Aladdins has been one of my favorite restaurants for so many years. I remember going there with my mother when I was much younger. This may sound silly, but I purposely moved in to an apartment right near the restaurant. It wasn't the sole reason, but the restaurant had something to do with the location. Aladdins is my "take out". I don't eat fast food, so this is what I order out. They offer tons of delicious Middle Eastern dishes, and so many vegetarian/vegan choices. My personal favorite is the vegetarian combo which has hummos, falaffel, tabouli, baba ganouj and dewali. Unfortunately, last month they raised their prices, but not by too much. There is nothing over eleven dollars on the menu. I urge you to make a trip sometime, it is worth it. The Cedar Fairmount location I've heard is the one that all the other Aladdins locations try to model themselves after.
