**Food:** - **Vegan Hummus Pita with Hot Sauce:** Wow! We were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed the creamy hot sauce paired with the hummus. It was a fantastic combination with just a hint of spice. - **Vegan Baba Ghanouj:** They generously offered this to us for free, which we had never encountered before. It was creamy and smoky, and while it was excellent, we personally preferred the hummus and hot sauce. - **Vegan Hummus Garden Rolls:** These were slightly roasted, giving them a nice crispness. Fresh and full of flavor, they paired beautifully with the hot sauce, making them even more delicious. - **Vegan Loubie Plate:** This dish featured a wonderful mix of beans, tomatoes, garlic, rice, and vermicelli. Admittedly, I'm not a big fan of rice, but this was so well flavored that I found myself wanting more! It was vibrant and packed with flavor. - **Vegan Apple Spicy Bar:** We were too stuffed to enjoy this at the restaurant, so we took it to go. We still need to try it! **Service:** Wow! As someone who has worked as a waitress and bartender, I was impressed by their excellent service. They made us feel very welcome while maintaining a professional atmosphere. Our waitress, along with others who seemed to check on the customers, were prompt, friendly, and attentive to our needs. I don't think we've ever experienced better service, even in upscale restaurants. They even offered us extra pita and to-go containers without us having to ask! **Parking:** The restaurant is located in a shopping center, which has limited parking. I can imagine it gets busy on weekends, but we had no issues finding a spot when we went on a Friday at 5 PM. **Cleanliness:** Upon entering, there are stands to one side and tables to the other, along with a dessert case. Our table was very clean, and the menus looked brand new. When our food arrived, the plates were actually shiny! The restrooms were located at the back of the dining area. The men's was visible, and the women's was to the left near the kitchen. Both my partner and I were impressed by the cleanliness of the restrooms. We hope they consider moving towards gender-neutral facilities in the future. Overall, we had an amazing experience at Aladdin's and look forward to our next visit!

The vegan superfood salad was absolutely worth it. It was packed with fresh flavors and nutrients. The menu offered several vegan options, and you can find the details of the ingredients in the salad on their website. I give it 5 stars! This is an update to my previous review from February 16, 2020.

So many options to choose from! Food was very tasty and delicious. Excellent customer service!
