Good spot, great vibe, and amazing service. Lili was a great server and very knowledgeable.
I tried Jasmine's favorite rice topped with beef shawarma; the rice tasted really good, but the beef shawarma was average.
If I have more time in Mt Lebanon, I will come back again to try something else.

Aladdin’s never disappoints! We had a real nice dinner tonight. I had the Aladdin’s platter and my wife had the Gene’s Combo platter. BOTH were delicious! I highly recommend eating here in Mt.Lebanon. I can’t wait to come back again! Leah was our server and she was informative about the menu and attentive. I wish they would open a new Aladdin’s in the West Hills area!

Chicken salad salad was delicious as usual. Soup and a dish of spicy cauliflower made my dining partner happy in a cold day. We've never ordered anything that disappointed us!
Tim
I’ve never been let down at any Aladdin’s location. The food is delicious and fresh, the portions are appropriate, and the prices are great given the aforementioned quality and portion. I’m a sucker for any of the wraps with pickled turnips on them and the tabouli is amazing.
Carl Froess
Very good food and the staff care and are knowledgeable. Get the hummus with veggies.
While the food here is normally very good, recently the cauliflower appetizer has been subpar.
Sydney Cawley
My mom and I love coming to Aladdin’s! It’s healthy and the staff is always so kind and inviting. A top spot in mt. Lebanon

Our first time here, and we were very pleasantly surprised. A casual, yet serene vibe. Our server was very attentive and helpful. That MENU though! Varied with plentiful vegan and vegetarian options. My husband got a salad with grilled chicken and it was superb!! Utterly fresh. We shared a bit and still took some home. We shared hummus and pita, very good. A small served two easily. I loved my "rolled" dish. Delicious chicken shwarma rolled in an oversize pita and lightly toasted. Think of a long, skinny burrito. Tender chicken with veggies and sauce, just splendid. We skipped dessert as we were full. We saw plentiful choices of baklava an.various cakes and cheesecake. We will recommend this restaurant to everyone, and will be back soon. I won't ding them any stars this time, but with a heavy takeout business competing with folks in line, it took awhile to be seated. They need two separate stations for.this, definitely. That being said, I LOVED this gem.

Nice place with good ambience. They do have various options for vegans. You will be completely spoiled with their list of appetizers. Don’t forget to try their homemade sauce.
The order was quick. We ordered mango smoothie and carrot juice. They are freshly made and I guess without sugar
Appetizers - spicy cauliflower and falafel. They cauliflower was too good and falafel was just perfect
We ordered hummus tabouli garden wrap - pita bread wrapped with their award winning hummus, tabouli and greens.
And also curry chicken wrap. The food was good but we couldn’t complete the plate. Hence, check before you order.. else just take out the remaining for late night munching
Betsy Reed
The service was amazing! Birthday raw vegan dessert included for my birthday. Food solid but apparently suffering from the great walk out post covid. Restaurant was kinda dirty too with unbussed tables, etc.
Rahul Raghavan
The restaurant is in a good location and easily noticeable while driving. The food tasted fresh though the bread that comes with hummus could have been better. We ordered Chicken shawarma and Hummus Falafel veg wrap with turnip and Baba Ghanoush. The food was yummy. The veg soup we ordered was average. There are plenty of options which is a blessing for anyone looking for one. Our server was super attentive and made sure that we were taken care of. The interior is a bit archaic. If you do not find parking onthe main road there is plenty of parking behind the building in the public parking lot for around a dollar per hour.
Patrick Horgan
They don’t miss. The menu is varied and all very healthy and vegetable-forward. They keep the good but are always adding new great things. Take-out is great, too.
I *LOVE* that they still have physical menus. Yet, they are still current enough to offer seamless digital payment.
The staff at every location is always very nice, the bathrooms are super clean. Honestly I’m blown away every time.
Jeff Wieland
Honestly after 4 visits I can't find anything wrong with this place nor the food.
Service is nice over all, food has always been on point, and we even got Lebanese beer this time! The tuna shwarma had huge chunks of grilled tuna and the sauce flavors go together so well.
Sir Harves
We ordered falafel which was very tasty. Also, Mujadara speciality food was a big portion which took me 30 minutes to finish. Everyone of us enjoyed the food and quite vibe. I will visit again to try other food too.
They have good selection for vegans as well.
