Their family meals are such a good deal too. You get a rotisserie chicken, two sides, pita bread and sauces on the side, which is perfect for feeding the whole family without spending a fortune.

Most of the time I place an online order, ordering online is super easy. I pick up to eat at home. But aside from the family meals they have quite a few other really good options. I have to say what stands out the most is their customer service. There have been a couple of times where an item was forgotten or mixed up and every single time they went above and beyond to make it right. They were kind, responsive, and genuinely cared about fixing the issue.

The beef shawarma was juicy and seasoned really well, and watching the shawarma spinning while they prepare everything was such a nice touch. The kafta was also delicious. Freez mix drinks so refreshing from Cyprus. And the pita was so soft and fresh -- definitely worth getting with your meal. Creps with nutella were perfect deser. The interior very traditional Lebanese. Taboleuh salad I highly recommend to try. Overall, great Mediterranean food, good portions, and lots of flavor. I'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!

It's only about 7 minutes from the parks, making it the perfect lunch or dinner spot if you're craving something flavorful that won't leave you feeling heavy. Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The spinach pastry was hands down my favorite, perfectly flaky with a delicious savory filling. The potato pastry was a close second and just as satisfying. If you visit, don't skip the pastries! We also tried the steak and chicken kebab combo plate, and both were cooked perfectly. The chicken was especially tender, juicy, and seasoned beautifully. You can actually watch the meat being cooked fresh in the back, which made the whole experience feel even more authentic. I ordered the veggie plate with falafel, baba ganoush, tabbouleh, hummus, and tahini sauce, and every single item was delicious. The falafel really stood out. It had a perfectly seasoned, crispy exterior with a soft, flavorful center. Dipping it into the baba ganoush, hummus, and tahini made every bite even better. One of my favorite things was that the meal was incredibly satisfying without feeling greasy or overly heavy. It was fresh, filling, and packed with flavor, but I still felt great afterward. The staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, and the service was impressively fast. They also have a great selection of Mediterranean spices if you want to bring some of those incredible flavors home. Huge compliments to the chef and the entire team. Between the fresh ingredients, authentic flavors, generous portions, and excellent service, Zait Zataar has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite Mediterranean restaurants. I'll absolutely be coming back!

I honestly wish I never tried this place. Reason being is it's some of the best Middle Eastern…read morefood I have ever tasted yet one of the worst parking lots I have experienced. Now I will be craving the delicious Aleppo hot sauce knowing I have to brave a nightmare parking lot. It's a teeny tiny parking lot with odd angles and bottlenecks with a surprising amount of restaurants sharing it. Makes zero sense. After circling three times I dropped my wife off and parked across the street risking getting towed. There's a ton of construction so hopefully more parking is on the way. That said, food is outstanding. Service was also perfection. Cuisine here is from Syria so there a lot of interesting dishes I haven't seen before. We started with deep fried spring rolls stuffed with akkawi cheese imported from Syria. Expensive but order it. I ordered the "khashkhash" kabob plate which was 4 grilled kefta kabobs served on a surprisingly spicy sauce of tomatoes and Aleppo peppers. It was served with a mound of buttery rice sprinkled with Aleppo peppers and a cabbage salad. Honestly the best kabops I've ever had. Absolutely loved the flavors. I devoured the whole plate while eyeing the parking lot across the street for tow trucks. Portion could easily be shared. My wife went with the Gyro flatbread. I scoffed saying "this isn't a Greek restaurant" but the joke was on me because I was envious. House made flat bread topped with gyro, tzatziki, pickled onions, tomatoes, feta, sumac, and Aleppo peppers. I took a few bites and retracted my previous scoff. They had a large list of mocktails. I had the Vimto Mojito and my wife had the margarita. Both creative and flavorful. Lastly I tried the "Ashta" for dessert. It's an Aleppo signature per the menu and is a pudding like dessert of clotted cream, pistachio, strawberries, and honey. It's simple yet satisfying. Took me a few bites to acquire the flavor but I loved it more with each bite. My wife didn't care for it. They moved by Angel Stadium from their Brookhurst spot. Great place except the parking. Reservations are odd too. $25 penalty PER PERSON if you miss your reservation. It was definitely motivation to find parking.

Today I went there for lunch…read more To be honest, the food was pretty decent. The meats were delicious, the Baba Ghanouj was excellent, and the rice... well... let's just say it was on vacation. But the service? Bro... I've never experienced anything like it. The waiter (a young tall guy) acted like I accidentally walked into his living room and interrupted family dinner. Every interaction went something like this: Me: "Hey, can I get..." Him: silent stare... Grabs the item... drops it on the table like he's serving a prison sentence... walks away without saying a word. I honestly started wondering if the restaurant has a competition for "Least Friendly Waiter of the Month." At one point I even came up with a conspiracy theory: maybe the owner keeps all the tips, so the staff intentionally gives terrible service to make sure customers leave $0. If that's actually the strategy... genius. If not... I have absolutely no explanation. Food: Great meats, excellent Baba Ghanouj, disappointing rice. Service: 0/10. I left feeling like I owed them an apology for choosing their restaurant.

Excellently cooked buttery soft rice, and the baba ganoush were some of my favorites--along with the garlic spread, which was highly addictive!

By the time my friend and I wanted to order, they seemed like they ran out of pita, so they had to make fresh pita. Luckily it wasn't too long! I asked for everything on it and you can technically add more to it aside from "the everything" they mentioned. We ate inside, which the right side of the joint is where you order and you can dine inside on the left side of the place. They actually have quite a nice dining area! The seating is also very nice and cozy. Sitting down with our pita bread, it was pretty nice! Everything tasted so fresh and the pita was so soft (especially cause it just came out). Falafel was nice and crispy. It was really good. Although, I wish all the hummus was all on the bottom and which it was spread out more nicely. Maybe i'll get more next time. I was extremely full by the time I ate 3/4 of it. I didn't want to save it cause I was afraid the pita might get soggy, so I forced myself to finish it and became extremeelyyyy full haha. Still very delicious!

I was impressed and thrilled to find so many years of château Musar wines! We ordered a bottle and everyone else felt exactly as I did after my first taste. A depth and complexity with a smooth finish unlike any other vintner. Since they always order the half roast chicken, we just ordered different sides, and one person got the lamb salad which he devoured. I chose a ratatouille side which I shared with my friends, and they shared their sides as well. The roasted chicken had great skin, but the white meat part of the half bird was a bit dry. Service was excellent, and prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food.
