Baba's Hot Chicken - Benton Park

Our first time coming, everything was amazing taste, good halal burger option in Bakersfield.

So this was my first time there and I ordered a few things to get a good feel for it. So I’ll give my thoughts on everything, starting on experience with ordering (along with food out of 10).Atmosphere and staff: Super friendly, and not much was actually inside. There are only a couple tables, which was fine since I ordered to go.Food: I ordered Baba’s chicken sandwich (hot spice level), fries, and the Mac n cheese.The chicken sandwich was good, but there was a spice that kind of put me off. It tasted like cumin, and was very reminiscent of taco seasoning. Good spice level though. For that reason I’d give it a 7 out of 10.The fries were crinkle cut and were nice and crispy. They were also thick and very potato-y, if that makes sense. 8.5 out of 10.The Mac n cheese was good, but not incredible. It seemed to have a different type of cheese or something mixed in, which was kind of a nice surprise. 7.5 out of 10.So all in all not bad. I would go again, but probably try the grilled cheese. I was intrigued.

I placed an order over the phone for a pick up and they said they'd start making the food if I paid over the phone, which I did, and they stated it'd be ready in 15 minutes. took me 20 minutes to get there and my order wasn't ready. waited another 15-20 minutes until my order was ready.

Crispy and juicy chicken. Cooked right when you order. It tastes amazing. They best part is you can select your level of spicy. Mini baba is a pretty good size. Mac and cheese is great.

I love the Hot flavor. It starts from classic to extreme and I always stop for the hot chicken sandwich ? with fries and font forget the house on the side.
