Habib RestoBar — Restaurant in Mandaluyong

My wife and I had dinner last Saturday May 25, 2024. It was a pleasant surprise to see the place renovated under new ownership and management. Cool fresh ambiance with good music from a huge tv set.

Extended menu offers lots of Persian food excitement. We tried HABIB Special Delight and Lamb Biryani.

Food appearance and taste certainly Persian - balance aroma taste and mild spice that used authentic ingredients though wanting for fruits and nuts.

Sanmig pale pilsen is served very cold poured in a turk skull mold beer mug.

Service is fast and 100% attentive yet they don't collect any service charge from customers. Crew members are pleasant and ATTENTIVE.

OVERALL if you live in Greenfield district and nearby, this resto-bar is a must try. Simple mild...

Not so authentic in taste aside from being pricey we were expecting na masarap but end up disappointed. Hahanapin mo yung aroma ng food esp the kebab. Was expecting to be flavorful since the owner is from the arab country but sabi nila this is Persian food eh known sila for flavorful spices eh. The kabsa is just plain steamed basmati rice. Ordering bread is ok esp the diff kinds of dips. No Service Water unlike in other arabian restos meron.Since after covid nde na daw sila nag serve ng service water, eh db required lahat ng resto to serve...

No sauces with the mains, no simple sides like onions or tomatoes, bland rice that tasted just like coloured rice, and not even free service water. For what they charge, these basics should be a given. At its current standard, I wouldn’t...
