2005-06-15 18:10:56 I noticed a few review sites have pitiful reviews of the place. It looks like a systematic slander, not actual bad experences to me. —FarMcKon
2006-01-04 21:47:31 I love this place. The food is good, and during summer the balcony is a great place to people watch. —JohnGormly
2006-01-05 13:57:15 I've never had a bad experience at Aladdin's. Good food, and the location of the Pittsford restaurant is great for a post-dinner walk along the canal. —PatrickLewis
2006-01-25 02:53:20 Hi. Since when is Aladdin part of Greek mythology? Dde —JohnPapdopoulos
2006-01-25 10:27:00 I really like Aladdin's... great food for not a lot of money! —JcPop
2006-01-25 19:17:48 Aladdins has many healthy and tasty choices. Definitely kid friendly. Love the moussaka! —LindaMarie
2006-05-25 21:29:07 Great place to eat. I first tried humos and falafel as appitisers there. The Moussaka is really good for an entrée if youre an omnivoir. —RickUrwin
2006-06-23 09:48:37 Absolutely the best for healthy, delicious food at incredibly affordable prices. Try the soups - Lenchili and Gazpacho in particular are delicious and a bargain; also give the Fruit and Nut salad ($4.95) a shot. Portions are generous, servers are attentive, and atmosphere (especially at the Pittsford location) is superb. Wonderful place. —GreenBrenana
2006-08-30 08:55:20 Good food. Fair prices. —AdamDewitz
2006-08-31 12:15:05 Aladdins is a must when my family comes to visit. The falafal is the best in the city and my friend from Italy thinks they have the best pasta. —EllenKelsey
2006-10-20 17:14:34 Ditto on the pasta— the pasta pignoli with chicken is really yummy. The balcony at the Monroe Ave location is great for dining al fresco (when weather permits), just mind the bees. —CatherineConnolly
2006-10-21 08:25:26 I've gone to the Monroe location about 5 times, and I always get the chicken kabob pita /w their sauce becuase it's so darn good. —TravisOwens
2006-11-15 23:11:29 Everything I've had on the menu is great. I especially enjoy their gazpacho in the summer. As for any differences between location, I think I actually prefer the Monroe location better. I've only been to the Pittsford location once, but when I did go there the waiter was hard to track down and the food took a very long time to come. I've not had either of those problems at the Monroe location, but again, I've only been to the Pittsford location once. —StevenDibelius
2006-11-25 11:25:00 I'd go back just for the baklava! The spanakopita was excellent as well. —AdrienneDahler
2006-12-13 12:14:25 Great place for something different to eat. I recommend the chicklaki plate, topped off with some baklava. —JohnBarry
2007-02-05 09:06:44 Rochester, I beg of you, Stop eating here. The food is always so bad and overpriced. I've never had anything good here, get real mediterrian fare for the same price across the street at Oasis. —NjTourist
2007-02-05 10:37:51 Aladdin's is a great spot if you're in the mood for a salad. Their greek dressing is among the best in town, and I have always found the veggies to be very fresh. Their kebab pita is tasty, and a steal at $5. The Pittsford location has Rohrbachs Scotch Ale on draught. —EastSideStephen
2007-03-23 08:32:10 I can't stand the monroe ave location of this restaurant. It always smells inside. The Schoen Place one has a nice atmosphere and good food. —KimBee
2007-03-23 12:57:17 That's vague. It smells foul? It smells good, but its too strong? —RichardSarkis
2007-03-23 18:38:13 Sorry, this is the only way I know how to put it: Aladdins on Monroe smells like feet. Dirty feet. Pretty nasty. The one in Schoen Place does not smell like feet. —KimBee
2007-03-23 23:59:34 Well observed, Kimbee! But in fairness, it's just the entryway the smells like feet. Luckily, Oasis is across the street and a million times better (not even taking foot odor into account). —WegmansFiend
2007-04-12 12:44:00 I'll pass along the "foot odor" issue to the owners, there's no reason for that. —RichardSarkis
2007-05-11 00:13:38 Mmm. Delicious goodness. I have very limited exposure to Greek food so I am not sure where it ranks on the 'authenticity' scale. However, the pitas are always fresh and tasty. They are more than willing to make adjustments (I get mine light on dressing/feta). In general, I refuse to eat salads but yet I seek out their Chicklaki plate in the summer (probably because it is more chicken and less salad).
Definitely one of my favourite places to dine in in Rochester! —OneLove
2007-07-21 09:32:07 Aladdin's is cheap! Order a pita or salad and an appetizer and your bill might be around $20 for 2 people. I have never had luck with their soup or chili-too cold and pretty bland. I also wish they would slice their vegetables smaller so that a pita can be eaten like a pita and not a salad. Overall, I enjoy my visits. —ElaineRobinson
2007-08-16 18:49:06 LOVE Aladdins. Good food. Good service. Fresh ingredients. Delightful vegan and vegetarian fare with a mediterranean twist. Their hummus is some of the best I've tasted at a restaurant and their homemade lemonade is unrivaled. —KaeLynRich
2007-09-13 22:48:13 I love this place, especially that hot little number Ashley Sanderl. —IanLinenfelser
2007-11-12 19:52:10 Its an okay and tired concept at best. —TimothyKinn
