Very Good resturant. Employees are friendly specialy the gairl server. I wish they offer pita with every order like Lavash. But still good portion.

Was in town from Cleveland, OH over the weekend!
Loved it! We don’t have anything like this in the Cleveland area, would be a perfect spot! Just saying lol….

Wanted to love this place so much, but won’t be going back. You pick your own table, get your own water (not cold), get your own cutlery and then have to order your food from the cash register. They do bring the food to your table. I got the lamb shank and fried pickles. Fried pickles were excellent…the rest of the food not so much. Lamb shank was HUGE but absolutely BLAND and tasteless. It comes with boiled potatoes and carrot. NO SEASONING whatsoever!! I’ve had Lebanese food many times but my goodness, there were NO spices at all. Completely tasteless. Very disappointed in the meal and the price. So many more delicious options for Lebanese/Mediterranean food than this over priced place.

The amazing Habibi Grill team catered our wedding yesterday and truly made it a success. In 90° heat, they showed up, were completely professional, kept everyone well fed and hydrated. All the food was amazing but the lamb/beef kebob was the star of the show. So many people raved to us after the wedding about the food and staff that I felt compelled to write this review. Thank you for making our special day perfect. 🫶 Chris & Erin

We had lunch and it was a great experience. I’d been wanting this place since seeing them on Instagram and the food was on point. Beef kebob wrap was excellent with the meat cooked perfectly. She had the lamb gyro and it was about the freshest we’ve ever had. On the recommendation of the server we got spicy potatoes. They were very crunchy and just the right amount of spice - you know builds up so the last few are almost too much.
Service was limited as you order at the counter and they bring it to you. But everyone was very kind and quick.
The atmosphere was very cool. Fun and vibrant.

Went there with a party of 8. Seated immediately. The process of ordering was seamless . The food came out so quickly and was so fresh and delicious. All the different dishes we got had a lot of flavor.
I've been here a few times and crave it often! The restaurant itself is pretty spacious and has two dining areas. The parking is a bit tricky in their lot but there's street parking available. The restaurant is usually lively and busy, but it's welcoming.
There's a self serve station for plates, utensils, seasonings, and water! We usually get a couple entrees to share and you really can't go wrong with anything. They also have platter options for groups and their portions are decently sized and filling. I really enjoy their lamb and beef options, they're flavorful and made well. Their hummus is absolutely delicious, I recommend! I also liked their spicy potato side dish, it was very good. I also recommend their spiced chai, it's warm, flavorful, and sweet. Overall, you can't go wrong and you'll be back to try it all.
Staff is always kind, always helpful, and they'll take care of you! I recommend them for groups, casual date, tasty food, and a good experience! Have been back many times and will continue to come back.
I went there for lunch for the first time today. The decor and ambience is really nice, music is playing so it feels lively (an old Amr Diab song played while I was there, nostalgic!) and the food is very obviously fresh - and wonderful. I had the shish tawook on pita, the pita was warm and soft, the chicken was grilled and had a great char on it. The baba ganoush was smokey and flavourful, very large servings. My friends and I will definitely be back to try more on the menu.
Hospitable, great quality, really nice place!

I was visiting Columbus for a conference and was very fortunate to have an AirBnB near Habibi's. It's a nice, casual place to drop in for a delicious meal in a cool atmosphere.
Despite all the delicious-looking Lebanese food options, I was in the mood for a burger at the time. So I got the Lebanese Burger (w/ cheese, ketchup, mayo, cole slaw, pickles, onions and tomatoes) and baba ghanoush w/ pita and veggies to start. It was all very delicious.
The service was nice and friendly. After we ordered at the cashier and seated ourselves, they let me know that extra dishes, utensils, water and napkins are self-serve across the room. Some people will knock this, but these people are spoiled. I don't mind this system at all and, in fact, I like it since I drink lots of water and use up a lot of napkins. You don't have to signal for anyone to serve you water and you can take as much as you want. And, if you want to share your food, no problem, just get as many plates as you need.
I liked the atmosphere too. Comfortable, cushioned booths and tables. Neon signs on the wall and check out the wall of rotary phones - original and cool!
Habibi Grill is definitely worth your visit. And that's not just my opinion. The several people I came to Columbus with for the conference also ate there and liked it as well. If I ever come back to this city, I will definitely stop by another time to try their other offerings, which I unfortunately missed!

Great food and atmosphere, food is very authentic . I’m Lebanese and the beef shawarma here is just as good as the one back home. 100% recommend. We had the fried cauliflower, fattoush salad, soujouk, and beef shawarma, 10/10. The baklava is soooo good too.
