Nice healthy meals but tables are tight...plan ahead of you are larger or have a stroller or Walker. Gets chilly when people hold the doors open when crowded. The food is very tasty and made from quality products. Authentic options. Great desserts! read more

I enjoy Aladdin's. I have had many of their salads and you feel healthy with what you get and leave without spending too much. I enjoy the hummus with pita chips or with veggies, the shish kabob salad, and the baklava. read more

Fresh, delicious, wholesome Mediterranean food. Make sure you try the hummus. Or my favorite dish: Genie's Combo with Jasmine's favorite rice. read more

Ok. It's a local favorite but I don't quite get why. Average food. Wait staff was nice but the seating very close together and it makes the whole experience less intimate. If I tried it again, I'd get takeout. There's better Mediterranean restaurants in the area. read more

Great food. Love their take out process. I ate here for a week while I was on the run and the rolled pitas are fantastic

The food is great! My only complaint is that the takeout salad wasn't as hearty as the dine-in salad.

Excellent quality, service, variety. Serves middle Eastern favorites with homemade delicate pita bread in a sit down casual atmosphere. Has wine and beer to make it a fun night out and a case full of deserts to choose from. LOTS of Vegan, vegetarian, GF options to choose from and everything fresh. Go and order as many different things as you can to try. :) read more

Definitely one of the best places in the Cincinnati suburbs to have a great meal. Expect crowd on a weekend with some waiting involved if you are going in peak hours. Once we finished our lunch, we realized why. Food: They have a great menu with many vegetarian options as well. Beverages, surprisingly, had Lassi, which is a traditional Punjabi drink (a state in Northern India). We went for the Veg Combo which included Hummus, Tabouli, Baba Ghanouj, Falafel and Dawali. Every single item on the plate was amazing. The crispness of the falafel outer layer was particularly brilliant. In addition, we ordered Jasmine Favorite Lebanese Salata which was great. Although I felt the proportion of rice towards the vegetables and beans could have been more in favor of rice, it tasted great otherwise. In beverages, we went for Mango Lassi and Guava Lassi. I would prefer Mango over Guava Lassi. Most important thing about the food, I felt was that it all tasted and felt absolutely fresh - which is a big thumbs up. Ambiance: The restaurant has great ambiance. Although a little congested, it was very colorful and bright with a lot of natural light coming in. So, it doesn't feel that cramped. Service: This is perhaps the best experience I have had in terms of service. The staff is enthusiastic as we (and everyone) were greeted by an energetic welcome by the gentleman taking care of wait list. The lady attending us as very helpful and gave some very useful suggestions among the vegetarian options and even guided on the portions - the right one for two people. One difference I also found was that the lady asked us whether we would like everything at once or one after the other - something very thoughtful and never experience by us elsewhere. Overall, it's a great place for a fantastic Mediterranean meal. Must visit if you are in this area. read more

Loved this little homey restaurant. It was very busy when we arrived but yet we got seated right away and service was attentive. Huge menu with lots of choices including combo plates which is always nice to be able to experience more of the dishes. Food was wonderful, fresh and tasty. I would definitely put this on a list to come back often. Dishes are very large portions and only because I was full that I did not try one of their beautiful looking desserts. read more

This place was very good. I went for late lunch the first time, and for dinner the second time. I got the rolled lamb pita and that was amazing. I got a side of hot sauce. For appetizers I got the regular side of hummus and an order of falafel. Both were good, but I personally enjoyed the falafel more. Their hot sauce is made in house and is very tasty!!! I would come back here next time I am in the Cincinnati area. The only suggestion I would have for the business is to slightly increase the lighting in the corners of the restaurant. I'm all for a dimmer setting, but it was almost too dark for me. read more

A little pricy and very extensive menu, but you can't beat the flavor. Authentic Mediterranean food. Love spicy Kafka roll and hummus and salad read more

