We love this place and have been here at least 8 times since finding it on yelp in the summer.
The food is soooo yummy! We have tried a few different things all good but I can't get past the falafel.
Also love the couple who own this place! -

I hate to give this place a mediocre review since it's so highly recommended on yelp, but there were some problems with our meal so I'll give it 3 Stars with the hope that maybe we did dine at BC on an off day.
-Scwherma platter with chicken: the pita bread was TOUGH. It was hard to tear, let alone chew. Wasn't fresh, was probably sitting out for a day or two. Also, the chicken was ok. Looked like something just thrown in the oven and baked. No color, not grilled, not much flavor, just plain, but atleast it wasn't dry.
-Gyro wrap: They should call this a veggie wrap with some lamb. Overloaded with cucumbers and tomatoes to hide the fact that there was hardly any meat inside. Very disappointing. However, the spicy sauce was pretty good and the pita bread used for the wrap was much better. Soft like what pita bread should be.
-Herb fries: awesome! French fries covered in herbs. Best part of the meal. But I wouldn't come back just for the fries.
The owners were extremely nice and I almost feel guilty that I didn't like the food, but I've had better Greek food so I probably won't be back. -

1 star = Terrible. Multiple things went wrong. Never going back.
2 star = Not good. I will not go back, but it wasnt absolutely awful.
3 star = Good, not great. I wouldnt go out of my way, but I *would* go back.
4 star = Excellent food. I really liked it. I could be a regular here.
5 star = Phenomenal food. Something truly special here.
We really loved Baladie Cafe! The food was delicious and the owner and his wife were super nice.
We had the gyro plate, the shawarma plate, and the grape leaves and it was all awesome. The baklava was PERFECT. Baklava can be too moist or too dry, but BC's was just right.
The only reason that we might consider trying another Greek place is that BC is kind of a haul from Summerlin, but the owners were so nice I would feel like I was cheating on them :)
Dont hesitate to try this place. -

I have been coming here off and on for the past couple of years. For a quick filling bite, the wraps are best to order. The falafels are pretty tasty as well, and can be requested to be made spicy. I've had more items from their menu, but we mostly go for the gyros or the shawarmas!
The ambience is adequate since most are just going in to get the quick bite to go, just wish they would expand into a bigger place (maybe a little closer to the 215/decatur area - please?)! Owners are very friendly and will recognize you after a few visits (if not by name, definitely by face)! So that's a plus! They are very friendly towards children to. The one time I had my daughter (she was a little over 2) sit down to eat, the owners brought ought a couple of extra goodies without extra charges.
The bonus is that this location is next to the Ace Hardware store which has a lot of Hawaiian snack goodies we like to get.
I'll be back here soon! -

Excellent service and the food is always amazing!
It's better to call ahead. The restaurant is kind of small.
I love their baba ghanoush, but I have a hard time ordering anything other than a gyro because it's just so delicious! The rice pudding is also amazing. -

I go to this place about once a month on average. I love their gyros and the mom and pop customer service. The seasoning on their fries is so good. The espresso machine is still not working!
It doesn't have the ambiance of a place like Paymon's, but the food is so much better.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Why did it take me so long to write a review for this place......I've been in love with it for years! Truly a little gem in the northwest. The couple/owners are so inviting and do always remember your face or name. The salad is to die for.....I'm not kidding, it's probably the best, most consistantly yummy greek salad I've had. Always fresh cool and crisp and the greek dressing mixed with feta crumbles really just take it over the top. Try the lamb and beef schwerma....yum the hummus just completes the flavors of this wrap. Their kabobs with the basmati rice and side of seasoned tomato sauce is also a favorite of mine. Ooooops.....cannot forget their ahhhhhhmazzzing fries with the special seasoning that is truly addicting.
Can't say enough about this place. I'm lucky to live and work in the area so I visit as often as my tummy tells me to, which is a lot!
Support your locals! -

