Ambience
Salman Z.

THIS IS A SOLID 3.5 STAR RESTAURANT. Which means it's a good restaurant. I just can't round up to a 4, because I didn't think it was a GREAT restaurant for ME. I felt food was pricy and quantity lacking. Unfortunately, this is not a restaurant where you order family style. More of a 1 dish per person place. Which is different than how other Mediterranean restaurants tend to do it. Which is fine, just not my preference. Here's what we got: Appetizers: - meza plate: solid appetizer with plenty of things. I particularly loved the Hummus. My wife and our friends really liked the muhammara. - Roasted cauliflower: pretty good. Liked the sauce that it came with. Entrees: - Chicken Shish Kebab($25): the server recommended this dish as their top seller. I don't believe him. This chicken was dry and nothing to ring home about. It was honestly something that I felt I could have at a local Turkish restaurant for $14. Would not recommended. - Kofta Kebab($29): pretty good. We liked this. Kebab was cooked well. - Apricot lamb couscous($37): A traditional dish that we all enjoyed. Slight sweet taste to it, but not overwhelming at all. Dessert: - Baklava Bowl($18): delicious. The fruit and ice cream really complemented the baklava. Would recommend. There's street parking around the restaurant, otherwise, a 3 story parking garage in the back.

Chicken shawarma
Erica K.

I came with a large group and we were all really impressed with the live music (oldies) amazing food and ambience. The chicken kabobs were juicy and the saffron rice was the most flavorful version I've ever tried. Truth is, I wasn't even hungry when I went, I planned to box it up for the next day but it was soooo good I ate it all immediately;) so much for the diet;) we all said that we would like to come back- so that's the review of 6 people.

Mezza Plate
Rachel R.

Quaint, little Mediterranean spot & hookah lounge on the outside of west village! Their chicken kebab and shawarma are phenomenal. I also recommend the Mezza plate with all the apps and a bottle of wine to start! It's cozy and comfy in here and not typically too packed so you don't need a reservation. Great location and delicious food

Mezza Plate
Minly L.

Baboush is a charming and inviting spot tucked away in the West Village area. During the day, the atmosphere is warm and earthy, with friendly and welcoming service. As evening approaches, the vibe becomes more romantic and cozy. We had the Mezza plate, which offered a variety of flavorful bites--each one better than the last. The lamb with couscous was another standout: tender, well-seasoned, and not too gamey (just the way I like it).

Lunch specials

They have lovely decor, makes me feel like I'm traveling internationally. I usually come for the lunch special, for how fresh and tasty it is for $17 you just can't beat it. They serve hookah outside which is a nice add. Theres a nice manager that wears a suit and makes sure everything is smooth, awesome vibes and food. If you like Mediterranean it's a must try. The lamb on the lunch special is more like ground lamb not whole chunks. Wish they would add gyro meat to the lunch options.

Chef's Hummus from Baboush

Grabbed lunch here today. I cannot wait to go back for another meal. Not only was the service top notch, Mahmuod gave us A+ attention, the meal was great. The chef's Hummus was by far the best I have ever had. Crazy fresh ingredients and the portion was such a deal. We ordered the "beef cigars" and split an order of the beef shawarma dish. I highly recommend the beef shawarma. The beef was tender and perfectly medium rare. so flavorful. Drinks were never empty. Let's talk dessert. The baklava was simply amazing. We skipped the ice cream version and just went with the basic version. I will order an extra to take home the next time I visit. Thank you Baboush and Mahmuod for making this such an awesome experience. Highly recommend, will be back soon!

Mezza Plate and Couscous with roasted vegetables
Foodhaus F.

The best Mediterranean restaurant I've tried since I arrived in the USA. We tried several dishes and everything was exquisite. The Mezza plate lets you taste classic Mediterranean antipasto-style dishes, all delicious. For my main dish, I ordered a vegetarian plate based on couscous with roasted vegetables, which also had an incredible flavor. I highly recommend it.

Chicken Shish Kebob
Carissa L.

I couldn't have asked for better service from Muhammed. He was excellent. Food was also incredible. We had: Lamb hummus - perfection. I didn't realize how much I liked lamb, it was perfectly seasoned Harissa and apricot wings - I loved the flavor, they weren't spicy at all. More sweet. Chefs kiss. Chicken kabobs - great flavors, chicken was very tender The ambiance is also really great. I loved the music and decor. Felt like I was transported somewhere in the Mediterranean region!

