I love this place!  4 Star Rating - Very good

By lindsay r.

I go here all the time and I never get tired of it! I can always enjoy a fresh salad or taboulii or hummus. Sometimes i get the chicken kabob with fresh garlic spread!!! What time is it? I want to go now !!!! Love the place! Would take any friend who wants to experience the food that mesopotamia is famous for, dont you know the middle easterns were the ones who thrived during the begining of time. They were able to strive due to thier diet of whole grains and fresh vegetables....
Think about it! Thats why I started going there!

At Least I Tried It  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

By Jennifer W. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 116

I went to Aladdin Cafe because I never have tried Middle Eastern food. I tried it and I did not like it at all. It was spicy and a tart flavor. It was horrible, but I guess I am so used to American, Italian, and Chinese food that I just am not used to the taste. But if you like Middle Eastern food then I would go because the staff was really friendly and the atmosphere was really nice.

Good gyros  4 Star Rating - Very good

Aladdin has the best gyros I've found in San Diego, as well as falafel and other standard Mediterranean dishes. The service is efficient but not terribly friendly, and the prices are a little steep, but the ambiance is nice.

I eat at this restaurant quite often. It's actually called Aladdin Mediterranean Cafe. Their Mediterranean salad is REALLY good. I enjoy their brick oven pizzas, their gyro plates and sandwiches. Everything is fresh and made to order.

This review is actually for the Hillcrest Location  4 Star Rating - Very good

By T S.

It's on Cleveland Ave near Ralphs/Trader Joe's and it's simply wonderful! I've been going there for about 5 yrs! The owner is personable and makes it a point to introduce himself and speak to customers. The cook (George) is amazing and makes the best chicken I've ever tasted in my life! The hummus is wonderful and the pita is fresh and made on site. If you haven't been here you must try it out! It's fresh and healthy and delicious!
