Coconut sorbet and Turkish pot de creme
Jershawn H.

All the courses from this restaurant are exploding with flavors from the 1st course being the African peanut stew and deviled eggs, the 2nd course being the baharat chicken and the kofta kebabs and 3rd course being the coconut sorbet and Turkish pot de creme. All 3 courses are extremely good. They are slightly spicy but not too spicy that you can't eat and taste the rest of the flavors. The Turkish pot de creme and coconut sorbet are a hit and you won't go wrong choosing either one but the sorbet was my favorite. It's very creamy and delicious but like I said you can't go wrong if choosing the Turkish pot de creme. Baba is a must try if looking for some place to eat during restaurant week. The ambiance is very chill and relaxing with low light setting and the service is chill with no rush or pressure.

Deviled Eggs (4) for $14
Wendi K.

4.5 Stars A cozy spot with high quality, unique, Middle Eastern fusion fare. It is on the pricey side for sure but I think the food warrantees it. Think, small shareable plates from $15-30 range. We came as a group of 6 and ordered waaay too much food. The drinks were great. I enjoyed the Velvet Smoke ($16) - the cinnamon, blood orange, and smoky mezcal meld so beautifully. Appetizers: * Deviled Eggs ($14) - GET THESE, they are your classic creamy rich deviled eggs with warm spices added * Kawarma ($20) - Hummus with Lamb - awesome * Whipped Feta with Honey ($18) - also awesome * Latkes ($15) - crispy and addcictive Entrees: * Shakshuka ($25) - as good as shakshuka gets * Turkish Mac & Cheese ($22) - good and creamy with pistachios on top - interesting but would not recommend * I didn't try it but everyone was raving about the chicken kabob ($25) Desserts: * Turkish Pot de Creme ($12) - I LOVE cardamon in desserts Pot omg, that whipped cream with cardamon I could eat everyday * Baba's Baklava ($14) - excellent * Dubai Chocolate Pistachio Kataifi ($14) - the only thing our table did not like. It was salty and we couldn't find the chocolate. So strange. They explained it was new on the menu and needed some tweaking, and kindly comped it. Staff are super nice :) The PITA is to die for - it's fresh, warm, and fluffy.

Crispy Falafel (5)
Danielle V.

I can't. Not anymore. I can no longer go to a Mediterranean restaurant and be satisfied unless it's Baba. This has changed me. Gorgeous little place, could have used some candles on the tables, but clean, and fitting decor. Service was relaxed and on it as far as never letting you be without what you need. The food... layers of flavors that you'd not expect- even in a place like this. I've been to so many but nothing has left me staring at my mom across the table wondering if I should stomp my feet or walk to the back and thank the chef. Hit up during happy hour, the deviled eggs are amazing. Had to request without chili oil for my mom. The falafel/ wow. The WHIPPED FETA and pita. Come ON!- there are flavors that shouldn't be allowed and I'm so glad they are. Never had a soft pillowy fresh one before. The chicken kabob..the caramel.. the chili flakes.. I could drink that. Used the rest of my pita to sop it up. Beef lamb kabob was stunning- almost at the top of my personal heat limit. Had the chocolate pistachio torte.. so good. I will have to come back next time I'm in town. PLEASE GO HERE.

Deviled Eggs
Katie H.

The spot: this is a really cool spot! Inside is open, the chairs are comfy, the decor was inviting and felt very fitting for the cuisine. Service: service was slow. We waited quite a bit to order our food and then for our drinks, and it just kind of continued with the rest of the meal. I am going to allow grace, because it was restaurant week and they were very busy! Our server ended up giving us the wrong dessert (it was still yummy), but he comped a drink for me. He was very apologetic, and it all worked out. The food: we loved it! The food had so much flavor and was so yummy! My husband started with the deviled eggs and I started with the potato latkes. Both were delicious! The eggs were totally unique and so good! The potatoes were perfectly crispy and the spicy tzatziki they are served with was perfect on them! For our entrees I got the Kofta Kabab and my husband got the Turkish Mac and Cheese. Again, both so good! The kabob was cooked perfectly, the flavor of the keeled rice they are served with was amazing. It was sweet, but also savory at the same time. My husband really enjoyed his mac and cheese as well. It was also unique and the cheese was so good. Lastly the dessert, while it wasn't what we ordered, it was still great. It had a wonderful flavor and texture. It was a great experience! We will definitely visit again!

Menu on the outdoor patio - June 2025
Bri K.

Came here recently on a weekday with some coworkers who were in town and we sat outside on the patio. We ordered a variety of small plates and bites from the menu to share family style and I can't say there was one dish we didn't enjoy. Definitely get extra pita - you'll use it! Only less than positive comment was that we didn't love the bottle of Sauvignon Blanc we ordered - it was very sweet. I'd love to see Baba offer more Maryhill or other local KY/Spokane wines on the menu in the future.

Hummus & Deviled Eggs
Derrick G.

This is a great Mediterranean Restaurant, located in a scenic area of Spokane Washington. I visited during happy hour and ordered several items from the happy hour menu and one for them from the regular menu; everything that I order was outstanding. The dishes had a very complex and bold flavors, and the service was outstanding. The happy hour menu was very affordable. This is a great place of you are vegetarian, there are many meatless options, as well as numerous meat options on the menu. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Cool cocktails. They were able to amend our order due to my partners celiac. Yummy food!

