There was barely any meat on the steak and cheese sub and they also skimped on the fries. We were excited to try this place from the reviews and the fact that it's a local joint. It's very disappointing when you can have a better sub at a fast food chain and for cheaper. We won't be back and do not recommend Aden Pizza. read more

This place used to be a reliable takeout place but they're having some serious issues. Wrong orders, really late deliveries, and lots of attitude from the management about it. There are better places. read more

I have done carry-out from here many times over the years but mostly pizza. The pizzas are excellent, especially the white pizzas. There are only couple little tables inside and couple of tables outside during the warmer month. The staff is very friendly. For this visit, I got the Doner pita sandwich and Greek salad with Doner. Both were very tasty. Definitely a place that we would visit again. read more

Amazing food, nice workers that have unbelievable customer service, they make everything feel welcoming and all.

The food is great. I love the "Doner kebab" sandwich, or "shawarma". It is at a good price and fries and yogurt sauce are included with it. The yogurt on the side. I usually eat at Aden Pizza, but it is in a to-go box. I like the painting on the wall of Aden Pizza. It is in the interior. It is of the owners home town or families home town in Tunisia. The food is mostly Turkish, and really good. Tunisia is in North Africa. The owner speaks 10 languages he once told me. The food is paid for at the front end and comes out quick and hot. read more

we recently tried a new pizza spot to us in Bethesda: Aden Pizza . While I usually am an avid yelp searcher when it comes to trying new places, we actually received a paper menu in our mailbox about this restaurant and decided to give it a shot. I usually throw these away but decided to keep it for future takeout purposes. Not only is this a place to get pizza, it also serves up TURKISH DISHES! We only tried their pizza but they make various pide, kofte, kebabs, baklava, and other Turkish dishes. Our "favorites" were the Buffalo Chicken Pizza (not overly Buffalo-y and a winner in our book!) and the mozzarella sticks. The supreme pizza was good but not sure we would get that one again. Caesar salad was average, and we thought the croutons were a bit dry. DINNER Buffalo Chicken Pizza Supreme Pizza Mozzarella Sticks Fries Caesar salad read more

Whadya call pizza with ground beef and no cheese or tomato sauce? It's a Lahmacun and it is excellent! U can even top it with onions or salad. Been here a number of times and found the food incredible or eh. The lahmacun is incredible! The pide is great. Not a great place to enjoy incredible food. The outside seats work well in Spring or summer. Winter keeps you inside in less than comfortable surroundings. Would also let you know that the 11 am open time is when tHey get there, not when they are ready. But, wanna watch a soccer game and eat well. This is the place. Try the lunch specials. read more

When we first moved to Bethesda we were on a kick to try as many unique restaurants as we could. This plan was foiled once we stumbled upon Aden Pizza. Night after night we found ourselves stating "let's order Aden again". My wife and I got hooked on their steak and cheese subs. The fries that come with it take it over the top. Being that my wife only eats halal meat she thought she had died and went to heaven. Even the beef pepperoni was halal! We usually do carry out but have used their personal delivery service as well. They are fast and friendly. The only downside is the restaurant itself can only seat 4-8 people. read more

Aden Pizza - Steak and Cheese Sub - Mediterranean Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

The food is delicious. The sucuk and cheese pide is excellent. Eating inside is tough because it is very small. The taste of the dishes is great, so recommended. read more

My falafel was overcooked and the pita was like cardboard in places. Service was prompt.

Called for delivery On Christmas day eve and immediately got through to an extremely pleasant knowledgeable and helpful Staffer. We ordered an extra large pizza with multiple toppings and a no cheese pizza for someone with a dairy allergy. Also three Mediterranean salads and an order of Dolmades The pizza was fabulous. Clearly freshly made dough wonderfully complex sauce, spicy pepperoni and fresh cut mushrooms The salad was fresh, crunchy, and a great balance of vegetables. The dolmades were wonderfully firm and expertly seasoned This will be our pizza place from now on. Thank you Aden's! read more