I came here the other day to celebrate my birthday with my family (we were a party of 9). We called ahead to let them know there would be a lot of us, they put us in a perfect spot so we could have a bit of privacy and really chat. Our server, Laurel, was so accommodating from the beginning and made me feel extra special for my birthday!! She was super pleasant, took a few group photos for us. I'm really impressed with how she handled our large chaotic party, she was very attentive. The restaurant provided us with pitchers of beverages and extra pita, which made things very smooth. The food I had was great! I'm a vegetarian and had tons of options. We got a few orders of falafel as an appetizer, which I thought was quite good. For my main meal I got the Fatayer Plate and it was delicious. I have to give a special shout-out to the hot sauce! It was super flavorful and had an awesome spice curve (came in mild, had a nice kick, and then mellowed out) - if you're interested in hot sauce, I suggest trying it. The proportions were extremely generous! Most of us took home leftovers. I don't live in the area, but when I come to visit my family again, I would gladly go back to Aladdin's. read more

I always enjoy Aladdin's. I usually get the tuna roll, the tuna salad, and sometimes I also get their vegetable soup (full of tons of veges). I have never gotten their dessert which is always so tempting, it all looks very decadent as you walk into the restaurant. If you want hot sauce, you will have to ask for it, and they do charge you $0.25, but it is worth it. Also, if you get the tuna salad, be sure to tell them how you want it prepared and which cheese you want with it, because the waiter will not alwyas ask, just an FYI. read more

Aladdin's Eatery - Chicken Curry Pizza (so good, I had to take a bite before a pic) - Mediterranean Near Me - West Chester, Ohio

Fresh and tasty. Cozy environment with really good food, options for everyone. I liked that fast service and healthy menu. read more

Very good for a CHAIN restaurant specializing in Middle Eastern cuisine. Still, I prefer to support hometown, family owned businesses!

We eat here somewhat regularly, however some times they do not put enough meat on my Turkey roll. I know the service industry is experiencing challenges, so I don't complain. However this happens more than expected. Maybe I'll ask for the correct amount of Turkey when I order next time. read more

Let me start off by saying I'm really not into this type of food. It wasn't my choice to eat here, we came with a group of people that chose to. That being said what I ended up ordering wasn't awful but it was very strange. The reason I'm giving a positive review is because of how great the service was here that day. We came with a big group on a busy late morning/early afternoon, which included a couple of small children. They were very accommodating to our group, sat us outside on the patio, and even allowed us to move the tables and umbrellas around so that everyone at our table was comfortable. They didn't act annoyed, they were very eager to make sure we were happy. Our waitress was really nice and patient with everyone at our table. Drinks were brought out quickly, refills as well. Other waitresses did their part to help with our table when they could. A great team effort from everyone there to create an enjoyable dining experience for us. As my taste for this type of food is pretty non-existent I had to be creative with what I ordered. I went for the chicken pita pitza without the green peppers and scallions but with added cheddar cheese. The pitza also came with a garlic sauce and honey dijon mustard sauce on top. Now this entree was interesting. I can't say it was bad because I enjoyed everything on it, but its overall taste was..interesting. A lot of different flavor combinations going on. I ate the whole thing nonetheless. It's just hard to say whether I overall liked it or not.. So, yes, I would recommend this place to anyone who is into this type of cuisine based on at least the service here. Others in my group that enjoy this kind of food had really good things to say about it as well..so there you go. read more

Aladdin's offers a lovely ambiance with equally satisfying taste of Mediterranean foods. They are worth trying if you haven't had Mediterranean foods before! read more

Amazing food. My kids both have allergies and they were amazingly accommodating, taking the time to go thru ingredients. I was able to speak with the kitchen manager and go through detailed information. Not only did we have great food, the service was impeccable, fast, and patient. And then...yes, there's more!!! - in the dessert cooler, there were several vegan/allergy friendly desserts, of which, my kids were able to partake in! This is a big deal because they can eat very few places and almost never do I feel comfortable, but this was a great experience. Highly recommend for everyone, as it was great food and quality ingredients, and for allergy friendly needs! read more

