Sheeba Restaurant - Fahsa and aqda and soup and bread - Middle Eastern Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

This restaurant is more that of an experience than a simple lunch or dinner break. The food was delicious! When I say that it was the best lamb (haneeth) I ever had, I am not exaggerating. Even tastier is the FAHSA! A must, must try. I went out with couple of friends and ordered the Sheba platter for 4. It came with fahsa, large rice and mandi chicken and lamb haneeth with galaba. I highly recommend to order the tanoor bread with the fahsa but it is an extra charge. The service was really really amazing. Very prompt, clean and professional. Our waitress was kind in helping us out. Even their busboy with the hair tie was extremely helpful and was checking up on us. My only minor issue is that the prices are a little high and the parking could be very difficult. Other than that, it's imperative that you have some delicious Yemenite food!!! Will be back for sure. read more

I was excited to finally get the chance to try Sheeba after hearing so many good things about it. We ordered the fahsa boiling meat dish and got a large platter of haneeth with lamb, chicken, potatoes and gallaba. The fahsa was good and the presentation of the boiling food in the clay pot is always nice, however the meat wasn't seasoned very well and had a very strong aftertaste that wasn't too pleasant. The haneeth was excellent: the meats were well prepared and seasoned and the rice was delicious. The service was actually better than most Dearborn establishments; our waitress Mariam was very attentive and helpful. We were definitely satisfied with the meal overall. I'm not sure I would call Sheeba my favorite Yemeni restaurant, but it's absolutely worth a visit. read more

The lamb fahsa is OUT OF THIS WORLD! It's also pretty cheap for the amount and quality of soup you get. The bread is great too. I promise you'll love this. Just be aware that the sauces that come with it are spicy. I'm docking a star because I came here for a salad with chicken the day after (I loved the lamb so much that I thought everything would taste that amazing lol), and it was extremely disappointing. The chicken was weird and not good at all, it had a strange texture and aftertaste. The waiters were nice but service was a bit slow some times. It's a cute cafe and that lamb will probably have me coming back even though I live far from here. read more

Sheeba Restaurant - Lamb haneeth - Middle Eastern Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

Amazing delicious food. The Sheeba for two is more than enough food when my boyfriend and I go. The lamb is so good, super tender, and falls off the bone. They do a good job at making it not taste gamey- my mom was visiting from out of state and when we took her here she was convinced it was pork. read more

Went here as part of a food tour led by the Arab American Museum in Dearborn. We sampled the Lamb Haneeth, Seltah (vegetable stew), and Adeni Tea. All of the food was delicious and the people who worked there were friendly and very informative. This restaurant specializes in Yemeni food, but they have many familiar foods like fattoush, kabobs, shawarma, etc. I plan to return for a full meal. read more

I went here to have a feast known only to the Sultans with my Mentor in life, Doc Russ, and would never be the same after stepping foot into this beaut of an establishment. Upon entering the restaurant I felt like I was immersed into paradise, and the staff was nice too. I consumed no less than 3 lbs of lamb on my way to the promise land. Doc Russ had been talking this up to be a life changing endeavor, and don't get me wrong - I was excited to eat an elite feast but I did not think my life would be changed. I was wrong. The following morning I felt like my motor had a clean reset. I especially noticed when I was finishing up my morning sprints at the riverfront. If you want to be a better human go to Sheeba. If you want an elite Yeminese meal, look no further than Sheeba. read more

This place has authentic Yemeni food that is delicious and amazing. Every item from the menu has flavor, the right amount of spices, and it is cooked for perfection. Everything on the menu is delicious and worth every single calorie. The Decor of this place gives you a little reality of the Yemeni cultural. Yemenis are known for their meat and this please make the best of meat that you will taste from all of the Arabic meat around town that you tasted. The meet will literally fall off the bone and will melt in your mouth like butter. You won't be chewing it for too long but the memory will last in your mind of how yummy that piece of meat is. Also, when you get to meat it comes with rice, and the rice is so delicious. read more

