Our Story
A Journey Through Culture, Taste, and Tradition
Located in the heart of Amsterdam, BWhat started as a small family business, founded by grandfather Baba, has grown into a beloved eatery where generations have enjoyed traditional flavors and warm hospitality. Baba Restaurant opened its first location in 1968 in the Halvemaansteeg, just off the lively Rembrandtplein. Thanks to our carefully prepared dishes and special spice blends, we quickly became a favorite among lovers of authentic shawarma in Amsterdam.

David went above and beyond to make our experience amazing, and it quickly became our favorite spot in the city. The vibe, the hospitality, and the genuine care they show customers make it a 10/10. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking to experience the real Amsterdam!Posted on Megan WendlingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The atmosphere is chill, the staff is welcoming, and David really knows how to make you feel at home. Really good kabab box and had a beer while we were waiting (: I’d recommend this spot especially after a long night out!