Diana
If you are looking for a good Middle Eastern food Aladdin's Eatery at Mt. Lebanon is best place to get it. They not only simplify menu by labels such V-for vegetarian VG-vegan GF-gluten free N-contains nuts, but you also get a great choice of smoothies and delicious shareable (cakes are that big) desserts. Depending on a time of the day place can be packed because it’s not that big so you might consider take out. Otherwise atmosphere is so nice that it makes the place be a great place for the dates. I only give it 4 stars because I think they need to offer better tea and coffee-something more than just regular ones.

First off God bless! First time trying Lebanon food and definitely left me intrigued to try more foods, desserts or drinks from Lebanon 🇱🇧 I don’t know if I used to the Pita correctly but I’ll definitely use it if I have to on anybody saying they don’t like it 😂 The pita smelled fresh and even had some scents of spices coming from it (might be wrong) but it smelled like a hint of garlic to me; it was nice and soft, thin, tore easily and was definitely sustainable for scooping up the meat and hummus. I had read online that Hummus has a garlic taste, to me this Hummus might be different; it had a taste of acidity somewhat like lemon or lime squeezed into it. The freshness of the tomatoes, parsley and fried pine nuts gave it a great touch of freshness and texture. I as well got the Diamond Backlava which has a honey taste to it with a flavor I can’t really describe; it had walnuts and it looked like pistachios lightly dusted over it but for some reason it wasn’t satisfying my pallete, which is no big deal because at the end of it I stayed intrigued to give Lebanon food another try! So over all 1 out of 10 I give this food a great 7 🙏🏼
Justin
We love their hummus rolls, their falafels, and the pitza. The side of garlic sauce is amazing. Very friendly staff, and very good atmosphere for the price range.
Lata Melwani
Restaurant serving delicious Mediterranean food. There Falafels are delicious! They have multiple options of kebobs and rolls. For deserts some amazing array of baklavas.
Bryan Lanken
faddy is a scumbag who screwed me over when i worked there<br/><br/>6 years ago i was a hard worker working with great people except three idiots who couldnt even find their own asses even with special training. i had a baby on the way and faddy was the least helpful in my situation even though he had a child on the way as well<br/><br/>the work place was risky and i demanded special equipment to prevent burns and i was only given mittens. what makes it worse was that he made it ok for me to do everyone elses job and pick up their slack. <br/><br/>he then fired me after putting 3 years of hard work and a month right after i had my daughter. he literally left me almost on the streets. <br/><br/>even though im better off now i still nurse a hatred against him and his hypocryisy. i do miss my aladdins family sometimes ecxept josephine julin and ahlam they were a bunch of morons. <br/><br/>dont eat here if your a young father. there faddy one father to another
Krista Liokareas
Aladdin’s has great variety of food, and service is good! Love the falafels, the fresh juice is so good and it’s in a great location overall recommend
Doug Anderson
Staff and management were so condescending towards me that I never want to step foot in this location ever again. I don't appreciate the negative attitude I received from the servers and even the manager on duty, who was some lady with reddish hair. <br/><br/>What started it was an error in a take out. I ordered a lamb roll with no tahini and turnips and a hummus over the phone. I arrived there about 15 minutes later and they weren't ready yet. I understand If it takes a little bit but the restaurant wasn't even busy....<br/><br/>after waiting for another 10 minutes I finally get the bag of food I ordered. I noticed something strange and opened it up. I saw that there were more items in the bag but I ordered two things. They had my roll, a hummus, and some grape leaves. I told the server I didn't order any grape leaves. She actually insisted I did. It was a stupid back and forth argument! I DIDN'T ORDER EXTRA THINGS!<br/><br/>I couldn't stand how dense the server was so I decided to speak to a manager...big mistake! Apparently she comes in and tells me the same thing. Then she goes "Maybe if you learned how to speak more clearly then maybe the server would have gotten your order right." <br/><br/>I was completely astonished. I decided to tell them I don't want the order and just walked off. I can't believe what happened. <br/><br/>What makes it worse is I have to either go to the North Hills or McMurray to just get the same food but actual good service. I live 5 minutes walking distance from the location. I'm seriously considering filing a complaint to corporate over this. Honestly, it was ridiculous.