After seeing Creed & Concussion as part of our CHRISTmas family gathering, we all decided on trying Aden for a family dinner....what a great decision! I started on Yelp, then went to Eat/24 & then their website & found out that they offer a 20% discount for 1st time users via their App...downloaded & we were ready to order. Well, I had to make one phone call for a quick inquiry, got a holiday greeting, got my question answered, & then we ready to order. Mom - I went with the Mixed Meze Platter. It comes with Hummus, babaghannush (grilled eggplant, garlic, olive oil & tahnini mixture - I 86'd the yogurt), ezme (nice salad concoction of tomatoes onions, parsley, peppers & spices - yummy), sigara borek (deep fried dough with feta cheese - those were put in another container for my daughter), falafel & of course pita bread, which was grilled & seasoned with olive oil & garlic. & for the price of $11.95 you get a nice portion of each item, DELICIOUS! Son - Steak & Cheese Sub, with the basic grilled onions, peppers, lettuce, tomatoes & mayo...however, it was the biggest & Philly looking Steak & Cheese I have seen in a very long time. Of course, it came with a huge portion of french fries & condiments. Daughter - Chicken Kebab Wrap, with a very seasoned/marinated chicken (nice aroma to it), lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, tzatziki sauce & french fries. They both had Baklava that was prepared with light & flaky dough & the special filling of walnuts, pistachio & honey sugar syrup. Of course I asked if butter was used, they did. :-( I just enjoyed the dessert vicariously through them. This avenue of ordering in oppose to the original reservations of a hotel meal worked out perfectly as we got plenty of food for the dollar & was able to kick back, fellowship & play Monopoly until 1am! What a fantastic way to end this special day with La Familia of celebrating, exchanging gifts, watching movies & being overly full on good food. Happy Holidays! read more

Aden Pizza is sooo good and probably one of the best pizza's we have had!! We are so happy to have come across this gem because MD has limited halal options that actually taste good. We get the pepperoni beef and and veggie/chicken pizza, and they use the freshest ingredients on your pizza - a hit every single time! I also love their chicken Greek salad! The owner is also so nice and welcoming each time we pick up our order. We probably order Aden about 1-2 a month and highly recommend!! read more

The delivery guy called from downstairs. My phone was on silent and I missed he call. I saw that he texted me asking, "Do you still want your food?" I said yes, I do and apologized profusely for the missed call. He then said, "Well come downstairs then!" I responded saying that the concierge would allow him to come up to complete the delivery. He then said, no he wasn't coming up bc he's already been waiting long enough. I went downstairs to get my food and he asked, "Where's my tip?" I told him I wouldn't be tipping him because I didn't appreciate his rudeness over the phone. He then YELLED....FUCK YOU! This was in front of my neighbors and concierge. I didn't want to make a scene, so I ignored him. I guess he didn't like that and YELLED - FUCK YOU.....again!!! This is a DISGUSTING way to treat PAYING customers! A TIP IS OPTIONAL AND RESERVED FOR GOOD SERVICE!!!!! IT IS NEVER OWED!!!!!! I shouldn't be verbally chastised because I showed my disapproval of the service via my EXTRA tip on TOP of paying the full bill!! I don't OWE anyone any more than to pay my bill! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!! read more

This review is only for the lahmacun/lahmajun and pide. Both are excellent. The dough is crisp yet flexible at the same time on the lahmacun, and crisp and chewy on the pide. The toppings have fine flavor, although it's all about the dough for these two items, and both are very good. I would encourage the owners to use a spicy hot sujuk for the pide. Try the lahmacun, folks; it's not a substitute for pizza, it's its own category of dough smeared with very finely ground meat. read more

Was very pleasantly impressed with my Doner Shawarma and fries order. The pita meat was plentiful and wholesome, the bread was well toasted, fries were seasoned well and crunchy and the tzatziki yogurt tasted like real yogurt and served on the side ensured no soggy delivery. If you're looking for a quick bite with Halal, humanly prepared meat, I highway recommend this friendly staff delicious option. Can't wait to try their wings and pizzas as well! read more

Have ordered pizza and Mediterranean food from here 3 times. Always on time and the pizza is pretty decent. The falafel is also great. Reliable place near me, consistent and pretty good delivery/takeout quality food. Will be a customer again for sure read more

Good but not great. I have made an order at 9:22pm and received the order at 10:22pm. Excatly in an hour(!) What I have ordered were red lentil soup, iskender kebap and rice pudding. Lentil soup was good however iskender was sent to me in abundance of pide and tomatoe paste and little bit meat. In addition rice pudding was so starchy. I hope you guys will keep improving :) good luck! read more

