This was our child's birthday weekend so we let them make all the choices. Ahli Baba's has been around for years yet neither my wife nor I had ever been. We love Mediterranean food, though, so we were easily convinced.
It's a simple set up: small space (only two, long slab, high top tables), counter service. The art on the walls features Blue Meanies, Pink Floyd concert posters, a photo of Jerry Garcia, etc. I had steak kebabs and an Arnold Palmer. Both wife and child had gyros and lemonade. Mine was delicious, though drippy. I got quite a lot of the sauce on my shorts - an acceptable sacrifice for good food. Greasy food, psychedelic decor, BYOB, take out-friendly, late hours (open until 11 most nights, until 3 am Thursday-Saturday)... It's pretty clear who the target demographic is.
We'll be back. The food was not overwhelming but definitely decent for the price. I like the hours as it's right by the Flynn Theater - a good stop for a quick bite after a concert if we need it.
