Lunch was decent here. The food was amazing, as was the ambiance. Service was lacking. Our waitress upcharged us on the receipt, and she wouldn't fix it at the end. It was also hard to get her attention even though there were only 2 other tables seated. Very disappointing. The food was quite amazing though. The falafel was cooked so nicely, as was the chicken and lamb. The presentation of the food was also nice. Hummus and sauces were amazing. The inside of the place was very intimate; made it seem like I was in a movie!! Loved how the ceiling had drapes and lanterns. Very very unique look read more

Great little Mediterranean restaurant. We had the hummus. It was great. Served with hot pita bread. We also had the assortment of baked empenada like things. They were wonderful. Also had the olives and carrots and pickles. Just OK. Service was great. Prices were very good also. We shared the pitcher of cava sangria. Very good and reasonable. read more

Great Resturant with beautiful decorations and a friendly atmosphere inside. The food was exceptional and the staff were very friendly. I came in twice during my trip in Barcelona and both time were great. You get a taste for the Middle East while in Spain which was nice. read more

This place was absolutely amazing and very reasonably priced.Y day got 10x better after having their Baba ganoush and falafel We also had the Shwarma Tenders (I think that's the name) which had lamb. I am usually not a fan of lamb but the spices they used were uniquely delicious. I wish they would hand out their recipes. If I'm back in Barcelona I will look this place up again read more

Despite some of the negative reviews on here, I really enjoyed this place. Coming from La Familia Sagrada, my boyfriend found this restaurant on google (4.5 star rating with almost 1.5k reviews) and wanted to try it out. Me being 7 months pregnant with a complex appetite who doesn't normally eat middle eastern food, I decided to give it a try as well. We went around 6:30pm on a Tuesday and there were only 2 other tables taken then. The place is small and cozy with outdoor seating and the service was excellent. My boyfriend ordered himself a hookah and the dumpling assortment for us to share. Dumplings were delicious and a perfect plate for us to try a little bit of everything. For our meals I ordered the Kafta Tahina and my boyfriend ordered the Xix mixto. The Kafta Tahina was perfect for someone who's new to trying new things and hasn't eaten middle eastern food before- very much enjoyed. The Xix mixto was great with a variety of things and perfect portion. After spending the past 4 days here in Spain, we've had trouble finding a place that serves plates big enough to keep us full until the next morning- most spots we've been to only had small plates. If you're looking for a good meal that's worth the price and will keep you full, I recommend this place! read more

Aladdin - Arabic Near Me - Barcelona, B

I found Aladdin on Trip Advisor - 4/5 stars + 50% off if you book a table online. I was sold. This restaurant has a fairly decent size terrace area and narrow dining hall inside. The server was very friendly upon arrival. Overall service lacked - it took a while to order, to get our food and to get our check, but considering they were busy - I get it. The food was very disappointing. Let me explain. Appetizers - Baba Ganush 5.75 Euros - This tasted like pico de gallo from Baja Fresh Halumi cheese - 6.90 euros - (6) pieces. Every time I go somewhere and see Halumi, I always have to get it no matter what! The texture of this was rubbery and dry. It still tasted good but I was expecting a warm creamier touch. Main Entree - #57 - Combination of chicken, veal, lamb kabob with hummus, mutabal, falafel and fries. Let me break this down for you: Chicken - well seasoned and easy Lamb Kebab - dry, spices were off - didn't like it at all Veal - didn't need much seasoning - this was probably the best thing on the plate Hummus - average Mutabal - Great smoked eggplant w/ lemon Fries - COLD and tasted as it was sitting out for a while. Desserts - We got a combination of baklava - LOVED it - but I believe this is from a bakery and not made in their own restaurant. Even with the 50% off, I wouldn't come back here - the food is very mediocre. Don't let those 5 star ratings fool you! read more

Good food. Lovely service, imane was also so caring for us. Would recommend this spot for people looking to enjoy a cozy place to eat at.

Quite possibly my new favorite restaurant in the world. If you've been in Spain for a month like me and have gotten a little sick of the local cuisine, go to Aladdin! I may be a bit biased because I already love Lebanese food but man oh man the food here is insanely good, tastes homemade. On top of that, the shisha is smooth and cheap, and the service is fantastic. The decor transports you to a Bedouin tent somewhere. I've been here two nights in a row and going back again tonight- that's how good it is read more

Great service and food was delish. I ordered the mussakaa carne now that was yummie. We also ordered the kafta con tahina. I love the scenery inside and out. We opt to sit outside since it was a beautiful day. I don't know about the bread but it was good. So if your in the area drop by and have a afternoon snack. read more

Definitely recommend Aladdin for an authentic Lebanese experience and dining! The ambiance and vibe is so good, I loved it! We had the chicken and kebab plates which where grilled perfectly and the fatoush salad was wonderful. read more

This was probably one of my favorite eating experiences during our week long trip. We had our 14month old with us which is always a little unpredictable. The staff was so sweet with him, provided a highchair, and on top of it all the food was absolutely fantastic! Definitely go here! Reasonable prices,great ambience and delicious food w great customer service.You will not regret it! read more

The food was pretty good. The prices were affordable and it was nice to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings. The service was alright, nothing too good and nothing to bad. The food came out quickly which was a plus. It is also a good alternative vegan restaurant. If you are looking for a quick cheap meal, then this is a good place to go. read more

Hiding away from the sagrada familia this charm Is actually a runaway from an Arabian princes crown. It's like stepping into alladins palace to discover that the mezes and plates are made with love and passion. We shared the sharing platter filled with filled pita (the meat one was superb. The cheese one cheesy), kibbeh, houmous and baba ganoush both excellent, falafels...bit dry but tasty, kebabs, rice , aubergine and click peas stew and spinach parcels . washed Dow. With some Beirut beer and finished with minted tea and baklava it was a happy tasty food adventure. Now go get on your magic carpet and land yourself on the couch for some food. read more

We were skeptics but longed for some Lebanese food. We are so impressed. Schwarma is superb, Hummus authentic and tabouli fresh and flavorful. A must try. read more

Great food, nice location and great person Halima!! Love the food!! Must come visit!!

It was pretty near to our apartment, I used to be a frequent visitor of the place until they started forcing us to smoke shisha outside in the super cold weather, I hope it wasn't cause of my Indian ethnicity cause they allowed others to smoke inside, rest assured their Shisha is great. read more

Very bland mediocre middle eastern food. Meat dishes over salted, fatoush lacked several standard ingredients, pita was rubbery. There are so many grand eateries in BCN this is one to skip. read more

Wonderful food, great atmosphere and very very friendly people. A MUST try!!! The owner greeted us and we were able to order from both the Lebanese and Spanish menus. I can't tell which is better, the outside seating is like something from a movie scene. If you are in Barcelona, add this to your meal plans. read more

Honestly it was waaay expensive for what you get. The food wasn't good at all and the amount you get is so not worth it! Wouldn't go there twice. But if you just want shisha then its a cosy place for that. read more
