It's small but deserves more business, they were friendly and helpful. Our meals were delicious. I even order some for later since I was headed to work. Next time I'm going to try the baklava, was too full last time. If you like Mediterranean food, can't recommend enough. It's a small, cozy spot. It's across from acme so it's in a small plaza. I thought I took pics, sorry about that.

Ordered takeout on a whim and so glad I did! I ordered the tahini kafta platter with an upgrade to…read morehummus as my side choice (already comes with rice). The hummus' texture was different than other versions I've tried from other middle eastern cuisines, but the flavor was fantastic. As for the platter, WOW, I didn't expect that depth of flavor. One of the best Mediterranean dishes I've had. I also tried the garlic sauce - absolutely reeking of garlic (how I like it) and hot sauce (meh - too mild). The dessert case looked amazing and there's many other dishes I want to try. I'll be returning.

I found this place by chance as I was looking a healthy option for lunch. I parked in the rear of the building and walked inside. I was greeted by the owner, a friendly lady who was very helpful in making suggestions as to the items on the menu (e.g., spinach pie, meat pie, hummus, baba gannouj). Seating is limited to a few tables however the store has ample space with a variety of imported products such as olive oil, cheese, beans, seasoning, and even bottles of soda! After viewing the menu posted on the wall behind the counter, I saw that red lentil soup was available and quickly made up my mind! The soup came out hot in a styrofoam cup and was a balanced savory cascade of flavor - not too thick while not watery. After finishing it not only was I satisfied, but more importantly I was spared the guilt of eating lousy. If you like Middle Eastern food and live in Akron, stop over to Sanabel Bakery and be amazed!

To echo the other reviewers, food was amazing but it really was pricey. I totally understand things are expensive and prices are going up but I was a little aghast when she gave me the total. Menu said it was $13.99 for the lentils and rice special but I was charged $14.99 and it was $2.50 for a small side of hot sauce! That and three spinach pies brought my total to $25. That's a bit outrageous for the amount of food received. That said, everything truly was delicious and the owner was friendly. At least now I know what to expect for next time!

The food menu and options were out of this world! We are all big lovers of Mediterranean and Lebanese food and this exceeded our expectations. We ordered the vegetarian combo that featured hummus, tabouli, baba gannouj, falafel, and dawali with tahini. I ordered the flavor savor chicken that came with mishwi and beef kafta on rice with lebanese salata, hummus, and falafel. Falafel is very hard to get right without drying it out and they did a great job at Aladdin's. Also the garlic sauce was perfect! My family and I were all stuffed and satisfied!

The husband and wife duo are very helpful and bring your food to your table. They circle around and check to make sure you're satisfied throughout the mean. We ordered baba Ghanoush with the pita for a starter and it was perfect. Also a very large portion. Very flavorful and smokey. I will definitely be coming back for it again. We also got a make your own bowl. I'm a vegetarian so i ordered the Vegetarian Ghallaba. Lightly spicy but very flavorful. Think of stir fry with peppers mushrooms carrot and chickpeas. You get to pick a base I chose spicy hummus. But regular hummus and rice pilaf is an option. There are a few different options for the salad as well. It was all so good. The flavors married perfectly. I can't wait to go back and try it again.

It's a unique dining experience by choosing your plate (salad, wrap, platter or bowl) then protein and sides. I chose the chicken shawarma platter with hummus and fattoush salad. Great flavor.

My 6-year-old picked up a bag of lentils, looked at it for a moment, and put it right back on the shelf. Nothing was opened, nothing was damaged, and there was no mess or problem at all.Instead of speaking to us as the parents, he snapped at my little child directly in a harsh and intimidating tone. My child got scared, embarrassed, and ended up crying for a long time afterward. There is absolutely no excuse for talking to a small child like that over something so minor.At that moment, I chose not to argue with him because I did not want to upset my child even more or make the situation worse. Based on his attitude, it also seemed almost impossible to have a reasonable conversation. Because of this entire experience, I am giving this store 1 star. I especially would not recommend this place to families with young children.
