Heidar Baba, Pasadena, CA (Guest: Baba Ali) – Sameer’s Eats [Halal Food/Restaurant Review]
Contact us to Add Your Business
Sameer visits one of the finest Halal Persian cuisines in the country with comedian, Baba Ali. Located in Pasadena, CA, Heider Baba is known for its mouthwatering kababs. Watch Sameer non-chalantly eat a hot pepper and ruin his mouth! While Sameer's tongue is on fire, he manages to find deep flavors in his plate and top off his dinner with dessert and tea. Sameer regrets not meeting the owner and chef of this fine establishment. However, Sameer is thankful that Baba Ali, a Persian himself, was able to give him an overview of the dishes presented.
Sameer's Eats brings you the latest on halal eateries. The majority of restaurants Sameer visits are "Zabiha-Halal" restaurants. This means if Sameer is eating meat then he has inquired if the restaurant serves meat that is slaughtered and prepared according to Islamic Laws (and prepared using halal ingredients). Sameer does not in any way guarantee the meat is Zabihah-Halal, he does his best to ask and inquire if it is. This video is one of the many episodes where Sameer & his crew will be on the road filming, eating & reviewing halal food and restaurants across North America.

Which is why I went and had Persian food tonight here in NJ 🙂
@mrspeel7 That’s awesome! Thanks so much for your support! 🙂
@amandarasul I live in New Jersey and can’t wait to go back there next time I’m in LA! Thanks for watching! 🙂
@mrspeel7 I’m glad you loved the video ! At times I wished I was in California so I can visit Heidar Baba and other Halal restaurants more frequently! When you go there, have a Kabob for me too 🙂
You make my mouth water!
Halfway through, I kept thinking about how lucky I am to work next to Pitalicious in Torrance, where I have lunch whenever I can. Really. I told the manager, “I’d dine here every day, if I could do so!”
And now I learn of such cuisine just a few miles from where I live!
I plan to visit Heidar Baba soon!
We have dropped two episodes thus far from Chicago 🙂
@sameerseats Yes! Sameer! I went there last week with my sister; we were SO jazzed to eat there! I told our waitress, “Sameer sent us!” And she broke out into a big grin!

The more of these episodes you make the more I realise that we need more than “fish and chips” in the UK lol.
You gotta try Persian(Iranian) stews (Khoresht) as well, like Ghormehsabzi, Fesenjan, Gheymeh etc.

the persian guy who doesn’t know Sumak is ground dried berries…not a flower…

Baba Ali is fun and adorable 🙂 Sameer, you don’t know anything about food. Why are you doing a food channel?
Persian restaurants usually serve halal , but they always also serve alchohol!!!!
