Just a good restaurant. Overpriced for the food you get. Had a 3 course meal, nothing was impressive. Good quality but nothing better than a regular Chicago Steak house for double the price

We have been frequent diners at Ba-Ba-Reeba for many years. The food and experience has remained consistent. I wish they would bring back some of the staples like endive salad and the banana dessert. The menu feels smaller than it used to, but overall still great!

It's deceptively easy to end up in Bordel instead! Which is pleasant, but unexpected.
