"Baboush offers a modern spin on traditional Moroccan dishes in an upscale, thematically decorated dining room. Order the baba ganoush – possibly the best in Dallas – and freshly-made pita for a taste of garlicky heaven. The meatball tagine is tender and rich, garnished with an egg on top. The chicken in the Tefaya tagine (flavored with saffron, green olive, and lemon) and the Fez tagine (spiced with cinnamon) falls off the bone." - W. Trace Miller

We had the most fabulous meal here! The most fresh & authentic Mediterranean Food! Our server Jasmin was absolutely amazing as well. She made great recommendations and brought us the most lovely hot tea with Rose & mint! It was a perfect meal with perfect service. We will be back. My recommendation is that you make a reservation. It is hopping here on a Friday or Saturday night. The vibe is on point too. Great date night spot or fun girls night out!

We ordered the lamb rack kabob and the apricot lamb couscous. The lamb rack was absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. It was served with couscous and a touch of pomegranate, adding a delightful contrast. The apricot lamb couscous featured grilled apricots, which complemented the tender, flavorful meat beautifully. Beyond the fantastic food, the service was exceptional. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. We accidentally left our credit card on the table, and she went out of her way—literally running a long distance—to return it to us. Her kindness and dedication made our experience even more memorable.

Quickly moved this place from my "want to go list" to my "favorite places list"! Atmosphere AMAZING, Service OUTSTANDING, Food UNBELIEVABLE! We have long looked for a restaurant to replace our favorite Disney Restaurant Marrakesh that closed several years ago. Baboush was it!! I wish we had come sooner!! My Tip for first timers: get the Mezza Plate so you can try all the flavors and textures.

What a great vibe. You got here a little bit early at around 5:40. It was still happy hour so we got a five dollar wine that was really good. We ordered the lamb hummus appetizer, which literally could’ve been a meal. No kidding, best hummus I’ve ever eaten. I ordered the grilled lamb chops, my wife ordered the apricot lamb couscous. Both were so amazing. No kidding if you don’t come here, you are missing out on a gem. People are very nice that work here too great service

Baboush is one of the few establishments, perhaps the only one, that has stood the test of time in the West Village area. The reason is clear when you go there. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the atmosphere whether indoors or outside is relaxed and pleasant.

I had the most amazing experience at Baboush! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The service was top-tier — attentive, friendly, and very professional. The food was absolutely delicious — every bite was full of flavor and beautifully presented. You can really tell the chefs put care into every dish. From the appetizers to Main dish everything was on point. I highly recommend Baboush to anyone looking for great food, amazing service, and a truly memorable dining experience. I can’t wait to come back

I had a spa day, and I stumbled upon this restaurant as I was walking the neighborhood. The establishment was not crowded at all, which I loved. The server greeted me, and allowed me to sit wherever I pleased. I loved that they served mocktails on their menu. They get a whole star alone just for that! As a woman, who is on her sobriety journey, small accommodations like this speaks to the mindfulness of this establishment. Everyone doesn’t drink. Now let’s get to the food. 10/10. Idk if it was because I finished fasting lol… but when I tell you I devoured the roasted lamb shawarma wrap and the fries and most of my Greek salad…. Baby… it was divine. Complements to the chef because the lamb was so savory and not salty at all, the wrap was thin and flaky and wrapped well, with only the juices leaking a little at the bottom, the wrap itself did not come undone. I also noticed they serve hookah, for $45, but I did not order. Just a note to anyone reading this. Great experience. I went on a Sunday afternoon around 12:30pm. Highly recommend.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in uptown. The food tastes like it was made at home with love. The music had me vibing and the decor is beautiful. Cocktails are strong and fresh! We are so happy to have found this place and will be back with friends.

Fantastic service with incredible food. We visited for a mother's day lunch and they were able to accommodate our large party of 8. Handing out roses for mother's day was a nice touch. Highly recommend this restaurant.

A not so hidden gem. This spot has been around 14 years, and deserves to be a lot more well known. The service was amazing. Victor was a dream and made us one of the best cocktails I've ever had. We didn't eat much but loved chicken gyro. My picture doesn't do it any justice, but just know it was . This would be a great date or girl's night spot that's so conveniently located. They have a ton of specials including a great happy hour on weekdays from 2-7pm and a ladies' night on Tuesdays. They also have hookah which adds to the vibe if you're here later in the evening.

