I was in Sydney for the day from the Central Coast & I was really looking forward to dining in a Turkish eatery (no way I’d call this place a restaurant). There was absolutely no love on this plate of food. The salad was fresh but the lamb was barely seasoned, chewy and hard to eat as the pieces were large and no knife was offered just plastic plates and a fork. Maybe if I could cut it up it would’ve made it edible. Couldn’t gain the staffs attention to ask for one. No yoghurt sauce to speak of - just a wedge of lemon. The guy serving looked bored and like he didn’t want to be there. He was also wiping sweat of his face with his bare hands and running his fingers through his hair while waiting for the meat to cook.

However, the worst part was the salad it was like they got some grass from their backyard mixed it up and violà. Although i went through all of that i thought maybe the chips couldn't be that bad, but when they served it to me i was so furious; as they had placed a small sized amount of chips in a big plate. To conclude if ur planning on enjoying ur food i highly doubt u will at Ali Baba. Instead go to ☆☆☆NEW...
