Good late-night spot! It's busy on a Saturday night but the staffs were working hard to feed everyone. Portion was great and everything was made fresh. Chicken was a tad dry but the Lamb was nice and soft. The Plates came with salad, dip, rice, and a pita bread. A perfect amount for a late night meal. read more

I've been coming to Aladdin (both locations) since 2003. The ambiance transports me to family owned gyro spots oversees where everyone knows your name, a cousin of a cousins uncles friend gives you free fries, and the food is halal. In a city where halal wasn't recognized 20 years ago, Aladdin was providing quality meats for hungry college students at UW. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about both locations. The food is inexpensive, you get full, their gyros are delicious, and stand out amongst the many other gyro places that are now closed down. The location up North on the Ave stood out to me. There is a staff that took the time to remake my chicken gyro. He gave me the other one for free and explained how Aladdin's uses quality meats and not the Kronos chicken gyro brand that is full of junk and additives. He made my gyro personally and we had a nice 30 minute conversation about life and UW. I miss this type of non transactional experiences. The other Aladdin location makes some great fool and house made soups. I would highly recommend and they are always busy. A great post, bar place to go on a Friday night. Please support local. read more

Stopped by late night because this was close to our hotel. Literally, the best Middle Eastern food I have had in my life. Their pita bread was so hot and fluffy and fantastic. It looked like it was family run (although I'm not 100% sure). My sister is vegan and there were plenty of options for her to eat here. It's located by the university so there was a lot of kids walking around and we felt safe enough to come here to pick up food. I got chicken and my sister got falafel. The portions were HUGE for the price we paid. Their salad was so simple and refreshing yet still had some of the best flavor I have ever tasted in a simple feta salad. Still dreaming of this place all the way from California! read more

Rana is a friendly artist artist who made the most incredible veggie roll (essentially - Falafel Crunchwrap Supreme) I've had. This is the type of food you want to sit down for and eat in. The texture and flavor combination fit together perfectly in a way that can only work if you're eating the dish hot off the griddle! Any students in the area or parents visiting, give this place a go! I think you'll find the atmosphere to be welcoming and suitable for anyone. read more

Aladdin Falafel Corner - Aladdin Veggie Roll - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The employee who took my order was touching the iPad/register, then went to bus a table and remove trays from the trash, and immediately started preparing my food without changing his gloves. What made it worse was that I was standing right there watching the entire time. It was very busy, and I didn't want to be "that guy" telling someone how to do their job, so I stayed quiet, took my food, and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, my worst fear came true. After a few bites, I had to rush to the bathroom with severe diarrhea, and later I also ended up vomiting. I strongly believe improper food handling was the cause. I regret not speaking up and asking him to change his gloves, but next time I will--no matter how awkward or uncomfortable it may be. My health comes first. I don't care how good the food is; if proper food safety isn't being followed, that's a serious problem. read more

Got their Gyro special, which came with a gyro, fries, and a drink. After tax and tip it was $15. The gyro and fries were great, and the portion size was overall a good chunk larger than I expected it to be. Tasted great and felt like a bargain for how much food I got! I definitely recommend this place. read more

I go a few times a year (although I prefer Aladdin's Gyro-cery just a few blocks south - I think both the food* and staff are better) and I'm generally pleased with the lamb and beef gyro. Not the best in the world, but at $10.05 it's hard to beat and close to campus! *I think the owners are cousins so I can imagine the recipes are the same - the gyros are definitely similar if not identical! But I still prefer the southern location. read more

This place seems to be related to Aladdin Gyro-cery a couple blocks away because they have the same menu. It's open late which is also a great thing for those late night cravings. There is a small area inside for seating and there are only a couple tables. I ordered the Aladdin fries ($10.90). The portions are really good for the price and the fries are loaded with lots of meat, sauce, and cheese. They are a great late night food after a night out and hits the spot. Note that they have a fee for credit cards (I think 50 cents?) so I ended up using cash. I would recommend using it too if you have it. This place is great at all times in the day and I'm going to keep continue coming back if I have a craving for fries late at night. read more

