Baba's Original New York System

This restaurant used to have a classic feel of a neighborhood weiner shop, but it seems they have ruined that vibe by focusing primarily on takeout orders.

The $1.00 charge for each side dish was a bit pricey. We originally came for the hot dogs, but were not impressed as they had a strange taste. We also tried the brownie, which was extremely dry and lacked flavor.

The staff at this restaurant is incredibly friendly and the food is delicious. It's a traditional favorite.

Upon entering the establishment at around 3pm, I was struck by the serene ambiance that pervaded the interior. The stark contrast between the tranquil atmosphere inside and the lackluster exterior was noticeable, albeit not surprising. As my main objective was to indulge in their renowned hot dogs, I paid little attention to the overall aesthetics or cleanliness of the place. Upon placing my order, I eagerly awaited the arrival of my culinary selections. To my delight, my hot dogs and coffee milk were promptly served at my table. The first bite of the hot dog was a revelation a burst of unique flavors that set it apart from the competition. However, I couldn't help but notice that the texture of the hot dogs leaned towards the softer side, which was a minor inconvenience. Despite this minor flaw, I found myself becoming a fan of the establishment's hot dogs and already looking forward to trying their other sandwich offerings in the future. The distinct flavors and overall experience have piqued my curiosity, and I plan to return for more gastronomic adventures. In conclusion, while the exterior may not have been impressive, the serene ambiance inside, prompt service, and delectable hot dogs with their unique flavors have won me over. I eagerly anticipate my next visit to explore further culinary delights that this establishment has to offer.

Great place to grab a hot wiener, I’ve always been a fan of Olneyville New York System but after visiting Baba’s I might have a new favorite. The menu here is definitely more extensive, although let’s be honest if I’m coming here I’m probably getting 3 all the way. The food is just as good as Olneyville and the prices are similar, maybe slightly higher but nothing significant. I don’t think they have coffee milk on the menu (could be wrong) but they do have shakes. I will say it’s less of a classic RI feel, so if you have family or friends visiting and they want to try a hot wiener, I’d take them to Olneyville. But as a local, this just might be a better option.