First the house salad looks like a 3 year old made it. Chopped iceberg lettuce fills the plate with a few tomatoes and cucumbers thrown on top. The dressing is some type of ginger dressing and was the best part or worse part depending on your taste. I suggest not ordering the house salad, go for the soup (lentil). The soup wasn't great, it was mediocre at best but way better than the house salad. We had the lamb fahsa, and it was amazing!! The bread costs extra by the way, (yes if you order hummus or anything else you have to buy the bread for $1 a piece) Now the bread tastes great but if you want to eat the fahsa with it you need 3-4 pieces so add that to the price. We also had the Haneth platter. It comes with an enormous portion of meat and rice, with very little else. The meats are very tender and tasty. But if you expect more than meat and rice you will be disappointed. I recommend getting the galaba, the meat was tender and the sauce tasty. The chicken haneth was also very good. The price is probably a little higher than most Dearborn spots and for no good reason. Service was so so. Our waitress was overwhelmed with several parties. Her descriptions of the food left us confused. The kids meals should be avoided. A 4 year old got nuggets and fries (I know it's ridiculous) and it was straight from the microwave. read more

There is no way to do as incredibly detailed a review as Daniel B, so I will default to my usual witty and to the point kind of review based on my own experience. Three words: get the bread! It is huge, chewy, homemade and thin. I grew up with a Lebanese-American grandfather and have never had Yemeni food before. It meets Lebanese on a few counts, such as hummus, shwarma, tabbouli and fattoush. But other dishes were unfamiliar and fun to try. All of the dishes on the menu reminded me of something their situ would make for a big holiday dinner. The chicken shwarma with rice platter was particularly good, the rice was colorful and buttery and the chicken pieces were moist and flavorful. The garlic sauce (toom) is spectacular. I would come here for just the bread and toom alone. It is the best toom I have ever had. Rich, whipped and smooth, without the garlicky hotness it can sometimes have. Nothing was too salty, a treat at middle eastern places. Salt is simply not needed as a flavor but sometimes you get a lot of it. Lookin' at you, Palm Palace. The tabbouli could use a few fistfuls more wheat bulgur, as I prefer it. But like all tabbouli, taking it home and letting it 'cook' in its juices and seasonings makes it far more chewy and edible the next day. The fattoush salad was one of the best I have had. The lettuce was cut into perfect sizes, the bread was nominal, not too much that by the end of the salad you have (bleah) soggy pieces. The sumac dressing was really good. I wished for more Lebanese style offerings but in their absence, I was able to try other things. Very clean place and friendly staff. read more

The Lamb Haneeth is labelled as their most popular dish... and for very, very good reason. The outside is charred and caramelized perfectly, but the meat falls right off the bones. The meat melts into your mouth, and the taste is extremely fragrant instead of gamey, as badly cured lamb meat tends to be. The dish came alongside a side of rice and some stewed veggies. The portion sizes here are huge, so beware. My group also go the lamb maslough (not sure on the spelling) and zobian (again, not sure on the spelling), and both were good. The Maslough is a stewed lamb dish and the meat also falls off the bones. The Zobian is like the Yemeni version of biryani, and has more of a cinnamon/cardamom taste as compared to its Indian counterpart. The lamb shanks was ordered from the Mediterranean side of the menu, and in my personal opinion, when you come to Sheeba's, you should stick to the Authentic dishes side. You really cannot go wrong with anything on that side. The lamb shanks were good, but didn't have the melt in your mouth texture of the haneeth and less flavorful. It also came with a ton of rice. Ok, at this point, let's talk a bit more about the rice. It's fragrant because I think they put some sort of olive oil over it, and extremely colourful. ALSO - do not forget to order the hot tandoor bread. It's fresh out the oven and is on the same level as naan. In fact, I like it better, because sometimes naan is almost too buttery and you just want to taste the heartiness that is amazing bread. This tandoor bread does wonders when paired with the hummus and baba ganoush. The baba ganoush is very smoky and great. The hummus is also good. We also got the chicken haneeth, which again, although good, pales in comparison to the lamb haneeth. The fattoush salad was great, flavorful and fresh. But when you come to Sheeba's, you're here for the meat. So, prep yourself to be a savage carnivore here. read more

