Al Ameer - Dearborn (MI)

5 /5 Raz Lazer: Al Ameer was fantastic. We visited from Toronto for a wedding in Dearborn and had a great experience. The kababs and chicken liver came in good portions, and the service was excellent, our server Malik was very pleasant and attentive. We appreciate the quality food and service, and hope to return soon!

5 /5 mRa: Al Ameer Restaurant in Dearborn sets the standard for classic Lebanese dining. The kefta kabob was juicy and perfectly seasoned, with that signature charcoal flavor that makes every bite irresistible. The lamb chops were tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection—rich without being heavy. Each dish felt fresh and thoughtfully prepared, true to tradition yet vibrant in taste. The warm and attentive staff made the whole experience feel like being welcomed into a friend’s home.

5 /5 Mohammad Amin Roshani: We tried Al Ameer and overall had a good experience. The fresh naan and garlic sauce were excellent as a starter and set a strong first impression. The kabab was perfectly seasoned and very juicy, easily the highlight of the meal and probably the best kabab I’ve had in Metro Detroit so far. The kufta was good with a slightly different, enjoyable flavor, while the tawook was just okay in comparison. I highly recommend the kabab. The staff were mostly kind and helpful, although one person was a bit impatient while taking our order. The baklava tasted good but did not seem very fresh. Despite these minor issues, I would definitely return, mainly to order the kabab again.

5 /5 Barb Muzyk: My husband and I both worked near Dearborn at different times and used to have lunch at Al Ameer so weve been familiar with the restaurant for over a decade. The food is always excellent and since we retired we dont go there often enough so this year we decided to go there for Thanksgiving. My husband is a meat eater. I am not. We were both able to get food we loved. We had lentil soup, hummus, and a feta Fatoush salad. For my main course had majadra, a dish made with lentils, carmalized onions and rice. My husband had something with meat. I think it has chicken, beef and lamb. He said it was excellent. For dessert I had baklava. Everything was excellent. Portions are generous and we had enough leftovers for three meals. The restaurant is very pretty and the staff is always very friendly. Malik, our server was professional, polite, accommodating, friendly and a lot of fun to talk to. He was our server and our dinner companion. We also spoke with a very nice young lady named Zahraa for a few moments. She shared that shes in high school and wants to become a doctor. The food, the atmosphere and the company of Malik and Zahraa made for an excellent Thanksgiving dinner. Sure, it wasnt traditional, but I dont eat meat so Im really not into turkey anyway. I do love Middle Eastern food, though, and Al Ameer has excellent food. Its my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant. The restaurant is clean and the ladies restroom was tastefully decorated and immaculate. Thats important to me. I took a lot of pictures, including the entire menu, so you can see everything they have to offer. Thank you, Malik and Zahraa, for making our dining experience so enjoyable.

1 /5 Zeinab Alsaidi: First and foremost the service is horrible, and to the owner just to let you know there is a girl with the letter L is a very rude person. She says sorry only to continue arguing and making excuses for not properly making sure the food is how the customer wants it, not how she wants it. I don’t want her to get fired or anything, just to adjust her attitude at work and have better communication skills. I work and do the same job she does and it gets just as busy, and I check everything single order to make sure it’s what the customer asked for, when a person asks for medium rare lamb chops you make sure that the cook made it right, and if it’s not right you send it back and get it right before the customer gets it. Not burnt to a crisp, then proceeds to say that’s how she likes it and eats it, I don’t care how you like it, I ordered it a specific way because I like to eat it like that. There is no excuse to not properly make sure that the customer is getting what they ask for. And I honestly don’t know or think that the owner actually cares for his business if he allows this kind of service from his employees to his paying customers. But I guess whatever floats your boat. And please tell me after seeing the picture, even if you like your meat cooked well done if you would still eat this piece of charcoal passed on as meat. I got the order remade and checked it before I left and I was finally done right. But why I wrote this was because of her arrogance. But she likes it that way, and I guess I should to. But sorry….
