308 E South St Akron, OH 44311
“This little place is a gem! Friendly little mom and pop place with great food and reasonable prices. Sort of a bakery, grocery and restaurant all in one!
It is a little off the beaten path. I had the Falafel Sandwich and my husband had chicken shawarma. We shared the humoos and fresh pita everything was delicious! I highly recommend it if you like Middle Eastern food.” - Louann M. on Yelp
782 W Market St Akron, OH 44303
“Oh my. I love Aladdin's. The cauliflower appetizer is simply wonderful. (Get the hot sauce on the side. Give it a little shake before drizzling it over. It's terrific!)
The salads are excellent (and huge) and the wraps are all tasty as well. Chicken schwarma is perfect, and the garlic sauce divine. Great hummus, and love the creative little pita "pizzas." (Best enjoyed as a dine-in experience because with takeout, the toppings make the whole thing soggy. Still delicious but it doesn't allow for the crispy "crust" element.)” - Julie N. on Yelp
