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.

Considérez mon avis comme le plus récent & je prends très rarement le temps de donner des avis. J'ai été agréablement surprise après avoir mangé chez BABA. Dans chaque bouchée on sent la fraîcheur, la qualité & la passion du travail derrière. Les aliments utilisés sont de première qualité, comme le poulet à qui suffisent quelques arômes d'épices, d'herbes & de citron car tout est dans la qualité. Le but n'est pas de supprimer le goût du poulet mais de le mettre de l'avant. Tendre & juteux, contrairement aux autres commerce similaires. On sent le citron dans la sauce à l'ail. Ils ne noient pas vos assiettes les sauces, choses que tous les autres commerces font également. J'ai eu la chance de goûter la salade de mangue, un délice en fin de repas. Les patates tendres & croustillantes, le riz parfaitement cuit, la vinaigrette du fatouch parfaitement équilibrée. Pour ce qui est du staff, rien à dire. Généreux en sourire & en accueil, à l'image de leur commerce, d'une propreté médicale.

J'habite à Montréal depuis 20 ans & je suis particulièrement difficile niveau restaurant sans parler des food courts, où je ne mange quasiment jamais. J'ai été trop souvent déçue, sans oublier mon estomac très sensible. Je ne trouve jamais tout à 100% de mon goût & la fraîcheur laissée très souvent à désirer, à Montréal, sans même parler du prix qui n'en vaut vraiment pas la peine. J'aurais souhaité mettre plus d'étoiles!!!

I honestly didn't expect it to be this good. The potatoes were some of the best I've ever had, the garlic sauce was perfectly made, & the shawarma sandwich was delicious.
Coming from Ottawa, I have to admit that Montreal has some of the best Middle Eastern food.

I got the mixed version. All I can say it was just full of oil (the meat the rice, the potatos). The sauce was terrible, & they didn't go with the flavor of the meat. The vegetables were not fresh, & they tasted weried. It tasted awful. I don't recommend this.

I ordered a beef shawarma pita trio & it was the best one I ever had. The potatoes were amazing & the extra garlic sauce was the cherry on top. Great food, amazing value.

This located inside shopping mall food court. Had mix shawarma plate good taste but service staff could explain meal before add bcs some sauce I don't like but they added without asked that's the only issue. But food fast food comparing other places.

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.
