Review
Even a cowboy’s gotta stray from the coast now and then, and when I did, I ended up at Ali Baba in Chico, where the gyro plate made me feel like I’d stumbled into a Mediterranean chuckwagon dream.
That lamb and beef? Thin-sliced, perfectly seasoned, with just enough crispy on the edge to make every bite count. Laid over a bed of fluffy golden rice, it was practically begging for that cool, creamy tzatziki and trust me, they didn’t hold back. The hummus was rich and smooth, and the fresh chopped salad balanced out the plate like a well-packed saddlebag.
But what really sealed the deal? The stellar service fast, friendly, and full of good vibes. They treat you like a regular even if it’s your first time. And at just $13.99, this kind of quality and portion size feels like robbery… the good kind.
So if you’re wandering inland and your boots need a break, make your way to Ali Baba. Take it from the unofficial Cowboy Duke of Almost Everything on the Mendo Coast this place is the real deal.
