Baba's in Cardiff

Will never spend money here again. I don’t know if there is new people working here. The rudest disgusting staff didn’t even apologise for my meal not being complete. Told me it wasn’t there problem and speak to Uber. Was a regular customer here. Never again after being being treated that way by a so called manager.

Nice food . Higher than average prices for Indian food

The perfect place to go in Cardiff for a South Asian street food style meal. The portions are very generous. Great value for money. Full of flavour and has great vegetarian options.

I’ve had food from here a number of times now but haven’t for maybe over a year now. Standard and quality have definitely dropped. It’s quantity over quality. Chicken was well overcooked and very dry. Their black bhuna which is usually tender and flavourful was very chewy and not as spicy as it used to be. Even the naan was a bit stiff. Only thing that was still good as usual were there chicken wontons.

Order was delivered slightly after the time it was meant to get here but wrap still arrived warm. Chips however were underdone, were meant to be masala chips but despite looking red, didn't taste of much. Being undercooked, I stopped after having 3 or 4 hoping it would get better but it didn't. The jumbo wrap is certainly jumbo, could barely finish half of and have to keep it for seconds or even thirds!

Kala Bhuna - bland, meat too tuff. King Prawn Sag - too watery, should have drained spinach. Birani - chicken lacked salt. Peshwari Nan - very little filling, I thought I was eating a plain Nan.

I would not recommend this restaurant based on my recent experience. I ordered the shish kebab, which was unfortunately undercooked, and found the bread to be of very poor quality as well. Additionally, I felt the prices were extremely high for the quality of food served. Overall, it was a disappointing dining experience.

Tried chicken tikka biryani. It was cooked with bengali style. It was served with gravy as complimentary.

Stunning meal again. Ordered jumbo wrap and chicken tikka wrap via uber eats. Food arrived on time piping hot and delicious. Can't find fault. They never let us down

The Baba's jumbo wrap was incredible. Described by me and the person I visited with as some of the best food we had. Would 10/10 recommend and definitely visit again

Delicious food and great service. Baba's is a breath of fresh air in Cardiff with some interesting and scrumptious street food dishes (we had the paneer wrap and jumbo wrap), but there's also the ol' traditional curries such as masala. Loved the black bhuna and masala fries too! Highly recommend.

Food here is always delicious. Best paratha I've ever had.

Friendly staff. Lovely food. Very tasty

Delicious meal, always a winner, never let me down on my meals so far. Whenever I'm staying in Wales I have to try baba's, their instragram pictures sold them to me and so glad I tried it. Would definitely RECOMMEND. TRY, TRY, TRY, you will not be disappointed. Best LAMB biryani I have ever tasted.

Best south Asian food in Cardiff by a long distance. Love their new and unheard of dishes but also good to see that they do the traditional British curry dishes. The chips are yummy too!

The jumbo wrap was bangin so nice and tender must try will defo order again 😋

I had baba’s last night and it was the best meal i have ever had in a long time. The chicken tikka wraps street food and masala were scrumptious. Can’t wait to come back again!

Ordered for the family tonight, everyone loved the taste of all food and best of all was given free poppadoms. 😋 so tasty and cannot fault the food. Staff was so nice as forgot to add chutney called them up and she sorted it out for me. Absolutely would recommend them and definitely will be my regular food place from now on.

Their Street food is really nice. It's tastes like back in my home.

AVOID AVOID AVOID As you can see below.. and in previous reviews the owner goes to attack a customer themselves.. rather than realising that he might be the issue. You state you are an indian restaurant in the UberEats app. Maybe change this if you aren't (as previously stated before)... it missleads customers. Worst I've had in years! Staff were rude, the Pashwari Naan tastes like plain naan - stay clear!

The wraps and curries (esp Baba's Black Bhuna) are amazing! Good to see some unique dishes and also that they have all the usual traditional British curries. Can't wait to come back!

AVOID AVOID AVOID The owner looks to argue back and personally attack customers anytime someone gives genuine negative feedback.. You state you're an Indian in the Uber Eats app.. Yet you don't claim to be an indian restaurant? Please amend this in the app to stop missleading customers. I've never had a curry separately served with chicken and sauce in different containers.. (4 pieces of chicken at that). Probably use your noggin. Or think about how to make it more obvious in your menu. It is shoddy and lazy to blame a customer genuinely looking for a nice meal. On top of that your staff don't care.. nor care for any feedback. I was met with an 'okay...' and a 'yeah sure.. okay.' Learn to take on criticism when it's given, it might help you as a person grow and hopefully that can be reflected in your food. But from reading replies from your previous reviews. I can see that it is pretty unlikely. Never ordering again. Laughable to state that I lost out on a 'free curry' as something i'd ever want from your establishment. Comedian owner. Avoid avoid.. even just from the owners child like behaviour

Ordered a few times now. Always nice food but spice consistency is different every time. Tonight was insanely hot, we couldn’t even finish our curries. Last time we ordered the same curries they weren’t nearly as hot as this. Very tasty initially but then my mouth feels like it’s about to explode. My partner looks like he’s had lip fillers done lol. The naans are lovely, but each time we’ve ordered garlic naan we seem to receive plain naan? I need more garlic! Chicken pakora were the best I’ve ever had though!

