“ An incredible mix of Mexican and Mediterranean food, I usually go back and forth between the two when coming here. As a bonus the hot sauce is actually spicy and addicting. ”

“ Habibi's Birria is small local chain dishing out fusion "HALAL MexiTerranean Food" which would translate to Mexican and Mediterranean food. As of this review they have 3 locations scattered around the Bay Area according to their IG account: @habibis_birria Interesting concept. I think it works fairly well. All the dishes we ordered were tasty. There is a decent amount of seating inside. Place your order at the counter and find a seat. Parking is a different story; street parking is the only option, as there is no dedicated parking lot. This could be a challenging issue during peak times. #MexiTerranean: ~ Torta de Birria - 4.5/5 An excellent Birria Torta. Everything you'd imagine a Birria Torta to be... My only issue is the tiny size... Inflation perhaps. The Totra is one of the smallest Tortas I had...looks like a small sando. ~ Birria Taco COMBO - 4/5 Good solid Birria Tacos, a tad on the pricier side considering the size. ~ Birria Ramen Soup - 4.5/5 Hot ! Hot! Hot! Make sure you wait a hot minute till this cools down before digging into it. Tasty, large...most definitely on the salty side...but delish none the less. I'll definitely stop by if I'm in the neighborhood. ”

“ Ok this place is my go to local taco spot! I love it here and I love many of their menu items which is nice so I can switch it up depending on my mood. The birria is fire so if you are a fan, definitely have that. I love the queso tacos and shrimp is my personal favorite but quesobirria combo is also a must. Their consome (AKA dipping sauce) is ridiculously tasty. Burritos are also insane and HUGE is you come with a big appetite. The restaurant itself always has a banging Spanish music playlist, some IG flair for photos and the social media enthusiasts. Overall, highly recommended for any taco lover like myself. GO NOW! ”

“ 3.5 stars Mexi-Terranean is an unexpected fusion of Mexican and Mediterranean cuisines, and you'll find both types of dishes at Habibi's Birria! I started with a birria taco, made of shredded braised beef served on two grilled corn tortillas, topped with onions and cilantro, and served with sliced radish, lime, and two salsas. On the Mediterranean side of the menu, the Veggie Plate came with four different mezzes including three crispy falafels, creamy baba ghanoush, a salty yogurt cucumber salad, and a very sour tabbouleh (chopped parsley, tomatoes, onions). Interestingly, the mezzes had a stronger flavor profile than more traditional versions, but everything went nicely with the familiar warm, thin, chewy pita bread on the side. Overall, the quality, freshness, and flavors of the food here were just average, but the prices were reasonable and the service was quick and friendly. ”

“ Our first visit was a 5 star experience with goat birria plate, birria plate, and the chicken and shrimp taco Tuesday special. Everything was on point that we came back for takeout just a few weeks later. The goat birria was still delicious and the birria tacos were great but the shrimp in the Taco Tuesday taco was so tiny (1/5 of the size of the orignial) that it reminded me more of shrimp salad sized shrimps. Our third visit, we were told after we ordered that they were out of the goat birria so we tried the Mediterranean side with the mix plate. Nice that their mediterranean side is as good as their Mexican side. Our most recent visit was more of a 3 star as we noticed that the offerings for Taco Tuesday no longer has the shrimp which given the size of them last time, probably for the best. Was disappointed that their goat birria is no longer offered daily, so we tried the birria ramen. Didn't realize the ramen was Tapacio ramen similar to Cup O Noodle so was thirsty all night. Over four visits, it's a bit of a hit or miss at this point so more of a 3 1/2 star overall now especially if the goat birria is not available daily now but bumping up to 4 since their employees are friendly.and their birria tacos are still worth coming in for. ”

“ We used to get this at the Hayward location, and this new spot is a little closer. Food is still amazing! I usually get the quesobirria combo which comes with 3 tacos and personally, it's too much food for me. Two tacos are perfect and 2.5 is max for me, but since 3 is how I get the consumme, the combo it is!! The shell is crispy and their hot sauce is HOT. Eating in when everything is still hot is the way to go. But it's still good if you need to take it to go. One of our regular spots! Service is always quick and they have always been so nice. The tables/chairs/floors etc are always kept very clean. ”

“ Supposedly birria is traditionally made with goat and this was the first time I've had it! All the places I've had birria were made with beef! 3 quesabirrias combo with goat and consome - really tasty with a satisfying amount of meat and cheese. Quesabirrias torta with beef and consome- tasty and messy as they should be. It's much smaller than tortas I'm used to but it was delicious. Note: The consomes for the beef torta had beef in it and goat birrira had goat in the consome. I made the mistake of assuming they were the same flavor and dipped the beef torta with the goat consome. It wasn't bad but I don't think it's meant to be mixed. I wouldn't mind coming back for a meal and having kulfi next door for dessert. ”

“ Second time here and realized I didn't leave a review already. I ordered the regular burrito with birria and it hit the spot! My party also ordered the birria nachos and they were fresh and really tasty. There's surprisingly quite a bit of seating inside and service was relatively quick. The restaurant is pretty quiet, and is a good spot to come with family. There's street parking that's available but can get congested at times. The food is halal, which is great for those with dietary restrictions. I saw they had Mediterranean items on the menu as well, but for a place that has birria in the name, one would think that's their bread and butter. Try it out yourself! ”

“ Quality/Quantity - Birria Burrito Supreme - My daughter's order and her favorite of the three entrees. #2 for me. Quesa Birria Tacos - My order, and my favorite. #2 for my daughter. Chicken Shawarma Wrap (D&W Meat) - My wife liked this, but both my daughter and I did not care for it. This is one of the items that got rung up incorrectly which the employee fixed immediately. Pistachio Baklava - We were charged $3.99 when the menu price read $3.11. It was good, a little too sweet for my wife. Small portion.Expensive for what little we got. Two table sauces were available, we only needed and used it for the shawarma. The shawarma was too "dry" for both my daughter and I. Non alcoholic drinks only, see picture. Thanks, as you are helping me cut back on my drinking, lol. Atmosphere - For a year old, the place still looks new, congrats. Small local restaurant, decent size, see pictures. Good simple decor, see pictures. Indoor/outdoor seating. Indoor had both table and booth seating. Street parking, but not an issue at all. 50% of your (few on a Monday) dined in and the other 50% took to-go. Two unisex clean bathrooms. Kitchen is semi-open, and also still looks new. Open 7 days a week from 11am or noon until 8pm or 9pm. See picture or Yelp. Service - Counter service. Service was excellent. The young employee did a good job. He was the greeter, cashier, and runner who brought our food to us. When my wife noticed the price mistake, he corrected it immediately. Too bad we did not notice the second price mistake until we left... Price - $51 + tip. We did not count this against the employee but the owner needs to check his POS system. Half of the stuff we ordered did NOT match the menu price?!?! And we only caught one of the mistakes. So the OWNER got a tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success for the last year. Why is it that we are only hearing about you now? ”

“ Birria burger and quesabirria tacos were hella good! The consommé was on point and I was straight drinking like it was water lmao. 10/10 would come back again to this joint and try the other things on their menu. ”
