Very close to UConn campus. I ordered a pita shawarma which was really good. The chicken was cut up in big pieces though. The baklawa was really good and very authentic.

Little Aladdin at UConn is a Lebanese oasis amidst the vibrant campus life. Stepping inside feels like entering a cozy corner of Beirut, with inviting aromas wafting from the kitchen and warm hospitality greeting you at every turn.The menu is a celebration of Lebanese flavors, offering a tantalizing selection of traditional dishes that capture the essence of the Mediterranean. From savory chicken shawarma's to hearty mains, each dish is a masterpiece of taste and texture, meticulously prepared to perfection.The rice and fries are to die for my personal favorite is the chicken and fried cauliflower. Babaganoush, falafel and tabbouleh is one of the best in CT. You did not visit UConn if you didn’t grab a bite here.Ignore the chain restaurants and eat like a local husky.Dietary restrictions: Vegan, Vegetarian, gluten free

A decent place to get your hit of shawarma, falafels, kebabs, and more. We stopped in here looking for lunch and attracted by the enticing aromas of grilled foods. Service is take-out but they do have seating available for dining-in. The proprietors were very nice and friendly, happy to explain their menu and what items are vegetarian, vegan, or not. I had their mixed shawarma (chicken and beef) over rice, drizzled with tahini sauce - it was delicious with hints of smokiness. Two of my daughters had the chicken shawarma wrap with fries and enjoyed them very much; my other daughter had their falafel platter which were quite good; and my wife had their "Vegan Bomb" wrap which she said was excellent, especially the fried eggplant and cauliflower that comprised it. All in all, a tasty and good value place for a quick and convenient bite.
