Al-baba Resaurant - Leeds

Rice is not cooked properly and lamb was chewy not good option for night dinner time not suitable for any vegetarians …..

Maybe i 'm a little fussy but when you walk in you are confronted with the smell of your grandparents furniture to start off and i should have taken this as a sign. the price was too expensive for what i got as i didn 't even get a drink with my so called 'meal ' i pulled the member of staff up on this issue and it turned into a back and forth, i had the mixed special wrap which contained lamb donner and shwarma. the shwarma was alright but the donner was cut too thick and i bit into a few bits of gristle the size of a lego cube. i would say that the garlic/parsley sauce that was in the wrap was very nice but the member of staffs attitude, price and donner gristle let the place down.

We wanted a light, picky meal, and this was the perfect place for a selection of small plates, and surely offered something to appeal to every type of preference and appetite. The chef was pleasant and obliging, and we felt welcome. Enjoyed every freshly made mouthful, and the prices were a pleasant surprise too. Unpretentious cafe, and all the better for that!

Popped in here on recent Leeds trip Place was empty when we got there and the guy behind the counter eventually got off his mobile phone to serve us Had the kibbeh for starter and girlfriend had halloumi which was deep fried We both had chicken sharwarma wraps for main which were just ok Was just a very average experience that did nothing for Lebanese cuisine whatsoever, the only thing it left us with was raging thirsts Not a great visit but was a one off anyway

We popped in for an early dinner on the Christmas Bank Holiday. Mezze platter, mixed grill, drinks and baklava all for £22. Outstanding accompaniments and dips. Grilled chicken was moist and well seasoned. The pickles were not overbearing, which usually cannot be said. The best falafel I've had in Leeds. Can get cold inside but this didn't bother us. Well placed opposite the Dog House where you can get a pre-dinner drink.
