      Just had a luncheon catered from here. The food was really good, all of it having great flavor. There was nothing bland about this food. A very nice display of food with a healthy and tasty dose of veggies.

      I'll definitely be checking out this place in person. I definitely recommend them for your catering needs as well.

      Thank you Royal Kabob! You did a great job!

      Friendly service combined with delicious food... I gave this place five stars! Very good and very authentic Arabic food. We had some hummus with Shawarma, some grape leaves and a couple of falafel sandwiches. Everything was excellent! And their fresh baked bread is delicious! I highly recommend!

      Standard Middle Eastern fare. Not my favorite, but we go frequently because of the convenient location.

      My husband and I typically get the platter for two and they let us split the large salad into a cup of soup and a small salad. It is plenty of food and we have leftovers for days!

      The grape leaves are my favorite, don't leave without trying one! Both the veggie and lamb ones are good. But the lamb ones are the best.

      The Gallayah is also mouth watering especially when you get it served on top of hummus.

      Request the freshest bread they have. Right out of the oven it is amazing!

      We have never had to wait for a table the service is quick but they don't rush you if you want to stick around.

      They had a fire and are closed for now, and that totally sucks!!! It was/is an especially high quality middle eastern restaurant. I can't wait until I can have their lemon oregano chicken again. And lamb vegetable soup. And hummus with lamb. And salads. And fresh juices. The service was always good, too. I hope they reopen!

      Disappointed in my visit today. The kids asked where I wanted to go for noms, so I picked our favorite Mediterranean restaurant. Today's issue was with our waiter. He initially brought the wrong smoothie order, as he brought a single glass instead of the quart which was ordered. He then failed (I guess he decided that he had a great memory as he didn't write anything down when we ordered) with our food order, as we wanted the lemon oregano topping on our deboned chicken and it didn't come with that. One of my daughters also requested a side of grilled veggies with primarily carrots on it, and it showed up with a single carrot slice. And he was pretty much nowhere to be found for the entire meal. Now wishing we would have taken our business elsewhere today, especially considering how well of a job they've done on previous visits ...

      Back in town visiting my family. I swear it's nothing like food in Detroit. My sister scoop me up from the airport first thing she said was "bro, I know you're hungry?":) yup.

      Nestled away in Hamtramck right on the beaded path of Caniff St. Where all the cuisine is international & authentic. Discover Royal Kabob Mediterranean on a premium scale, already familiar with the menu my sister insisted on the Deboned chicken. Also, a gentleman suggested I try one of their fruit smoothies pssst.. it was dumb good;) I shared it with both my nieces and they concurred. Even though we got carryout the staff was very polite.
      Got home and all four of us smashed, and it was still food left over. The white meat chicken was uber moist, satisfying & just delicious the freshly made pita with garlic butter paired perfectly. All in all, it was excelente.

      Lucky to have found Royal Kabob! Located on Caniff in Hamtramck, this wonderful middle eastern restaurant is a great find. There is a small parking lot behind the restaurant that puts you steps away from the rear entrance. Upon entering, you are greeted with an amazing aroma that makes you excited to find out what exactly it is.

      The interior dining room is clean, light and airy. You can have your choice of a table of a small or large booth topped with bread plates and red cloth napkins adding a nice flare of color to the inner decor. You are immediately greeted by the servers with smiles, ice water, warm bread baskets and a yummy garlic sauce.

      The menu has traditional appetizers, salads, sandwiches and entrees, including many vegetarian options. My party opted for the half-size spinach salad topped with chicken breast, you can even add feta cheese for a nominal add on price. The food was fast and fresh and visually appealing. The server checked back frequently to make sure we were okay.

      In the future, whenever I am in the mood for great middle eastern food, Royal Kabob is at the top of my list!

      I stopped here for lunch this week when I heard this place was owned by the same owners as Malek Al Kabob in Taylor. The shish tawook sandwich was really good! I love their hot bread and garlic dip too! I will definitely be back!

      I'm a huge fan of this place. I visited a friend who lives close by this place and we ate here two nights in a row while I was in town. YUM.

      The falafel was excellent. I thought the hummus could use a bit more salt and/or some other flavor (garlic, perhaps) but it was still creamy and good. The prices are great and the food is ready quickly. You can order ahead or stop in, either way you'll only wait about 10 minutes for an order for a few people.

      Parking lot behind the place is tiny so prepare to park in the street if need be. There's also limited seating inside so I think they mostly do takeout or delivery. I've never even been inside so I'm not sure what is happening in there but the food is delicious, even once you get it home.

      Place was always busy prior to their fire. Food was excellent, staff was friendly, and owner was often on site. Rumor has it that it will be reopened and better.
