The food here is authentic Cuban combined with some nuevo Latino dishes. The surroundings are fun and funky. Dont miss the mojitos.

A prominent portrait of Desi Arnaz, conga drum bar stools, live salsa music on weekends: this place is all about fun. Many of the classic Cuban dishes on the menu come from owner Steve DeCastro's family recipes, such as savory ropa vieja (a stew of shredded beef) and seafood paella, brimming with shrimp, shellfish, and chorizo. The bar serves an impressive list of obscure rums and tequilas,... more

Photographs, an elegant bar lined with grandiose mirrors, low-hung lights and bongo drums add to the authentic Cuban vibe. The Food Real Cuban cuisine served with pizzazz.

From the expansive outdoor seating options on the plaza of Power Plant Live, to the bongos turned bar stools inside, Babalu gives everything you need to imbibe its highly infectious but accessible Latin flavor. Thursday - Saturday nights capable DJ's spin mostly hip-hop/dance standards belying the Latino atmosphere, but after 2 or 3 righteous Mojitos you might not mind so much. $10 cover most... more

Our group of birthday girls (all born in the same month) had a wonderful evening out at Babalu Grill. From the prompt service to the tasty drinks to the delicious main courses, we enjoyed it all. The ropa vieja--a shredded beef dish--was excellent. A very fun evening out!

Don't recommend it.

Out of 50% of items on the menu on a Tuesday night at 6:30pm. Ropa vieja was not good. Dessert was not good. Service was poor. Certain things ordered were never delivered to the table. Prices were not too bad. Plantains were not good. I would not recommend the restaurant.
