for Najeeb Kaboob house. you could easily have said "could you please stay on hold for a couple of minutes if you have more orders, i have people in line". For that lady please understand what costumer service is before taking calls, you are representing a business not yourself, be a professional, understand what a business is and what a professional is. It is a hard job, if you cant do it then don't. Najeeb has been there for ages and you just knocked it down. As for the rating, Najeeb gets a 10+++ as usual , the phone lady gets double zero and hopefully gets back to 10+. Note: This incident took place on Friday 05/26/2023 near to 12:30 PM. read more

The garlic sauce was tasteless and had a weird cream to it. The shawarma was slimy. Would not recommend.

I came from Ohio just to have authentic Iraqi breakfast. The owner Najeeb was a very nice man he welcomed us wormy the lady who was serving us was nice and friendly and the food was testy too but I gave them 3 stars because of the chef ‍ they have Janet she was very rude , I ordered bajilaa it's beans with bread and onion usually Iraqies eat eggs with it she covered my plate with eggs I told her I don't eat eggs and asked her to make another plate without eggs and I will pay for that one with the eggs as well but she kept yelling why you didn't tell me that from the beginning and why you don't eat eggs are you allergic or what she was rude and in a very bad attitude... the food was testy but I hope the chef changes her bad attitude with her costumers read more

The staff was very friendly and welcoming... however.. The lentil soup was warm baby food. No flavor what so ever. Just straight puree. I was asked to move tables but was never served any water or asked if I wanted anything to drink. Most arab places are ready when you walk in the door with all of that. The Kabob sandwich was drenched with tahini. Garlic tahini. The pickles tasted old. The table next to us got wayy more service then we did. Anyways just wont be going back. Going back to arbeel read more

Yes it is one of those hole in the wall type of place, however the food was pretty amazing I have been on a quest to find the best kefte kebab in America and this place surely fits that category. The shawarma was ok, my brother ordered what's called pacha which is a lamb head soup. Our server "Bushra" was pretty amazing, so friendly, very attentive. I recommend the beef kebab there and the house tea. All and all eating at this place was a pleasant experience. read more

Amazing customer service, food was ready on time, and every bit of the platter for 3 was ahhhmazing! Nothing was dry, the rice was very flavorful; they use sella rice and it's a really fragrant type of rice, so you can tell they pay attention to quality & taste. It comes with condiments like pickled cabbage & regular pickles, 3 pitas, and 2 bowls of potato & bean soup. It sure is a lot of food for 3 people. For only $29.99, this is great deal! read more

This place is pretty traditional. Their not organized at all but the food is great. They have Chaldean food which most ppl know it as Middle East food. I've had different sandwiches here from the chicken Shawarma beef shawarma, I've had dolma... everything is very tasty. They are nice but not organized like I already said. But it's all good. They are nice the food is good I don't care about the rest. read more

A classic spot in sterling heights Michigan. Do not expect alot from this little place when you walk in, however, once you get your order you'll be on a different planet of flavours! Najeeb is a casual little dining restaurant with maybe 40 seats tops, they're big on takeouts, and breakfast is definitely a hit. read more

Ordered to pick up. The food wasn't bad. The portion was amazing. And the price is pretty reasonable. Wish there were more flavor. And definitely sauce. They charge for sauce. Who does that?!? It's a big platter shouldn't some sauce come as complimentary. I'm used to that since I'm from NyC. Also it doesn't even come close the the similar food I've had in Nyc. The koftas tasted really good. I've come in to eat as well. And to pick up. The waiting staff is horrible. Waiting time for food is pretty bad too. I literally waited over 30 mins just for a "to go" shawarma. While eating. In the waitress barely understood anything I've said. And she was rushing. I had to ask for sauce about 5 times. Until I got up and went to the counter and asked; but the person in the counter did not give it she asked the waitress to. But I guess this type of behavior is because it's a small and pretty affordable restaurant they get a lot of customers anyway. Overall the food is exceptional. I've had much better. If you have no where to go and not a lot of money in your pocket. This place will do. If your looking for mouth watering omg taste- this place won't do. read more

