A hidden gem for Middle Eastern food lovers! Delicious shawarma, crispy falafel, and perfectly grilled kebabs. The desserts were amazing, especially the knafeh and baklava, and the authentic Arabic coffee was the perfect ending. Enjoy the beautiful outdoor seating area, premium hookah, and exciting belly dance shows that create a truly unforgettable atmosphere. They also have a wonderful Middle Eastern grocery filled with authentic products. Highly recommended! read more

Aladdin Market & Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Miami, Florida

A truly exceptional dining experience! First, food... Authentic in flavor. We ordered a lot of different things, but what stood out the most was the kibbeh. Just delicious! Second, staff... The owner (I think) is a gem. She's so attentive and kind, and recommends excellent food items. Lastly, the ambiance... It is for real, for real. Vibrantly decorated, enough seating, good music. My only issue was leaving the space smelling like food. Huge pet peeve of mind, but be aware that the kitchen is open to the main dining space and market. If you want to not walk out smelling like the back kitchen, sit outside (but on a cooler day). read more

Lovely staff, delicious and fresh, with a unique Mediterranean vibe! This is a family owned business and you can tell they put their heart and soul into all the dishes they make. The prices are reasonable for the quality and amount of food served! We tried the Kabob platter with Angel Hair Rice, French fries, baba ganoush, with hummus and pita bread. I also tried there daily special lemon mint tea which was super citric with a hint of sweetness. Tons of parking because this is located next to a shopping center. Highly recommend to anyone! We definitely will be back soon ^.^ read more

Very quaint place with a whimsical Arabian decor of lamps and other Mediterranean items. We had the grape leaves for the appetizer; the lamb ribs and the shawarma for our entrees. Everything was good, although the lamb chops were overcooked even though I said twice that I wanted the medium. Our server was a bit scattered, didn't speak English and forgot about us! She was friendly, but definitely did not provide the best service. read more

Not many Mediterranean options in the area, but Aladdin is a great place to go. Restaurant has a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Family owned, we were greeted by one of the owners. We started with the grape leaves, which were warm and delicious. We had Kaffa Kebbab platter and Kabbab combo. Really good. Both accompanied by hummus and yummy lentil rice. For dessert, we had a Kenafeh. Good for 4-5 people. We ate enough to bring lots back home. All in all, great service by the staff and delicious food!! read more

This place was good, the ambiance is very cozy and decorated. Service was okay. I had the za'atar cheese flat which was delicious, the felafel was really good with the sauce it came with. I had the beef Shawarma platter with the tabouli salad and lentils. The humus was great and pita was soft and delicious. For dessert they had baklava with their homemade ice cream which I would honestly skip and just get the regular baklava. The owner was so sweet cake by the table and spoke to us a bit. read more

We happen to find this place via yelp while we were in the area recently. We are visiting from out of town and wanted to have Mediterranean food for lunch. This place did not disappoint. The service was amazing, we were served on by the owner herself, and she was incredibly lovely! We will definitely be back to try more items on the menu. Everything was delicious. And very affordable. The decor was also genuine, authentic, and the place was very clean, as were the bathrooms. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about Lisa and her husband at Aladdin Market and Grill. They recently catered my daughter's birthday, and they truly made the entire experience so special and memorable for us. Every detail was handled with such care, intention, and love, you can feel how much pride they take in what they do. I've been a loyal customer for years, from their incredible, flavorful food to even their hookah items, and they have never once disappointed. Everything is always fresh, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food! Beyond the quality, what really sets them apart is who they are as people. Lisa is an absolute doll, and together with her husband, they create such a warm, welcoming experience every single time. Their customer service is unmatched, they go above and beyond to make you feel valued and taken care of. Thank you both for being such a special part of our celebrations over the years. If you're looking for amazing food and even better people, this is the place. read more

Aladdin Market & Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Miami, Florida

Delicious, high-quality food with friendly and precise service! While staying at an Airbnb nearby in April 2025, our family of seven ordered takeout from Aladdin Grill for dinner. From the moment we stepped into the restaurant to place our order, we felt like dear guests. The manager, Selim, personally welcomed us, guiding us through the menu with recommendations on dishes, sides, and appetizers. His warm, friendly conversation made the experience even more enjoyable. Despite us asking for delivery at 9pm - restaurant closing time -- it was graciously accommodated and Selim personally delivered the food, right on time. This was an awesome service! The food impressed us with its flavor, freshness, and overall quality. We started with maza combos. Each of five mazas was perfectly prepared. A standout was the cauliflower salad maza, an uncommon but delightful addition to typical Mediterranean fare. The kebabs were tender and perfectly spiced, with the kafta kebab distinguished by its coarse texture, bold seasoning, and flavor, adding a unique touch beyond usual kafta kebab taste. We highly recommend Aladdin Grill if you are in the area and looking for a high quality Mediterranean cuisine. It fully deserves its high review rating! Thank you Aladdin Grill and Selim for an exceptional meal and seamless delivery! Food ordered: Beef Shawarma with Fava Bean Salad and House Salad Kafta Kabbab with Sweet Potato Salad and Tzatziki Chicken Kabbab with French Fries Kabbab Combos with House Salad, Tzatziki, Hummus, Eggplant Salad, French Fries, Fava Bean Salad, Sweet Potato Salad 2 Maza combo platters with five mazas each read more

