Reviews for Aladdin's Eatery Clintonville in Columbus, OH
I really want to like this place but I just leave frustrated every time. The menu is vague and confusing, despite its length. I... never know exactly what's going to arrive at the table (although I must admit it's always tasty.) Prices are high, portions aregenerally small, and service is usually bad. They don't even have labels on the cakes in their pastry case, which I find atelling sign - thoughtfulness is not a guiding principle here, even though the sparse aesthetic and wholesomeness of the menuseem intended to suggest that it is. Also, why have they still not reopened the back door so guests don't have to walk all theway around the bbq joint next door?? It's very unwelcoming. Read more
A lot on my plate. Whatever a Lebanese salad is, I'm in love.
Great service and accurate order, amazing food, and great location. Everything in my order was perfect and very well organized,... as was the staff when I came in to pick up. Very happy with this place ???? Highly recommended. Make sure to park in the side(North) and go in the main street door. Read more
Empty restaurant on a wed evening and it took 45 minutes for our entrees to come out. Specifically asked if the tea was... sweetened, they say no, but was served some cheap sweet fountain drink like tea. Food tasted good, but I'll stick to Lavash. Read more
The first thing I had to do after 22 years away from Columbus was to stop here and get a chicken salad pita wrap. It was as good... as I remembered and made me miss living here even more. This sandwich is in my top 5 list of the best things I've evereaten--just delicious! This restaurant can't be beat. Columbus is so lucky to have this gem. Read more
I absolutely love the hummus here! The spicy cauliflower and raspberry green tea are also delicious. So many vegan, vegetarian... and gluten free options too. Read more
Aladdin?s is ridiculously expensive, prices are almost double/triple what they should be. Quantities are very small. Paid 55$... for a few appetizers. Food is not really authentic, their take on Sfiha (10$?!), Fatayer and fattouch is terrible (from aLebanese person?s perspective). The only good thing is that the ingredients are fresh but there definitely is a lot of room forimprovement. Aladdin?s basically butchers Lebanese cuisine and definitely does not represent it, wouldn?t recommend it Read more
I have ate here and picked up orders for door dash to and on all occasions the staff was awesome!!!! When I picked up my order... to deliver it was still being prepared and they were super sweet offered me something to drink with no charge and ask me how myday was. So a week later I stopped in for cheesecake and it was delicious. I the pumpkin, salt Carmel and pistachio all 3delicious ???? you definitely got this spot out. Read more
