I really wanna love this place, but I can't. Now I can understand places being a "hole in the wall", but updating and cleaning should be done at some point. I came here for lunch and left disappointed. I ordered their bowl with chicken shawarma. Online it says you can choose other beats but the lady only gave me beef or chicken shawarma. They also said they have two rices, it was only yellow rice. The yellow rice texture was way off. It was hard like they didn't add enough water for it to cook. It was also old and cold. The vegetables were not many to choose from as I liked. The chicken shawarma was old, very dry and burnt like it's been there for a days and not getting used often. Their garlic sauce was very chunky too like it was almost spoiled. I did try my food. The sad thing is the flavor was all there. It was just not fresh. But the meat was seasoned well. Pricing was 13.99$ for the bowl. There was one person working that I seen. They were not mean, but wasn't friendly either if you know what I mean. Maybe they were tired. read more

Had this place cater for work. Chicken Shawarma, beef shawarma, falafel shawarma. Definitely nothing special, quite average shawarmas. Their shawarma's don't stand out compared to other Mediterranean places. To have it in its name, I'd expect better. It is not bad, just nothing I would go out of my way for. Out of the three the chicken shawarma was the best tasting. read more

Good food. Hadn't been here in a couple years but the food is just how I remembered. Shout out to Tony. Excellent service.

Food is nasty and expensive. I think the key is that you go there after lunch time so they have used up all the leftovers so you don't have to eat hummus that taste like a week old and pita bread that is bone dry like a napkin. Otherwise I dont know how people can give them good reviews. read more

Shawarma Grill - Kitchen - Mediterranean Near Me - Southfield, Michigan

I come here quite often for a quick, healthy and delicious lunch. The fattoush salad with chicken shawarma is definitely my go to. It's choose your own adventure on the veggies which I love. The veggies and shawarma are always fresh and their fattoush dressing is my favorite around. Would recommend to anyone who wants a hearty lunch. For the price, quality and portions you really can't lose. The service is always good too! read more

Was extremely disappointed. It was hardly filling at all with little meat, and almost no dressing which made it extremely dry what a disappointment compared to excellent Bucharest Grill, chicken Shawarma. read more

Decided to stop by since I was in the area. The restaurant was about to close early so I was one of their last customers. Service was quick and very friendly. Also the prices were okay. I got a chicken shawarma entree (chicken, rice, and a side salad with garlic and 2 pita breads) for about $15.99 + tax and the portions were big. However, the food was just okay. The food was lukewarm and not fresh, but I did come in at closing so I got the last of the preparations for that day. Also the dressing for the salad was not tasteful at all. The food is not terrible but it's better shawarma spots in Metro Detroit. read more

Continuing our exploration of restaurants near our hotel we had a late lunch at Shawarma Grill. We used to regularly dine at a similar restaurant in Sterling Heights and thought SG might be a good replacement for this side of town. They are open for dine in as well as take out with limited seating capacity. We had studied the photos, reviews, and menus and had a pretty good idea of what we might order before we arrived. I wanted what I always ordered at the other place: Chicken Shawarma Wheat Pita with Garlic Sauce and assorted veggies. While some places have the chicken pre-sliced in a warming bin, here it is freshly sliced when ordered! It was then rolled, wrapped, and put on the grill for a few minutes. My wife had recent oral surgery and she has been on a liquid and soft food diet and chose the Curry Stew. The verdict is in and I'm certain that we will be back to try more menu items! Good food, good service, good portions, and reasonable prices! read more

Shawarma Grill - Chicken shawarma - Mediterranean Near Me - Southfield, Michigan

Great food at great prices. I work nearby and it's a popular place for people in my office to go. My husband loves it too. I usually get the chicken shawarma, but my co-worker (who's Arabic) loved the shish tawook. It's set up like a Subway sandwich kind of place. Go in, pick your bread, your meat, veggies, sauces, and they prepare it in front of you. Very fast and inexpensive. They serve Pepsi fountain drinks and also an assortment of middle eastern bottled drinks in a refrigerator. Nice friendly staff. Good food, fast, friendly, and cheap! What else could you ask for? read more

DON'T BE DECEIVED BY PICTURES!!!!! Omg don't ever order from here...We ordered 6 shawarma sandwiches (an assortment of chicken and beef shawarma) and a rice bowl. Have you ever had salty shawarma? Well that's how they make it here. Every single sandwich both chicken and beef was loaded with sodium and the meat was TOUGH! Also the rice bowl was way too overpriced. $10 for a bowl that used to cost $6.95 is unacceptable especially given the small size of the bowl container. The person who ordered the rice bowl remarked that even the hummus and tabbouli salad was salty....like how's that possible? read more

My job sent me to Detroit for work and on the way into the office from the airport me and my coworkers stopped here and we were glad we did after we got our food. The initial greeting was a bit rough as we didn't know what we wanted and needed help and explanation (first timers) and they seemed annoyed kind of. But once all 3 of us ordered and received our food it was absolutely delicious. I ordered a chicken bowl and it was seasoned to perfection. The spicy rice was not spicy at all though. And my coworkers also loved their dishes as well. One ordered a wrap and said it was really good. read more

As soon as I walked in I knew that this was going to be good. Tons of flavor and the portions do not disappoint.