This place is amazing. The food amazing. Great price as well. The freaking Aladdin fries with lamb and garlic sauce, pure perfection. A good hefty serving! I couldn't get enough. The plate also had a large portion of chicken and rice. The chicken was a little dry but super flavorful. The bread was good and so was the hummus. It came with a soda as well. Would definitely recommend this place :) read more

Excellent grab and go spot on the Ave. The falafel is *chef's kiss* perfection. The staff are lovely and seem to enjoy what they do which is make delicious food. Vegetarian options are clearly laid out on their menu. I like that they offer spicy or mild versions of their falafel wrap, which are robust and messy. While there are a few tables inside this small establishment, I prefer to take mine to go and enjoy as a little picnic. May this neighborhood staple see many more good years to come! read more

Aladdin Falafel Corner - Gyro Lamb and Beef Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Seattle, Washington

One of my favorite places for shawarma, Greek fries, and wraps! If you're near the University and looking for an absolute flavor bomb, you cannot pass this place up. My favorite meals are the lamb & beef shawarma as well as the Aladdin fries. My partner loves the gyro, both come with the most flavorful sauces and fresh vegetables. Service is quick and easy, paying in cash is recommended but they also have card readers and contactless payment available. You can sit down in the dining area or take the food on the go! If you're in the area and craving something super flavorful and affordable, check this place out! read more

Came here for a late night snack right from the airport. Got their famous fries as advised by a friend, and I was not disappointed to say the least. While the main dining area was closed off due to COVID, the food came out incredibly quick and the staff was very considerate and kept a friendly conversation while we were waiting. Overall, the food was inexpensive but delicious. I can see why so many UW college students frequent this spot, especially late at night. Highly recommend for a quick eat, or if you're looking for something to satisfy your late night munchies. read more

I expected more from this place based on reviews. Don't get me wrong, The food was good but not extraordinary. If you are around definitely worth trying. But I would not recommend anyone to go out of the way or drive a long distance to try it out. The chicken shawarma was tasty, but it could be a tad more spicy. The Greek fries were yummy but infused with lot of calories as expected. Overall I would say a decent place but not the best in town. read more

Food was so good that I doubled back 2 days in a row!! I got the gyro with the lamb & beef with extra meat 9 (no cheese)...

I've lived in the UD for about a year and have tried many gyro restaurants, this one is hands down the superior pick. Not only are the portions amazing value, the gyro itself has texture and the most satisfying feeling when you eat it. The spices and vegetables balance out the savory flavors of the meat. It's something hard to find in a pseudo-fast food style restaurant which is normally greasy (especially if you get lamb). The place is also open late, and not as busy as it's mother location down the street. A quaint, quiet, friendly establishment that allows the food to speak for itself? What more could you want? read more

Amazing falafel wrap, the best one probably I have had in seattle! Budget friendly. Mainly a takeaway place.

Aladdin fries are delicious! I cant wait you have them again. When I move to Seattle I will be eating here all the time. Staff was very friendly and service was quick. We were the first customer of the day. read more

Delicious lamb falafel and great lunch deal! Owners are super nice! Will return if in the area.

We came here for a cheap dinner, as was recommended by a friend who frequents the area and loves Mediterranean food, and she did not steer us wrong! We were going to a lecture nearby, so needed something quick, cheap and casual, which Aladdin Falalfel Corner is. Yet more importanly, it's an awesome eatery for Mediterranean classics, from gyros to falafels to plates with pita, hummus and the works. You order at the register, pick a seat while you wait for your food to be served to you, and bus your own table. I ordered the Gyro Salad, which didn't take long to get and it was super filling and tasty! My favorite part of the Gyro Salad was the tzatziki dressing! I love greek yogurt, so it really tasted like pure greek yogurt, but with some fresh herbs and lots of lemon juice. It was light, fragrant and really complemented the overall salad! The gyro meat was also very tender and plentiful - you definitely get your money's worth and more. My salad was only $8.99, which compared to other Mediterranean joints with gyro salads at $10+, this one was WAYYY better. If you're looking for an affordable meal on the Ave and love Mediterranean food, then you'll want to visit Aladdin's! read more

We love this place! Best gyros ever. More seasoning on the meat than is normally seen. Delicious. One of the few places that don't buy their gyro meat already cooked and sliced. They cut it off of the skewer there. read more

