"This place is awesome! I went for dinner. The bread is cooked fresh every minute (crispy and chewy). The sides I had were awesome; spicy hummus was actually spicy! Cauliflower was good, and the spinach salad was nicely dressed. The lamb was cooked to order and came out med well, it was tasty and well seasoned. Probably could be 3 portions worth for a..."

"This place is WAY better than Nikko Nikko's, and their prices are lower. They give you huge servings of delicious food. I usually get 2 or 3 meals from it."

"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

"I was impressed by the fresh-baked pita bread here, and the amount of attention to decor, which is very cool. For the prices, I'd have preferred table service, but hey, whatever they are doing is working, because this place is great. I didn't try any of the meat dishes because so many of the veggie dishes looked appealing. We both got 4-item veggie combos..." 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

"Great mediterranean food! Fun/albeit hectic cafeteria style restaurant, order your dips/salads and meats from the window then find your own seat. It's BYOB, which is always a plus. Great for a quick meal and absolutely delicious. Get the lamb kebab if possible. Regular hummus, babaghanoush and fattoush salads are great sides, and the stone-oven baked pita ar..." 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."

"Want to add some spice to your mundane work week? Go to Aladdin's! My coworkers and I were getting tired of standing by the microwave everyday so we decided to go Mediterranean. The lunch special is 10 dollars and boy, do you get a lot of food! You get a choice of the meat they have and three sides. There are several options both for vegetarians and non-veg..." Read more

"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."

"Take a ride on a magic carpet and visit Aladdin. It's like Luby's (go through a line and pick out what you want) but Mediterranean Food, and we're talking superior quality mediterranean food. So many options of veggie dishes, meat, daily specials and everything in between. The hummus and baba g'noush are fantastic coupled with the pita chips and bread...." Read more

"Their food is a good expression of various Mediterranean dishes laid out cafeteria style. A newcomer could possibly have a hard time knowing what was what but on my first visit I just made sure to ask people to my left and right. Also,I picked my server's brain having them walk me through what the green stuff was and what went best with that thing. You'll f..." Read more

"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

"Detroit doesn't have a lot left going for it. But it does have the biggest Arab and Muslim population in the United States. And that fact alone has ruined me. Arabic food in Detroit / Dearborn is above and beyond anywhere else. For me it was always two things -- the hummus and pita. In Detroit, the hummus is heavier in tahini making it creamier than most...." 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

We usually share the 4 sides platter with an order of pita bread, because the portions are pretty big. The staff have always been really nice and will explain the different dishes..." 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 really like the food here! The ordering process can be a bit confusing the first time you come. You have to go up and ask them for what you want. I am not a big fan of hummus, but their spicy hummus is just amazing! I always get the sharwarma (sp?) with a side of their potatoes or this carrot and peas soup thing. The sharwarma is a bit on the small side, b..." Read more

Personally I do not like their pita as much as I like Fadi's. Somehow this one has a bit of sweetness... Lentil salad is a good choice for those who do not like meat. Falafel is not bad eith..."
