amazing and swift service, beautiful environment, good food and farh was so nice to me !

Visited Baba today and tried their chicken shawarma bowl. The portion is enough to feed 2. We also ordered hammus bowl. They look and taste amazing. The food came very fast, the announcement of the order made us feel like we are in the airport. It was not impacting any rating. Self-serve fast food style ordering counter. Has indoor ansnoutdior seating read more

I wanted to like this place, and will probably try again for good measure, but my first visit wasn't great. First, there are a number of "sandwich" options. They have a wrap or a roll. I asked what the difference was and was told "they are the same thing." ??? She asked which I wanted and I just kind of said "whatever" if they're the same thing. Had the chicken wrap. It was shwarma chicken, a few pieces of chopped pickle, and garlic sauce. Very boring. I liked the saj ? wrap though. They do not have any fountain drinks and no American sodas to choose from, which is a little odd. I'll try again but there are better shwarma places around I'd rather go to. read more

We went around 6:15 on a Wednesday evening. We noted that this restaurant is open 24/7, which is great for us as we sometimes end up eating late and a lot of restaurants are already closed. The music was really loud, but I am somewhat sensitive to loud noises. The lovely person who took our order was very soft spoken and it was hard to hear over the music, she had to repeat a lot for us. The restaurant is very clean with good lighting. There is good handicapped access. You order at the counter, then find a seat and wait for them to call your number, then pick up at the other end of the counter. The automated number caller was also very loud. I had the Topped Hummus with steak and a yogurt drink. There was a ton of hummus, and even more meat. I ate dinner that night and had enough for about five more meals. It was delicious. It came with one pita, which was good, thick and tender. The hummus was creamy with good flavor, and the meat was delicious. We shared a flatbread with cheese and olives, very good. My partner had a chicken shawarma meal. It was so good! Great flavors. Service was wonderful. Someone even came to our table to make sure we were enjoying our food and to ask if we needed anything else. Total with tip was about $50. read more

WOW their food is incredibly tasty. Most of the meals include fries and a drink in the price listed on the menu, and I felt the prices were very reasonable based on the quantity and freshness. The ambiance is lovely. There's cozy decor around the dining area and soft lighting. By 7pm on a weeknight, the place was filled as was the parking lot. I visited a week ago and am already looking forward to going again. Bonus: the attached coffee shop is equally impressive. read more

Baba Saj - Mediterranean Near Me - Blaine, Minnesota

I will go back. Anyone can have an off day. The Chicken Shawarma bowl could've used more chicken, and the chicken was on the dry side. Otherwise, very generous size. The Baba Ghanoush was good, but they were out of pita, which would've been nice to know when I placed the order instead of telling me when the food was ready. The Tabooleh wasn't edible. No tomato and few scallions. I won't order that again. Nice atmosphere, clean, and friendly. read more

Tried the new Middle Eastern spot connected to Qamaria Cafe. A casual order yourself place with wraps, pita, bowls of the Chicken , Steak or ,falafel options. Sides of Hummus, Tabbouleh, Baba Ganoush, Jerusalem salad, etc. Food was casual, good and fresh. More on the tangy flavor profile, dill , vinegar, lemon was quite prominent. I loved the Tabbouleh salad the best. Good set up for busy service times. Customer service was efficient.Apple Pay accepted. Casual place to hang out for good food and then grab a pistachio latte next door! Private parking lot and patio seats available read more

This is one of those places, a hidden gem, something that is not advertised and something special, this place is awesome !! Great looking place, modern style and very inviting. Menu has so many choices and great pictures of some of the dishes so making choices is slightly easier but still.. All the food we got was amazing, everything... seriously though.... Just amazing, the sizes generous and the flavor..... This is a place is a must try!! read more

We'd heard good things, so we ordered takeout for dinner. One steak shawarma meal and a chicken shawarma meal. I had to wait about 15 minutes for our order to ready, but during that time I got to enjoy the restaurant full of diversity and conversation. This place has great ambiance for a restaurant where you order at the counter. After getting home with our meals, we were impressed with the quality and quantity. We will absolutely be back!! (And, I LOVE the pickles!) read more

Good food. Service js a little confusing. Space is nice with minimalist decorations. I had the vegetarian sampler. Liked all of it except for their baba ganoush. read more

