“Middle Eastern Cafe with fresh, healthy choices and efficient service. We booked a large party for a work celebration and it was perfect. Everyone loved their food, and the vibe is quiet enough to carry on a conversation. The only caution is that parking can be tricky, so allow more time to find a spit (CH is repairing one of the parking garages).“
“Authentic Turkish food very well done! All foods ordered were savory with abundant portions for sharing or big appetites. Shepard salad and hummus highly recommended. The Doner was freshly prepared with the correct moistness complimented by the perfectly done rice. Stuffed eggplant was very flavorful. Turkish coffee was amazing. Service was very professional. Side note the cacık (Tzatziki) sauce and hot sauce were excellent!“
“The absolute best breakfast place to ever do it!!!! Every time I go any where else for breakfast, I think to myself “gosh, this would have been so much better if I just went to Frank’s”Seriously, between the staff and the food- you can tell just how much passion and love is in this little casual diner. All of the staff makes you feel so welcomed and loved every single time you go inside. I will forever be obsessed with Franks!!!!!Vegetarian options: Highly recommended doing the breakfast burrito and adding falafel.Their hot sauce is home made and some of the yummiest I've ever had in my whole life .“
“I absolutely loved my visit to Pita Potle. There is so much variety in their middle eastern cuisine and I absolutely loved everything. But I need to mention their mixed bowl was to die for and I could eat that every day for the rest of my life.Vegetarian options: The falafel is extremely crunchy and is so savory on the inside.“
“This place is really good. Belongs in a more upscale area. But glad it's here. Only thing is the hours. They're bab to begin with. Add in that I've gone there for food during there hours, to find the doors locked. With no explanation. Not being consistent isn't good for repeat customers.“
“Great food and drinks! I was visiting Cleveland from out of town and made sure to come here everyday of my trip. The atmosphere was amazing. The artistry embedded in every part of the building was so cozy and inspiring. I had so much fun drawing here!! Staff was lovely and helpful. I got a real sense of community here and I am so happy I visited!“
“We stopped in for a Saturday salad lunch, and the food was very flavorful. The grilled chicken was well seasoned, the mango cilantro dressing was spot on, and the tahini dressing was nice and thick. The 1970s/1980s soul music on the sound system doesn't seem to fit the style of the restaurant though.“
“Wonderful customer service. Basil made us feel welcome and comfortable, answered all our questions and offered Vic and I to try a little of their hot sauces to see what we liked best. We got the falafel bowl. Their falafel was good and crunchy, which I particularly liked. Portions were moderate size. We will definitely try some of their other dishes.“
“Really delicious food, classy atmosphere, and overall refreshing experience. I've been in the mood to try something different. I decided to try the sampler and it was a perfect way to try three different dishes. You get a basket of bread and dipping sauce so this could easily be enough for two people to share. I also ordered a side of falafel that was delicious, I loved them with the white sauce. I didn't receive a drink or dessert menu but they have a full bar and the server did ask if we had room for dessert.This was my first time visiting this area but I hope to come back soon and will definitely consider coming back here.“
“The Kabob house has been a welcome respite for my lunches in my work area.The owners provide a great falafel plate, with hummus and tabouli, topped with a pickle, for us that are vegetarian inclined ?They are welcoming and kind, and they have no problem adding additional dishes to your plate, such as the vegetarian Kabob or the cauliflower, cooked just right.If you're in the vicinity of the arcade on fifth, I would encourage you to stop by and give them a shot, you won't be disappointed.“
“I've dined in a few times and it's been wonderful and recently had 25 family members over and bought the food from Tarboosh. Everyone loved it and we have plant based, gluten free and picky eaters! The recommendations I was given were spot on and I got raves on the food.“

“This is a great gem. I got the Loubie beans which have the perfect amount of heat to them. I've had loubie other places which don't add a bit of heat. These are by far the BEST Loubie I've ever had!!! You have to try them!The beet root hummus was delicious.I also got a container of Labneh, which was delish.Great place for lunch. The gentleman who took care of me was helpful with my selections!“
