Sababa Mediterranean Grill

I flew into CMH from Orlando and was looking for a Mediterranean place near the airport and on my way south of the city. Easy to order from menu and the manager was very helpful answering questions. Chipotle type setup for med food. Love the concept!I ordered the Mezze Platter (3 appetizers). My 3 choices were falafels, grape leaves and baba ganoush. You could see most of the food from the counter and everything looked very fresh. The presentation was A+ for a faster food type restaurant with pinches of herbs and spices applied, along with a drizzle over the grape leaves. The restaurant is very clean and orderly. The service was great and friendly. I will definitely be back the next time I go through Columbus.

Pros:Relatively easy to find next to car washParking availableAmple dining area if you want to eat thereCan order ahead onlineCons:hummus lacked flavorpita was coldfries were mushygyro pita was ok - have had better at other Mediterranean places even though I ordered ahead, my food was cold when I picked upPro tip:It will take some effort to navigate to this restaurant, so use your GPS and have patience

Outstanding food and service. Came in for lunch and made a Greek salad. This place is like the Chipotle of Greek and Mediterranean foods. Everything is fresh and they put it together for you as you watch, along with half a dozen different sauces. It was delicious. Ample room for seating.One of the guys that I was with at the gyro and french fries, I can tell you that those french fries were the best french fries I have ever had

I've been going here for years! I've seen the changes throughout the years. I used to go more often when I worked right by it. But I'm still a regular. Either I pick it up or my husband does. It's like a Mediterranean style Chipotle. You choose your base, protein, & toppings. Salad, fries, rice, or pita bread. Chicken, lamb, falafel, or shawarma chicken. The main dessert they sell is baklava. You can get pita on the side & they'll slice it for you which can be a good addition to your bowl. You can order fries on the side. I like their shawarma & medium dressing. The flavors of the food combinations are so good, which is why I always come back. Shawarma has curry spices in it. My friends from out of town crave this place & they wish they had one where they live.It's always clean. Service is decent.By the way, they have an app. You scan the bar code every time you go & your 13th bowl is free. Then it starts over. I used to have trouble with it in the past especially when it was time for the free bowl & it was hard to prove. I stopped using it.

It's nice to find a Mediterranean place in the Blacklick area. There was ample parking available on the side of the building which also housed a Starbucks, a T-Mobile, and a nail spa.My husband ordered a bowl with fries as the base and spicy Greek meat protein. He said it was flavorful and he finished his whole meal. I had the Greek fries and they were delicious and plentiful.

Sababa is a great fast casual option on Broad Street near Blacklick and Reynoldsburg. The service was friendly and quick. The house rice has an amazing mix of spices that makes your meal smell as good as it looks. I had the gyro meat which was also perfectly seasoned and fresh. The house sauce is the traditional garlicky type sauce you find at most places but they offer it in mild, medium or hot which I love. The medium was perfect...not too hot. They have lots of veggie topping choices, other sauces and spreads that I look forward to trying in the future. They were also grilling pita bread which looked great. Prices for bowls were just under $10. A good value nowadays for a well portioned bowl. I highly recommend stopping in.

Mediterranean version of Chipotle -- count me in! A little bit outside the city limits but if you find yourself in the Blacklick/Reynoldsburg area, give it a try.I got a bowl with rice as the base, gyro meat for protein, and a variety of toppings. Finished off with spicy feta and medium house sauce, with tzatziki on the side to spread at my leisure.Although the proteins are kept in a heated tin, they do throw your portion on the grill briefly to heat it up even more before adding it to your entree which was a nice touch. The bowl was pretty good but does have some very intense flavors, led by the cinnamon rice. Next time, I would leave out the banana peppers as the acidity from these didn't mesh well with the rest of the ingredients.The staff was very friendly and the inside was clean and well maintained. 4 stars in my book!

STO. WHAT. YOURE. DOING. & come here !!! Amazing quick serve Mediterranean food! The stuffed grape leaves, Y'ALL! Clean & tidy joint with cozy seating. Mujaddara is 10/10! Spicy Feta w/ FRESH WARM pitas! 10/10!

Sababa is one of my go-tos when I am in town visiting family. Everything I've ever tried here has been SO GOOD. I typically get a shawarma chicken bowl with half rice/half lentils and ALL the toppings. I always add spicy feta, and you should too. Trust me. I usually get the house sauce, but have started trying the others and love them all. The price is great for the amount of food you get. Ample parking lot. Staff is nice.

Food was really good and reasonably priced! Service was fabulous. We will definitely be back!