Megan Gerson
Great food, love the house salad and if I'm in the mood for falafel, they do not disappoint. The chicken tawook is also excellent along with the shish kabob platter and the shish kabob salad. The baba ganoush was a little overly garlicly the last time we went but overall this place is consistently good. And the desserts... oh my god the desserts. They are so good, the only problem is deciding which one to eat.
Sarah
Great location. Food is authentic and tasty. Service is usually fast and friendly. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, I love the lentil soup.
C.D.S.
Their food is pretty good. Nothing special, but nothing to complain about either. I will say that their Loubie Bzeit taste like my grandmother made them. Big fan of those. Service has been fine when dining in, and my wife is a big fan of their desserts. I think they're partnered with a local bakery, because they have a huge selection of cakes and cheesecakes. Good stuff.<br/><br/>The mediocre score is driven more by a recent takeout experience. I picked up my order. The bag felt light when I gave it a quick peek. I rattled off my order to confirm and the cashier said, "Yep, it's there."<br/><br/>I walked out to my car and decided I should check the containers before I drove home. Both appetizers were missing. I walked back inside and said "You forget my appetizers." The girl's response? "No I didn't."<br/><br/>"YES. YOU DID." I proceeded to repeat my order a second time, pull everything out of the bag, open the two entree containers, and demand to know where the appetizers were. At that point, she turned around to see them sitting on the counter behind her.<br/><br/>Look, I have NO PROBLEM with someone making a mistake. It happens. But she should've confirmed the first time I questioned the accuracy of the order, and she CERTAINLY should have confirmed when I came back in the second time. I shouldn't have to PROVE to you that you made a mistake.<br/><br/>So...I'm pretty "meh" on this place going forward. Check your takeout orders before you leave!

Amazing!. Tasty desserts, great vegan food, excellent Lebanese cuisine, and a superb pick of affordable wines and beers. I highly recommend.
David C Christopher
So so mediterranean food. Ordered the hummus of course as that's usually a great appetiser. Bland and not much going on there. Could have used more sesame oil, garlic and lemon juice for my taste. Pita should have been served warm. Had the lamb salad as my entree and the lamb was good, tender, and flavorful but couldn't say much about the rest of the salad. No onion and just a few olives which were very good but could have used a few more. Some candied walnuts would have made a nice touch to this salad to spice it up abit. Mint tea to drink but very slow on the refills and there were only 4 tables being used so it wasn't crowded.
Craig Johnston
They messed up our order. Didn't give us any bread with our hummus. We ordered curried chicken and they gave us beef instead. They usually are good but not on this night.
SalehAj
THATS A WRONG ADDRESS !!!!!
Mike_ash_pgh
You want to dislike it because it's a chain, but it's so tasty across the board, the servers are unfailingly genial and attractive, and it's very nicely decorated and maintained, with reasonable prices. One of our go-to places in Mt. Lebanon.
Enggreg
My wife and I still talk about it - really good...... We went to Rollier's Hardware and when we came out we found some idiot double parked us in at the meter. So we went to get something to eat to kill time. We stopped in at Aladdin's and were very happy we did. I don't remember the name of what I had, but we ordered several things and all of it was delicious. The next time we go to Pitt to visit my wife's family, i will insist we go back. BTW.. Our server was a real nice kid too. Check it out!!!

Really enjoyed the hummus chicken plate and the chicken tawook over jasmine rice with hot sauce.
Tammy B
Went to new rest in mcmurray pa and oh so YUMMY! Menu was great for my 5 year old as well!!! Food was so GOOD and rest was very clean and service was excellent!
Laura
Nicer than it looks from the outside. Nice place to stop for lunch, and tons of veg options. Waitress was really sweet and took the time to help us pick entrees.
Fluffy Dogs
It's ok but it's on the bland side and the prices could be better. I usually go for lunch when uptown and it's acceptable.
PghGal
Love it. Love this place. Grape leaves, kibbeh, tabouleh, hummus--all wonderful. Desserts--eh, not so much...but who needs 'em!
JamieCisMe
Always a great meal, HUGE selection and so many vegetarian options. I've never been disappointed.
Paige Carrigan
Nice staff. Love the tabbouleh, falafel, baba, soups, and salads Not actually that big on their desserts, though. <br/>I could eat here at least 2x/week.
Julie
I love love love Aladdin's there hummus is so creamy my new favorite is the spicy beef kafta rolled. I Love Aladdins hot sauce and I am obsessed with the garlic sauce I get a quart every time I go you should too! Can't say enough good things about Aladdin's!
