We had the best FIRST experience of trying Indian cuisine. Very thankful it was at your restaurant. The food had the best flavor and made us want more. The servers were friendly, professional and timely. Couldn’t have picked a better place to come. We all shared the Garic Nan and that alone is worth coming back for.

My husband and I just moved to the neighborhood and were looking for the perfect local Indian spot…Baba did not disappoint! We ordered four entrees (saag paneer, lamb vindaloo, chicken tikka masala, and lamb korma) in order to sample everything and each dish was phenomenal. The staff was friendly and professional. The food came out quickly and they did not rush us even though we still had beer to drink after closing time. I’ve eaten at several Indian restaurants in Cincinnati and this is by far my favorite. We will absolutely be back!

This is my favorite Indian in the city! The staff is so friendly and the food never takes a long time to come out. We have come here several times, but this time we got the Lamb Rogan Josh. Delish! And our go to is the vegetarian appetizer sampler. Other standouts are their naan and gajar halwa (a warm carrot dessert that the staff recommended).

Baba India is one of the best choices for Indian food in Cincinnati. We usually get food to-go but chose to dine in and we’re happy with what we ordered!

Service was pretty slow, but the staff was nice. While enjoying dinner, 4 staff members came up to ask if everything was okay at least twice, bordering on weirdly after the 7th time.

Hands down my favorite Indian food in the city! I’ve been going to baba for 5 years and have never been dissatisfied with my order, not even 1 time! The staff has always been friendly and the food will never disappoint, 100/10 definitely recommend!

Had a fantastic meal. The fast food environment was hard to get over but the food and staff were great!!! I had the chicken tikka masala with paneer Nan bread. Curry level of 4 out of 6 was just the right amount of heat for me.

Wonderful Indian food. They don’t have a buffet anymore, but they do offer a lunch special that gives lots of food. I had enough left over to eat for dinner. The flavors are good and the place is clean. They also have a small parking lot. I would definitely go back here again!

Quickly one of my favorite spots, I’m sure I’ll be here regularly. The service and atmosphere are great, plenty of booths with windows. The food is really good too, I think their naan may be my favorite in Cincy, it’s just such a perfect texture for tearing and dipping, and it tastes delicious. Service is pretty fast, of course depending on how busy they are. The amount of food is pretty generous, if you’re very hungry you could maybe eat it all in one sitting, but most people will probably have leftovers. My only minor complaint is the dishes are filled to the brim, which is great because I love the food, but it also can get messy if it spills over a bit.

Food was fine service was really slow. Baba opened years ago in Oakley and it shows the roof was leaking into the dining room the bathroom was out of service and dirty. Baba has always been $1 or $2 more per entree than other places but it’s not worth it.
