Ludhiana
A legacy six decades
in the making
Baba Chicken’s journey began in 1962 in Ludhiana, Punjab, where the Baba family built a legacy around authentic Punjabi flavors and time-honored recipes. That name became a legend across the region — known above all for its rich, unforgettable Butter Chicken.
Today, Baba's Resto & Bar brings those original recipes to Ashburn, Virginia — the true taste of Punjab, served to your table for the very first time in the USA.

The first flame — 'BABA Chicken'
Baba Chicken started in 1962 when S. Himmat Singh, lovingly called Baba Ji, opened a small dhaba serving authentic Punjabi food. His son, Mr. Kanwaljit Singh, introduced popular dishes like Fish Fry and Spinach Corn Roll, leading to the first Baba Restaurant in 1991. Known for its signature Baba Butter Chicken and secret magic masalas, Baba Chicken has now expanded to Chandigarh, bringing its rich legacy and flavors to more food lovers.
A household name in Punjab
Today, Baba Chicken is a celebrated name in Punjabi cuisine, loved for its authentic flavors and rich heritage. From its humble beginnings in 1962, the brand has grown while staying true to its traditions.