5 stars for taste, 3 stars for presentation. I thought the food was arrranged sloppily, but it tasted great otherwise. If you pay with cash, you get a free bottled water. Props to the one-man-army employee, or opener, who was prepping for lunch. read more

Absolutely loved this place! If you know me, you know that I love a good Falafel wrap and this place exactly provided us with that. Extremely popular amongst the students at U of Washington, the place is cheap and serves a good meal. Found the pita to be very fresh, great fillings inside the wrap and mouthwatering Falafels. Absolutely deserved the high rating it has. Please check it out if you are in the area. read more

This place is along the ave. Super friendly staff! Gyro salads are my thing!! I absolutely love. I have a go-to spot near my college campus and Aladdin's gyro salad was tasty however, I feel like there was a lot going on!! I should ask for the dressing on the side (tzaziki sauce), I usually feel refreshed eating gyro salads but this was one loaded with dressing and the meat was seasoned a little differently than what I'm used to. Don't get me wrong, the salad was good! But not as refreshing as I would like. I feel like I would be more inclined to get a gyro pita :) read more

As much as it pains me, this experience was slightly below average. The original "Ave" spot down the way was a total staple in college and introduced me to the magic that is the Gyro! Seriously, it may be my favorite meat! That's why this was such a letdown. We wandered in as I was in a hangry state and wished to satisfy my cravings with the best meat since time started. The dudes working were super chill and took my order right away. It was out in a few minutes and the combo looked great. That's where it ended. The fries were unfortunately really bland. A little salt would go a long way. The gyro was served on an excellent pita but the meat was slightly cold and wasn't crisped at all. It was probably the least satisfying Gyro I've ever had and it made my heart sink a bit. I imagine they do better on a regular basis and had one aspect been off, I'd give them the benefit of my doubt, but when both items are sub par, well sir- the masses deserve to know. I truly hope my blah lunch was a dual misfire. Others seems to be enjoying their meals, though maybe they got something. We'll be heading down the street next time as no mediocre experience will deter us from the deliciousness that is the Gyro! read more

Blog portion for decent price, food was a bit grease, good service however charges $0.50 for card fee

Been coming to Aladdin Falafel Corner on the university ave longer than I can recall. Having not strolled the Ave in sometime I found myself at the University Street Fair today and famished. The Aladdin my old friend was staring my in the face so I entered. Not much has changed even the food. Gyro was my order for today and it didn't disappoint me. Aladdin's really packs the sandwich full of meat. No scrimping on the gyro meat with these cooks. Walking away hungry is impossible. Im sure your drooling now so hurry up and come and order one. And in case your wondering there fries are outstanding just the way fries should be. Ask for some feta to top them off it makes a huge difference in taste. I'll make a note to come back very soon. read more

Everything here is delicious and I come at least once a week for the gyros. It's good. Service was quick and I always get it to go bc I don't like to eat without AC - ambiance is very mom and pops. Go here you will enjoy it read more

This gyro/falafel joint seems to be a classic on the Ave for late night dining and for good reason too. They're open late into the night, serve greasy and good food fast and for a decent price. I ordered the lamb gyro with hot sauce and a side of falafel. The gyro meat was tender but the hot sauce was a little overpowering and the last few bites were a little soggy and full of the sauce and drippings from the meat. Overall I enjoyed the gyro. The falafel I got on the other hand was pretty dry and crumbly, inside had a nice texture of the lentils but I felt they fried it a little too hard. The side of white sauce didn't do much to combat its dryness. Overall it's a pretty good option for late night grub and I would eat here again. read more

I'm so glad I came across this spot on my way to target because it was literally SO DELICIOUS. The flavours in every single dish were amazing.

We've ordered from this place for delivery a few times recently and every order has been shorted items. We've never received our full order- not even once- and follow up complaints and requests for our missing items go unanswered. Never again. There are hundreds of places that actually want your business and won't ignore you once they screw you over. I think that all of this is intentional. Every item sold that isn't delivered is fraud and theft and they just chalk it up to profit. No restaurant staff can be this sloppy unintentionally. Never ordering anything from this place ever again. This time, the man on the phone just swore that he had made the correct order, along with with the missing items, and that we needed to take it up with Doordash. So long, jerky. read more
