    This place is great. The restaurant is clean and very well-kept, the server was extremely attentive and kind and the food was delicious. Everything tasted fresh and the pitas were soft and warm! I will definitely be putting this restaurant into my lunch rotation.

    First time here. We are new in the Kendall area so we found this Mediterranean food gem.Everything was amazing. Location is nice quiet and simple decoration.Fast & wonderful service, Food was delicious, we ordered Kibbeh, Falafel, Kafta and Shawarma pizza. We were in a hurry so Joseph, the owner or manager had the kindness of giving us a free baklava sample to go so we can try some dessert. Definitely worth it another visit and you guys at Zaytona grill just gained 2 new happy customers

    Amazing! Food and service are amazing! We went on the advice of family. I love Mediterranean food I'm slowly introducing my husband. We started our meal with a beef samosa that came out hot and fresh. We won't share next time! Then I had the Chicken Shwarma platter with Kibbeh and sweet carrot salad soooo good I ordered two kibbeh to go. Decided to end the meal with the Lotus cake! OMG! Our beautiful waitress said her Mom makes it. It's my husbands new favorite! Our waitress also gave us some Turkish coffee we had tried it before and weren't fans. I don't know what they do but it was soooooo good! Highly recommend

    All I can say is wow miami needed a spot like this. Food was incredible. So fresh so tasty and clean! We ordered the kibbeh and falafel and they were both incredible. We also got three chicken shwarmas one with hummus and salad one with babaganoush and salad and one with fries and rice pilaf. You cannot go wrong with any of these sides or the chicken. The carrot salad is sweet with a little kick and so delicious and the samosas are more like empanadas but so so good. We have already gone back twice in 1 week. Service was great and the ambiance is casual with a little grocery corner in the back. 5/5!

    Loved the food and the service. The meat was so flavorful and tender, all of the food is homemade and made with love. The service is fantastic. Love this restaurant and we will be back again soon!

    This is place is delicious! Everything was flavorful. Loved the chicken and beef. My husband and I did a combo and shared it, more than enough food! The kale salad was seasoned to perfection and tasted so fresh and so good! Oh and the customer service?! Amazing. They're so kind and thoughtful. My husband has nut and seafood allergies and they were so mindful and made sure everything he ate was safe! 100% recommend this place! A nice cozy family friendly restaurant. They also told me they're working on this liquor license because I asked for some wine haha!

    I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Zaytona Grill. Before making a 45-minute drive, we called ahead to make sure they were open and could accommodate us for a late lunch. We were traveling with three other families, including children and a child with special needs, and came specifically looking for halal food while visiting from another state. When we arrived, we were asked how many people were in our group. After we explained that we were a total of 13 people, the employee spoke to another staff member, who then abruptly told us they were closed and could not take our order. We explained that we had called ahead before driving there, but he dismissed our concerns and said they had a family problem. What made the situation even more frustrating was that there were still customers eating inside, the "Open" sign was lit and hanging outside, and the business hours were still displayed. Instead of trying to communicate respectfully , the staff became rude and confrontational. Another staff member approached aggressively, and one of our friends was pushed during the interaction. The customer service was shockingly poor, and the behavior of the owner and staff was completely unprofessional. After making a long trip with multiple families and children, we were treated with disrespect and hostility. It was a very disappointing

    I was driving around and found this lovely place. Goo was delicious and the attention from the waiters were superb.

    We stopped at Zaytona Grill for a quick meal and loved the food. This is a need restaurant to Kendall and I'm super happy that we discovered it. Their food is very fresh and tasty. One item I would skip is the baklava, the portion is extremely tiny.

    Carrot n raisin side dish. Awesome hummus!

    I came here with some friends for Happy Hour and absolutely had a blast. We were there from 5 PM to…read more8:30 PM and did not feel rushed. Even after paying, the staff continued to make sure we had water and asked if we needed anything else. This small gesture meant a lot. Sufrat has a great happy hour menu that ends at 6 PM. I tried the Moroccan Mojito, which was so refreshing. To eat, we tried the Shawarma Sushi and $1 chicken wing. The Shawarma Sushi name can be a bit misleading. It a wrap that was cut in form of sushi. It was good. I was hesitant about ordering chicken wings but I'm so glad we did because they were so delicious and crispy. They may have been the best chicken wing I've had. The service was excellent. I accidentally dropped my cocktail and they immediately cleaned it up and moved us to another clean table. I apologized for dropping it but not once did they made me feel bad about it. Instead, one of the staff stated it was an indication of having a great time. They also replaced my drink at no extra cost. A guy, who I assumed was the manager or owner, also passed by our table and ensured we were enjoying our time. Our server mistakenly brought me the wrong drink that I ordered, but I did not mind it because I actually loved the Moroccan Mojito and instead ordered another one. I also loved how they have copper cups because it makes water taste so much better. Their attention to small details like that makes the difference. Overall, I felt so welcomed and definitely have to return for more chicken wings.

