Aladdin Restaurant

I've been going to this restaurant for about eighteen years now and I can honestly say its my favourite place to eat. Even my dad who is a ‘steak pie and chips with a pint of beer' man enjoys this unique food. My advice is to have lots of starters and share them with the company. The salads are great and try the lamb shawarma, which is grilled marinated slices of shoulder of lamb and not mince meat. I used to clean the carpets there and can say that it the only restaurant I've gone back to after I've seen the kitchen. This one was spotless.

I've been a few times, and never leave unsatisfied. A great range of Lebanese/Syrian food, with a good range for veggies. Consider a DIY meze, if you visit - £10-15 a head will see you groaning under the weight of food that you consume. The baba ganoush is absolutely sublime, and the other dishes aren't far behind.

The BYO policy is great for keeping the cost of a visit down, whilst the nearby off licence ensures that this presents no problems for diners. The service is friendly and attentive, whilst the location (South Manchester) ensures that a broad range of people turn up. All in all, highly recommended.
