Ali Baba Turkish Restaurant

Ali Baba serves Turkish food on Cambridge Street in Charlestown, with grilled kebabs, döner, and pide at the center of the menu. Lentil soup makes a smaller start, while the kitchen’s breads give you something to eat alongside the meat. The restaurant serves halal food and offers both dine-in meals and pickup, making it useful for a sit-down dinner or an order to bring home.

There’s a sweet finish available too, including rice pudding and kazandibi, a caramelized milk pudding. This Charlestown location keeps late hours, extending further on Friday and Saturday. Check the current menu when ordering and make sure you’ve selected the Cambridge Street branch, since similarly named restaurants elsewhere can be easy to mix up.
