Very nice Turkish style kebabs. Eat in or takeout, you can't go wrong. Cash payments only I believe.

Authentic and delicious food, staff there (waitress and chef) were extremely friendly and accommodating. Place was busy which speaks volumes of the popularity of their food. Pricing was very reasonable too. Keep up the great work and I'll be back when I return to Bournemouth!

I ordered a large takeaway for collection this evening (enough for 8 adults), and everything was ready right on time. The food was absolutely fantastic—every single dish was spot on. I’d highly recommend this place and will definitely be back for more delicious food!

I love Ali Baba’s, whether to come in and eat or for takeaway! The food is SO delicious and fresh, the meat is juicy, the rice is buttery and the salad is so tasty. Their home made baklava is a winner too. The staff are always so lovely, and when you go in and eat they give you a Turkish tea to finish off your dinner, it’s is so nice and special Bear in mind the place is cash only, but there is a cash machine a short walk at the local Tesco
