Best desi restaurant around metro Detroit their Food is straight and the hospitality is awesome. And the only restaurant in mi that stays open late night till 2am.
I came here after a dead end run looking for a different restaurant. I was very happy to see they had my favorite dish on their menu. The food took a little long but who can rush greatness! Will come again.
Cool place to try Bangladeshi food. Been here many times and likely will again. Restaurant is clean and staff is attentive. Definitely worth checking out.
Fantastic Indian food. Dining room is creepy but ate there anyway - no biggie. Drove too far to just get carryout. Staff was really nice and accommodating. We had the tandoori chicken, excellent; chicken korma, creamy and lovely; butter chicken which we were fighting over the sauce. Even the kiddo was happy. Veggie shinkara (spelling) also spicy, crisp and hot. Overall I would give it 5 but I take one away for the weird dining room lol. Did notice a steady stream of carryouts the whole time. My go-to for Indian food since moving to Detroit. Thank you Kabob House! Another dinner at Kabob House, food was still delicious! Butter chicken, chicken masala, korma - all wonderful. Naan and samosas hot and fresh.
Love Kabob house! They tend to give really bony pieces of goat when I order it, compared to other places, but the sauce is really good so I hardly mind, honestly. Service is really quick and generally accurate. They're good for delivery especially.
The world turns and the haters hate, but verily I say unto thee that Kabob House ranks among the more delicious, more reliable, and more affordable restaurants. Located in what I'm pretty sure is a former funeral home converted into a restaurant that is also home to the Bangladeshi American Public Affairs Committee, or BAPAC, Kabob House serves up its own take on what might be a familiar "Indian restaurant" menu plus some Bengali treats. It is also great to not have to leave the great Detroit-Hamtramck-Highland Park Conurbation to venture into the suburbs for food from the subcontinent, something that has frustrated me since moving here. Service ranges from slow to interminably slow, but always friendly. I've never had anything on the menu that was actually bad, but certain things are more interesting than others. The butter chicken is a bit tastier than the tikka masala, which I've found a bit generic. For the vegetarians among ye: I am not a fan of eggplant, but I love the baingan bhartha. The bhindi (okra) masala is also great, and the varities of dall are all unique and delicious. The one with yellow lentils is less remarkable because it's a little bit more soupy and I typically prefer my lentil concoctions THICC. Tandoori dishes are always a safe bet, and they manage with the fish quite well, too. I have yet to try their American menu (which includes, variously, Niman Ranch New York Strip and jambalaya!), but I assume as I am there quite frequently, I will, one day. They never have them, but if they do, make sure you get a six-pack of the rasgulla, which I maintain ranks among the most delicious confections ever created-- a luscious, succulent rolled ball of durum wheat flour saturated in some mixture of syrup with rose and possibly cardamom. Rasgulla varies from region to region in the Indian subcontinent, so, while I can't say exactly what variety these are, they always taste slightly different depending on where you find them. Contrast with the more widely available gulab jamun, a more donutty sweet also often found at Indian restaurants.
This is the restaurant that made me believe Indian cuisine is perfect... just perfect. Terrific food, good portions, cheaper than most Indian restaurants around the Detroit area (Chicken curry for $6!? Hallelujah!), great presentation, awesome service (waiters are always attentive and friendly), very clean dining room. Really... I want you to go here! It seems they don't get as many customers as they deserve. Anyway, I've had the Butter Chicken (spectacular with rich tomato/butter taste and succulent pieces of chicken), Lamb Biryani (a favorite of my SO), Lamb Korma (full of flavor and tender lamb), and a couple different appetizers. I haven't been disappointed yet. More trips to Hamtramck for me.
