| - Update from review given 8/9/16. Babalu's customer service manager reached out to our group and it is evident they are indeed taking heart to hear the issues with customer service and food. I went back for dinner on 8/27/16 with a group of 6 people. I personally ordered the tuna and salmon small plates. They were both very good. One person ordered the chorizo and shrimp and stated it was very good. 4 people ordered the tacos and that was hit or miss. 3 of the people said they liked the tacos and one person said the tacos lacked flavor and did not finish his last one. I jokingly told him that I had hinted to order the American fare and he took his chances anyway :-) The pinnacle was the bread pudding. OMG ... the trip is worth the bread pudding alone... which I wish I would have gotten, my friend only gave me a sample. It was AMAZING, warm, and delicious served with whipped cream and strawberries. I personally got the Mexican Chocolate fudge which was a mistake. I was expecting a Mexican chocolate flavor with spicy heat and cinnamon, and instead I got the taste of bittersweet dark chocolate and salt. No, no, no. Another friend got the pineapple empanadas served with a scoop of ice cream and it was very, very good. It reminded me of a fruit turnover rather than a Mexican fruit empanada (due to the flavor inside). Again, if you stick to the Southern fare you should be good. Our server Jordyn was very pleasant and took good care of us. The only little slip was I asked the manager for a to go box when he asked about our experience and he never came back and hence I never received one, so I just put my dessert in some napkins and took it with me. Otherwise, the service organization was much better this time around, we all got the order we submitted correctly.
