Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"08/03/25 20.20. I recently purchased a Chicken Doner Meal from Ali Baba, Dalston and was thoroughly impressed by both the deliciously seasoned chicken doner and the whole nest of added goodies, first up, great sized portion of chips, 2 pitta breads, hummus, hot sauce, tziki and a large lovely salad. Everything was brilliant, fresh and well wrapped and the kicker is.....it all arrived hot, ready to eat. The service was impeccable. Ali Baba provided excellent service, ensuring our satisfaction. I can’t recommend Ali Baba enough for a fantastic meal. Thank you ever so much. Will be coming back!"
"What a wonderful world!!!! Big thumbs up for ali baba kebab house, gave me a deal with the chips and that’s what I live for! Boss man knows how it’s done. 10/10 highly recommend Came back for a better photo in my wig"
"came here a couple weeks ago after spending time in dalston den w my friends, so you can imagine how loopy we were. shawarma was good but the chips!!!!!!! and the staff were so so so kind and friendly fly, even teaching me some turkish phrases definitely stop by here if you find yourself in dalston - good food behaved by the great staff"
"100% Helal, clean and savoury food happening here. Real and the best decent Turkish döner in neighbourhood. Lamb and Chicken in pita bread (sandwich). or proper wraps. QuutaPandas or haaf pandas even:) as well. Vegan falafel or/and halumi wraps (ask for tahini:) Kind and very good staff, even i eat more than 60-70% of the meat and good green stuff and Vola! still there is more taste. forget all the other döners (turner) and sish kebaps :) heavenly we trust, go for it! You're never gonna be disappointed for after. cheers for good work. thanks. sweat hot green pepper is one of the best. crispy and appetizing for chili lovers. Be a fan of this clan cus they are good happy halloween btw"
"It’s literally been 6 months since we visited and I still can’t stop thinking about how good the food was here. It’s like a lost lover that I can get never back. We visited twice and both times the food was 10/10 and the Bossman super nice. Portions were big enough for lunch and a snack after. Can’t recommend it enough!"
"I live near Brick Lane which has a plethora of kebab shops, none of which comes close to the quality of Ali’s. Ordered the mixed meat kebab & chips and, while the picture doesn’t do it justice, suffice to say that this was polished off in full by two of us (mostly me)! The chicken donner meat was beautifully cooked - moist and flavoursome without too much fat. Very pleased to find red cabbage salad which so many other places no longer do. 4 stars not 5 since the chilli sauce, while very tasty, was completely lacking in heat and our first serving of chips was only luke warm but they replaced this with a hot (but smaller) serving when asked. Service was also a bit surly. Small counter with a few (4) stools if you want to eat in. Would definitely repeat the experience but I'd bring chilli sauce/chilli flakes as the heat was really lacking."
"Best doner I had in a while. Clean, friendly staff and tasty food."
"Always good service, experience and food in this establishment. Staff are patient, friendly and the food is always good no matter the time, Usually come here after clubs and the food is still fresh, warm and inviting - recommend here"
