“A new Middle Eastern place with fresh vibes. Enjoyed the food.”
Sawsan S. · Google review, Sep 2026 “Outstanding catering and even better service! We ordered from Habibi Time for our event and everything was fresh, delicious, and on time. The family platters were a huge hit. Special shoutout to Yahya at the counter - he went above and beyond to make sure our order was perfect. Super professional, friendly, and genuinely cares about customers. He's an asset to the restaurant. Will definitely be coming back because of him! Thank you Yahya!”

The guy at the counter was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. He was patient, helpful with recommendations, and just overall had great energy. You can tell he genuinely cares about the customers. Will definitely be coming back!”

Abrar M. · Google review, Sep 2026 “First time dining here. I had the falafel plate and the food quality excellent and the portion size more than generous. Personally, I would prefer a smaller portion (say 4 falafel in stead of 6) if that would cut the price by a $2-3. IMO, they have best falafel in the coastal Irvine/Newport Beach area. Service very friendly and attentive. It is a very casual establishment, with ordering at the counter and someone serving you the food once prepared. Only small comment I would make is that the floor is very slippery, especially in the restroom area. Do take care if you or someone in your party is not sure footed. I will definitely be back.”
Vasan V. · Google review, Aug 2026 “So I’m not really a shawarma fan and it’s hard for me to find good Shawarma places in the area but OMG this one is different. I could surely say this is the best Shawarma in Orange County LA area. I think I found my perfect Shawarma place. I will sure be back. Also great customer service is friendly staff.”
Hussein H. · Google review, Aug 2026 “This place did not disappoint at all. The shawarma was so good and tasted very authentic. Everything came out fresh and the portions were perfect. Everyone was so respectful and helpful and you can tell they actually care about their customers. Such a good atmosphere overall. 10/10 experience!”
Aya A. · Google review, Aug 2026 “This shawarma spot was sooo good!! The food was fresh, flavorful, and the shawarma was juicy and really good. The employees were also super nice and welcoming.

Montserrat C. · Google review, Aug 2026 “Great Shawerma for USA. Crispy. Delicious. Need to get more powerful hood or more tonage on AC unit though”
Jimmy J. · Google review, Aug 2026 “I added this Arabic phrase to my vocabulary today: كتير طيب - pronounced “kteer tayeb.” It means “very delicious.” I had to ask the staff to teach me because I was genuinely thrilled with the quality of the meal. I had the grain bowl with beef shawarma. Everything was great! 10/10 recommend!”
Sam C. · Google review, Aug 2026 “Food was excellent, easily the better shawarma shop in the area, the pickles, fries, and meat in the beef shawarma wrap were all up to par. Recommend getting the garlic sauce extra on the side, it doesn’t come with the wrap. Service was excellent, the main cashier/customer-facing employee regularly circled around checking on customers. The atmosphere was good, clean bathroom and tables, only critique is it is a little tight of a space. Perfect for on the go”
Niko N. · Google review, Aug 2026 “Amazing food, my girlfriend and I were in a depressed mood from all the weekend driving but this food was so amazing and the courteous service was so kind that we left feeling much better. Thank you 🙏”
Mike W. · Google review, Aug 2026 “Food was amazing! And the staff was very kind and helpful! Can’t wait to go again”
Ahmad S. · Google review, Jul 2026 “The beef shawarma wrap is excellent.”
Ralph M. · Google review, Jul 2026 “Amazing food, in particular, the Chicken Shawarma is delicious. I ordered a combo platter, and it came with a lot of food for the price, which is appreciated. The beef shawarma was quite good, but the chicken stands out and is a level above the beef. Everything tasted good, even the side of fries was seasoned well, so you can't really go wrong with whatever you choose.”
J. M. · Google review, Jul 2026 “the food was very yummy, I love the chicken and rice especially. most importantly Jesus saved us all from our sins so I hope that you will turn to Him, nobody’s sin is too much! He will still forgive you. I mean He loves you sooo much He died for you! John 3:16”
