I can't say nice enough things about this restaurant!! We were hopelessly lost (it's in the basement of the forum shops by the way!) and the man at the front desk not only called me back three times, but also literally stayed on the phone with us until we found the restaurant! Not only that, but they also give us a drink and dessert on the house! Really super nice, beautiful restaurant and the food was amazing. Even though it is a *little* lol hard to find we highly recommend this restaurant! Don't miss out. You will have a wonderful time. Big thanks to all the staff at Zaytinya!! A+++ read more

Zaytinya - Mezze - Turkish Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

We love Zaytinya! We were introduced to it in Washington DC and have been hoping for one to open closer to us. When we saw they had opened in Vegas, we knew we had to go during a recent trip. The food is always amazing! On this visit we got: the hummus (which they serve with 3 fresh fluffy pita), spanakopita, ground lamb kebab and the coffee molten cake. We also got 1 espresso martini and 1 ouzo. If we had had more space, we would have gone with the falafel. It was much quieter than I expected for such a busy shopping center but maybe people just don't know how much of a gem this place is yet! Definitely recommend going and enjoying a night out! read more

We often stay away from the strip due to the higher tourist prices, but I have to say every single thing we ordered here was delicious and the staff was great. Absolute must to take those friends and family coming in town who want to be on the strip. read more

Had reservations for three on a Saturday night including the wife and my adult son. Overall we had a wonderful experience as the service was exceptional and the food was fantastic. This is pretty much a tapas-style restaurant so we shared multiple dishes. We started with the spanakopita, falafel, Zaytinya fries and soujouk flatbread. The falafel was perfectly tender on the inside with a crunchy exterior. The fries were well seasoned and the flatbread was very good. There's a runny egg on top with delicious sausage and cheese. The only dish I wasn't thrilled with was the spanakopita. Instead of the thousands of flaky layers that makes this dish unique and so delicious it was more like a pastry crust that I found to be overly greasy. The filling was quite good but just got lost in the flabby exterior. Side note - they bring out a basket of complimentary fluffy homemade pita bread after you order and will continue offering to bring more. It's so good we had to say no after round two for fear of ruining our appetites for the rest of the meal! My wife ordered a tomato and cucumber salad which had that same bread used as croutons. Very tasty! The three of us split the kebab platter as an entree and added the octopus. The kebabs are highly recommended - there were two styles of lamb (sausage and diced), one chicken and one beef meatball. They're accompanied by grilled blistered Roma tomatoes, sautéed onions and peppers and a little parsley salad. All were exceptional! The octopus was super tender and was on a bed of pea purée. Also definitely recommended! For dessert we shared the olive oil cake and the Turkish coffee chocolate cake. Both were delicious and a great was to finish the meal. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and had a distinct Mediterranean vibe. We were seated at a very comfortable corner booth. Dinner for three was $272 before tip which included two excellent glasses of Greek wine, two soft drinks and a double espresso with the two desserts after the meal. We had lots of yummy leftovers to bring home which I devoured the next day LOL. read more

Love, love, love Jose Andres. Zaytinya for us was a mixed bag. Some dishes were inspired, some fell flat. First off, the decor was stunning. It felt like a calm evening in a beautiful backyard in the Mediterranean. Appetizers/spreads: came with warm, delicious pita -Baba ghannouge: the best thing we ate. Must order. -Hummus: solid. -Red pepper feta: great. -Tzatziki: meh. Kinda watery. -Spanakopita: great. -Fries: solid. The dip was very good. -Seared halloumi: meh. -Octopus: excellent and tender. Mains: kinda disappointing -Whole fish: excellent. Perfectly cooked with great flavor and crispy skin. -Lamb chops: not tender and lacked flavor. -Steak: also not tender, despite being medium rare. Also bland. Dessert: overall disappointing, too?! -Chocolate cake: fine, nothing to write home about. -Greek yogurt: missing the yogurt tang? Maybe I wasn't the target audience for this because I live for the tangyness of yogurt. The yogurt part just tasted like fluffy vanilla. The servers were wonderful and very professional. There were some kinks in the service that I'm sure will be sorted out in the coming weeks. We all thought the service was actually a bit too proactive; multiple servers were always asking in quick succession to take away dishes while we were still enjoying them. The water glasses were also opaque so the servers had a hard time keeping them full for us. Pricing was very reasonable. We definitely over-ordered by a long shot and the total bill did not feel like extortion as is typical of Vegas. Cocktails were excellent and the wine list was so fun with loads of interesting Greek options. If you love mezze or girl dinner, you could also definitely go for a fun, light meal of spreads, delicious pita, and wine. read more

