About the Business
Habiba specializes in fresh Mediterranean cuisine. We have a medley of dishes from around the Mediterranean region including salads, wraps, kabobs, and tandori; all of which are prepared on site. Our premier dish is the Lamb Shank, which is marinated for twelve hours and slow roasted in the oven for over four, making the meat so tender it slides right off the bone. We also have the lowest price hookah lounge in Greenville, with over fifteen separate flavors. We also have a full bar, featuring our house Mediterranean wine; Rene Barbier.

Excellent food and recently renovated restaurant space. The entire place is spotless. Owner was so nice and attentive, even engaged with our children and brought them out a cookie at the end of our meal. We ordered a sampler platter (hummus, baba ghanoush, stuffed grape leaves, samosas, spanakopita, tzatziki, incredible chutney, and tahini sauces too), gyro wraps, tabbouleh salad, and several kids cheese pizzas. Owner brought out complementary baklava for dessert! 10/10 we will be back.

Loved the lam kabobs and Greek salad. Friends had a pizza and salad with salmon. All very good and tasted fresh. Service was great and we will return soon.

Food was just as fantastic before and we were surprised to see that they recently renovated. The owner happened to be our server and he was so nice and knowledgeable. Really love how clean abs fresh the entire restaurant was. We will be back soon.

In town visiting family and ordered had GrubHub deliver lunch. Highly recommend the gyro. It traveled well, not soggy or greasy, generous portion of gyro meat. Fries were seasoned with herbs and had a great flavor. Butter shrimp was 10/10.

There's no service here. You have to initiate everything and even then there's no sense of urgency, customer satisfaction hospitality. They didn't listen to how I wanted my order and half of what is written on the menu. I ordered a beef shish kebab that two skewers and I got what's probably one skewer. Plus I was asked how I wanted cooked, to which I said medium but I got well done instead. Not a good way to bring customers back.

It's great if you like hockey, as the falafel are exactly as dry and as flavorless as hockey pucks must be.
Pita bread is without any merits whatsoever; it's debatable as to whether eating a paper plate would be better than one of their pitas.
Pizzas are prosaic with unimpressive dough.
Greek salad is a perverse joke with black olives instead of Kalamata olives.
It's vile cuisine.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Pate A.Taylors, SC3442226Nov 15, 2022
We tried this restaurant because we love Mediterranean food. Haven't tried one in the Greenville area yet. We came about 6 pm and there was only a few people there. The owner actually waited on us and took our order. We think mostly it's a night time bar hookah thing but the food was really good too. It was a nice quiet evening with good food. Prices were reasonable as well. We would definitely come back.

Overview.
Come here for food? Yes
Come here for hookah? No
So if I was coming to this place for food only I would have given a 4 star as the food was good. But we actually drove 1.5 hours to get hookah on our vacation. The hookah was not professional I guess is the best way to describe it. The hookah itself was not in good repair. There was a stuck ball bearing so one person had to block the hose so the other could draw (a two hose hookah.) They also use instant light coals which is not something I would expect from a hookah establishment. Yes I get that it is convenient but it doesn't offer the best hookah experience. It was also $1 extra for a coal replacement. We also had to send the hookah back to have some water removed as it was very overfilled. They brought it back, after dumping some out but it was still a bit overfilled. The hookah ended up $25. At least $5 more than I pay for hookah in Vegas with a well trained team who know how to prep and handle a hookah. Our overall bill for hookah, food and tip was $70+ A lot for the quality.
Staff was friendly. No complaints there.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nel C.Greenville, SC306Feb 27, 2023
I got the chicken and shrimp kabob. It was pretty good. The service was extremely slow. Sat down for 20 minutes and no one came. We had to call the restaurant to let them know we were waiting on a waitress.

Love the place.
The menu is fun and filled with pizza, tacos, Indian and Mediterranean fare. The owner Ydris and the young black girl whose name is shamirra. took good care of us on our trip through the town of Greenville.
Popular in the young crowd for a drink and some good food accompanied by music that is soulful.
I ordered good hummus. Delicious falafel. Vegetable biryani and some chicken seekh kababs with some hot pita bread and freshly made Jerusalem salad.
If you want good food be prepared to wait as everything is made after you order.
Loved this place and it's ambience.
