I'm a big fan of Baba! There are several Indian buffets around this area but I think Baba is one of the best. The food is always hot and fresh and there is a good selection. The chicken just melts in your mouth! I think the lunch buffet is a tad pricey but that's about the only complaint. More

Out of all Indian restaurants in Cincinnati, this one has to be the best! When you pull up to the parking lot (with ample spaces), you'll see something akin to a refurbished diner, but it appears much nicer inside. They've also recently added a larger outdoor patio space, if you want to eat outside. The food is always great, and... More

We came for the lunch buffet which I guess changes daily. We really enjoyed the food. The flavor was good and not as spicey as normal indian. The service was ok, typical for a buffet.

We had not visited for almost a year, but returned last evening. This place still is the gold standard in Cincinnati for Indian food. We shared chicken tikka, a massive portion on a sizzling plate, which is served with dal, eggplant with mushrooms, and chicken makhani. The flavors and spices in the latter two dishes were out of this world... More

They have excellent chicken tikki masala. It is in an old fast food restaurant but, the food is so worth it. More
