Ya Habibi Slice & Spice

Katalina a month ago

So happy we checked this place out. The menu has all the seeming basics like pizzas, calzones, and sandwiches (gyros+, etc), but is anything but basic (with manaeesh & moajanat) and everything is fresh. The babaganoush was on point and the falafels were huge. The Shawarma pizza was a revelation, and staff was very attentive. Totally worth a trip, Ya Habibi Sweets next door provides amazing desserts for a full experience. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing!!! Went on a Wednesday night around 6, it was a ghost town. I couldn’t tell you why though, apparently it must have been an off day or something because the food was phenomenal. My wife ordered the lentil soup and the flavors were perfectly balanced. We had hummus and flatbread which was pretty standard, but the Shawrma pizza was a show stopper. The crust was beautiful. It had a nice crisp to it, was perfectly balanced by a soft middle. Not too thin, not too heavy but still filling. The toppings were a delicious and fresh tasting. I will definitely be back and if you are reading this review, your search is over. Go here tonight! Update! I went back, this time on a Saturday night around 6 again. We ordered the meat lovers, hawaiian, buffalo chicken, chicken Alfredo, chicken shwarma, and lamb shwarma pizzas. Every single one was terrific! The lamb! Let me tell you about the lamb on this pizza...as an Italian boy with roots in connecticut and new York, I have eaten so much pizza...this was the most delectable by far. If you get nothing else, you have got to give this pizza a go. I live on the north side, we drove the whole family 35 minutes to eat here. Worth it

Came here for the buffet around 5:30pm and had the place to ourselves. The buffet options were impressive especially if you love meat! My husband was thrilled! They have pita, hummus, baba Ghanoush, salad, cauliflower, potato and lentil soups, chicken, couscous with chickpeas (not sure), beef kofta, chicken kebob, and my favorite lamb with rice. Everything was delicious and flavorful. I was not familiar with the lamb and rice dish but our server told us that the last item at the end of the buffet table was actually the sauce for the lamb. It really elevated the flavors, sooo good! They also have coffee (tasted like a Turkish coffee) and tea plus of course, a dessert. I forgot the name of the dessert but it was the only thing that we did not particularly like because it was too sweet for our taste but I’m sure other people will like it. Do come and try this place, you will not be disappointed!

Stopped by to try their dinner buffet and was pleasantly surprised. As someone who loves meat, I appreciated the variety. They had plenty to choose from. I tried the chicken kabob, kofta, baked chicken, and a lamb and rice dish. The baked chicken and lamb dish really stood out; both were flavorful and well-prepared. They also offered lentil and potato soups and both were good. For $25, it feels like a great value considering the selection and quality. The service was good as well which made the experience even better. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the mood for a hearty buffet.

Good atmosphere, good service. Food is well priced, delicious, and innovative Tried the Alfredo pizza and the Swarma pizza. I love a good Alfredo pizza so cheesy, saucey, and peppery. (Try with lots of red pepper flakes, trust.) The swarma pizza was different and had pickled (radishes?), that gave it a beautiful color and presentation and just the right amount of acidity. They are well staffed, food was quick, and as we were leaving they were actively cleaning. I always appreciate seeing that, it shows they care and are on top of things. Only critique is the menu has to be updated, several errors were on there that the server has to clear up. She was great though Sad I won't be in Jacksonville again for a while cause I want to try everything!
