First time visiting Babalu and the experience made us wonder why we hadn't been there sooner. We had reservations for Saturday... evening, which the restaurant staff called to confirm on Friday afternoon. The size of this place is pretty small (I could bemiscounting but maybe only 10 tables and no large ones), which only added to the overall charm. The atmosphere was comfortableand inviting, and we loved the I Love Lucy theme, from the restaurant name to the TV over the bar to the large mural of Lucy andRicci in the service area. When we were seated and the server came to introduce himself, he asked if it was our first timethere and we were surprised to be given a $10 gift card for next time we come back.(We definitely will and what a great ideafrom the restaurant owner to start out with that.) We had looked at the menu online before we went and still weren't sure whatto order because there were so many delicious sounding options. We shared the beet and roasted baby carrot salad that our serverrecommended (apparently a special that night) for an appetizer. I had the paella and hubby had the vaca frita. Both wereflavorful and absolutely delicious. Loved the flavor and presentation of the pitcher of red sangria (worth it if there's two ofyou and you're having more than one each), which is served in a carafe bubbling with dry ice. For dessert we shared theflourless chocolate cake with ice cream. Everything was superb. As an aside, I noticed the menu had a note to ask about theirvegan options. Our server was gracious, chill (in a good way) and not at all intrusive as we were having several relativelydeep conversations as we ate. He checked in on us exactly the right amount. We had to wait a bit long for the dessert so heoffered us an after dinner drink while we waited, which we definitely took him up on. As a side note, the final bill wassurprisingly reasonable and we almost thought something must have been missing from the total. True value! Overall, w Read more

Amazing authentic experience! These guys earned a great review. I went with my GF for the first time and the service was... terrific! The staff was so genuine and kind, it made us feel comfortable and relaxed. The atmosphere was perfect. The staff madehonest, genuine conversations and recommendations that were 100% on point. The food was mouthwateringly delicious! I would 100%recommend Babalu and will be back. Karl and Wendy took care of us at the bar. We went with the price fix menu, which filled usup, and then took some home. Mushroom Empanadas! MUST HAVE! Even if you don't like mushrooms (like me)! Hard to describe, it'sjust full of marinaded peppers and deliciousness with a dipping sauce. Avocado salad. Fresh and outstanding. Pernil. Outstandingflavor and so juicy! Cuban twist on banana foster for dessert was Very good. The chef came out of the kitchen to make sure ourfood was to our liking. Very kind staff! For drinks, we went with a rum flight and a tequila flight. The Rum flight was ourpersonal favorite of the two and at the same time, try a Coconut cream margarita! It was great. The value of this place istough to beat. The prices are great. This is one of those small yet, quality restaurants run by people who care about yourexperience. That makes me feel like going out is worth it. Babalu doesn't sell you food- they give you an experience. Read more
Found this place from a recommendation on a FB group I'm in. I am so happy I told a friend of mine about it and we chose to pick... it for our birthday dinner. We stopped in on a Thursday night and we're not disappointed. The decor to the staff to thefood...everything was fantastic! It's small enough to make you feel like you're being catered to, but not sitting on top of eachother. We started with an appetizer of Mofungo with Pernil (I could order that with a a salad and would be satisfied). Our mainswere a roasted chicken dish and ropa vieja. I'd get everything again, but also want to try everything else on the menu. We gotthe tres leches cake and a hazelnut bread pudding with cafe con leche ice cream. We were so excited when these came out weforgot to take a picture. Both were delicious. I will definitely be back. Read more
