Meat Shawarma Lunch with lentil soup and Chicken Shawarma Lunch with Fattouch
Unfortunately, the beef shish kebab cubes were overcooked. I had ordered this rare but it came medium well.

Lunch combo! Best deal around. And it comes with a little bag of fresh hot bread.
The house salad was crisp, fresh, and full of cucumbers (hidden in the bottom of the container).
The pita is amazing

Bitingly fierce garlic sauce that almost made me howl in delight and creamy baba ghanoush.

I am in love with La Fresh. We recently moved to Northville, and I am so grateful to have found this nearby Mediterranean gem. They have the best hummus and hot bread that I have ever had. Please do not take that lightly - I am well versed in hummus and bread. Whenever we have company, we treat our guests to this. My other absolute favorite things is their fattoush salad and dressing. It is particularly fresh - it stays fresh for leftover lunches for days! That really says something! We typically get their lamb shawarma and chicken shawarma sandwiches. They are huge. Another thing I will mention is their lunch specials (served all day). They are a neatly packaged offering where you pick your sides. It is pretty close to perfect. It is also enough for two. You can tell the food is high quality and it is packaged with care. It is a little pricey in comparison to other restaurants with similar cuisine, but it is worth every penny. One last thing... I recently had their cheese pizza (baked in their wood bread oven) and it was remarkably tasty. I actually piled fattoush salad on it and used it as a vessel to get it into my mouth. De-lish. Tip - order extra bread, don't think twice about it, and save any extra in the paper bag, in a ziplock bag, and hide it from your family. You're welcome.

I really do not like giving out poor reviews, but after 2.5 years I think the community needs to know. I am a delivery driver and although I have long thought this place offered the absolute worst lentil soup in all of metro Detroit, I wanted to make sure it was not a one off bad batch. I have ordered it on 3 separate occasions. My daughter said it tastes like seasoned gravy. It is awful. But that is not all. Employees here always seem super stressed. It does not seem like a friendly environment at all. Today - while waiting more than 20 minutes so far on a delivery order (they are always super late) I over heard an employee tell a customer that the prices on the menu have gone up but they do not have the new menus yet. The customer was upset (a $10 plus difference) but did not argue. Seems to me they should offer the price on the menu until the new one comes in. Seriously- there is some outstanding mediterranean food with 15 minutes either direction. It is worth the drive to get good food and excellent customer service elsewhere. Leave the seasoned gravy (aka lentil soup) behind and make a drive to one of the other local places I have recommended.

In addition to being able to work from home in sweatpants during the pandemic, another benefit of WFH is that we are also able to indulge in garlic sauce any/every day of the week. So I was eager to try out La Fresh, discovered recently on Yelp. Living in Michigan, and specifically working in Dearborn, I am exposed to high-quality recipes and preparations from local restaurants. I do have my favorites, as attested in reviews and photos, and didn't know how La Fresh would compare.After I placed my order online, I arrived in time to pick up my order. Unfortunately, on a Saturday evening, the restaurant was slammed with orders, based on the number of tickets lined up. The staff would call out the orders of those waiting, hopefully to speed up the process. Cautious, I waited outside while my meal was being prepared and packaged up - heads up, please bring your patience on these evenings.I ordered the beef shish kebab with grilled vegetables. The beef was nicely marbled and at the requested rare temperature, it was incredibly tender and nicely seasoned. The accompanying fattoush salad was huge and fresh. I saved the majority for a future lunch since there was already so much food. In addition, I ordered a side of baba ghanoush, my preferred spread, which was creamy, smooth, with a slight bitter edge, and a biting, fiery garlic sauce. The latter was yum yum yum.All of this came with a bag of still hot and pillowy pita bread. The puffed bread was the perfect delivery mechanism for the baba ghanoush and the garlic sauce. So good, it is no wonder that so many pita breads were being churned out at the restaurant.Service was fine. The team at the restaurant was definitely working hard to accommodate the line up of customers.

Order at the counter and pay and sit down. They will bring the food to your table.All used and dirty pens left to sign for the receipt. We ordered spicy hummus, a Chicken shawarma plate, double lentil soup, small tabouli, large fattoush salad with grilled chicken breasts, no pita. I thought I heard there was a half hour wait for orders, hoping it will be less for us dining-in. We are starving. It's 77 outside but I am cold and freezing inside here. Good thing I wore a jacket. The chicken shawarma plate dinner seems pricey at $16.49 for just shaved shawarma meat. They gave me a lot of meat on my Fattoush, the shawarma meat plate and on the salad is quite dry, very dry. Decent flavor, just bone dry is all. The dressing is good. Still had a piece of crispy pita in my salad. An escapee. The tabouli is good, solid small salad is quite big. The lentil soup is okay, super thick, tastes decent. The spicy hummus isn't bad. The pita pockets are good as always. The chicken shawarma plate was about a 2 for us. The fattoush salad alone was a 3, the shawarma meat was a 3. Service wasn't bad.

Solid Mediterranean food. Standard for the cuisine, but the food category is quite good baseline. A little in the expensive side for an entree, but you also get enough food for 1-2 meals

Ordered the Chicken Shuwarma. Came with salad and hummus. The salad and hummus were ok, but the shawarma was not really a shawarma. It was just a grilled chicken breast (I am not even sure it is chicken, it felt like it is Turkey), cut to small pieces. I could not even notice any trace of Cumin which is a necessity for a good shuwarma. I also had the chicken soup that was alright. I gave it 3 starts because I came for the shuwarma and it was well below expectations.
