Yalla Habibi Restaurant in Bielefeld

I had to wait so long, we waited an hour and then the food was still cold.

I went here for a half-portion of chicken. When the food first arrived, the chicken was clearly raw inside. I pointed this out immediately. The employee asked if I had time, which I confirmed. The chicken was then cooked again. While it looked cooked through on the outside, it was still raw inside. When I complained again, I was told it was cooked through – which simply wasn't true. I didn't eat any more of the chicken. Unfortunately, I had already paid by that point. Luckily, I didn't get a stomachache afterward, but this kind of thing is absolutely unacceptable. In addition, very loud wedding music was playing in the restaurant, which made the experience anything but pleasant. Overall, not a good experience – neither with the food nor with how my complaint was handled. I'd actually had good experiences before, but this was the last time I'll eat there. P.S.: The location isn't ideal (Kesselbrink with lots of homeless people or drug addicts).

The restaurant has potential, but unfortunately, both the chicken and the shawarma were cold on both occasions. The kitchen seems clean, but the food temperature definitely needs improvement. I really hope it gets better in the future.

The day before yesterday, we ordered takeout broasted chicken and crispy chicken. They were both delicious, even though we ate them an hour later between our commute and home. The broasted chicken was amazing; I honestly didn't expect it to be this good in Bielefeld, especially after we'd given up hope of finding a restaurant that respects its customers and its reputation, one that doesn't just care about making a sale and is ethical in its work. The crispy chicken was also very good. I've eaten shawarma several times, but if they improved the chicken flavor and made it more distinctly shawarma, and if the chicken was cooked properly, it would be much better. The sandwiches should also be cooked properly, not just rushed and done. 🤭 The service was respectful, and the owner seemed to care about customer satisfaction and the reputation of his establishment.

Anyone who goes there is suicidal!

fresh and very delicious food and great service

The food was good, but the wait was incredibly long, and people who arrived much later had their orders ready before mine. It was also very crowded, and someone stole my bank card from my pocket while I was in line.

Best shawarma I've ever eaten. Clean place. Nice music. And good service.

My favorite shawarma restaurant in Bielefeld! You feel so comfortable and the shawarma tastes delicious ❤️ The service is also incredibly friendly.

The food was delicious, but I didn't like the system of paying downstairs first and then going upstairs, as space downstairs was limited and the queue sometimes stretched outside. Otherwise, the food was very tasty and the value for money was excellent. Highly recommended.

Yalla Habibi, a real hidden gem for shawarma in Bielefeld! I think it's fantastic that a restaurant like Yalla Habibi exists in Bielefeld! The shawarma here is simply amazing – incredibly delicious and full of flavor, the likes of which you rarely find elsewhere. Anyone who loves good Middle Eastern cuisine is definitely in the right place. The team is friendly and attentive, and you can tell they cook with passion. My suggestion for the restaurant: The atmosphere and cleanliness could use a little more attention; that would perfectly round off the overall experience. Nevertheless, the food, service, and value for money are excellent. I'll gladly come back and recommend Yalla Habibi to anyone who's in the mood for authentic, delicious food. Keep it up! 🙌

The best rice I've ever eaten, although the rest was also 5/5. I've never been so enthusiastic about rice as I am about this one. Top

Very bad treatment from workers

Very tasty, number 1 in Bielefeld

Yallah Habibi Restaurant Kesselbrink 3 // 33602 Bielefeld I got shawarma and crispy kebabs from Yallah Habibi Restaurant. And honestly, it was really delicious 😋 The meat was juicy, the spices were just right, and the salad was fresh and well-seasoned. The crispy kebabs were also great, but I would have liked a bit more of them because they were just so good. 🥰 The team was friendly and quick, and I'll definitely be back. Thanks for the delicious food, keep up the good work! 🙌

Best shawarma yet. And we've eaten many, even in other big cities.

The food is good and the service is excellent, but I have a small complaint regarding two small boxes of pickled consaloe with a small plate of fries, a cola and ayran for the price of 15. The prices are expensive, that's why they are very expensive, and we are not used to you like this, brother Ammar. The service is usually either free or at an acceptable price.

The food was good, and the service and atmosphere in the restaurant were excellent. Highly recommended!

Super delicious and, in my opinion, the best shawarma in Bielefeld! The price/performance ratio is reasonable, and you can pay with cash or card. Paid parking is available around Kesselbrink or in the underground garage. Seating is available upstairs, but unfortunately, there is no outside seating there, although you can find seating on Kesselbrink.

Ultra delicious Great value for money Won't be the last time

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Simply top-notch! The food is delicious and very clean, the portions are generous and filling. Most importantly, the service is absolutely outstanding – friendly, attentive, and with a smile. I will definitely be back and recommend this restaurant to everyone!"