They have amazing cocktails and can amend some dishes if you have allergies. Yummy food!

Oyster Mushroom Souvlaki
Joyce C.

I had found Baba through Yelp and visited on a Wednesday evening not realizing the Market event was also happening the same evening. Overall, I did enjoy the food. Ordered the Kawarma and King Oyster Mushroom Souvlaki. I don't know if the hummus used for the Kawarma is the same that is on the menu by itself or with the wild mushrooms. I would think it was as this would be the most efficient for the kitchen. On the menu, it does say that the hummus is silky smooth. What I received, while yummy, I would not describe as silky smooth. I have had the opportunity to travel to Israel where the hummus is amazing and the consistency they are able to achieve, I still have not found here. So not sure if that's a fair comparison or what they were aiming for. The spiced lamb was flavorful but a bit salty for me. I do wish it was in slightly smaller pieces so it would be easier to pick up with the pita without needing utensils. I loved the fresh pita that came with the hummus. Personal preference, would have loved it more if it was toasted a bit longer so there was some more chew to the pita. The King Oyster Mushroom Souvlaki was a super simple but super yummy tasting dish. I love just about anything mushroom so could not go wrong with this choice. I would have ordered, if it was an option on the menu, a side of pickled veggies but I did not see that. I think it would have helped break up the salt in the lamb.

Labneh Toast
Sofia O.

The food was delicious and very fresh--the servings are ample, and everyone in my (picky) family loved what we got. The smashed potatoes were lovely, and the eggs were poached absolutely perfectly. Service was excellent and very prompt, without being hovering. Our waitress was friendly and sweet. The interior is also really nice, with large murals, and a modern-meets-vintage feel. I was shocked that brunch was not more busy, but it's going to be my go-to spot.

4.5?? That's wrong. 5 all day. Flavors all on point. Deviled eggs and honey whipped feta with the preserved lemon

We sat outside on a lovely Friday evening. Our food was on point and so flavorful. Our server was attentive.

Shakshuka (Red Pepper Stew), Fofta Kofta Kebab (2)

The food was ABSOLUTELY amazing and delicious. My friend and I didn't really talk for a solid 15 minutes because we were eating our food so seriously. Am personally a Shakshuka lover, and it was absolutely worth it. (The best part was definitely the naan bread!) The waitress and hostess were both so sweet and nice! The ambiance here is also so nice, with plenty of room between tables and kid friendly! Definitely recommend coming to eat here!

No one asked if we'd made a reservation. I eventually asked a server at the bar if we should seat ourselves because we'd been standing there for so long. No, someone will help you soon. A host walked up. He was eating something. When he got to the host stand, he finished his food, took a big drink and wiped his hands before making eye contact with us. He said the wait would be 15 minutes. We sat down in the lobby. We were seated at a community table. The couple to our right finished their meal, paid the bill and left. Their seats were bussed. This all happened before our server greeted us. We ordered coffee. We waited. And waited. I scanned the restaurant for our server - or any server- to ask about our drinks and place our food order. No one else approached the table. Still no coffee. It had been 30 minutes. We decided to leave. The host realized we were leaving. He offered to find our server, pay for our meal, seat us somewhere else. He practically chased us out of the restaurant. I appreciated the sentiment but it was too little, too late and my teenage daughter was super uncomfortable with his approach. I was excited to eat at House of Brunch. I won't be back.

The inside as shown in my picture is very charming and old timey. Allow time to wait for a table unless you are just one or two like I was and able to grab a seat at the bar. I was able to sit immediately. The staff is very amiable and the hostess made the recommendation that I try the Caprese Benedict, which had fried tomatoes in place of bread, fresh basil and blood orange balsamic drizzle. They offer the option of one or two Benedict, which is nice if you aren't super hungry. They also give the option to smother the hashbrowns and cheese, which I obviously opted into. The menu is absolutely massive though, so if Benedict's or even breakfast aren't your jam, you should be able to find something that suits your fancy. Also worth noting that they offer a very wide variety of gourmet flavors of house-made juices (7 or 8) for mimosas, like honeydew melon mint which I tried as a soda with soda water since I was driving.

Started off with a Perfect Peach & Huckleberry Lemonade Mimosas that were divine! Everything on the menu sounded amazing so we ultimately decided on the chicken and biscuit with country gravy, the Honey Gochujang chicken sandwich with fries and the verde Hash with eggs on the side. The chicken and biscuit was a winner but be prepared for the food coma afterwards- worth every bite! Their fried chicken is perfectly seasoned and moist. I'm glad we shared the chicken sandwich because it would have been too much , too sweet, on its own. I was Expecting to get more heat but it was mostly sweet- could have used more of a tangy slaw and house dill pickles for texture and acidity. The title with Honey in it should have tipped me off. The Verde Hash was the best hash I've ever had and a generous portion. The use of roasted poblano peppers, red peppers, carnitas and potatoes was taken to next level with the feta cheese on top! Great flavor profile and big enough portion to share. I can't forget to mention the delightful server who patiently gave suggestions and went out of her way to make our first Bruncheonette Experience memorable.
