Its always a good dining experience here . Habibi is always the go to place for us if we have guests or a family feast . In a more recent visit the food we ordered was okay, it could have been cooked with much more taste but it was served timely so didnt matter to me that much . Also the serving staff did a good job.I would definitely recommend this place specially if you are with family and/or friends and want to enjoy a great meal .

Habibi at F-8 Markaz is one of the good dining places in Islamabad. Ambiance is good, service is also good and Very EXPENSIVE. It was not crowded at all when we visited during weekday. Food we tried was delicious.

A well-established restaurant. The service was good. The place was clean and had COVID19 precautions in places.We ordered three main dishes. Chicken was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. The goat karahi was really good as well. The Chaplli kebab was our main interest. These kebab tastes good just lacked the finishing touch that would make them great from good. A bit overcooked in high flames probably gave them darker crust and soft from inside. Could be a bit more spicy as well.Overall a very good experience.

It was fourth time on Ist November 2020 when I visited Habibi I-8, due to some compulsion and unfortunately again faced same situation of substand food and comparatively high rates. SOPs of Corona were also not being observed. Left the place with firm decision not to visit again.

They provide traditional food of Khyber Pakhtoon Khaw. Taste is good. Specially popular for its Kabuli Palao.#food

Review №37

Its quite a big restaurant located in the very busy and congested F-8 Markaz. The ambiance and décor is reasonable and at places, needs improvement.The quality of food is mediocre though the BBQ dishes are better prepared. Many of their dishes are very oily. Service is good. They need to improve the hygienic standards though.Parking could be a serious problem during working hours.

Review №38

Visited the restaurant yesterday, the environment and service were pathetic, multiple people had to share tables. We ordered Kabuli pulao, chicken karahi, roti and cold drinks as well as falooda and ice cream. Every thing was super expensive, a normal roti was for 20 rupees, ice cream was third grade coloured ice, falooda was cold water with tiny bits of kulfi sort of thing. Kabuli pulao was a plate which barely had GOSHT in it. Iam shocked that such a restaurant exists in Islamabad whose hype has been created so much. Never visit if you want to have fun and quality food, try a dhabba instead.

Normal nan roti were given to me as roghni nana which was a turn off. Secondly, chiken handi was not up to the mark. Regular customer sinces ages so I dont want to see the quality declining. Will give it a try again... if disapoints again them u have lost me as a customer.

Review №77

Wish I could give it a negative 5 rating. Worst experience ever. Visited this place last night with my family. As we entered the building messed up area, scattered items alongside broken staircase welcomed us. The main dinning halls have zero ambiance whatsoever with poor lighting. Above all, the staff specially the waiters supervisors dressed in black uniform are highly unprofessional and rude, they have no manners or experience to deal with the customers. The food quality or taste was very ordinary just like a normal street restaurant on the contrary the prices are higher. In short pathetic restaurant and management, regret going there. Guys if you still want to try Habibi, then go to I-8, Islamabad.

Afghan food is great. One of the best in town. Price is also reasonable considering its a fine dine restaurant. Great place for families and groups. Their platter is a cost effective dish for groups and families in which one gets to taste several dishes in a packaged meal. Environment and staff is also good
