Hands down the best Lebanese food around! It has a quiet atmosphere and nice decor, and the prices are reasonable. I eat there at lunch as it is super close to my job and $10 for fresh, delicious food is such a great deal! I usually get the chicken shawarma and crushed lentil soup and they are so good! Definitely a hidden gem. I highly recommend!

I've been back, and I've been further impressed. As I said, the next time I went, I'd try either lamb or beef, and quite frankly, I was more in a beefy mood, so I tried the lunch Shish Kebob entree, which is a $3 up charge from the 10-or-so $10 lunch entrees that are listed (lamb chops are also $3 extra). Absolutely worth the money I paid. Understand that with the lunch entrees, you may have your choice of two side dishes on the menu, of which there are several to pick from. I went with the crushed lentil soup today, as it's another of my baselines for Middle Eastern restaurants to be judged by. Now, crushed lentil soup is *never* going to be aesthetically pleasing to the eye...its very nature just means it's going to look sort of mushy and gloppy. Don't worry about it: it's *all* about the taste, and they do a nice crushed lentil soup here. Squeeze your nice wedge of lemon into your nice, thick broth, and you have a soup that tastes very nice on a cold winter's day. Pita bread was brought, and it's still not puffy, so that's about the only disappointment. It was still served warm, and totally consumed. Went well with the soup. The star of the show, though, was the shish kebob. Understand that it's not going to come the way you normally think that shish kebob will be served: there's no actual skewer. All of the ingredients are there on your plate: the tenderloin, the onion, the peppers, the tomato...but no stick in sight. I actually prefer it this way, and the rice (my other side choice) was on the plate as well. It's a nice presentation, and it's more elegant than having the skewer on the plate. I liked it better, anyway. The tenderloin, I must admit, came to the table looking a bit overdone than the medium I'd asked for. NOT TO WORRY! Cutting into the meat was so, so easy...this was just *perfect* tenderloin: so easy to cut, so tender, and it just melted in my mouth. Yes, there are a lot of spices, but they still work, and the beef's flavor is *not* overshadowed by them. Their chef (in this case, the mother of the owner) simply knows what they're doing. I ate every little bit of what I was presented, and while there was some leftover rice, it came home with me and wasn't wasted. My server, Jason, did a terrific job. Tipped him over 20% for his efforts. Welcoming, present without being intruding, helpful with suggestions. Bingo. On another note, and I realize that this is *totally* subjective, jazz music was being piped in above me (*not* that horrible, horrible stuff known as "smooth jazz"), and that really added to the atmosphere of the place. Nothing sets the mood for a nice lunch like some Coltrane, Monk, or various others. A nice touch. Finally, I was offered some burgul on my way out the door after having spoken with Melissa and her parents. What a lovely thing to do, as I'd never tried it, and the ingredients didn't sound like something I'd enjoy. I was wrong. Burgul was far better than anticipated and I have since eaten all of it. It's a great family accent in a high-end place. I'm really looking forward to going back for more of everything. Great stuff.

My wife is Lebanese so we are very critical, but this is hands down the best Lebanese food around. It is an upscale classy place, with authentic food, impeccable service and affordable wine. I rate this place a 10/10 and recommend it to anyone!

So I love Lebanese food and after reading all the reviews I felt I needed to try it. It looked like an office building which made me a little weary at first until I walked in. This place was beautiful. I sat at the bar since I was dining alone and didn't want to a wait for a server. They had a full bar with a decent wine list. I wanted to try everything on the menu, I settled for the fried kibbe to start which was actually filling, 4 decent size pieces. I opted to do the Moghrabiyeh Chicken.. It was so good, it had cous cous balls (Israeli style) and big chunks of chicken. The broth was thick bun not stew thick, I tasted a little cinnamon in there. It was amazing. I'll be back for sure and look forward to trying some new things like the lamb tongue!!

We came back after two days with our friend from Cleveland. 2 days back when I was at Mandaloun, I ordered Stuffed Zucchini, I was told, they ran out of it (at 6.30PM !!!!). I again ordered it yesterday, same reply by our waitress Sheri. It became joke among us. Two times in a row, same week!!!! We were expecting, some one from management to come and apologize. It did not happen. Detroit being capital of ME restaurants, our out of town guest wanted kanafeh as dessert. They did not have it. Overall major disappointment during this visit. Food was good, but I did not wanted to star it this time, but Yelp would not accept review with our starring, so 3 star.

