This place is truly SOLID. It was only a few months when I tried this business for the first time (and it was a to-go experience.) What I experienced back then was simply amazing (from service to food), and today, I had the pleasure of utilizing them again. And this time, it was through a delivery service. And it didn't disappoint me a bit.Although I wouldn't have known if the service and ambiance were great, I, at least knew how the food was so let me tell you what I got and how each dish was.-Sambusa Ground Beef: Came in three pieces. They truly perfected in the sambusa making. The well-seasoned ground beef inside was rightly salted. I simply could not ask for better sambusa to be frank. The dark brown sauce that came with it had a tangy/vinegary taste to it. When you eat it, make sure that the sauce touches the ground beef because it truly enhances the meat. -Hummus (app): Good portion. Once you've tasted the authentic hummus flavor from a restaurant that knows how to make a great hummus, you can never buy those packaged store-bought ones. Their hummus is creamy; the sprinkled paprika on top is a beautiful final touch to enhance the look of it. -Falafel: Did I get three small doughnuts? Nope, they were falafels alright!! But I had never seen falafels shaped like mini doughnuts ever before in my entire life until today! As uniquely shaped as it could be, the texture and the flavor were so one of a kind. Authentic might not explain this appetizer dish so you'll have to get it to taste it for yourself. You will not be disappointed. And of course, they included more than enough pita bread in a brown bag. So tender; so good. I don't know if I can order Mediterranean or Middle Eastern food from any other place because now I know a place that pretty much guarantees the quality. I can only imagine I wouldn't be as satisfied as I would hope to be if I ordered similar dishes from other places. Now I know that I can have food delivered from Zaytoon, I might keep doing this when I don't feel like cooking or I simply want to have high quality restaurant meals in the comfort of my own home. Case closed!!

This was a terrible restaurant. To clarify, I have been here a few times before and it's not mind blowing Afghan food, but it's okay. Today, however, was the first day of their new ownership. There was one female server taking care of the entire restaurant and I'm assuming no more than 2 cooks, if that, in the back. We were a party of 6 (typically how many people when I eat out with family). Had we known the food would take 1+ hrs to come out post ordering, we would've skipped. The food eventually came out stone cold. My Dad mentioned this to the server who offered to microwave his--and anyone else's who had cold food (all of us). I passed because 1.) that is just comical. We're paying an upward of $20 per meal. and 2.) I had salad on my plate and didn't want that to be warm. I also want to add that tables all over were dirty and had food on it because there was 1 server serving 5 tables. The tables were also way too close together. The server noticed that we were having a pretty miserable time so she took 25% off our bill. She was incredibly sweet and tried her best. It's not her fault management sucks. Will never go here again lol.Also their "beef shawarma" and "greek gyro" are the same thing.

The food here is great. The issue I have with the place is their operations/internal communication and their apathetic attitude towards customers.We've ordered from here several times and have encountered similar issues the past two times: they don't have someone monitoring their online orders. I've had family members arrive twice in the past few weeks to discover that nobody took orders that came in on their online ordering tablets and passed them along to the kitchen.The first time a few weeks ago, we saw a look of panic on the young man at the host stand's face when we came to pick our order up. There was some yelling and confusion in the kitchen, and we were told that what we had ordered had also been ordered by another table, so they'd give us our order and we'd be ready in "5 minutes." Instead, it took closer to 20 minutes of waiting. There was no proactive apology nor offer to make up for the inconvenience.You'd think that they'd improve their operations to make sure this didn't happen again. However, the same thing happened again a few days ago when my family ordered from the restaurant again. While my family member waited for his food, he heard at least one other customer come in to discover they hadn't started their order either. They left after telling the restaurant to cancel the order.So, while I'd love to support a local restaurant that makes good food, I'd suggest calling after you place your order to ensure your food is actually prepared.

A cute little Mediterranean restaurant with an Afghan flare. The customer service was good as well as the food. I tried the "Mantu" a dish that is made in Afghanistan. It wasFantastic! Be warned though it takes 40 min to prepare but it is with the wait!

Very nice lunch with my daughter! She wanted something healthy and close to the house. We both love Mediterranean, so off we went to Zaytoon. This is the former location of Crave, and idk what happened to them. I liked them. The interior is pretty much the same. Very spare and simple, but with fun lighting fixtures. Service was excellent. Efficient and very polite. My daughter wanted to try grape leaves. I didn't think that she would like them, but stayed quiet. We encouraged both kids to have adventurous palates. They weren't her favorite, but the filling wasn't bad. She had the gyro wrap, and I had the chicken shawarma. Both were DELICIOUS!! They were wrapped in a very, very thin flatbread that could possibly be mistaken for paper. It was unusual to me. But a very nice change from giant flour burrito wraps. I liked it. We also got a giant order of fries to share. They were CRINKLE FRIES!! And so yummy!!! Perfectly cooked. I ate way too many. Yum! Took half the sandwich home. Very generous size. We really liked this place. Will return, maybe even get my next plane sandwich here.

Lunch was great. The food was prepared perfectly. My companion is vegetarian and she found the food to be superior to what is often served as "vegetarian". This was a treat for us both. Great service, too. Prices are moderate. We will go again,
