    Beef pita sandwich
    Sagarika G.

    Habibi Shawarma is a total hidden gem tucked inside Naperville Fresh Market -- and wow, it delivers! The chicken shawarma is so flavorful and juicy, wrapped in the softest pita. The falafel is crispy, fresh, and full of flavor -- not dry like you get at some places. And the beef pita sandwich is so juicy and tender and smoky! All sandwiches come with hummus, pickled onions, jalapeños, salad, and LOTS of garlic sauce and hot sauce! SOOOOO satisfying! It's a casual setup with a few tables, but super clean and perfect for a quick, delicious bite. The staff is friendly, the portions are generous, and the food comes out fast. Whether you want a pita, bowl, or salad - this is your place to be! If you're shopping or just in the area, do yourself a favor and stop here. It's fast, fresh, and full of flavor -- I'm already planning my next visit!

    I have tried shawarma all over the world so to impress me with your shawarma is not easy and this place has done that. Now adays shawarma has also turned into fancy food which it is not. It's a quick food option in middle eastern culture where this provides a quick bite without breaking the bank but recently most restaurants in America portray it as something fancy and has started charging alot of money for it. Coming back to the food, its really nice they make it in pita but not the traditional way, it's more like the persian style where they cut open the top and can then do the filling inside. I wish they toast the pita and it would make it better but even without it the shawarma is still delicious. The price is right. The service was nice as well, I didn't see a grumpy employee or unhappy attitude. The gentleman at the counter was very helpful and patient.

    Located inside Naperville market this place has great food at a great price. Nice for eating before/after shopping or just coming in for a bite to eat. The workers are kind and generous with portions.

    I love that Naperville Fresh Market continues to offer halal food options. The latest offering is Habibi Shawarma, which I was fortunate enough to visit during its grand opening. It's located near the Taqueria and the produce section (i.e. right side of the store). The menu seems kind of limited, but good enough for a small shop like this. They were offering chicken or beef shawarma pita sandwiches for only $3.95 as a grand opening special. Unfortunately they didn't have fries or schnitzel which were listed on the menu; hopefully those will be offered soon. Anyway, I ordered a beef shawarma pita and a chicken shawarma plate. They also included some hummus, tahini sauce, hot sauce, and amba (?) sauce on the side; beware that their hot sauce is actually spicy. The beef shawarma was similar to gyros, and they generously filled the pita with meat and other fillings; I also asked them to put in some fried eggplant. It tasted pretty good, but was hard to eat like a sandwich because it was so filled. The chicken shawarma plate was kind of boring because it was just chicken, cabbage, and tomato salad. It wasn't topped on rice, but they did include two pitas. It also didn't include fries like the menu stated, but hopefully fries will be coming soon. Not the best Middle Eastern food I've had, but not bad. 3.5 stars overall.

We…read morehad a dip trio (always order extra pita!!), and lamb souvlaki, gyros, pastitsio, and a special seafood Youvetsi. All yummy, though I found the Youvetsi overly salty, but the underlying grill flavor was divine. I had the gyros, which was huge, crispy, and some of the best I've ever had. Even the tomato was so fresh I'd have thought they picked it just for me. Ended up with banana cream napoleon and bougatsa for dessert. The service was beyond amazing, and food was hot. Only downsides... rather than raising prices they tack on an extra 3% that sneaks in the bill. And the prices were already very high. ($260 before tip). We were also charged $2 more for the dip trio than was on the menu. And while I know it's common these days, it was very noisy. I'd recommend eating outside if the weather allows, if you want to have conversations. We'll still go back though. Just not often for that cost.

The restaurant was very loud, however, and it was hard to hear each other. Usually I enjoy this restaurant, especially the black cod. This time I ordered a special fig and peach salad and added lamb for the protein. The salad was good with the fig and peaches, but the lamb skewer was overdone and grizzly. Even though the meat was not cooked to medium rare, it was tender around the grizzle. I ended up spitting out the pieces I couldn't chew. Not really ladylike, but my teeth just couldn't work through the tough and stringy pieces. This visit was disappointing. The highlight was being with friends. My salad was just meh. I did like the combination of figs and grilled peaches.

This is a nice, small Middle Eastern market compared to Souq Fresh Market in Lombard. Souq is very big. This market has a lot of unique Middle Eastern snacks that I've never seen before along with a kitchen that you can order lunch and dinner from. Lunch is served 10 am - 2 pm. I believe dinner is served from 2 pm to 9 pm. Don't quote me on the end dinner times. They have 3 tables that you can eat at. I came after 10:20 am and I ordered the chicken kufta lunch special, two different kinds of samosa, and kebabs. Prices were cheap, I got all of this for $25. They also have an area where you can get some fresh meat and deli items. Staff was friendly. Overall 4 out of 5. If they fixed the kebabs, it would easily be a 5. -chicken kufta lunch special 5 - he made this fresh. You get one pita bread with it. Meat was soft and tender. The rice and salad were very tasty. Huge portion. -samosas 5 - I got one beef and one potato. They were both delicious. -kebabs 3.5 - he gave me two big kebabs but they did not taste freshly made. I'm no stranger to kebabs and I usually like my kebabs to be tender and juicy. These were semi tough and kind of dry inside. I can see the spices in them but they would taste even better new.

I chose the Chicken Koobideh which was so juicy, I was shocked! I've had good Koobideh, but never this juicy and tender! Strong flavor, and hint of saffron, a true delight. I also ordered the Ghormeh Sabji - which is a soya (dill) based green stew with meat and beans, and when it first comes to the table, you're thinking this looks and smells like henna paste, but the taste is so beautifully complex - savory, bitter, buttery, and pure deliciousness in every bite!!!!! A must try for something different. Husband ordered the lamb shank, and it was tender and fall off the bone! The meat was soft and unctuous. It was served with this roasted garlic bulb that was roasted to perfection, taking the harshness of the garlic away and replacing it with a soft, buttery, jammy garlicky goodness that is to DIE for!!!! Lastly, my mom got the lamb and beef Koobideh and said it was soft and juicy as well. After food, we had their tea and it is absolute perfection. I take mine sweetened, but even unsweetened my mother found it perfect! Lastly, don't sleep on the DOOGH! That's that fermented yogurt drink that is tart, salty, and super refreshing! I almost didn't even wanna tell yall about it, but I reminded myself that gatekeeping is a cardinal sin! And finally, the ambiance and the service is AMAZING. So gracious, so soft spoken, so generous and just kind to boot. The food is delicious but I'd come back just to see these smiling faces!!!

    What a true gem of a find!…read more This is a small place in a small strip mall. The manager and the food are outstanding! My husband ordered a chicken and rice dish, I ordered the vegan dill rice. Very few places serve dill rice, but it delicious and one of my favorite foods. I rarely cook dill rice, because of how time-consuming preparing dill is to separate from the stems. The manager came by to ask how our food was, to which I replied, "Excellent, but this dill rice has no lima beans or fava beans." He informed me that he has had customers that are allergic to lime beans, but is happy to include them if they are requested when ordering. He also said that they will make any menu item modification when requested. They have a menu board as well as QR code menus. Top place for people of any dietary need/choice!
