Best Greek food hands down in our area. The service is very great and tea was perfect. They are super quick and take care of your refills fast. The Gyro plate is so good. Each piece of meat is tender and juicy. The hummus is so good. A overall

The food here is fantastic, the service is quick, but my only issue is that there is a painful lack of decoration and the atmosphere is quite bland. Other than that 5/5 stars

Food is excellent. Service great. Menu it's full of authentic green and Lebanese dishes. I ordered the Gyro sandwich with fries. Excellent choice for lunch. A lot of meat and the taziki sauce is too die for. The prices are medium to high, but you get a lot for the money.

Had the chicken shawarma and gyros combination this time. Excellent! Service was great as usual, no waiting for service for lunch, and food came out of the kitchen quickly. Restaurant was clean and smelled nice. Given the consistent quality, this is my go-to place now. They are good value for the food and ride the edge of no frills date night and suit and tie, black cocktail dress date night rather well. The latter will be a bit unusual but the decor lends itself well to either one.

We love Greek and Lebanese food. We used to live in Baton Rouge and went to the Albasha there regularly. We tried this location for the first time and it was great. The food and service was excellent. I had the chicken shawarma plate with hummus and feta salad and it was all great. I had the Tiramisu for dessert and it was ok, but I like more coffee taste in my tiramisu and this one had more chocolate and whipped cream sweet taste than I care for. It was still well made with lady fingers and it was fresh.

Albasha has consistently great service and delicious food with some healthy options!! This is their vegetarian greek plate. Baba Ganoush, Hummus, Mujadara(lentils and rice), spinach pie , and tabbouleh! You can pick your own things too! I cleaned the plate without eating any pita bread #win I definitely recommend it!!

I decided to try this place out one day while I was in hammond. Man this food here is delicious. The waiters here are friendly and helpful. They actually know what ingredients are in the food. Cooking doesn't take that long either. Next time I'm in Hammond, I'm going to Albasha
