Aladdin's Eatery is my wife and my favorite place to get carryout in Hyde Park. The staff is always friendly on the phone and our order is always on time and correct. We love the baba ganoush and order a large to have leftovers. While the rolled pitas are not conventional, they are very good. I would recommend the lamb or beef shawarma. The baklava makes an excellent desert. All of these items travel very well. read more

Aladdins is killer. Anna, the waitress, coaxed us into some stellar menu choices well worth the fair prices. She dropped a hummus bomb on us that felt like my tongue was playing with every flavor I've ever experienced. The smoovies were just clutch. I highly recommend some decadent baklava to finish the meal. Oh be-tee-dub, falafel me crazy, or did this place just blow my mind?!! I was for sure taken on a magic carpet ride. Yum x 10. read more

Went here with my girlfriend on a date night and I was pleasantly surprised by both the food and the service... All of the staff were very friendly and the food was great....The falafel was awesome and there spicy dipping sauce that comes with it was so good and different from what you would expect from a traditional hot sauce. They also have a dessert assortment that would be hard for anyone to pass up. We had some key lime cheesecake that was scrumptious. Highly recommend. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. My boyfriend and I love eating at different places and finding new culinary experiences so when we saw a Mediterranean restaurant with such high reviews we were excited. However the experience was a disappointment . 1) as soon as you walk in you are greeted with an assortment of desserts and baked goods. Nice, but all American sweets. I highly doubt giant chocolate chip cookies are Mediterranean 2) all the clientele and employees where anything but Mediterranean or from Lebanon . If no one visible from that area is working there and no one from that area eats there how is it authentic? 3) the pita bread tasted stale and they brought it out with nothing to accompany it. 4) the shawarma was just a wrapped burger but it had no real taste and the presentation was equivalent to that of a food cart in New York The only positive I have to say was the appetizer was good (tabouli) read more

Delicious! Everything was cooked perfectly and really well seasoned. I loved the lamb kabobs, chicken, delicious rice and nice salad. Their sauces were so good too. I really enjoy sitting in the restaurant as well which I don't often feel in most places. Casual, fresh and every component is made with care. read more

I'll preface my comments with saying I would give 4.5 stars because of the location and decor/ambience. First of all, this was my first time dining here. I was super impressed. I am a server/manager at Seasons 52 so I get service standards. Our server James was awesome! Super professional, efficient, welcoming, and etiquette was on point. The manager (sorry didn't get her name) stopped by and asked us how everything was going and even assisted with bagging up our boxed up food when James was tied down with another table. Every aspect of service was handled with complete excellence. Personal, yet professional. I really appreciate that! I was also blown away with the food! This place def appeals to vegetarians, vegans, and gluten allergens/sensitivity. Everything is fresh and presented beautifully. My mom and I shared everything. We started with the app combo with hummus, baba gounoush, spinach wrapped beef and rice, fatouli, and fried chickpea balls. Everything was great! The sauces they offer are amazing! We then shared the Greek Pitza which was rich with melted feta cheese and tom, cucumber, olives, green pepper, and these amazing fried onions. Like the ones you put on top of green bean casserole, but fresh! We also shared the shis-kabob salad with Alladins dressing. Basically it's a vinaigrette with olive oil, garlic, lemon, and spices. The beef tenderloin was fantastic! My mom likes well done meat while I like mine med rare. They didn't take a temp, so I would suggest asking about that, but I still thought the flavor was awesome. Everything else on the salad was typical Greek salad ingredients. We saw all the desserts when we first walked in and they looked amazing, but it was lunch and we declined on dessert. The only downfall was the setup/ambience. It was plain wooden chairs and a small dining room. It is prob the building or location so I understand. I'm happy they moved here. If my only gripe is that, then they are doing things right! If what you want is good food and great service for a reasonable price, this place is for you. Not to mention the vegan, vegetarian options. They're endless. I would totally recommend this place! read more

Just okay. The hummus was very good, but the delicious-looking pita served with it was tough; I suspect it was warmed in the microwave. The falafel had good flavor but was very dense. Lots of vegetarian options. Friendly helpful staff, not a lot of charm in the strip-mall setting. read more

Had lunch, never been here before. Tried the vegetarian chili/lentil combo soup waitress recommended. EXCELLENT. You could try each soup on each side of bowl. Then had the grilled tuna wrap and it was excellent. Also, the waitress and service was very high end for a casual restaurant. This is healthy food and really excellent cooking. Go there, you will be glad you did. read more

Phenomenal Mediterranean food. Lots of vegetarian options that are very filling. Baba ganoush is great. Definitely check it out.

