About us
Our story is one of family, flavor, and community.
Aladdin Restaurant was founded on a simple idea: food should be made with care and shared with others. Every dish we prepare reflects time-honored recipes, fresh ingredients, and the experience of cooking for family and friends. We aim to create a welcoming place where people can slow down, connect, and enjoy a meal together.

Our Story
Brothers Sam and Akram grew up around home-cooked meals made with tradition and hospitality at the center of the table. When they took ownership of Aladdin Restaurant, they carried those values with them — focusing on dishes rooted in familiarity, warmth, and shared experience.
They work closely in the kitchen each day, preparing meals the same way they would for family gatherings: no shortcuts, thoughtful seasoning, and attention to detail in every plate.
Community
We’re proud to be part of the West Reading community and grateful for the customers, families, and neighbors who support local businesses.
Family-Owned
We’re a family-run kitchen, working together every day to prepare meals with care and welcome guests like neighbors.
What Matters to Us
We believe that good food brings people together. Our menu is centered on fresh ingredients prepared daily, recipes that have been thoughtfully passed down, and warm, familiar flavors that feel comforting and inviting. Just as important is the atmosphere — a place where guests are welcomed like neighbors and can enjoy a meal at their own pace. Whether you’re joining us for a casual lunch, dinner with family, or a gathering with friends, we hope your experience feels relaxed, genuine, and enjoyable.