I love the Subway style food here. Ive ordered twice. The customer service is amazing. They are so kind and polite. The food is always fresh. Ive only ordered the chicken tawook, which doesnt have any particular flavor, its just ok. The garlic butter could also use a little more flavor, it tastes like white butter with no garlic, but its an ok spot. read more

This review is for carry out. Hubby and I shared an order of hummus and we both got chicken shawarma sandwiches. The hummus was A-OK, but the chicken in the shawarma sandwiches was dry as dust. read more

Food was very cold. The beef Shawarma didn't taste really well. French fries were soggy. Nothing seem really fresh.

Awesome place!! Friendly, delish and cheaper than usual. Beef kufta was so good. They added all kinds of veggies too, very nice people!! Their lentil soup was with some noodles that blended in really well with the lentil itself. I will be back! read more

I've been using Shawarma Grill really frequently to cater our business in-service luncheons around town, and each time I'm met with rave reviews about their food. The very first time we ordered a platter of chicken shawarma sandwiches they came with a plastic lid on top that ultimately steamed the sandwiches. I'd recommend that if you do order a sandwich platter that you promptly remove the lid. That said, I've tilted to ordering the meat and rice platters which are FANTASTIC, and without the worry of steaming the food. Their saffron rice is amazing, each of the 4-5 types of meat included are loaded with great flavors, and they give you plenty of garlic sauce and accoutrements to go around. I haven't dined-in yet but on what we've had delivered I think Shawarma Grill is a solid contender if you're looking for some really great Middle-Med treats. Pro Tip: Grub Hub delivers pretty much wherever you might need a catering (or personal) order to go, for a nominal fee. read more

From out of town and Yelp helped me find this place. For someone not familiar with this style of food, the samples helped greatly along with the extremely helpful staff. Chose the shared plate, hummus and soup. All was fantastic and couldn't believe the low prices. Highly recommend giving this place a try, just wish they had one in Portland, Oregon. read more

If I'm buying a lunch, chances are I'll end up here. This is one of the few places off of Northwestern where you can actually get a decent meal for less than $10! It's set up like a Subway except for Shawarma sandwiches. You can get your type of pita, meat, and fillings, and can combo it up with either rice, soup, fries or hummus. It gets busy during the lunch rushes, so be prepared to wait a little bit. But if you want to call ahead, they offer that! read more

Cheap, fresh, fast and delicious. The chicken shawarma was amazing!!! Very friendly staff and an awesome find.

Ok I'm from Boston where admittedly we don't have a large population of people from Iraq/ Middle East. But, we do have a lot of middle east restaurants....... But none that know how to use spices like this. And their garlic sauce was superb. I had spiced rice with curry, and the best chicken tawook! And onions, black olives, and excellent tomatoes And excellent round pita type bread, warm. All for $9. Then their lentil soup was hot hot, and extremely flavorful. I'll be back every time we're here. read more

I'm not sure how this place has such a high overall score... Food was okay, but honestly the inside looked/felt rundown and wasn't very clean at all. I'm not really paranoid about cleanliness, but I almost left without ordering and probably should have thinking back on it. read more

I try to go to a restaurant multiple times before i write a fair review. And i just wanna say that Shawarma Grill on Northwestern highway deserves some love. They're kinda like the Iraqi chipotle where you can build your own shawarma sandwich (in pita bread, tortilla, or their special shamoon bread) or you can build your own rice bowl. They got these nifty little plastic platters that are divided into compartments. You pick whether you want the rice bowl (plain rice or seasoned rice) or the sandwich (choose your bread), then you choose your protein (chicken shawarma is my preference, my brother and friends get a mix of chicken and beef). Then you pick which veggies you want on there, which sauces or dressings. The meat is flavorful, the veggies are fresh. Overall great sandwich. A few other places have this model too. But this place TASTES GOOD and THE PORTIONS FOR THE PRICE is why i keep coming back. They always load it up with meat every time and i absolutely love it. Every other restaurant in the world is penny pinching and getting stingy but not Shawarma Grill. They do it right and I hope they continue to do so. I live within 5 minutes of 5 other arab food establishments but I keep driving further to come to shawarma grill instead. You get the most bang for your buck here and the meal is enjoyable. On top of that, the service is good. Every employee I've encountered is nice and patient. Never had a hard time with any of them. Last sunday when I went, i didnt want my fries inside my sandwich but on the side. The girl at the counter thought I wanted a full side order of fries. But she realized the mistake and took it off my bill. Much appreciated home girl (sorry i forgot the name) They also have other entrees and combo platters which seem like a great deal for the price but I havent ordered them yet. I will eventually though read more