Back when this culinary team was running Le Chef, it used to be my favorite spot to run out for an excellent under the radar lunch. It was absolutely one of my favorite Lebanese spots in Michigan. We went recently for dinner and they appear to be ironing out a few kinks in the transition. They seem to have kept the menu intact and I sprang for the lamb tongues, hummous and fattoush salad. Hummous was slightly bland, needed a wake up call of lemon juice/salt. Pita bread served with it did not appear to be freshly baked. Lambs tongues were as remembered, very good. Fattoush was above average, love the copious mint, but missing something overall. Should have sprang for the chicken (which was the best I've ever had at Le Chef). Had a wonderful glass of Musar Blanc. Good service. Main criticism, besides some of the uneven food, was the space itself. Besides being in the first floor of an office building, its a thoroughly modern space, with strange neon lighting at the bar, and puzzling statues all around. Could be the interior of an Applebees on the U.S.S. Enterprise. Absolutely nothing to relate whatsoever to the beauties of Lebanon itself (Phoenicia, Le George come to mind). All together 3.5 if I could. But I'll probably be back to try that chicken...
This is an upscale Lebanese restaurant. What? (Screech of tires...) Yes, this is not your corner family style Lebanese place. We are talking about uptown presentation and uptown prices. I am talking about white starched tablecloths and a nice wine list. My wife and I were with another couple and gave the place a try. I really liked it. Everyone ordered different things and we shared some side dishes. It was all very good. I had the lamb shank which was ample and tasty and my wife had the stuffed zucchini. I especially enjoyed the dessert called Ashta, which was a creamy preparation of starch and honey served with bananas. That was terrific. If you want to try a place that is a few cuts above your local hummus and pita bread joint, this is the one to try.

We were promptly greeted at the door and seated. Everyone was very friendly and our waitress Sherri was on top of everything, quick, an very attentive as well. The atmosphere was awesome, I loved the decor and the bathrooms as well (also very clean). We ordered Baba ganouj- excellent and came with fresh hot pita bread, fried Kibbee -excellent, the quails- excellent and meaty, and the Phoenician fries were unbelievable and covered with garlic, lemon and cilantro YUMMY. The samki harra (spicy fried cod) was also excellent, but really not spicy at all, loved that it was served on top of fried pita with lemon- truly lebanese. Moving on to the makaneh (lebanese sausages), these were ok, but room for improvement, like in the sauce maybe adding some lemon to the oil, or pomegranate sauce (dibbus remain) would have been perfect. The cabbage salad was a bit bland, needed more lemon and garlic dressing, but an easy fix. The aashta dessert was unbelievable and served with banana- I honestly can't remember the last time I had aashta so amazing! Also, I believe the liquor license is in the works... All that food,along with our 3 drinks cost $99, and we do have a lot left over. So 4 stars for now, but I have high expectations for this restaurant and can't wait to go back and try many more things... Will update then!

Four of us visited Mandaloun Bistro for dinner last night. We had a 6:30PM resv, arrived at 6:25PM and were welcomed by the hostess and directed to a public coat rack in the lobby. We were seated immediately. The dining room was not busy. Maybe 4-5 other tables were occupied. When we departed, maybe ten tables were occupied. On my prior two lunch visits, "rocking" chairs was a problem. Not tonight. I hope that this matter is indeed, permanently fixed. I also had prior problems with the Guest WiFi password ... nobody knew it. The password is their phone number, without the dashes. Now, even with a solid wireless connection, I could not get beyond their router, to the internet. There were a couple of trivia details that we wanted to look-up ... fail. I seldom order alcohol with lunch. When asked for our drink order last night, I learned that Mandaloun has not *yet* secured a liquor license. I failed to inquire if they permit customers to BYOB. If wine:liquor is important; call ahead to determine if this matter is remedied. We shared two appetizers; Ful Medamas and Calamari. The Ful Medamas was very good. The four pitas were warm and fresh. I will order it again. The Calamari? I was expecting crisp, golden rings of goodness. We were served seven calamari sticks, on a bed of shredded cabbage. Not what I was expecting. The preparation was perfect and the taste was good. I just kept getting flashbacks to my childhood introduction to seafood ... being Mrs. Paul's Fish Sticks. I just cannot get past "fish sticks." I will not order again. Our entrees included: - Baked kibbe. Excellent. - Lamb's tongue & dandelion greens (two appetizers). Excellent. - Stuff eggplant. Excellent. - Roasted stuffed lamb w/rice. Good. I don't grasp the appropriateness of "stuffed." It was shredded, over a bed of brown rice, nuts, raisins & gravy (on the side). It was tasty, but a tad dry (over-cooked?) I will not order again. No desserts were ordered, but it did reinforce a persistent service problem. Our waitress seemed to struggle with basics. We didn't recognize one of the desserts she mentioned (Ashta? Ashtar?) and inquired, "what is it?" She stammered for maybe 10 secs before finally getting out the word: pistachios. Not particularly enlightening. She certainly did not sell the dish. Other service oddities: She tried to place the entrees before clearing the appetizers. The tables are not THAT spacious, and she seemed flummoxed how-to proceed. We suggested clearing the appetizers, no cogent response or action. Another server noticed/overheard and immediately came to her rescue. Good teamwork. She did offer to split the check. Hurray! I wish more places would do this - and do this without grimacing. Will I return? Yes.

