My family and I had a wonderful dining experience here in Beacon. The food was sensational and well prepared. The appetizers such as the dips, Haloumi, and Domadakia, was fantastic. The main courses and soups beyond delicious. Apefect way to top it all off was Arabic coffee and a piece of Baklava.....Definitely going back!! read more

Ziatun is a fantastic establishment. Their chicken shawarma and beef kofta wraps are awesome! Their fries are spiced so uniquely and the tahini and spicy tahini are some of the best I've tried. I highly recommend this joint to anyone looking for a unique take on Mediterranean food! read more

I love Middle Eastern food so we came here for lunch even tho we had heard it was overpriced, but the shawarma pita sandwich and the fattoush salad were both disappointing. The pita was cold and the shawarma while being well-seasoned was dry and seemed like it had been reheated from the day before. It was also the least amount of meat I have ever had in a pita sandwich. The salad was likewise small and just a bit underwhelming. It gets 3 stars because the staff was friendly and the atmosphere was nice, and also there are many things on the menu we didn't try. Still, seeing the rude comments that the owner leaves on negative reviews puts a bad taste in my mouth and means I probably won't be inclined to come back. read more

I found it on Main Street, a very lay back and relaxing restaurant. I checked in and got free tea. It tastes different but in a good way. Free refill. I asked a staff for recommendations, and she told me that bowls are good. I ordered a bowl with beef kababs. $4 more if you add meat. Hummus are good with vegetables and rice. I also ordered a desert, and in total it costs about $20 without tips. read more

Ziatun - Middle Eastern Near Me - Beacon, New York

Suggest the blond woman hostess/waitress cool down a bit. Ordered $100 of food and went to go pick it up. Food initially wasn't ready on time, which she rudely communicated. When it was ready, she placed two bags on the counter, unlabeled. When I picked them up to try reading the illegible receipts she angrily walks up to me and snatches one of the bags away and pushes my bag toward me. A simple "oh, your food is that one" would've sufficed. I'd rather not pay $19 for three tiny skewers of meat in the "mixed platter" for that service. read more

Overpriced and I did not get what the woman told me. I bought two platters and soup for take out. The platters consisted mainly of rice, hardly any salad but the small falafels were fine. First and last time I go there. I spent $40+ for 75% rice. If I wanted a rice I would've gotten Chinese food. The lentil carrot soup was horrible, threw it out. AFTER POSTING THIS REVIEW THE OWNER TOLD ME TO FUCK OFF SO I REMOVED A STAR - won't allow you to give zero stars. I've heard about his attitude and inability to take constructive criticism before. read more

Tried this Middle Eastern spot for the 1st time today....we ordered the Hummus and Pita appetizer and devoured it...so good! My husband and I both ordered Shawarma wraps, his chicken and mine lamb.....they were great! He ordered the house fries and they were decent....not great but decent! This is also a great place for Vegan and Vegetarian friends because their falafel is delicious too!! read more

Restaurant was ok. HOWEVER, almost a month after having paid here with my debit visa card I got an unauthorized charge on my bank account from Amazon (from an account that I don't even own) The only reason I was able to flag this is because I hardly use this card. The only transaction before the fraudulent charge is from this restaurant. I have filed a claim with my bank. read more

Amazing middle eastern food. I had a bite of my husband chicken Shawarma and it was beyond fresh and tasty! Definitely will return!

