"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

"This place is a great for lunch. My husband and I often stop by when we are in Houston. I really enjoy the variety of food Aladdin has to offer, especially the vegetarian variety! 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

"I like the food overall and the location is convenient (even though parking is not the best). Layout inside needs a little improvement. Food quality has been consistent. 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..."

"Confusing experience with disappointing, lacklustre food. Maybe regular customers have a better time but I wish I'd gone someplace better. After talking up mediterranean food so much for my family, I was embarrassed that this was their first taste of the cuisine. I wouldn't give this place a second shot. SERVICE: 1 star. No explanation for newcomers of how..." Read more

"This was a great place for quality and affordable Mediterranean food. The three sides and one meat plate was only $10.99, but it was more food than I could eat. The restaurant also had a very friendly waitstaff. All around a good quick meal. Check it out!"

"I love the concept of cafeteria style Mediterranean food. The options can be a bit overwhelming (as everything screams "try me, I'm delicious") but the staff is eager to share options and delve into your personal tastes to help you make life altering decisions such as "spicy hummus or baba ganoush?". Everything was fresh and obviously nothing had been p..." Read more

"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

"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

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

"Following the advice of fellow Yelpers, I decided to eschew my usual trip to Niko Niko's to get my schwarma craving fix, and headed to Aladdin's instead. As a lover of fast, fresh Mediterranean (I used to regularly a place called Zorba's in DC that has a similar set up to Aladdin), I really wanted to love this place. Maybe it was my timing (Sunday around 5..." Read more
