Baladi Mediterranean Cafe

“The food here was absolutely amazing. This is reminiscent of food I would find in high end dining establishments in Cairo. It's food that honors it's traditional roots, while catering to diverse palates. They don't hold back on presentation, or flavour and their unique small additions to familiar dishes were a pleasant surprise. The stuffed grape leaves are an absolute must, they know their way around Arab cuisine and it shows. Service was impeccable, staff was kind and informative. My wife and I will definitely be back again. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Absolutely love their salads! Fatoush salad is my go to always, and I add a protein. The protein is always cooked to perfection and so flavorful. I love that I can purchase the dressing for home as well. Service is nice and always fast”

“The service was initially good but then the lady disappeared and left us waiting to order something to go so that I had to get someone. We really liked the food; one of the best Mediterranean places I have tried as they have lots of vegan dishes and everything is marked as such. They also have very different foods that I haven’t seen anywhere else so that is fantastic. They have a nice outside seating area but the inside is nice too.”

“The food was fun. I enjoyed the appetizers I had and the fish dish I had was cooked to perfection. I also had the house tea and it was so tasty, herbaceous and with a perfect little side of honey. The staff was entertaining. My waiter was fantastic and I got to hear all kinds of little conversations since I was the only one there for over 30 minutes. I am actually excited to go back and try different items soon. NOTE: I had dinner by myself, early. I requested a cute booth seat and was declined because they are saved for reservations, but I was in and out in less than an hour and only one two top came in, so I would suggest the staff be a little more flexible there.”

“Found this place on Google and decided to give it a try. Not the best experience, we just spent the summer in Jordan, and to be honest, I would give a street vendor in Amman 5 stars while this place 1 star. This place only authentic thing is the decor, other than that, Turkish music, the Kufta was more Indian spiced, shawarma is not shawarma, it’s just grilled chicken, the mezza platter another disappointment, the hummus is just grounded chickpeas, no tahini, lemon or oil olive were added. There were zero Arabs/ middle eastern people at the place and that should’ve be our sign that this place really doesn’t serve authentic food. I hope they improve their service and food to be more authentic and reflect the real deal of Mediterranean food.”
