My husband and I both worked near Dearborn at different times and used to have lunch at Al Ameer so we've been familiar with the restaurant for over a decade. The food is always excellent and since we retired we don't 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 she's 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 wasn't traditional, but I don't eat meat so I'm really not into turkey anyway. I do love Middle Eastern food, though, and Al Ameer has excellent food. It's my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant. The restaurant is clean and the ladies restroom was tastefully decorated and immaculate. That's 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.

My partner and I came here during lunch and we were quickly seated. The lunch menu is a good value with big portions. The food here was amazing, especially the chicken! The bread is homemade. Worth a stop if you’re craving Middle Eastern food!

Excellent Middle Eastern Dining Experience! Al Amir Restaurant is truly a hidden gem! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Their shawarma, hummus, and kebabs are absolutely delicious — authentic taste that feels homemade. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcome every time you visit. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for families or friends gathering for a meal.

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.
