Reviews for AlTayeb Restaurant in Garden City, MI
September 2022 update: Tried the Spicy Potatos. Really good. Fried with cilantro, butter, little garlic, unexpectedly... tasty. "Al Tayeb" roughly translates into "The Delicious" in English, and that would be an accurate name for thisrestaurant. Outstanding service, and everything was plated with much attention to detail. Let's just come right out and sayit, AlTayeb has the BEST Falafel in the area, bar none. Even if you don't generally like falafel, you should try it here andlet it become one of your favorites. A broad in the parking lot was fumbling for her keys, when her bag tore open, and afalafel escaped, rolling a few feet. She instantly scrambled to pick it up. She looked up and saw that I had seen what she haddone; and said "Normally I would never pick food off the ground, but these are so good!". I uncomfortably laughed, but thatdoes tell you something about these falafel. Another good dish is the Labneh and Zaatar. Picture a fresh soft cheese (maybehalfway between yogurt and cream cheese), with a pile of spices on top. Fresh, simple, delicious. If you are there forbreakfast, you can't beat the Eggs & Sujuk. A big plate of scrambled eggs and finely ground sausage Coffee was great, althoughthe day we visited, they only offered CoffeeMate rather than Cream Read more
Very delicious food. Really outside of the box type of Middle Eastern food. But boy was it tasteful. I highly recommend this... food if you want to try a different type of cuisine. I took the waiters suggested and wasn?t disappointed. Read more
Hospitable owners and staff providing amazing service and delicious food. As a Lebanese American individual, I search for food... that reminds me of my mother?s cooking. I have tried many restaurants including Altayeb in Dearborn, but the Altayeb in Gardencity was the only restaurant that matched the flavors I look for. I have eaten so many times at this location during the lastcouple of years. I have tried almost every item on their menu. Everything I have tasted was perfectly seasoned andauthentically prepared the Lebanese way. I look forward to having another delicious breakfast and friendly customer service. Ihighly recommend this restaurant to all of my family and friends. Read more
I cannot say enough good things about this place. Food was absolutely incredible. Such a unique gem hidden in plain sight.... Easily the best brunch place in a 40 mile radius. Food was so flavorful and fresh...and don't even get me started on the hummus????????. Service was personable and joyful. Treated us like guests in their home, with an enthusiastic drive to make ourbellies full and put a smile on our face. Will definitely be back! Read more
With such a simple menu, yet the food is amazing and has you craving to come back for more. Their dishes are a definite brunch... style with different middle eastern morning dishes. On the weekends their is a bit of a wait time in order to be seated. Theonly thing I would like to add-wish their was more variety in choices. Other than that, its a great spot to eat on the weekendswith family and friends. Update 5/2022 Added some pictures. Still a stable brunch spot! Love it there ! Fully Halal Menu Read more
Light but filling. The hummus was hands down the best I?ve had, so thick and creamy. The spicy potatoes are amazing-crispy and... the garlic and cilantro really pack a punch. The eggs with ground meat were fluffy the mkanek and fettah which we also got werewarm and full of flavor. We got the tahini fatten with chunks of meat and it was my first time having it but it was DELICIOUS.Hands down must tries are the cheese sticks and spicy potato!! Clean establishment, friendly welcoming staff who do their bestdespite the staffing shortage, can?t go wrong with this breakfast for champs! Read more

AlTayeb?s food and customer service is 10/10! The food is absolutely delicious! We ordered the falafel, labneh with zaatar, eggs... with potatoes, and balila. Maher provided exceptional service, treating us like family and suggesting a couple other must-tryitems, including the hummus and mosabaha. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful. It was also super affordable. We werevisiting from out of town, but if we lived closer, we would easily eat there several times a week! Read more
