"Pretty good food, huge portions! Maybe a little heavy on the garlic, but still very good overall! Fresh yummy papaya and pineapple juice was great."

"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

"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

"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 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

"Mediterranean in the heart of Montrose, I loved this place. Went in for dinner and chose the veggie/ lamb food options from the counter with the combo entree option. Entree, 2 sides and bread. The place isnt fancy looking bit for the price and the taste, its a great option"

"Love this place! The food is fresh, healthy, and tastes amazing. The flavors are great, and I have never been disappointed with any of the salads or meat that I have eaten there. Don't forget to try their fresh Aguas Fresca style juice. The only reason I am docking a star is because the parking situation is a nightmare. They had a handful of parking spots..." Read more

"Cafeteria style ordering, get in line and pick your grub. Food wasn't bad good quality for the price. Ordered the chicken with saffron rice - good, tabouleh - adequate , grape leaves with rice - interesting flavor, regular hummus - good, pita bread - a little too fluffy but good flavor. Would definitely eat here again if in the neighborhood."

"I loved my experience at Aladdin. Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, the food is truly the star. I'm from the Middle East, and was very impressed with not only the favors of the food, but also the offerings - there were menu items here that my grandmother used to make! I got the Lamb Meatballs with tabbouleh, stuffed grape leaves, hummus and the vermic..." Read more

"I freaking love places like this - the buffet/cafeteria style Mediterranean place that offers a TON of food at a reasonable price. Aladdin is pretty similar to its competitors, except for... It's pita bread. Wow, was I impressed by the pita bread! Soft and fluffy with just a hint of sweetness, this was the first time I visited a restaurant like this where I..." Read more

"This is cafeteria style Mediterranean food, and it is really good! I wish they had labels on everything. I feel bad holding up the line to ask what everything is so I can make an informed decision. Also the line has lots of side dishes but you can only get 3 (For the usual combo of one meat - 3 sides, anyway). So take your time and look to see what they have..." Read more

"I was very impressed! In general, I really like this cuisine, but tend to think it needs sauce to be truly enjoyable. Not Aladdin! Everything was so flavorful and the meat wasn't dry at all! You order cafeteria style and get to choose your mix of items. Portions are HUGE and there are tons of vegetarian options. I was still full the next morning and my fridg..." Read more

"It was my first Mediterranean restaurant I visited after coming to states. After then I have visited 3 times. Right from the soft and fresh pita bread to different selection of meat this place is worth to visit. The onion hummus is my favorite. I prefer to have a brunch on weekends so that i can eat that big plate at one go. Apart from food the people are ve..." Read more

"I keep thinking about what keeps me coming back here. It has to be the home-cooked feel of the food. Now, of course this isn't the food that I or probably even you had growing up but there is just an undeniable feel of comfort and heartiness that smacks of down home cooking. The staff are always exceedingly cheerful, the food more than generous to the point..." Read more

Lamb gyro is a bit dry and did not taste very fresh or juicy as other places. Was extremely disappointed and wished I would've stuck to my usual. The meatballs, lamb shank,..." Read more
