Ali Baba House of Kabob

The best Persian restaurant in Longwood. Their dishes are amazingly good. Their skewers are so tastefully delightful to your palate. I love the basmati rice that goes with my Koubodieh. Beef and Lamb skewers are to die for. Service is exceptional and the ambiance makes me travel to Iran. Love AliBaba!

The atmosphere of the restaurant is great and the service was incredible. Unfortunately the food dis not live up to the standards of good Mediterranean food. I liked the presentation but the flavor was off and for the price the hummus was not fresh and the kebab standard. The ice cream was good but it is vanilla mixed with pistachio and saffron, so maybe they can use more variety. Overall it was a good experience but I would not come back due to the food and price.

Delicious, Healthy, Authentic Iranian food! If you want homemade style food without having to cook, this place is for you. Everything is fresh, not overly salty and just right. The kabob was tender, flavorful, juicy and abundant! The salad was fresh and crisp. The ambiance is bright, clean and beautifully decorated. And the owner was super friendly. Why I haven’t gone here sooner is beyond me. Now I plan to go with my family more often!

This is my first time ever writing a restaurant review. This place deserves SO much more than an overall of 4.3 stars. I can’t stand by and read reviews from non-Iranians talk about how the food doesn’t live up to their standards of what they think “Mediterranean food” is. As a Persian woman who just moved to Orlando, I’ve been looking to find an authentic Persian restaurant and I’m so glad to have finally found one. The food tasted 100% authentic and like it was homemade. We ordered the kashk o bademjan, joojeh kabob, kabob barg, and ghorme sabzi. The kashk bademjan was delicious and smoky and the bread was warm and fluffy. The joojeh was super soft and juicy. The barg was tender and flavorful. The Ghorme sabzi was perfect and NOT oily (most restaurants butcher Ghorme sabzi by making it too oily). The rice was buttery and delicious. Also i loved the atmosphere. It made me feel so nostalgic. It really felt like i was eating at a family members house. I loved the pictures and paintings of Iran and the oldie but goldie Iranian music playing. This place is my new Persian food plug. I will be coming back regularly!

I had a fantastic experience at Alibaba, a Persian cuisine restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious! I tried the Kubideh, Jujeh Kebab, and Barg, all of which were cooked to perfection. The rice was fragrant and included Zereshk, adding a nice balance of sweetness and tang. I also enjoyed Mast-o-Moosir and Mast-o-Khiar, both refreshing and flavorful sides that complemented the meal perfectly. To finish, I had chai, which was the perfect way to end such a great meal. The service was excellent—friendly and attentive without being intrusive. I really appreciated the experience and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!
