Lovely Middle Eastern food with friendly service and a small parking lot. It was a nice place to…read moreget a quiet, delicious lunch on a Sunday for something a little unusual. I do really wish that they had a mixed mezze platter as we usually like to share one of those and a mixed grill. But instead, we got The Bake Mixed Grill (really nice, juicy meats. Chicken especially well-cooked.) with lamb kofta, chicken cubes, and lamb shish. Doesn't come with rice, you have to order that alongside. Loved the warm bread. They forgot to bring our green beans but we filled up on the meat and the Bake Salad, with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, parsley, mint, onion, radish, and dressed with sumac, lemon juice, and olive oil. Really nice and fresh, great for making impromptu sandwiches of pita, meat, and crunchy salad. They're BYOB and they deliver, so I'm sure we'll be enjoying their food again soon.

This is my favourite place to eat in Newcastle. And it's BYOBB which is always good :D…read more The food is fantastic, great for vegetarians too. It's very busy and you may have to sit on the long tables with other parties. I usually hate that, but at Al Baik (its original name) it doesn't bother me at all. It's all part of the atmosphere. It's more casual dining than romantic meal, but great for couples, groups of friends, whatever. We usually order a million mezze style plates rather than mains. Yum yum YUM!!

Driven by this place a million times, but never stopped in until recently. We ate at an odd time -…read moremaybe 2:30 pm on a Sunday, but it was still busy with nearly every table full, and people coming in regularly for takeaway sandwiches. On the plus side, the food was delicious. You can see the shawarma cooking when you come in, and it looks like real big hunks of meat, not gyro meat, which makes all the difference. We loved the mixed shawarma with hummus, and they kept bringing more warm bread for us to eat it with. The Fattoush Special Salad was also fab - fresh lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, mint, radishes, toasted bread, drizzled with pomegranate sauce and sprinkled with sumac. So much more flavorful and zesty than usual Middle Eastern salads, it was bright and beautiful. I wasn't sold on the Sambousek Lamb - more pastry than bread, they looked like little pre-bought pasties. Admittedly the filling was tasty, but they looked and tasted like they weren't homemade, and just weren't as exciting. I did enjoy the crispy falafels though. We may have also gotten meatballs, I can't remember them - but either way I know we were stuffed, and really impressed by and large with the freshness and quality. Service left a lot to be desired - slow and confused. Sat for ages before ordering, took forever to get water, that kind of thing. They're understaffed, servers were running around like crazy, they couldn't keep up! Sort of felt for them, rather than being too angry. But don't go here if you don't want to linger. It's a great little neighborhood cafe, diverse clientele, everyone from couples to friends to families. We're already planning to come back again soon.

Busy Lebanese restaurant in Gosforth. The staff is very attentive and served us free tap water…read moreright away. Each of us ordered a starter and a main course. The starters were not to our taste, but the serving sizes of the main courses were huge anyway. Afterwards, we even got a free dessert. Some of the dishes could have used more seasoning. For the food quality you might say: Like it or don't. In any case, you get great value for money, because the dishes are really affordable and you won't leave hungry.

But my husband and I hope Alsham does a bit better, because we had a really nice lunch here over the weekend. It wasn't busy when we arrived around noon, but over the next few hours more and more people came in. Service was very friendly, and they brought us some free, freshly fried falafel for a little amuse-bouche - how lovely! They were impossibly crispy, hot and delicious. We didn't order them, but you should. We did order the hummus beirutty - chickpea puree with chili, parsley, tahini, and lemon juice. Like a hummus, but with a more concentrated flavor and a kick of spice. There wasn't much of it - not the usual big bowl - but it was enough to keep us full along with the main courses. And they brought lots of fresh, hot bread - the bread was all puffy from the oven when it hit the table. We shared a mixed grill - you can see the meat cooking on the charcoal when you walk in, sooooo tempting - with lamb cubes, chicken cubes, and kofta kebab. All very tender, juicy, and flavorful. You have to order rice, but they brought us free garlic sauce and chili sauce. We busily started making little sandwiches out of the bread, hummus, and meat - every bite was great. The okra mezze was nice too instead of a salad - served in a creamy, fragrant red sauce. So much food! Didn't seem like too much but we could barely finish it. I think it was just over £10 per person for all that and we were stuffed. We love this kind of food, and they do it well here. We'll definitely be back!

Went to Wafi as a tourist from out of country on my birthday and the bar seems to be running some…read moretype of scam the prices at the bar are very inconsistent and service horrible. I paid the bar attendant a £50 and was given back £4.20. I bought the price of the drinks to the attention of my friend whom I was visiting at the time she advised me to go back and make a compliant to the manager which I did and he said he would review the cameras and give me a call back. I never received a call therefore I returned to the bar twice and both times was turned away.The manager claimed that there were too many black people in the club that night so he wasn't able to identify me and refused to give me a refund although he mentioned to my face that he believed I wasn't lying about the transaction. All I would say is to be very cautious when going to the bar and always always ask what the prices are before you even purchase anything

They were my husband's favourite - I think next time he wants to order only them. The rice was simple but more-ish, and we also really enjoyed the hummus.

Baba's is my favourite kebab shop in Newcastle. They have an incredible selection of high-quality…read moremiddle eastern and greek food and it's always very fresh and well seasoned. The naan's are really tasty. Our favourite dishes are the Chicken Grilled and Lamb Kofta kebabs, although the barbequed lamb chops are also amazing. We've tried the pizza once and it was also yummy, although not the big draw of this place. The prices are really cheap for the quality of food you receive and the service is fast. Baba's has a delivery service through just-eat.co.uk which we've used several times as well. Definitely check this place out - worth skipping over your local kebab place in favour of this West Road gem!

We ordered chips with it which were much nicer than the usual takeaway chips you get these days and the bread was more like a nana than a pita bread which was also lovely. Android users can download an app which makes ordering so much easier and It also gives you 10% off every order too. Great taste and great value for money too.
