Thank you to Pedja and Valentine for an amazing experience last night! Our group's original plans didn't work out so we went here instead and had a great time. The service, food and atmosphere were wonderful. We did the full dinner experience and every we ate was delicious. My cocktails were unique and very good. Next time I'm in town I would definitely come back and I would recommend to anyone.
BABA is currently serving as overflow seating for Ambar. The BABA-specific door is closed, but you can enter through the main Ambar door and ask to sit at the bar downstairs. We arrived at 5:40ish on a Friday and were immediately seated at the bar. The bartender had great mixology flair and made perfect drinks (Pomegranate Kiss, Ambar Espresso Martini, and good wine selection). You can order the Mezze spreads and breads for $33 and/or go a la carte. Everything was superb, and live music started around 7:30. Amazing ambience and service—we can’t wait to come back!
The place used to be the neighborhood cocktail bar when they first opened but the quality of the drinks and food both seems to have gone downhill. With the amount of competition bars face these days I hope they’ll be able to stay in business.
I’ve only been here once and it’s already my favorite restaurant. It’s perfect for date nights or for groups of friends or for everything. I was here with a group of friends and they brought us this really nice ginger drink that was on the house and later in the night they also got us champagne that was also on the house. Hands down the BEST restaurant ever. And the servers are really polite and just genuinely nice. Oh, there’s a DJ at 10 pm. So this place is literally everything. The food is fricken phenomenal.
BABA was such a great place to have brunch. Love the decoration of the place and how the table were set up, not like a regular restaurant. The food was great, very tasty, and the drinks were on point 25cent drinks! The music was awesome and the DJ was great at taking requests and playing all types of genres, he didn't shy away from any which is great. The place can be a little difficult to find if you are looking for it from your car, and it is located in a basement I will be returning. I highly recommend this place. I had such a great time!