If you want authentic, delicious Palestinian food this is the place to go. I've eaten at almost all of Kamal's restaurants and was again impressed and delighted with the food. The service is great and the staff are knowledgeable and accommodating. I've had the sampler, the wraps, the shawarma entree and Arabic coffee with cardamom. All were simply delicious,and flavorful. You can taste the freshness and the passion Kamal has for his work in every bite. An added plus was the rose water lemonade, which I wish I could buy by the gallon because it's so good. You will not be disappointed by trying this place. And after Ziatun, you can go to the other restaurants he has for even more great food!! read more

As a vegetarian, there were lots of different food options. My companion and I ordered: - Labaneh - Sliced cucumber - Hummus (phenomenal) - Falafel - Honey and semolina cake From start to finish, Ziatün was excellent. The atmosphere is lovely, very cozy and warm. Some of the other reviews suggest that the service here is not always kind, but ours was very good. I would love to come back to this cozy restaurant. read more

Nice little Arabic dine in. Loved the Arabic music. Ambience ok. Strongly would recommend take out or delivery as service is super slow. Owner should seriously consider extra staffing weekends and have staff with some knowledge of Arabic culture and their cuisine!!! Food is above average. read more

Always an amazing meal. Any time we want flavor we take the 45 minute drive to Beacon to go to Ziatun. Thank you for being consistently delicious! read more

This place is an awesome place if you want Mediterranean food. They have a good amount of vegan options and all of it is good. I love coming here after work and having the vegan rice bowl with their delicious fries. The only thing that I have to critique is that sometimes the wait time is long and when there's only a few people inside, it feels crowded but other than that, would recommend. read more

The food here is really, really good. The restaurant itself is very small so go early to get a table. We shared the Futur Medley to start and it was really very good and plenty for two. I followed it with the Mansaf which was delicious. If you're not familiar with Palestinian food then don't be intimidated as the Freud my wait staff were great at offering advice and guidance along the way. Can't recommend this place enough!! read more

Really good Mediterranean spot in beacon. I love their hummus and babaganoush. Cute and quaint restaurant.

We had a wonderful time here. The service was great and the food was excellent. Loved the falafel!! They offered us hot cardamom tea and it was so delicious, m you should definitely add that to the menu :) I look forward to trying more items from the menu. read more

Simply DELICIOUS .. I am middle eastern myself and tend to be critical of the cuisine! When the kibba, vine leaves and coffee is made to perfection you know that it's the real deal and up there with my moms cooking ! Thoroughly enjoyed it! cozy setting infused with Sweet Arabic coffee aroma and classic beats of fairuz in the background..pure nostalgia read more

Ziatun - Arabic coffee - Middle Eastern Near Me - Beacon, New York

We ordered the shwarma wraps and fries. WOW! Packed with flavor and just the right amount of food. Will certainly be going back!

Love the decor but the space is a little tight. The haloumi was good. I would have liked for it to come out in its traditional flambé table-side. Olives were tasty. We ordered the shawarma which lacked a bit of flavor. I feel the spices were slightly watered down. A little too much cinnamon. Good over all. Humus was delicious. Would like to return to taste the rest of the menu. read more

This place is fantastic. It's tiny and the service can take a bit, probably for that reason, but if you have a little extra time and want a fresh, delicious, healthy meal, this spot is the best. read more

EXCELLENT hummus! Probably the best I've had. Definitely made on-site. Super fresh-tasting, creamy and full of flavor. The falafel is seasoned very nicely but is a little on the dry side. However, adding the hummus to moisten it up really does the trick! I enjoyed the rice, as well. Very delicately seasoned with some middle-eastern flare of spice to it, and a perfect texture, as rice should have if it's properly made and held. Ziatun is really cute inside. Small but cozy and intimate with an apropos vibe and decor. Staff was totally efficient and friendly enough to satisfy our table of 3. We WILL return, no doubt! read more

Food was ok , nothing special . But service is out of this planet !!!! Waiter was one of the Best ones in New York State !!

