We are a gastropub specializing in Cuban and Peruvian flavors. While still adhering to age old family recipes, we strive to be innovative and open minded, just as our ancestors were when these flavors were first imagined. Here at BaBaLoo, we want to take on this multicultural challenge by providing the most authentic dining experience that Lake Havasu City and Palm Desert have to offer. Cuba and Peru are rich in history, and nothing tells that tale better than their diverse flavor combinations. We take ideas from cuisines around the world; Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, Caribbean, and African flavors have heavily influenced Cuban and Peruvian food throughout history.

I can’t recall how many friends I have referred to Larkspur for their French onion soup with short rib, which is/was my favorite thing in the valley. You can’t imagine how sad we were to plan a get together recently, just to hear it was no longer on the menu. The rest of the menu is somewhat small, but we still managed to have a good dinner. The servers are fabulous, the ambiance is beautiful and fun and the music was awesome. Please bring back the soup.. it was delicious and different.

We had a lovely dinner at Shorebird. The menu is varied and has something for everyone, from sushi to sandwiches, to fish dishes and ribeye steaks. Everything was yummy! Our servers were very helpful and not pushy. We’ll go back.
