    a man eating a slice of pizza
    Nael Z.

    This place was real good! Everything was made fresh to order. If you are in the mood for some traditional manakeesh in the Dearborn Mi area this Is the place. I took one star away because of the Indoor seating area. We got cheese, cheese with meat, and cheese with Zaatar. But the owner was nice and accommodating.

    I This place is something special. It feels like eating in Lebanon. Everyone who comes in to speak in Arabic and it's very family oriented you think you're back home. I love that you definitely have to have their pies. Their zaatar is something special.

    Hole in the wall bakery that dishes out great pies. We tried turkey w/ cheese, plain cheese and of course their namesake zaatar with cheese. Among these zaatar was our least favorite but still pretty good. Honestly I would have loved a bit more zaatar as the cheese mellowed its flavor. Maybe next time i will try plain zaatar

    Pepperoni roll

    One of my favorite bakeries. Everything is always fresh and the employees are super sweet. I'm picky about my cheese manoushi (cheese pie). I don't like the bread so thick that I can't taste the cheese and I definitely don't like places that cheat and put a bit of cheese on a lot of bread and this place does it just how I like it. Bonus tip: get akawi cheese on mashrouha (very thin &crispy)bread. Yummo!!

    Heaven in every bite

    Unreal from a kid that never gets his Lebanese any more. Just like my uncle Louie's bakery - keftah, spin and meat pies, just killer.

Luckily the family styled restaurant was not busy. The service was wonderful....The waitresses wore head coverings that framed their eyes and smiles beautifully. Our waitress and another lady brought us large heavy plates, with large portions of food. We felt as if we were being served at a family gathering. The hummus was smooth and light. Perfect! All the meats were perfectly cooked, as was all else. The lamb chops were perfectly marinated, grilled, and tasted fabulous. I usually do not order lamb because of the gamey aftertaste. The light salad of mixed greens was wonderful. We ordered an appetiser along with our beverages before ordering our meal. We loved the basket of unique puffed small circular bread. We knew we ordered too much food but we were curious about the cuisine. There were plenty of leftovers which we enjoyed the next day. Our only complaint was that we likely wouldn't find a gem like this back in California

One of my friends suggested this…read morerestaurant because it was open on a Monday and we all thought Mediterranean was a good choice. Parking is tricky in this area of downtown so I parked further away and walked. The exterior of the restaurant is what draws your eye first - it's very welcoming. Once inside, you are surrounded by high ceilings, beautiful decor, and spacious seating. We were seated at a table next to the open wall-window so it felt like outside (they do have outside seating as well). Our server was highly knowledgeable about both the drink and food offerings. She made lots of suggestions and helped us to make our choices. For a drink, they made me a Mule - it didn't have as much ginger beer as a typical Mule but that was okay - it was very refreshing. We started with hummus as an appetizer for the table. They offer different toppings with it but we went with the basic that came with pita and a small side of tuom. They make fresh pita all night long so it was hot when it arrived. Their hummus is the most fluffy and creamy I've ever had. It was a taste delight! I chose the Shish Tawook for my entree. The chicken was grilled and smelled amazing! It came with a few vegetables, rice, and a small side of tuom. It was so good! Due to the freshness of all the food, I did not feel weighed down or listless after eating, which is a good sign of healthy prepared food. Now that I know of another great choice in Detroit, I'll be bringing family and friends to this place in the future. The ambience was warm and welcoming, service was top notch, and the food was amazing!

    Al Fawwal is a new Lebanese breakfast restaurant that opened up a couple of months ago on…read moreGreenfield Rd. We saw the signs going up late last year and only recently had a chance to drop by. It's always nice to see another place that specializes in breakfast/brunch! We stopped in close to noon and found a small shop with around 8 booths worth of seating. There were only two tables with customers at the time but a couple more groups trickled in later. Service is super friendly here - we sat down, ordered and our food came out pretty quickly. Hummus Bil Tahina ($7) - Nice creamy hummus, fresh tasting. The hummus here is a bit heavier on the tahini vs. some other places. This is topped with fresh tender, piping hot and steaming chickpeas, and a nice fresh olive oil that's just the slightest bit peppery. The olive oil here tastes much fresher than most other restaurants around the area. Fatteh Bil Laban w/ Ras Aasfour ($14) - I totally misjudged what ras aasfour is - when I googled this before going in, I thought it was going to be Lebanese-style mini ground beef meatball stew, but this turned out to be straight pan fried lamb. The construction is essentially a layer of super tender chickpeas, topped with fried pita chips, a garlicky and tangy yogurt, then a very gamey lamb flavored oil (the oil they use to fry the lamb), and finally toasted slivered almonds and the aforementioned ras asfour. While I don't usually like lamb, the meat was actually not gamey at all and I honestly thought it was beef at first. It wasn't until I dipped into the rest of the bowl that I found that the oil drizzled on top is super gamey and the taste permeates everything underneath. If you like lamb, you will love this dish. All the ingredients used in this fatteh are on the liquidy side, so the pita chips get very soaked and lose their crunch. Batata Harra ($7) - These potatoes were undercooked. We heard the chef frying everything up, but I guess they still weren't cooked long enough? The insides were not fluffy and instead were on the hard side. The exterior had no crisp whatsoever. The potatoes were tossed with red pepper flakes, adding a bit of spice, and fresh cilantro and garlic, giving an herbal pungency. I also found a bit of acidity possibly from the addition of lemon juice. As with a classic Lebanese breakfast, you get pita and a plate of fresh veggies and pickles to eat everything with. The pita is standard commercial pita probably from a local bakery. Another patron was asking about bread and the waitress said the oven was down, so maybe they usually have fresh pita? The veggies included sliced tomatoes, cucumber pickles, turnip pickles, fresh radish, onion, mint, and even some Lebanese green olives. Yum! A very nice accompaniment. On the table are the usual salt, pepper, sugar, and olive oil, as well as a bottle of pomegranate molasses. We asked the waitress and she said that people enjoy drizzling it on liver and on baba ghanoush. As a side note, this is one of the few restaurants around the area that serves complimentary bottled water. Most other places charge a dollar or two per bottle. The Lebanese breakfast classics at Al Fawwal are pretty good. It's a good choice if you want to expand your breakfast repertoire.
