    all the meats were so dry and completely unseasoned, which was pretty unacceptable considering the prices were expensive. service wasn't friendly and a bit negligent for our big group (auto gratuity of 20% for groups of four). hummus and fries were good but hard to overcome the rest of the entree experience

    This was a fantastic meal. We got the futur medley, I highly recommend. It covers with a bunch of different dishes and pita to sample everything. I ordered the shawarma and my partner got the mujaddara, both were some of the best we've had. We'll definitely be coming back when we're craving great Mediterranean food. Inside is quaint, there are 5 tables (mix of 2 and 4 tops) and a bar that seats 4. Service was friendly and quick. Very proud business, love it!

    Cozy spot for Palestinian eats on Beacon Main Street, portions are decently large -- would recommend family style! The restaurant isn't super large, would recommend putting name down and walking around. Labne, Baba Ganoush, Halloumi and Falafel were clear standouts, everything baseline delicious.

    A great spot after a nearby hike. Super flavorful and satisfying. Still thinking about these crispy, well-seasoned za'tar fries! Anything with Lamb is going to be flavorful! We absolute cleared it! Seating is a bit limited, nut the outdoor options aren't too bad if warm outside!

    Delicious food! We tried the fries, lentil soup, and wraps. All were fresh and satisfying. If you are looking for excellent food and service, this place is worth stopping at. Prices are reasonable as well. If you sit outside, you get a nice view of the mountains!

    Lentil soup

    2026 May 10: 1) red lentil soup 2) chicken kebab rice and salad 3) slow roasted lamb rice and salad 4) mint lemonade The lamb is extremely good! Chicken is also very fragrant.

    From the top, lamb/beef Shawarma, Bamia- Okra Stew, & Falafel w/House Hummus.

    I've had better... The space -What looked like the potential to be a hidden gem was just OK. The space is very small, seating maybe 10-12 people total. The food-I already knew what I wanted, falafel, hummus, shawarma & okra stew. The falafel was dense in my opinion, the hummus was average, the okra was good but not great, I liked the flavor of the beef/lamb shawarma but my husband commented it was dry. The rice had cinnamon in it, & at first I didn't mind it but later it seemed to overwhelm the dishes. As far as the presentation everything looked great. Service- There was one person seating, taking orders & manning the register. He was looking on his phone a couple times which isn't a huge deal but when we wanted to order & check out we had to physically go & get him. There are some amazing places in NY to get Lebanese/middle eastern food, this place unfortunately is not one of them.

    My partner and I journeyed to Beacon from the city for a day trip! Of course we had to enjoy a meal before we left! We heard good things about Ziatun, and since it was off-peak dining hours, we wanted to take our chances given Ziatun is a popular spot. Thankfully a table was open indoors as soon as we arrived! It is a small space with limited tables (even more limited as it gets colder out, since they had some tables outdoors). There were two staff members running the front of house, and were SUPER efficient that I was in awe! We ordered the - Addas soup (red lentil soup) - Falafel mezze - Chicken Shwarma wrap - Kofta burger with za'atar fries We were STUFFED by the end of our meal, but we have no regrets! The soup was delicious and perfect for a brisk fall day. The falafel had a crispy exterior and a good appetizer. Our entrees came out quickly after the apps. My boyfriend enjoyed his burger which came with a TON of fries, so both of us shared those throughout the night. The za'atar fries had a lot of seasoning. I loved my chicken schwarma wrap. The wrap stayed hot the entire meal, which I appreciated. The chicken was seasoned so well, and loved the pickled turnips and pickles in the wrap as well, giving some crunch and vinegar taste that balanced out the rest of the wrap flavors. Despite the restaurant being packed at only 4pm on a Sunday, the staff did an excellent job as they were super friendly, efficient, and attentive to all their customers. Loved my experience dining here!

    Really enjoyed my experience here. The staff were friendly and did a good job of managing busy restaurant, which was packed the entire time we were there. The atmosphere is cozy- you feel like you're being welcomed into someone's home. The food was great- well-seasoned and very filling. Recommend: Kofta Burger, Chicken Shawarma Wrap, Falafel, Addas (Lentil) Soup

    Food 8/10 It was a 50 minutes wait but in the meantime, we got to explore the town. When we finally got seated, we ordered the chicken shawarma and kofta burger. The chicken shawarma had a nice char, was tender, and tasted so good with hummus and bita. The kofta burger was also quite delicious, their fries had a seasoning that made me actually want to eat fries. Atmosphere 6/10 It felt a bit stuffy inside, but it was also raining that day. The bathroom was too small :( Service 6/10 I know it was only two guys handling all the servers, so totally understand that that was the reason it was a bit slow. They seemed so stressed out so kudos to them for running a restaurant :(

    Shawarma with baba ghanouj as base
    Mizan R.

    Went here after a fall festivities day and was in a waitlist for around 45mins. During that time we explored Beacon area. The restaurant sent us a text and when we arrived there was a table waiting for us. the service was awesome very kind and laid back The ambiance is quite cozy and a bit cramped spaces but it works nonetheless. it was nice interior and allure to it. good vibes for sure! For food, we got Mansef and Shawarma with Baba Ganoush as the base. The Mansef was chicken (they ran out of lamb). It was deliciously seasoned and very warm perfect for the season. The shawarma on the other hand was stone cold on the baba ghanoush which was a disappointment. i've had this dish many times before and the protein is usually sizzling hot. it was not that good. At the end we got Black tea and Herbal Mint tea. the black tea was lukewarm while the mint tea was on point. i've had better (kanye shrug) 7/10 B rating

    Consider this a review of the now two times I've been to Ziatun!! I was shocked to see that I did not review them when I first went to visit with my partner back in June. This recent time I went I grabbed the Vegan Shawarma wrap, which was incredibly rich with flavor! We drove about an hour to have dinner here and it was so worth it! I ordered some Palestinian Lemon Lime soda this time and that was quite good! If you're from the city like I am and visiting the Beacon area, I would very highly recommend this spot!