Food is amazing! Very fresh and full of flavour with generous portions, fantastic!

I’ve ordered here a few times now and I’ve got to say one of the best places for a delivery. Always hot when it arrives, full of flavour, big portions (chips can feed a family of 4) and priced very well. I’m sat here bloated and happy

Chicken Kebab meat was very dry & too many onions ...mixed kebab meat was dry and I'm sure there was liver in it yuk won't eat from here again £20 for 2 dry kebabs not good

Ordered a takeaway from here tonight and it was amazing! Me and my partner ordered a lamb korma, egg fried rice, dhal puri, the starter for 1 and the jumbo mixed wrap. We had massive portions and have plenty for lunch tomorrow aswell. Food was piping hot and served on time. The lamb korma was the winner for me as it was so creamy and tasty 😍 Will definitely be our new go to Indian.

Ordered it on Uber eat. The prices were fair and the boxes were filled to the brim with food. Loved their poppadoms and flavour.

The most incredible Indian food in cardiff! Well I soils say the UK. Consistent and always fantastic.

I was hoping to experience some authentic Indian food while visiting my family in the UK. I have tried many Indian restaurants in Cardiff anyway. One friend suggested this place. The lamb biryani was so basic and plane, just packed with turmerics and nothing else. The Korma was the worst I have ever had. Mixture of just white flour and some yellow coloring.this place is an insult to the Indian culture. I am glad I did not have food poising the next day. And for such a bad quality of food it is so overpriced.

This place is a little gem. I have had food previously and loved it. Today i suggested it to friends whilst looking a for a takeaway… OMG it is better than ever! Would not fault anything .

Have never had a bad delivery from them. The food is so good, the flavours are incredible. The food always arrived hot and the portions are good. Would highly recommend

I was told about your wraps & how good they were. Tried 1 last week & it lived up to what I was getting told so I thought I would try your curry tonight. And to be honest, the flavours & the meat was so tender that I think your the best around the area. Absolutely loved it and you’ll be seeing a lot more of me. 10/10

We love this Indian. We spoiled ourselves to a king prawn biryani and we disappointed because whole king prawns aren't used, they're cut in half and butterflyed. There wasn't many of them either, not worth £13.95.

Great food made fresh, friendly staff, and prompt orders.

Easily the best restaurant of its kind, in Cardiff. 10/10 every single time.

Worst customer experience, I found pieces of clingfilm in my keema naan. Another experience was their lack of safety hazards and regulations as they didn’t display a caution wet hazard sign as the floor was soaking nor did they clean it therefore resulted in my family member falling and sustained painful injuries. Never coming here again.

might be the best curry i have ever had!! will deffo be back with friends and family. thank you 😁👍👍

Food was delicious..I think in cardiff no one like them . I tried too many resturant and take away but this one best ..chicken curry ,lamb such a great taste love it

Had another amazing meal on Saturday evening with family and as usual food was stunning

Got the jumbo wrap which was amazing, the mint sauce was a perfect condiment with it. We also got the mixed starter, samosa was a bit soggy as it was mixed with other stuff. The pakoras and sheekh kebab was lovely. Overall great food and will definitely be revisiting to try the curry’s and biryani.

Absolutely amazing food! They did forget my drink but they delivered two asap

Best indian takeaway in Cardiff, would highly recommend

Amazing food. Staff were very accomodating on delivering a large order far beyond their normal delivery distance. Easily one of the best in Cardiff.

Amazing! really good customer service and amazing food. Really good quality and very good value for money with the collection deal. We made a special request and they did it for us, can't fault the service we recieved.

Absolutely disgusting attitude and behaviour from the restaurant! We have ordered from this restaurant despite items being missed out of our delivery 4 times! More recently, they had left out our onion bhajis (again!) Despite me putting a message for them to not forget our poppadoms or bhajis. The restaurant's attitude when we phoned was to basically call me a liar! They were rude and hostile! We will not use this restaurant again!!!!

