Zaytinya offers a delightful Mediterranean experience that truly impresses. We opted for the tasting menu, which wowed us with generous portions and flavors bursting from each small plate. The roasted eggplant and crispy cauliflower were standout dishes.
The atmosphere strikes a fine balance between upscale and relaxed, perfect for a night out. While our server was friendly, they sometimes struggled to provide detailed menu explanations amidst the busy crowd. Still, it’s worth booking a reservation for this bustling spot. Don’t miss the cocktails - especially the margarita! 🌿
