Not all Ali Baba’s are the same. This one is solid. Everything is always fresh. Mohammad is super friendly. Has offered new sauces and hacks on the OG menu items.

Ordered beef and chicken shawarma, both good, you get to pick your vegetables and sauces. Size wise its convenient for one person, we also ordered falafel which I found a little spicy. Place its not cute to dine in, we ordered for take out and had at home! I asked for an extra tahini sauce and they were friendly and gave me two more little cups of it!

Came here on a Friday afternoon for lunch with 5 other people. The restaurant was quiet and we were served very quickly. I ordered the veggie platter and it came with falafel, garlic sauce and potatoes. I know other locations have more veggies like roasted vegetables, but the platter was very tasty and good value. It came with rice as well. I aso got the mango passion fruit juice and I highly recommend!

Their daily specials are a testament to their commitment to quality and flavor. On my most recent trip, I decided to sample everything on the specials menu. Each dish was a delicious reflection of Middle Eastern cuisine, featuring vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients.

The real charm of Ali Baba’s is how it elevates a mundane traffic jam into a culinary journey. The generous portions and diverse offerings made my drive north not just bearable but enjoyable.

I always pass by this place and figured I would try it. Food was very tasty and a good price. I order the chicken shawarma dinner which has chicken + choice of rice (regular yellow rice or Lentil rice) + potatoes + salad. PORTION look small at first but the guy kept adding more without me asking and I was pleased at the end. FLAVOR was very yummy and good overall. Salad looked fresh. Although there wasn’t much chicken on the grill it didn’t taste dry or likes it’s been roasting for a while. I was very good. PRICE was average. I paid like $12 for the plate on the pic I took. Overall the place was clean and service was fast. Very good place to try. PARKING- don’t pay for parking on king street. Go one block east and there’s free 2hr parking on Stanford Street !!! Enjoy