Baboush offers authentic Mediterranean food in the heart of uptown Dallas. Parking can be limited but they have some street parking and there is a parking garage nearby as well. The food was delicious they offer a full menu from appetizers, small plates, and main entrees. Some of the highlights were the hummus, flafael, and the lamb racks. They have some outdoor seating which we opted to do but they have a beautiful dining room area for you to enjoy as well. This is a great spot to get some delicious Mediterranean restaurant. I will be back again.

Baboush has been on my want to try list for quite a while and I was glad to finally try it. Inside, the atmosphere is small and cozy with live music when we went. We started off with drinks and the chef's hummus. The hummus was fantastic and I would recommend it. For drinks, we got the blackberry seduction and lebanese nights. I felt that the blackberry seduction was pretty good but the other one tasted pretty much like juice rather than well mixed cocktail. We then got the lamb rack and kofta kebabs. Both were well made and flavorful but I felt that there was not enough food/it wasn't good enough for the price you pay. I did throughly enjoy the rice that came with the kebabs. Overall, Baboush was a fun place that I am glad I tried but I didn't feel that the value was good enough for me to want to come back.

Roasted cauliflower
Logan H.

One of the top five meals of my life. So delicious, wish I could have eaten more but glad I got to take home leftovers. Very nice staff as well. Cool music and vibes.

Mezza Plate

It's hard to get lamb right, but this lamb was great! Service was attentive and kind and the ambiance is very cute; they offer hookah that I did not get to partake in. Inside is set up beautifully and you can tell a lot of effort was put into the detail. I have been to Morocco. This felt and tasted like the restaurants back in Marrakech. The only reason I did not give it a 5/5 was because some dishes will come garnished with nuts that don't usually have nuts, which made it so that I couldn't have it. I probably should have mentioned my allergy, but putting that menu items have nuts - even if it means it will just be garnished on top, goes a long way. I was able to remove the pine nuts on the lamb which made me happy, meaning they can accommodate food allergies. The menu isn't very extensive, as they become more popular I hope they can add to it. The food is prepared very well. Can't wait to come back and try the preserved lemon chicken.

The meal was good. We got the sweet tomato, but I think it's a little too sweet. The hummus was mediocre, but the pita is so good.

We drove over to the Lovers Lane location, but it's not regularly sold at this location. Miranda at Lovers Lane provides impeccable service with a wonderful smile.

The pesto, roasted red peppers, mushrooms, fresh cheeses and grilled chicken is the perfect combination!

I remember the gourmet Eatzi's phenomenon when the chain had a Houston location, which has been closed for almost 20 years. Although I've read Eatzi's may in fact return to Houston, I'll believe it when I see it. What I've always liked about Eatzi's is the high quality and variety of cuisine on offer. For some reason, this time I settled on hummus, but also saw lots of other cool choices, including sushi. Bread is baked in-house and lots of people seem to like the made to order sandwiches and prepared foods. Service here was really good, although I was a bit put off by the long line wrapped around the inside of the store. However, I was able to walk right past it to an easy checkout. Parking here, in my opinion, was easy. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit to this Eatzi's location in Dallas, and also hope Eatzi's returns to Houston one of these days.

I rarely leave reviews , in fact, this may be my first one, but this experience was so negative…read morethat I feel compelled to share it. I ordered two sandwiches through the DoorDash app for pickup. The app clearly stated that the sandwiches came with chips and potato salad, which is why I chose that option instead of ordering a different special. When I arrived at the restaurant, I still had to wait in line before reaching the cashier. When I finally got to the counter, she handed me my sandwiches and then told me that I had ordered chips and potato salad but had not paid for them. I calmly explained that the app showed those items as included with the sandwich. Instead of resolving the situation professionally, she told me she needed to call the owner. She then had me step aside while she helped three other customers, leaving me waiting awkwardly off to the side. When the owner finally called her back, she spoke to him loudly (almost argumentatively) about me being there and "claiming" the sandwiches came with chips and potato salad. It was embarrassing because other customers could clearly hear what was happening. Ultimately, I was told the owner said the sandwiches did not come with those sides. At that point, I just took my sandwiches and left. The entire situation felt uncomfortable and unnecessary. If there was a mix-up with the app, that isn't the customer's fault. Good customer service would have been to honor what was displayed in the app and clarify the issue internally afterward. Instead, I left feeling frustrated and embarrassed. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had.
