Amazing food that’s a great price for the portions, and you can taste they use good quality ingredients. Their cake slices taste wonderful and are big. Fun drinks. Large, open, clean atmosphere. Perfect for chatting or working for the afternoon. You can definitely get away with spending
Baba's catered our off-site event and delivered not only the best tasting but the most beautiful food! The customer service was amazing - friendly, easy going, very prompt and communicative. The presentation was gorgeous - full of color and beautifully arranged. The food was some of the best we've had - rave reviews from all of our guests. 10/10!
Smelled really yummy right off the bat The waygu shwarma sandweesha was really well seasoned and tender. The potatoes that came with it we lightly spicy but really good. The two dipping sauces were also good. The hummus bi lahme was super delicious but there was not enough pita bread with it. Seating options were a bit unique.
We were recommended to try the Ba'bacon hummus bowl at Baba's Minnesota State Fair stand, and even though it's not something we would usually order, we're so glad we did. It was surprisingly delicious! 🤤 The dish started with a creamy sour cream and onion hummus base and was topped with beef bacon, crispy sumac tater tots, and caramelized onions. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with a great mix of creamy, crispy, and savory. It was a total standout and one of the best things we had at the fair!
🥙✨ Baba Hummus is a great spot for anyone who loves authentic Middle Eastern food! The flavors are rich and fresh — especially the hummus and kebabs 👌. Service is friendly, and the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit if you’re craving real Mediterranean taste. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