SKR
Good overall, but needs more family-friendly amenities. Overall, I love Aladdin's. I've been to multiple locations. Good food, reasonable price, great staff and service. Mostly family-friendly; however, the Mt. Lebanon location does not have a changing table in the bathroom, though there is plenty of space for one. I would recommend they install one in each place. Was there for lunch a few weeks ago and had to change my 4-month-old baby on the floor of the restroom. Very awkward!
Francis Nolan
One of my absolute favorites in Mount Lebanon. Smoothies, soups, salads, and hummus are all outstanding. Prices are reasonable, staff is friendly. Middle eastern treats are a great respite from typical Pittsburgh bar food and pizzas.
Broch
Small portions, very pricey!. I discovered this restaurant 2 years ago. It was excellent back then and we got takeout fairly often. The last 2 times we ordered takeout (chicken salads). We were disappointed both times wtih the portion sizes which seemed to be smaller each time. It's a shame since it is close and healthy but $20 for 2 side salads is a bit much.
William R. Reynolds Young
Great food/service. The food is amazing. Especially the hummus and smoothies! The service is excellent. Every time we go it's prompt. The price is affordable. Aladdin's offers great unique, healthy and balanced meals at great prices!
Effort
Enjoyable. Have to start with the hummus...tasty. Had the chicken chili which was very tasty and filling on a cold day. <br/><br/>Lots of fancy deserts in the case but was to full to try...next time.
Finerdiner
Hit or miss. As a rule Alladins is good and healthy, but dont eat there within 2 hrs of closing. food has been laying around too long. lentil soup was pasty and lacked flavor. greens in salads leav a lot to b desired . you get shorted on soups , and sandwiches in later evening. Not salt pepper of sugar on tables. You have to ask for everything. Chicken and beef are cooked early and kept warm so they get rubbery. V-nine soup is very good. The unlevened bread is flavorles and tastes like you're eating papr uor card board. Only in a pinch will I eat there
FoodTV
Vegans Welcome! Clean, bright and done right!. Finally somewhere in MT. Lebo got it right! You can't help how other customers may act (especially in an old money-delusional kind of upper class neighborhood like Mt. Lebonon), but the staff is GREAT! It doesn't matter if you come in with a suit or a sports bra after the gym, they treat you with a polite action that makes you feel welcomed. That right there was enough to have me come back (as most other places in this area get this aspect wrong).<br/><br/>The food is something you'd find in a big city from a caring kitchen staff. A city like Pittsburgh is much more progressive than it's East Coast counterparts like Cleveland or Buffalo. Therefore, I was really happy to see vegetarian and even VEGAN options on the menu!<br/><br/>I order the Mediterranean platter (to try a little bit of everything) and I was not disappointed. I have had bad hummus and bad felafel across the USA, and this place just slammed it out of the park! Nothing was under/over cooked/fried or under/over seasoned. It was perfect! The sauces were very good as well. The vegetarian options for soup were robust and bright yet not over seasoned. I suspect they let the natural flavors of the veggies do most of the talking here and while it was fresher than most American are probably used to (how sad is that!), it was absolutely lovely and tasty; just not in an over salted-typical kind of way.<br/><br/>The main idea that rocked was consistency! Any restaurant can have good food if you catch them on a good day; then you go back and the exact same dish isn't nearly as good. This place was NOT that at all. I ordered the soup and platter many times and every single time it was the same - DYNAMITE!!!<br/><br/>Surprisingly, the prices were not over the top either! For a place like Mt Lebo that may charge you $5 for a cup of coffee in a local shop, this was very refreshing to see.<br/><br/>They have other locations in the city as well, but I have not been there.<br/><br/>DOGS WELCOMED OUTSIDE!
DeliciousDish
Masterful Mediterranean. I love having an Aladdin's nearby. The food is consistently delicious and it's an excellent choice when you feel like eating good, wholesome, clean food. We regularly choose Len-Chili, the Loubie Platter, a Pitza or anything with the Chicken Shawarma. House dressing really brings the salads to life. Great food!
Hungry Burgher
Variety is the spice of life. I love that there's a place nearby where I can get something different when I don't want to cook. Sometimes I just want something different, not the typical burger and fries or pizza & subs. This fills the void. The atmosphere inside is comfortable and laid back. The service is friendly, and the food is consistently good. The Foole M Damas is great. And the salads just make me happy. The price is reasonable, and the desserts beckon even when just walking by.
