About Habibi Express
Habibi Express is built for speed — order at the counter, food in 5-10 minutes, eat in or take out. The space is compact and casual; this isn’t a sit-down date spot, it’s where you grab an excellent shawarma between beach time and dinner plans. Open lunch through dinner with consistent hours. Cash and card both accepted.
Signature Dishes & Menu Highlights
The chicken shawarma wrap is the menu hero — well-spiced meat, garlic sauce, fresh vegetables, warm pita. The falafel wrap is the strongest vegetarian option — crispy outside, herby inside, with proper tahini and pickles. Add a side of fries with garlic sauce; thank yourself later. Hummus and baba ganoush are both made daily and worth ordering as sides.
