Review Summary

Overall, reviews paint a mixed picture of Baba with some dishes flagged as inconsistent: some find the chicken dry and the salad not fresh and a few experiences end with upset stomach, while others praise the rice and the cabbage salad and describe the shawarma and beef as flavorful, with the potatoes and garlic sauce often highlighted as exceptional and the extras making the meal worthwhile. The fries are frequently described as a standout, sometimes said to be among the best in Montreal, and the price is seen as good value by many. Service is mentioned as pleasant but could be friendlier, and several comments urge more consistent quality, but there are strong recommendations for simple, quick meals with notable sides.

Food court style Lebanese food is hard to nail & this place doesn't seem to do enough to separate itself over your usual boustan/basha/Amir-tier place. Despite the heart & uplifting spirit of its joyful staff, the shawarma/shishtaouk meat ends up dry & of ungenerous portion because its pre-cut & left to cook-off. Fatouch salad feels uninspired & generic. Perhaps their strength lies in their grills... But in a world where grilled specialized places exist, I fear they need to improve the freshness of their meat or disappear...

It's the place where you can enjoy authentic Lebanese food. I eat here at least once every week.

It's a Lebanese restaurant, we got the chicken & beef grill & a shawarma. Food is prepped fresh, but it took a while. We're not Lebanese, but it sure tasted great. Garlic sauce was the most flavorful I've ever tasted. The fried potatoes & beef were really tasty. The chicken shawarma was a bit dry though.

They make really good shawarma & garlic potatoes. They are also generous enough to fill your box. The owners are very professional & friendly . However, sometimes their employees make mistakes on orders : I visited this place several times & had my order wrong few times alongside other customers. Can't really blame them because this shopping center is brutally busy during lunch/dinner hours, but still. Overall, a really good place for Lebanese food. I wish this place can have more branches of, they can maintain this quality
