The food was nice but I didn't think worth the cost. I feel this way with every place in Kendall Yards I have tried. I felt our waitress had too many tables for just her and the food came out very slow. Nice dining area. Give it a shot you may enjoy it more than I did. read more

Excellent, flavorful food. I was visiting Spokane and decided to try this place based upon the reviews and it did not disappoint. I got the hummus and pita, chicken skewers and falafel and all were great. I also asked for a side of the chili crunch oil which was a nice spice addition to the meal. read more

Food: 5/5 Drinks: NA Service: 3/5 Location + Interior: 5/5 Value: 3/5 Flavors are so good! I love a spin on some of the classics, elevated dishes with some surprises that made it a really great dining experience. We didn't get to try any drinks, but will be back in the future. The location is in Kendall Yards and so it makes for a great stop when shopping or enjoying the events in the area. Interior is updated, but still has applicable decor. Our waitress was very slow to get us our check and box us up - looking elsewhere when taking our order, it was strange. Small portions and steep prices, YOU PAY FOR LOCATION. read more

Loved it and had a great ambiance Everything was good. However I wouldn't order the lamb and clams again. It was pretty good but not on the same level as everything else. The beet hummus was fire. read more

I love love love baba! Their food is so unique and delicious. I've been to baba a few times there and I always leave full and happy! I usually order a drink when I stop in and their use of rose always amazes me! Their desserts are perfect, not too sweet. If you're wanting to try a restaurant that's different than any other in Spokane, I suggest you make a reservation :) their staff is quite lovely as well! Last time I went in, I noticed a drink that I wanted was no longer on the menu and our waitress was so kind to get the recipe for me. Baba, is perfect for a large group, small meeting, and even a date. I love baba and it's usually one of the first places I think of when someone asks me where to go for lunch or dinner in Downtown Spokane! read more

Baba restaurant - Mezze Plate with fresh pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Excellent food, great atmosphere. Had a lovely evening. Everything we ordered exceeded expectations.

This was my first time here after being recommended by a friend. She was right, they have the best fresh pita! The baba bowl was nice, full of colors and flavors. We had their brunch menu but I'd definitely come back for lunch or dinner. We did order a fourth entree which did take quite a bit of time, but was ultimately alright. Food was great and the staff was friendly and apologized for our wait on food. read more

Baba restaurant - baba Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Firstly the ambiance and service was nice. Love the decor and we were so excited about the interesting menu. Turkish coffee was served in adorable tiny shot glasses/cups on a tray but at $14 for two shots of espresso it wasn't worth it. Plus it wasn't as strong or thick as it should be. The whipped feta appetizer was delicious! Only bummer is that for $18 you get ONE super flat & thin pita. We ordered a 2nd one to finish the dip and was charged $5.50 for ONE pita!! I ordered the mushroom gyro with the smashed potatoes. I can't tell you how disappointed I was with every aspect of the meal. The mushrooms were slimy, the rest was a medley of veggies that had different sauced & flavors and didn't go together at all. The mushrooms especially were horrible- and I'm a huge fan of mushrooms. The potatoes were just three small not quite fully boiled potatoes. No sauce, just hard potatoes. Yuck. For $20 My son got the chicken gyros and there was barely any chicken in it and it was very plain. I've got much larger gyros from Pita Pit with more flavor and way more ingredients for far less money. Again, $20... Fries were good, very tasty and crispy. My mom got the feta mac & cheese and it was tasty. Came out piping hot and very creamy. The pistachios on the top were an interesting addition that she enjoyed. My son ordered a cherry limeade that was delicious. All together this lunch was $111 before tip and only one person was satisfied with their meal- tho we did all enjoy the appetizer. read more

We stopped into Baba during the night market and sat on the patio. What a beautiful evening it was, great spot for people watching! We ordered a couple drinks, I had the Z'atar Old Fashioned and it was incredibly delicious, love the brûléed orange, such a fun touch! Also tried the mushroom and chicken kabob, both were so different from a flavor palate perspective, two beautiful plates of food and extremely tasty. Baba's menu has some really interesting offerings, I can't wait till next time I am in town so I can try more dishes, this is a really lovely restaurant with a fun and eclectic mix of dishes, the staff are very friendly, highly recommend for a date night or just night market people watching! read more

Great food, good service. Nice restaurant, interior etc. Definitely would recommend. Good.

If I could rate it higher then a 5/5 I would! The chefs need a raise cuz holy smokes the food is TO DIE FOR. We always get the chicken platter (third time now visiting) and I swear it's better and better every time! The smash potatoes and sauce that come with it are sooooo yummy! We also love the Mezze Platter for a group appetizer. We also tried the Turkish Mac and cheese this time and it was so delicious! read more

Kendra is a very good manager- and makes us want to try Baba again. The chicken skewers and pita, along with the deviled eggs- are amazing!