I have one consistent problem with Mandaloun Bistro - deciding what to order! If only I had had at least one dish from them that was disappointing, it would be so much easier! But I have not. Their lunches are a great value ($10 gets you a wrap, side item, and a drink; for $12 you get an entree, 2 sides, and a drink). Service is fast and courteous. While everything that I've tried there is fantastic, my top recommendations would be shish tawook and baba ghanoush. If you stay for dessert, they have this delicious dessert (but I can't remember the name) that is served in a martini glass. It has pudding banana, almonds, and more.

Just got home from having lunch with a group of ladies Jason was our server. He could not have been any nicer. Not pushy like at some places and totally understood the menu and how food was prepared. Lunch is an awesome deal will go back again everyone enjoyed their meals. Very happy with the place and it's so upscale looking except for the prices! Be sure to ask for Jason.

I've been here a few times with my hubby. It's. So. Damn. Good. All the food is crazy fresh, just like my Grandpa used to make. Their Fattoush salad is phenomenal. Other favs were the Shish Kabob, Fried Kibbee, and Hummus. I had to stop hubby from licking the leftover Baba Ghannouj off the plate. Food is reasonably priced and we always take home plenty of food. Add the top notch decor, and this is quickly becoming one of my favorites in the area

A group of five of us women had a delightful lunch today at Mandaloun Bistro. The restaurant is beautiful and very relaxing. The music was playing softly and our server Jason was extremely kind, courteous and efficient. We each ordered a complete lunch from the menu and most of us, after eating our fill, had food left over to take home. The pita bread was freshly made and warm. The Baba Ghanouj eggplant appetizer was as good as I've ever had. The marinated beef tenderloin shish kabob was cooked just as I ordered it and was extremely tender and delicious. The Tabbouleh salad was a perfect accompaniment to my meal. For dessert I ordered (and brought home) something I'd never had before but will certainly order again. I do not remember its name but it had sliced bananas and honey and a creamy custard and was quite delicious. We all agreed that we will definitely return to Mandaloun Bistro.

I've known about this place for a while now, but to those who don't know much about it, it's really easy to miss! Had no one ever told me about this place, I would have never been able to find it on my own by driving! Just so you know, the restaurant is in a business park called Bingham Farms just south of 13 mile on Telegraph. Thankfully that wasn't the case, but FYI they are talking to the owners of the building to create signage on the façade and possibly out towards Telegraph. Onto the food. I came here with a colleague of mine, and since it was her birthday lunch, I let her do the pickings. She wholeheartedly recommended the shish tawook, and now I see why. For lunch, the portion was very generous, at 6 large pieces of juicy and tender chicken. FYI for lunch you get a choice of two sides with plates at $12, and 1 for wraps at $10. For my two sides, I chose their crushed lentil soup that was fragrant and had great texture. I liked that there was enough chunky texture without being too thick and mushy. Make sure you squeeze the lemon onto it; it brings out the flavors of the spices. My other choice was baba ghanouj and it tasted great. What I liked most was that you could actually taste the eggplant and not just tahini, which I've come across at other Middle Eastern restaurants. There was a great balance and the consistency was spot on. A light drizzle of olive oil rounded out the flavors. My colleague had the same but with hummus instead and it was great too. Pita bread was fresh and hot, but we only received 4 pieces. Next time I'll have to request more because it was yummy. Our waitress Quansea was wonderful in every way and I love her name! I would love to have her be my waitress again! She was timely in getting our orders placed, and she checked up on us just enough. Overall, this isn't your whole-in-the-wall place, and the décor is minimal and tastefully designed to reflect the Israel/Lebanon aesthetics and cultural traditions. Make reservations, especially if you have larger parties or you anticipate going during the lunch rush, or you'll risk having to wait a while. I look forward to going back, and taking Husband with me. Sign up for their specials and newsletter online to receive coupons. Totally worth it!
