This place is a hit. Located in a nice part of town with a modern vibe. We loved the relaxed style, grab a menu, sit anywhere you like, get your own plates and water from a counter. When you’re ready you place your order at the register. The waiter Ali came out and made some suggestions and described different menu options. His recommendation, lamb chops, were 10/10. Chicken Shawarma as well as the Falafel were also 10/10. The portion sizes are big and the presentation is like that of a $50+ restaurant. We had our food within 10 min or less. The prices are very good and you’ll have some to take home. We’ll definitely come back. If you’re on the fence about Lebanese food try this one. It won’t disappoint.

Very friendly staff and delicious food! Clearly a beloved local restaurant based on how busy it was. There was a great mix of families, friends, and individuals eating here. They have a small parking lot, but it was full when I went so I parked across the street!

I just ate at Habibi Grill last night and I cannot wait to go back. Every thing I ate was amazing. From the hummus appetizer (which was perfectly seasoned and smooth) to our entrees and the baklava, it was all perfect.
My husband had the Tawook chicken and he let me snag a bite. The seasoning was so good and the chicken was delightfully juicy. I had the kefta kebab and that was very flavorful. The rice was excellent. We ordered a side of fries and every single fry was perfectly crisp. The hummus with pita appetizer was so good. The hummus was so smooth and perfectly seasoned. Normally I have to add seasonings to hummus I buy, this one was perfect.
The garlic sauce people. A must have. I should have taken home a large order of it, I will not make that mistake again.
Finally we took some baklava home and had it later, excellent crispy layers that were not too sweet and a lovely nutty flavor.
10/10 I will be back

This place deserves better reviews by far! We drove all the way from Kentucky for some legit Lebanese food and we really wish this place could open where we are. The food was as good or better than in Dearborn, MI. The shawarmas are just like La Saj’s in MI and even larger. You get bigger, better stuff sandwiches for the price. The spinach pies could use more filling but have the same great taste! The baklava was the best we’ve ever had. The hummus was also some of the best ever, it didn’t have that soapy taste that it can get from too much tahini — they don’t call him Mr. Hummus for nothing! This place is definitely worth the drive and we’ll for sure be back.

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.

This was my first time here and I ordered the chicken kebab entrée. I’ve tried a few Arab spots around Columbus, and I can honestly say this one has been the best so far. Everything was packed with flavor, and the rice was so fluffy and delicious I could have eaten it on its own.
I wanted to try the baba ghanoush but didn’t want to commit to a full container, and they were kind enough to give me a sample — free of charge, which I really appreciated. (And it was delicious) The service was great and the food was even better. I’ll definitely be coming back for more.
My only small critique is that the meat was just a little on the salty side, especially with the pickles already being salty, but still, it wasn’t too much. Overall, an amazing experience. Can’t wait to return!

The service and atmosphere of the place was very nice but we didn’t enjoy the food as much. I am a vegetarian and so my review could be biased. I didn’t like the flavor of spicy potatoes and thought that the cauliflower was a bit oily. I ordered the soup at the end hoping that it might be a savior. However, the soup came with a burnt flavor that I didn’t like. Again the flavors could be authentic but they weren’t to my liking. Parking was a bit hard to find on a weekday evening/night.

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.