Another delicious meal with belly dancing!! It was so fun! We had: 3 orders of hummus with beef (1 was my entree) 1 halloomi cheese 2 chicken shawarma salads 1 mahi mahi platter 1 gyro platter 1 kanafeh 1 iced tea 1 Lebanese beer 1 raspberry tea - delicious!! They expanded the restaurant into a covered patio area and beautifully decorated it. They even had chair covers!! The food was delicious as always! I love the hummus with beef! My friend loves it so much that we got 3 orders of it - 2 as appetizers and 1 as my meal! The same friend also loves the chicken shawarma salad! She ate the whole bowl! We got the kanafeh for dessert, which is a must! It is amazing! The belly dancing started around 7:45 pm. The belly dancer was beautiful and in great shape. I think they have belly dancing every Friday night. Everyone had a great time. They give you 5% back if you pay cash! Good to know! read more

Well...I hate to be negative and I usually don't unless I have a good reason and enough "tries". So, I'll start with some good things. I love the ambience and the accommodating kind and welcoming staff. The manager is so lovely, the place including the market is cool and well appointed. I hear the belly dancing on certain eves is fun! I bookmarked Aladdin since it is so highly rate, nearby and I love Middle Eastern/Mediterranean food. 1. First try: I chose falafel & hubby chose lamb. My falafel was fine, authentic enough green with spices, but tasted lacking and very bland somehow. Hubby's lamb was similar, very expensive and quite a small portion. We were both disappointed, but willing to come again for something else due to the very high rating. 2. Second try: Same experience-nice staff, lovely hostess and even blander lackluster food. Still overall positive experience with ambience, too. It was just ok-passable, not bad. 3 Last try last night: We reluctantly came with a big group of friends before a local event. SAME experience BUT waaay worse service!! Even though they are quite nice as always, everyone gets their food except ME! I am so embarrassed, waiting on falafel wrap. My friends tell a waitstaff---nothing. They tell another...still nothing. Finally the lovely hostess comes by and hears the same from my meal mates. AFTER everyone else is DONE they finally bring my boring wrap minutes before we have to go. Everyone is paying at the cashier while I eat alone. Hostess/manager has no apology but announces,"Your falafel wrap went to another table by accident." That's IT. What?! SO disappointing since they are so kind. My hubby goes to pay & all she has to offer in the way of apology is,"Would you like to leave a tip?" He is classy, so says nothing & leaves a customary tip. I ask my 10 dinner friends to next time PICK SOMEWHERE ELSE. WE WILL NOT BE BACK. read more

Somehow I keep coming back here. As a long-time member of Yelp Elite (I may have to edit this review as I was not renewed as a member this year) I have great respect for their reviews and a 4.8 rating on Yelp is quite an accomplishment. So, the first time I came here, I did not post a review...my falafal wrap was below average but the service, including some personal attention from the owner was exceptional. So, i felt my 3 star rating might not be fair, perhaps I ordered the wrong thing. The second time I came was even worse. I ordered the lamb chops, priced at $29.99, cooked medium rare. What I got was 4 tiny overcooked ribs with some acceptable but not noteworthy sides. Had to ask for pita which, considering we had a number of maza items, should have been served earlier. Another disappointment. Round three. Only returned because was invited to join friends. Saw the chicken kebabs on someone else's plate and ordered that with baba ghanouj and eggplant salad. Finally! It was delicious. But wait, my wife had ordered a falafel wrap. I was halfway through my meal and it had not come. Called the waitstaff over to inquire. 15 minutes later and 2 more requests to the waitstaff, no wrap. Finally the owner heard me speaking about it and we began to hear robust discussion about the sandwich among the staff. Finally one came over and said it would be right out. Our entire party had now finished eating by now. My wife quickly ate part of her wrap, which she noted was not all that good, and while she was eating the owner came over and commented that her wrap had been delivered to another table. No apology, no explanation except that irrelevant comment. That was enough as we got up to pay our bill as the rest of our party was itching to leave. At the register, the owner listed the items we had ordered, including the partially eaten falafel wrap and then asked, "would you like to add a tip?" Being me, I was generous despite the substandard service. Again, no accommodation or apology...no accountability for them dropping the ball. There will be no further visits . No reason to. This establishment does not deserve my money and now having been there three times does not deserve a high Yelp rating that I see posted. I think it's remarkable that others have had such positive experiences there, but I will not take a chance again trying to find that experience for myself. Not recommended. read more

