Nelly and I went to Zaytoon for lunch, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The gentleman behind the register and our waitress, Rahmeh, were both exceptional. They were warm, friendly, helpful, and you could genuinely tell they have kind souls. The food was amazing: fresh, authentic, healthy, and full of flavor. Zaytoon has that simple, homey, low-key feel, but the quality of the food is outstanding. They were also very accommodating with our requests, including no heavy butter on the rice, and they made great suggestions. They also have wonderful Middle Eastern desserts, which I'm excited to try next time, along with all kinds of authentic delicacies and specialty store goods you can bring home. I used to have a Jordanian woman work for me who made makdous, and I was so happy to see they had it there. You can tell this place is truly authentic and rooted in Middle Eastern flavor and hospitality. I highly recommend Zaytoon to anyone who loves Middle Eastern food or wants a fresh, authentic, welcoming meal. Thanks & God bless! Nick - Owner - Abel's Bagels, SW, LV, NV, @abelsbagelslv read more

This place has the BEST koobideh in town. I don't think any other restaurant can compete. Standout order -- I recommend getting Koobideh with half salad and half rice with sumac seasoning packets. I always call for pickup and it's always hits the spot! Service is A+++ read more

My family is always looking for Middle Eastern restaurants on our trips to Vegas. Loved visiting the marketplace and restaurant at Zaytoon Restaurant. It is the best one that we've found so far. Came to Zaytoon on a Friday night. Walked in and explored the marketplace while waiting for a table for three. Not sure if they take reservations. The marketplace is fabulous. Loved going up and down the aisles filled with so many amazing treats from the Middle East. Halva. Tahini. Spices like za'atar and sumac. Bamba. Bissli. Baked goods. Fruits and vegetables. Check out the extensive baklava offerings. Turkish Baklava. Armenian Baklava. Greek Baklava. Iranian Baklava. Filled with pistachios, walnuts, chocolate. Shaped like carrots, small squares, diamonds and mussels. The cases hold other sweet treats. Halva. Turkish Delights. Sold by the pound. They also have a large selection of Israeli and kosher products. They have Israeli snacks like Bamba and Bissli, challah, matzah and a kosher deli. They even have shampoo and soaps from Israel. Fun to shop for halva and baked goods, while we waited for a table. For dinner, started with a fresh shirazi salad and a Kashke Bademjaan, a fried eggplant dip. So delicious with the freshly baked flatbread! Loved the Fesenjaan. Tender cuts of chicken breast marinated in a pomegranate and walnut sauce served with basmati rice and shirazi salad. Fesenjaan is one of my favorite Persian dishes. Love the sweet and tangy sauce with the juicy chunks of chicken mixed with the basmati rice. I took half to go. Although my father-in-law wanted chicken or kebab, basmati rice and vegetables, the guys ordered two meatball specials. Two huge meatballs with basmati rice, my husband devoured his while my father-in-law took half to go. Finished the meal with fresh hot baklava. With honey, filo dough and chopped nuts, it was literally the sweetest way to end a delicious meal. Service from Saam and Rahmeh was wonderful. Our food was so delicious. Our hot tea and water glasses were always refilled. They checked on us as if they had welcomed us into their family home. Lots of parking available. It is about a 20 minutes drive from the strip. Or take an Uber. Definitely worth the drive to this restaurant and marketplace. Thanks again to Saam and Rahmeh for graciously welcoming us into their family restaurant. Highly recommended. read more

This is an excellent choice whether you are dining in or planning a private event. They are very well organized. Your order is ready and hot, they help you to the car, if needed. Very helpful in working with you to plan the menu. Saam is very courteous towards your budget and tries to insure you won't have unnecessary waste. As far as the food, AMAZING! My Glendale family was so impressed, as were each of our additional guests. I highly, highly recommend Zaytoon. Wonderful reminder of Persia Thank you again, Saam. read more

