Taboon Middle Eastern Cuisine - Flint

The same great taboon, new location! If you haven't been to Taboon yet, what are you waiting for? The food made by my grandma feels that you feel good with every bite! The service is always wonderful. They treat you like family and are as friendly and accommodating. The new location is not great...the setup shop in the hollowed-out bowl of an old pizza hut, but you still have to come here and eat ALL the Pita and garlic sauce!

I had to convince my boyfriend to try this place as he was unsure if he'd like Lebanese cuisine. He loved it!! We got the mixed grill for two. The rice is mainly what I wanted. It was so good. I loved the chicken shwarma, too. Overall, it was a great experience.

I am Lebanese so obviously love this food! Haven’t eaten here since they moved locations. I have to say, I was a littler disappointed. The kibbeh was not cooked in the center and looked very poorly made. Both sandwiches were good, though. All was cold though. Hoping it is better next time!!

It was our first time having a meal there and I was looking forward to it because I'm of middle Eastern descent. He ordered the gallaba and I had the chicken and hummus. His was good, mine was salty and tough. But my main concern was the service. We got there a little after 6:00, the order was taken no problem, food came no problem, halfway through the waitress brought our bill, then she brought boxes and then started clearing the table. Quite obvious either it was time to close or she needed to leave. That's a real good way to not get a tip. And or not come back. Was not impressed with the food or the staff. : . Flint

Update: one grape leaf was full of something so hard you cant break it without chipping a tooth. It feels like bone I can't even cut it with a knife. WTH!!! We've been getting Taboon for 29 years, this is a first. The sandwichs were the only thing in our order worth ordering. Walked in, ignored. Grabbed a menu told the host I was ordering to go. Stood at the counter, the gal talked to coworkers about who was whos son, took a door dash order, then apologized that she should have taken my order. Still she takes her time coming ovwr to me. I order, she needs me to repeat is 3 times. The cook gives her my food she puts my grape leaves in someone elses order and fries ina. Clear container in my order I didn't order fries) thenn when I get home I find that for $14 we got 4 fried kibee. $3.50 each! Smh this level of service is horrible. And their bread use to be airy and really good now its flat like thick pancakes. The hummus use to be smooth and flavorful its now thick and almost grainy its not blended well. Idk what changed with the move, maybe an owner shift but it's not a good change. : Taboon use to be my fav.
