I ordered: * bacon egg empanada * almond croissant * blueberry scone They tasted good, but I wish they were flakier/more buttery. I'd try them again, prob earlier in the day to see if they'd be fresher but only if I was already in the area.

Main St. in El Cajon has become a hub for Mediterranean/Middle Eastern grocery stores and another…read moreone has opened, Big Bear Produce. What an adorable name, right? They even have a bear on their big, bright signage. For me what sets them apart is that they're a full-service market compressed in a smaller, easily navigable space. They have a hot food section offering beef and chicken shawarma and a handful of other dishes like lentil soup, rice and potatoes. They make their own bread and baklava (they're pretty good!) and also have a meat section with halal/non-halal meats. The staff here has always been friendly and greet me with a smile when I walk in. On one occasion when I picked up some beef shawarma, the lovely lady threw in two complimentary sammoon bread with my order! How sweet of her :) btw they cut their shawarma really thick here...and it's always been very moist and nicely seasoned. Delish! Produce is fresh and reasonably priced. It may be limited at times, but they always have a decent selection. It's my new favorite Mediterranean grocery store.

The ambience and design of the restaurant is very lovely. A special thank you to Hasina, the server who took wonderful care of us and made sure we had a great experience. We ordered a ton of food, and each dish we ordered was cooked to perfection. We did wait a little bit for our food to arrive but my family isnt the type to rush so that's not a personal issue for us. We enjoyed complimentary chicken soup while we waited, and took advantage of the self-serve tea station. We ordered both the kala pacha and pacha (stewed lamb head, and cow's feet) , a traditional dish that my family enjoys but is hard to find at restaurants. So imagine our joy when we saw it on Zaytoon's menu! The portions were hearty and big, and the dish was aromatic, nicely spiced, and perfectly cooked. It was paired with fresh naan bread, which was delicious and quality as well. The bolani was very nicely spiced, and we ordered a mix between gandana (chives) and potatoes. The filling was savory and delicious, and the homemade dough was thin which we prefer for bolani. The portion was very much worth the price, compared to other places. We also ordered mantu and Afghan qabooli rice, both of which were just as great as the other items we ordered. Looking forward to revisiting this place again, and very excited to see a new Afghan restaurant in town! PS: word on the street is that they also have sheer yakh (Afghan ice cream) , we didnt eat it this time but will definitely be trying it in the future.

Decent amount of donuts available and a pretty vast menu (lunch mainly). I was craving a BEC bagel so went with that. Bagel was missing the freshness I'm used to. Everything tasted like it was microwaved instead of made fresh to order. Bagel was slightly chewy. Bacon and egg were definitely reheated. I would come back to give another shot but only if items are being made fresh.
