    The entrance

    What an explosion of flavor and spice! This place accommodated my party of 10 with no issues and were very friendly and helpful. The server had clearly been doing her job a long time and was great. We loved everything, but the star ended up being the cauliflower appetizer. I liked the lamb the most, sometimes lamb is gamey but this lamb was perfectly spices and cooked. The falafel was amazingly fried on the outside and warm on the inside. And can't miss out on the rice! The kibbe was great. I was most excited about the chicken pesto pitza and it did not disappoint! They also have a great dessert selection. Cheesecake!

    This was my second time going to Aladdin's. And after leaving, I don't know why there was such a long time between visits. As you enter, you will see a glass container with some great looking desserts. The seating area is well lit. And the wait staff are very pleasant. We started with their hummus. Probably some of the best hummus I ever had. If you go there for the hummus alone, it's worth the trip. After that we each had a Pita Pitzas. Both were very good. We our both looking forward to go back. I hope you give Aladdin's a try. I'm sure you will be happy that you did!

    Spider next to Kalamata olive  Shish Kabob Salad

    I have been a longtime customer of Aladdin's Eatery. Their hummus and hot sauce are divine. As much as I love this restaurant, it pains me to write this review. Today, I ordered a Shish-kebob salad to go. About four bites into my meal, I noticed a spider climbing on the lettuce. The photo is of the spider and an olive (for scale). I called the restaurant to let them know what I found and was offered a replacement or a credit. I opted for the replacement. When I went to pick up my salad, I spoke with the manager about the situation. She informed me that other locations have had issues with spiders larger than this one arriving in their organic, hydroponic lettuce shipments, and this was the first time they had seen it in their location. Should I be grateful that I didn't get a bigger spider in my salad? I understand and appreciate Aladdins' commitment to serving healthy food. Perhaps management should take a closer look at food safety and develop a plan to prevent this from happening to another customer. Fellow salad lovers, beware.

    We had the sweetest waitress take care of us when we came in for a quick dinner. The food was so good and fresh and really hit the spot. I love their pita rolls. Service is so quick and the food comes out fast. I love the ample seating inside. It's a great spot when you're feeling Mediterranean and the menu is big so there's something for everyone.

    Front entrance to restaurant

    4.5 stars overall. Aladdin's Eatery is a Lebanese-American restaurant that has dozens of locations in a few states. Its menu includes appetizers such as tabouli, dawali, and salads and entrees such as pita pitzas, rolled pitas, and specialties. Prices range from roughly $8-18 per item of food. My husband and I ate lunch here on a weekend. When we were approaching the front entrance, an employee courteously greeted us and held the door open for us. Inside, another employee soon greeted us and walked us to a table. Our waitress was very friendly, and after a wait of several minutes to take our order, she very promptly brought out our beverages (including refills later), appetizers, entrees, desserts, and even clean utensils for our desserts. Here are my reviews for the foods and beverages: Fruit smoothie - 5 stars - This smoothie was a large size and tasted delicious with its blended cantaloupe, honeydew, grape, pineapple, banana, strawberry, orange juice, and honey. Hummus with pita bread - 4.5 stars - The "regular" size of hummus was large enough for probably four people, so we had leftovers to take home. The hummus tasted very good with its puréed chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and olive oil. The pita bread was very thin but had a nice flavor. Farrouk's falafel pitza - 4 stars - This pita pizza had a crust of thin pita bread and toppings of tahini lemon dressing, falafel, banana peppers, tomatoes, and parsley. I liked the flavors, but I think that I might order a different entree if I return in the future. Mediterranean lamb plate - 4.5 stars - My husband ate this entree of lamb and rice. The lamb was cooked so it had a slight charcoal flavor and a juicy center. On the side was brown rice with vermicelli, pine nuts, almonds, and garlic sauce. My husband is not accustomed to eating rice that contains nuts, but the rice tasted very good. The garlic sauce had a very strong flavor of garlic but was also good. Baklava - 5 stars - This baklava seemed to contain slightly different ingredients than other restaurant's baklava, but I really enjoyed the taste. Carrot cake - 4 stars - This carrot cake was a large slice. The cake was moist and had a lovely flavor of carrots and lots of spices. The waitress had said that the icing was cream cheese, but my husband and I thought that it tasted like sugar icing.

