Fantastic food. Ambiance is what you'd expect from on campus dining inside the student union.

This place is being slept on…read more My son had a craving for shawarma. Luckily for us, Aladdin's Cafe was close by. I called in our order and they were quick to answer and the entire meal was ready when they promised. Plus, since I was wishywashy on picking sides, the gentleman told me he'd hook us up with something different for each entree. I unfortunately didn't get the name of all of them. Hummus was good. Babaganoush was tasty. There was a spicy sauce that was tasty with a bite. That was all I got to eat because the rest were lapped up by the others. We each ordered chicken a different way. I got the kabob, parents got a wrap, son got shawarma. Each came with a salad unlike any I'm used to. Lots more exotic than just tomatoes, carrots, and onions. The chicken itself was amazing. So tender, every piece. All on a bed of rice that nice held in the flavors. And the baklava: excellent. As I picked up the food, the place was beautiful inside. Lovely decor and not too big. There was a nice dessert case too. Go check this place out, it is wonderful!

Aladdin's owner is a gem of a person. Very welcoming and attentive. He shared with us samples of…read moretheir menu just for the joy of sharing his delicious food and explained to us what each one was. I ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich to go. It was very tasty and filling. I pass by everyday on my way home from work and look forward to making Aladdin's cafe a regular spot and you should too.

We drove to Maroush from Winter Park on the recommendation from a friend of a friend that they had…read morethe best Shawarma around. We were not disappointed! The food was fantastic. Our group all ended up getting the Mix Arabic Shawarma Plate so we could try the beef and chicken Shawarma, and we started with the Baba Ganoush which they serve with freshly warmed bread. Everything was packed with flavor and very enjoyable. The shawarma stood apart as better than most, the fries were crispy and the baba ganoush was smoky and flavorful. The service was fantastic. The staff are all very attentive, helpful and friendly. The atmosphere was very nice as well. There is ample seating indoors and outdoors, and everything was very clean. The staff were on top of things, there was always someone walking through the dining room checking if anyone needed anything and cleaning up as needed. The restrooms were also pleasant and clean. We will definitely come back. There is also so much to do in the area, so it's worth the trip if you don't live very close. You can find several things to do for an afternoon and grab a nice dinner at Maroush.

I've been to Maroush now quite a number of times. I've tried their wraps, appetizers, soup,…read moreMarakeesh's, rice, etc. I really like them and will continue to support them. I think the problem I always seem to have when I come here is the sticker shock I get when I see how much my total comes to every time I visit. On this last visit I brought my brother. He and I frequent this Lebanese place up north when I visit and he wanted to experience something similar here. He showed me his almost $30 receipt and I was like: "Wow! What did you order??" and he was like "Just a wrap combo" To put it in perspective; the Lebanese place we usually frequent up north, you could've gotten two wraps for close to the same amount. I think that's the thing he had a hard time wrapping his mind around, and I don't blame him. However; we did notice during our time there that a man (maybe the owner?) was busy making fresh pitas in the oven. My brother even commented: "He looks like he's having such a good time making those" and he did. He had a very wide smile every time one of those pita's came out of the oven. I wouldn't doubt that the wraps used to make the sandwiches are made in house as well. There is a quality aspect that cannot be ignored and that is what sets them apart.... Just be ready for sticker shock.
