Great lamb curry and the juicy meat with a good amount of spices ($22). Must try this if you like lamb/mutton. Also had baklava for dessert, delicious.

Great food, we got the labni and filled grape leaves appetizer and they both were so good. Reminded me of my childhood and my aunt's lebanese cooking. For the entry I got the lamb kabobs over rice. The lamb was cooked perfectly for me (medium) and their garlic sauce is top notch.

Very tasty and delicious food. Professional and warm welcoming staff. Very generous. The BEST atmosphere for an authentic oriental middle eastern experience in the US so far.

the service here was really bad, my food took forever to come out until i finally got attention of an employee because i think they forgot about us. the pita bread i got tasted very stale, and the samosas were flavorless and tasted like there was no seasoning.

My first time eating there. Indoor dining was warm and comfortable. The indoor seating where I was is set pretty low, like a western coffee table so if you have back problems, that is something to consider - but for me it was very comfortable. I felt right at home. The mint tea was so delicious. And the food serving was large. I had a vegetarian platter - it was the best - and very filling. When I walked in, I saw a their awards up front - and they really are the best in Delaware - if you like Middle eastern food, there is no place better than Ali Baba's.

An absolute gem. Been coming here for years and it doesn't disappoint. The eggplant salad is the best I've ever had, the Moroccan chicken is sublime, you cannot go wrong ordering anything here, the mezzes, the mains, everything. They might've recently switched to a different style of pita bread which I did not like, it was dryer than usual, but that may have been a supply issue. It's usually on point. Get the hot mint tea, it's delightful. Get one of everything. Seriously. Love this place.
