Fries; tasty but a little too soft
Jennifer H.

My boyfriend, friend, and I were looking for a late night spot. This place was surprisingly good! They had a buy 1 get one free offer on UberEats for $14.99 on the combo gyro. Let me tell you; it was delicious! The gyro was well seasoned and hearty. We also got fries. To be honest, they were only ok but still hit the spot. I tend to prefer more crispy fries, and these were more limp.

Gyro bowl
Ulyana K.

Very good food served here! I quite enjoy Mediterranean food, and this place definitely fixed my craving. The prices are extremely reasonable, especially for DC, and this place is open super late (4 am). I tried the gyro bowl with lettuce, red onions, white sauce, and rice. It was delicious! The gyro meat was perfectly cooked, and the pieces were all cut up and tender. The sauce was perfect,y creamy and complimented the meat well. They had a ton of rice in this portion, but it was pretty tasty rice, so I didn't mind. The lettuce and vegetables were fresh. All in all, I would definitely recommend this spot. It's also got pizzas and other Mediterranean options, so there's pretty much something for everyone. Try it out!

Jumbo slice, folded to fit into the personal sized pizza box
Jordan N.

This is really the place to get jumbo pizza slices in this part of DC (Adam's Morgan / West U St / North DuPont's 18th street corridor). I get some people love the gyros here. At 1:30 am they're busy putting them out, and surprisingly even more so than the jumbo slices. From what I've seen at the 1:30 am Saturday rush (really!) the gyro is made with diced-up meat and kept in a warmed pan, the gyro wrap is the prepackaged store variety, and toppings did not go much beyond simply a sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions. There were no spit to shave the gyros from. It may make great late nights junk food for a drunkard, but I highly would recommend people to steer themselves towards the jumbo pizza slices. The slices are freshly baked to order, or should I say half-baked, which is still delicious and makes it easily foldable. It is unlike any New York slices because it is a floppy rather than a crispy slice, but I'm not complaining (I'm also in the camp that loves half-baked cookies so you can maybe understand some of that appeal). The char on the bottom is decent and noticeable, and the gooey cheese melted with enough blister - and yes, you'll need the napkin for dabbing the grease off of the surplus that comes from so much cheese (and from the perfectly curled-up pepperoni if you get that). Made well, it's worth the eat. The value is reasonable - $5.99 for a jumbo cheese slice, $6.99 for a pepperoni jumbo slice. You can also customize them any way you like for an additional charge. For those not wanting pizza, maybe try the kabobs. I didn't see anyone order them this late at night but based on the reviews, it's something I would consider for the next time. And they're not something that seems to have been pre-made and kept warm ahead of time like the diced gyro meat. I can see myself coming back whenever I want that quintessential late night pizza slice.

Spicy Boneless Chicken Kabob
Chelsea C.

This place has really blessed me and fed me with good Mediterranean food. And I wish this was not the category that it's placed in because it has such a unique and authentic take to it that newer, gentrified, Mediterranean restaurants are trying to replicate but can't. Here, the flavors are bold, they're not afraid of fat, and your plate comes heafty, and you can order pretty late. I love the addition of of a chickpea curry as a standard side, I wish more places adopted this because it adds to the flavors going on in your plate. Its comforting, its warm, its cooked down like a daal but it operates like a condiment to wet the rice or flatbread. Rice is a perfect foundation to hold all the toppings, its warm, tumeric yellow, has cumin, and slightly salted so it stands as its own component. The chicken is beautifully charred, comes in big chunks, and well seasoned both in the spice blend they're choosing but also on the exterior, its well coated. Side vegetables give a nice crunch and brightness, love taking a raw onion bite in between. And both of the sauces are good, one for spicy and own for cooling, so well balanced. This was my first order, but I know I will come here for more.

Salmon Kabob
Amada H.

I ordered the salmon kabob plate and some fries for delivery. The food was pretty good, the sauces were really flavorful and the salmon was prefect. The rice however was not that flavorful and my fries had no seasoning. Loved the garbanzo beans and pita bread, it was soft and still warm from the delivery. Overall, I'd come back here or order delivery again.

