I was only in St. Pete for a short time, but I made sure to eat at Zaytoon twice because it is that amazing. Having lived in Bethlehem, I always look for Palestinian cuisine wherever I travel, and this family-owned restaurant was truly special. The owners and staff were wonderful. We tried the crispy and perfectly seasoned fries, babaghanoush, falafel, kibbe, the chicken shawarma bowl, and hummus (I really enjoyed being able to customize it with different toppings—adding beef and almonds was a great idea). Everything was delicious and fresh. I highly recommend it!
The restaurant is small but charming. This was our first visit and we decided to go because we are fans of Mediterranean cuisine. Unfortunately, the food wasn't very authentic. While flavorful, it wasn't the greatest quality. I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl, but it arrived as a plate of rice and shawarma with a small amount of salad on the side, not in a bowl as expected. I would give the flavors a 7 out of 10. Overall, I would rate the food as 3 out of 5.
We got the Mixed Grill platter that had beef, chicken and kefta kabobs with some grilled veggies. We also got the Zaytoon sampler so we could try their hummus and babaganoush. The hummus was outrageously good, very light and clearly freshly made. All the food was delicious; because of the platters we were able to try out so many parts of their menu and we loved all of it.
Nice restaurant good food and great service. I didn’t give five stars because I orderedthe Lamb Kabob Platter and the lamb was very dry. This is a small restaurant so it’s a little tight inside, but we did eat our meal there and for the most part we did enjoy it.Food: 4/5