Baba Saj - Entrance wall - Mediterranean Near Me - Blaine, Minnesota

Tried Baba Saj since my cousin and I enjoy Mediterranean food. This is the new hidden gem in the Blaine/ Spring Lake Park area. The service was great and they are open 24 hours for the drive thru. We had the steak shawarma plate and the hummus appetizer. They threw in two falafels for us to try also. The shawarma were great and very flavorful. I like that it came on a cutting board for a tray and it also has some pickled vegetables with it also. The hummus had just enough of spice and the whole chicken peas were something i liked, but my cousin was not a big fan. It is a very generous servings also. The falafel were also very good and not spicy. The seating area was very clean and not too loud. The interesting thing is they are also connected to another restaurant that I did catch the name of but if it's owned by the same people I am sure it is good. read more

I was really excited to experience this place but was really let down by the service and the quality of food. Ordering was tough- the menu wasn't very clear and they were out of their signature rolls. We had to wait over 30 minutes for our food,, and we did get our food the chicken in our shawarma was extremely dry and without any flavor or sauce. Even after getting our food the didn't provide any sauce and when we asked for it they seemed to act as if I was stealing from them. They also forgot a part of my order and I had to ask 3 times until I got it almost an hour later. These might be hiccups related to newly opening, but regardless it was a bad experience. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon. My brother ordered a pita sandwich (meal) and I had the steak rice bowl by itself. ($40 total) Food looked good but the steak was super dry. As well as they have an order pickup station that was automated and it continued to scream out the order number, it was not something that made the dine-in pleasant especially when it wasn't that busy to begin with. read more

They have about 6 different kinds of bread, and they're all homemade . The seseme bread with beef is insanely good, but so is everything else. Service is quick and kind. It's a casual place, so bring the family and enjoy yourself. If you want a taste of the Arab world, run don't walk. read more

Authentic flavors and outstanding service. This new restaurant is an excellent addition to the area. The food is authentic, beautifully prepared, and full of rich Middle Eastern flavor. Every dish tasted fresh and well-balanced from the tender shawarma to the perfectly seasoned rice and creamy hummus. The ingredients clearly speak for themselves. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff go above and beyond to make sure guests have a great experience. You can tell there's real pride behind both the food and the service. It's always exciting to see a new restaurant open that delivers this level of quality and authenticity. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends and family. read more

Former Dearborn resident here this place is legit! This is the first time I've had a Shawarma actually taste like a Shawarma in Minnesota

Food was good not super amazing but good, service was pretty neutral not super inviting. I got food to dine in but had to wait almost an hour for it to come which I would be fine with if they let me get a box to go. After waiting a while I asked if they could switch my order to "to-go" instead of dine-in an one of the dudes said he can do that for me but it came out for dine in which I thought was okay because I can just ask for a box to go, the cashier girl who took my order said that dine-in is final and if I wanted to-go I should have said so when I ordered so I couldn't even get a box or a bag to carry my food to my car. I ended up eating what ever I couldn't stuff into the platter I ordered which luckily came with a box given it was full of food so I couldn't really pack much. In the end I had to throw away a good amount of food and take home what fit in the platter. read more

Baba Saj - Chicken shawarma bowl with pita! - Mediterranean Near Me - Blaine, Minnesota

Online menu doesn't match what I was given. Ordered the steak shwarma PLATE. When got home, I had a package of dry bland shredded steak, a bowl of pickles with a couple tomatoes. No rice, hummus or baba salad as listed on online menu. I called them and they told me to come back on and they would complete the order. When I arrived I was told that due to it being a "soft opening" the only listed item they could provide was the hummus but they would add some pita bread. After waiting over 10 minutes they gave me the hummus but no bread. Saying it was my fault for ordering incorrectly based on the Chicago menu! Sorry guys, the bag you packed my food in has a QR code that takes me to that menu! This failure is entirely on you. I will not be returning. PS your falafel was embarrassingly flavorless too... read more

Great ambiance, service, and food. I especially want to give a shoutout to Nahed for welcoming us with a smile as we walked in.

I'm a bit new to the Twin Cities, and I've been trying as many new restaurants as I can. This one is one of the best experiences I've had. I ordered the steak shawarma meal, which was delicious and had generous portions. The garlic sauce was amazing, and the fries were the perfect texture. The service was incredible, so hospitable and kind. The restaurant was very lively and had tons of families, and is also attached to a very nice cafe that also had a lot of people studying. Would definitely go back! read more

First time eating there and absolutely loved it. got some shawarma and a Falafel wrap w side of humos. some of the better Middle Eastern food I've had in Twin Cities. food was great and the staff was very helpful and cheerful.