Had dinner here and had the 1. Babaganoush, 2. Crunchy veggies, 3. Dolmades, 4. Cauliflower, 5. Kofte kebab, and 6. Galatopita (dessert). The babaganoush was amazing, smooth, and smoky. This was one of my favorite items. The cauliflower was delicious and was plated on a nice tangy sauce with capers. Delicious but not the best cauliflower I have ever had. The Dolmades were my favorite! This dish came with 5 of them and was plated over a small amount of whole milk labneh. The Kofte was OK. It was very cumin-forward which deviated from the traditional flavor of this dish, but was a nice twist. The galatopita was an amazing dessert, like a cross between crème brûlée and apple pie? Very worth a try! read more

Cute spot for Mediterranean food. We ordered a flatbread Halloumi Pide, which was delicious, along with the family-style kebab platter and the whole fish. We chose these dishes based on the server's recommendation that they would feed 3-4 people. The portions are on the smaller side. We finished the meal with the Greek yogurt and apricot and the olive cake. The restaurant has a great vibe and color scheme. The service was good with no complaints. read more

Alycia is a very sweet waitress and she loves her job and knows the menu by heart! The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has great vibes!! I love the scallops and shrimp and all the amazing sauces. The Brussels sprouts are sautéed and gluten free! 5 stars for the entire experience read more

The quality is significantly lower than the DC location, which I frequent. I was very disappointed by the subtle differences between the two locations. Ambiance and service were fine, it was the food. If it's not consistent, what's the point? read more

I have a really hard time eating out because most places cook with inflammatory seed oils like canola and vegetable oil and that does not work for me! But this place? They were so accommodating. The chef actually came out to talk to us and made sure we could eat here. Everyone was super helpful, kind, and willing to make changes so we could enjoy our meal. They seriously went above and beyond. The service was amazing. The first night I had Bianca and the second night I had Elena both were fantastic! Highly recommend requesting them. The food was so good. We left full, happy, and not disappointed at all. I also don't drink, and they had some really unique mocktails that were actually fun to try. Also the prices were reasonable and the ambiance was beautiful! We come to Vegas all the time--this is officially one of our new favorite spots! read more

Hard to find a healthy food in Vegas. This is the only place with Mediterranean cuisine in the whole city. We had a dinner there twice and it was phenomenal. The chief is from Spain and does the magic. Highly recommended! read more

My family's favorite Strip restaurant . Service is always perfectly attentive. Kitchen is quick and food is delicious. Tried almost everything on the menu except for lamb baharat, which is on the list for tonight's visit. Only criticism I have is that the tahdig for the celebration rice is too skimpy, but that's just my greediness. We also appreciate Jose Andres' commitment to serving troubled areas around the world with nourishing food with World Central Kitchen. read more

Mike is the best server!!! Food and ambiance were awesome. My friends and I had a great time. read more

Zaytinya is located in The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace. Definitely a convenient spot for my family and me to have a dinner on our first night of vacation, but it was a bit difficult to find coming from the hotel area - definitely a long walk (and we had a couple of older people in our group). We had a reservation, but still have to wait a bit for an open table - not a huge deal, it was only about 10 minutes or so. Decent service for the most part, but I feel like they are not the most attentive - sometimes we would have to request something 2 - 3 times for them to actually bring it. When we finally seated, we ordered a variety or different appetizers and entrees to share for our table. We ordered a 2 orders of each of their Cauliflower Tiganites, Celebration Rice, Kebab Platter, Octopus Santorini, and pita bread with some sort of dipping olive oil (not sure what this one is called). Definitely too much food and the food was decent, but it was a good time. read more

