Our Guestbook
“ This place is a beautiful escape from the city. Upon arrival, you’re greeted with the most generosity and a free drink. The elevator itself is a vibe. The space is massive with a working station, restaurant, hookah lounge, etc etc. This space is the next best thing NY could offer. The creative direction is immaculate and such a vibe. Forget Soho House, I need a membership here. ”
“ OMG Amazing on all counts. The food truly like home tastes as it should. The service, professional the Ambiance Sexy. If you like Middle Eastern food, HABIBI is a must. It's an experience from the moment you step into the restaurant!! The maitre d, the hostesses all of it AWESOME! ON POINT. I can't wait to return YELLA!! THANK YOU, HANA ”
“ The service and atmosphere were stellar. The waitress and manager Alex were beyond reproach in their attention to detail and inter personal communication. The clash of brutalism and mcm makes the dining room setting to a movie scene. The quality of food wasn’t the issue. I appreciated not making things not too salty but if the sauces were meant to be authentically ethnic. They missed that mark to cater to palettes less aggressive. I already know if I want traditional cuisines but no frills head to a Northern Blvd, or Flushing Queens. However, despite being non committal-on flavor . You’re coming for an experience and I’d go back gladly. ”
“ Nice setting. Great table decor. Yes it’s a bit out of the way but it’s that contrast what might just make be so wowing about it. Great food, predominantly featuring dishes from regions where 'Habibi' is a familiar term. Incredibly well priced. ”
“ I tried everything vegetarian on the menu and they do have plenty of options: Hummus baba ghanoush warak enab halloumi Manakish vegan bamia baklava Yes it’s kind of a trek getting there. From the sketchy warehouse to the elevator and the downstairs lounge. All of it is a total vibe! Complimentary Prosecco and shisha! Staff is friendly and surprised how affordable everything was! ”
“ Delicious meal on the rooftop of SSA out in Brooklyn with beautiful decor and ambiance. Started off with complimentary glasses of Prosecco and crudite followed by an awesome meal. We ordered the perfectly tender octopus, hummus (with lamb), ... ”
“ 10/10 this was the coolest experience. The elevator ride up to the top is worth it alone, but the food was insanely good, the service was fantastic and the ambience was super cool. *Definitely do not make the trek out there without a res tho! ”
“ Hands down the best dining experience in New York City. From the moment you walk in you’re greeted by staff with free champagne, through the most beautiful entry way and elevator. It feels exclusive but in a great way. The cocktails are great, the free crudite and never ending pita was a pleasant surprise, and the mains and mezzes were simple yet beautifully done. The only negative I have is that the fries were mediocre, and the 60 lobster came out cold. But, nevertheless, the 5 other dishes we ordered and everything else Habibi has to offer made the visit worthwhile. The ambiance and atmosphere can not be beat anywhere else in Brooklyn. For the amount of food, the experience, and everything else— the prices are more than fair. We will be back ASAP! ”
