Is the restaurant so quiet that any childish outburst will draw attention or is there enough noise that a small cry is likely to go unnoticed? Yes; Ali Baba Palace is a very confined restaurant, so an upset child could be an issue.

Is there enough room for a stroller? Possibly; the dining area isn’t huge, and while you could squeeze a stroller between tables, it would most likely be uncomfortable.
