I LOVE this little cafe! From the always pleasant waiting staff to the amazing food, it's my family's favorite spot for lunch and dinner.
This most recent time, we walked in and were immediately greeted by the two, ever present waiters before being seated. The cafe is very clean and features Mediterranean music. We ordered the large hummus with fresh pita bread and the spanakopita. The hummus is absolute perfection and every dish we ordered was beautifully presented. The Spanakopita! Hands down the best I've tasted: super crispy pastry on the outside and delicious feta and spinach inside with a light creamy sauce for dipping.
For entrees, we ordered the to-die-for kabob plates: two chicken kabob orders and a single mixed plate that comes with lamb and chicken kabobs. For our sides we had a Greek salad and fries. For a place that does not need to have great fries, these fries went above and beyond! They are crinkle cut and seasoned to perfection, while crispy and light. The Greek salad was also fresh and was very refreshing.
I cannot overstate how moist and flavorful the chicken is at this cafe. It is definitely a must try. I would've taken pictures but the entrees mysteriously vanished before I could get a good shot!
Even though I'm Mexican, not Mediterranean myself, these flavors taste like home. I have no doubt in my mind that the kitchen staff pours their hearts into every dish they make. If you love good food, you need to try it--specifically the spanakopita, the hummus, and the chicken kabob with the turmeric rice, all of which cannot go wrong and you will love.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Regina H.Burleson, TX01Mar 12, 2024
Been a patron of this hidden gem of a restaurant for several years. The food, service and staff are always top notch!

What needs to be said? When you can perfect hummus and tabouli like this, there is nothing to complain about. This is such a hole in the wall, local spot and it is nice seeing it this way.
What a blessing to have Aladdin in our Burleson community!Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Monica N.Dallas, TX23318Jan 8, 2024
Great restaurant we discovered behind our parents house. It's a new place and it is a hole in the wall spot, but those are the best!! We ordered lamb and chicken kabob plates, which were superb. The meats are seasoned very well!! The hummus and baba ganoush were very good as well.
Service was great, but I will disclose that we ordered takeout. Even so, staff is very friendly and helpful. They took my order over the phone and it was ready within 20 mins.
If you guys don't want to drive all the way to Arlington for some good kabob plates, this is an EXCELLENT place to try!!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Apr 19, 2024
This place is on a corner in an unexpected spot, but turned out better than we thought. What Aladdin Cafe may be missing in ambiance, they make up for in authenticity, freshness and flavor of their food. We had a large group and reserved a table in advance. They had it all set for us and ready with their delicious mint tea in pots on the table. The food came out pretty quickly, and was all fresh and delicious...servings were generous...we ordered too much food! Lots of takeout orders were being picked up and they also do catering, which, if it's anything like our experience I imagine would be really good!

Stopped in Aladdin cafe to get a light but good lunch with my wife and a friend. I've driven by this place a lot but finally stopped in. Not the most appealing place on the outside or inside but it gives a nice homey vibe and ambiance. You can tell they have been in business for a while as the building is a bit ran down. The service was good, my Haria soup and my wife lentil soup came out quickly after ordering. The kabobs were cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. It was a good portion size of rice that was very tasty and well seasoned as well. Food was great, portions are perfect especially for those prices. Would recommend you stop in try it out.

Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Nov 11, 2023Previous reviewAlladin cafe is one of our favorite places. The food is fresh and tastes wonderful. The people who work here are always the best! We do both take away orders and dinning in, depending on our needs. You will often see families dining here and it is great for businesses lunches. Dining room can sometimes get chilly so if you run cool bring a sweater.

Customer service here is phenomenal. The reviews on Yelp are real!
We started off with a larger pot of coffee. It was very tasteful, fresh and enjoyable!
We then ordered a sampler with a little bit of this and a little bit of that!
We were able to try the boubagonoush *spell check*, Mixed Grill Platehummus (yes, warm Pitas were included), salad, stuffed grape leaves, lamb kabob, chicken swarma and rice!
Honorable mention : everything was remarkable, but the salad and the hummus are the stars of the show.
Also, the bathrooms were very tidy! I will be back!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jul 29, 2023
This place is a little hidden gem that you could easily miss ... but should not!
Went with a friend who was craving Indian cuisine after a tiring day of medical procedures. First surprise was when he pulled into a small strip center facing Aladdin's.
Everything was incredibly fresh, especially the tabouli!!
I had a gyro and my friend had a falafel sandwich, soooo much yummy food!!
Anxious to go back for another visit in the near future!!!Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - 128154323Feb 28, 2023
Wooooweee! This place came highly recommended and even though they are only about a mile from my house, I barely had the opportunity to try it out. I'm upset it took me so long!
From the moment I set foot in to the moment I walked out the door, I have never been more happy with food or service.
I came in at 3 pm so neither lunch or dinner. Only one other couple eating and was immediately told to choose my seat and my drink order was taken along with my menu. I had seen the menu prior and had my mind already made on what I wanted.
Turkish coffee - I love Turkish coffee and this one didn't disappoint. Thick, rich, delicious goodness! No sugar need.
Hummus w/ pita bread - flavorful hummus and the hottest dang pita bread
Tabouli salad - the richness of the oil, the freshness of the parsley and tomatoes, and the fresh lemon slice was just the most balanced perfection.
Mixed grill (chicken, lamb, kafta kabob) - I have never hada more juicy kafta kabob. The pieces of parsley, the spices, geeez! I couldn't get over how wonderful it was and kafta isn't my favorite kabob. The chicken, oh my, so incredibly juice and tender and the char from the grill. Woooow!
Now aside from the food, the service was freaking outstanding. I didn't catch names but two helped me and the were both the best. Friendly, helpful, the smiles, I'm like man, why had I not been here yet?
The portions were large and filling so I had some to go. Heating them up for dinner, ny kitchen smelled amazing.
Check this place out! Run! Goooo! I'm a sucker for good service and good food but this usually hard to find but NOT HERE!!
Can't wait to go back because the fried cauliflower is next on the list!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
