What Connie Willms doesn't like about Babalu:
Not too fancy on this restaurant. It was my first time and I won't be back. It smelled like a rotten fish market in there. The cooks obviously don't know what they are doing. If you can't properly cook fries you need a new occupation. The sauces aren't correct to the dish you order either. The service felt a bit suffocating as the 2 waitresses that were on were over lapping each other.. So every 2 seconds someone was... View all feedback.
I'm definitely pleased with the improvements they've done here The new owners really seem to care about cleanliness and food quality.
First off, my boyfriend ordered the liver and asked for it to be medium rare It came just about raw and the server said "that's our medium rare".

I always see this place packed and wanted to know why. Came in or some breakfast and it was delicious. Just great southern style cooking. The prices are set amazing. We had a party of three and only spent about $30. Id definitely recommend.
Update: After a not so good first impression, I was able to take to the owner and he apologized and was very nice. In the end he gave me a free meal. It was 1,000x better than my first experience and will try them again. I spoke with a woman named Gale who took my order. She was very sweet and welcoming as well. I ordered delivery. A shrimp po' boy sandwich with 2 sides. I work at the animal hospital right down the road from the restaurant and coworkers highly recommended it. Unfortunately I waited over 45 minutes for my order, and when I got my food I was missing a side and my onion rings and shrimp were cold and soggy. I called to let the staff know and the lady just said she would send another of the side I was missing and hung up without an apology.