Baladie Cafe is exactly the kind of restaurant I use Yelp for. A locally owned place most would pass right over, but for the massive number of positive reviews. I was not disappointed by the food. One caveat before my review; I am not knowledgeable about Mediterranean food, so my review is based solely on taste, and nothing on authenticity.
You can get pita wraps, kabobs, spanakopita, moussaka, and platters with a mix of food. Wanting to try a bit of everything, I went with the Greek Sampler. It came with:
1) Half Greek salad - good flavor on the dressing, but don't expect many toppings.
2) Spanakopita - Savory pastry with spinach, quite good
3) Moussaka - An eggplant dish, I don't like eggplant but the meat & potatoes were flavorful
4) Pita, Gyro meat, Tzatziki sauce - Best Gyro meat I've had, nice taste on the sauce
5) Dolmas (2) - Rice & flavoring wrapped in Grape leaves - Soft rice, nice taste
The highlight of the night had to be the pistachio baklava. Not too sweet, and not too dry. I ordered 2, and almost went back for more they were so good. I'm trying to decide how often I can go back before it gets to be weird.
Once you've been once, you can call ahead for your order, but they have very quick service even when you walk in. I will definitely be going back soon to try something else. -

Baladie Cafe is a diamond in the rough, a true winner in a neighborhood that generally suffers from a lack of great cuisine. Thanks to Jade and my trusted Yelpers for finding this spot. It's fairly close to my work, and I can't believe I have found it just recently.
I have been twice so far, and each time has gotten better. First time around I had the Greek Platter, which is a fun sampler of a few different Greek foods. The pita bread can be separated into a pocket for stuffing your samples. I enjoyed every bit of it! The second visit I had the Shawerma wrap with added feta cheese and seasoned french fries, ordered spicy of course. The wrap comes with a thicker pita bread, pre-wrapped with goodness. It is basically like a gyro, but with hummus instead of Tzatziki sauce. I have to say, the hummus is friggin killer here. I much prefer it over the Tzatziki sauce. In fact, if I were to find one thing that isn't five star about this place, it would be the Tzatziki sauce. It is just a little bland to me.
The service is friendly and casual. This family owned business aims to please. When we went today with some coworkers, we brought our "meat and potatoes" coworker (basically he has the pallet of a 5 year old). The owner heard us teasing him as we always do, and when he came to our table to ask if everything was good, he joked, "I'm asking him, not you!" He already knows I'm a huge fan, and his concern was to please even the pickiest eater! -

Places like this are why I love yelp. With less than an hour for lunch while visiting from out of town, my wife and I were delighted to find this place. We shared a delicious lamb kabob - perfectly marinated and tender, with a simple rice pilaf and pita on the side. Super friendly owners, who answered all of our questions with grace and humor. Nice to know the lamb is halal.

Wow, the other reviewers really aren't kidding when they say the owners of this restaurant are super nice and helpful! I'm no Mediterranean food connoisseur so it was kind of relieving when I walked in Baladie Cafe and wasn't pressured to order quickly or expected to know how to pronounce everything on the menu!
Anyway, I ordered my food to-go which it's recommended that you call ahead and place your order but since they don't have a copy of their menu online, first-time customers have to go in and order and wait. (They have paper menus you can take home with you). The wait isn't suspiciously fast by any means, it's just long enough for you to study the menu, read through your Facebook newsfeed and catch up on Words with Friends.
I got the Mediterranean platter ($8.99), the Greek Sampler platter (10.99), a side of seasoned fries ($1.60) and the lamb&beef shawerma ($5.50).
The Mediterranean platter is very flavorful and seems more like a healthy snack-plate or a small appetizer to share. It's a vegetarian platter that includes pita bread, hummus, babaghanouj (seasoned mashed eggplant), falafels (deep fried mashed chickpeas), dolmas (stuffed grape leaves), tabouli (finely chopped parsley, tomatoes, cucumbers and bulgar wheat), and a little lettuce, tomato, cucumber, pickle, olives and feta cheese off to the side. I would definitely get this again!
The Greek Sampler platter is only $2 more than the Mediterranean platter but it seemed like so much more food! It includes pitas, a half-size of their Greek salad, spanakopita (like Baklava but bigger & made with spinach instead of honey and nuts), mousaka (cooked eggplant dish), gyro meat, tzatziki (cucumber yogurt sauce), dolmas (stuffed grape leaves), and tomato, olives and feta cheese on the side. I built my own little pita pockets with the gyro meat, tzatziki, tomato and feta, plus I added a bit of the tabouli from the Mediterranean plate. It was DELICIOUS!
The seasoned fries were okay. They tasted homemade and sort of... healthy? I don't know. Some people may prefer these fries but I like the crispiness and saltiness of fast food fries too much to trade them in for Baladie's fries.
I didn't try the shawerma because it was for my husband and he ate it quickly, but he said it was delicious.
This place was great, the owners were sweet, the food was great. I will definitely be going back! -

