Reviews for Ali Baba Mid Eastern Restaurant in Newark, DE
This is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. The staff is fantastic and attentive and the food is delicious. I have... eaten here 3 times this year and have yet to have a bad dish. Everything is delicious. Highly recommend the salmon entree, thelamb tajeen, and the vegetarian platter. Read more
Went again late evening, as usual outstanding. The vegetarian platter, $16, makes a great appetizer for more than 2. We had the... Lamb Tajeen, which is stewed Moroccan Lamb with a rice that called a curry rice but much better. And the stewed Moroccanchicken, spicy. We had plenty to take home, either of the 3 dishes is enough for 2 but I have been going there for about 15years and know leftovers is the smart move. Picture is the veg platter and carrot salad a favorite. Read more
Quite an authentic vibe, and the food is SO dank. There's even a hookah bar if you're into that. If you're not, you can eat... inside and will not have any interaction with the hookah bar. But highly recommend this place. It's very good. Well priced too. Read more
12 Jul 2022: solo dinner. Ordered Mujadra($16). Vegetarian and healthy. Good taste with the supporting pickled veggies and... tahini. Has middle eastern artsy vibes. Staff was courteous and pleasant. A star deducted because the bread was sub par, I?vehad amazing in similar places. Overall recommendation: good for dining in Read more
Everything was great. I had just returned from a trip to Morocco and they are representing the cuisine quite accurately. Was... surprised how similar it was to some of the food I ate there on the streets. Some stuff on the menu is more general to theMiddle East too and not specific to one country. Get some hummus and mint tea if you just want a snack. They eat Tagineliterally all the time there so I would get that as a meal if you aren't familiar with the cuisine. Read more
My friend and i were craving for good hummus and chicken kebabs. We searched on google and this place came up. We ended up going... there with a lot of expectations because of the reviews that were posted on google. AND the place did NOT disappoint. We orderedhummus which was served within 5 minutes. It came with 3 huge pita breads. They were good, could have been evern better if theywere served warm. Hummus was scrumptious. Next came the chicken kebabs in ~ 15 minutes. The chicken was really tender and juicy.One of the best Mediterranean food i have had!!! Read more
This was our first time here and we really enjoyed ourselves. The vibe is just right. Music, hookah and bomb food. I had the... salmon and it was delicious!! Highly recommended. Fries and hummus were also great! My boyfriend had chicken kabobs and hereally enjoyed it. He stayed in the Middle East for some time, so I know the food is good if he thinks so! Oh..the staff isamazing!! We will definitely be back. 10/10 Read more