We made a late reservation here after arriving back from out of the country. We had been to the D.C. location for brunch almost one year ago and it was fabulous. Tonight we arrived and were warmly greeted. We were a little surprised that it wasn't packed as it was a Friday night in Vegas. The ambience was nice and the staff was friendly and doted on us. The waiter helped us choose a bottle of wine (Kir-Yianni Naoussa) in our price range from Greece and it went well with the food. We shared: Hommus Kawarma, H'tipiti, Tabbouleh, Shish taouk, Adana Kebab, rice, and pita bread (warm, pillow-like, fresh). For desert we shared the olive oil cake ( good, but probably too much food at that point). All of the food was delicious and evoked memories of our D.C. visit. Its always hard to choose from the varied dishes, but getting the small plates allows us to share a more varied selection. The restaurant is hard to find in its current location (poor Forum Shop signage at times), but worth the hunt. We look forward to returning soon. read more

Across the atrium from Joe's at the forum shops, the place was pretty quiet at 7:45 on a Saturday night but did get busier as the night went on. The manager did come over later asking how we had learned of the place and she seemed almost surprised so guessing the slowness may be a bit by design as they ramp up. One other note on the staff: they all seemed genuinely happy to be working there. And they all spoke very highly of Jose Andres which I really liked. The tasting menu is not in the regular menu so you will need to ask for it. Also, the person I was eating with is allergic to shellfish so we asked if they could swap out the shrimp with anything else. Lead to some conversation in the back as pretty sure it's the fire time this had come up, but they gave us a lamb tenderloin dish as a replacement and it was great. at $90 on the strip in Vegas felt like it was a great value, add in the wine pairing, 4 glasses for $45 and definitely feel like I got my money's worth. First, olive oil and pomegranate molasses with fresh pita Don't know enough about wines to give much detail and I didn't take notes, but it was a geek sparkling wine to start, made "exclusively" for Jose's restayrants. Crisp but not overly dry and not over carbonated either. Of the first courses, while all good the baba ganoush (with the pomegranate) was the star for me, and the tabbouleh was also noteworthy. Course two was another Greek white. The stars of this round was the spanikopita and the lamb loin substitute for the shrimp. Third course switch to a pretty full bodied red, which I liked but was too much for my white-wine loving friend. Both the chicken and the lamb were fantastic. For dessert, an Italian dessert wine, to me similar to a port and very tasty. Also the Greek yogurt and cherry parfait (more sweet and less sour than I'd expect from the greek yogurt description, but the fruit was great) and olive oil cake, which my friend aptly described as being the best version of a strawberry short cake he'd ever had. read more

There was incredible service at the restaurant and I can't wait to come back! Everything looked splendid on the menu, as it was a mix of dips, spreads, small bites and protein. (I would also say it's vegetarian-friendly because of the appetizers.) We got the red pepper spread, got many helpings of pita, the soujuk pide, scallops and salmon. With a dining group of 3, I thought we got a pretty good taste of the whole menu. Next time I come back, I would love to try the adana kebab, lamb, and Tadig. The dessert -- Greek yogurt with ice cream -- was a fun way to clear the palate along with the carajillo which tasted like melted affogato. read more

My wife and I joined my son and his wife who are visiting from the midwest, for dinner tonight. We had warned them this could end up being very expensive to eat on the stip in Las Vegas. Boy was I wrong. Their price to portion ration was excellent as we order family style sharing portions. The quality of the food was top-tier and presentation excellent. Thw blending of flavors from the different Mediterranean cultures was flawless. Our server Nicholas was of the highest caliber. He presentation of the options and knowledge of the food was first class. My daughter-in-law has a specific food allergy and he quickly clarified with the chef this would not be an issue. Nicholas and his assistants took care of us, as if we were the only patrons in the place. Magnificent! The decor and lighting were spot on. Elegant without being snobbish. Lighting was perfect, to allow clear color presentation of the food, without washing-out the room or creating any glare. We had a wonderful time. read more

One of the best meals I've had! Food was great, we ordered a bunch of items to share and everything was really excellent. Music wasn't too loud and the place wasn't too dark. Our sever Elena was delightful and helpful. Highly recommend! read more

It's such a treat to finally have this restaurant in Las Vegas. I have enjoyed it in both NYC and DC and the Vegas location absolutely delivers the same magic. Mediterranean dining at its best with a beautiful mix of Lebanese, Greek, and Turkish flavors, all executed perfectly. The service is warm, attentive, and knowledgeable with spot-on recommendations. The meze menu is a must, order several items to share, then add a few main dishes for the perfect family-style meal. Everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Do not miss their cocktails! Jose Andrés impresses once again with a restaurant that is vibrant, delicious, and memorable. All in all, 10 out of 10 and highly recommended for both Vegas locals and tourists! read more

