    Genie's Combo Plate
    Antora S.

    We wanted to try out a new place and we spotted this place when we were driving by. We went in and no one was at the front and the place was empty except for a couple at a table in the back. While we were waiting for someone to come to the front, I seriously thought about walking away thinking this is going to be a terrible experience. But I was so glad that we didn't leave! After waiting for few minutes, the hostess came and set us down. Our server came right away to take our order and the food came pretty quickly. We ordered Kibbie for appetizers, genie's combo plate and a mint tea. Everything was so fresh and flavorful with the perfect balance of seasoning. The mint in the mint tea is pretty strong, but it was good. The portion size are pretty decent. I definitely recommend this place and looking forward to visiting again.

    We stumbled upon Alladin on our way to the Columbus Zoo one evening while looking for a quick dine-in restaurant, and we came away pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Upon ordering, our food arrived reasonably quickly. The food was tasty, and the portion size of the entrée was shareable. My wife and I shared a Kibbie appetizer and a Genie's Combo Plate. My wife also tried the freshly brewed mint tea, which was just ok. While this was our first time here, we will definitely be back in the future. This is a great option for bigger groups looking for a restaurant with a halal, reasonably priced, and fairly large menu. We went there around 5 PM, and the place was pretty quiet. I am hoping the traffic there would normally pick up around dinner hours because the place really deserves more business.

    Genie's Combo Plate and Flavor Savor Special

    We come here often, and tonight was no exception to excellent service and a welcoming staff. We arrived at 9:30, knowing that they close at 10 but we always know what we want to order (recommend the Genie's combo plate and the flavor savor). Meg was a kind server, didn't try to rush us out and checked on us multiple times. The manager made sure to stop by and kindly asked us "please don't rush", even though they were closing soon. Will continue to come back!

    What an attractive place! I love the clean, contemporary design. Food was delicious...fresh-tasting and well prepared. Service was excellent. Will definitely return!

    I stopped in to pick up some hummus and really glad I did. I hadn't been inside since the space changed hands. It is beautifully decorated inside and lots of socially distanced tables to eat at. You can tell the owners paid extra attention to keep the place sanitized - from the large table in the lobby to the hand santizer and separate cups with pens. I LOVE their hummus and when I order other items off their menu, it is always consistently good and delicious. Service is great, too!

    Beef shawarma, beef kafta, and hummus

    Delicious food and good service. Atmosphere is very nice too. Must try their hummus and cake

    So burnt. We want our money back

Our drink orders were taken and questions answered. The appetizers were all so good. Bread service was warm and fresh, bruschetta was prepared well and was a good amount of food per order. The pretzel rolls were a big hit as well. Salty but still soft. While relaxing the kids got chilly and Kyle offered them blankets which was a really nice touch. Then came the meal. The kids ordered playbread pizzas (sauce was a little spicy), Mac and cheese (which was devoured), and chicken tenders (good amount for a kids meal!). Adults had the sweet potato pasta (delish! And had a little kick), salmon (which they raved about how flaky and well cooked it way), baked cod (flavorful and prepared well), fried cod (nice and flaky, great batter!), and lemon chicken (chicken was a little dry but overall delicious). The potatoes that came with many meals were crispy and soft, perfectly seasoned. This was a really good meal, and we will definitely be back when in town!

Please make sure the highest standard quality is gonna be here forever because I'll be eating at this place for every normal day or special occasion. This restaurant should be a landmark in Powell and no one could change my mind.

I was early enough for happy hour and had a wonderful Cucumber Gimlet. The service was excellent. I ordered the House Chopped Salad, Lake Erie Walleye, and Lemon Blueberry Panna Cotta. The salad tasted really good and fresh. The Walleye too. I liked the fennel salad with cilantro lime rice. I ate half to take some home and not be too full for dessert. The panna cotta was good, mostly because of the topping. It is not something I would order again, being kind of bland, but to no fault of the kitchen.

Everyone from the hostess to our server was very friendly and nice. They have a full bar and a decent selection of beers. My wife and I decided to share their whipped ricotta appetizer and their French onion burger. The appetizer came with thinly cut crusted baguette. The ricotta cheese was mixed with some strawberry flavor. It wasn't bad but I would have preferred it to be thicker in constituency. The burger and fries came out perfectly cut into half portions for each of us, which was a really nice touch. We had asked for the burger to be cooked medium rare and I think it came out more like a medium well. The patty itself was a bit dry. This may be a one off issue and we hope to return to try some other dishes.

Today ramen! 1 mile from my house is Kyushu. Black garlic ramen with pork, 4 crispy little veggie spring rolls and the pork buns. I don't know what they are called on the menu, I just know what they are lol. Ramen is also subjective and I've had my share. Kyushu is just very very solid. It comes out fast and most importantly, the perfect temp. I've been to some ramen places that bring out a bowl of lava ramen served with a side of skin graft. The corn at the bottom is still fresh with a crunch to it. The Black a garlic just has such a depth to the broth. The egg is always perfect and the pork just melts. The spring rolls were super crispy and I really liked the spicy mayo dipping sauce. I love anything that resembles a Bao bun. I especially appreciate the chili oil and spicy seasonings at each table.

The Chicken Pot Pie Soup? Well, let's just say it leaned more "cream of chicken" than "pot pie." The crusty topping... I'm not sure what sorcery that was, but it had the texture of something between a crouton and a pulverized Ritz cracker that lost its way. Not bad, just... confusing. cracker The Mama's Meatball, though, stole the show. Delicious, saucy, and stacked like it's proud of itself. The peppers gave it just the right kick. And Zapp's chips? Always a chaotic good choice. Overall, great lunch, great company, and a reminder that Potbelly still knows how to make comfort food without overcomplicating it. Would I come back? Absolutely. Just maybe I'll skip the soup--or bring a pie crust of my own next time.
