Green Cedar

Great place for carry-​out. Always have had great food. Love their chicken shawarma.

Best Lebanese around. End of story. Food is fresh, never greasy. Meats are high quality, not like some Middle Eastern places that give you fatty, grizzled meats. And then there is the garlic sauce… sweet Lord!!! Top notch, fantastic food. Although I moved out of the area I still drive the 40 minutes back to Livonia for their food.

Green Cedar is fantastic! The hummus is so creamy and the best I’ve ever had. The greek salad was also delicious. Seems to be more of a carry out place, however there are a few small tables. Expect a wait during prime hours.

The best plate hands down is the kafka bi Laban. I love coming here the food is awesome the staff is so friendly. Diane is the nicest person ever always hooks up my order when I come in and the cook is super clean!!!

ehhhhhhhhhh
It was an awkward encounter… we stopped in to find out it was a hole in the wall joint with an order counter and then a couple seats. We actually thought it was a sit down place but it isnt. No big deal. But there were holes in the wall and wires sticking out of them. I am no electrician, but didnt look too safe…
It took us a few minutes to order the food because we didnt know what we wanted… this seemed to really bug the lady behind the counter :((Sorry– we were new!)… she gave us some very loud and heavy sighs even though no one was behind us.
The food came out (along with the large order of garlic sauce (only $ 3.99)) after about 12 minutes. The food was great!!! All four of us ordered sandwiches… so the bill was $ 25 for us! You cant beat that!
If I am in the area, then I might swing by but I definitely wont go out of my way to get it!

I have no idea what anybody sees in this place. I was excited to try it after reading a the reviews but was sadly disappointed beyond belief. I took the reviewers advice & gave it some time before I showed up to pick up my chicken hummus (the lady who answered actually didn’t even give me a time frame before she abruptly hung up). Of course the food was cold when I got home so don’t always assume they’re busy. They were dead when I showed up at lunch time, no one waiting and only one other carry out order waiting to be picked up. I asked if the garlic sauce comes included and instead of answering me she asked how many and I said one please and then I watched her charge me $ 0.50 for the smallest ramekin of garlic sauce. For the actual hummus itself it’s odd to say the least. It’s not gritty like store bought kind but it was so think it literally held its shape as I scooped a little on a slice of pita. It just wasn’t right. There wasn’t an ounce of olive oil on the chicken or the hummus making the entire meal just very dry. I was impressed at all.
On one positive they gave me three slices of pita (the big kind) without having to ask. Although that much is hardly needed I wish I would have just been given a complimentary garlic sauce like every other place instead of wasting the pita.
I won’t be back.

Good food. Hummus is very good. Tabouli and grape leaves are very good. Deboned chicken is very good. I work close so we are always ordering from Green Cedar and the food is always very tasty.
HOWEVER — EXPECT TO WAIT! The food is never done in the time promised. If you call and they quote 30 minutes, do not expect the food to be done in 30 minutes. Make sure you give them an extra 15 – 20 or you will be waiting around. Every time I come in, there are several other people waiting as well. Very slow and there is usually only 1 or 2 people taking orders and cooking.

Best Lebanese carry out in surrounding area hands down. Love the phone call asking what do you want with out a hello. Love the Chicken Shawarma, grape leaves and fattoush salad. Great Shawarma wrap also.
Mmmm mmmm good.
Place gets swamped on weekends and past experience is if they say 20 min it’s 30.
Can’t go wrong here.

More Please!
Lynn isn’t lying… the hummus is ridiculous with the perfect amount of lemon and so smooth you’ll want to break out your leisure suit and sing some Barry White. The shawarma is the best I’ve had in the area and while not as good or as big as Bucharest’s it’s on par with Mr. Kabob. The chicken is fantastic and their pita is a little griddled so it crisps more. The Sujouk sausage pita sandwich was pretty solid although not the flavors I expected but I’d order it again. Their lentil soup is on point and the rice that rounded out my daily lunch combo was buttery and light with vermicelli noodles running through it here and there.
The service isn’t quite as quick as Mr. Kabob but it’s more friendly and polite. I’ve eaten the chicken shawarma the last three days and I’m still craving it.
Worth trying for sure! Call ahead.