Lamb/Beef Gyro!
Sidéwon Andre N.

So I have to keep this short. It was 3 AM and this was one of the FEW places open on Uber Eats. I highly recommend!!! If you order the DC Slice, it's MASSIVE!!!! HUGE!!!! It's a meal on it's own. I also ordered the Gyro and was so mad I didn't eat that 1st. My hotel didn't have a microwave so I had to eat it cold the next day. I could tell if it was hot it was going to be delicious!!! I ordered a can soda to go, and didn't see where I could choose on the App. Being from Atlanta I was annoyed when I saw Pepsi, but it wasn't the end of the world! :)

I support late night food places. Evening shift people need places to eat out too. Aladdin's is late night, but. Not the latest. And always has a lost Adams Morgan crowd. With jumbo slice all around, Aladdin's offers their own take on the jumbo (smaller and less seasoned) and creative pizzas available only as full pies. I haven't tried them yet. Fries are good here. Felafel is bland and without tehina and is served on a pita, not in it. Would tell people to count their change here.

Cheese pizza
Nikki M.

It was a late Night carry out. Place was clean. Everyone very nice. Pizza not cheesy enough. Kind of like New York thin crust pizza. But. It was great. Next time will just ask for extra cheese. Kabob salad great. Chicken a little dry. But with dressing and vegetables. It was a great late night meal. Wick preparation. And easy take out process

Tommy T.

I was here in a trip and was super hungry at 12am! Luckily this spot was a 5 min walk from my hotel! THIS IS THE BEST GYRO PLATE I HAVE EVER HAD! I am from the Bay Area and it's better than every place I had tried! I don't know why but it was just so good and so different!! THIS PLACE IS A MUST GO! CERTIFIED BUSSIN!!!

I noticed that they did not have a Yelp waitlist, so we ended up winging it and showing up. It was a very tricky drive because of the traffic in downtown Georgetown. However, we were able to find an underground parking garage across the street from Il Canale for $23 all night until 11p. When we walked up, there is another Italian restaurant next-door called Flavio. Flavio had a lot of availability, but Il Canal had barely any availability. The street is lined with patio seating and they have some inside dining options as well. Il Canale's patio dining was packed, as well as the restaurant. When it was our turn to greet the host he asked if we had a reservation which we did not. There was a table outside available right away but we prefer dining inside. That was OK because we were told that we could have an inside table but that we would have to wait a few minutes. After about 10 minutes of waiting, they were nice enough to get us a wonderful seat inside. Inside is beautiful. The decor is awesome. There are also posters and photos with celebrities who have visited and dined here. I was impressed that Kevin Hart, President Barack Obama, and many others have dined here. The place is authentic and it reminds me of our home town San Diego Garage Buona Forchetta or Golden Hill Buona Forchetta. The staff speaks Italian, and the plated food is on beautiful Italian Artistic ceramic plates and bowls. This is such an nice touch and adds to the positive experience. Matthew was our server and he is very professional and customer service oriented. We will definitely return because of Matthew's customer service! Tonight our wonderful server, Matthew, gave us the specials. They had authentic Italian truffle pizza and an authentic Italian truffle pasta dish option. We were super excited about this. We ordered: 1 Focaccia Bread for table (came standard with olive oil and balsamic), Arancini (Deep fried cheesy risotto balls stuffed with meat) Balls (3 large), 1 Authentic Italian Truffle Pizza, 1 Gnocchi Pomodoro, and 1 Ravioli Al Porcini. For beverages: San Pelegrino Orange Italian Soda and 1 Pepsi. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! The ravioli and gnocchi sauces were a bit salty but it was still very flavorful enjoyable. For dessert we had a pistachio cannoli. It was my daughter's first time having cannoli. The CANNOLI IS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!! What a wonderful dining experience! Thank you Il Canale! We will mark you down as our favorite Italian Restaurant when we are in DC. Our previous restaurant, Nicolette, closed some years ago ans we have been searching for a new spot. Matthew deserves 5 stars himself for his awesome customer service.

