    We ate at Babas hot chicken today and it was delicious. The chicken was seasoned perfectly. My child ate every last bite. Friendly staff. Highly recommend.

    I have been here only once after much effort! Such an inconvenience that they don't have a drive thru, there is no parking or way to ever stop. food is good but not sure if it's worth the hassle unless your walking around downtown.

    What is really good my wife and I tried the spicy chicken sandwich extreme heat let me tell you that had some kick to it but it also maintains flavor I love things that are spicy but I hate things that cannot maintain flavor with the spice and I will tell you this got a good balance of spice and flavor I probably tone it down to a four or three next time but the level 5 spicy was good

    I was excited about ordering the macaroni and cheese but when I tasted it, it is different. It has a terrible sour taste. I asked for another and it taste worse. I won't be eating here again.

    Love the riverside food lab location. Great restaurants to choose from. Perfect for foodies. My son wanted to try Babas because he loves hot chicken. He got the tenders combo in medium with macaroni. He said the tenders were juicy, crispy, and well seasoned. The Mac and cheese on the other hand was bland and very processed and chemically testing. Did not taste fresh and homemade at all. He said he would only get chicken next time 😕
