Customer Reviews
Friends and family get together on a Sunday evening. This is a perfect place for a food outing. Food is delicious and a great treat for non veg lovers. Grill chicken and honey prawns are awesome. The service part is poor, we have to wait for a long time to place an order. Waiting for waiter makes us the real waiter. It is hard to find the waiter once we place an order. If we want to add something to the order we have to wait for long time. It will be great, If they could add few more persons to take order. We were 15 in number and we got a discount.
Zaitoon is an excellent choice for Arabic cuisine! The food is incredibly tasty, and the menu offers a wide range of authentic options. The ambiance is neat and well-maintained, although it can get a bit crowded. Be prepared to wait for your turn, especially during peak hours. The tables are also packed quite closely together, which can make the space feel a bit cramped. However, the delicious food and welcoming atmosphere make up for these minor drawbacks. Overall, Zaitoon is a great option for those craving authentic Arabic flavors. Highly recommended!
A group of seven of us ate ther on Sunday nght. The food was amazing, great flavours and great servings. Owner is the checf and he was so friendly, as were the waiter and waitress. I had a single halloumi sandwich, tabbouleh, baba ganouj, mjadarrah rice and 2 cocktails. Great tasting food and cocktails. A fun night with loads of great food, wine and cocktail. And the bill was way less than we thought it would be. Go there and chat and enjoy.
I had a seafood with butter naan bread as well as a lime juice. It tasted very well. It is clean everywhere. The service is professional. Thank you.