The food was very delicious and the portions are generous. Service was good and the ambiance is great for a date night, girls night, or family night. We come back every season to try the new dishes. read more

I came here during their happy hour (3pm-5pm daily) which includes $8 cocktails (normally $11), $4 draft beers, and $6 wine glasses. There's 90 minute street parking until 6pm all throughout the area although I don't know how strict they are in enforcing it. My first drink was the za'atar old fashioned which was mainly orange-y and spicy from the bitters. The extra orange notes came from the bruleed orange and overall was smooth. I was told by the bartender that they use all spice dram and blood orange liqueur. My second drink was the tamarind sour and the tamarind really comes through in the drink to make it tart. My third drink was the brunchkin which has an interesting combination of ingredients and was fruity and sweeter than the first two drinks. If you've ever had a calpico, this tastes like an adult version of it. I also ordered the feta garlic bread ($5) which was not what I expected in terms of garlic bread. Instead of the typical minced garlic spread on top it's chunks of softened garlic with mac sauce. The bread isn't crispy because of the sauce; it's closer to bread with mac sauce with hints of garlic and was just okay. Overall the drinks were good and they have a lot of good options for their happy hour. read more

Easily my favorite dessert (baklava) I've ever had at a restaurant. We split the Mezza platter, Kofta Kebab, and Shakshuka. No notes. Great service too. read more

So good! A fun night of celebrating and trying new things. A new favorite! Definitely do dessert.

We had 3 items on the happy hour menu. Chicken kebabs with seasoned potatoes, deviled eggs and baba ghanoush, everything was delicious. Beautifully presented with garnishments. Can't wait to go again next time I'm in Spokane. read more

This place was amazing!! Location is gorgeous, and the design was beautiful. Really sticking to the idea of the restaurant and it was beautiful. Service was quick and easy, we were seated immediately and the host was our waiter and bartender as well - for a one man show he was so composed and really made us feel seen. Food was so amazing! Flavor was exceptional and was packed with spices. So many dishes I had never heard of! Such a unique brunch and lunch menu and executed so well. Our food came quick and was absolutely delicious.

Visited Baba I mid afternoon with very few people in the place. We ordered 3 apps and 3 mains. Everything was delicious. Perfectly cooked, perfectly spiced. Highly recommend the eggs benedict with smoked salmon potato cakes. Service was spot on, friendly, attentive and polite. read more

Baba is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Spokane. Both the brunch and dinner, the cocktails, etc; everything is top notch and feels like a class outside its price range. We've been going since they were new. It feels like the visitor rate hasn't recovered since the pandemic. I don't understand how this place isn't packed to the brim. Get in while you can while they don't have lines! The Octopus (seasonal) is my absolute favorite thing, but they also have the best pita bread I've ever had, and the ouzo coffee cocktail is to die for. The Baba Ghanoush and Whipped Feta are excellent, and Baba Bowl, and grilled cheese... read more

Lovely ambiance and good food! I've been here a few times and the staff was always super kind, especially to my little 2 year old.

Door dashed. EVERYTHING was absolutely delicious. I am excited to try it at the actual restaurant

Spokane surprised me with the best food scene! While visiting Spokane I am glad we tried this restaurant. Absolute lovely ambiance and great food. Tried their Shakshuka and I must admit being a shakshuka lover this is the best one at Baba I have ever had! Shakshuka was so flavorful and well done. Their mushroom hummus was mindblowing. The mushroom souvlaki was the best dish I ever had. So healthy and yet so flavorful and filling. The quantity served here are quite large. Absolutely loved and enjoyed the food and would definitely recommend this place. read more

Superb food and cocktails. We went here prior to a concert and it was perfect, with timely service and friendly, professional staff.

Although I really miss the Wandering Table (and the awesome curried cauliflower they used to serve!) I love this new addition to Kendall Yards and Adam Hegsted's family of restaurants. Mediterranean food is sorely lacking in Spokane, so I love that there is a restaurant to help fill this void in E WA. Their Baba Ghanoush is fantastic, but I really wanted to try the whipped feta with honey, so the server suggested the Mezze plate with comes with both of those plus hummus, tzatziki, and house-made fresh pickles. And of course the house-made fresh pita which is so delish! Next we ordered the kofta kebabs, the Turkish Mac n' Cheese and the baklava for dessert. The kabobs were so good, especially with the pomegranate molasses, feta and fresh herbs that come with the grilled meat and couscous. The Mac and cheese is pure comfort food, and rich. The baklava was good, but was mostly just layers of phyllo with little filling. I prefer my baklava to have more nuts. On past visits I've had the chicken skewers and falafel, both also very good! On my next visit I want to try the roasted carrot couscous, the table next to us ordered it and it looked great. Overall love this new addition to Kendall Yards, especially the patio seating on a warm summers evening. Also, great service and atmosphere. Highly recommend! read more

I would give this restaurant a 3.75/5 stars. Our server was super helpful and kind, the ambiance was fun (though it was quite hot inside), and there were some dishes our group liked and some we didn't like quite as much. We enjoyed the mezze platter which had yummy dips and some pita bread . I loved the roasted cauliflower which was seasoned well with things like tahini and had added peppers on top. My husband liked the lamb platter and rice, though I thought some parts of the lamb were a bit fatty. Also, the falafel was a fun experience--I'd never had that before. The only thing I really wouldn't recommend is the eggplant fries. They were very greasy--but maybe eggplant just isn't my thing. My definite order again would be the cauliflower. Also, everything was presented beautifully and is best shared family style. read more

Lovely new Mediterranean restaurant with innovative offerings. The smashed potato discs were delicious! Remember how good French fries used to taste when frying them in beef tallow? Now you can enjoy that flavor again. read more
