Middle eastern food is best served simple. Ali Baba delivers. Everything was fresh and delicious. The hummus was authentic, which is not an easy thing to do and maintain outside of the Middle East. If I lived in Boulder I’d be having lunch here every week. Nice to have authentic Arab coffee which takes more effort to make but is worth every bit.

Absolutely love Ali Baba Grill! The food is consistently delicious and incredibly authentic—from the flavorful kabobs and creamy hummus to their perfectly crisp falafel, everything is made fresh and full of vibrant flavors. Years ago, we had our rehearsal dinner here and the owners went above and beyond to accommodate us. Their warmth and hospitality made the night unforgettable. Every time we’re in Boulder, it’s a must-visit for us. And whatever you do, don’t leave without trying their chai tea—it’s the perfect finishing touch to an amazing meal! Highly recommend.

Classic example of a restaurant with an owner who cuts corners and buys frozen everything. Many of the other negative reviews have responses from the owner that are oddly aggressive and very unprofessional. I almost hope the owner responds to this review so that I can personally ask him for a refund. Cheese Pizza was overcooked and had no feta cheese whatsoever, and the mozzarella was absolutely the pre shredded crap. My gyro had big chunks of tomato, that had not been de-stemmed, or cut with any regularity... I doubt they were washed, with the type of sloppy food prep going on. The gyro meat was also sloppily cut, and some pieces were almost an inch thick, ruining the texture. Very disappointing experience, and I would recommend folks go to Kalita Grill Greek Cafe, instead.

Skeptical at first. Which is easy to feel coming into a restaurant you've never been to, in a town you've never been to. This was quickly dismissed with the amazing hand painted artwork around the restaurant. We came around 3 after missing lunch and needed food while charging the car. This exceeded our expectations. The food was wonderful. And I highly appreciate the servers willingness to answer questions we had about the artwork around the room. My only qualm was the price of the chicken nuggets which looked really cheap but the rest of the food was so good I can overlook it.

Very delicious food! Very authentic flavor. Atmosphere pretty decent. Patio wish had some sort of cover for those sunny days. Overall, it's worth it to try!! Very tasty food and affordable prices.