I went in with no expectations and I was greeted by such a welcoming little spot. They were playing some great jams and showing 2000s music videos on the TV. Was this place made for millennials? My friend and I sat at the bar... There were several tables we could have done as well. Further in, there was a register and a digital menu showing the prices of the spices and the combos. We were also handed menus -- one food menu and one drink menu. It turns out they have a lot more than just pizza! And they do cocktails, beer, wine, canned cocktails, sodas... It's a lot! I decided to do a slice of classic cheese and mumbo magic with their house favorite frozen margarita. The cheese, the crust, the sauce... It's $5 a slice, and in my opinion, totally worth it! While the cheese slice was great, the mumbo magic was even better. Each bite was bursting with flavor and it didn't even need red pepper flakes! This is saying a lot, but I think I like this pizza better than Wiseguy! Great frozen margarita too, but it was REALLY really cold. I saw the menu that they have froyo too, which is cool. Usually just the plain tart and a flavor of the day. I went over to the machine to inquire about what the flavor that they was, but they didn't have one that day. But the tart one? It was so delicious! When I go out I never just have the plain flavor, but it really tasted so good. Next time, I'd be excited to try some of the toppings with it It appears to be newer, and I really hope this spot does well. And there is so much more pizza to try!

Gave us warm tap water when it's 90+ degrees out but brought out ice when we asked. Other tables were seated and ordered after us and served food before us. Not sure if they just forgot to put in our order or we were struck with bad luck. Basic things you'd expect like extra napkins, a serving spatula for the pizza, and cheese/pepper flakes to be brought before or with the pizza weren't done. The pizza took 35 minutes to come out and certainly wasn't worth the wait. The pizza was plain, unflavorful, floppy as heck, and had a soup-like liquidy consistency, immediately falling apart. The crust was chewy and unappealing. The pizza wasn't worth $33. Gimme a break. The manager walked by 40 times and didn't stop by once to check on us but seemed to check on every other table. I wouldn't come back.

When we first walked in, the cashier immediately apologized for the long wait times, thanked everyone for their patience, and let us know they were incredibly short staffed with only two people working. Because the tiny interior was already packed, we decided to leave and do some sightseeing first. However, seeing how good the pizza looked we knew we had to come back later that afternoon. There's no negative details in my review. Nothing but positive things and a small recommendation. 1. Staff and Service I really appreciated the cashier's honesty about running behind right off the bat. That allowed us to make an informed choice rather than get frustrated by a long wait. More businesses could learn from this! 2. Restaurant's Layout The inside is a bit tight and busy, but it's located in a smaller older building, so they have no other options. Since they can't expand the inside adding an outdoor pub height counter for eating, a bench or some seating out front would be a great way to give waiting patrons a place to sit. Also a place to eat. 3. The Pizza -The Veggie Pizza: My nephew and I both ordered this, and the slices were massive you'll see in my pics! They were honestly the largest slices I have ever seen! I love pizza and have eaten it in New York and Chicago, and my slice here held its own. It was loaded with a huge variety of vegetables. I requested to put mine through the oven twice to get the veggies warm and cooked because I noticed my nephew's slice looked like a warm salad on crust. So happy I did because it was delicious! The jalapeños were intensely spicy which is on me, since I'm a bit of a lightweight with spice! -The Meat Options: My son got the pepperoni and thought it was really good, and my husband got a supreme slice which he also said was good . 4. Price and pizza size- they're more expensive than a typical slice, but once you see those big ole slices in my pics you'll understand why. They can't even fit on a plate. They had to serve them to you in an actual pizza box! After reading my long review you're trying to find out if I would go back huh? Absolutely! If I ever in the area or stay at the Hilton DC again, I would definitely walk right on over and get a slice. You can feed a family of three on one slice! Adult and two small children!