The service and the environment were incredible. We went for brunch and everything we ordered was incredible. We'll definitely be returning to try their dinner sometime. read more

Jose Andres group's new addition at Caesar's Forum shops is bringing authentic and unique Mediterranean flavors in a modern, formal setting. We tried the restaurant week menu and started with fluffiest and lightest Naan bread with sides of Hummus and Baba Ganoush that instantly transported my palate back to Cairo. We couldn't stop eating this Naan and had to hold back so we can enjoy more food. Next came the Smoked Beet Salata and the Horta Salata. The Smoked Beet Salata was just an okay salad with beets but the Horta Salata was so flavorful and the smoked olives and fava santorini stood out. Main course was the Shish Taouk (grilled chicken) and the Seared Salmon. The chicken was grilled to perfection and the sumac onions and garlic toum it was served with enhanced each bite perfectly. The Seared Salmon was seared expertly and the dill sauce with the pine nuts made this dish standout. Dessert was ok and the Olive Oil cake was just the right amount of sweet. Our waiter was excellent and the busser was overly eager to take our dishes but overall sevice was great. Menu looks exciting and I'm looking forward to trying more dishes. read more

I first dined at Zaytinya in DC several years ago, and had a fantastic experience. This time around at their newly opened spot in Vegas, it was good but didn't quite match DC. They are located in the area near Joe's, and next RPM Italian. We came here on the last day of Restaurant Week and opted for it at $60/pp. I won't go into detail on everything we had, but it was all solid. The pita bread is that on the house was great, as always. Other highlights included the stuffed grape leaves, salmon, meatballs, and the olive oil cake. Would I return? Probably not anytime soon. But I'm glad I tried Zaytinya in Vegas, and hopefully they can stick around for a while because this type of high-end Mediterranean food may not resonate with the typical tourist that visits Vegas. read more

Beautiful, gorgeous space with a menu to match! I've been to the location in WDC and was hoping against hope this would live up to that since it's one of my absolutely favorite restaurants. Happy to say it did! The menu was a great mix of well-executed creativity with flavors that are familiar. We split mix of things: hummus, pita, kebab, rice, strawberry dessert. The food was great but it was the service that really made the experience. Everyone was kind and friendly! But the superstar of the night was Victor. Upon leaving, my guest had left their credit card in the folio and Victor RAN after us to give it back! That's commitment! Gold Star for Victor! read more

Went to the grand opening event and only got to try little bites, but I was so impressed with their shrimp (not shown) and falafel. The lamb lettuce cup and chicken skewers were tasty too. Beautiful restaurant with light Mediterranean inspired vibes. The female DJ they had playing at the event was so good! Later they passed out desserts which were all delicious and rich. Probably my favorite was the layered fruit Greek yogurt. Would love to go and try it for an actual meal soon. read more

Zaytinya - Puffy pita pillows of goodness, compliments of the restaurant! - Turkish Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Food was amazing and authentic. Our table ordered Hommus, Falafel, Fattoush, Crunchy Vegetables, Cauliflower Tiganites, and the Turkish Coffee Chocolate Cake as dessert I would say that everyone should order the Crunchy Vegetable bowl with their meal, it comes with lots of nice things that can be eaten and enjoyed with everything. The Hommus was very good, probably one of my favorites, and very authentic. I took some mint leaves from the Crunchy Vegetable bowl and added them to the Hommus and ate it all with the complementary pita bread and it was amazing. The Falafels were very good but they were very small. I would recommend eating them with Hommus for sure. The Fattoush was amazing. Though its not real Fattoush (ours traditionally has LOTS of vinegar), it tastes exactly like the salad my Syrian parents make me at home so I have no complaints. The Cauliflower Tiganites were very good and fried to perfection. The Turkish Coffee Chocolate Cake was very good but if you don't like dark/ bitter chocolate it might not be for you. I would also reccomend brushing off the salt from the top of the cake but its not a big deal and overall I really enjoyed it. We visited two times so far and both times the servers were extremely nice- service was great. The restaurant is beautiful, elevated, and elegant. Most of the time, in my opinion, nice looking restaurants usually have the worst food but I was really happy to see that the restaurant was gorgeous and the food was great read more
