"The service is very nice, warm welcoming and professional, ready to explain anything you ask and very supportive. The menu has large choice of fresh seafood, different fishes, calamari, shellfishes, all seafood is fresh from the aquarium, you can just see it and pick your choice. Cooking methods goes between traditional Indonesian style to also simple Chinese, from the rich flavour to the lightest one, it really accommodates any kind of taste. And also vegetarian choices, soups and some meat dishes. Price is also reasonable and the place has also air conditioning and fans. Ps. I love the sambal, which most of the time I only taste the chilli, but in this case you could also where you feels the flavour of other kind of veggies inside, it was very well made. Additionally they also offer a small kids playground. The venue is also clean, kids friendly and beautiful. I recommend it!"

"Baba Restaurant Seafood Semarang – Cozy Spot with Great Ambiance I recently had dinner at Baba Restaurant and really enjoyed the experience. The place has a clean and elegant design, with warm lighting and comfortable seating. The atmosphere feels calm and welcoming – perfect for a casual dinner, whether you’re with friends, family, or even solo. The interior is beautifully decorated, and there’s a glass wall that gives you a view of the indoor garden, which adds a relaxing touch while you eat. It’s spacious too, so even when it’s busy, it doesn’t feel crowded. The seafood dishes were fresh and tasty, and the service was polite and responsive. Overall, a nice spot if you’re looking for good food and a chill dining vibe in Semarang. ⭐ Ambiance: 5/5 ⭐ Food: 4.5/5 ⭐ Service: 4.5/5 ⭐ Comfort: 5/5"

"We have great respect and appreciation for the service at Baba Restaurant. We ordered Serimping with Padang sauce, Gohiong, Tofu Skin Spring Rolls, Butter Garlic Prawns, Baba’s Special Salted Egg Chicken, and Baby Kailan with Oyster Sauce. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfectly suited to our taste. We also requested extra sambal, and they provided four different types, each with an amazing flavor. There was a slight delay with one of the dishes, but we didn’t complain about it. However, the restaurant staff noticed and kindly offered us complimentary fresh-cut fruit as a dessert, which was a thoughtful gesture. Additionally, we truly appreciate Baba’s management for their attention to detail. When we received our Serimping, we noticed that a few pieces were not as fresh as expected, but we didn’t raise any concerns and just let it pass, we understand that not everything can be checked perfectly. To our surprise, the waiter came over and served us a fresh replacement portion without us even mentioning it. This level of attentiveness to customer satisfaction is truly commendable. We highly recommend dining here, and we will definitely be returning. Wishing continued success to Baba Restaurant!"
