This place is a hidden gem! The staff is always very friendly and accommodating, and the food is delicious!!! Full of flavor, and everything is fully customizable! We order takeout from them a lot and they are one of the few local places that always impress me with their consistency. The ginger chicken is the best! They have lots of seating inside if you eat there, and a small parking lot out back plus street parking (I never have an issue finding a spot). Thanks for creating an aesthetically pleasing, delicious spot!

Ali Baba's Kitchen is a cute, clean place with courteous and friendly counter service. I had the chicken kati roll and it was spicy and flavorful. The samosas with two accompanying sauces were absolutely delicious. Thumbs up on the falafel as well-- the pita has been pan seared maybe and it has a great crunch. The prices are reasonable and I will definitely return.

Wow, what a fantastic meal we had at Ali Baba’s Kitchen! We did the beef gyro and lemon chicken over rice with chickpeas, feta, lettuce, tomato, and olives, and it was delicious and filling. Their falafel was amazing too! We tried Kati rolls for the first time, and each one was delicious (chicken, lamb, and cauliflower). The babousha was a nice dessert. I would definitely come back!

I recently dined at Ali Baba, and it was an incredible experience! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The menu features a delicious variety of halal options, and everything we tried was bursting with flavor. I especially loved the chicken with lemon—perfectly cooked and seasoned. If you’re looking for authentic halal cuisine, Ali Baba is a must-visit! I can't wait to go back!