Review from Nicholas W.
Livermore, CA
The staff was very pleasant. Walked in and asked for what is popular and help finding something that would please my taste buds. The gentleman behind the counter helped my girlfriend and I out. We were looking at the pictures on yelp and decided to get baklava for dessert after we finished our chicken shawerma w/feta and lamb and beef gyro w/feta wraps. We were pleasantly filled and got the pistachio baklava to go.
The entire meal was super tasty and filling!!!
You must check this place out, customer service and great food are awaiting your visit. -

They can even cater events... we recently had them cater for my office and they went way above and beyond what we needed....and the price was right! Can't beat this place!

Good food, tasty and fresh. We ordered chicken shawerma and a beef and lamb gyro. Reminded me of Mad Greek, but much better. Very filling. The pistacho baklava is yummy.
The owners are very nice and courteous. They deserve a 5 star review. -

Looking for that amazing little Medditerranean hole-in-the wall that everyone should definitely know about? Then Baladie Cafe is it! They have a big selection on their menu that includes items from NY deli style bagels to authentic Green dolmas (that are a way better deal than the dolmas you find at Whole Foods).
The best part is that you are greeted directly by the owners who are an amazingly nice couple that truly do appreciate their customers. I had the Lamb and Beef Shwarma easy spicy with red onions. Loaded with hummus and lamb and beef, this wrap is amazing and a great portion. The pita is so soft and delicious. My fiance got the Lamb and Beef Gyro (which I got a laugh at the phonetic spelling they had to include on the menu) with feta which also is pretty sizable. You can taste the tzatiki and the feta and all the ingredients with each bite. We also got an order of the herb fries which comes with an amazing herb sauce.
The food is delicious at a great price. You can call ahead for faster orders. I am definitely trying the dolmas and baklava and spanikopita the next time (and there will definitely be a next time and bringing friends). I just want to try everything! -
Review from Jason C.
Las Vegas, NV
This is what YELP is for and the Baladie cafe is for Yelpers! I can really appreciate a small privately owned place. I appreciate a place where the owners appreciate my business.
It is a small place in a Vons plaza - but the Vons is closed. I have been by here a million times but never even thought about going in here for lunch.
It is a tiny place with 5 or 6 tables. They have mediterranean food and greek food. I had the Gyro plate with some fries. The fries were seasoned and served with a flavorful dipping sauce. The Gyro plate had all the fixins for a gyro but it was unassembled. I liked putting it together. All the ingredients were fresh and flavorful.
This place offers a great value. The food is quality eats... something you would expect in a finer establishment with higher prices. So for a quick serve place and quick serve prices - you get great food, real plates, and great service!
Since I live in the general area it was refreshing to find a mom and pop joint mixed in with all of the chain restaurants.
(I have been staring at my computer debating whether I should do 4 or 5 stars...) -

I could give 'Baladie Cafe' 5 stars, simply because of the owners.That being said, the food here is good enough to back up that 5 star rating!
This is the kind of restaurant Yelp was created for. It's small, privately owned, and nowhere near where tourist's of Las Vegas would think to look. Once somebody does find this resturant however they seem to become a ''regular.'' I go here multiple times a week for breakfast, lunch, or dinner and I often see many familiar faces. The two most familiar being the 2 owners who are always happy, friendly, and willing to chat with customers if wanted.
Now, on to the food!
If I was going to tell you the best items of the menu I would have to, literally, copy the entire menu in this review. It may seem like an exaggeration but I've never heard of anyone not liking something they tried here. I often come in for breakfast and get a bagel sandwich. (they are leaps and bounds above Dunkin' Donuts or anywhere like that.) They are made to order and the bagels are delicious. Two lunch favorites of mine are the "Rotisserie Chicken" and the "Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Sandwich" - extra spicy. Both are extremely tasty. (...it's 2am and now I am hungry thanks to this review.)
In short - if you are a local - or a tourist - looking for homemade Mediterranean food, Greek food, or a damn good breakfast sandwich, in a city riddled with big chain restaurants, you need to get to Baladie Cafe! -

