Ali Baba Cafe & Restaurant

Whenever I am in Chicago, I go to this place.  First off, they are open really really late.  They have great food and offer over the top hookah.  Very traditional and the way I like it.  They  dont have a bar but they do let you BYOB for 5 bucks.  They include gratuity on their checks.  The bathroom is super tiny.  They have a bunch of games you can play like cards or dominos.  I will go back!

Food is great, ambience is nice...Service was GREAT!!!!!!!! We had a hookah that was not working properly....The coal person realized it and said we will get you a better hookah....It was nice of them to do....LOVE THE FOOD AS WELL.....Must try the FATOOUSH SALAD AND ROLLS!!!!!!!!

Went there to eat and the place was a dump!!! We were right by the kitchen area which only had two tables and about 10+ chairs everywhere, the TV was very loud and after we sat down the owner made it even louder so he can hear what ever program he was watching, which made it pretty clear to us that we were not welcomed....the only thing i liked was their lentil soup-that's the only star for the place........
