The food was fantastic, and the tabbouleh vanished fast. I'm not saying there was a fight over the last bite... but let's just say friendships were tested. Zena's is definitely a winner!

It's only about 7 minutes from the parks, making it the perfect lunch or dinner spot if you're craving something flavorful that won't leave you feeling heavy. Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The spinach pastry was hands down my favorite, perfectly flaky with a delicious savory filling. The potato pastry was a close second and just as satisfying. If you visit, don't skip the pastries! We also tried the steak and chicken kebab combo plate, and both were cooked perfectly. The chicken was especially tender, juicy, and seasoned beautifully. You can actually watch the meat being cooked fresh in the back, which made the whole experience feel even more authentic. I ordered the veggie plate with falafel, baba ganoush, tabbouleh, hummus, and tahini sauce, and every single item was delicious. The falafel really stood out. It had a perfectly seasoned, crispy exterior with a soft, flavorful center. Dipping it into the baba ganoush, hummus, and tahini made every bite even better. One of my favorite things was that the meal was incredibly satisfying without feeling greasy or overly heavy. It was fresh, filling, and packed with flavor, but I still felt great afterward. The staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, and the service was impressively fast. They also have a great selection of Mediterranean spices if you want to bring some of those incredible flavors home. Huge compliments to the chef and the entire team. Between the fresh ingredients, authentic flavors, generous portions, and excellent service, Zait Zataar has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite Mediterranean restaurants. I'll absolutely be coming back!

We tried this restaurant one day while visiting the Muzeo museum across the street. My entire group was in love with the food from that moment. The food is all made super fresh and tastes great. I don't know what spices they sprinkle on their french fries, but it takes them to a new level. Simple shoe-string type fries, but they also taste awesome. My only issue would be drink choices. You can choose from a very small selection of canned/bottled drinks or a couple different vegetable/fruit waters they have in large jugs. I'm not fond at all of the two mint flavored waters they have, but their pineapple water is ok....a bit weak, but ok. Their watermelon water is the best. But I would much rather see a standard soda fountain there to get drinks as opposed to just these waters. If they had that option for drinks, it would get 5 stars. We've been back there almost a dozen times in the past year. Food remains top quality and super delicious. I highly recommend this place. read more

Having had lunch about 2 weeks ago I would have to say a bit pricey and semi authentic. Ordered a year ago and it should have been delicious but with all that lettuce and they're way too much of what was supposed to be you could barely taste the meat. And my friend had ordered salmon look delicious it was a bit dry overcooked late on the bed of rice surf like a spoonful of hummus and about four slices of pita, side green salad drenched and a very sweet sour vinaigrette the one meal with one sandwich one drink came to $42 for lunch. Ouch! Parking is free if you validate and you get about two hours, but it's very limited. Noise level get high, inside and outside seating cold and a bit uncomfortable on shaky tables and umbrellas to shade from the sun... Good atmosphere overall, if price is not in question?! Restroom you need a code and it's in the parking garage. Inconvenient for tge most part plus the homeless use it. Give them a try and make your own opinion. Happy yelping! read more

not a good experience. I was here before the pandemic and was excited to show my friends the place. we were putting three tables together by ourselves ( instead of telling the owner to do that ) to accomodate 7 of us, and we were told in the stern voice by the owner to " calm down" ( pardon me for being excited to be at your establishment !) +... it is never good for the owner to patronize the patrons, right? food was served in to-go boxes at the tables, and when I asked for paper plates, I was told no, and we had to cut to-go boxes in halves to use as plates.. no water glasses and had to buy bottle water... I won't come back here ... we should have left there after being admonished and walked to the pizza place 4 doors down ... too bad there is no choice of no star . have to give one star as the minimum. should be no star or negative five star ... read more

This was my second visit to Hummus Bean. I was impressed with my 1st experience. Tonight I placed an online order, like I did the time before. I received a confirmation email with my pickup time. When I arrived they said they hadn't received the order but they were having issues with their online system. I worked a 14 hour day and was extremely hungry. The workers immediately started my order and apologized for the inconvenience. Usually the story would end here... An apology followed by nothing. But this experience was different. The apology was followed by sincere customer service with a desire to go above and beyond, which is so rare these days. Hummus Bean just earned a customer for life. They treated me like I mattered! read more

Thankfully they are finally open after a very long wait. All of us neighborhood residents were waiting in anticipation for the day that we would have find Mediterranean food right outside of our door. It was certainly not a disappointment and well worth the wait. We did go on one of the opening nights so there are a few kinks which need to be ironed out customer service wise but the food was some of the best Mediterranean I have ever had. The hummus and pita, excellent, the falafel wrap over the top delicious, the gyro equally as delicious.... The fries were also very good however a tad a salty. Overall no real complaints and I will certainly go back again and again and again! read more

I recently had lunch at Lazeez Eats in Anaheim, and overall, it was a good experience. The food was really good -- fresh, flavorful, and clearly made to order. I ordered one of their burger combos, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The portion size was satisfying, and everything was well-seasoned. The service was standard -- nothing exceptional, but the staff was polite and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. I'd definitely come back for the food alone and recommend it to others. read more
