We were tempted for a quick bite for a late luch as we had a hearty breakfast at the hotel The food was excellent, the service was good, could be better, but to counterast that the falafel plate and meze were very good, with a large bread freashly made. Thoroughly recommend this place.

Tried something different tonight for beverage with dinner-apricot juice. We had the bread (kabush?) with dip; the owner made it fresh after we ordered. Also lamb gyros. All delicious. Good service, reasonable prices.

The lamb gyros are amazing. Also try the gyro pizza - really really good. Fresh, spicy, and delicious. Portion sizes are just right. This is our go to spot every time we go to lake george. Ali Baba never fails! Glad to see they are still producing great quality and amazing food.

Stopped by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. This small store front restaurant was very clean, had good service, a decent Mediterranean menu, and great food that was reasonably priced. The Greek salad was accompanied by a beautiful Ladash bread that was freshly made and steaming. The Curried chicken dish was well flavored and not overpowered with seasoning. We will... More

Homemade fresh delicious food. It's 25 miles from my house but I will go there every week. Service was great. Yogurt sauce with the lavash bread (which was right out of the oven) was outstanding.

We drive 48 miles on weekends to eat at Ali baba. My husband is vegetarian and they have excellent choice of vegetarian dishes. Lavash is soooo fresh. Very fresh ingredients. Love chicken curry.

Cheap, good , casual Mid East food. No decor to speak of but the food is fresh, reasonable and good. If you're in the mood for middle eastern food this is ok and you really can't go wrong.
