Nice restaurant, good place to sit and look at the Erie Canal. Menu is labeled well with lots of items that are naturally vegan or can be modified!

Love the cozy atmosphere in winter with heated patio and open patio in summer right in shoelace in pittsford village. My daughters also worked here for many years. Yummy!

Love this canal side spot, always good food and service. Highly recommend the Chicklaki.
Great food and the view is beautiful. Our server Courtney was absolutely fantastic and so friendly. She definitely make Soto feel likes she’s your friend.

The chicken meal was super overpriced and wasn't as tasty as I expected.

Ate last evening at the Pittsford location. Service and atmosphere are great. Good portions were poor. Ordered Moussaka which comes with a side salad. The salad was enormous and dwarfed the portion of Moussaka which were both piled on the same plate. The Moussaka was warm not hot as well. Salad should be on the side not sharing the same plate. This was a birthday dinner and we likely won't return.
Worst managed restaurant I have ever been to. I wouldn’t go again if I was paid to. We would have loved to dine here, put our names in for a table that could take four plus a dog. Was told three different things by the (poorly trained) hostess and two managers. “Table on porch can take dogs. People leaving soon” “Two tables can take dogs. Different table ready soon.” “So sorry we gave that table to a couple (without a dog).” Only one table can take dogs people aren’t finished yet.” After enough BS to make a large salad, and almost and hour and a half we left to make a sandwich of our own.” This restaurant stinks.
Aladdin's Natural Eatery exceeded my expectations in many ways. Initially, I had reservations about dining at a "Greek" restaurant, given the common challenges of subpar quality and the use of inexpensive ingredients. However, our group sampled a diverse array of dishes, all of which surpassed our expectations. The portions were generous enough to satisfy without overwhelming, and the menu offered a thoughtful selection of authentic Greek-inspired dishes. Most notably, the ingredients were fresh and flavorful, leaving no room for complaint regarding the food itself.
The service was attentive and friendly, enhancing the overall experience. However, the atmosphere left something to be desired, as the lackluster interior lacked any distinctive charm. Were it not for its prime location along the canal, the dull ambiance might have been more apparent.
In conclusion, while not perfect, Aladdin's offers a solid dining experience with fresh, delicious options. For those craving Greek cuisine or simply a well-prepared meal, I would recommend giving this restaurant a try.

Normally we really like Aladdin’s however my last take out order really lacked luster. I ordered the Chiklaki with chicken and the tomatoes were mushy, no pita included, chicken was dried out. Not a usual experience. So many people standing around front end when I came in and didn’t get greeted until about 5 minutes later. Not being picky, but it doesn’t take much to say hello to someone rather than just talk amongst each other.

This place has gone SO FAR downhill it is so disappointing! Used to love coming here. Tonight we ate here and it was awful. Our waiter clearly had an attitude after we didn’t order drinks or apps, I guess he figured it would affect his tip. Too bad what really affected his tip was his horrible service. Arrogant attitude the whole time. Didn’t bring us extra napkins until we asked a 3rd time. My food was so bad. Gyro pita was 90% stuffed with Tomatos and barely any gyro meat. The meat itself was as dry as shoe leather. I asked for no onions but it came loaded with onions. They forgot to put dressing on my salad. I had exactly one olive on my Greek salad. Don’t be fooled by the cute setting on the water, this once nice established is now a major disappointment. Poor food and poor service. I won’t be back.

Do NOT get the Verdura pasta, literally the most disgusting thing i’ve ever eaten in my life. The baklava was okay but not great. The service was excellent and our waitress was very sweet. The restaurant is in a nice location, very pretty looking over the water. My sister’s tortellini was okay, not great and a bit overcooked, but the vodka sauce differs from the other location and is not as good, but okay.
