"I had been here a number of times, but not in the last three years. I returned today. The naan bread and hummus are fabulous. There is a variety of hummus flavors to try. The naan is freshly baked in a brick oven. I had three sides and a meat for $11.99. Great value for a fully loaded plate. My meat dish was a little tasteless. Therefore, I deducted one star..."

"I came to Aladdin's on a Friday around lunchtime. I was pleasantly surprised since I drive past this place all the time because it doesn't look like much from the outside. Anyway, I order the chicken sharwma, cucumber salad, and fried potato cake. All very good (cucumber salad needed a little salt). They also have juice, which is awesome! I tried hal..." Read more

"Huge portions seem to be the norm at a number of the Mediterranean restaurants I've been to in Houston and Aladdin's is no different. I had the grilled chicken only because they were closing the restaurant early for a catering event so they refused to cook any more kabobs... Was a little upset about that and probably why I'm dinging them down to 3 stars. The..." Read more

"We came in for a late Sunday lunch yesterday. I had read a few yelp reviews and was eager to try it out. If you have been to Fadi's this is a similar concept except much smaller. So this is the cafeteria line like ordering system with a list meat options on a dry erase board. We ordered 1 meat (Lamb Kabob and Chicken Shawarma) and 3 sides which I asked to..." Read more

"This place is good, but parking is horrendous! I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like I'm cursed by the parking gods. There is a small parking lot right behind the restaurant, but I sure can't ever find any spots... I drive around and around to no avail until I park about 3 blocks down in a neighborhood. I'm terrible.. When you walk in, you grab a..." Read more

"The place is not fancy, but the Mediterranean food is good... I had the lamb and it was very tasty... Also, the beef was not bad either... The natural juices are great!! I think that's the best of the menu... Everything else was ok..."

"I'm conflicted because Aladdin's has the best pita breads ever, but I am not a big fan of anything else besides that. The parking is difficult. They have a small private lot that is of no help since it is full most of the time. The restaurant itself is cramped and crowded; tables are packed so closely together and it gets super loud inside. Unfortunately, th..." Read more

"Aladdin's food is decent, but nothing special to talk about. Located right off Montrose and Westheimer, they have a small parking lot located right next to the restaurant. However if it's full, they also have an additional parking lot on California street. The food is served cafeteria style so I'm not a fan of some of the food (ex: salad already mixed with t..."

"Oh Aladdin, I really wanted to like you from all the raving yelp reviews, but...you just don't cut it for me. My boyfriend and I have been here twice, and the first time was pretty much a disaster. It was his first time at a Mediterranean restaurant, and we weren't sure what to order, so we hesitated a bit at the counter. Instead of recommending sides and ex..." Read more

"The problem with hanging out with guy-friends is that they are ALWAYS hungry. Seriously, they reserve a time for second dinner every evening, which is when I made my journey to Aladdin Mediterranean Cuisine. Being sleight of frame, my metabolism does not allow for second dinners, so I was not particularly hungry when I entered the establishment. Ordering is..." Read more

"Into Aladdin so far, but I definitely need to try more things here before bumping them up to four stars. My stomach wasn't feeling great that week, so I stuck to the classic hummus and a few falafels. The falafels are certainly the best I've had in town, but the hummus wasn't as good as Niko Niko's. The bread was crazy-amazing! I want to try their other humm..." Read more

"Bad news first. The reason I had to give 3 stars is solely to the fact the restaurant isn't handicapped accessible . No parking spaces , a lot of walking and slippery floors when wet . I worked pretty hard for my lunch ! The food , service , and prices were great ! The cafeteria style service was novel to me . the lady behind the counter jumped in and serv..." Read more

"The Chicken Shawarma was a little too dry but the chicken kabob was yummy! Their mashed potato ball and spinach salad was delicious, loved the freshly baked pita bread!"

"Ok Houston Yelpers, so far you are 0 for 2 on Mediterranean restaurants for me. The food here is very astringent. Everything I had was just very sour and acidic. It was overpowering to me. Aladdin does manage to have incredible bread though. They bake it inside the restaurant and it does make a huge difference. This place is also really cheap. I'm going..." Read more

"The food is classic mediterranean, but nothing special. The location is very central, right off Montrose and they do have their own parking lot, but it can get full. The food is served cafeteria style, so ask for help when ordering if you've never been before. They have specials with a meat and three sides that's affordable. Also they offer free pita chips..."

"Went there with my family and the ordering process is very confusing as there as is a very vague menu on the wall. It's cafeteria style...you tell them what you want without having an idea what the total price is. The food was average and I'm from the middle east and I know this kind of food well. The chicken shawarma was good but nothing special. Go to Phoe..." Read more

"As they serve you cafeteria style you go up, look at the menu and tell them what you want. I decided to get hummus, a cucumber salad, mashed potato ball and a lamb gyro. I also tried the seasoned potatoes, grilled vegetables, pasta and had some fresh made papaya pineapple strawberry juice. My favorite side dish had to be the mashed potato ball loved the chee..."

"Aladdin's is good. I always overestimate when I go to cafeteria style places and order too much so I ordered a falafel plate, a side of the fried potatoes and a chocolate-covered piece of pastry, natch. It was a lot of food but I was a bit startled to see the total at $17. I can't remember now if the drink was included or not. The best part of the meal was..." Read more

"Stopped in for lunch on Sunday. Here's the system: Grab a tray, utensils, etc.. and head to the counter. There you will be greeted with fresh baked pita, and if it's your first time they'll explain how it works. If you order from the counter, you pick 1 main dish + 3 sides from the pre-made options. If that's not your style, you can have them make you a fala..." Read more

"This is a pretty solid Mediterranean place - I had the falafel sandwich and a side of the spicy hummus. You also get some pita bread, which they'll refill for free. Delicious! The spicy hummus was nice - just the right amount of spicy, along with some paprika and olive oil. The falafel wrap was also good - the falafel was fresh and had the good balance betw..." Read more

"More authentic then Niko Nikos across the street, but it's not in the same class, unfortunately. The food is good, not great, but the decor is bad and everything looks really cheap. The parking lot only has enough room for ~10 cars and is awkwardly positioned relative to Montrose, so it can be hard to get in and out."

"I was excited to go to this place. Very similar to Fadi's where they have cafeteria style. Watch out for the amount of side dishes you get as the price incrementally goes up and the staff will try to get you to get the most expensive combo. The food itself was fine but a bit greasy for my tastes. I got the lamb shanks and rice with eggplant and a feta past..." Read more

"Assembly line style. Chose three sides and one meat. Say yes to: Red Snapper (this is seriously best fish ever) Pitas (freshly baked) Dips (nice variety) Salad Say no to: Dolma (large, not flavored well) Curry rice (meh, so-so, mainly a filler) Chicken meatballs (too similar to biscuits and gravy)"