    All the food we got

    Do not get shawarma - they served some diced meat marinade in Lemmon and pan fried , not shawarma at all , - server did offered different dish but we were not hungry or wanted to try something else as we got full of the appetizer that came with small difrent dips .It was good , a lot of difrent salads , and mint tea had mint , loved it , very cute little place- Come for the appetizers , mint lemonade was very lemony - if you like lots of lemon sour flavor I would highly recommend it

    I was so fortunate to find this amazing restaurant, about a mile off exit 8 on I84…read more The owners are so friendly, kind, and ready to share thier culture. The two times I've been in, they've brought out samples of thier menu items to try. I've ordered various things on the menu: hummus, lebneh, falafel wraps, falafel platters, baked kibbe platters, the green bean side, etc. All have been amongst the best Lebanese food I've tried. I want to expand and try more things, like the chicken and beef kafta. If you have questions just ask. Certain platters come with different items. Some rice, some salad, etc. Thier pita is fresh and delicious, and comes in different sizes. They have a decent sized dining area for dine-in, and the take-out area is right as you walk in the side door. Here you will also find a grocery area with Lebanese essentials. The selection is sizable, and offers items you won't find in a regular grocery store. I stocked up on spices, and coffee. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous. I will return every opportunity I get.

The owner Simon was very accommodating , lovely, and made me feel like family. As soon as I finished ordering , he offered me a free side. The spicy mushroom side was so delicious! I also noticed he greeted all people coming in with kindness, charisma and free samples, which I loved. I sat down and waited for my food to come out. I got up to ask if they have any hot tea, he said yes and recommended the cardamom tea . The tea was perfect beautiful delicious! Never had cardamom tea before. I came from New York on a day trip and stumbled upon a true gem. I never had Lebanese food before and I am so glad I came here. I was treated like an actual princess. Food was so flavorful , delicious, full of love and flavors!!! The falafel was crunchy and so so so so good. Everything on the table was fresh!!! Simon would come to my table and give me free samples of their desserts. I was just so overjoyed with the whole experience! I couldn't leave without buying hummus and a seven bean salad as well as some cookies. The restaurant was beautiful and filled with life and colors. Thank you Simon for having me , you are amazing and your team is too! I will definitely be back and I recommend everyone from all parts of the globe to come here.

For the price and flavor it was so worth it. I got two meals out of mine. I got the gyro platter and it probably was one of the tastiest meals I've had in a long time. I thought the chicken was seasoned and flavorful. But by far, the best part was the white sauce. I would pair it with the mango lassi and it was such a great explosion of flavors - both savory and sweet. I will say they ask whether you're okay with onions and raisins in your platter. I liked them but I know raisins might not be what most people prefer to add to their rice. Service was fast. You can either order at the front table or at your seat. They got the food in a reasonable amount of time. The place looks small from the outside, but when you walk in, there's a back room worth of 30 people worth of seating. It's extremely cozy inside. There's also a parking lot right next to the restaurant and also across the street. The lot right next door is kinda small though, so you might need to loop around. Parking shouldn't be a problem and you can get a really good stop if you're lucky.

I was looking at the menu on my way there, and earlier while driving down the street, I noticed people sitting outside. That's when I realized it was open. I was actually walking somewhere else and happened to pass by. I thought, you know what, let me just try it and see what they have. What surprised me was learning it had already been open for five weeks at the time. From the outside, it doesn't do the place justice. It looks cutesy, almost like a pizzeria vibe, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The moment I walked in, the ambience changed everything. Saba is truly an experience--a culinary experience. The designer did an amazing job: spacious seating, plenty of light, greenery touches along the top and borders, and warm colors accented with gold. It feels welcoming and elegant without being over the top. The layout allows for both a casual sit-up space to look outside and a more traditional restaurant setting. Honestly, the interior sets the tone before you even eat. Customer service was absolutely amazing! (It gets better with each visit. Major plus. Some of the best customer service I experienced in the area) I was greeted right away, and the staff went a step further by showing me pictures of menu items. I asked about chicken, and they explained the options and how I could customize them. Those personal touches matter, especially for a newer business--you never know who's walking in, and they made me feel like a valued guest. I ordered the chicken pita. The sauce had a little spice to it, which gave it a nice kick without being overpowering. Everything tasted fresh, which is a huge plus. I also tried the tahini and saba sauces, though they weren't my favorite--I'd probably go with hummus next time. Still, I appreciated the variety. The delivery of the food was excellent as well. I dined in, and I'd definitely recommend sitting inside or outside. Both have ample seating, and they serve you with real, heavy gold utensils, which really adds to the overall experience. It's giving! - especially at a $14 price point for my meal. The experience was uplifting. Whether you're having a good day, bad day, or just an average one, being there feels special. The staff even checked in after I started eating, which I appreciated. Before leaving, I ordered the falafel to go. They came as small bite-sized pieces--slightly oily but still flavorful. I also tried the cookie, and that was truly memorable. It felt like a warm hug from a family member, with that nostalgic taste that takes you back to a comforting place. Overall, I would give Saba a 10 out of 10. It was far more than I expected when I first walked in looking for a simple bite to eat. From the ambience and customer service to the food and little details, it was a full experience. I've been back a few times since and highly recommend it--whether you're a local, visiting, or just passing through Poughkeepsie. It's near Vassar College about 10 mins drive from the walkway over the Hudson and Poughkeepsie train station, and you won't be disappointed.