Good Indian food take away. The guy made me a specific dish that I asked for. Was friendly and the price was good. Would definitely go again.

One of our ‘go-to’ takeaway options and it’s always delicious. Highly recommended.

Taste was okay overall but curry was really watery, chicken was dry and the keema naan barely had any keema. Overall disappointing.

Always super tasty and fresh best in cardiff 😋 👌

Meal is good, love it but the old gentilmen can be little more friendly when you pick up the order, Thanks

Friday night curry night 🙌 As far as takeaways go, Indian isn't too high on my go to list, but when you throw BABAs into the mix, that changes everything! ❤ Here I ordered ➡️ 🍴Chicken tikka starter 🍴Black Bhuna (comes with paratha) 🍴Chicken Balti 🍴Peshwari naan Stunning. All of it. That black bhuna especially, is legendary, and I can see why! Incredible flavours 🤤 If you're not a big fan of spice like me then these are solid options too👌

Had an excellent experience. Everything was so good and arrived so nicely packaged. Will be visiting again!

Had a chicken korma with rice and a keema naan, was very nice and extremely worth it for the good price. I don't usually order curry so was a bit of a risk for me. Will deffinately order again!

Bad experience. I ordered a chicken balti and a lamb karahi. The chicken was really dry but the lamb was just inedible. I would go as far as to say it was the driest meat I have ever eaten. Even a sharp knife struggled to cut it up. Asked for a refund. Didn't happen. I ended up walking there to show the person behind the counter how dry the the lamb was! They just asked me if I wanted to buy a new one? After I protested, they cooked a new one which was a bit better but they had a really bad attitude about it despite me being really polite! A real shame as I have used these dozens of times when they were in their old premises in Splott. Perhaps there has been a change of management, who knows? EDIT: Just spoken to them on the phone. Confirmed that they have actually had numerous orders from me in the past from my old address. Not sure why the person here is misrepresenting me. Really sad. Have a great evening.

Excellent food, would definitely recommend the Jumbo wrap!

Thank for the jumbo wrap it was very delicious .

I just want to say thank you for the food it’s so tasty.It has the right amount of spices you should really try its called murgh masala

Best curry ever! Great service, reasonable prices and good pick-up only deal.

Absolutely amazing food! Cant fault them and the portions are huge! Fantastic customer service, and always so friendly. My ultimate fave takeaway in Cardiff

Just love a Baba's. Their starters are amazing

If I could give a zero I would, but fortunately for them I can’t! I ordered chicken buna and chicken tikka karai, and different naans. The peshwari naan was burnt to a crisp with a hole in the middle (possibly from picking off the burnt bits), there was no difference between garlic naan and regular naan. Chicken karai was probably the worst karai I’ve ever tasted. The chicken buna wasn’t any better. To top it all off it gave us food poisoning today. I never leave review but because of how atrocious it was I had to. I thought it would be good just like how they show it on their sponsored ad on Instagram but it was nothing like advertised (on the advertisement the curry’s were full to the brim in the container but we got just over half). Do not recommend, waste of £20.

Lovely curry at a good price. Keep up the good work :)

Thought I'd try out a home delivery. Wow. Impressed with food and services 👌. Thanks

Loved it. Tasty. Fresh. Can't wait to have another

Finally we found you... Very impressed with the quality and flavour. Well done Baba's... We had our first online order last night, easy and prompt... Tandoori chicken wings, wow!!.. We enjoyed all the food we ordered, jumbo samosa, rogan josh, mushrooms rice, mix grilled, naan and the tamarin sauce.. Mmm very good!!.. Can't wait to try other menu...

Absolutely the best indian/street food takeaway you could ever imagine,hot food on delivery,the best service online or by phone ,i cannot praise babas enough they are just the best as is the food💯 my takeaway 4ever xx

I really enjoyed the curry I had from here and will definately go again.

Baba’s food is reliably excellent. You can tell they use fresh ingredients. Portions are a good size. Nicely cooked. Not greasy. Interesting spices. Very reasonable prices.

I regularly order from Baba's as they're always so consistent and it's really great value, especially for veggies. If you're looking for something a bit different I also recommend the Veg Kofta Ball curry which is unlike anything I've had anywhere else - it's kinda like a falafel made from paneer in a lovely rich sauce. Highly recommended! Moreover, the whole menu is super reasonably priced. A large rice is less than £3 and is more than enough for 2 people + second helpings + the potato/paneer side dishes are large enough that they can be eaten as a main. This isn't fine dining but it's flavourful, well priced takeaway grub.

love the food from babas, never disappoint on taste or flavor or quality. I'm always happy when food arrives as I know I will be satisfied and there's always left over for the next day, what is not to love about this place. Can't praise the chef enough.

