Dont come here on a Wednesday night if youre looking for an adult experience. Its a major teen scene. I personally witnessed underage teens taking shots everywhere. One girl told me she was 19 right after throwing back 2 shots. Complained to the server, nothing happened. Very sketchy place. Food was over priced and took forever. Drinks were over priced and watered down. As before mentioned, total teen spot. At 25 I was extremely uncomfortable and left bc of all the underage drinking. Shame on you habiba for not checking IDs more closely. I give this place 6 months before they lose their liquor license.

Where do I start, how about with the very long wait for someone to greet us while there were maybe four other tables in the whole place (on a Saturday night), or the super long wait for the food to come out, or the wrong side with my dinner, or the watered down soap in the bathrooms, or the uncleaned hookah that was given to us with a cold coal? All that aside the food that was given to us was good, and my fiancés gyro was amazing. Needless to say I will not be going back to sit down, but MIGHT order take out, if it was so far away from our house.

I enjoy coming here to hang out with friends, but last visit I wasnt too impressed. Our waitress was not nice at all. I had to hunt her down for the bill because she hadnt checked on us for 20 minutes, but meanwhile we watched her taking shots with customers and flirting. She acted like me asking for the bill was an inconvenience. I do not usually leave bad reviews, but I felt this issue should be addressed. I will be back again though because as I said I very much enjoy hanging out here. Love the flavors of hookah and the wings are very good.

World music until late night then its aggressive hip hop. Beautiful decor - I almost expect Indiana Jones to show up and burn it down! Generous portions. I have tried most of the menu and Ive always enjoyed what I got! They have flavor on lock in here. My favorite pizza in town? Its the Gyro pizza here. My favorite luxury dish in town? The lamb shank here. Best place for stand up? All the way in the back! Hookahs? Smoke like a sultan! I love this place! The owner is a gem and his staff is delightful. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!

Being a gluten free vegetarian in South Carolina is what nightmares are made of. Lots of baked potatoes and house salads. Then I found Habiba! Delicious! Tonight, I had the lentil soup, taboula, dolmas and hummus (with celery and carrots). Everything was wonderful! The taboula had chunks of tomato and cucumber so its a perfect salad on its own. The lentil soup is fresh and homemade. Definitely ask for Osha - he is a thoughtful and attentive waiter. Ask him for the homemade hot sauce to add some spark to the hummus and soup.

Tried this place for the first time Tuesday. Looking for a good spot for hookah. After reading the mixed reviews I decided to check it out. So here it goes. Service was a little slow and the lounge was not busy. Took a while to get my drinks and hookah. Once I got what I ordered the drinks were fine and the hookah was ok, the hookah itself seemed a little old, the tip was cracked. Once I decided I had had enough, received my bill and I was pre-billed gratuity which I was unaware of, especially since I was at the bar alone.

I cant recommend this restaurant highly enough. They have my favorite pizza in all of the upstate, maybe the world. They have my favorite luxury dish (lamb shank and roasted veggies). They have hookahs and comedy nights and world music (until 8 or 9) and more of a edgy hip hop vibe after dinner. The owner is also the head chef and cocktail inventor and had been all over the world so nothing is typical in there. Go for the food, stay for the atmosphere and drinks. Make it your new date spot.

I cant say enough about this place. I have visited Habibas many, many times. The servers are fantastic! So polite and will do anything to make your experience great. The food is delicious and you get more for your money! I recommend the lamb and chicken kabobs. The owner is always coming to your table to make sure your experience is going well. If your looking for some delicious Mediterranean or even pizza made from scratch, then this is the place to be.

I feel like the portions were tiny for the price.i got a sampler plate and the portions of each item were in sauce cups, less than 2 oz each.prices are higher than other restaurants in the area.the lamb is fantastic some of the best ive had, but again tiny portions for a good amount of money.for the value you are better off at pita house for Mediterranean and either Handi,Saffron, or India palace for indian.

Walked in, saw the sign that says "please wait to be seated", my friend and I waited. No one came. We stuck our heads in to find someone, no one was around. It looked like a deserted place. quite unfortunate because I was excited about trying them for the first time.

We came here with my MeetUp group. We had almost 20 people in the group that night. Everyone loved their food, the service was very good, the owner even came out to meet us and make sure we enjoyed our experience. Were going to meet there again this month!

Was here for a bridal party and the service was very slow. The entrees were not brought out inn any order it was 20 min before they would bring out food for one of us. I was the last to get food and the chicken was raw. Would not come again.

Great place to just stop by and grab a beer, smoke a hooka and play some pool. Always playing great music! Comedy night on Tuesdays! DJs on Mondays and Thursdays (dancing always going on!) Food is wonderful! Come by and give it a chance

Quiet and cozy. The inside is decorated like a harem tent. Tasty drink and hookah selection. Theres a pool table and a DJ later at night. Foods not bad. Service is a little slow but understand this is a laid back experience. Enjoy the vibe

This is a neat place to visit. However, their hookahs are heavily used and dont work well. Im assuming they dont properly keep them up. Also, the food we had was burnt or overcooked. One even tasted like sand. It wasnt good at all.

We visited because of Groupon, but will return because its yummy! Lunch was awesome! We tried out several dishes and all were tasty. We dined outside because the day was nice, but the inside is decorated like a tent. Pretty cool!

A horrible experience, ugly presentation of the food, the cold food brought by the refrigerator, it looks like a horrible pure all, plastic tableware like Kindergarden Classroom. FATAL I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT.

All meat is very good. Lamb shanks with veggies and whipped potatoes was excellent. Appetizers better to order as a separate dishes, not as a platter for 2. But service... should be better...
