Highly recommend

I like the different types of Colombian dishes which aren't that popular in the area. It is slightly inconsistent. The first time I ordered, it was perfect. The second time I ordered, the food didn't taste fresh, the plantains were old and the sausage was tough. Keep in mind I have only ordered delivery. Good restaurant, though.

I am infatuated with the Salvadoran culinary delight known as the papusa. Pillowy pockets of meat and cheese hidden in what can best be described as a pancake like package, this is a food that someone should be passionate about. I ordered two papusas, an asada taco and a chorizo taco (total was $9.50). The food arrived rather quickly and I waited in a storefront that they converted into a dining room of sorts. Oh, I think it bears mentioning that the food truck is in a converted Winnebago (it just adds to the "cool" factor). I have had better papusas, but these were solid. They should be proud of their papusas. I am just a papusa snob. The tacos, particularly the chorizo one, were very good. All in all a very good dining experience.

The lamb sliders remain my go-to. They're consistently juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. Paired with the crispy fries, it's a meal that never disappoints. This visit, I ordered a Sidecar, but the bartender didn't have every ingredient needed for the traditional recipe. Instead of saying no, they created their own twist--and it was absolutely delicious. Sometimes improvisation pays off, and this cocktail was proof. The salmon was also excellent. I ordered it prepared the original way instead of the new menu version that includes Brussels sprouts, and it was exactly what I was craving. One of the highlights of the visit was an unexpected surprise from our waiter, who brought us a sample of their avocado ice cream. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was creamy, smooth, and surprisingly delicious. It was a thoughtful gesture that added to an already great dining experience. The only disappointment? They no longer offer the flight sampler. I was genuinely sad to see it gone because it was one of my favorite ways to experience several menu items in one visit. Overall, Babalu continues to deliver excellent food, attentive service, and outstanding drinks. Even with the flight no longer available, it's still one of my top recommendations in Memphis. 5/5 Stars - Consistent quality, excellent hospitality, and a place I'll gladly keep returning to.

The vibe is just as cool and energetic as I remembered, and having that parking garage right in the back makes hitting this part of town completely painless. I sat down with one thing on my mind: their tuna club. It used to be my absolute go-to. I opened up the menu, flipped through it twice, and my heart sank when I realized it was completely gone--looks like they updated the menu and cut it loose. When our server came by, I must have looked visibly defeated because he asked what was wrong. I told him I'd been craving that tuna club for years. He told me to hang tight, walked back to the kitchen, and somehow convinced the chef to whip one up for me anyway since they had the ingredients on hand. Talk about elite, next-level customer service. While they were working on that, we started with the table-side guacamole. It's still spectacular--super fresh, completely customizable, and served with those thick, hearty chips that actually don't break when you scoop. When the tuna club came out, it was exactly how I remembered it. Perfect sear, bursting with flavor, and paired with those roasted potatoes. My buddy got the burger and said it was cooked perfectly, though the cheese on his potatoes made them a little on the salty side. Huge shoutout to the kitchen staff and our killer server for going above and beyond for a returning guest. Babalu still has it. I won't wait years to come back next time.

After serving us our food she asked 10 minutes later if she could get us anything else and we told her we were missing the rest & she said "my mom isn't cooking no more food." Yes the restaurant was "closed" at this time but we had ordered this meal with the rest of our food. We just arrived to Memphis and as we found out they had baleadas express, we drove to eat here... biggest regret. the cashier was a bit older than our server and very unprofessional. This is clearly a family owned restaurant with terrible qualities. do not recommend what's so ever. the 12 year old is not put up to be a server. nothing was done by any of the staff to make our visit better.

I had the beef enchiladas, which were delicious. Service was friendly, though food took a while due to the crowd, which was expected. This is a great spot for after-work meetups or a fun girls' night out. I wouldn't recommend it for a romantic date unless you enjoy a lively, loud atmosphere--which I do. For a Tuesday night in Memphis, this is definitely the place to be!