Return or not return? Maybe. Great reviews, great service, and food pleasant, but not outstanding. The benchmark for really good kebabs is DishDash (in the Bay Area) and they are not quite there. Started with complimentary bread - outstanding. Airy and light. I ordered the chicken kebab koobideh combo. Ended up being a little dry bc too much rice and one meager tomato and a little bit of onion. They charge $1.50 for another tomato, another $1.50 for extra onions, and then $2 for garlic sauce. These add-ons weren't powerful enough to over-ride the need for moisture. Garlic sauce tasted fine, but wasn't liquid-y enough. Falafel was a little dry as well, but the accompanying sauce helped a lot (and may be a better accompaniment for the kebab). I actually enjoyed the koobideh over the kebab. Nice flavor and consistency. Overall, not a bad experience though not something where I'd echo the over the top reviews. read more

Zaytoon Restaurant - Chicken and Koobideh Kabob - pleasant but not a wow - Mediterranean Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

This is usually my go-to place for takeout but decided to dine in this time. Staff was super friendly! Can't get Persian food at many places in Summerlin area. Definitely will be returning for in house dining. My daughter and I share this dish and they were nice enough to split the plates for us. So the photograph only shows half portion. So much food in one entree! So good! Baklava for dessert was delicious as well! read more

I have been ordering food here for years. I can't decide which is better: food or service. I've never had a bad meal. The consistency and quality is unmatched. This restaurant feels like coming home, the attention to detail makes you feel seen. From knowing your name and order to adding a tea for brewing to your to go order for enjoyment after dinner. Zaytoon is a nostalgic restaurant- reminding Me of a time dining out had value and felt special. read more

An adoring shout out again to Zaytoon for a fabulous lunch during a weekend visit. We brought family who had never been there and they all loved it. They will all be coming back as they are locals now that they have experienced the lovely service and outstanding food. We ordered multiple dishes of our favorite Chicken Soltani for all of us. We love this amazing and delicious dish! Every bite is a delight. The chicken is outstanding and not dry, but juicy and flavorful. I love the rice, grilled tomatoes and onions too! We had great service and welcoming friendliness as always and it's always nice to see Saam and everyone on the staff! We'll be coming back each time we come to visit Las Vegas. read more

Been coming here for years, most recently June 5th. Never disappoints. Best Persian cuisine in Vegas. Can't forget the humus and flatbread. Had the Soltoni this time. Outstanding!! read more

I so wanted to love this place! It's worth a visit, just not up to the standard of my favorite Persian restaurant, Noon o Kebab in Chicago. The best: relaxed atmosphere, tasty gheimeh, zereshk polo with lots of tart barberries, various interesting groceries in the attached store. The disappointing: lamb shank in bland tomato sauce, soggy baklava. I asked which were the crispiest baklava options, and tried every variety the staff suggested, but the answer was: none of them. We need to come back and try the fessenjan. read more

Amazing Market/Restaurant. Awesome customer service as well. You feel like you're visiting someone's home and are receiving the most hospital hosts. I highly recommend visiting and trying the Barg and Koobideh. Or just get the Soltani because you get both, and make sure to get the Animal Style if you like a bit of spice and sauce. The market side is also awesome, so make sure to check that out as well. Be sure to get there early or not during lunch time because it gets packed quick, and rightfully so. read more

We have gotten carry out 5 times now from Zaytoon. This time we stopped in at the market as well. I can officially say I have a new favorite restaurant in all of the Las Vegas metropolitan area. Hands down. From the fantastic food, to the incredibly kind workers to the wonderful market, this place has everything I've ever wanted in a single location. It reminds me of home and it gives me great comfort. read more

Food: Amazing. I was craving good koobideh kabob and zereshk polo and this place did not disappoint. It tasted like home cooking to me and I was so so pleased with it. Fresh, hot, juicy and long strips of meat in the entree plate was exactly what I needed. The zereshk was plentiful and gave a sweet flavor to the rice. The usual grilled tomato was also juicy. Service: Fast and friendly. They are very welcoming and are great about refilling drinks when needed. The food came out reasonably quickly and I have zero complaints about that. Ambiance: Feels like a normal, family friendly place to bring everyone or meet with a friend over a good meal. They decorated with quotes that attempt to give a pleasant and positive atmosphere. I'd honestly eat there again even if it were just a takeout window. The food was that good. Hope to be back next time I visit! read more

