    Amazing shrimp, falafel was tasty and the board was a balance of flavors! I'm still dreaming of this meal!

    Fabulous food! Servers were great and the food was delicious and very fresh. We shared plates and had more than enough.

    Spanakopita Mezze Platter
    Laura I.

    First thoughts- nice atmosphere. Seating is on the second floor. Was very surprised if there was only one waiter on a Saturday evening. He did do a great job. Restaurant was not very busy.. We ordered the Mezze platter and Spanakopita. VERY disappointed in the baba ganoush and hummus- both were flavorless and not good. Taziki was ok. There are no fresh figs on the platter (as stated on the menu), which I was looking forward to.. The top layer of the Spanakopita was cooked but the layers underneath were still doughy. If it was cooked correctly, this dish would've been very delicious. We decided to split the chef special which was a chicken breast with a tarragon, cream sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, and asparagus ($30). The dish itself was very good. However, the portion was VERY SMALL with only half of a small chicken breast pounded thin with no other accompaniments. My husband and I left there spending just under $90 and hungry. There's too many restaurants in Skippack to choose from and became of this experience we probably won't be back unless quality and quantity change. ***Note majority of the searing is up a large flight of stairs. Only a couple tables on the ground level. Would highly recommend reservations !!

    Shrimp and feta orzo
    Eve Neider N.

    It's a very cute place to sit inside and outside, but it took awhile for the food to come out and they weren't very busy. The food was good but nothing outstanding for the price they are charging. We also got the mezze appetizer which was good but again overpriced and I wish the pita was fluffier.

    Bronzino
    Katrina B.

    My fiancé and I had dinner here for the first time tonight to celebrate his birthday. He had the Bronzino and I had the Salmon and we were both very happy with our meals. The service was great and the restaurant was nice inside. Most tables are up on the second floor in what appears to be an old barn. We will definitely be back!

    Halibut!

    This is a hidden BYOB gem in Skippack. We had 2 appetizers - falafel and grilled shrimp. They had a halibut special as an entree which was amazing. We finally finished the night with a great chocolate dessert. Highly recommend going to Calypso for dinner.

    Tomato Spinach and Feta Chicken
    Jill P.

    The food was out of this world! The hummus from the trio dip appetizer was my favorite- I think I'd get the all hummus appetizer instead. The feta chicken was so creamy and flavorful, I loved it! The orzo was seasoned so well, it was probably the best orzo I've eaten. And the chicken from the skewer was delicious! I couldn't choose which chicken I loved more! The service was super quick and friendly. I loved that the restaurant was BYOB. And the restaurant had a cute vibe, quiet and peaceful, and you could see the kitchen from where you enter...which I really like in a restaurant. I love transparency! The outdoor area is also very nice! Perfect for summer weather.

    The lamb shank is my favorite dish there! The orzo side is seasoned perfectly. Nice place for a night out with friends.

    The food was ok. The hummus appetizer wasn't worth it. The beef kababs were tough and bland. The service was ok.

    I'm providing this honest review as a constructive feedback for improvement…read more We came across this place online but were only able to try it recently...I was honestly disappointed by many things: First, when a place advertises shawarma meat and posts videos of the famous Lebanese shawarma revolving cone that grills the marinated meat as the cone turns, you would expect that the shawarma plate you order is an authentic shawarma meat cut off the shawarma cone...unfortunately, this was not the case at cafe baladi. I respect the owner who's advertising authentic homemade Lebanese food but the shawarma meat we got was not an authentic shawarma meat...this was meat that was cooked either in a pan or in the oven and was not tender because it was not probably marinated and it's not grilled on the shawarma cone. Placed that have the famous shawarma cone you can usually see in the restaurant either behind the counter or through a window in the back - this was not the case. Second the plate included the choice of hummus or baba ghannouj and tabbouleh...we picked baba ghannouj and we got the tabbouleh...again, the baba ghannouj did not taste at all authentic nor homemade...it tasted like the baba ghannouj in a conserved can that you find in grocery stores. Authentic baba ghannouj is made from grilled eggplant tahini lemon juice and salt. Third, the Lebanese tabboule is made from finely chopped vegetables (parsley, tomatoes, onions, lemon juice, and burgul). Unfortunately again this tabbouleh was not finely chopped and it lacked the burgul. We were really disappointed. The only positive thing was that the service was quick.

    Unassuming and beautiful interior design. Family owned and operated. Attentive waitstaff. The food…read morewas perfect. The crispy dippers (so good its hard not to order extra rounds) and filling entrees were great. Ask about the homemade icecream options.

    This is one of my favorite spots for Mediterranean food. The food is amazing, service is wonderful,…read moreand I appreciate the homey but fast casual approach of the dining room. I discovered this place from Yelp and am so glad that I did. I really like their shawarma platters. All of the meats (chicken, beef, lamb) are good. I am usually not a fan of lamb because of the games taste but it is not noticeable here. I like the hummus as a side and it comes with a delicious piece of bread, that smells amazing if you pop it in the oven for a few minutes. They also have an option to sub the rice for veggies in the platters. I enjoy dining in because the service and ambiance are nice. It is also convenient for take out. My only gripe is that they use styrofoam takeout containers so the hot food does burn into the containers, which releases toxic chemicals. Definitely worth a stop for food! Located in a plaza with plenty of parking.

I didn't hold out hope for battered fries, but they were surprisingly good for frozen fries. I didn't give them a 5 because of the hummus appetizer. The hummus was unnaturally smooth. It tasted fine, but whipped texture was a little disconcerting. Pita bread is kept is little plastic bags that they might microwave before serving. Bread is fresh and warm when you open the bag, but it degrades quickly.