Najeeb Kabob House - Mixed platter. Whole rot issuer chicken. Chicken and beef shawarma. Beef and chicken kofta. Yellow rice. And other stuff. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Warren, Michigan

Anthony Bordaine type of spot. Famous for Paja ( rice stuffed cow intestines and meat broth) which is a tradition dish. Again Bordaine style so not ur everyday dish. They also have a uniquely home cooking touch to ur more known dishes. Chicken and lamb shawarma (ask for Iraqi Samon instead of pita which is similar to a french pastry) . Rice stuffed chicken (made over coals for home made flavor), other home dishes that probably was on the table of Jesus and Moses is Kubba Hamuth, Kubba Mosul and quails. If ur not into food travel, stick with the basic sandwich menu which always pleases. read more

It's been 7 years since i have been to this place, and I just stopped in today to get couple sandwiches. I got to say, for hole in a wall place and run by ladies, the are doing way better than last time i was there. The food very fresh and very great service with reasonable prices. read more

This is one of the best kabbab restaurants in the area and is absolutely packed during lunch. Nevertheless they are prepared for the rush and can get you your food within minutes. Usually go for their lamb schwarma with salad to stuff in the bread with garlic sauce but their BBQ chicken is flaweless as well, tender and juicy and a huge portion. They did so well they went from a small hole in the wall to a renovated and much bigger restaurant. Don't be afraid of the long lines you'll still be able to get in and out in a timely manner. read more

I was looking for a falafel place and unfortunately I decided to try this restaurant, they have a bad cashier she wasn't very nice plus no mask on. I ordered 12 falafel pieces and after we waited they gave us chicken by mistake, we drove back before we got home and return the chicken and the other customer refused to take the chicken I took "during the pandemic" as she said. But actually she should be afraid of the cashier not me because she didn't have gloves or mask on while I had. However, after I got home the falafel were 10 piece not 12 and they were under fried and tasted bad but I didn't go back and I won't go back to this place anymore. read more

Customer service is ass. Placed a shawarma order which they typically make in front of you. The lady told me to wait, mind you the restaurant was dead empty. As I waited, another guy came in, ordered the exact same thing, got his food and left. The girl looked at me as she went back to sitting down in her ass and text. Been going there since high school, the quality dropped and priced increased. Also hired idiots over time read more

I have been going here for 8+ years and I will no longer be buying food here. I called in an order today for pickup and had to wait a half hour in dining room. The ladies on the phone were rude as mentioned before. And the prices for the platters have gone up significantly. Worst part is I ordered 2 sides of garlic sauce for $5 each and when I got back to work, they were plain yogurt and not garlic sauce, I'd go back but it's a 20 minute drive each way. I regret spending $92 there just now. Had to go to a different place closer to get garlic sauce, so I spent another $10. Stay away from this place. read more

Delicious food, friendly service, we tried everything from the breakfast menu, all was great

Waited over an hour for two sandwiches and their hummus tahini w/ chicken. 10 minutes turned into 45 & judge when we thought our Oder was ready 5 minutes turned into 15. the lady taking orders and the waitress were extremely rude. I saw ppl so upset because their to go orders were not ready. My husband and I waited patiently were polite to Them as it's not their fault that the food coming from the kitchen wasn't ready and what do we get in return is rudeness. We stopped in on a Sunday and put in a to go order what we got in return was the waitress Bc she saw me Open my order (i wanted to make Sure it was correct an dues i did taste it, she tells me it's a different price to sit and eat.. i could not believe this.. very rude, i said we've been waiting and we are hungry so yes I'm going to Taste the good that's taking an hour to be ready. We were not taking up any space for dine in costumers, I want raised to be rude. I'm upset at the way we were treated. The other lady tells me i told you 5 minutes; I wanted to tell her your 5 minutes actually mean 50 minutes so don't give customers u realistic time of when their food will be ready but I just did not want to stoop to her level. Never again stepping into that place, not worth the rudeness. 0 is my actual rating. I was polite and never treated them unkindly but that is how we were treated, suggestion hire new staff that knows how to treat customers! read more