Having lived in LA for many years we love good Persian food and this was excellent!! Everything we ordered was delicious and flavorful, we started with the hummus, so tasty! I ordered the lamb chops super juicy and cooked to perfection with rice. My hubby had the combo of beef and chicken kabobs again so delicious! The staff is beyond friendly, the gentleman who greeted us was so polite and the young lady who I assume is part of the family was so nice with a pretty smile. It's a quaint little spot so you feel like you are almost at a friends place. We will be back even though we live on the other side of town l! read more

This family owned restaurant also has a market inside. Restaurant isn't big but it was busy and numerous to go orders were being made. This was our first time trying Iranian food and it was delicious! Our server was great, she was so friendly. For starters we ordered their homemade Hummus and Masto Kahir (home made yogurt and cucumber) with their fresh warm bread. We tried their most popular dish - Koobideh Kabob and a side of lamb chops, we wanted to try. The basmati rice with saffron had a light and airy taste not too heavy. For dessert we tried a Pistachio ice cream sandwich made with saffron and rose water with a light waffer. Everything was delicious! We will definitely come back! read more

I eat here often and the food is so heavenly. I love everything but my favorite dish is the ghormeh sabzi. The price is very good for the quality of food. Some of the spices used are expensive such as saffron and so I really appreciate this is food I couldn't just as easily make myself. Additional this is a family friend,y place and while the dining side is small they are extremely accommodating towards children. I have always been met with a smile and never rush in anyway. I love coming here and then being able to shop next door it's kinda perfect if you ask me! read more

This a hidden secret. My friend Reza took me and I can't wait to go back. A new experience in Persian food. I felt like was in the home of the chef which I met with his wife. Our server spook beautiful French while you could hear patrons speaking Farsi. The Lavash was best I've had. The dual rice with saffron and barberry was new to me and delicious. The chicken w turmeric and meat kabobs were perfect with charred onion and tomato. The quaint atmosphere connected to very well stocked market was an additional bonus. I original art (by owner) was mesmerizing. I can't wait to share Zaytoon with my friends. -John Payne read more

Instantly impressed with the vibe, customer service, and the ambient smells of the food being served in this restaurant as soon as we walked in for the very first time. It is a very intimate dining room sharing the space with a gorgeous boutique market that is extremely clean, well stocked, fresh, and brimming with Persian and other Middle Eastern groceries. Everything on the menu looked delectable, and the prices are very fair. Portion sizes were perfect on our plates and the plates of the tables next to us. Three business partner owners were working together with a very attentive staff. Everyone seemed to really enjoy working there and there was a personal touch unlike any other restaurant that I frequent in town. All of the dining customers seemed very pleased with their choices, and the general vibe was very happy and content. This will be a new regular dining experience for me and I'm really looking forward to trying new things on their menu that I'm less familiar with and introducing other friends to this place. read more

This place is dangerously close to my home and attached to an adorable and authentic middle eastern grocery store. At first I didn't realize the restaurant was connected to the grocery, but that just makes sense. I interacted with three different people while taking my to go order and they were all sincere and seemed grateful for my business. Love they asked if I wanted hot sauce and offered the sumac because that was a flavor I had not previously experienced. All the workers were hugging people in the restaurant and that is *always* a good sign in my book. But now. The real reason you're here. I opted for the chicken soltani kabobs that came with fire roasted onion, tomato and I did half salad half rice, as well as a side of shirazi salad after I saw pictures. The salads were honestly my favorite things! Super fresh and not heavy. Wonderful flavor. The dill dressing has a tang that I'm obsessed with. Also got the bread (way bigger than I expected!) kind of cracker where the bubbles were and a more chewy, thinner type lavash and the baklava! I had one bite of the baklava before I ate my food and knew I had to put it on the other side of the room so I didn't eat all my dessert first. Next time I'll be sure to get pickles and a sauce to go with, if I'm getting kabobs, but hoping to try something different on the next go round. I think I dropped the ball not eating while in the restaurant so I could've clarified. Kind of on the pricey side, but that's life nowadays. Definitely worth checking out! read more

