This place did not disappoint. We all shared all of our samples and got the same entrees as well. We all really enjoyed our company and dinner. Sadly we were so full there was no room for dessert. The restaurant seemed a bit cold with all the tile and woodwork but the service shone. She realized that us chefs just wanted the real deal and we got it... Highly recommend this place...

The food was outstanding. The lamb was incredibly tender, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The fresh bread, rice, and overall quality of the meal reminded me why Dearborn has become one of my favorite food destinations whenever I'm in Michigan. What made the experience even better was the service from Murad. From the moment I sat down, Murad was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. He got my food out quickly, checked on me throughout the meal without being intrusive, and before I left, he thoughtfully brought me a wonderful cup of tea to finish the evening. His warm smile, positive attitude, and professionalism made a great meal even more memorable. Restaurants can serve excellent food, but great hospitality is what keeps people coming back. Murad is a perfect example of that. If management is reading this, he's doing an outstanding job representing your restaurant. I'll be back every time my travels bring me to Dearborn.

Sarah was helpful since it was my first time here. She encouraged me to try some of their more popular items but also explained other options on the menu for now or next time. There is a good amount of seating. And everything was clean. As far as location goes, it's in a great spot right on Inkster Rd. Whether you're in the neighborhood, driving through, or coming from the hospital, this is an easy spot to get to with easy parking out front. Al Tayeb gives you a great taste of Lebanese food and flavors right in your backyard. I will come here again and bring friends.

I ordered from Kabob Bistro for my son's wedding shower yesterday and I'm so glad I did! This was my first experience with Kabob Bistro and everything from my initial order to the pickup to the preparation and presentation of the food was amazing! I was pleased with the portion size. I ordered for 50 guests and had plenty of food leftover. I received so many compliments from the shower guests on how delicious the food was and several folks asked where we had it catered from. A meal can make or break an event! Everyone raved about the delicious food at our event yesterday. Thank you so much! We will definitely order Kabob Bistro for future catering needs. As well as refer you to others. Sincerely, The Karpinski Family Livonia read more

We stumbled upon this place over the weekend, and while it had a nice ambience and wasn't too…read morecrowded for a Saturday evening, the overall experience was just average. They started us off with complimentary plain bread, which felt a bit basic without even a touch of garlic or flavoring. The place didn't have a dedicated drinks menu, but the server mentioned she could make anything we wanted, which sounded promising. However, the drinks didn't quite live up to expectations. The margaritas ($12) were quite diluted, and the $7 mocktails were underwhelming. For food, we ordered the Chicken Kabob Dinner, Shawarma Platter, and Spicy Man-Usha. Both the Chicken Kabob Dinner and Shawarma Platter came with two sides : we chose fattoush salad, Greek salad, and grilled vegetables. The grilled vegetables were done really well, and the shawarma platter was enjoyable. However, the chicken kabob was disappointingly dry, and the Spicy Man-Usha, despite sounding exciting, turned out quite bland. Overall, it was an okay experience, pleasant enough for a casual visit, but not something that would make us go out of our way to return.

Between the warm hospitality and consistently good food, LaPita is definitely a spot worth stopping by when you're in Dearborn.

Hire a busser, first and foremost. Walking into a dirty restaurant doesn't make for the best first impression. Sitting in it for forty-five minutes only lowers that impression. Our waitress was nice. This place is pretty pricey compared to a lot of restaurants around here. A lunch special was around $15 and came with entree, rice, and soup or salad. We ordered the deboned chicken lunch with rice and chicken lemon rice soup. My husband also got a lunch fattoush salad. Soup and salad came up quick. I really enjoyed the CLR soup. It was light and tangy and full of chicken. My husband loved his fattoush salad. Our entree came up not long after. The chicken, while plentiful, was way overcooked. The rice was warn in some spots and cold in others and had random crunchies throughout. Not good. A request for lemon helped the chicken, as did the garlic paste (toum) but still, it shouldn't have come out that dry to begin with. I think my favorite part of the meal was the fresh bread and toum. I probably won't be coming back. I much prefer the service and food at Baba's Grill when I'm looking for a lunch spot.
