While their Shawarma Sandwich shines, it's their Lamb Shank that steals the show. It's no surprise this dish is their strong suit. Perfectly seasoned and pairs beautifully with their aromatic spices.

If you're a fan of lamb, look no further than Aladdin's Houston. Their Lamb Shank is the epitome of Middle Eastern comfort food, falling-off-the-bone tender and bursting with rich flavors.

Everyone talks about the amazing brick oven baked pita bread, kabobs, and the variety of hummus(pictured). Try the Chicken Meatballs dish! The gravy-like stew was delicious. Just ask for a sample!

They have this good deal 1 meat + 3 sides for $12.99 🙌🏼 The food is great in here! Lamb shank and beef kebab are my best options 👌🏼

Aladdin Mediterranean Cuisine serves comfort food for a slightly more continental crowd, one who craves hummus and pita bread with a chicken shawarma sandwich. It's also BYOB! Read more

The many options at Aladdin's make this a standby place for me. I love that I can call ahead with my order and it's done correctly

Aladdin's Houston is a wonderful spot for those looking to experience Middle Eastern flavors at their finest. The Lamb Shank, their strong hold, lived up to its reputation.
James R.September 9, 2023
Nice layout, food good but over priced and pretentious. Staff helpful but not engaging and overall the restaurant assumed that because of the price it was a top class venue.

 The BEST Mediterranean in the city! Served cafeteria style, you meander down the line and pick from the freshest hummus, salads, and meats in all of Houston. Don’t pass up the free bread!

The Fresh Salads, especially the Tabuli and Greek Salad, were refreshing and served as a lovely complement to the hearty entrees. The ingredients were clearly fresh, and the salads were well-seasoned.

Cafeteria-style, super friendly staff, pitas hot out of their giant oven, cheap, shawarma that's awesome and BYOB. Did we mention the fresh made pitas? Yeah, those are the best ever. [Eater 38 Member]

Chicken kebabs- they're moist with a nice char, the bread is some of the best at a Mediterranean restaurant in Houston

Go in off peak times to fully enjoy the food! Lamb shank is to die for, as well as the fresh made hummus and pitas.

Their Tabouli salad is the best I've ever had. Fresh, tangy, and loaded with herbs – it's a taste of the Mediterranean in every bite.
Melissa RayAugust 30, 2017
I could live off of the different varieties of hummus and the delicious pita bread that they make daily.

The Chipotle Chicken Kabob at Aladdin's is a spicy sensation that never disappoints. A must-try for all spice lovers!

Good beyond-the-burger place for families. Adjustable menu for kids (chicken, rice, and veggies) without sacrificing the adult palate. Great bread!
