Many patrons find the food to be a great value and appreciate the friendly, professional service, though experiences remain inconsistent.

I liek the rice here a lot & the cabbage salad is quite good, but the last few times I went but the chicken & beef were quite dried out & not that enjoyable, which is disappointing. Not my go to in the food court anymore, but decent.

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.

Sandwich froid, la caissière est très désagréable

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.

Baba in Complex Desjardins is a good spot for a quick meal. The shawarma is fairly ordinary & nothing special, but the fried potatoes that come with it are exceptional-crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, & easily some of the best in Montréal. While the main dish may not stand out, the fries alone make it worth stopping by. A solid choice if you're craving something simple with truly amazing sides.

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.

J'ai enfin retrouvé cette shawarma qui exprime les sensations culinaire que j'ai pu connaître au Liban & celle de mon enfance je recommande
