"It's been a long time since I've been to a restaurant where everything was just perfect, and Baghdad Restaurant was. We ordered the Gyro Saj and not only was the presentation impeccable, but it was maybe the best gyro I've had in Syracuse. We also shared an order of Iraqi Chicken Wings which advertised 5 pieces, however the owner generously brought us 6 because he knew we were sharing it. The chicken was perfect, fall off the bone and deliciously crispy. The sauces were wonderful aswell, especially the garlic toum. Would highly reccomend and I will be back again soon."

"Really nice place inside. The lentil soup was on the house and was smooth pepper warm taste. The Iraqi Taco had unique look but would just turn into mush if not eaten right away. The Lamb in the stew was fall off the bone tender and a smoky flavor for the tomato and white beans. Served with rice and order an glass bottle orange soda. Would recommend checking the place out."

"Fresh and tasty food with good portion sizes. Service was fairly quick, and the place has nice decoration and an okay price point. There’s plenty of parking, which is a plus. The restaurant felt a bit hot — maybe the AC was just turned on or being worked on. Not a big variety of drinks, but overall a pleasant dining experience. Food: 5 | Service: 5 | Atmosphere: 4 | Price: 5 Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free parking lot"

"This place is really good, have been to both locations and have been happily surprised each time. Their chicken gyro is excellent. I love that they use the chicken from the stand up grill. Also ordered lentil soup and it was very good. I'm glad I tried it. Came with a huge piece of pita bread that was excellent as well. Service was great, even got a call to clarify my order before making it. That is going above and beyond. Food was made right away, no waiting, fresh and excellent. The restaurant looks nice inside kind of quiet could almost a quaint little place to take a date. Either way, their food was great."