There's absolutely no point of having an online menu if you're just going to end up putting whatever toppings. Nonetheless, I was optimistic about trying my shawarma, but it was still sub-par. For anyone going, I would recommend going in and not calling in. Please update menu. read more

Really good Shawarma wish they were closer. Will go back when in Detroit area. A++++++.

They Earned a New Customer ! I ordered take-out Saturday 9/8/2018 late in the evening. I ordered the Combo for 2, and wow they give you a lot of food for your $$. The combo for 2 is actually enough food to feed 3 hungry adults and a medium size dog ! I was one adult short of 3... needless to say, I had leftovers for breakfast, lunch & dinner the next day ! The food was delicious, the grilled chicken had a good charbroiled / grilled flavor to it ! The yellow rice and everything else was delicious. I also purchased an authentic grape (I think) soda, made in the UAE, from their fridge / cooler. It was sweet, delicious and probably unhealthy... everything a soda should be !! As I drank it, i fantasied I was enjoying this cold delicious drink after a long trek through a sandy desert near Dubai... then I looked outside my kitchen window and realized I was still in Michigan :-( read more

I LOVED this place. Came here last night on a whim, and was not disappointed. The lentil soup is probably one of the best I've ever had. I did try the chicken lemon rice and wasn't that big on it. The shawarma is very good, and can choose whatever toppings you want. If I find myself back in the area, I'd come back for sure. read more

This great restaurant resides in an unassuming strip mall next to Guitar Center on Northwestern Hwy. in Southfield. I've driven by many times but never stopped in until tonight. It had good reviews on Yelp so my wife and I gave it a go. The owner waited on us and was extremely helpful. You could tell he takes pride in his food having his really nice cook provide us with sliced samples. He mentioned that everything is fresh and made daily, not frozen. I've never seen a rotisserie stacked chicken like this. Usually it's just a whole piece that rotates and gets sliced. It was awesome. Also kind of unique is how you can mix and match everything, even the type of bread you want. You can dine in or take out. Nothing fancy but nice and clean with big screen TV's. Great for lunch or dinner. Sandwiches are very reasonable with dinners around $12.00. We spent $25.00 because I wanted to try so much. So give this place a try. You'll be happy you did. read more

If you are looking for a good chicken shawarma, DO NOT eat here!! Decided to try this place for the first time today. Came around dinner time and ordered a chicken shawarma and fries to go. Their shawarma was extremely poorly put together, cold, and their chicken was dry and not seasoned. Just low quality in general. Their fries were barely seasoned, and cold as well. Just an overall low quality eating experience. If you are looking for a good chicken shawarma in the area there are plenty of better options, but I do not recommend this place. read more

This is probably the worst middle eastern food I've ever had. Had a shish tawook sandwich with hardly any meat in it, and with not much flavor. The hummus was smothered in oil and with a strong lemon taste. Really underwhelming. I've been all over metro Detroit and ypsi-arbor and this was the crappiest I've had. read more

Complete ass holes! I ordered from them thru grub and it says they have there own delivery people , so I call them to see if they are still delivering to me . The man who picked up the phone sounded very annoyed saying " we don't grub hub we don't grub hub, call back" so yep done with them read more

One of my favorites for a great beef shawarma sandwich. Fresh, delicious and high quality ingredients. Very reasonably priced!

I love the concept here - it's like Subway for shawarma! Pick your pita, pick your meat, pick your toppings and sauce and you get a perfectly customized sandwich. Very affordable prices as well, with decent size sandwiches for about $6! I would have given 5 stars but knocked one off for cleanliness (or lack thereof). The place just seemed dirty like they never clean the counters and the 'out of order' iced tea containers next to the fountain pop were loaded with a layer of dust on top (in plain view). If the front of house was this dirty, makes me wonder about the kitchen. But the food is really good. read more

Called ahead of time to make sure wasn't closing, get there at 7:35 and the lady at the front door locks it before i can walk in and hides in the back.