Aden Pizza - No torice pudding again as of the taste. It is like remaining rice pilaf was mixed with milk and extravagant amounts of starch. - Mediterranean Near Me - Bethesda, Maryland

I was so excited to finally find a legit Turkish restaurant in the area ! My carry out order was packaged perfectly for a safe trip home, and the yogurtlu kebab was wonderful. The portion sizes were generous, and even better, they had asked me what time I'd be arriving so my food was made just minutes before I got there ensuring it would be hot when I got home. The service was kind and communicative, and I'm just so excited to try out more of their menu. Why 4 stars instead of 5? I've only been once so far and it was great food, but my standards for a 5 star are what's the best of my life kind of meals read more

Aden has become our go-to pizza spot after moving to the area. Their pizza is consistently good and any changes we make to the pizza are always done exactly the way we ask. Extra cheese...extra sauce...they're super generous with their orders and I love them for that! We've ordered amazing kabobs, falafel and wings now as well and are looking forward to slowly going through their whole menu to figure out our new favorites. Also, their store's delivery is super quick and convenient. We were just on the edge of their delivery zone and they make an exception for us every time after the online apps wouldn't approve the delivery. So kind of them! Definitely recommend! read more

Yum! This restaurant cooks up some amazing pizza AND they have other great options as well! They're a Mediterranean and Middle Eastern restaurant in addition to being a great pizza shop. I ordered take-out from here in September 2017 and really loved it. The cheese was perfectly melty and they're very generous with their toppings! I also love their sauces :D I ordered the Chicken BBQ Pizza, which came with chicken, BBQ sauce, red onions, pineapple, and mozzarella cheese. Beyond amazing!! Each slice was crispy and wonderful. I would love to order from here again! read more

This place was awesome! I am completely addicted to their Lahmacun (like a spicy cheese-less Turkish pizza/taco thing) and the Kazandibi (Turkish flan dessert caramel OMG!). Such an adorable jewel of a place where I'm almost reluctant to share because I want it all to myself. I also just realized they do deliver so I'm so in trouble. Delicious delicious trouble! read more

Rounding up to 5 stars from 4.5. Aden has some of the best pizza toppings in the area. Toppings are immensely flavorful, and heavenly if you care to add extra cheese. They do an excellent job on both red and white pies. The Middle Eastern entree platters are plentiful and delicious-- we especially love Aden's lamb platter. Also excellent: gyros, subs, wings, esme salata and salads. Baklava is delicious, too. Delivery is prompt and friendly. read more

This review is not for the pizza but the doner kebab. It was dry and not very good. Afterwards, it gave us both stomach aches and left our throats itchy. Could have been a bad batch. Not a lot of space to sit either. However, person at the counter was nice and reached out afterwards to see if we could give him another chance. While we are unable to take that offer, it does reflect a good customer service, which I appreciate. read more

A real gem in the heart of Bethesda. Usually we have to go downtown for great Turkish food, but this place delivers no question. First we ordered the Feta Pide which was absolutely AMAZING! Feta, Mozerella, Olives all wrapped in a calzone-esque dough. Quite literally one of the best one I've ever come across. For mains, we stuck to the basics and got the Doner Sandwich and the Falafel sandwich. Both served with fries definitely hit the spot. The meat on the Doner could've used just a little more seasoning, but overall was a great sandwich and very filling. Lastly we finished off with the house Baklava. Sweet perfection if I do say so myself. And the gentlemen at the counter who helped us was more than accommodating and very friendly. All in all, if you're in Montgomery County and you've got a Turkish fix to satisfy, do not hesitate to try this place. You will not be disappointed! read more

I've worked in Bethesda for a year this point and despite my efforts to bring lunch on a daily basis, I've gotten pretty acquainted with the many dining options in the area. Like Wheaton/SS around the corner, there are a wide range of options from all across the globe. Unlike Wheaton however, they are more on the pricier side if it's not a franchise. Aden, however, ends up being not just affordable but also becomes one of my favorite pizza spots in the area. Since I gave up pork, the halal menu only reinforces how much love I have for the place. Most recently I purchased the steak and cheese. The seasoning and unique mozzarella cheese easily makes it the best cheeseteak you can get in Bethesda. The owner is usually in the shop and is very friendly. One of my first jobs in high school well over a decade ago was actually working for him when he managed Domino's and he still recognized me. The fact that he remembered me and still carries on polite conversation speaks volumes about his character. (haha) Look up the WashPo article on this place. He has a great story. In general, you can't lose. It's the same prices as usual carry out spots, but far higher quality. read more

