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!

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.

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.

I came here with an Egyptian friend and was so excited to try Egyptian food - I've never seen seen…read morean Egyptian restaurant in any city before. The decor is just what you'd expect - lots of hieroglyphics and busts of gods and goddess and pharaohs and such. When you come in, you sit in the lounge area to order drinks then order food, and then they take your drinks upstairs and lead you to a proper table. That really confused me, but I've got it down for next time. It is owned by Egyptian people, and the servers can always recommend something if you don't know what to try! The portions are pretty large, so we skipped appetizers. I got the Egyptian Fatta and my friend got the Moussaka. The Fatta is described as "Pieces of roasted lamb meat and toasted Egyptian bread absorbed in lamb soup, covered with Egyptian rice & topped with a garlic tomato sauce," but I perceived it as mainly rice with chunks of tender lamb meat, and loads of caramelized onions on top (yum). The toasted bread absorbed in lamb soup bit, I didn't pick up on at all. Nor was the garlic tomato sauce a very strong flavor component. Overall the dish was mild, but tasty, and not massively different from what you get at other Middle Eastern restaurants. The caramelized onions were the best part, but the dish overall didn't leave a huge impression on me. I tried my friend's moussaka and found it overwhelmingly cheesy. I don't really like aubergine generally though I didn't mind it in this dish - the meat and potato and sauce were all very tasty, but the cheese on top was really just too much for me and I found that disappointing. Otherwise it would be a very pleasant version of moussaka. It was very heavy food! The rice served alongside was fragrant and fluffy. Afterwards we went downstairs and shared some apple-flavored shisha, £10 a pipe. I'd never done it before and enjoyed the taste, though it made me quite light-headed. But the front lounge is a very pleasant place to be, you can recline on pillows, smoke shisha and drink delicious fresh mint tea, and relax without feeling rushed after dinner. The atmosphere down there is great. I'd return again to try some other dishes, but my overall impressions were that the food was just all right, but it didn't live up to my expectations. And it was just so heavy! The menu does have some unique offerings though, so I'll give it another try and hope for better next time.
