Visited my go-to restaurant for Dine-in after a pretty loooong time. It didnt disappoint. Food was served fast. Everything was as it should be. The portions in each serving is more than enough for two. Tried Crab๐ฆ Tawa Fry for the first time here....Really loved it ๐. P.S it has a very strong crab flavour so some may not like it.
This place was so good to have lunch nd dinner.. the taste of food was nice to have.. but one major issues is cost.. yeah the cost is very high.. it takes atleast 1k for 2 person.. otherwise it was chill.. they even allow to cut the cake for the birthday inside the restaurant.. it was a nice experience to do..
As usual best restaurant for Arabic food. Clean and tidy. Service is good ๐
Dont order biriyani worster than worst. But other dishes are really awesome especially naan
I should let the world know.. this place is blessing in the covid times... Seating arrangement is good with social distancing and feels much safer than Adyar branch. Food is excellent. Helpful service.. Must try restaurant... Its not on the main road but not difficult to locate in the heart of the city.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Taste was really good. Shawarma is a must try. Quantity is also good. We tried grilled chicken which was really really good.The staff also serves you very well and they are well behaved. Seating arrangements and overall interior of the restaurant is also good.
The place turned out to be better than what I expected. The best thing about this place is that there was ample amounts of spacing between the tables. The lighting was pretty good as well. The service was good but could have been better. The taste was great for the asking price and the order was served quickly.
Good ambience and the dishes were really excellent. The taste of the dishes will make us to try once again.
The most spacious zaitoon in chennai. only drawback is car parking. Please provide a dedicated parking space instead of park on the road
Quality of food is t same like before. Not sure if this is due to their chefs or the lockdown effect. I hope they get back to their standards soon
Had a team lunch with a set menu today. Excellent service by the staff and very delicious food too. We had Lamb starters, kozi dejaj, tasty chicken curry with Nan and Zaitoon favaco to end with. Since we booked in advance we had a very good table arrangement done too.
Today we went to Zaitoon at Nungambakkam...Food was really good but while doing billing they are increasing the rate...Randomly we checked...and found that for every food item the rate was not what was given in the menu card.So when you go this restaurant...pls check the rate before paying the bill.
Good food but very crowded place. We had to wait for 30 mins on Saturday night and most of the dishes we ordered went out of stock. Was disappointed and had to settle for what they had. First time having a mediocre experience at zaitoon
Service is good! Briyani is okay not great!Indian Breads are good!
Developing one of the finest chain of restaurants in tamilnadu.. recently visited this after Madurai zaitoon visit. Good place staff are polite and professional
Went there by 3 pm on Saturday. Thought it would be empty. But I was wrong. We had to wait there for more than 15 mins. The service was kinda slow. Not sure whether its because of the crowd but if you lack the patience , you wont feel like dining here. The food was as usual tasty. Their faloodas are the best in the desserts. Good for group lunches. They do have valet parking.
Waiting time was more than 20 mins.. Fish fingers and tawa finish were just average.. Nalli soup was good.. Not worth the wait and the price
Good restaurant in chennai city... We can get authentic arab foods...variety of dishes.. They must open branches all over the city..
Ambience and service has always been good in zaitoon but the sweet corn soup has absolutely raw vegetables and the platter we ordered was also pretty old. Schezwan rice was decent
Great place to dine in for starters and main course.Take away is also available.Quality and tastes are good.Clean environment with good Ambience. Staff are friendly.Parking space is there for two wheeler and Four wheeler.Payments options such as Google Pay, Credit card/ Debit cards, Cash payments are accepted.
Great food! There were a few flies near my table, dont take the corner table I guess?
Went to Zaitoon yesterday, definitely not a good experience. Probably this wasnโt a right time for us to try this restaurant we can feel some pretty aged ingredients. We had fish sizzler and the fish was old and definitely not a sea fish and the sauce was not just a gravy. Then chicken al faham that was so bad. Chicken was dry and not juicy and hummus tasted like chutney. Brownie sizzler is an ok dish, with brownie to be too hard. Definitely not worth the hype really disappointed.
The food was pathetic. Soup was great. Biryani, Fish finger and Milk shake were a big let down.I love Zaitoon, but this time (11 July 2021), I was disappointed to the core. You cannot charge so much and provide a substandard meal.The standard on that particular day, is how you lose customers.
My personal favourite restaurant in Chennai is Zaitoon Velachery but didnt like the service in Nungambakkam branch.
Good food, less waiting time (weekday and covid times), cost is more but it is ok as the food taste is good and service was fast
Great dishes, hygienic and good customer service. The waiters are very attentive towards customers.
Had 100 times here nevertheless felt bored.Quality and quantity best + pricing no hotel can beat this affordable price
Good ambience n tasty food, must visit for all non veg lovers.
