" Ali Baba's food speaks for itself! I have visited this restaurant several times, and they’ve never disappointed me. From their meze to the grilled meats, each dish I’ve tried has left a lasting impression. Their prices reflect the quality and portion sizes, and it's great to see a place dedicated to maintaining authentic tastes. What stands out the most is the luscious garlic sauce. I can’t say enough good things about this spot. If you live in or around Chico, you must give it a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" Getting to Ali Baba was a fantastic adventure! I live out of town but decided to give it a try on a recent trip. The lamb plate with saffron rice flowed wonderfully together and enriched my palate with authentic flavor. The dining area is cozy enough to enjoy a casual dinner too. The service was especially friendly, making me feel at home. I'll surely return next time I’m in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just stopped at Ali Baba for a quick lunch, and I was pleasantly surprised! I tried the falafel wrap, and it was fresh and crispy. The seasoning was just right, and it felt like a healthy option too. The eating area is small, but it's cozy and welcoming. If you want authentic Mediterranean food that is quick and affordable, this is a great spot. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a lovely little gem in town! My husband and I stopped by on a whim and were so pleased with our meal. I had a lamb kebab plate, and the flavors were remarkably well-defined. The saffron rice was beautifully prepared, and the fresh salad added a nice crunch. The atmosphere is cozy and casual, making it an ideal space to enjoy a good meal. The staff is lovely and makes every effort to ensure a great experience. Definitely recommend visiting if you haven't already! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a lovely experience at this quaint place! The decor is simplistic, yet the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The grape leaves were the highlight of my meal—they were perfectly spiced and flavorful. The fresh veggies served alongside were a nice touch too! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who appreciates authentic Mediterranean fare. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very disappointing experience at Ali Baba. I ordered the gyro wrap, and while the portions were generous, the meat was overly salty and dryness ruined the experience for me. The customer service was decent, albeit not as warm as I expected after all the wonderful reviews. I wanted to fall in love with this place after all the hype, but it just didn't match my expectations. Given the reputation, I might consider trying different items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Ali Baba after hearing great reviews from friends. The falafel wrap was nothing short of spectacular! I’ve tried falafel at many places, but Ali Baba’s version was by far the best I’ve had. The crunch on the outside and the rich flavors inside made it a delightful experience. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, which made the meal even more enjoyable. It’s a bit small but cozy. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for authentic Mediterranean food.