This was a very clean cozy feeling restaurant. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the fatoosh w shawerma was DELICIOUS with a side of red lentil soup. The employes were very professional and well informed on the description of foods. Kudos to the chef I would love to go there when they have live entertainment that usually consist of the belly dancer. Best wishes, SHAMS HADDAD read more

This place is wonderful. The food is fantastic. I've been to Palestine, Egypt, and other countries in the region and I don't recall better food anywhere. The foule and lentil soup here are particularly good. Lots of vegan options. (I just wish they had whole wheat pita). Better food and service than the roundhouse - don't miss it! Update: the hummus with roasted vegetables is also incredible read more

I was surprised at the reviews. Maybe because it's mostly locals that don't go far to eat? I don't know. But this place is average, at best. Portions are a tad on the cheap side, especially the "grape leaves". I couldn't believe how few I got for $14.95. $5 for a tiny glass of lemonade. At least make the glass bigger since it's mostly water! Not worth it, many more better quality middle eastern restaurants. Oh, and I wish I saw the political sign of theirs prior to sitting down, I would have left in a hot minute, very scary! Also, they don't tell you about the "convenience fee" they charge, legally it's supposed to be shown prior to presenting the check. the place is, pretty much.....a rip off with sub-par food. There are better choices in the area, and right next door or down the block! read more

The food is really flavorful and I enjoy coming here however I had a little bit of a weird experience where my partner and I were seated at the wooden bar table and another couple were seated directly next to us practically touching elbows, complete lack of any sort of social distancing as well as just being a bit awkward! if there was a little more space between the seats at the very small side bar table it wouldn't be a problem but because it is so small you definitely get extremely up close and personal with whoever sharing it with you haha read more

Really great Middle Eastern option in the area! I especially appreciate that they clearly label menu items that are gluten free and vegan! Their falafel over rice is delicious and is so well spiced. Love the spicy tahini sauce and za'atar fries too. They're a little pricy but they're so consistently good that I don't mind supporting them, especially during these tough times. read more

Bomb.com... service is awesome, food is yummy and wine is very good. Always a pleasure to eat here as these Palestinian Owners are sensitive to vegans and are willing to adjust their menu upon request. read more

This is a cute spot for a casual lunch in Beacon. I had the chicken shawarma wrap which was delicious. Loved the pickled veggies inside and the meat was nicely seasoned. Couldn't stop eating those seasoned crispy fries either. I finished with an Arabic coffee definitely different from regular coffee or even Turkish coffee but worth a try if you need a little afternoon caffeine. The presentation of the coffee is worth it! Server was very sweet and attentive. I would def recommend. read more

Loved the food. Loved the experience. Dining room is very small. Had the shawarma and the kofta kebab. The futur was an amazing eating experience. I'd give the good five stars. I'd give the service three or four. We would've enjoyed sitting at a table much more than at a side bar for our meal, but we elected to do so. It's byob place, but they were very nice. Overall... 4 stars. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by how good this place is. My husband is Egyptian and my Egyptian mother-in-law is a mean cook. We haven't had a lot of good experiences with Middle Eastern restaurants in the Hudson Valley, so we approach most with a good deal of skepticism. We had the medley appetizer which included hummus, oil with zatar, baba ghanoush, ful, falafel, salad, pickled vegetables. For dinner we split the chicken kebab over rice and salad. Everything we ate was just really well executed. We'll be back, for sure. read more

Ziatun - Appetizer spread - Middle Eastern Near Me - Beacon, New York

Ahhhhhhh-mazing! Everything! I mean everything that was brought to the table was perfectly made. The best falafel I've ever eaten; I've eaten a lot of falafel and recently I had reached a deep chasm of falafel disenchantment. This place has re-ignited my hope for humanity, and falafel as an edible -even deliciously tasty and moist- food. The fries are as if the gods' themselves are working the frier station. I can go on but stopping myself now is a good idea. Just eat here and don't look back. read more

Delicious, authentic eaterie in a beautiful town. Service was great and food was of an extremely high quality. Dishes were cooked perfectly, particularly the lamb, and the staff created a wonderful atmosphere for us. Thank you read more

Ziatun has delicious, authentic Palestinian food with many vegan options. The falafel burger I had was cooked to perfection, and finished off with a mouth watering spicy tahini sauce. I ended the meal with traditional arabic coffee, served by a very kind server. Definitely recommend to anyone passing through Beacon looking for a healthy and yummy Mediterranean meal. read more