The food is amazing at Zaytoon! My daughter and I were at Claw World. After playing at Claw World, we decided to grab some dinner at Zaytoon Restaurant! Zaytoon Restaurant is located at Twain/Durango inside a large shopping plaza. The restaurant also has a market space inside too that has a deli and fresh juice! Zaytoon offers a wide range of kabobs, seafood, specialty dishes like Gheimeh, sandwiches, and so much more! The service here is outstanding! When we first walked in, the team members greeted us and informed us that we could sit at any open table. When we found a table, immediately, a team member brought over waters and a menu. Since it was our first time here, it took us several minutes to review the menu. My daughter enjoyed looking at all of the pictures next to each entree! She ended up selecting the Lamb Chops with Rice! One of the team members had recommended the Chicken Soltani, which had a chicken kabob and beef kabob. While waiting for the entrees, complimentary bread was provided with butter. It was like a giant cracker with seasonings on top! It was delicious! Everything was cooked fresh. We didn't mind the wait time as it was busy inside the restaurant! We ended up waiting about 30 minutes for the entrees, but it was totally worth it! It was my daughter's first time having a lamp chops. She thought it was some of the best food that she had ever had! It was tender and juicy! I really enjoyed the chicken kabob and beef kabob. The chicken was scrumptious! It was cooked perfectly. I ended up mixing the rice and chicken together. The beef kabob was so delicious! You could taste the marinated beef with all of the different ingredients like salt and pepper. It was charred perfectly, and tender! I would order the chicken Soltani again! Each entrée had a side of rice, grilled tomato, and onion! The food is amazing here!! The service, though, was exceptional!!! The team here is so friendly, checking up on every table and talking to all of the customers! It was such a great experience! read more

As the eldest occupant of Global West Plaza and the oldest Persian Restaurant In Las Vegas Zaytoon is more easily overlooked than many local eateries, but using the same recipes for decades the space on Durango is a breath of fresh air in a time when authenticity is often lacking. Family owned and the combination of eatery plus market, the later featuring imported goods as well as groceries, plates come from a kitchen steeped in tradition such that everything from Lavash to several styles of Baklava are made on-site daily. Muslim owned and Halal-certified, a name that translates as Olive seemingly appropriate for peaceful confines, guests can expect Kabobs served at a fair price though the real highlights come from Stews such as bold Ghormeh Sabizi and Fesenjaan that is complex but not overly sweet like many. read more

Zaytoon is located at Global Plaza West on Durango and Spring Mountain. You'll find them behind Brewske's Pub & Grill, next to Chicago Style Pizza. There's plenty of parking available. Inside is a market and restaurant. They offer various types of baklava from Iranian, Mediterranean, and Turkish. The restaurant has a casual and relaxed atmosphere with few seating for eight tables and awesome music. Menu has a nice selection of Persian appetizers, soup, entree, seafood, special dishes, sandwiches, a la carte, and desserts. House Salad ($6.99) has crisp lettuce with fresh cucumbers and tomatoes served with creamy dill dressing. Kashke Bademjaan ($7.99) is delicious! It's savory fried eggplant dip with a lovely drizzle of kashke and fried mint, served with thin crispy bread. Turkish Coffee ($4) has a rich flavor, very strong, and comes in a cute coffee cup. Ice Cream ($6.99) is aromatic and delightful! It's Iranian Pistachio Ice Cream flavored with saffron and rosewater, not too sweet, and so yummy! Service from Rahmeh and Kallo is wonderful and superb! Everyone in the staff is very welcoming, attentive, personable, and friendly. Food is made fresh, quick, and delivered promptly. read more

When you come here it's like they're inviting you over for dinner. They prepare every meal like you're a guest in their home and they treat you like family. Service is great! Food is great! I was introduced to Persian food by my wife when we first started dating, after nine years and MANY different Persian restaurants later I can say with confidence that Zaytoon is the best! I've told my wife many times if I could choose a last meal I would want it to be Zereshk Polo from Zaytoon. Please know if you read any 1 star reviews speaking ill of this place that that person had to have wronged the servers or owners in some way. One only needs to sit inside once and watch as ppls faces light up as they come into the business and are greeted by the owners. read more
