"Great spot! At first you'll think its another random buffet but it is SO much more. The food is fresh and delicious. Easy to get food that fits any type of diet (vegan, paleo, whatever). Food is fresh and bread is baked right on the spot! Portion sizes are generous so I always have some to bring home for the next day. Make sure to try the lamb-- it is amazin..." Read more

"Love all the options that Aladdin's has to offer. Couldn't tell you the thousands of time that I have passed this place and always said that I wanted to try it because I knew it had rave reviews (but their original sign always looked a little 'sketch" to me so I was glad when they updated it LoL. My parents were in town visiting and always leave it up to me..." Read more

"Really great food, love the hummus and fried potato balls. They give you a ton of food too, I couldn't eat it all. Everyone was really friendly. Will definitely go again."

"Huge portions of great food. Their signature meal is one meat and three sides, like a Southern "meat and 3", which goes for $13."

"The price is right, the taste is not. I ordered meat and three sides. Chicken kabobs with rice, squash and hummus. Let's start with the pita, it's really sweet. I've never had sweet pita before and I can't say I'm a fan. The rice and vegetables tasted like pickle juice was all over them. The chicken was dry. This place has a lot of great reviews so it may ju..." Read more

"assembly-line style of sensational Lebanese food. I had the hummus, fried cauliflower, falafel, chicken, stuffed grape leaves and baklava. Not super cheap but my meal always ends up being dinner plus lunch the next day!"

"Pretty much as good as it gets for Mediterranean food! I don't typically like Mediterranean cuisine, but Aladdin pulled a genie on me and made me change my mind. i got the lamb shank and it was fall-off-the-bone good. The cauliflower was pretty interesting. It didn't taste much like cauliflower but it was good nonetheless. I tried my friend's lamb stew and..." Read more

"Aladdin was a blessing at a time in my life that I was learning to eat better - meaning, learning to eat vegetables. Every time I visited, it was a new flavor and take on vegetables I had never imagined. This helped me on my journey to wellness and eating to be healed! I love the staff. They are efficient, friendly, and on point. The owner, Ali, is such a..." Read more

"This is a great Mediterranean restaurant. Every meal is served with pita and hummus, and you have the option of adding various sides and meats as well as made to order meats (kabobs). The tabouli is awesome and the chicken kabobs come with a delicious garlic sauce."

"Remember those school days, standing in the lunch line- tray in hand- this is Aladdin Mediterranean. Lots of hustle and bustle, the staff was busy, but friendly to us new comers that didn't know what the deal was. The lady behind the assortment of foods explained that you can four sides (very big servings) or, get two sides and a meat (lamb, chicken- baked o..." Read more

"I came here for my coworkers several months ago, and I was so surprised by this place! I never thought twice about it when I drive past--but now I always have to pull in. Their buffet is incredible. I've tried almost everything now, and there isn't a single thing that I don't like. It's always very quick to get through, and the price can't be beat."

"Favorite restaurant in Houston hands down. I've been here a lot- it's my favorite place to eat before a marathon or big race to carb load but still eat healthy. There are so many choices. My boyfriend love to BYOB here and bring wine. I could come here everyday. Chicken kabobs are bomb."

"I love Aladdin's food. It's good, with large portions, friendly people, and a decent assortment of choices with reasonable prices and fast service. I don't find the atmosphere inside very inviting or comfortable, so I usually take my food to go. Also, parking is not the easiest, but Houston will be Houston."

"The place is cute and well made. They have an outside patio so it was good to eat there as it wasn't too hot that day. The quantity of the sides was amazing and there was a lot of variety too! But the quantity of the entree wasn't much for the price. Loved their chick pea salad and corn! Te shawarma wrap was okay! Overall, would definitely go again"

"Great food in a nice area. The Mediterranean food is definitely top notch here. They serve cafeteria style similar to my other go to Mediterranean restaurant, Fadi's. The food is well seasoned and the portions are generous. The tabbouleh and lamb stew are two of my favorites here. Definitely give them a try. Same deal as Fadi's though, try not to eat their..."

"I've been to places like Fadi's and Phonecia. This place tops them by far, start out with 2 cute little naan breads, the quality just felt better. For around $12-13 i felt i got my moneys worth. I went with corn on the cob (very well prepared and seasoned), I had some roasted eggplant that came over rice w/o extra charge, and I also got the grilled veggies...." Read more

"Generous portions with staff patient enough to explain the options. (Quality plus Quantity) by Price ratio is excellent for modest palates. Water Melon juice is the pleasant surprise. If you need Mediterranean food and are passing by the neighborhood do give this place a weighty consideration. As others have noted, there is reserved parking a block north on..." Read more

"Always looking for good Mediterranean food, especially being new to the area! This restaurant is set up similar to a buffet. The employees are very friendly & the food is very, very fresh! The lamb is the best lamb I have had in over a year of traveling! I would recommend to any Mediterranean food lovers!"