Having read so many reviews regarding here thought I would try the street food range I opted for the wings. Jumbo samosas and the jumbo wrap. Firstly I'd like to add maybe a side salad with the samosas would have been a nice touch. Also the jumbo wrap was overwhelmed with onions so once you take away all the onions your not left with a lot of chicken and lamb. The wings were very tasty and a fairly good portion of 6. I will return again and maybe try the curries.

Just had a takeaway... food was stunning, prompt arrival and hot food.. thankyou

First time I had a meal from here and I really wanted to like it. Sadly I didn't. Onion bhaji were unlike any I've had before, chewy on the outside and really soft and mushy inside. Not much spinach in my chicken saag, chicken was chewy in both curries I had. Not huge portions either. May try once more just to be sure it wasn't just an off day.

Ordered takeaway from here, it took a while because it was a weekend but it arrived hot and was the best I have had in Cardiff. Thanks!

Thank you for a delicious meal. We really liked Baba’s biryani and the sauce that came with it. The street food menu is really unique, wish we had photos of the wontons, but they were so deliciously crunchy, they were gone in under minute!

Always order from Baba’s and in my opinion one of the best in Cardiff! Little bit disappointing that it states on the website that you get a free bottle of drink with orders over £25, I think we had it once.. but definitely the last twice we’ve spent £30 at least and didn’t get a drink at all.

Probably the best take away I have ever had. A few of us had the jumbo wraps and all of us were very satisfied. We will definitely be going back here very soon.

Food was hot and fresh on arrival, best curry take away my family have had in a long time, was loosing hope to find somewhere nice, thank u BABA'S 👍

Excellent Food and it arrived on time!!! One of the best places to eat in the area!

Good but I dont recommend this for people who are looking for South Indian Biriyani. It's definitely not a 5 star. This is my personal opinion but the owner may disagree as below.

Always enjoy our meals from Baba's

Food is super tasty as usual..my favourite takeaway ever. Always look forward to ording from them and never disappointed me.

Amazing food & flavour! Recently had trouble with other takeaways taking long and arriving cold, so tried Baba’s, arrived on time, hot, and extremely flavoursome!

Just first class food everytime

Great food and service had amazing atmosphere when walking in.

Some of the best indian food in cardiff! I've been ordering here since they opened and i can't fault them. Everything i've tried on the menu has been fantastic especially the biryanis. What's more is they actually deliver to you on time with piping hot food ready to eat! Continue the good work guys!

Absolutely love it! hard to beat for sure! Definitely a go-to when i visit my friends in cardiff, can't go wrong with this quality food and service. wish we had this where i live now! 5/5 can't fault it!

Not a Cardiff regular but stopped in here when visiting friends in the area - great tasting food, reasonably prices and friendly staff. Will make sure I pop in again when next in the area!

Quality control is on point and the service was spot on. Cheap and delicious food I will definitely be coming back!

went up to cardiff to visit some friends and they brought here, i just wish i had one back home... food was aammmaaazziinnnng. whenever i manage to get back i'm definitely going again

Great customer service, friendly staff and healthy standards. Would eat there again 10/10

Great food and great prices. Found my new place

Amazing food and amazing service. Highly recommend

Absolutely amazing!!!!! Went to Cardiff for a shopping weekend and stumbled across Baba's and it was so nice! Really hope we get a place like this in Plymouth where I live .. Will pop back in when I come to Cardiff and try something else next time ! 😀👍🏼

Wow wow wow. Fantastic food amazing service and will definitely be returning when I next go to Cardiff. Will be recommending to everyone Thanks babas ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best place around great food and great staff

I have the best takeaway food from babas. Always tasty and full of flavour. Always delivered on time nothing ever missing. I would recommend to anyone.

I ordered some food from BABA'S takeaway in cardiff recently as I was staying there for a cousin's wedding. When I ordered, the food arrived fresh, hot and was made exactly the way I asked. I would definitely reccomend BABA'S Black Buna and would recommend anyone travelling in the area to visit BABA'S. We need a BABA'S in London!!!!

Esta comida para llevar es la mejor que he pedido, sinceramente. Sin duda. la buna negra era evidentemente asombrosa, al principio tenía mis dudas ya que nunca había intentado algo como esto, pero era absolutamente el mejor curry. Por supuesto, mis lados habituales, papas fritas, arroz pilau fueron perfectos, pero el biryani de cordero (este es el biryani que siempre pido de cada indio) fue el más delicioso de todos mis gustos y experiencias pasadas. Baba, ¿te doy un absoluto?