Dcauthon
Gluten-Free Friendly. This restaurant has a special menu available that has which of their dishes are gluten free and which are vegan. It is a fairly extensive list. Just ask when being seated. The food was delicious. I'll definitely go back.
Jeff
Small gem!. I absolutely love this place. the food is great and the prices are low! try the honey mustard chicken wrap!
Heather Leigh
Service was quick and wonderful. I had the Mediterranean Lamb Plate and it was exceptional. I love the rice and the sauces. Also try the fresh fruit smoothie. Yummy and won't fill you up before dinner.
Braden Parker
Good stuff. I don't like humus, but I like the humus from here. It's that good! Their soups are awesome, too! Great, freshly made veggie drinks too!
Casidilla
Always pleased. I've only been to this location and never have had a bad experience. I have dined in and taken out here. I've only had a handful of items on the menu but have never been disappointed. For lunch today I had the Shawarma Rolled. It was my 2nd time having this and I love it!
Bbertstan
WOW. This place has it all. The food is great. The service is fast and friendly. The food is great, The atmosphere is very nice and cozy. The food is great. The desserts are tasty enough to make you want to come in just for them. Did I mention the food is great. My wife and I found this place after Jasmine's closed and are sorry we didn't find it sooner. We were always weary to go there because of parking, but it is worth it.
Fork O' The Town
Makes me Hummus!. Fresh and delicious, I could always eat here! The desserts are FIERCE!
Bill
Salty. The vegetarian platter (particularly the creamed eggplant and hummus) and the lentil soup tasted a bit salty. But the ambience was nice.
MARK
Neat place with a nice vibe.. I really liked it here. We stopped for a late lunch and I munched on hummus with a couple of glasses of three blind moose wine. Cool little place to relax with some wine, good food and friends.
Elizabeth Flood
One of my Favorite Places. The chicken mishwi with Aladdin's dressing and hummus chicken platter are amazing. My favorites :)
Leek
What's Not to Like. It's cheap, it seems somewhat healthy, and is consistent. The lunch and dinner prices are the same and it's just good food. The only downside is I'm not always in the mood for Mediterranean, but that's my problem, not theirs.
Dawny

J-Dub
Loves it!. I've been eating at this location for years. it's one of my favorite restaurants in the area. they have amazing food, killer desserts, and a great beer selection. <br/><br/>i'd encourage anyone looking for something other than pizza and wings to check it out. the servers know the menu well and can make some suggestions for some first timers. it's a small restaurant but very nice and super clean. a definite must try!
Swelmelz
This location...not so much. I really do like Aladdins - JUST NOT THIS LOCATION. Service is mediocre at best. I finally had to go back to the kitchen myself - last visit - to get some sugar for my tea - since they stopped putting it on the table and my tea was getting cold after almost 15 minutes. The $6 slice of cake was SO stale and nasty that I can't believe they served it. However - our server did forewarn me which ones were the "freshest" but, I failed to heed her recommendations. So,I tried another cake instead (take out - it was nasty too) and wished I would have just got my money back. I ordered hummus to go (this is always consistently good) and discovered they shorted me on an order of pita bread to go with it. We had 2 separate checks at our table. We paid cash for the $45 bill and I put my $20 check on my visa. The waitress comes back with my credit card receipt - only to find out she charged my card for the $45.00. The waitresses are clueless or just not properly trained. My last 3 visits were aggravating from beginning to end. I have no qualms with the Sq. Hill location. I have a wonderful experience every time I go. So, this must be the bad apple of the bunch.
Kelly
Great food and dessert!. I love this place and I plan to go back many more times to try more menu items. The falafel salad is great. Also, the desserts are amazing - be sure to save room or make a special trip just for it. Yum!
Henry
We've been happy with things there. Portions are good sized. We like their hummus garden wrap, their lamb and tuna and their smoothies and juices. Their salads are generally abundant. Staff is usually friendly and they know the food.
Ted M
Food is fresh and tasty without salt overkill. We brought our German Shepherd and ate outside. They even brought her some water.
Yum Yum Pgh
A nice meal, filling but not too filling, and not too hard on the wallet! I think our meal and drink plus tax plus tip plus parking totaled $40.
