About this business

Baba means granny in Russian, and this restaurant—named after the fairy tale witch characterized in an Emerson, Lake and Palmer song—has been a fixture among the art galleries, antique stores and second-hand shops in the Montrose area since the early 1970s. The menu features contemporary cuisine ranging from healthy California-style salads, sandwiches and sprouts to burgers, rib eye steaks, pastas and a spicy, old-fashioned Southern gumbo.

Baba Your Pardon?!?! – It is obvious they make little effort with regards to the food. It has been the same stuff since they started their brunch and the quality is pretty bad. There are many, many places that top this for brunch. Service is usually pretty poor, but the atmosphere is very pleasant.

delicious on all levels – Delicious on all levels Baba Yega's serves up some tasty one of a kind dishes like the veggie club (you don't have to be vegetarian to enjoy this one!), or melted brie atop smoked turkey or their mouth watering fantasy. The indoor decor is dark wood with lots of windows, while the outside seating is fettered with flowers, plants, parrots and even a waterfall flowing into a goldfish pond. I have never found the waitstaff to be anything but prompt and curteous. A deliciously exotic dining experience. ... read more

Love the food – My date brought me there for the first time, and I just loved the atmosphere and the food. Nice to think that there are restaurants serving customers who appreciate organic foods.

Avocado Burgers Rate #1 – Baba Yega's is my favorite "new" place to enjoy a hamburger (that actually tastes more like a grilled steak on a bun). The potato salad as a side order complements the burger and is first rate. I highly recommend the "Avocado Burger", although the Veggie Burger is also wonderful. There are many exciting items on the menu that I have yet to try and I look forward to their spinach salad. My daughter ordered it on a recent visit - and a sample of the salad was a delight to the taste buds!

good food, but weird smell – the food was great - I had a delicious salad with great dressing. However, my group sat in the back and there was a weird smell like a mix between insense and cleaning supplies - perhaps the store next door, but it was on the unpleasant side.

You'll love it! – Please come and eat here! This place has the best atmosphere, food, and service. I have been eating here for quite a while and have never encountered bad service. The food is always fresh and delicious. I have moved away from the area but still frequent here and love it. Please try the turkey club!

Baba Yega: still great after 25+ years – After going to this Montrose eatery for many years, I have seen many changes here: staff turnover (seen ubiquitously in restaurants), menu changes, renovation and expansion. A recent visit, however, reassures me that Baba Yega is still as charming as ever. The only unfortunate occurrence over the past few years has been its growing popularity! Crowded dining rooms and patios take a toll on service. Although I had no problems at my table, I did notice the staff visibly stressed and som... read more