Aladdin Market & Grill - Finally a good meal here but could not make up for the dismal experience - Mediterranean Near Me - Miami, Florida

Description I came to this place a few years back for a birthday and it randomly popped up in our minds to revisit again. It's a middle eastern style restaurants with a full menu of appetizers, entree, and desserts. Each entree comes with two sides as well. The restaurant also has hookah available for those seated outside. Baklavas are also sold with other desserts as well and there's also seasoning and other things that can be bought for home. What I ordered The gyro platter, the sliders, and the kebab combo platter. The gyro platter has the meat and two sides of choice come separate so you have to put it together. The sliders come with seasoned fries. The sliders are burgers mixed with vegetables lettuce tomato and pickles in pita bread. And the kebab combo platter has 3 different meats and I picked hummus and tzatziki sauce on the side. The appetizer was cheese and zaatar pizza (I am sorry for not being able to recall the exact name). All the food was delicious and the one platter per person with the appetizer was very filling as well. I know in the future I would definitely order the kebab combo with hummus and tzatziki sauce again. When you're done eating the food also gets picked up from the table. Value The value ranges depending what you get. The plates we got were about $15.00 for the gyro 27 for the kebab combo and the sliders off the kids menu was around $17.00. But once again the food was delicious and filling. I left very full. Ambiance/Crowd All ages were here, the restaurant is kid friendly. There is indoor and outdoor seating, in the outdoor seating people do hookah. People were dressed from casual to decent. Service Great service I have no complaints they were very attentive. Parking Parking is plentiful if not you can park in the shopping center next door and walk which isn't far at all and is what we did. Parking is also free. 4 year olds thought corner My picky eater of a child loved the fries and the place. He also loved the pita bread as well. He was not too fond of the sliders because once again he is a picky child and the meat is mixed with certain spices and vegetables that he isn't used to but we thought the sliders were delicious. read more

Exceptional food, service, and atmosphere! I came for lunch and was greeted immediately and sat in the adorable outdoor patio. Everything on the menu sounded delicious, and I ended up choosing the Beef Kebab Platter and a house lemonade to drink - both excellent choices! The beef was juicy and tender, and paired well with the baba ghanoush and labneh with pita on the side. The lemonade was sweet and thicker than I expected (but not pulpy, more like viscous?) and had mint mixed throughout, and it was one of the most unique and delicious drinks I've tried in a long time! I had to hold myself back from finishing it before my entree arrived. I also ended up getting Kanafeh to go, and WOW was that an incredible dessert! It's a massive portion and has such a unique mix of flavors, all of which come together beautifully to create the perfect end to a fantastic meal. I will absolutely be back for more! The challenge will be pushing myself to pick new items - what I had was the perfect combination of food! read more

I am so sad I am just finding out about this place. Had I known about it when I lived in the area I would of most definitely been a regular. The food is divine. Great flavors. I had the chicken shawarma platter. It comes with your choice of two sides. I went with the tabouleh and the angel hair rice. What a great combo. The tabouleh was zesty the chicken was tangy and together they were a great pairing. The pickled onions also give it a nice touch. I also had the lemonade. Super refreshing and different than what I've had. The server was great and made good recommendations. The outdoor seating was adorable and the indoor had a little market to buy spices and goods from. read more

Aladdin Market & Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Miami, Florida

This place was so good! My husband and I decided to come here for an early dinner after having driven past it a couple times. We ordered the fried halloumi cheese, the chicken shawarma and the beef shawarma. Everything was phenomenal, and large portions! The cheese came with this delicious sweet and spicy dipping sauce that I loved. My chicken shawarma had so much flavor from all the spices. My husband loved his beef shawarma, but especially the fries it came with. We ended up taking some home because we couldn't finish everything. For dessert we ordered the baklava sampler that came with 4 kinds of baklava, and 2 Turkish coffees. I can't pick a favorite baklava because they all were delicious and not overly sweet. The Turkish coffee might have been my favorite part of the whole meal honestly. I loved the presentation and the coffee was just beyond. Service was excellent. Fast and friendly. You can feel that this is a family owned restaurant that has personality. It was very welcoming. I loved the decoration and the little lamps on all the tables. Straight out of the movie Aladdin lol. We already plan on returning again very soon. The prices are great and the food was fantastic. Lots of easy parking too which is a huge plus. read more
