Aladdin is definately above average Middle Eastern/Greek fare. The folks who work there are always very friendly and happy to have you at their establishment. I think it's the best 5 bucks you can spend on the Ave.

A great place to go grab a bite when you're up past midnite studying for your exams. they're open until 2 in the morning and the gyros are excellent. however, the people who frequent the place are rather suspect. wouldn't recommend coming there alone if you're a single female.

Very good falafels, but the quality and flavor vary between visits. They are friendly and "usually" quick, unless they're all talking behind the counter. The most unfortunate part about this place is that they allow SMOKING! It is terrible, as lots of smokers stumble in and stand at the counter smoking away. There is even a pillowed, family style Middle Eastern smoking lounge. The babaganouj is good, and spanikopita also, but is taken from the the fridge and plopped in the microwave. If you don't like onions, tell them up front. They're everywhere. Overall, great prices. The tacky tobacco company paid advertising that blemishes the surroundings could be an eyesore to some.

Great gyros and great prices is what you'll find here. Also, try the hot Aerbic Tea - very good. Good for take-out as well. Really nice decorations with rugs hanging from all the walls.

Simply the best gyro and falafel joint in america , thanks God for Aladdin .By the way those two restaurants are stil open for seven good years and three years for the second one , the one thats located on 4139 univ.way NE opens 7days aweek 9am-2am at this location I tried the gyrice platter which is amix of gyro meat, grilled onion , tomatos and the fammous Aladdin;s basmati rice along with garden salad and their great homemade yogurt or tahini sauce all for only $5.00 (including tax) , when we ask how could they afford selling their such great food at such low price? we were answered a simple answer:we make money by making customers the more affordable food you offer the clients you will get to your door , replied the friendly manager with abig smile.