The food: I ordered hummus to start. I've never had it with a pesto sauce on top before. It was delish! Then I got the preserved lemon chicken. Glad I had some pitas left to sop up all of that sauce. But the show stopper was the dessert. All the times I've been here I've never had room for dessert. This time I packed leftovers so I'd have room and now I'm kicking myself for all of times I've missed out! Get the baklava. I repeat. GET THE BAKLAVA! Where has this been all of my life?!?! Pic does do it justice. Sorry you can't taste it through the image LOL The service: staff is very friendly and personable and chatted me up. I'm glad because they were the reason for my discovery of this insane dessert and I'll forever be thankful

We were a party of four on a recent cold evening. Were seated promptly and our drink order was taken and delivered. Started with the platter of appetizers, which was beautifully presented and very tasty. Entrees were the chicken Kabab (fantastic flavor) and the salmon. They were delivered when we requested ( waited for us to enjoy the platter) and were wonderful. There was a very talented singer / guitarist who did traditional Lebanese and popular music. By the time we left every table was filled. That did not keep our excellent waiter from providing us with great service. This is our second time to go to Baboush. We will be back soon.

Stopped in with a friend for dinner while walking around West Village. It wasn't busy but it was 5:30 on a weeknight. Service was exceptional; so friendly and accommodating. We split the Mezza Platter. It was $25 which I thought was steep for an appetizer but I guess reasonable for West Village. I ordered the chicken kabobs for an entree. They were seasoned and grilled to perfection! I loved the charred veggies and garlic cream!! I walked away with lots of leftovers. I wish they would have had small containers to take home the extra Mezza platter dips. It's a beautiful restaurant that would be perfect for date night or meeting up with friends.

First time ordering here, recommended by family! We ordered to go. The bowl is so full of flavor and the pita bread is soft and pillowy. There are so many rich flavors. Looking forward to trying again

I think the concept of this place is great. I love any and all Mediterranean food and I love the concept of the place in general. Pros is that I do think all the ingredients are pretty fresh, I got the brisket shawarma bowl and while I think the bowl was super refreshing and healthy, it lacked flavor. Sides in my bowl were underseasoned, and the meat was a little tougher than I'd like. But service was great and I think they have potential overall. I'd come back just for atmosphere and service alone!

All there is to be said is wow! The food will blow you away, highly recommend the chicken schwarma bowl; beautiful and tasty. Excited to try the hookah on my next visit or dine inside and enjoy the lovely decor and design

We are from out of town and visited this restaurant. The food was beyond delish. We ordered the appetizer platter, and their apricot labehn was out of this world. We also got their chicken wraps and kebabs. Their dessert the Baklava bowl was the highlight of this dinner. They also have a live singer. Highly recommend this place.

SO GOOD! Food is amazing and interior is beautifully crafted. The service was amazing and Micheal came out to greet us!

Easily my favorite Mediterranean food in Dallas. We originally came on a food tour via the Virgin Hotels food tour of Dallas, but have been coming back since after loving the food. The chicken shawarma is my favorite! There's live music on the weekends, making it a fun time! There's street parking in West Village, but also a few structures behind and in front of the restaurant. It's never been an issue for us.

Amazing service. Great recommendations, and very friendly staff. Ambiance is slightly elevated and good for a date. Delicious food with beautiful presentations. The drinks were good too!

Kenya R.

We came in and were quickly seated. We studied the menu for a moment and ordered some drinks that turned out to be delicious: peach lemonade, sangria, and Lebanese Nights. We ordered some hummus, dolmas, and falafel. The dolmas came out warm which was a surprise to me because I have only had them cold or room temp. They were good and so was the hummus. I didn't care for the falafel, but I'm picky when it comes to my falafel. For mains we got chicken sharwarma bowl which is enough to feed 2 people. My husband got the lamb dish. It's smaller than it looked on the "famous " Tik Tok. The manager/ owner not sure which he is came to our table and asked how we heard about them. He thought maybe we saw the Tik Tok and that's when it clicked for me. They were very attentive. I don't if this is the usual or if they didn't want another viral Tik Tok. They offer hookah also. The one thing I don't like is that they automatically add gratuity. We only had 3 people in our party, so that was a little off putting especially for the area they are in. Do people not too around there or was there something else to that?

