"Great lamb shank and hummus. Very similar to Fadi's. Exterior design adds some unique touch. Not a fan of the indoor ambience though."

"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

"Really good. My friend took me here. I played it safe and got a pot roast dish, but I tried his gyro...AMAZING! I definitely need to go back to have a gyro to myself! The hummus and pitas are super fresh. They are constantly baking them all day long. A lot of food for a very reasonable price, especially for how great everything tastes!"

"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."

"This place is pretty good for Mediterranean style food. I know I am no expert when to it comes this kind of food, but I do know good from bad. It's like a little cafe and they lay out all the food there for you to choose. With veggie plate you can choose 4 veggies for 9.99 or sth. Other yelpers kept talking about the spicy hummus so I tried it. Honestly it..." Read more

"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

"I have a tendency to look past places close by, because I always assume I'll wander in eventually. That tendency really let me down with this one, because now that I've had some of what Aladdin has to offer, I realize I've been really missing out. They've got sides as far as the eye can see and even offer tubs of take home garlic dip for those who, like me..." Read more

"Aladdin's is pretty awesome. I go here a couple times a month. The food is good, portions are large, and the price is cheap. I can usually get two meals out of 1 plate. Some of my favorites include the curry chicken, brisket, green beens, and flash-fried cauliflower. I usually pick it up to go but don't mind dining in, though the atmosphere is nothing s..."

"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

"Food here is great and I agree with other reviewers. I will definitely be coming back. However, my only qualm, and I don't think they do it on purpose, is lack of clear prices on the menu. Essentially, you end up getting charged $1 here and there for what you thought was included with your meal. So I recommend being very clear about what you want, especially..." 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

"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
