Babylon Cafe

A classic gyro from Babylon is one of my top favorites when wanting something hearty yet on a higher protein meal. The owner is always kind and patient while ordering and speedy with the turn around time for the order.

Que Hall and Oats....How does it Feel to be Back? I haven't worked in Richmond since 2015 so it has been that long since I was in this delightful little place! We had a pretty sunny day and I felt confident in finding a parking spot in downtown Richmond!I scored a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant and I was excited to be there. It was 12:30 pm and I was expecting a crowd, back in the day there would have been a line and folks jockey for tables. But I walked right up to order and I didn't see a menu - so I just told the gentleman at the counter I wanted hummus and falafel and hoped for the best. I was not disappointed!I got a l lovely plate of smooth garlicy hummus, with pickles, tomatoes and Kalama olives as garnish. Three warm, crunchy on the outside light and flaky on the inside falafel, warm peta and my own little tub of their homemade tzatziki sauce. My service was fast and friendly. I am so happy they are still there serving up tasty treats, and I am thrilled To Be Back!

We really like the food at Babylon Cafe, but I am afraid it is closed. We tried to eat here on Sat., Dec 9th, at 7:30. The sign says they close at 8. Yelp says they close at 9. Please update correct hours! I love chicken kabobs and my husband likes the lamb schwarma. The humus is delicious. I also like the stuffed grape leaves, dolmas. Will try it again if we get the hours figured out.

Delicious food and excellent service! The best falafel in Kentucky! The falafel is perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious! Did I mention the falafel is served on a bed of tasty hummus, with delicious garnishes and warm pita bread! The gyro and fries both eaten with lots of their tasty tzatziki sauce are a must try as well! Order the gyro with feta cheese and extra tzatziki sauce and you won't regret it! Chicken and rice and chicken shawarma are also excellent choices! The Greek salad is delicious as well! Meals also include a can or bottled beverage and their are lots of great options to chose from!

Read all these great reviews, went to the Babylon Cafe and it's locked up tight, guess yelp is wrong.Sure sucked to drive then walk to get there for this

The food was beautiful and delicious! The meat was tender and the seasoning was excellent. The fries were hot and fresh and had seasoning as well. The staff was very kind and friendly. I've ate there twice and have not been disappointed.

I first found Babylon when I was in the area visiting family. The gyro meal is the greatest! I now live in the area, and go here at least once per month, and always take friends to try their food, when we can't decide where to go. They even managed to make numerous meals my picky 6 year old loves!The food is authentic, delicious, and you get soooo much food! The owners are super friendly, and I just love chatting with them when I go in to pick up my order.

Came here on a Wednesday afternoon for lunch. I ordered the lunch pick 3 special for $8.99I had the Greek salad, rice and chicken shawarma. Everything was very delicious and very filling, I couldn't eat the pita bread the sandwich came on so I just added to my salad. Super tasty! Definitely worth coming here if you're in the area. Great Mediterranean food and the staff here was super friendly and helpful. I will return next time I'm in Richmond.

The gyros are some of the best I've ever had at a very reasonable price. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. It's pretty much a hole in the wall but it's pretty clean. The food is worth it.

Excellent food and service. I'm unfamiliar with some of their offerings, or was, like falafel and schwarma. But the server patiently explained what's in them. Try their baklava, it's fabulous.
