Ali Baba

Middle Eastern restaurant · Hoboken

@eater

"Ali Baba, open since 1983, has long been a beacon of Middle Eastern fare right on Hoboken’s main drag. A palm tree mural covers one wall, an oud (similar to a lute) hangs from the ceiling, and an open kitchen allows you to watch kebabs being grilled, bread dips being mashed, and generous platters assembled. Vegetarian pita sandwiches are a particular bargain, which is an economic triumph given the comfort of the premises. Lamb and chicken entrees and pilafs also prevail." - Robert Sietsema
