Reporter Food: La Marsa Mediterranean Cuisine

(Crystal A. Proxmire, April 16, 2022)

Bloomfield Hills, Brighton, Farmington Hills, Fenton, South Lyon, Troy, Waterford, and West Bloomfield, MI –   LaMarsa is a locally-owned chain of Mediterranean restaurants throughout SE Michigan.

I recently had a carryout feast from the Bloomfield Hills location at 43259 Woodward. The chicken Shawarma Sandwich is a wrap made with chicken, garlic sauce, and pickles. I also got spinach pies – savory pastries filled with spinach and seasoning. And there was hummous with raw veggies including tomato, carrots, celery, and cucumber. It was great having hummous and veggies to munch on through the day, and the other items were good as well.

La Marsa features traditional items such as falafel, kaftka, kabobs, and shawarma. The garlic almond ghallaba is served Classic or Zesty. This has bite sized pieces of your choice of meat, sautéed with vegetables, garlic & Mediterranean seasonings mixed with rice, almonds and garlic. There’s also mousaka, which is eggplant, and salads like Greek, Tabbouli, Fattoush, and Cucumber.