Oh my heck! I ate here for the very first time yesterday and was absolutely enchanted by the experience. Initially, it is an intimate dining experience without any unnecessary trappings. The restaurant was quiet, clean and comfortable. The owners are, frankly, as charming as was the food. The food service was personal and prompt. They were very attentive to me. While enjoying the food, I observed several customers enter and interact with them and have the firm conviction they are this way to everyone.
While the interpersonal dynamics alone would be enough to bring me here again, they paled in comparison to the taste of the food.
I decided to try the Greek Sampler Plate to get an overview of what they did well. On the spur of the moment, I decided to go for a cup of the Shorba soup also. I was asked if I wanted it spicy and answered in the affirmative.
The soup was incredible! Halfway through I was regretting not ordering a bowl of it. The "heat" was barely noticeable, but enough to accentuate the subtle nuance of the broth. I drained that cup just as the Greek salad was brought to the table.
The salad was perfectly dressed. All the greens were covered in a perfectly light but flavorful dressing--not saturated in it. The salad was much bigger than I had anticipated and I was concerned about my ability to finish the rest of my meal.
Nevertheless, I endured and am glad I did. The dolma was tasty, the potato-eggplant dish was divine, but the topper was the gyro meat which was the BEST I have ever tasted in my life! I told my wife I would swear off carne asada forever if I could guarantee a constant source of this meat. Alone or with Tzatziki sauce it was incredible. I knew I couldn't adequately explain to my wife how good this food was, so I decided to save some of it for her. Unfortunately, I just kept noshing on the meat until I had only a very little left.
I will definitely be back here often. If you like good greek food at a very reasonable price. This is the place to go! -

5 stars for the hands down best Greek/Mediteranian food in Las Vegas.. The owners.. Amira and Hocene are the most
charming wonderful people and Amiras cooking is like coming home to moms house and having a home cooked meal. Everything is made fresh and made with love. If you live in Vegas , you will be hooked after the 1st time. I will never eat at Paymens or other so called Greek restaurants in Vegas again. Anything you order here is great!!! -

This is a gem. We are regulars for shwarmas. But its the fries...oh heavenly fries with the best dipping sauce ever. Seasoned with herbs. Oh man.
Homemade baklava
..in walnut or (oh joy and rapture) pistachios. I thought that was heaven til I tried the rice pudding. So Fab.
We also love the Greek salad.
The couple who runs this place have true mom n pop personality. They run it themselves and start at six am. Good people.
This is a place to go. Don't walk...run there! -
Review from Jade W.
I brought the BF for lunch...poor thing has been sick and needs some good,simple, healthy foods.
We split:
A falafel wrap- yummy. Fresh falafel, cucumbers, onions, lettuce, hummus, chili sauce. The falafel is fresh made and not some box mix.
A Greek plate which has spanakopita, moussaka, gyro meat, tzatsiki, 2 dolmas, fetta cheese, half greek salad, pita bread. The spanakopita was wrapped individually in phyllo and not cut out of a casserole. I like theirs- it's not greasy like other places. The moussaka came as a surprise....most places it's so dry and taste like it sat around. This was saucy and had a nice balance of spices....I would actually order a whole portion here, which I have never done. I made little sandwiches with the gyro, pita, tomatoes and olive on the plate and tzatziki- all good. Dolmas here are great.
I bought a box of baklava to take home. I like that they don't over pour honey on the layer of nuts since that usually makes it so hard to bite through. It's just right amounts of everything. Me loves.
So glad I was able to come back...it's been a while since my first visit though I promised to be back! Better late than never, but the next visit should come sooner.Listed in: Yelparazzi Coming Thru!

Been meaning to get to Baladie for a while now, and it was all I hoped it would be... Tasty, tasty, tasty!
Went with fellow Yelparazzi, Jade W., as we both were very excited to try out the food here. I ordered the Falafel Pita Wrap (with seasoned fries and sauce), and she ordered the Shwarma Pita Wrap (with Dolmas). I really (really) enjoyed my wrap, it was fresh, well constructed, with just enough spice and sauce. Delish. (I'll let you read Jade's review for her take on the items she ordered). The fries here are also quite good. The seasoning and the sauce they give you is very similar to what they serve at Paymon's, so if you like their fries, these will also hit the spot.
At the end of our meal, we tried the Baklava, and this was nothing less than outstanding. Perfect sweet, crisp, and chew. I could eat an entire pan of it.
Beyond the food, the service here is excellent! The owners run the place, make everything fresh and from scratch, they are kind and friendly, and are fun to talk with. We had a nice chat about Yelp, in fact, and they were excited to check out their reviews.
This is a place to go out of your way to try... everything from the cute atmosphere to the owners and especially the food was great! Go...Listed in: Fresh Brewed Iced Tea!, UNDER $10 -- LUNCH!