Best value for the price. Good service, nice dinning environment, decently cooked food. The lamb steak is very delicious. Will come back.

They're ok. Nothing really to write home about. Enjoyed the food, but it wasn't mindblowing.

Had my first visit to this location tonight. I was glad to see they have a closer location as West Chester is a bit of a drive for me. I got carry out for my first visit but the dining area was very inviting and definitely want to stop back for that. I got the Tabouli and Shishtawook wrap. My to go order was made very quickly. It was great Tabouli but very bummed to find no pita as listed on the menu. Kind of wish I had checked my babe before leaving but was packed up so well. The wrap was a tasty but seemed to me to be not as good as I remember from other locations. I will definitely give it another try. read more

This place is great! The food is fresh and the menu has an abundance of vegetarian/vegan options. I really enjoyed the half lentil soup/half chili combination. And the veggie sampler was delicious. We will be back soon. read more

Had an amazing first experience here! Everything was so good. We ordered falafel with tahini yogurt and the garlic sauce for an appetizer. It was some of the best falafel I have had. Juicy rather than dry and both dipping sauces were great. For my entree I got the Aladdin's Favorite Plate. The rice was really tasty and well-seasoned and the meats were delicious. I also really liked the greens and the house-made Aladdin's dressing (mostly olive oil and herbs) was really fresh tasting and satisfying. I can't wait to go back and try one of the rolled pitas! read more

Love Aladdins. Plenty of parking. Wine, ok beer selection, amazing desserts, and a delicious appetizer combo. Definitely go and enjoy! Usually easy to get a table and a nice staff with quick food service. read more

I really enjoy this type of food and have traveled all over the middle east so I enjoy the authentic flavors. The falafel was disappointing. The hummus was OK- however that spicy sauce they serve with it is amazing. We also got a curry chicken pizza- it was kind of hard to eat but the flavors were on point. I wouldn't go here expecting authentic middle east cuisine but the food was good enough in general for me to return. read more

When I found out Aladdin's was coming to a Hyde Park, all became right with the world. Amazing food, good prices, and my girlfriend can't complain about lack of healthy, vegetarian options. Win win. If you go, make sure to sit in Grace's section. Super friendly and attentive. Don't bother trying to save room for dessert. It's so good you will find a way to stuff it on top of your already bulging stomach. Hit the wine bar next door after your meal for a legit date night. read more

My group got a bunch of different dishes and everything was absolutely delicious. Will definitely be returning here many more times.

I really wanted to like this place. It's a cute restaurant and their food presentation was wonderful. However, our dishes lacked flavor and if you request more sauce or hot sauce they will charge you $1. Maybe we went on an off day. This place isn't bad, it's just okay. read more

Very authentic taste and look. I had the lamb plate and a couple appetizers all were excellent. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the dishes and very attentive. read more

My absolute FAVORITE!!! This location is so on point and I can't help but get myself an Aladdin's Salad and Aladdins Falafel at least once every other week!!!! My favorite salad in the ENTIRE city! They also have a great atmosphere with nice lighting! Their alcohol list is off the charts offering my favorite Zinfandel wine and local brews. Great staff, great place. ABSOLUTELY TRY ALADDINS! THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE!!! read more

This place is absolutely amazing. Not only is the food delicious and authentic but you'll find something for everyone no matter what type of preferences or food restrictions they may have. It's a go to for my eclectic group of picky eaters. Probably best of all is the staff. Everyone is so friendly and they are attentive but not intrusive. It makes any time spent at Aladdin's a great time. Do yourself a favor and go here you won't regret it! read more

Great food, excellent service, and reasonable prices make this an all around winner in my book. The amazing desserts are some of the first things one sees when entering. You'll definitely want to save room. read more

We got takeout from Aladdin's while watching Sunday football and I have to say I'm impressed! The flavors are so well developed and both the garlic and yogurt tahini sauces are delicious. We ordered an appetizer of falafel, the Mediterranean lamb plate and the chicken sambusek plate. I loved the rice that came with the lamb and the hint of cinnamon was unlike anything I've tasted before. The chicken came with a pita and a salad. I probably would have rather had rice instead, as takeout salads are never usually my first choice. The menu is huge, so I know we'll be ordering from here again! read more