“The market has everything you need , very clean and neat also the kitchen is so delicious has variety of Turkish food so yummy. I went two times in one week for breakfast they have open buffet option or you can order what you want. So far their food is the most authentic Turkish food I have ever eaten here in Cleveland . Also people who's working there are very nice and friendly I like the service there and definitely will visit this place again“
“Wonderful place.Food was delicious and cooked with warmth and love. Food tasted fresh. Can't wait to go back. People go and visit that place for good delicious meditarrean food.Vegetarian options: Lot of vegetarian optionParking: 1 hr free parking. Right where Mitchell's ice cream is. If you don't know where to park, call them and the owner will guide you on parking. That's what we did.. She was very patient with us. Don't go without trying their food.“
“My partner and I come here whenever we go on a date, and it's always been incredible. Our only hope is that this place never closes so we can always come back. Best Mediterranean food I've ever had! Get the Kibee Plate, you won't regret it.“
“We ordered a soup and grilled chicken platters along with quinoa, Israeli salad, grilled vegetables and sweet potato fries. The portion sizes were very generous, all fresh and absolutely delicious -and quite filling!! The owner was also very gracious to us. Highly recommended !!“
“I love Aladdins! And Sittoos. I was a long time Westsider and patronized Sittoos every Sunday. Now that I moved East, I patronize this Aladdins location often. I treated one of my friends to lunch as she had never tried Lebanese cuisine before this. She got the Cranberry Salad. It was beautiful and she said the chicken was well seasoned and perfectly cooked. I had the Flavor Savor Platter. It came out room temperature, yet the chicken, hummus,rice and salata were delicious. The beef Kafta was well seasoned but over cooked. As always, the garlic and hot sauce were amazing. We started with the fried cauliflower. It was well seasoned, crispy and delicious. The pita was soft and yummy as always. The olive oil added that umph. Next time I'll ask for a sprinkle of zaatar. I also had a tropical smoothie and hot mint tea. The strawberry cake was so light and not too sweet. Our server was super busy as she was handling multiple tables, but friendly and efficient.My only gripe was that there was another server sorting silverware at the empty table next to us. She was throwing it across the table and making so much noise. We couldn't talk over her. Before we could say something, the hostess who greeted us came from the back and signaled her back to the kitchen. I appreciate that the staff were professional about handling it.I love that Aladdins is local, family owned, healthy and elegant to dine in.“
“We ate here before the Browns game on Sunday. Staff was friendly, service was fast, and the seating area had plenty of seats available. No alcoholic beverages though if you're looking for that. They did an adjusted smaller menu to probably help move the crowd through quicker. I got a gyro and it was good. Good sized too. It came with a bag of chips for $12. A bit pricey, but not too bad for the downtown area. Not sure where you'd normally park since we parked a ways away to avoid the traffic on the way out. I'd definitely eat there again.Parking: Probably have to find a nearby parking garage or lot.“
“Came here for the first time today and Ms. Stella was an absolute QUUUUUEEN! She was so welcoming to me and my gay friend it’s lovely to know we are safe while snacking on falafel. First faygo friendly falafel place we have been to in forever! Honestly couldn’t have had a better experience! ?“
“For the price, this place rocks. I had the most homecooked style food that reminded me of my moms cooking. The beef was tender and sauce was delicious. The shawarma wrap did not dissapoint as well. Chicken was moist tasted great along with the garlic sauce and salad. Service was good and recommendations made hit the spot. Would definately go here again when in the area.“
“The bartenders and servers were excellent! The entire staff clearly is in a groove and support one another well. We had six dishes, between four of us, which was the perfect amount along with some beverages. Food quality and creativity was incredible. The atmosphere is contemporary yet comfortable. A bit loud but that is also part of the energy here. Prices are inline with the experience. Looking forward to our next visit!“
