                                                    Hi everyone! My friends and I celebrated my birthday on Friday at Baba Chelsea. I should say it was such an incredible experince for all us. First of all as Turkish people we know the meaning of good Turkish foods that have certain quaility. Baba provide the best ingredients. We had acili ezme, hummus, içli köfte, hünkar beğendi and meatballs. All of them were brillant. Also, they have vine selection that what we had; however, you can find traditional Turkish rakı there! I am already obssessed by the Baba Chelsea.

                                                    I had the pleasure of visiting Baba again, and it continues to impress! The food is exceptional — bursting with authentic flavors and expertly prepared. We particularly loved the lamb chops, içli köfte, sarma, and hünkar beğendi. The staff goes above and beyond, embodying the best of Turkish hospitality with warmth, kindness, and elegance. It’s a dining experience that leaves a lasting impression. My friends were just as delighted as I was. If you're looking for a restaurant that combines outstanding food, impeccable service, and genuine hospitality, I strongly recommend Baba!

                                                    Such a warm welcome, our waitress Ms Bahar made us feel at home. Mouth watering dishes, wine leaves, hunkar begendi, fava, grilled ocfopus, lamb chops. Last but not least the irmik helva with ice cream such a 5 star. The chef was excellent. You can find local Turkish Raki as well as wines and other coctails. You should give a try ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

                                                    Finally a very good Turkish restaurant in Chelsea. Icli Kofte and lamb chops are especially very good.

                                                    Our first time to this elegant new restaurant on the Fulham Rd, where we had really delicious Mediterranean food at surprisingly reasonable prices. The service was very friendly and it has a calm, relaxed atmosphere.

                                                    I had a very enjoyable experience at Baba Restaurant and would happily return in the future. From the moment we arrived at 5 PM, the service stood out as truly exceptional. The staff were attentive and friendly ensuring we felt welcomed . The food was fresh and we enjoyed our starters and the sea bass was excellent. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for good food, service and a good night out.

                                                    This is hands down the best Turkish restaurant in London! Their mezes are absolutely incredible. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic Turkish dining experience.

                                                    It was one of the most authentic Turkish dinners we had in London. We really enjoyed the evening and thanks for the stuff and the owners for their hospitality. We will definitely come back again.
