“Recently we had out of town guests, and they raved about the food particularly the seafood options. The 2 different meals they had at the restaurant were both exemplary and I was very proud to tell them we eat there often. We first ordered our meal for takeout and then we went to the dining room for the second meal. Thank you for the many years of continued dining excellence.“

“My visit was quiet, the food was wonderful and the service excellent. I had mixed lamb and chicken kebabs that were wonderful and served with rice and a small bit of salad. Excellent choice if you want to be full but not bloated and love delicious food.“

“First time ordering at a halal joint outside of NYC and was not disappointed. Beef Schwarma is mouth watering. Appreciated an extra slice of pita for my picky child that was given on the house too!“

“First time eating at this food truck at the Freedom Farms festive and it was delicious! The owner explained that they have restaurants in Lawrenceville and Cranberry in addition to the food truck. Looking forward to eating from this vendor again. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious. Everything I have eaten there has been absolutely perfect. I highly recommend the lentil soup, as I've never had better. The falafel is great, too. As for entrees, you really can't go wrong. Shawarma, salads, vegetarian, they have something for everyone. The baklava is a tasty end to a meal, too.
The staff is very friendly and eager to please.
Been there several times and I will be back.“

“best food in the food court!“

“Loved everything about it... The food was amazing, and a special drink from the bartender was one of the best I've ever had. The owner came out and introduced himself... And we enjoyed heavenly tiramisu for dessert. All in all a lovely, lovely experience.“

“Amazing! I love Delanie’s they make fantastic coffee. I always get an iced latte with oat milk and it’s perfect every time. The coffee is always consistent it tastes and looks the same no matter who makes it or how busy they are, which is extremely important to me. The staff is super friendly, the atmosphere is great for working or hanging out, and best of all, they’re dog-friendly!“

“Amazing Mediterranean food in Squirrel Hill! The waiter is always so nice and welcoming, which makes me want to come back here often. The food is delicious, portions are generous, and price is reasonable. Thank you Mediterranean Grill for a yummy meal always! ☺️“

“We had a wonderful dinner tonight! And enough left for lunch tomorrow.“

“I placed a takeout order at the Fox Chapel (Pittsburgh) location on 3/29, around 5pm. I live in SE Virginia and my son’s father lives in Aspinwall, we were meeting 1/2 way in Maryland for spring break so I asked him if he’d pick up and take out order for me at the FC restaurant, and bring it with him and our son. (Nothing in my area compares to Aladdin’s!!). When I called, an amazing woman answered the phone, I asked ONLY if they could put the sauce on the side for my Shawarma so it wasn’t soggy 8 hours later when I’d be home to eat! Without second thought, she offered to make both of the Shawarma’s “deconstructed” with everything separate so I could “build” the wraps myself!! I also ordered the Dawali! When my ex handed me the bag and went to the cooler to get my food, I noticed what the crew had done…. They put everything in separate takeout containers and even wrote instructions on the Dawali container for me to heat, when I got home!! Everything was separate and the amount of extra time that was spent on the order was above and beyond!! It may seem simple, but for them to take the time and effort to make sure my food was just as good as it would have been if I ate in the store was really refreshing!! So THANK YOU to the Fox Chapel location for packing my order with such attention and my ex will be bringing a cooler with Shawarma’s and Diwali’s each time we meet in Maryland!!!“

“This restaurant is a delightful surprise. The service and food is phenomenal. Definitely the place to eat if you are looking for great ambience, delicious food, and a relaxing atmosphere. Five stars hands down.“

“We always visit Aladdin when we come up to see my son and his fiance in Lebo. The food is fresh and well prepared at a fair price. Mike was our server and he warmed up nicely after a bit with a funny milk story. Thanks to all the staff who make every visit special.“

“The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great!!!“

“These guys are great! Their food is absolutely delicious, the gyros are gigantic and they are very pleasant to deal with. You definitely want to try them out!“

“love they food“

“While spending a weekend away in Pittsburgh, we were looking for something unique and easy on our last night in town. We found Ephesus via Google and went for it! The lamb kebab pizza was great! Had an order of falafel too, but didn't get a picture of that! Would recommend for any foodie that is looking for some shawarma or just grabbing a slice!“