For the first time, a form of culinary genius in Iraqi form has entered into my vocabulary: "Hallawlaw" read the plastic laminated menu in Times New Roman font right underneath other entries like 'kidney' and 'liver.' So what is "Hallawlaw", the inquisitive group and I asked in unison to the sweet but blatantly sarcastic waitress. She replied: "It's Hallowlaw! What of it?" She did not give a very convincing answer and we were left wondering what this curious dish was - so much so that we were all on our smart phones tracking it down. It barely registered and finally something came up: Hallawlaw = Sweetbreads. I had a feeling this was the case, and my instincts were right. "One Hallawlo please" - I barked at the waiter to the discerning of a giggly group of seven all in attendance of this Christmas Eve mid-morning meal. Many dishes were ordered and I would say that of the many restaurants we visited on this recent Detroit excursion, Najeeb Kabob House has to be one of my favorites. Najeeb Kabob House is a hole in the wall in an otherwise dismal plaza flanked by the likes of Subway and Little Caesar's Pizza right next door - so what exactly brought us here you might ask? The answer lies in an Iraqi dish of extraordinary legend: "Tashreeb Bagilla." When I describe this dish to anyone except Iraqi people, they think that it is the most nonsensical concoction that they have ever heard of - even to Arabs of other nationalities. But trust me, this dish works and can make for one absolutely satisfying and delicious vegetarian dish. So here it is: First of all you have a large bowl filled with stale pieces of pita bread that have been slightly toasted. The second layer is a generous portions of large peeled fava beans placed over the bread. Then the steamy broth from the fava beans is poured over top of all this just enough to soak up the bread pieces. A dash of dried mint is applied as well as some fresh onions and pickles, and then a fried sunny-side up egg is placed over the entire bowl along with the oil it is cooked in - the oil is key. I prefer it with onions soaked in pomegranate molasses. Once the egg is applied, you break the yoke so that it seeps throughout the dish while making sure the oil is generously applied. The result is a warm, hardy, filling, delicious dish that will satisfy all the senses - the soaked pieces of bread with a layer of oil and slight crisp, the soft and ever-so-slightly bitter fava beans, the crunchiness of the onions, the refreshing sensation of the crushed mint, all work together in perfect harmony. As I am told - this is a dish established by non-other than the Babylonians themselves in ancient times. And as I am constantly reminded, you have not eaten true Iraqi food unless you've had Tashreeb Bagilla. Incredibly enough, this was not the only excellent dish - some orders of Pastirma with eggs, Makhlama, and of course the Hallawlaw (which basically became the theme throughout this trip) were also ordered. Pastirma is basically a Arabian sausage usually made of minced lamb - it is an Arabicized word for 'Pastrami' - crazy. But also very delicious. Makhlama is usually a fried tomato and ground beef meat dish that can take on many forms but always keeps a consistent taste - dominated with cumin, salt, tomato, and spices and is eaten with small pieces of freshly baked bread. These dishes were great but the stand-out dish was indeed the Hallawlaw - the Sweetbreads. This is a dish that in most upscale restaurants will command a price of over $30 for maybe three tiny pieces. However, we were entertained with a gigantic plate with huge pieces of the sweetbreads which were chargrilled, slightly fatty with a faint mineral-y organ taste, they were perfect sandwiched in between the fluffy khobz bread with some fresh onions, tomatoes, and a little dash of sumac. I would literally fly back to Detroit just to have this dish again. The Iraqi tea that is served after the meal is excellent. It is clear that they spend a lot of time perfecting it in a good steel kettle with multiple chambers over coal embers for the heat - hot, sweet, with delectable hints of cardamom. It is an essential beverage after a heavy meal like this. This was a very inexpensive meal that soundly satisfied seven people. And as a reminder, this is a true hole in the wall kind of place that doesn't pretend to be anything other than a true authentic outlet into Iraqi cuisine. Don't expect any frills or culinary buzzwords and certainly don't expect a Zagat Rating or "People Love us on Yelp" sticker at the door - this is as real as real can get. And the true beauty of it all, is that it really tells the culinary story of Iraq in a perfect environment to enjoy time with friends and family. Also hats off to the staff - an incredibly friendly group of people who have dedicated their entire lives to ensure that this cuisine lives on to many other future generations. 5-Stars - Legendary read more
