Zaitoon Kitchen was a great find. I'm sad to know that Zaitoon and I are not in the same city! We…read morewere passing through Albany on a Sunday and needed a casual restaurant for dinner. Zaitoon seemed to be interesting. So, we (a party of four) stopped by around 6pm. The ambiance is great: contemporary with natural decor elements and comfortable seats. They also have outdoor seating. Their menu appeared to be extensive. I asked for recommendations and immediately she captured my attention with a Jordanian dish with lamb shank over rice. One of us got that and I asked for the lamb shank over garden salad. The two others ordered grilled chicken wrapped in pita. We all loved our food. I especially enjoyed their White Sauce, which I think was Lebanese garlic sauce. They had something called Falooda for dessert. It's hard to explain it: combination of ice cream, pistachio, frozen vermicelli. All I know is that it was great! Prices were very reasonable. Service was great.

This place is a family-owned Persian restaurant like a gem sitting on the union street. We were…read morelucky to find a street parking Friday evening and got seated pretty fast without reservation. We started with the Mirza Ghasemi. I really like how the eggplants are roasted, the smoky side taste makes it super flavorful and distinct from a regular Baba Ghanoush. We got two entrées - the Ghormeh Sabzi and the Zereshk Polo. While I did enjoy my herbal-flavored sabzi, I had to say I was mind-blown by the Zereshk Polo. I can never forget how tender, smooth and juicy the chicken is. It is a bit loud with the table next to us having birthday celebrations but overall I love this place. Would love to try more things on their menu.

Many in our group got the lamb shanks which smelled delicious. I got a sampler consisting of probably the best olives I've ever had in my life, a wonderful yogurt dip with pita, and an eggplant with a bit of a smoky aftertaste that I didn't care for, but my friend absolutely loved. We ended the meal sharing a piece of baklava that was delicious & not overly sweet along with the Persian tea which had a lovely floral aroma. Others in our party had the pistachio cake which they described as light and fluffy. If you're looking for authentic Persian food at a reasonable price point in a nice setting, check this place out. As a sidenote, they don't serve alcohol, but you are allowed to bring your own bottle of wine!

The pita and hummus were also fresh too. I grabbed a box for my leftovers and had another meal out of it.

Prices were fair too, which is always a plus. The store itself was clean and had a bunch of stuff if you need to grab groceries. Overall it just felt like a solid, reliable spot.

The pita burgers a great and they're filling! We've tried all the protein options, but I think the beef is our favorite because the spices really stand out.

The bar feels really open and airy, and bartenders are always friendly and attentive, even when they're busy getting ready for evening service. We frequently go for HH on a Saturday around 5 and it's usually pretty quiet at the bar which we enjoy. Great place whether you've had Afghan food, or you are looking to try something different!
