Located on Main Street in Newark, Delaware, near the University of Delaware, Ali Baba is known for authenically prepared Lebanese and Moroccan food. The detailed decor, including beautiful Moroccan tapestries on the walls, gives patrons an authentic experience. Guests can choose sofa-style seating in the back room or traditional seating in the front of Ali Baba restaurant. It’s a fun, laid-back college atmosphere with belly dancers performances on special occasions.

5 months agoGreat great place with delectable food and drinks. Atmosphere is true to the cuisine but the seating is a little uncomfortable (am not exactly a tall guy but still had to squeeze in on the seats and my knees had to sustain multiple bangs to the low slung table. The staff is phenomenal, prompt and very warm, always helpful in deciding our order and delivering it to the table.

7 months agoWe really enjoy this place and it's food! I got a really yummy vegetable/vegetarian platter! There are plenty of things for vegans as well. The falafels are crispy and good. The carrot salad is nice and garlicky. We also tried the spinach pie over the spanakopita which has feta cheese in it. Looks like the front porch area is reserve for the hookah bar part. We sat in the cozy back!

a week agoThis was our first time here and we really enjoyed ourselves. The vibe is just right. Music, hookah and bomb food. I had the salmon and it was delicious!! Highly recommended. Fries and hummus were also great! My fiancè had chicken kabobs and he really enjoyed it. He stayed in the Middle East for some time, so I know the food is good if he thinks so! Oh..the staff is amazing!! We will definitely be back. 10/10

a month agoThe food was excellent and the staff was so welcoming! Their food reminded me of many of the dishes I would eat growing up; the ingredients were fresh and everything was so delicious. If you love good quality and authentic middle eastern cuisine, this place is absolutely worth it!