The food is amazing here, so much flavor! Our server Mo gave the best service and i'd like to thank the manager for seating us last minute without a reservation on a busy saturday, i highly recommend booking a reservation! The live music was so great with the ambience of this place! 10/10

Amazing food. We were in Dallas for a trip and stayed across the street and my wife demanded that we come back for lunch the day after we had dinner here. She had the chicken kebabs both times and absolutely loved them. I had the kafta for lunch and the flavor was incredibly rich, particularly when paired with the hummus. My wife wants to come back to Dallas just to eat here again.

Delish, good service, great atmosphere and an all around good time. Went with girlfriends and had a lovely time.

Beautiful location but horrible service. The woman was very rude the hookah was extremely overpriced but had it been good I wouldn't complain. The most expensive hookah I've paid for and the worst flavor. Food was mid. They can upgrade their service and talk to that woman. She had dark hair I should've got her name she was wearing a black apron very rude. The owner is nice but sadly bad experience I really wanted to love this spot.

Diana K.

Yelp
Food is consistently good and clean. I feel like I prefer the takeout experience from here - it's always fast and ready. In the restaurant, service can sometimes be slow and ambiance is a little underwhelming. Bonus points for an extra clean bathroom though, confirming their high health score!

Keshia R.

Yelp
They were very short staffed but I couldn't even tell. Randa was on top of it. Everything was delicious. The interior is beautiful. I'd love to see it at night. The food was soooo good! My husband and I shared the appetizer platter, chicken kabob plate (not pictured) and pot of tea and baklava for dessert. I absolutely loved this place and we will definitely go back. This little gem is a must try. Parking was a bit challenging. We had to park in a parking garage down the street.

Great spot. Delicious food, friendly service, good vibe, priced affordably. Hookah outside, good bar inside. Great cocktails & wine selection . Mo was great & manager came to meet us as well

Food Ambiance Service I walked in the door and I was absolutely starving. I was seated promptly by our server who made sure to get my hummus ASAP as I expressed I was hangry My food was perfect, so hot and fresh and so much flavor. I was in heaven. I ordered the chicken kebab and my boyfriend had the filet. Both were cooked to perfection. The owner or manager also checked on our table which I really appreciate.

Being a Mediterranean food fan, this restaurant had been on my list for a while, and my birthday celebration couldn't have been a better occasion to visit this place. My husband had planned this in advance by making a reservation (which I highly suggest you do). As soon as we entered the restaurant, there's beautiful lanterns, decorations which keeps you so mesmerized throughout your time in the restaurant. Once we got seated, the owner took our order who's so kind enough to explain us through every question we had. I think we all loved chatting with him *_* On the food side, there wasn't any item on our plate which we didn't like. From the platter to baklava, everything is house made. You can see the difference in the preparation here versus what you eat outside. Must try : Babboush platter (great assortments of dressings with pita), falafel, Goat cheese cigar, Chicken kebob platter, baklava, and lastly the cocktails. We left the restaurant with great memories, wonderful experience and amazing hospitality :)

Alright Foodie Friends! New city. New experiences. If you've read any of my posts before, you know how much I love Mom n Pop places. This is just such a place. It's Moroccan. The melange of flavors are amazing. We chose the Lemon Chicken and the Chicken Kabob. Both were exceptionally good. The quality of the ingredients and the care that went into the preparation process was obvious. The Falafel was crisp outside and just right inside. The Tahini was rich and flavorful. Their garlic sauce was PERFECT. I apologize for not posting pictures, but everything was so tasty, I just devoured it all. I will add them to the next post. This is a must go place.

Absolutely wonderful experience! Staff was very welcoming and the owner was present, helping the waiters and checking on customers. We got to try beef cigars, beef kofta and lamb rack, everything was delicious! Rose wine was great and cocktails as well! We couldn't get enough of Lebanese Night and Blackberry Seduction! Finished it all with baklava. The place was packed! We will be definitely coming back.

