Zaytoon Grill: Reviews & Ratings
The pictures bely the deep love, thought and years of experience that seem to go into every dish. I have had many Mediterranean restaurants and this might be one of the best I’ve had. Simple is so hard to do correctly, they’ve done it. Thank you for the delicious meal, and the hilarious, uplifting bathroom posters
We were visiting St Pete today and found this little restaurant. The food was well prepared, delicious, and came quickly. We tried the chicken bowl and chicken shawarma sandwich and the chicken kebab entree, and they were all very good and presented nicely. The owner was also extremely friendly. I advise everyone in the area to try this restaurant out!
I order from here through door dash a few times a month and it's been delicious every time. I love love LOVE the falafel and the lamb is very tasty and cooked perfectly the rice is also really good and I'm not even a big fan of rice. All the food has a lot of flavor and tastes healthy. I feel good after eating it!
Amazing food, I really loved my beef shawarma. The fries were unique and very tasty. The service was polite and very fast. The food came out quickly and was incredibly tasty! Overall a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it.
I ordered tabouli salad and falafel And my friend ordered shakshuka. Everything was amazing! The falafel was so crispy from outside and soft from inside, the shakshuka was the best I tried . You can feel that everything is fresh made. The restaurant was very clean and the stuff was very nice. Highly recommend, definitely will come back.
Delightful food and cozy atmosphere for this small restaurant. I have visited multiple times for the falafel, which they make in a tasty pita with spicy zhug on the side. The shashuka is excellent; frankly everything they make tastes fresh; a great place for Eastern Mediterranean food. Highly recommended
Falafel perfection! Zaytoon Grill was a bit of a spontaneous decision and what a surprise. An extremely friendly owner and fresh, well prepared dishes, deserve to be recognized with enthusiasm. If you're in the area, this is a great choice.
Hidden Gem Alert Stumbled in here today for dinner. Glad I did! Everyone was friendly. The Falafel Bowl was my favorite and the Siracha Hummus was super tasty. Their homemade hot sauce was right on point. Washed my meal down with a full piece of Baklava. I’ll be back