Best ambience.. my always go to place
Good food. Desserts are very best. Maybe because its Chennai or maybe something else but I found some of the main courses bland. Starters are superb though. Enjoy this place on a weekend๐
I never expected the cream of mushroom soup to be so sweet that even after adding a generous amount of pepper, the soup was still tasting sugary. The chicken lollipop was good and so was the BBQ chicken, which was a bit spicy. The boneless BBQ fish was good too except for the peanut sauce accompaniment which had too much oil floating. The chicken shawarma roll with kubus as its base wasnt worth the price as it was hardly half the size of an actual shawarma roll. Didnt try any main course or desserts as these items made me feel full.
Food was good, prior bookings are advised if your going as a group. Prices are modarate.
A wonderful experience with great taste.Services and taste are top notch.Choose for platters if you are going with your friends.Very hygenic food.Overall a best place to have a great lunch
Recently visited to the place!!! Ambience and food tasted nice however a big time failure servers arent aware of the table orders moreover accompaniments going missing upon asking for a simple pickle it is being informed by one personnel that its not available wherein other one brings post meal.Secondly bills are charged for what you have ordered even though if it has been sent on table or not. I ordered for my parcel which never came and the bill was charged for highly disappointed.Note- please recheck for what you are paying.
We hang out more to this place with my colleagues . A perfect Arabic restaurant within nungambakkam. Highly recommended dishes are seafood platter and crispy lamb honey
Ordered some food from Zaitoon the other day. Really loved the the Chicken Shawarma roll and the Chicken Alfaham Dajaj. I also ordered Laham Tawa Roll but it had cucumber in it which felt weird inside a roll. All in all, the food tasted good and was satisfactory. Surely gonna order more from here.
Ok ok
Good food. Well behaved and responsive waiters. Food was served pretty quick.
Good place to have multi cuisine foods. Visited recently and tried jeera/ghee rice this time than my usual Arab dishes. It was awesome with bought curries. They have really proved on the taste once again not only on Arabic dos but also on continental.
The food was great and the waiter whose name was Omar served us well. The service should have been faster.Overall a good experience.
Great ambience, behavior of staff was also nice and food was also great
The food was good for the sake of taste but the rice are very oily and barley eatable thinking of how much weight your gone gain. And the service is 3/10. They forget what weโve ordered and we have to keep asking what we ordered.
Loved the taste. Awesome !!
I have visited recently this resturant with my family and relatives for wedding treat.Really amazing atmosphere, delicious food and well care from staff. Thanks!
Good. Priyani only i disappointed. Other foods are good. Neet and peaceful indoor setup. I like it.
Excellent.....I never thought of this much good restaurant will be available at Chennai. They are serving halal foods. Well behaved employees as well multi language talking. Because I am from Bangladesh.....I think it will help others as well.
Have tried with platter. Awesome taste and the best price ever seen.... But took 40 minutes to serve food... Which was unbearable time.....๐ฅบ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ.. other items tried. Dont ever go for biryani. ๐๐
The food and ambience is really good. My favrt dishes are kozi laham, zaitoon spcl bbq, and kunafa
Courteous and friendly. Expensive. Shawarma not good. Bbq chicken good. Soups not good
Amazing chicken shawarma and Zaitoon special barbeque chicken. Food here always live up to my expectations. I once had Haleem here, it was a new dish but I loved it. Its a must try for mutton lovers. Id would love to try other dishes. Its located right on the main road, very easy to find. The ambiance is great and this could pass as a super hygienic place.
Good,Clean and hygine but need some extra space for wash room. Some recipes need extra spicy taste. Overall good and neat
Over crowded. Staff was unable to handle
Good food at comparatively lower prices
It has one of the worst service. The waiters are so inexperienced. There is no one to greet you at the entrance when you enter the restaurant. Even after entering they just ignore you. You have to find a seat by yourself like as if you are going to Sangeetha or Saravana Bhavan. After you are seated, they still done come to serve you table. A staff was clearing the neighbouring table and he dropped an empty water bottle on the side of the table. He never came back to pick up the bottle.As for the food, I cant complain much but it wasnt that great.Will I go to Zaitoon again? Well, definitely NOT to the Nungambakkam branch. If the staff are trained so badly and they still charge you an arm and a leg for the food, why go there. I would rather go somewhere else.
Amazing Arabian taste loved the chicken
Awesome ambience! The food is delectable and the staff is courteous
Not very clean.. no social distancing...
The food is good and the quantity served was also good.
Arabian swarma and many dishes to taste. Always crowded you have to wait on Saturday and sunday for table. A place where you can eat stomach full for the money you spent.
Food, service, cleanliness everything is fine but charging for drinking water is not acceptable..
Nice ambience. Timely Services. Vallet parking is available as the parking is tricky.
Super and tasty food value for money
Must try thier Turkish desert kunafa but price is exhobitant
Dinning at its best from the all the Zaitoon branches. Hygiene maintained, sanitizer placed at every table. Waiters are wearing mask.
Very good for kabab and Arabian food. There others Curry are good โบ๏ธ
