Babba specialty pizza
Sally L.

We have never tried Macedonian food. This place does not disappoint. It is a small restaurant and the staff is nice. We got the Babba specialty pizza and the sharska burger with mashed potatoes. You can pick different side like fries, mashed potatoes, potatoes wedges, and etc. The specialty pizza have diced fresh pork, smoked pork, bacon, and eggs. The pork was perfectly seasoned. The crust was crispy and good. It was different from American pizza. It have no cheese or sauce on it but it was so good. My boyfriend got the sharska burger which was also delicious. The burger was stuffed with provolone cheese. I would definitely come back again to try their other dishes or get their pizza again.

Cucumber Sauce

Impressive! Mediterranean food with familiar enough flavors to please and American palate. I tried the triple b babba burger it was really tasty. The bread was particularly good. Soft slightly doughy. The homemade mayo was just right. And the burger itself exceeded expectations. Slightly different taste from a regular burger, but not so different I wouldn't call it a burger. I give it 4/5. The fries were crisp and hot 5/5. Loved them. The Cucumber sauce was tasty. I sampled the beef soup, taste like Campbell's beef vegetable soup. Not bad, Campbell's is a billion dollar company so they're doing something right. I'm definitely going back. I want to try the pizza as well as other burger dishes. Just went back again today 5/19 The pork pizza is phenomenal. One of the best things I ever ate.

Interior

I was intrigued to find out about this Macedonian restaurant. I have no idea about this culture so I did not know what to expect. The pictures and descriptions sounded good so that's good enough for me! The inside is cute and small and decorated nicely. I had the sharska burger and my husband got the kebapi. The burger was stuffed with tons of melty provolone cheese. I thought the burger was tasty and I appreciated the vegetable components to make it fresher and a little lighter. The fries were thin and crispy. Everything seemed to be made to order as we had to wait a bit. The kebapi entree was huge, definitely enough for 2 meals. The meat was flavorful and tender. It's served with fries, cabbage, onions and tomato and a nice thick slice of homemade bread. I look forward to trying more things on the menu!

One of the best pizzas I've had

Talk about a hidden gem, check out Babba Grill! Babba Grill is a Macedonian street food restaurant. I actually had to look up to see where Macedonia was. While this is the first Macedonian restaurant that we have ever been to, it certainly won't be the last. We picked up their pork pizza. Now I have had pizza from all over and every style. Deep dish, thin crust, Detroit, New York, tavern, etc. I've had it all. This pizza was like something I have never had before, and I can't wait to have again. The crust, while crispy, is also flaky like a biscuit. Then covered with fresh chunks of flavorful pork. It almost ate like a sandwich. No pizza sauce on this, just pork fat. No doubt one of the tastiest and most unique pizza's that I have ever had. We also ordered their Kebapi which are grilled beef sausages. This was presented beautifully over some onions, fries, fresh bread and tomatoes. This food was so fresh and so good. Their menu is full of other items we'd love to try. Babba Grill looks to be family owned. Such a unique and fun experience and some excellent food. Next time we are in town, we're definitely visiting Babba Grill again!.

Everything was so fresh! Love the tomato cucumber salad! It was so refreshing. Furnarinki hit the spot! Well balance of cheese and crust! Hubby got a plate full of sausage, fries and shredded cabbage. The well seasoned cabbage salad balanced out really well with the rest of the plate. Will definitely be back next time I am in the area

Šarska burger
Dean J.

This place brought me home to Macedonia! My family and I were in Chicago recently and Babba Grill was on the list to check out. Just driving up to the place, the parking lot smelled amazing like a čevapi stand in Macedonia. Inside Macedonia music was playing as the place was clean. Loved the Macedonian decor too. I ordered the Šarska burger with šopska salad, we got a 10pc čevapi, order of fries with ketchup and mayo (gotta get that!), kajmak which I could just eat by spoon. You will not have this good of Macedonian food anywhere else in the US. I don't know what else to say about this place but you have to have it. Staff was amazing, service was fast and if you want something custom made they'll do it if they can. After we ate, my wife and I agreed that this place would be worth a drive back from Detroit just to get some food. Great place highly recommend it.

Had any Serbian Food recently? This Serbian food was excellent and portion were bountiful and huge…read more( we took food home since potions were large.). Don't refuse the big portions of pita bread, when offered; the pita was warm and fluffy. The Serbian salad of tomatoes, onions, green peppers, and mild cheese , all ingredients marinated in a mild, clear sauce , was a meal that can be shared by two ( or more). My spouse had the marinated mushrooms with chicken , which was very flavorful; the accompanying fries were a joy to eat. I had the signature 'stew' , which went by a local name, with subliminal spices; also very good in quantity and quality. When the food is accompanied by a thoughtful waitress , the experience is really enjoyable: she made recommendations and ensured ou experience was engaging. Not much to see here in terms of decor, but if adventurous food and welcoming people is higher on your list, then please visit.

For starters, this was my first experience with Serbian cuisine. It won't be my last…read more How this even hit my radar - I was hanging out at a Brewery in another part of town and struck up a conversation with a couple who recommended it. Strongly. Said it's what they grew up with and they've not had better. The friend I was traveling with was on board so it's how we both ended up having Serbian in Chicago. Lots of parking. Small private lot. Street parking galore. It was a sleepy evening. There was only one party (of four) when we went in. I have to admit, I was skeptical. But the aroma wafting from the kitchen ... My friend and I shared everything. Generous portions. I stuffed myself beyond what I should have. But I couldn't get enough of the grilled meats and roasted vegetables. I could have eaten nothing but the lepinja and kajmak but putting them altogether was so tasty that I just kept eating and eating. The one woman show - she was awesome. Not much English but wasn't needed. She was so pleasant and welcoming and the barrier wasn't an issue - at least for me. As she was a one person team FOH, there were times I wondered if she was also in the back cooking as she would be gone here and there but would show up right when she was needed. I don't know of many Serbian restaurants here in SoCal but when I do (and remember that is), I'll definitely go and see if it compares. I just know it was an excellent meal on my last evening in Chicago for my summer road trip.
