Alex Kabob House
About This Spot
Step inside Alex Kabob House, and you're immediately wrapped in the warmth of a cozy, unpretentious neighborhood spot where the hum of genuine conversations and the scent of fresh pita bread welcome you like an old friend. Tucked away on Eureka Road, this intimate Mediterranean restaurant moves at a gentle pace, inviting guests to slow down and savor the moment—whether it's a weeknight dinner or a special birthday gathering.
The modest dining area holds a quiet charm, where attentive service feels less like business and more like a shared meal among neighbors. Here, the personal touches—from the friendly greetings of the staff to the care woven into every dish—turn a simple meal into a quietly memorable experience. There’s a comforting rhythm as skewers of kabobs, plates of warm hommous, and freshly chopped salads arrive, their aromas mingling with laughter and easy conversation.
What stands out is how each bite carries a thoughtful balance of flavors—seasonings that enhance without overwhelming, textures that invite curiosity with every mouthful. From tender lamb to perfectly spiced chicken shawarma, the kitchen consistently crafts plates that feel both familiar and gently surprising. Salads burst with freshness, and small touches, like the house-made raw kibbeh or a creamy goat cheese arayis, reveal a commitment to authentic, heartfelt cooking.
Families and locals return time and again not just for the food, but for the atmosphere—warmth that feels like home, where kindness and genuine care are served alongside each meal. Alex Kabob House offers more than a taste of the Mediterranean; it offers a place to connect, a slow moment of joy in the Southgate neighborhood.

I have lived in the downriver area all of my life, however today was my first visit here for my son's birthday (yes, Chrisoms Eve bday). Absolutely loved the food, the potions and the service. The chix Shawarma was excellent Just the right amount of seasonings without being overly salty which seems to happen much these days. Highly recommend Alex Kabob House. I will be back !

Had the pleasure of dining at @alexkabobhouse today thanks to my dear friend @yiayia_katherine. You walk in to this tiny dining area and as you’re seated, greeted and served you wonder how so much FLAVOR fits into such a small space Idk what was better, the food or THE SERVICE! Salem (I believe to be the owner) and his Fatima were so warm and genuine and treated us with such kindness!! Thank you guys We will definitely be returning and if you like GOOD Mediterranean food stop on in…and just a little side note, they had THE BEST garlic spread I’ve ever had in my life! Chef’s kiss

I'm shocked I haven't reviewed here yet. I've been a regular for two years now with my boyfriend and we love it. Our friends and family also love it every time we go. We love the super falafel sandwich, but all their food is great. Everyone is super friendly. Feels like a family.

My new favorite place! As a DoorDasher, I frequently get orders from Alex Kabob House. So today my son took me to check the food out for ourselves. O.M.G. Absolute Heaven!!!! I don’t even like garlic sauce! But their’s is delicious!!! It is not overpowering. My son ordered Shish Kafta lunch special, I had the Shish Tawook. We both had rice. I had lentil soup while he had the salad. Every single bite of every single thing was absolute Heaven and the tomatoes were the freshest I’ve tasted in a long time! And the bread is hot and oh so wonderful!! Oh, and I also had a banana and strawberry smoothie with a mango base. Also Heaven. We also had the nicest server, Salem. I just can’t say enough wonderful!!! Beautiful, nice, clean, friendly place. Absolutely 5 stars! 10 of 10!

We’ve had shawarma sandwiches from here before and they’re fantastic. We ordered the Alex plate this time to try a variety of items. Enjoyed how everything had its own wonderful flavor. I wish it was still $29.99, but it fed 3 adults two times, so the value is still there. Absolutely delicious food and I believe the most delightful smelling parking lot I’ve ever been in.