We ordered the beef kabobs, which were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Unfortunately, the ribeye steak was a major disappointment. We ordered it medium well, but it came out extremely overcooked, dry, and tough, with hard charred pieces on the outside. It was clear that steak is probably not their specialty. That said, we would still recommend this restaurant for the atmosphere, service, and many of the other menu items -- just skip the steaks.

LOVE THAT THIS IS ALLDAY BREAKFAST TOO! more restaurants need to be less restrictive with their breakfast/dinner menus like this! The seating area was small, so I imagine this is more of a to go experience. But it still felt comfortable and it was just us that were there sitting. Need to go back and try their shawarma pizza.

    Two of the things attract me to try a new place are local neighborhood restaurants and family owned…read morebusinesses. This one checked off both of those boxes. And so I have now visited three times. Or I should say two since one was a delivery order. This is a rather long review so in case you don't wanna read the whole thing, here's the summary. This place is great. Food is great. Service is great. Restaurant is beautiful. Done. Now everybody else, please read on. I will start with the delivery order. I had a desire for falafel for lunch and found the excellent reviews of this particular restaurant and figured I would give it a try. Did the order through DoorDash and received it much quicker than expected. The falafel was exceptional. Shaped a little bit strangely because they overloaded the scooper to give you more, it was expertly seasoned, freshly made, and delicious. Definitely within my top three in Miami and being right near my home will sit at number one on my list. The fact that they were able to get the order out to DoorDash and arrive at my home still warm, gets it extra points. But the delicious flavor, crunchy on the outside soft on the inside, and even a delightful aroma was really overwhelming. Paid for six got seven! Recently paid for five elsewhere and got four. Again extra points for a wonderful portion. But then look at what is surrounding it. Excellent smoky flavored eggplant. Delicious lentils and rice. Exceptional hummus. Fresh pita. Not a fan of tabouli to begin with so I won't comment except to say it was as good as it gets. Overall, I loved everything on the plate and loved everything about it. Came here for lunch one day with my wife. She had a falafel sandwich which I didn't take note of as I should have because I was so overwhelmed by my delicious lamb Shawarma platter. Again with all the best sides and the baba ghanoush was as good as any I've ever had. But the lamb was so moist and savory and tasty. I've gotta say that their attention to flavor is evident in everything that they serve. And then my other visit. This one was breakfast. Boarded my puppy last night so that my wife and I could have a romantic evening out for her birthday and picked her up this morning and wanted to take her for breakfast. Was thrilled to see that pesto Café and Grill as outside seating. I ordered the lox omelette and a side of bacon. I had coffee and they brought her a nice bowl of water. It does not come with a bagel so there is an up charge which I found mildly annoying but I wanted to try the full experience so I ordered anyway. It also comes with hashbrowns, which I wasn't particularly interested in, but it came with the meal. They make their lox omelette with onions and capers, and I noticed some green onions as well. They also use cream cheese, which I'm not generally a fan of. Since moving to Miami, I see way too much cream cheese being used in way too many ways. What is with this Miami obsession with cream cheese? Some places even put it in my sushi. Blasphemy. Oh but that's not part of this review perfect; for this review I am going to reverse everything I isually say about cream cheese because the flavorful way that they blend this imtoy the omelette as a condiment and not something that overpowers the other flavors was spectacular. I could not enjoy it more. The bacon was a huge order and was cooked perfectly. I hate sloppy greasy bacon. It was as if they knew exactly how I would want it served. Or maybe they just have good taste and serve it like how I like it. My waitress, Kayla was exceptional as well. But the service did not end there. Multiple people from inside came out periodically to make sure that I was happy outside and had everything I needed; that my coffee was full, and my water glass was filled and my table was cleared to unused dishes. They even made sure my dog had water and kept an eye on her water bowl so that it did not get too empty. Who does this? I'll tell you, they do. Eat here I know you will get great food made from the best ingredients and cooked perfectly and served treating you like they you as a customer. Even after I paid, they continued to come outside and make sure I didn't need anything else and fill my coffee without pushing me to leave and allowing me to enjoy my wonderful breakfast. And then to relax and enjoy the beautiful day out in front of their restaurant and be pampered. I didn't just feel like they cared, I realized that they really do. I will be back. Often. I will order from DoorDash from here. Often. And I will recognizing this on social media and recommend it to everyone I know. Often. Because you do not come across a place like this very often.
