Restaurant Baba receives generally positive feedback for fresh, high quality ingredients and a flavorful approach, with chicken noted as tender and juicy and enhanced by light spices, herbs and lemon, plus well cooked rice, crispy potatoes and a well balanced garlic sauce; the mango salad and fattoush are praised as tasty finishes, and staff are described as welcoming and the venue clean, making it a solid quick meal value in Montreal; however some visits report inconsistency, with chicken or beef sometimes dry or bland, salads not as fresh, and a few main dishes not meeting expectations, suggesting experiences can vary.
Je suis désolé de laisser mon avis, mais je suis déçu pour la qualité de nos plats aujourd'hui. Nous avons l'habitude de venir manger un pita au boeuf depuis aumoins une année avec ma copine, mais aujourd'hui nous avons payé pour deux plats dont la saveur manquait. C'est dommage, car nous aimons beaucoup venir içi. Je laisse mon avis en espérant la considération des cuisiniers pour que notre prochaine fois (ainsi que celle de tous ses clients) soit meilleure.

Working very quickly. As an English speaker I was able to communicate well with the French speaking staff. Generous portions. Not my favorite flavour profiles personally but overall good & filling .

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...
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.
As someone who grew up in the Middle East, I am incredibly critical of middle eastern food, but I have to say, this place is spectacular. Seems very unassuming - mall food court, yet it's genuinely a hidden gem. I got the chicken shawarma plate & everything was delicious; the hummus (actually tasted authentic & not like the garbage they sell at the grocery store), the chicken was juicy with crispy edges, the rice was aromatic, & the salads were actually salads & not some dry greens. I'm very impressed. Will certainly come again next time I'm in Montreal.
I absolutely loved their chicken shawarma. Amazing. The chicken was juicy, everything was fresh. Yum. I highly recommend this place. I went in & placed another order for the same, it was that good !! 🥹
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.