There lahmacun is better thn most restaurants in dmv area. This was my second time, I really like it. I also had the chicken pide , that was so tasty read more

So glad I found this place! I had been on the hunt for beef pepperoni forever. We ordered two pizzas (the Roma and the buffalo chicken) to try them out and both were delicious! I meant to take a picture but we ate them too fast. I'll definitely be back for more. Added bonus: everything here is halal. read more

Second time ordering from here and second time loving everything about it. Quick. On time. And delicious! This time I tried lahmacun. Never heard of it. Loved it! Also tried a feta pide. Excellent! Eating from a place like this is a great alternative to the typical pizza /wings / chicken fingers / cheesesteak dinner. read more

Almost don't want to rate this, because I want to keep it a secret. Best Greek food in the area. We do at least once a week.

I wish I would've taken photos of our order but we were hungry & the food was served piping hot. On a Saturday they offered a lunch special; 2 large slices of cheese pizza for $4.99; I ordered this for my son. I selected the steak and cheese & my fiance had the Doner (Shawarma) wrap. Both were served with seasoned fries. I must say that everything was fresh and delicious! The service was also spectacular. I definitely will visit again if I'm in the area. read more

We ordered through GrubHub. My wife ordered a chicken gyro. Chicken was dry and the fries tasted as if they had been fried in rancid oil. I ordered the most expensive item on the takeout menu, the mixed kababs -- a sampling of every kebab they have on the menu. What I got was a dried mystery meat special. Slabs of leathery, flavorless red meats -- if there was a variety, there didn't appear to be -- and a few dry, hard chicken nuggets. Served with a little rice and some sorry tomatoes, a wedge of onion, and hot peppers. That the onion wedge was the highlight of the meal says it all. Neither of us could finish. The next day: I posted the above right after our meal last night. To my surprise -- and delight-- the owner tracked me down and called. I wasn't in, but my wife spoke to him. He is refunding the entire cost of our meal. In the light of his obvious concern, we'll definitely be given Aden Pizza another chance in the near future. I'll be updating this review accordingly. 12/22 Ordered the Chicken Kabab entrée. Much better than our last experience. Meal was delivered hot, ahead of schedule. Rating raised from one to three stars. read more

We have ordered delivery twice from Aden Pizza. It has consistently impressed us! We are so glad to have found this place. Delivery was always on time or even a bit earlier than expected, which was a nice surprise. The food was consistently yummy and great value!! My husband loves, loves, loves its chicken parmigiana - the portion is unbelievably generous. Vegetarian dishes are really good too. We seriously love everything we've ordered thus far. This is our favorite delivery place from now on. Highly recommended! read more

My family ordered a fairly large delivery order for North Bethesda. We have vegetarians, vegans, gluten-free eaters as well as your typical omnivore. Aden was able to cater to EVERYONE and oh gosh it was delicious. The falafel was some of the best I've had, and my family agrees their hummus is the best stateside we have had so far. The babaganus was fine, it wasn't superb, I prefer what I've had elsewhere in DC. But still quite tasty. Anyway, we ordered enough for 10 people and it was delivered nice and hot within 45 minutes, exactly how long they said it would take. Amazing! Definitely mucho appreciated. We spent about $100 and it was more than enough for all 10 of us. The baklava is FANTASTIC, and their sandwich/wraps are fabulous. I went back two days after our big meal because I just needed to have it again. I'm glad it did...it was still so good. :) Definitely a new go-to place when I need a quick fix of delicious Turkish cuisine. There isn't a TON of seating inside, feels like a pizza joint in that respect ;) I can't speak to their pizza; I've been too distracted by the tasty Turkish food. (Although the Turkish pide is like pizza and you should try it once if you want to live life!) read more

Lost 2 stars because food was served in styrofoam. Not enough yogurt sauce. Onions not exactly grilled. Meat was flavorful. Rice overly wet and cooked. Delivery person was pleasant. read more
