"The food is delicious and fresh. I've eaten Mediterranean food all over the place and this comes close to the top of the list. Definitely the best in Houston. Also, the staff is very friendly and helpful and will explain what items are to anyone who is overwhelmed with the selection."

"I LOVE Aladdin. Their babaganouj (not even sure how to spell it) is fantasitc and their bread is excellent. They have a number of healthy, fresh dishes with a wide variety of vegetables (great if you are vegetarian or just watching what you eat) and the chicken schwarma is also a great staple. They tend to put to go food in foam cartons, which makes it ha..." Read more

"I really love this place. The food is fresh and a feast for the eyes. The chicken shawarma and the lamb shank are two of my family's favorites. It is sometimes difficult to find shawarma that isn't dried out or over cooked. Aladdin manages to serve a deliciously seasoned, very moist version. The lamb shank is also well seasoned, fall-off-the-bone tender and..." Read more

"So, it's like Piccadilly for Greek food (which can be a little confusing if you've never been here before.) I think that it might be beneficial to add some signage to the dishes and I think that would help things out a bit. That being said, so far this is my hands down favorite Mediterranean food in HTX! Sure, there's the big guy across the street, but th..." Read more

"Awesome food. It's cafeteria style with tons of veg/meat options. If I was a vegetarian or paleo this would be an exremely easy place to eat, and eat healthy (I have taken dates here that were either of those). They have fresh baked pita, and fresh squeezed juice. Its about $10 for a plate and I always get two meals out of it, which I think is an amazi..." Read more

"I think this is the BEST Mediterranean food in town, hands down! I've been going here since they opened and have been a regular customer for years. I used to be a regular at other places before Aladdin opened years ago and now can't go back. The food here is much more flavorful and not greasy like some other restaurants focusing on the same cuisine in town..." Read more

"I came to Aladdin's yday based on the reviews and I am happy I did. The staff and owner are very kind and the food is amazing. I had the Falafel dish with spicy hummus, cucumber salad and quite possibly the best pita bread I've ever had! As I awaited the arrival of the Falafel, I quickly fell in love with the hummus and pita and soon concluded I could quite..." Read more

"Go ahead and shame me: I've only just had Aladdin for the first time *ever*. I don't know how I've driven by it a time or two (dozen) and not been compelled to try it, but I have sworn to rectify this by eating here many, many more times in the future. The pita bread alone is worth the trek. OH! the warm fuzzies I feel sitting there eating a basket of hot,..." Read more

"Aladdin's is amazingly delicious! I highly recommend the vegan platter, chicken kabob, or the lamb. Hands down, this place has the best pita bread in town! Juices are fresh and tasty. The desserts are out of this world too! You really can't go wrong at this place. Great portions with great prices, and I just have to mention the awesome staff that always gree..." Read more

"Been going to aladdin since 2005 when it was first introduced to me. The owner is about as awesome as it gets. Very good person who cares about his business and more-so his customers. The food is always well made and he's usually working on new recipes, they change up the menu a bit every so often so if you eat every day you won't get bored although their st..." Read more

"First off... I think these one star reviews for Aladdin are bs. Who's eating Mediterranean at 9:45 in the morning!?! Whatever, who am I to judge. I'll instead tell you why you should go to Aladdin! 1. Exceptionally friendly staff. A rarity these days. 2. Great & Authentic Mediterranean food. Trust me, I've had my share. 3. Pita bread to die for. Ye..." Read more

"My go-to for falafel--best falafel in town. The bread is OMG amazing. Try the potato ball things, the cashew rice, the cauliflower dish, tabbouleh, chicken curry. Heck, everything there is good. Nice folks work there too. Tip them."

"Wow...I feel so ashamed I've never experienced this place until now! As David Y. mentioned, it's hard to see how Niko Niko's has so much business with this place just across the street. Not that I don't like Niko Niko's, but just for the price of a couple bucks more I can go do Aladdin for a ridiculously amazing meal. This is some of the best Mediterranea..." Read more

"We basically live here. I love the simple, home-cooked quality of this restaurant and we are huge fans. It's a nice change from the McGreek food that's around town. The owner is really hands-on and awesome to his customers. We are in there often, and they put up with our sometimes misbehaving toddler while she downs a bucket of the excellent hummus and pit..."

"I have this deep love affair with Mediterranean food. Probably because so much of it is vegan or veggie friendly, so I know that I'll have a lot of options. The parking for this location is a little weird, but certainly not bad. Even on busy nights I've been able to find a space. The only thing I've ever gotten here is the Vegan sampler. Even before I wen..." Read more

"This place is worth the visit for the oven-fresh pita alone. You'll read over and over again in the reviews about the spicy hummus. It's for a good reason - that shiz is delicious. The cafeteria style setup can be a little confusing, and the choices overwhelming. If you are plagued by indecision like me, stick to the menu. I had a falafel pita and could not..." Read more

"Amazing. All the dishes are incredibly delicious and fresh, and they are displayed so you can see what you're getting. Pita is freshly baked in a fired brick oven. Portions and variety are more than generous and reasonably priced. Service is the awesome. The owner is always at the front helping out, and he is one of the nicest people I've ever met. If you we..." Read more

"This is my new favorite place! So yummy! I haven't been to Fadis but I have been to similar Mediterranean buffet type places and they cannot even compare. I usually get 2 or 3 veggies and the lamb gyro meat and it is always more than enough food! My favorite thing lately here is that it is SO easy to go low carb (avoid hummus and pita) and the veggies are al..." Read more

"Bam. I thought this was a Fadi's clone but I actually like it a lot better. Fadi's is much bigger and more crowded, so there should be more turnover/fresher food - but I definitely like Aladdin's cleanliness, smaller space, and fresher flavors more. I had a chicken shawarma / beef shawarma combo plate with three sides. The meats were solid but the sides ar..." Read more

"Oh, Aladdin! How I love thee! The beef shawarma wrap here is the greatest thing in this world. Hands down. Don't argue with me. I know what I'm talking about. I like being able to walk down the line and take everything in. The service here is always polite and prompt. It's hard for me to give a broad food review because I found my ultimate love on..."

"Their bread is fresh, soft and tasty. Lots of great options in side dishes including cashew rice, grilled veggies, lentil and spicy hummus. I always order their lamb gyro as my main dish so I'm not sure how their other dishes fare."