I cannot say enough about how good this place is! The food is phenomenal and the service is always exceptional. This is the place we go to treat ourselves. And if you save room, their desserts are incredible. Highly recommend! read more

Disappointing- ordered the tabouleh and hummus to start...that's where it ended...the tabouleh was wilted and not fresh in addition to not having much lemon or olive oil on it. The hummus was mediocre at best- we decided to eat elsewhere since it wasn't a great start- I had high expectations for this place but if the apps were bad, couldn't imagine the rest of the food. The owner was suppose to come out and speak with us and never did. read more

So excited that Aladdin's is now in Hyde Park as well as Westchester! The food here is delicious. It's the best/most authentic Middle Eastern food I've had in Cincinnati. Favorite appetizer is pita and hummus with a side of garlic. Favorite entree is the Arayiss Rolled Pita. The prices are excellent. The desserts are great too, but I keep coming back for the quality of the Lebanese foods. read more

This is walking distance from my apartment and I'm so glad I now know about it. My boyfriend and I are often eating out but only if we can get something that fits into our meal plan and this did just that. They have excellent healthy and light options but also it taste fantastic and the flavors of the meat really stand out. The bread they give you is out of this word with the hummus. We got the flavor special and a pitza and it was fantastic. I will be coming back again for great service and good food! read more

Food is delicious and authentic. I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes for a table even on a busy Saturday night. The hummus is to die for. Excellent place for a nice relaxing dinner or lunch. read more

One of our favorites in the whole Cincy area, it's always in the rotation. It doesn't matter if it's in Hyde Park or West Chester, the food is high quality and fresh, very flavorful, lots of variety, service is always friendly and efficient. Love the hot harissa sauce, fabulous baba ganoush, well-seasoned beef (or chicken) shwarma, best kibbe in town, tabouleh, kofta, etc. Always reliable for a relatively healthy and fabulous meal at a reasonable price. A crowd-pleaser, also great place to order ahead to-go for parties. read more

Been here a few times and every time has been fantastic! Food has been delicious and the service has been outstanding. Menu is reasonably priced as well. One of my Cincinnati favorites! read more

Tried Aladdins for the first time this week. It was also my first time trying Mediterranean food. The atmosphere & ambience there is great. Our waitress was very kind & helpful - I was unfamiliar with many of the words on the menu & she helped explain everything to me as a first time trier. She also was quick & could keep up with me & my goofy wine-loving friends. We got the Hummus to start with a side of pitas & veggies - delicious! The hummus was so smooth & yummy. I ended up trying Beef Shwarma Salad for dinner & it was so good (& pretty large)! I was full, but the desserts my friends got were seriously amazing & they have so many fresh cakes/cheesecakes to choose from. I am excited to go back! :) read more

We had a fabulous dinner! Veggie appetizer sampler was delicious. Everything is home made. I had the Aladdin special combo and it was excellent. Beyond the food, we had the pleasure of meeting Patti, one of the owners. She sat down at our table, took our order, and made us feel like we were her best friends. Love this place! read more

Love this place! I was skeptical, but the food was delicious and service was great. It's a great option for those that are vegetarian as well, lots of choices. Portions are very generous. Will definitely be returning many times! read more

The food was very good. The only reason I only give 3 stars is because our service was pretty slow and my plate had dried food on it.. I will try again because the food was good and I really liked the pomegranate green tea..I'm hoping for better service... I'll let you all know :) read more

Aladdin ' is one of the few chains I'm fond of. Food is always delicious and I've never had a bad experience with the serbice.

Great service, excellent food. Family friendly so it is possible there will be screaming kids but we'll go back, certainly

Had an excellent meal, service was wonderful and the meal was great as always. The food is so fresh and flavorful. I never get tired of eating here. So happy to have a location closer to home. read more

Loved this place! V9 is the best vegetable soup I've ever had. Chicken Pitza and flavor saver platter were so good! The hummus and falafel are incredible. The food is fairly healthy but well priced, fresh, filling, and delicious. Desserts are from an amazing Cleveland bakery. Can't wait to go back! read more

This place is amazing! We saw the great reviews on Yelp and decided to give it a try. I echo everyone's comments about the hummus with garlic and hot sauce-so good! We split the Mediterranean plate and the meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned-truly. We also had some fresh juice and cake (almond tiramisu and mocha chocolate cake) both great choices. The service was also top notch. This will definitely be a regular place for us from now on! read more
