    The lamb gyro plate was good. Fries crispy. Falafel plate and hummus were ok. They need to change their oil but all good otherwise. No carbonated drinks are available, but tea and lemonade.

    Delicious

    So fresh and delicious! Baklava is the bomb! Owner is so cute and sweet, no disappointments:-)

    Great little restaurant in a rather industrial part of Hendersonville, NC. Small with maybe 10 double seating at a table. You order at counter and they bring to you. Daily specials with drink at around $10. I ordered the lamb gyro and friend ordered the chicken one and they were hot and juicy with nice size Greek salad or French fries as a side. Owners are from Jerusalem which surprised me ... always pleasantly though!

    To go falafel and hummus pita and Greek salad!

    This place is authentic and delicious! They have great combos with a lot of food- hummus, baba gannoush, falafel or traditional gyros. Owner is from the Middle East and even offers belly dancing lessons. My only complaint, wish they were open for dinner every night!

    The Isle salad. Yum!!

I loved how light and fresh it was. They make everything to order and it's worth the wait. If we had one near where I lived, I'd go all the time! Everyone was so friendly. It was a bit pricey but it's worth it. Their food is made with top notch ingredients.

I was starving and saw their booth and a chalkboard of menu options I've never tried or heard of before. I approached and when asked what I would like, I was honest that I was unfamiliar with their cuisine but I trusted them. They asked how I wanted it and I said "how you would eat it! They made me the most incredible meal that has ever passed my lips. I followed Habibi Village on their Instagram so I could chase that high- and boy did I. I NEEDED more of that unique deliciousness. But I was saddened that I was only able to get their Za'aatar once or twice a week and had to travel to multiple spots around the city to a variety of markets and at such limited hours. It is with all of the joy in my heart to support Habibi Village at their brick-and-mortar location as they have grown to a full time spot. Their owner absolutely POURS his soul and spirit into this business and into every meal he serves the community. Plenty of restaurant owners love what they do and love their patrons but this owner stands above and beyond when it comes to passion. This gentleman cares about his food and his patrons on a deep and genuine level that you feel and taste. I clearly can't praise Habibi Village enough. Thank you for what you do for our community and our bellies!

    I haven't found an enormous amount of Middle Eastern cuisine in Asheville, but this place brought…read morethe vibe. It's small and unassuming in a strip mall in West Asheville. My takeout was ready on time. While the falafel roll still might have been better fresh, I wanted something that I could plausibly eat several hours later on a mountain without a ton of restaurants nearby, and that choice worked out well. Many falafel rolls come with add-ons that I don't like, but the pickled turnip offering here was both flavorful and colorful. I also got their fries, drizzles with tahini and parsley, which is a good way to eat fries. A case of baked goods and a small market section of canned items were also available. There was certainly space to eat inside or out for someone without my travel schedule. It's also notable that in addition to the usual falafel, they offer ample vegan options as befits the Asheville community, including a house seitan and some other vegetable and fake meat options. I was happy with what I got, but the choice is always appreciated.

    Service and ambiance was successful. I got the Lamb & Beef Shawarma (consisting of mint cabbage…read moreslaw, pickles, toom, tomato, parsley and tarator) on a GF pita, but I got it Suzy's Way, meaning with the addition of fries and hot sauce combined with the other ingredients. The flavors were an absolutely beautiful Middle Eastern combo, and taking it Suzy's Way added a slight kick to the flavor. The pita was properly warmed as well. Overall, this is where to go if you've got a seriously empty stomach and are craving Middle Eastern cuisine.

We originally fell in love with the Chicken Kabobs, but after trying the salmon, it quickly became our favorite dish. The salmon is perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. We live in Asheville, so dining at Pomegranate on Main is always a special treat. We especially love the cranberry basmati rice and always ask to substitute it for the basmati rice mixed with dill and lima beans. Our waiter, Christian W., happily made the change for us. Christian provided outstanding service throughout our meal--friendly, attentive, and eager to ensure everything was just right. We also love the Pomegranate Martini and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys martinis. During this visit, we were skipping alcohol, and Christian suggested the Pomegranate Mojito instead. It was refreshing, flavorful, and absolutely delicious--a perfect non-alcoholic option. What keeps us coming back is the consistency. The food is always excellent, the service is always top-notch, and the entire dining experience is one we look forward to every time. Pomegranate on Main is well worth the trip, and we highly recommend it!