    I love Aladdin's and this location specifically. Always always always have great service here and if you're craving Lebanese food, this is the place to go. They are consistent and there is always something new to try. This visit we learned that they now offer beer and wine. We didn't try any but it was nice to know they offer it now. If you are an Aladdin's regular, you might also notice they changed their menu. They added this great little section about eating healthy and the benefits of a Mediterranean diet. We typically get the rolled pitas or pita pizzas. I personally love the curry chicken rolled pita. It has a little bit of a kick but I still love it with their special hot sauce. We always get the spicy cauliflower as an appetizer. The lemon tahini sauce on it is to die for! I have tried many different things on their menu and never been disappointed. Their smoothies are so fresh and flavorful, and anything with their falafel is also really good (rolled pita or salad). If you haven't eaten at Aladdin's yet, what are you waiting for?!

    Vegetarian Combo: hummus, tabouli, baba gannouj, falafel, and dawali served with tahini

    Went to Aladdin's Eatery for the first time last night and it was a great experience! The restaurant is a nice warm atmosphere with Christmas music playing in the background. The service was fantastic, our waitress was attentive, nice, professional, and knowledgeable about the food. The menu is extensive with many vegan and vegetarian options, they do a great job indicating which meals are vegan and vegetarian- they also inform you of the meals that contains nuts. But don't worry, they also have meals that have meat. So more than enough to satisfy all the meal preferences. We started off with the Vegetarian Combo appetizer and wow! We absolutely loved it - amazing flavor, generous portions, and overall a delicious combo of food and dips. I ordered the Sultan's Shawarma Pitza - delicious combo of beef shawarma, onions, cucumber, tomatoes, and flakes of basil all on a baked pita. I also ordered a side of garlic sauce and it was an amazing add. For my garlic lovers - order the garlic sauce! My wife ordered the falafel salad and that salad was huge! Four pieces of falafel, mixed greens, sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, dressing and feta cheese. We both ordered the pomegranate green tea (unsweetened) and that was a great compliment to our food. We ended the dinner with a delicious Vegan, Gluten Free Chocolate Cheesecake. These were generous portions of food, that we had to take three take home containers! Also to note, the falafels are big! We had a total of 8 and we took home 5! If you're looking for delicious Lebanese Mediterranean cuisine, Aladdin's is the place to go! You will leave full and happy!

    Always get amazing, flavorful foods from Aladdin's! I love their variety of vegetarian options including their wraps, soups, and fatayer. My absolute favorite though is their hummus - it is so smooth and absolutely delicious with their pita bread. Highly recommend!

    Food:5/5 Before…read moreHanadi, most Mediterranean restaurants tasted pretty similar to me--similar herbs, spices, and sauces. I realized, I was definitely missing out. Though the wait was long (1hr on a busy Sunday), the food came out piping hot. Each dish was flavorful. The chicken shawarma was juicy, and had the right blend of spices and sauces without being overly heavy or soggy. The rice was simple side, but had nutty buttery taste profile complimented by the parsley garnish. And the friend cauliflower reminded me a bit of Indian Dahi Wada in flavor, but was piping hot and crispy. Now Hanadi's is my standard for good Mediterranean food Reasonably priced, fair portions, and good quality ingredients. Service: 3/10 Self order, food came out 1 hour late, but worth the wait. Ambiance: 3/10 Don't go for the ambiance, it looks like a humble family restaurant. But makes up for the interior with the quality of food. It was clean and tidy,

    Consistently excellent. Over the past couple of years they have been expanding their menu…read more They have a nice dine in space with 3 booths and 4 tables. They also do a big take-out business. The owner is always friendly and helpful. Their Baba Ghanoush, Tabouli, and Hummous are always outstanding. The Lentil Soup is delicious, subtle and surprising. Very convenient location on McKnight Road, although it's on the Southern end of the business strip. Lots of free parking.

The menu lists many meat, seafood, and vegetarian options, and the chefs can accommodate customers on gluten-free and vegan diets. Examples of menu items are lentil soup, babaghanoush, falafel, shepherd salad, lamb chops, many kebabs, sea bass, sautés, house-made desserts such as baklava, and non-alcoholic beverages. My husband and I ate one lunch here. Indoor and covered outdoor seating was available. The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

Falafel appetizer was very, very hard and chewy. Even with a serrated knife it was difficult to cut! Shepherd Salad was fresh but was mostly red and green bell peppers. Very little tomato or cucumber or onion which I was expecting. Not their fault but mine for not knowing about this salad. Again they were super nice and offered to take it back. Donor Kebab was over cooked. Dry. Chewy. Tzatziki sauce was fine. I ordered two extra mini-cups of tzatziki to help me finish the donor kebab. (Extra $1). Bread was very good.
