Deniz Mediterranean serves beautifully presented dishes, but my experience was mixed. The Turkish…read moredumplings looked great, yet had very little meat inside, which made the dish feel flat and unbalanced. The filling should carry the flavor, and it just wasn't there. The sauce was another surprise. I've never said this in my life because I normally love sauce, but there was far too much of it, and it was pretty much flavorless. Instead of elevating the dumplings, it overwhelmed them without adding anything to the taste. Overall, the presentation is lovely and the menu has potential, but the dumplings need more filling and a more flavorful, restrained sauce to match their visual appeal.

The restaurant's menu lists pancakes, waffles, French toast, crepes, omelettes, salads, paninis, quesadillas, and many Mediterranean foods (e.g., hummus, falafel, kebabs, baklava, etcetera). My husband and I have eaten breakfast and dinner here. Employees told us that we could sit at a table of our choosing. After reasonable waits, two employees brought our beverages, foods, and bills. Here are our ratings for the foods: Pancake tacos - 4 stars - Pancakes were folded around eggs, cheese, and bacon. My husband said that the tacos were slightly falling apart, so he ended up eating the pancakes separately from the other ingredients. He would have preferred that the bacon be cooked longer to get crispy. Nevertheless, the ingredients were very fresh and tasty. Waffle Heaven - 5 stars - This waffle was a large size, and it was topped with Nutella, strawberries, bananas, caramel sauce, and walnuts. On the side was cream. I really enjoyed the flavors. Mushroom sauté - 4.5 stars - This entree had such a wonderful aroma! It contained lots of mushrooms, green peppers, onions, melted cheese, and some eggs (and no tomatoes at my request). It was similar to scrambled eggs with vegetables mixed in, but it contained fewer eggs. Sausages - 4 stars - My husband ate a few small sausages. I took one bite, and I thought that they tasted alright. My husband gobbled them up. Hummus and pita bread - 4.5 stars - The pita bread was fresh and warm and tasted very good. We would have preferred a slightly stronger flavor to the hummus. Vegetarian sauté - 5 stars - This entree contained eggplant, green peppers, onion, garlic, tomato, and potato, and I greatly enjoyed the flavors. The serving size was so large that I had leftovers for the next day. Chicken kebab - 4 stars - Chicken thighs were marinated and grilled with herbs. The meat was very juicy and cooked well, but my husband wanted a stronger marinade and different sauce. Baklava - 4.5 stars - I received a generous serving size of four pieces. I liked the phyllo dough and nuts. Beverages - 5 stars - We drank bottled water, orange juice, and mango juice.

The employees promptly greeted and seated us, and I appreciated that they recommended specific menu items to help me choose. After a reasonable wait, the foods were brought to our table. Here are my ratings for what we ordered: Grilled Shrimp - 5 stars - Several large, juicy shrimp were on skewers and had been perfectly cooked. Sides were mixed vegetables and a mix of rice and bulgur. Chicken Shish Kebab - 4 stars - The chunks of chicken were large and juicy and had a mild seasoning. On the side was rice pilav. Turkish Tea - 4.5 stars - This black tea was a good size and was served hot. Packets of sweeteners were available. The total price was $55 plus tax and tip.

We were confused as to where the actual restaurant was. There is a sign on Route 8, so we parked there, looked around, walked downstairs, only to find it was offices. We then walked upstairs and found that the entrance was actually on the other side of the building but accessible from the front. It's an interesting place when you walk in. We were quickly greeted and seated. It seemed as though the owner and family were working. The menu was interesting, not real large but sufficient. We had, who I believe is the owner, come to our table and ask what we typically like to eat and then she was making suggestions. We thought she was just being helpful. My wife finally looked at her and said, I'm sorry are you also taking flour order now? She replied well that's what I was trying to do. To me that was a little off putting. We all took her suggestions and ordered. The food came out fresh and warm. It was good. We all tried each others meals. We felt that what my wife ordered was the best. The place isn't huge inside but it was fairly busy. It was a little pricey but not bad.

The vegetarian sampler platter is often my go-to, as an appetizer for sharing with someone or as an entrée for myself. Today I had it as an entrée while my friend had Sally's bowl, which also looked delicious. I very much enjoy the pomegranate green iced tea here and our server was happy to keep providing refills while my friend and I caught up over 2+ hours after not seeing each other for over a year, and never complained about needing to turn over the table. Granted, we were early in the day, starting at 11:30 and continuing through lunch hour, and there were always a couple of tables open, but it did get relatively busy during the lunch hour. This is located in a strip mall and has maybe a little less ambience than my usual location closest to home in Mount Lebanon; the thing I appreciate about that location is that it has outdoor tables set up during beautiful weather like today. Here, they don't seem to have that option on the strip mall outdoors so you are going to be eating inside or taking out. In any case, the food remains consistent and fabulous and the service is always great at every location I've tried. We didn't get dessert today as we were both very full and I was headed next to celebrate Easter with my family, but you can't miss with the absolutely decadent desserts here if you choose to get one.

So creamy and delicious and even more flavorful with the pesto, sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts. The Chicken Pesto Pitza was so flavorful and delicious. Loved it! I always got the arayiss pitza but this is my new favorite. I want to try the Greek pitza sometime. It sounded really good. My husband always gets the super savor because it has a lot of different items and they're all delicious. We're obsessed with their cakes and actually come (although I am a little ashamed to admit it) regularly for them. The double fudge cake is my jam. It's so unbelievably moist and the fudge is out of this world. The carrot cake is always a favorite too. I'm also obsessed with their chocolate peanut butter brownies. My favorite combo. Whenever we want a delicious healthy meal, we always come to Aladdin's.

She was super friendly, made awesome menu recommendations and was a delight to chat to. She recommended I start with the char grilled octopus and this was delicious. It came with capers and a grilled lemon and olive oil and was beautifully presented. The potion was easily finished by just me, so if you have more than 2 people I'd recommend getting more than 1 order of these. It's so delicious. I was then picking between the pastitsio and the moussaka. I was told they both have a strong nutmeg flavor which was not a problem for me. I decided on the moussaka and it was so delicious. It did have a strong nutmeg flavor but not in an overwhelming way. It came with a bechamel sauce on top and layers of eggplant with ground beef tomato and potato. It sort of reminded me of a shepherds pie if you're not as familiar with Greek food. The portion was HUGE - could easily split between 2. I ate almost half of it but couldn't eat the rest although I wish I could've. It was so good. The cocktail I ordered was a nectar spritz (something with "nectar" in the title at least) and genuinely was one of the best cocktails I've had. Definitely beat every other one I had in Pittsburgh this week by FAR. So yummy. I was so impressed with every aspect of my dining experience and would definitely be back!

!! Dashers Beware !!…read more I've been working DoorDash and picking up from this location is the worst. The people who work there are nice, but couldn't care less about your order. They DO NOT prioritize DoorDash orders. When you arrive, regardless of the time of day, you will likely be told they are still working on your order. I have, on multiple occasions, went in to pickup an order while there were ZERO customers in the place and they still don't have the order ready or even close to being ready. A typical wait time for this location is 15+ minutes. In that amount of time, you could get other offers and not be waisting 20 minutes of downtime on one order from Aladdin's. I don't accept any DoorDash orders for this restaurant anymore because I've waited over 20 minutes for an order and the staff are sitting at tables chatting up each other with no regard for the take out orders coming in. If you choose to pickup orders from this location, please do so at your own risk.