Great food with even better service, environment was also very enjoyable, overall best meal I've had in a long time

So I really enjoy this place and their many variety of goat or sheep or whatever middle eastern people serve here. I love you guys for giving my tastebuds a rest from my wife's "cooking" if you can call it that! This place is different and I would recommend Coming here for sure. I gave it 4 not 5 stars just because I couldn't understand what was being said everyone talks really fast and I felt like I was in a rap concert!!! read more

This restaurant was amazing. We came here for an early dinner on a Friday night, the restaurant was huge and was just starting to usher in the dinner crowd. We were quickly seated and greeted. Our waiter was so interactive while giving us space. Having experience in the service industry I really appreciated that. We ordered the authentic platter for two, with the haneeth, saltah and mandi rice. Salad and sauce came with the platter. To start off with, the ginger dressing on the salad is beyond delicious. So unique for a middle eastern restaurant but at the same time so complimenting of the other flavors. The meet on the haneeth was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Fall off the bone and so so sooo tender. The saltah which is a mixture of veggies that come in a boiling platter to the table was a perfect topper for the rice. I ate until I could barely breathe. The prices are so reasonable and the location is easy to find. There is ample parking in the back and the service was quick and inviting. Definitely will be back MANY times during these winter months. No place compares to the hot meals at Sheeba. read more

The food was truly authentic. I had a rice combination with chicken and lamb. The bread is made fresh there and was amazing. The entire dinner included appetizers, soup and Fetouch (salad). Everything was fresh and delicious. However, the lamb was perfectly moist...it came off the bone : ) The decor also made the restaurant feel ethnic. Price is very reasonable a meal for three was under $50.00. Highly recommend this place. read more

The service was great. We started with large order of hummus which came with freshly made bread. Delicious!! We also ordered the falafels. Those were flat instead of round. They were also good. I had the lamb hateen (sp). It came with rice and potatoes. The rice was amazingly seasoned. They provided a side of a salsa type topping which totally enhanced the rice. The lamb was done to perfection. We followed up dinner with a piece of their special dessert with a cup of tea. Don't skip the tea. Over all our experience was delightful. They handed us a warm wash cloth at the end. Nice touch. We recommend this place to everyone and we will be eating here again read more

Tasty and authentic food. Locally recommend by my friend's Arabic colleague. Tandoori Fish is great, I usually ask for Sea bass but not Tilapia. Their Tandoori bread is freshly made too. Garlic sauce is unique than other middle-eastern restaurants. Always ask for garlic sauce, it goes well with any dishes(even bread!) Not a fan of sambusa here, it's too greasy. Should be drained longer after deep fried it. Besides, it taste super lamby. I don't eat lamb but I assumed that sambusa is made from beef, therefore I ordered it. I don't remember if later I asked the server that sambusa is made from lamb or beef. But if you are a person like me, someone who doesn't eat lamb, and afraid of certain beef dishes when it taste like lamb, maybe you would want to avoid the sambusa in the future. Or be sure to ask your server before order it. read more

There's a lot of promising middle Eastern restaurants to check out in the Dearborn area, but I keep coming back here. I've even brought my co-workers and out of town visitors! The menu looks very extensive, with many sandwiches, platters, shish kabobs, etc. There are lunch specials as well. Your meal typically includes a soup or salad and you can't really go wrong. I've tried a couple lamb dishes and mooched off of my friends' kabob dishes. Service is very attentive, although they get very busy during lunch hour. It's not really a quick lunch kind of place, as the food takes a little time to come out. The restaurant is beautiful, and it looks like there is a small private room available for events. read more

