"Everything here is very fresh, BBQ corn and the baba ghanough are stand outs for me. Gigantic portions and BYOB. You can't beat this place! I'm not sure of the gentleman's name that normally helps my wife and I but he is awesome and I applaud him!"

"Great food for a cheap price! Oh my, we left stuffed! I can sorta compare the taste to Fadi's but a lot less expensive. Not as nice inside but the neighborhood is great. Will definitely bring my hubby here."

"Awesome!! Food was fantastic. My husband and I have been back twice in 2 weeks b/c we had such a great experience. The gentleman behind the counter was very kind, and helpful in explaining the different options of food. Its cafeteria style which concerned me at first but everything is so fresh and the display of the food is done so well, you just want to..." Read more

"I agree completely with Gene L. I'm never going over to Niko Niko's again (except to use free coupons!). This place is a better deal and has better food and less crowds and faster and better service and smells better. I've gotten the Ultimate Shwarma 3x in the past week. The sides I've tried have all been good. The breaded mashed potatoes are unique and re..." Read more

"Delicious! Great pita bread, spicy hummus, and freshly made juices. Selected the 4 vegetarian sides for $9.99 but couldn't even finish it. Took a doggie bag home. Definitely recommend if you're looking to eat Mediterranean cuisine."

"I'm obsessed with this place. Never thought I'd be with a buffet-style restaurant - Aladdin's is particularly worthy of respect because despite everything being out on a buffet, it still tastes great. Everything I've tried here is AMAZING. I have to give a shout-out in particular to the lamb shank platter though. The fall-off-the-bone meat and the delicious..." Read more

"Oh Aladdin, take me away on a magic carpet ride. It is indeed a whole new world. Why haven't I ever been here? Everything was amazing. The best pita. The best mashed potato ball. The best hummus (spicy!!). Serious, serious good eats. The portions were huge. My friend got the vegan sampler, and there was enough food for at least 3 people. She got..." Read more

"Packed dining room, four big groups of 10+ taking up all the tables and lingering around even though they were finished with their meal, and all other seats taken. Manager and his staff did great job helping clear a table for us, well done! Great food too! Will be back soon, keep up the good work."

"See Nick K.'s review. I live right around the corner. Unfortunately for me, I am a student who doesn't work very much which equates to "rarely" going out to eat. Aladdin's has many choices of salads and warm dishes. It is unbelievable! If you live in the 610 or 10 minutes outside of Montrose, come here in the next week. It's that good. I ordered the be..."

"Where do I begin? At the great food, enormous spread, huge proportions, family hospitality, or awesome price? Having visited the Mediterranean Islands this past summer, I've experienced authentic Mediterranean cuisine, and let me tell ya, Aladdin's is authentic! So far, I've had their chicken kabobs, chicken schwarma, spicy hummus, eggplant pesto, squash..." Read more

"Ali, Ali, Ali.......Where do I begin? As a Chicago Restaurateur, I must say that I am disappointed in myself for breaking my number 1 cardinal rule when I am in a new city - I NEVER eat at the same restaurant more than once, because I do not know the lay of the land and there are so many restaurants to explore. Eventually, I identify my favorites and begin..." Read more

"I gave this place 5 stars because the food is excellent, the service is wonderful, and you definitely get your money's worth. You can pick an entree and 3 sides for about $11 (depending on the entree) and it is a lot of food. They let you sample any of the sides before you pick them, and the staff is very helpful when you ask questions or for their suggest..." Read more

"My husband and I love Aladdin's we are here on average once a week. There is always a different variety of meats and veggies to choose from but most importantly everything is always fresh and so good! I always have to have the fried cauliflower, Lebanese mashed potato and shish tawook (chicken kabab)! (This place beats Fadis by a mile when it comes to authe..." Read more

"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."

"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

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

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

"I have been frequenting Aladdin's for over half a decade, and it's always a pleasure to enjoy fresh food prepared by Ali and his ever-friendly staff. It is my favorite place to find "Mediterranean" cuisine in Houston, and there's a reason that Lebanese folks are known for being stellar cooks throughout the world. Want a shawarma or kebab? Aladdin's are..." Read more