The service is good, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is wonderful. It's worth a try. It's not the first time, and it won't be the last. May God bless you.

Incredible restaurant! We tried the kebabs for the first time and they were delicious... no, the next best thing! 😍 Since then, it's become one of our favorite places, and we go back often. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and the service is fast and friendly. Without a doubt, one of the best in the area. Highly recommended! 🌯🔥

The burgers are very bad. The chicken is very thin-hearted, the fried layer is toxic and burns your throat, and the fries are very badly fried and full of oil. The whole place smells fried.

It takes a very long time for the food to be ready. The quality is on the fast-food level, but there's a good selection. I found the atmosphere stressful and too warm.

We ate shawarma here for the second time and it did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and the price-performance ratio is also great here :)

Unclean and untidy...unclean tables and there are always food leftovers from the previous customer...and no table is cleaned

In my opinion, this is the best Arabic restaurant/snack bar in Bielefeld. The food is always delicious and fresh. The prices are quite reasonable; a shawarma roll costs €5.50. However, there are a few problems in my opinion: 1. Very long wait times, even for small orders (2 shawarmas take 20-25 minutes), even when it's not that busy. 2. Often, by the evening (after 8 p.m.), there are no skewers left. This means you can't get anything to eat... a real shame. 3. Despite seating upstairs, which is also separated from the kitchen downstairs, you often smell of grilled meat and smoke after your visit (combined with the long wait times).

The sandwiches (shish, crispy, and shawarma) were delicious. We were on a road trip and didn't expect the food to be this good. Good luck 💪

Unfortunately, the tzatziki was moldy! The vegetables were completely oversalted.

Top value for money - super tasty!

We were in Bielefeld for the first time and were very hungry after a long day of shopping and walking. We only have an appetite for oriental food 😅 We googled and nothing except Yala Habibi was open at that time. The photos didn't look particularly inviting but we were very, very hungry 😅. For us it was a big surprise that you can sit comfortably and enjoy the food and that it is also beautifully decorated. The food was very, very tasty and beautifully served and the pinch was ok too, we only paid 33 euros for 3 dishes and drinks. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of the food because we were very hungry 😁 When we are back in Bielefeld, we will eat here again. I recommend you order the halloumi roll, it was a 💣

The taste is very good, the style is smooth and the amount of food is great.

I felt very comfortable. The food was delicious, and the crew was very friendly. I would 100% recommend the restaurant.

Plus, delicious food, friendly service, and a fair price.

Excellent! Please 🙏 just enjoy it yourself!

A wonderful restaurant, shawarma, broasted chicken, rice, world-class service, respect, and everything is excellent.

Delicious food and excellent staff. 100% hygiene

Great service, delicious food, and friendly and kind treatment. I recommend it to everyone :)

I've eaten many shawarmas in my life, but Yallah Habibi's tastes by far the best! Simply perfect, and affordable too!

Bielefeld's tastiest halloumi roll

Shawarma was very tasty...I would love to come back and try the other dishes 😊

I don't know why other restaurants even try. This one wins. I ate probably the best rice of my life here, and the chicken is from another planet. ✨

Amazing food. Highly recommended. However, you can't walk around with gloves all the time, touching money, food, and cleaning rags. It needs to be more hygienic. Otherwise, 5 stars.

Fast, delicious, staff very nice too!

Very tasty food, the service is great, you are very well informed about the food contents and ingredients, very good and friendly team and service

Meals are often served late and customers are treated poorly.

In fact, they were very late, the wait was endless, and the service was poor.

The food tastes good, but employees can't touch everything with gloves on and then use them to prepare the food. It's not possible. Then they take off their gloves and continue preparing the food with sweaty hands through the gloves. Otherwise, 5 stars. But that's not right.

We were at the restaurant yesterday, honestly the level of the restaurant has dropped a lot compared to the first time we went there. I came from a different area, but everything was not good. The pies were very thick, the muhammara was very salty and without any additions, the shawarma meals were half and half, the coleslaw was completely tasteless, and the garlic cream had no taste of garlic. All of this except for the shooooob. Oh my God, they are making themselves miserable and putting on air conditioning.

Amazing food. Highly recommended. However, you can't walk around with gloves all the time, touching money, food, and cleaning rags. It needs to be more hygienic. Otherwise, 5 stars.

The most delicious shawarma I've ever eaten. The meat is fresh and very, very tasty.

It's not normal how nice the workers are and their spirits are good despite the pressure they are under. This is something that unfortunately has become rare in Arab restaurants. The food was very good and clean, and the waiting time was very acceptable. May God grant you success. A decent restaurant! The service was super friendly and attentive. The food looked fantastic – we came again for a treat!