I was next door at Ace Hardware and cold not resist the urge for baba ganoush and tabouli, so I stopped in to get some to bring back home. These two items are usually my barometers for a Mediterranean joint. The owners are wonderful and very friendly - and so I really wanted to like to food better. The baba ganoush was good, but not great, and the tabouli was just edible. The diet coke was flat.
I hope I have a chance to come back, because I really want to like this place more. Next time I'll sit and stay, and order a real meal. -

If you are (for some reason like the DMV) in this area, hungry or not, stop in. Even if you are just on the North end of town, stop in. Or if you are an enthusiast on family owned, cute, mom and pop businesses where mom makes the Baklava (and probably everything else) herself!
Love this place as much for the food as for the people. Very personable Greek couple who just own a Greek cafe and Bagel place. So much fun to talk to and if you have time on a slow afternoon to sit and chat I would say go for it.
The gyro sandwich is probably the biggest I have had, and good flavor. Not the best I have had, but a very close runner up. The pita bread is the real winner, soft but oh so good.
They also serve seasoned fries alongside-tasty.
BAKLAVA!! BAKLAVA!!
Pistachio AND walnut.
We took home three of each and definitely the best baklava I have ever eaten. I'm no expert on it, but loved them both.Listed in: Best of VEGAS

First off the owners of this joint make you feel like friends the moment you walk in and the food matches their warmth! If you like GOOD Mediterranean food this is the place for you.
I had the shawerma with the spicy humus and it was top notch. The pitas and humus were great and the meat very flavorful. My wife had the gyro wrap with the lamb and commented that it was the best gyro she has ever had. To finish we got the pistachio and walnut baklava, I was in heaven.
It has been a long times since I have enjoyed food this good and hospitality this friendly. We will be making Baladie Cafe one of our regular stops! -

I love this place!!
They have bagels on weekend mornings. You can get them plain with just cream cheese or made into delectable sandwiches. It's an easy decision to chose this place rather than McDonald's across the street!
I haven't had a chance to try much of their other foods, but the dolmas are some of the best I have had and a very good price. You can order 6 to go for around $2.50. There are a lot of vegetarian options as well. Their baklava is homemade and absolutely divine (not to mention beautiful)
The staff is very friendly and after you have been there a couple of times they will remember you, which I like.Listed in: Places to eat in NW Las Vegas

The pita bread must be frozen, and it tastes like it. I am used to the piping hot, fresh from the oven pitas served at Khoury's in the SW, so I was very disappointed with the gummy, bland, freezer burned taste of the pita at Baladie. The portions are small, even at about $8-$10 a person.
I had tasteless, unseasoned falafel, and hummus that was just as bland. Middle Eastern food is usually fragrant and delicious with exotic spices, but the food here is the exception.
For a restaurant located in a strip mall, it sure is decorated like one-Shabby, no ambiance, not very clean. Boring, tasteless, food and no reason to return. -
Review from Shawn H.

6/23/2010
Tried the gyro, it wasn't bad but it wasn't special IMO. It was a good price, about $5.50 I think, which may be why I was still a little hungry afterwards. I guess a $8-9 gyro should have almost twice as much meat, but even taste vs taste, I probably wouldn't come here again for a gyro.
I did not try any other food there though, which I am sure would have been good. Maybe one day I will be more brave and try new med food.
Another tiny complaint, we came in on a weekend around lunchtime 130-2pm, and we (wife and I) were the only people there, even after we were done with our food. After we ordered, the owners or people working the front disappeared and I never saw them after they dropped off the food. They didn't ask how the food was, and we didn't have the chance to say thank you, since they left and never came back out LOL -

Great gyros especially with the spicy sauce added but the fries seem to be a touch better great place
