Wonderful!

I’ve gone to Aladdin’s for 20 years (always as at least a vegetarian) and have never had a bad meal. Their vegan options are clearly marked and are plentiful. The meals are all very healthy, but check out the vegan desserts too (including baklava without butter and honey!)

Pros: Mujadara power salad , Superfood salad , Cauliflower wrap

Great food, clearly labeled

We love Aladdin's! We've tried three locations now and all were great! I love their fattoush salad, lentil soup and their hummus. Vegan items are clearly labeled. Service is always great and there is outdoor seating at the Mt Lebanon location.

Pros: Vegan items clearly marked, Parking nearby , Large servings

I love this place. The spicy cauliflower is so good I could eat it everyday!!

They have so many options for vegans. I honestly don’t know how they could improve.

my go-to for delivery

They are an extremely consistent option which is relatively inexpensive. I order delivery from them a couple of times a month and have yet to be disappointed. Love the hummus and spicy cauliflower.

Pros: Tasty, Fresh, Consistent

Ordered takeout; good experience

The falafel and hummus were very good. The menu clearly marks items that are vegetarian and/or vegan. Should tell the person you're vegan though or you might get yogurt sauce on your food.

The person who took my order was extremely accommodating and personally packed my order to make sure they didn't include the standard yogurt sauces on the side. I thought this was really cool.

Lots of good veg and vegan options, average food

There are limited places in Pittsburgh with a menu that offers various options for vegan eaters. Aladdin's is nice for a casual night out where options are available without having to ask the waiter/chef for a special meal. I've been a few times and they've always been friendly. I would rate the food as average--I go there after a long day when I don't have any desire to cook, but I can't say I make a special occasion of it. The lentil soup was very watery, the mujdara had good flavors, and the jasmine rice was overcooked. Didn't taste very fresh either. If you're looking for a quick bite with varied options, it's a good place. But don't expect gourmet cuisine. I would love to see them scale back on the huge menu and work more on quality, not quantity.

Pros: Good vegan options., Friendly., Quick / Convenient.

Cons: Not very fresh., Average food.

Average Food but above-average v-friendliness

Hi! I've eaten here a few times since moving to Pittsburgh. I've had the falafel-hummous wrap, lentil soup, and vegggie chili. I tend to rate Lebanese/Mediterranean restaurants on their falafel. I think it's a good base-system.

With that said, this place is very average. I assumed it would be going into it, as there are multiple locations so they try to cater to as many folks as possible. When I moved here, I wanted nothing more than to find a place with falafel as good as where I last lived. Sadly, this is not the place. It's not bad, it's just nothing to write home about. It will fill you up and not make you feel blah.

But! There is one fantastic plus with this chain: the menu labeling! They label the items for you. And they list ingredients! Can't go wrong there.

So, as far as omni places in town go, this is a great option: consistent food you'd expect with a chain, fast service, modest prices, and service has always been good.

Pros: modest price, good food, quick service

Good place for dinner with non-veg friends/family

Awesome vegetarian/vegan options abound, while omnivores can take their pick of well-prepared entrees too.

Pros: Healthy, Friendly staff, Inexpensive