The staff is really nice! The food was delicious, and everything was very cozy.😍

No card payment possible, how is that possible in 2025!

Very tasty food and very friendly customer service

Food is very greasy and carelessly made, tables are left dirty only the empty plates are cleared away so that the next person can eat over the sauces from the previous ones. Customer wishes are ignored. Unique experience and will not be repeated. Addendum: I accept the argument about card payment.

I have been living in Bielefeld since 2017, and many people have tried to operate this shop, but like Ammar, no one succeeded in it without courtesy. My name is Taybi and my servant is excellent. I wish the owner of the shop and his employees success.

Authentic shawarma the way it should be!!

One of the best meals I've had in a long time. I've been to many restaurants, but this one tops the list with its food!

If you get something different than what you ordered, the "nice" boy comes upstairs to loudly convince you that you ordered something else. Great customer service

Today I drove specially to Bielefeld from Herford with my children, 40 km back and forth, everything was free, everything was free, and when I arrived I wanted to order falafel, they didn't have half a chicken, and I wanted it too. I should wait 1 hour. They said they wouldn't do that anymore, so I went home with my children, thank you for nothing and never again.

Great food, super tasty!! Totally friendly staff. Can recommend it to everyone!

The best shawarma that anyone can eat, even though this is my first experience in Ramadan and the pressure of work, but it is really excellent.

We are there very often, the food tastes very good. It is cooked with love and always tastes fresh.

very tasty, fast and friendly service!

Super tasty, friendly staff, top service ❤️

Very amazing, good food and good service. Good luck, God willing 🩷

The food is very good and the service could not be better. I advise everyone to go there 🤩

Very, very tasty, nice service - we'll be back!

It was my first time eating a Syrian dish and I was pleasantly surprised. Delicious

Super tasty and everything fresh

The food is delicious, the staff is courteous and distinguished in customer service, and the restaurant’s atmosphere is beautiful and comfortable. We wish you continued success and the continuation of this wonderful approach. This place is very convenient, this person is happy and comfortable in the house, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is home and home. We are here to help you understand and engage with more people.

A great shop. The food was very good with lots of choice. Everything was freshly prepared. Service and the owner were very customer oriented. There were lots of seating options. The price, selection and service are right here. We will come back and can only recommend the shop 👍🏻

Delicious Arabic shawarma, fries also tasty and crispy. Large portions and fair prices.

Very tasty food! I had the shawarma plate. Great lunch spot.

I'm in love with shock. Incredibly good food, very filling, very friendly and nice staff, great ambience. I would give 10 stars. Definitely come back

Exactly the same snot as in every kebab shop of this kind. But here there is also the special feature that there are dealers, robbers and other shepherds hanging around the shop!

Delicious. Lg The Andalusia team

Average restaurant, the food was mediocre and the service staff was ok

Very tasty shawarma at a fair price. The staff is also very friendly.

Finally we have something delicious and pleasant in Bielefeld, thank you for the delicious food. Very nice atmosphere.

Very tasty, especially the way the food is seasoned and the fries are always crispy! The only thing is the long waiting time, but the store is doing well.

The jumbo burger is very tasty, fresh and big. It's definitely worth a try! 👍👍👍

Always worth a visit! Treat yourself to delicious food in a cozy atmosphere.

Very good place good food good taste

Delicious food and friendly service. Highly recommended!

If you plan to visit Prague, don't forget to try the delicious food at Yalla Habibi. I can highly recommend this restaurant. Everything was really delicious: the ambience and the food are just perfect.

"Abibi is simply an insider tip! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and you immediately feel at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, you can tell that they work here with passion. The food is a real highlight: fresh ingredients, perfect coordinated flavors and a creative presentation on the plate that tasted particularly good]. We will definitely be back and can recommend Abibi to anyone who values ​​excellent food and an all-round successful evening

Great fast food. Top location, quick preparation, fresh food, fair prices.

Very tasty and very good portions. I'm always happy when I eat there.

It tastes very good, I can only recommend it.

Very tasty and lasting taste Happy to recommend

I strongly do not advise you. I ordered a kebab sandwich and it was still raw and smelled bad and the taste was bad. I returned it. The staff were not friendly and had no experience in dealing with customers.

Very tasty food. Very nice employees. Very familiar

Top loading🤩 The food is great, the staff are the nicest I've seen and I would always recommend the food😍💗

A lovingly furnished ambience that invites you to feel good. The food is always fresh and always very tasty. The employees are very friendly and open to every request. Definitely a place where the family can get together and eat.

“We had a wonderful visit to the restaurant and the food was simply delicious! We were particularly impressed by the meat, which was prepared with aromatic Arabic spices. There is enough seating on the first floor, so we were able to eat comfortably. Highly recommended!”
