Babylon

“Great food, exceptional service, and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.”

Roxanne Panaite★★★★★

Five stars aren't even enough for Babylon! If you’re in Exeter and haven't been here yet, you are seriously missing out. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve visited, and it never misses. The food is consistently fresh and cooked to absolute perfection. The chicken and lamb are legitimately addictive: tender, juicy, and seasoned in a way that makes you start planning your next visit before you've even finished your meal. Beyond the food, the service is above and beyond every single time. It’s rare to find a place that feels this welcoming. My advice: * Try everything: You really can't go

The food was really good here. Very authentic and tasty. I ate the Adana with rice and salad, which was very spit on and delicious. The complimentary lentil soup and hot fresh bread with hummus and yogurt dill sauce was great. Must go !!

I had an incredible meal here and I’m only gutted that I don’t live in Exeter, otherwise, I’d be eating here more often! We ordered the Lamb Chops and Lamb Ribs, and both were phenomenal. The meat was perfectly marinated and packed with authentic Middle Eastern flavor—absolutely no "gamey" smell or taste at all. The chops were juicy and the ribs were tender and subtly spiced. The portions are very generous for the price (especially considering they come with rice/biryani, salad, and bread), and the quality is top-notch. If you are looking for a satisfying, authentic grill in the city, this is

Had a fantastic lunch at Babylon in Exeter. The food was absolutely superb, beautifully cooked, full of flavour, and clearly prepared with real care. Everything we had was spot on. What really made the visit though was the service. The front-of-house gentleman was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and clearly passionate about the food. He happily explained the dishes, made some great recommendations, and even brought out a couple of complimentary tasters, which was a lovely touch and really enhanced the whole experience. Great food, exceptional service, and a genuinely welcoming atmosp