Delicious and healthy food at a reasonable price! My friend was visiting from out of town and was craving some healthy food so we trekked up to West Chester to have dinner here. We split one salad, entree, and an appetizer and were full. If you want something healthy, their Kale-Quinoa Tabouli was great. Though it's not a traditional tabouli, it has a lot of Kale so is quite healthy. The garlic sauce that they served with their meats was so addictive and matched perfectly. The rice with vermicelli, roasted pine nuts, and almonds was also super tasty! Only negative thing is that it's a bit out of the way for me. I hear they may be opening up a location downtown. Hopefully that rumor is true - I'd definitely be a regular! read more

Love Aladdin's!! We've been to the one in Oakley, but this was our first visit to the West Chester location. Consistency, yes!! Great wait staff, friendly, informed, efficient. Yay! Wonderful food...I ordered the Mediterranean Lamb Plate for the first time. The lamb strips were yummy with a nice char and tender. Always enjoy their brown rice with vermicelli. The vermicelli adds a nice change to it, as well as the pine nuts (love!) and almonds. Yum! Yum! Yum! read more

This. Is. The. Best. Falafel. Wrap. Ever! Vegan/vegetarian-friendly. Items clearly marked as such on the menu. We ordered takeout and even when we got the items back to our room, the falafel was still crispy, as was the wrap. They put a great variety of veggies on the wrap. And the tabbouli is fresh and flavorful! Highly recommend. Will definitely be back! read more

Aladdin's is very solid Mediterranean food. From my experience, everything was very fresh and the portions are super generous. We started with hummus and baba gannouj with their really soft pita. The menu is so overwhelming because there are options galore. After much deliberation, I decided on the Tuna Steak Rolled Pita because I thought it was a pretty unique option - I've never seen tuna steak in a pita like this at a Mediterranean restaurant so I was definitely intrigued. I found the tuna to be slightly overcooked but overall it was a great choice. Just a word of warning, a lot of things here are VERY garlicky. Their garlic sauce is beyond delicious but you will be feeling that for many hours so maybe not the best idea if you'll be close to anyone else's face in the near future. Otherwise, enjoy it! ;) read more

Love their food! The lamb is a favorite as well as the yummy rice! My friends always enjoy their salad and smoothies!

Everything is delicious! I can't speak to the service at this location as we always get take out but they seem friendly. I have not had anything on the menu I didn't like! Everything is fresh. I love the genies combo plate, lamb salad, Greek chicken salad, and the pita pizzas. The hummus and garlic sauce and hot sauce are amazing and a MUST. read more

Their staff was very friendly, the food was good- it was different. Their desserts looked amazing but we were too full to get any! Will be back to try something else on the menu. read more

My girlfriend and I went here on a weeknight for a quick sit down dinner. The restaurant only had 2 servers and the place was pretty busy. Mike was our server and did a great job taking care of us! The hummus was amazing and so was the baklava cake we had! Will be back in the future. read more

Seriously delicious food, nice decor, and amazing waitstaff. We started out with the hummus, which was very tasty. Then, we had the beef shawarma and the chicken shawarma wraps. We worried they might be very similar but they actually turned out to be quite different, but still equally delicious. We had a great time and will definitely come back if we are in the area again! read more

Yes yes yes yes yes. My partner and I verrrryyyyy much enjoyed stopping here for dinner as we passed through town. The food was amazing, the service was wonderful, and the prices were affordable. We noted that our waitress was the best of all the places we've been on our trip, and if I had the room in my stomach I would have stayed for several more hours. You should go read more

Delicious food. Excellent service. Nice atmosphere and good prices! We love going to Aladdin's!

Aladdin's Eatery - Mediterranean Near Me - West Chester, Ohio

I have heard many good things about this place, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I assume the wraps are similar to gyros. I ordered a lamb wrap. I am not a fan of the pickles and the lamb being in huge chunks. But then again, it wasn't what I was looking for. The hummus was also ok. I think I'll continue looking for that lamb that rotates on one of those spinning devices. My journey continues.... Side note: the manager was extremely great and very helpful. He happily gave me the 10% off for checking into Yelp. I gave an extra star just for his friendliness. read more

