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

"Still going here once or twice a month because I know what to expect - the quality is always great. Ali knows how to run an eatery."

"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!"

"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

"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..."

"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

"I've seen this restaurant on Montrose for some time now always thinking I would like to try this place. I stopped in on a Wednesday at around 11:15 am. There were a few people in the restaurant already. The food is served cafeteria style, I decided to try the 1 meat and 3 sides platter since it was the same as the 1 meat and 2 sides platter today, $9.99...." Read more

"I thought it was really good and much more food than you get across the street at the more famous Niko Niko's. Food is really pretty good and reasonably priced for what you get."

"I love this place. Huge portions, fresh food, healthy options, prices are very reasonable, and the staff is lovely. It's a locally owned place too which is a plus. Their hummus is delicious as are the salads and grilled veggies. I've been told the lamb shank is amazing though I've never tried it. I almost always get the chicken kebab."

"If you have ever been to Fadi's this place is very similar. Honestly, if you just sat inside without knowing which one you were in you probably couldn't tell the difference. And for Aladdin, that is a good thing. As I LOVE fadi's. I came here to have dinner with a friend recently after work. You can order combos, for my meat I had the gyro, as far as..." Read more

"I drove by this place several times and wondered what it was like inside. I'm usually afraid to try new places by myself. So the other night a friend recommended I try it since I was driving around Montrose looking for food . Well I'm glad I did. Very friendly atmosphere for starters. And I like how they had every thing up front and personal for you to see..." Read more

"A coworker introduced me to this place and I've been a huge fan ever since. Very small shared parking lot. Casual. I love the variety that this place has to offer and that you can see everything. I always walk along the glass and survey to see if there's anything new I want to try. Whoever is waiting on you is always nice enough to explain what everythi..." Read more

"The food is always fresh and good. What else can I say? Some may think the food is pricy, but I usually can't eat all the food they give you so you get a lot for your money. For those on the prowl for other middle-eastern/greek food in the neighborhood, there is Niko Niko, but I prefer Aladdin every time."

"I've been on a gyro kick so decided to hit up Niko Niko again. But after circling the parking lot twice, I decided it wasn't worth the hassle. Just across the street was Aladdin and I was extremely glad I got to try this place. Prices are reasonable and portions were huge. 1 meat w/ 3 sides plus drink was $12.43 and well worth it. The place has a "mar..." Read more

"Saturday 05/14 Rode up here on our bikes and had a late late lunch on their patio around 6pm. Staff was extremely friendly. Setup is kinda like Fadi's--order first, pay, and they'll bring out the food. Meat w/ 2 sides-$9.49. Ground beef kebab w/ spaghetti and spinach salad Sandwich w/ 1 side-$7.99 Beef steak kebab w/ cashew rice and cranberries? Not sure...." Read more

The staffs are all so nice and attentive !!!! :) And the pita bread is SO delicious. however, i don't think i am a fan of mediterranean food; i had the chicken kabob, it tasted decent. The price is very reasonable. $10 for a basket of free..." Read more

"I've been driving pass this restaurant for so long and always thought it was some dinky place on the corner of Montrose and Westheimer, but when you go in, you get a sense of how clean and fresh the food and eating area is. You'll have trouble figuring out what you want to eat since there's so many good choices. They are experts are cooking the meats just ri..." Read more

"Food is full of flavor and it's filling. A bit pricey but you get a lot and they have cool juices too that are fresh squeezed. Only negative is the parking which can be a pain."

"of all the Mediterranean options in montrose, a winner emerges! I tried the falafel sandwich and it was very tasty. The falafel itself wasn't too dry, and the sandwich was complimented nicely with pickles and just the right amount lettuce/tomato. very tasty stuff!"

"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