If you're looking for an amazing Moroccan and Mediterranean food delivery experience, look no further than this fantastic restaurant! My partner and I were blown away by the delicious flavors and generous portions. The lemon chicken was a definite standout - it was cooked to perfection, and the tangy lemon sauce was out of this world. And don't even get me started on the olives and potatoes that came with it - they were the perfect accompaniment to the dish. But the real surprise was the salad - my partner and I were fighting over it! The greens were fresh and crisp, and the dressing was flavorful without being overpowering. We'll definitely be ordering it again next time. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our meal from this restaurant. The food was amazing, the portions were generous, and the delivery was fast and friendly. If you're looking for a delicious Moroccan and Mediterranean food experience, this restaurant is definitely worth checking out! This won't be the last time!

Hidden gem! I wandered into this place one day during a day of shopping at West Village and I'm hooked. The tabbouleh salad is different than the usual you would expect but so delicious with pomegranate seeds and arugula. I love the chicken wings and baba ganoush. Very fresh and tasty!

Awesome indoor area to eat and drink next to the AT&T discovery district in downtown Dallas, Tx. Not sure about the address as the one I saw was off Commerce. Will update review as I try different meals.

Love this place and the vibe so much! It's always so well put together and everything is so yummy. You can never go wrong with any of their appetizers or their falafel.

We came Baboush before a show at a Theater. The restaurant was slow at 4:30 which was to be expected. We started with the Mezza platter and everything was so delicious. The falafel was crispy and so well seasoned. I split the salmon with my partner and our friend had the chicken kabobs. The salmon was incredible with perfect seasoning and a delicious tart lemon sauce. The vegetables were well grilled and still firm. The server was so friendly and helped us make our selections. We indulged in baklava which was crunchy and sweet a perfect ending!

Dined here last month with my husband right at 5 pm. We were the only people on the inside and there was a couple with a baby outside. They had a great variety on the menu and the food itself had lots of flavor and was cooked well and tasted delicious. We ordered the baba ganoush, wings and beef cigars. All great and the Turkish coffee was nice too.

First time in my life I was obliged to pay 20% tip without me having a choice wether they deserve it or not? Sad because I've been all over the world and never I found myself in this situation....

Dave G.

Yelp
Really enjoyed our first time here! The owner or manager who welcomed us in was really kind. We made reservations on a Friday which I would definitely recommend bc it fills up fast! I got the lamb and my wife got the chicken Shawarma. She definitely out ordered me! I would get the shawarma plate next time. We also got the mezza platter as well which was delicious but a smaller than we expected for $25. They had some live music which was nice - Not too loud, but having the musician by the door did leave us feeling a crowded when we first came in. Overall we enjoyed our meal! Everyone was kind and the food was good. They do include 20% gratuity automatically but honestly we always tip 20% in this economy to support local places and service was good, So that didn't bother us one bit. Sad we forgot to take pics because to food looked great.

Super yummy. The greek salad was fire. The kofta was amazinggggg. It was very quick and easy to get a lunch takeout order. I wish it was a little less expensive - $42 for 2 people for lunch takeout, but it was worth it. Super yummy.

Love it great food, hummus is my favorite, service is slow but the ambiance is very pleasant. Don't go for a quick lunch unless you don't mind staying. Dinner is great as they have a belly dancer Thursdays I believe.

Indoor and outdoor seating right on McKinney Ave. Moroccan wings were so good! Sweet,savory, and crispy with an apricot glaze. Tea was light and just sweet enough. Hookah available and dogs welcomed outside

Eric E.

Yelp
We saw all the good reviews and yummy pics and wanted to try while visiting Dallas. The food is excellent no question about it, but overpriced. We paid $65 for two, and ordered few items and tea. For instance, the platter doesn't have much, but cost $25. The place charges mandatory 20% tip for a service which is not great. The service was a bit dry as the waitress seemed bored. We sat outside, so can't really say much about the ambiance other than it's clean and nice inside.

Owen F.

Yelp
Fantastic food and wonderful service! The cocktails were amazing and the service was awesome. Randa was so sweet and I won't forget the food anytime soon! We had the appetizer sampler and the falafel was the best I've ever tasted with toasted sesame seeds (yummmm). The chicken kebab was killer as well. We had a service dog with us and they were very accommodating for her. Highly recommended.

Cam A.

Yelp
This is such a great place for date night or with a group of friends! The appetizers are amazing, the portions are perfect and the drinks are super refreshing. Occasionally we do the hookah, and it's so nice to just relax around it with friends. I'll be back for sure!

Food is terrible and overpriced. Waited almost 25 minutes for cold chicken and staff is rude. Consistently bad.