“It was a pleasure working with Judah and his stuff. The food was good the portions was large the service was awesome. Thanks a lot !“

“The hospitality was impeccable. I felt so welcomed and appreciated. The staff were uncommonly kind and concerned. The grape leaves were delicious. It is a small space but enough room pairs or a quad. But the hospitality was enough to make me eager to return.“

“We loved our food and the service was friendly I hope to come back“

“Really nice place for a good time and tasty food! I am actually quite impressed with how tasty the food was here. This place serves a variety of food items, from American burgers to Middle Eastern wraps. It seems like they are best known for their saj, so that's what I ordered. I tried the Arabic chicken shawarma saj with French fries.

It was delicious! The price was quite fair for the decently large portion. The chicken was cooked well and had nice spices with it. There was a sauce to put it all together. It was creamy and truly delicious. Some nice pickles for crunch, and the wrap itself was also pretty good. Very nice!

The French fries were kind of mediocre. They didn't have a ton of flavor to them and weren't that crispy. I would have probably been fine without them, or if I could, would have traded them for another side.

All in all, the main course (the saj) was delicious! I definitely recommend this place for some cheap food and a nice experience.

“I wasn't sure what to expect from a restaurant in Walmart, and I was pleasantly surprised! Ordered a chicken platter, the serving was generous, the chicken delicious, especially with the addition of the cucumber salad and the white & green sauce. My only complaint....seems the soda machine isn't in use, so we were left with just canned/bottled drunks. Even so, I'd eat here again!“

“Great Pizza, can’t fault the service. Queue was 10 people deep but took a few minutes, they have mastered the service!

The pizza was great, pepperoni was perfect and a little spicy. The white pizza was great too. Great snack after walking round the city!“

“Here from Texas, been in Pittsburgh since Thursday. I wish we would have found it sooner, would have been here everyday. The staff is very nice, atmosphere calm with street view, everything fresh, cooked to order. If we ever visit Pittsburgh again, we will definitely come back.“

“Wild Rosemary was warm and wonderful. The food was fantastic and fellowship with the table introduces a sense of community. Breaking bread with your neighbor from the down the street while sipping wine warms your heart. We had so much fun sharing laughs and soaking up red sauce with homemade bread. If you don’t make this your next stop, you’re making a mistake.“

“So glad to have a Mike & Tony’s in the neighborhood! Consistently delicious gyros and tasty apps. We love the spinach artichoke dip and the Gyro salad. The happy hour deals can’t be beat and they always have great beers on tap. This place has a family friendly atmosphere too if you want to take the kiddos.“

“I love a good established dive in any city, and Mike & Tony’s is no exception.

This is a no-nonsense, counter-service, cash-only joint that slings some of the heftiest, tastiest gyros I’ve ever had.

And can we talk about the fries? If my eyes don’t deceive me, they double-fry them—crisp, golden brown on the outside, with that deep, savory flavor that can only come from a fryer that’s seen some things. Has the oil been changed this decade? Who’s to say—but I mean that in the best possible way.

If you find yourself in downtown Pittsburgh, don’t miss this place. BRING CASH. You won’t need much—prices are super reasonable, and the portions are more than generous.“

“I had no problems with my meatball/bacon pizza and Italian hoagie. Everything tasted good. The hoagie had a lot of meat on it. I’m glad I finally tried them after all these years. Larry & Carol's Pizza“

“Love the gyros, prices are very reasonable, but I hate that its cash only. They have an ATM in the store which is very convenient, but having to pay a fee to get cash is a pain.. Store has been the same vibes every since they opened, you just can't dine in anymore. All in all, definitely worth it.“

“Over Eden hosted an incredible surprise 30th birthday party for me last night. The food and drinks were incredible and so reasonably priced for the amazing atmosphere that was provided. Our server Cody was so attentive and friendly, patiently took photos and made sure all of our guests needs were met. I tried tastes of the Cajun fries, artichoke spinach dip with pita, calamari and friend shrimp (LOVED the shrimp so fresh), pierogis (if you get angry when ordering them at other restaurants and being handed mrs ts these are perfect home made pillows for you), and the Korean short rib. This was the best birthday of my life and highly attributed by this venue and their staff.“
