    6. Mini Souvlaki (Comes with Fries and a drink)
    Kimberly A.

    Hidden Gem....I usually get the salads or stir fry's. Never disappointed! Small facility but great staff, some would say a hole in the wall. But I say it had character and great vibes !!! Not a sit down spot, only issue. Oh and the hours!!

    Baba got a brand new bag. And it had souvlaki in it.

    Baba black sheep, have you any Souvlaki? Well I'll take a pass on it. I'm going to be brief. They recognized me from Yelp, which makes me feel bad about writing such a bad review. But I was going off Amanda's review, she seems cool and I've agreed with her on other stuff. So I thought, maybe I gave Baba's an unfair shake. I'm obsessed with Souvlaki so I went back and ordered one. The salad wasn't fresh, some of the lettuce was already well into turning brown. There was masses of bland-tasting feta on it (I asked for the cheese on the side). The dressing wasn't too bad, honestly. The worst part though is the "amazing chicken that doesn't even need the Greek oil." It basically tasted like grilled chicken on a salad from a Tops or a Wegmans. It was completely dry and had what seemed like literally zero seasoning. I'm not saying there's any false reviewing going on, but I found basically the opposite of that review to be the case. And whereby I might have been more gentle had I found out how much I didn't like this chicken by myself, I am more cynical and critical because I feel slightly, perhaps unintentionally, misled, and because I wasted $10 based on a review which I found to not be the case.

    I just realized that out of all the times Ive come to Babas restaurant, I have never written a review. This little oversight ends today. I have read some of the reviews and I must say, I disagree with the negative ones. I understand that this place is a hole in the wall, but by no means should you hesitate to order from here. It is takeout only,this is not a sit-down restaurant. The kitchen is open so you can see your food being prepared. Food is always fresh and great tasting especially the chicken souvlaki. They literally have the best chicken souvlaki I have ever tasted. I also enjoy the chicken and rice, the seasonings is just right and you get a large amount of food. The people that work here are great, they greet everyone and actually take the time to speak to their customers. Tip: Don't knock it till you've tried it!

    Shrimp Stir Fry

    I've never eaten from this restaurant before, so when my husband suggested pickin up lunch from here I said why not , so I did think it was good as far as flavor went but it was waaaaayyyyyyy to heavy on the onions and peppers for me , it had plenty of shrimp in it over a large portion of rice .

    Chicken and Rice

    I've been going to Babas for years and I have always received great customer service and food. When you first walk in everyone speaks to you (unless they are super busy, which is understandable) but for the most part everyone acknowledges you. I've tried several things but my favorite is the chicken and rice with onions, peppers, tomatoes and feta cheese. I've also had the chicken souvlaki, the chicken stir fry and a few of the oven melts and I've never been disappointed. 9.28.2018 I ordered some thing different from Babas. In all my years I always would order the same thing. On this day I had a chicken Souvlaki Sub and it was GREAT! From the menu it is a new item and I must say they nailed it, ITS A MUST TRY. The sub comes with all of the fixings that's on a chicken Souvlaki salad but placed on a nice fresh sub roll. My friends ordered a gyro sub that I didn't taste but he said that it was really good and he should've ordered 2 full subs vs 1 full sub. I did get to taste the chicken hoagie and I must say I was completely thrown. From the looks of it it seems to be dry but that isn't the case AT ALL, it was juicy and full of great flavor. Glad I attempted to try something new and was actually satisfied.

    I went back here today but I called in my order before I arrived. It was ready by the time I came. I got a stir fry shrimp rice platter with feta cheese on the side with a pita bread.

    Ok are you hungry for good breakfast? Fast service? Oh...you are in Buffalo NY as well? We has time…read morebefore the museum opened and decided on breakfast. Lots of little places offering what Starbucks offers (premade offerings). The GPS came up with Mythos. It wasn't far from where we were. We parked on the street behind the restaurant before noticing the blue sign indicating they had a lot behind the building. No matter. Just be aware. You walk in and immediately smell breakfast cooking. We were seated at a booth and ordered a couple cups of coffee. The menu is pretty extensive. She got eggs benedict with toast and hashbrowns. I ordered the steak and eggs breakfast special. It's Thursday morning so not a people in the restaurant. The food is out pretty quick. Coffee gets refilled without having to ask. Eggs are done right, steak is cooked medium, potatoes are a little crispy. Her eggs benedict came out just right, potatoes the same as mine. Plenty of food to fuel up in the morning. We ate and talked for a while. Waitress checked in regular to see if we needed anything. Food is gone, coffee is getting finished. Definitely a breakfast (and lunch) place to check out. Fast service , reasonable prices, quality food. No complaints.

    I've been a loyal customer here and have ordered about 20 times since 2022. I generally enjoy the…read morefood, which is why this experience was very disappointing. I placed a DoorDash pickup order scheduled for after 5:00 PM because I was at work and wanted fresh food for my mom's birthday dinner. The order was prepared significantly earlier than the scheduled pickup time (around 4:30 PM), which has also happened before with scheduled orders at this restaurant. When I called to ask about the timing, I was shown a restaurant receipt listing a "promised time" of 4:11 PM. I explained that 4:11 PM was the time I placed the order, not the scheduled pickup time. I was told to take the issue up with DoorDash and was directed to use their direct ordering system instead. When I arrived, I again explained the situation and was shown the same receipt. I asked to speak with a manager, but was told no manager would come out. During this interaction, I felt dismissed and disrespected. My concerns were not taken seriously, and I was met with unprofessional behavior, including being laughed at when I tried to explain that I was simply trying to get a fresh meal after working and spending nearly $70 on dinner for a special occasion. The lack of management involvement and the way the situation was handled felt unprofessional. My issue is not just the timing error, but how the situation was handled and how I was treated as a customer. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so scheduled pickup orders and customer concerns are handled more appropriately in the future.
