We had a wonderful experience at Aleppo! The Syrian cuisine was a delightful journey for our taste buds. The shawarma plate was piled high with flavorful meat and delicious accompaniments, and the kofta wrap was a savory delight. The pistachio ice cream cake was an absolute dream - a perfect blend of nutty and sweet. Our waitresses, Isabella and Val, were incredibly friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!

Robert is a top notch professional. He is super personable and knew the menu well, helping us decide what to order. The food here is excellent and worth the price. The restaurant is very clean yet maintains a casual atmosphere. I would definitely dine here again. I recommend the hummus and the lamb dishes.

I liked service Isabel Vega. Excellent customer service brought food out on time. Ontop of being excellent customer service the food was amazing never tasted food with so much flavor. Overall would definitely come back to this establishment and recommend it to other.

I had a wonderful experience at Aleppo's Kitchen! The coffee was excellent--rich and flavorful, just the way I like it. The baklava was perfect; not too sweet, which made it even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is lovely and the place is spotlessly clean. Our server, Val, was absolutely amazing--friendly, attentive, and made our visit even better. Highly recommend this spot for great coffee, delicious desserts, and top-notch service!

Isabelle * fastidious service * excellent music * delightful decor * cuisine very fine * immaculate dining area and Kitchen

Really nice place! I selected Aleppo because my guest is a vegetarian. Lots of options on the menu for both of us. Maybe Aleppo is Syrian but it advertises as Mediterranean. Same thing I guess. Really nice looking building. We sat inside and enjoyed the view looking out the wall of glass. My guest had their Falafel Lavash Wrap and loved it. Looked good to me too. I think Med food uses a little more yogurt than mayo, which more people should do in my opinion. Make a note of that, whoever is keeping track of such things. I had their Falafel plate, as it was Eat Falafel Day (I think). Nice meal! 6 homemade chickpea fritters are crisp outside and fluffy inside. Served with pickled turnips and tahini sauce. We will be back!

TLDR; I'm a fan, I'd recommend it if you're in the area. I'll definitely come back to try the rest of the menu. Context I dined in on a Wednesday, there was nobody else there. Food I'd order again - Muhammara Dip Falafel Wouldn't Order Again - Fries - safe option & it's fine but I should've ventured into the menu more Potato & Za'atar Wait Time - 0, we were seated immediately. The staff was very friendly & welcoming.

Amazing customer service started from the nice friendly host who welcomed us with great hospitality and worm smile he guided us to our table with reservation. After that the waitress came over asked for drinks and appetiser she gave a great recommendations , she gave me a great idea about the kabobs dishes . After we ordered our appetiser 2 or 3 minutes the appetiser came out very quickly, the waitress came back to take our dinner order with great service and professional manner . Our dinner order came out very quick hot and fresh everything was great and delicious thank you very much . We ordered the trio dips, salad , flatbread,cheese rolls ,chicken and beef kebabs. Aleppo's is cozy restaurant clean and unique. Service 10/10 Food 10/10 Atmosphere 10/10 I recommend Aleppo's restaurant to everyone ... please check my photos

Bright and sparkling new, this place is as shiny as a newly minted Syrian 1 Pound coin. So, if you're hoping to be reminded of your ancestral home, sorry, there are no crowds lining up for water or scrambling over rubble of what used to be their house in order to grab a Red Cross tent. No, nothing like that. There is a nice spotless dining room and a wrap around glassed in Patio over looking Katella Ave. which is not exactly a romantic Garden of Allah view but effective use of the irregular space the owners leased. There is an Arabic loop to put you in the mood for food or remind you of fingernails on a chalkboard depending on your musical tastes. The AC was turned up so high that the temp was low enough to cure a Ham, God forgive me. Maybe this is the place to wear that ugly Christmas sweater? And while this spot is on Disney's doorstep there is no Mickey Mousing around in the kitchen. This Kitchen is totally serious about what goes out to the tables. Who's here? Disney tourists? Not so much, so no wild child running amok in a Goofy Sweatshirt between the tables and no plastic Mouse ears settled on a someone's Hajib. Mostly it's the Syrian community, those of us who've hit every spot in Little Arabia and found them wanting for the most part or anyone who worked up an appetite after afternoon prayers. The Staff: The Staff is Robert who's smile is as radiant as the dining room. He knows the menu and will happily curate your meal. Can't decide, hand the reins to Robert. The Food: The menu is large, ambitious, and authentic. Still cold? Eat quicker to get the blood flowing. It's easy as the food here is delicious. The menu offers the very best of Syrian tastes that all tastes terrific and celebrates the unique cuisine of an ancient culture. So, enjoy the bounty in Orange County and feel sad for the strife torn homeland. There are Cold Mezze, Hot Mezze, Flatbreads, Fresh Salads, Chef's Signature plates, Grilled items, Sandwiches and Wraps, Sides and Mocktails. If you closed your eyes and simply poked at the menu you'd still dine like Royalty. Just perusing the long list of what's on offer will make you feel full and fuller still after tackling one of the ample platters for two...for one. I enjoyed every bit of the Beet Salad with, let's say it together, Roasted Beet Bits, fresh Baby Arugula, Toasted Walnuts, Radish Slices, Red Onion Slivers, all under a drizzle of a simple dressing of just quality Olive Oil and Lemon Juice. As a finishing touch the mound of Vegetables was dotted with a crown of salty crumble of Feta Cheese. But you can't go here and order simply Bunny food. You're in luck as there is plenty of protein winking at you whispering "do me". The Shish Tawook (Chicken Kebab to we mortals) was marinated (brined) for 24 hours and then grilled just right to retain it's Chickenosity. Every chunk-o-chicken was plastic spoon tender and as juicy as it could be without it being Chicken Soup. The balanced marinade was still present and added notes of a slightly sour tang, lemon and pepper leaving a lovely lingering afterglow. The Monkey fist sized 12 pieces of Chicken were lined up next to a hill of fluffy Rice dusted with Sumac, along with a Charred Tomato and an ice cream scoop of Shredded Carrots, Red Cabbage laced with a light Vinaigrette. One plate would feed a Seal Team. And just when you think you should try to re-buckle your belt in compliance with the dictates of social civility in public out comes a bowl of wonderful Hummus which was creamy, and smooth as cake frosting. You can discard any reservations about Arabic (Syrian) cuisine. I recommend you make a reservation and schlepo to Alleppo.