My wife and I came to Dearborn for the history and got the food as a bonus. Last night we didn't know where to eat so I searched on Yelp. The high ratings and glowing reviews made us want to give it a try. We arrived before Sundown during Ramadan so the restaurant was fairly empty. Our server explained everything to us as we had never tried Yemeni food before. He promised us we would love it and we did. I had a special lamb and rice dish from Yemen that was delicious. We also had lamb soup and a salad, I devoured those as well. As we were finishing, the sun went down and bunches of hungry people arrived. It was fun to share their joy of good food. Come and try the delectable Yemeni food, I promise you will love it. read more

People recommended that I try Yemeni food at this place. When I came there were only two other tables with seated with couples. It was not busy in the least. I was seated by the hostess.

Excellent food. We were n from out of town and went to this place. It was great. Highly recommend.

Came in tonight with my family from NJ and Chicago.. service was terrible. They burned the kids chicken nuggets so they had to make a new batch.. they also ran out of chicken.. so they gave us more lamb.. unfortunately we had a few people that don't eat lamb.. my nephew ordered a hummus and falafel sandwich.. it was the last thing to come out.. literally after everyone finished and we asked for it 3 times.. they have a call button.. but it didn't work when we pressed it. I have been to this restaurant a few times and it never disappoints!! The lamb haneeth is everything and I'm not even a huge lamb person! It is still sizzling when it comes to the table. Tonight we did the feast for 8 people.. everything was excellent.. the bread is so soft and delicious! The meat falls off the bone, so tender and cooked well. Lamb was crispy on the outside and succulent! The chicken for me was a little on the dry side and bland but a few others really liked it! The salad had a different kind of dressing on it and everyone either liked it or did not like it. The chutney that came on the side was good and fresh! The restaurant is quite large and has two different areas you can sit in.. the bathrooms are clean and are a one person stall. Note: there is no baby changing station! Decor is minimal but nice. Staff was very nice and helpful and went out of their way to accommodate us with 4 kids! Overall good place to come to for some delicious yemini food!! read more

I'm so glad that we have amazing Yemeni restaurants and that sheeba has 2 locations. I usually go to the west Dearborn location. It's huge so plenty of seating. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Food is top notch. The fahsah alone is worth going. But the lamb haneeth and bread is amazing. Even came for breakfast and it was delicious. The tea, adeni tea, and pomegranate juice are so good!! This is a wonderful restaurant and I go there all the time and highly recommend to everyone and anyone! read more

Totally rip off. They force you to order the platter and its not worth it. The amount of meat in their platter is less than half of the other places, like Malik Al-kaboob. Though the price is higher Service is not that good either. read more

I grew up and lived in New York my whole life. So I've been to the famous and renowned Yemen Cafe in Brooklyn, many times. I was passing by Detroit and this was one stop I had to make, as a lover of Yemeni cuisine. The setting is really nice and fancy. A great family setting. The host was really friendly and welcoming. I came with a friend, so we ordered a plate for 2, which was more like a plate for at least 3 people as it was such a large portion. The dish we ordered was called the Sheeba for 2. It consisted of 1 and a half portion of lamb haneeth (slow roasted lamb), lamb ghallaba (minced lamb meat with grilled veggies), rice, potatoes and okra. The lamb haneeth was hands down the best I ever had in my life. As a New Yorker, I can confidently say that this haneeth is better than the one at Yemen Cafe (which is excellent by the way). It was so well seasoned and the meat was just so tender. It melted off the bone when eating it. The ghallaba was such a nice compliment to the haneeth. The meat was really juicy. I really enjoyed the potatoes and the rice. The rice had a really nice buttery taste. It was just amazing. It was so much food, but totally worth it. I was mind blown at how good this dish was. We topped off our hearty meal with some good ole traditional Yemeni tea. This place is a must if you are in the Detroit area. I promise you, you won't be disappointed. Trust me. read more
