The 38 Best Restaurants in Detroit, Spring 2025 | Eater Detroit
"Considered one the region’s most beloved butcher shops, Dearborn Meat Market offers visitors a chance to purchase freshly made skewered halal meats for cooking at home or for enjoying on-site, where they’re roasted over a charcoal grill. Stop by the casual dining room and order heaping trays of kabobs, kafta, chicken tawook, and other meaty entrees, along with sides of hummus, baba ghannouj, and pita bread. The space is owned by fifth-generation Lebanese butcher Sam Saad, who emigrated to the United States nearly half a century ago. While Dearborn’s dining scene continues to evolve with an increasing number of establishments that challenge the notion of what halal food can be, Dearborn Meat Market remains a beloved mainstay for its precision focus on producing quality cuts of meat in a welcoming space. Know before you go: If you want to take the cookout home, this casual market and eatery features a walk-up butcher’s counter where customers can pick items like kofta, chicken tawook, New York strips, and ribeyes." - Serena Maria Daniels