Food was fantastic!!! I have the rolled chicken salad pita. Can you say WOW. I highly recommend your the the side of garlic sauce as well. The combination will blow your mind. My wife had the rolled tuna pita. She was just as impressed as I was. We will definitely be 8/11/18 Our second visit was just as amazing as our first. To our surprise, we ordered the same thing . It was just as amazing the second time around. Our waitress was fantastic!!!!! I had the shish kebab and it was good. I felt it need a cucumber sauce to give it that little extra flavor. I did not get the feta cheese as I I can't stand the taste. We will continue to come back to this wonderful restaurant. read more

Fantastic place. This is the second time I have been here in last three days. The food, service, and atmosphere are great. Had the vegetarian platter both times along with black tea as a drink. The food and drink are very tasty and fresh. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I will be coming back soon, as in for dinner. read more

Absolutely the best Mediterranean restaurant around! Fresh, delicious, and healthy!!!! The employees are always friendly and helpful​!!!! There is nothing on the menu that my husband and I don't like. The Baba Gnoush and Hummus are absolutely the best we've ever had....We get extras to take home! Our son loves the Len-Chili! Everyone we've ever taken here has loved the food, even the picky eaters! read more

We're talking super consistently great eats here. This joint never disappoints. Always incredible service as well. If you get a PitZa(pita bread pizza type thing) I highly encourage you to add crispy fries onions. They will tickle your taste buds with delight. Creamiest hummus ever. I would drink it if it were socially acceptable. read more

The food and the service are excellent! Our favorites are the lentil soup and the beef shish kabob salad!

My dad recently bought dinner for my entire family after losing a bet. He didn't think it was possible to have a girl with the Paff name, but our sweet little daughter proved him wrong. My brother's girlfriend was the one who started the bet with him, so she got to pick the restaurant for our night out. She picked Aladdin's Eatery, a Middle Eastern restaurant that she has been wanting us all to try. Surprisingly my wife and I managed to get the kids ready and beat everyone to the restaurant. We were greeted by a very friendly man behind the register, who I assume to be the owner or manager. Once I said we were waiting on the rest of our group, he directed us towards a reserved table in the back of the small room and asked that we have a seat. Once everyone in our party had arrived we started with the vegetarian combo appetizer of hummus, tabouli, baba ghanoush, falafel, and dawali (stuffed grape leaves). The delicious sample of hummus was gone quickly, so we ordered another plate of the delightful chickpea purée along with a few more baskets of pita. In my experience, most Middle Eastern restaurants do not offer a kids menu, but Aladdin's does, which was a welcome surprise. Our two-year-old loves grilled cheese and enjoyed his grilled cheddar cheese pita with fruit. His plate was served before the rest of ours, so he was able to eat while we continued to enjoy our appetizers. Aladdin's offers some unique items that I have never seen on other similar restaurant menus. The first items that really stood out to me are their pita pitzas, which use either hummus or some combination of dressings as the sauce for this take on pizza. The other isn't quite as unique, but isn't something I haven't seen before, rolled pitas. These remind me of sandwich wraps in that the pita used is thin and resembles a tortilla. After being impressed with Aladdin's falafel from our appetizer sampler, I ordered the falafel rolled. In addition to the mildly spicy falafel patties, the rolled sandwich is topped with greens, tomato, turnips, pickles, and tahini yogurt dressing. Aside from the delicious falafel, the one ingredient that stood out the most to me were the pickled turnips. We actually had a plate of veggies with our appetizers, and I was surprised by how much I liked the turnips. They added some interesting texture and a great flavor to the roll. I think next time I would order this with either hummus or baba ghanoush added, which are both rolls offered on the menu as well. My wife ordered the chicken sambusek plate, which combines grilled curry chicken with onions, peas, herbs and spices, which is then folded into a pita pie topped with diced tomato, and scallions. This was easily my favorite of what I sampled. The curry and spices added a wonderful flavor to the chicken and vegetable mixture. The plate comes served with mixed greens, sliced tomatoes, mushrooms, calamata olives, and your choice of dressing. The sambuseks can also be ordered as an appetizer. Aladdin's Eatery has some unique and tasty takes of Middle Eastern food, but still excels at the more traditional items. And it does all of this at an affordable price. Highly recommended. read more

The food is always amazing, the desserts are beautiful and delicious and any time I have dined in, the staff is awesome.
