3/23/24: my last review was from 2/2023 and although I am months late updating y'all, I have to say Zeta's is still an excellent place to eat. This particular Saturday in March we tried different dishes and every one was awesome. Zeta's pita bread is still the best we've eaten; the Lebanese sausage had a bit more spice than I typically like, but nothing that burned my gullet on the way down; the meat rolls were a nice finger food, although the sauce would not be my first choice for them; the spicy potatoes definitely had a kick to them (again, nothing that hurt, ha ha); and lastly, the sanbousek cheese pastries (deep fried cheese in a pastry, hello?! what's not to love). Our server was talkative and friendly, plus Zeta's has some wonderful decor. This trip I noticed all the drinkware, so cool. You have to try Zeta's if you love Mediterranean food. read more

This was a special occasion for my wife and I because our granddaughter had flown from Washington to compete in a regional gymnastics competition in Goodyear. She placed in the top 5 overall. After the event we went to Zeta's Grill. That's when we realized we had scored a gold metal with the delicious meal selections and wonderful atmosphere. No blaring TV or loud music. A wonderful and memorable evening with my family at Zeta's Grill. read more

The food the ambience service seem to be pretty good. We will most likely be giving this place. Another try.

My family and I went to Zaida's Grill for lunch. The waiter was extremely helpful with our food selection. We tried the lamb kebab & the Zeta's combo special. Both were fantastic but our favorite part was the delicious pistachio baklava (dripping with honey)....yum! read more

We live close to Zetas and we have frequented there many times over the years. My wife is a big Mediterranean fan so this was always the closest restaurant to scratch that itch. In our return to Zetas we have always enjoyed the service. Personable and patient since they have a pretty deep menu of choices. Most of the time we would get hummus however, word to the wise, they bring you olive oil and a version of a pita that helps tide you over till your meal comes. The ambiance is simple with a couple of TVs to break up the wait but mostly set up minimally. This night we ordered Chicken schwarma and Beef and Lamb schwarma. While the portions were large, coming with a salad, pita, and potato of choice (Spicy and Greek), the meat was not to my liking. Probably just a preference thing and not a knock on Zetas themselves, but it was over spiced and oily since there were puddles in our plates. At the End of the Day it just wasn't what we remembered from past experiences. Either that or we have found other Mediterranean options that are in our circumference that we have really grown to enjoy. We may give Zetas another chance in the future but not in the near future. read more

I have has their food before but only through Togo. It was so so good! When I got the opportunity to get out and go to lunch. We got there! It was a bit crowded, but got a table. We looked through the lunch specials. The Chicken Shawarma Pita Wrap (Marinated chicken in a white vinegar lemon garlic sauce, served with French fries inside our fresh village thin bread, tomatoes, pickles and topped with cream of garlic) caught my eye. They provided pita bread with olive oil to started off. The food is so good, but the service is incredibly SLOW. I will be back because of the food, but I hope the next time the service picks up! read more

Stopped by for a late lunch and tried the Marinated Chicken Kabob and Tabouleh Salad. Food was fresh and delicious. Service was nice and attentive. Thank you. read more

I walked in and was instantly hit with nostalgia. My grandmother's kitchen for Sunday dinner. The smells were amazing. My Lebanese family was passing through. I needed appetizers and fast. The babaganoush was creamy, perfect amount of garlic and eggplant. Yum! We had the olive plate, perfect size. Kalamata olives, lift (pickled turnips) and pepperoncini. We also had manoushe. About the size of a small/med pizza. Perfect amount of za'atar and olive oil. The crust was delectable. I'm usually very critical of Lebanese food not made by my family. Zeta's was so very good! We'll be back. My grandmother (Sitto) would be happy. read more

Who would have thought there would be such a gem in the west valley!!! I'll start with dessert. The cheesecake is out of this world. It had zero chance once I took the first bite. Creamy, not overly sweet, absolutely delicious. I'm a huge fan of middle eastern, Mediterranean and Greek food. This place offers so many choices in that realm. My wife is a bit more conservative. Zetas offers menu items that even the pickiest of eaters will enjoy. She had the fish and chips. I know. Not really what one would consider a Lebanese dish. But it was delicious. Only critique, we did take out. Both the fries and fish were soggy due to the packaging. As an hospitality and restaurant industry lifer, I suggest using paper wrap instead of plastic containers for fried foods. IMO. Nevertheless, she loved it. The appetizer, Sanbousek meat was amazing. I love empanadas/tapas type finger foods. This dish filled the bill. IMO . I would perhaps offer a sauce to enhance it. But, otherwise delicious! Will order again. I had the gyro platter. Fresh, soft, and warm pita bread. Cucumbers. Really fresh, sweet red onions. The meat was amazing. Sliced thin and a nice portion. Served with the jasmine rice. Craving it already. Mediterranean salad is a nice portion. Dressing was great. Both of our entrees came with a side salad. Don't let that stop you from ordering one of their entree salads. Zetas is now a must dine for us. read more

Ambiance: well lit, spacious and clean. Service: Alexa was great! Food was brought out promptly. They checked on us 7 times. Food Ordered: vegetable plate, Kafka plate, and Zetas chicken plate. Food Quality: Yes and Amen! Fresh everything. Food Quantity: lunch portions were reasonable Food Flavor: Best Falafel I have had in AZ. Crispy outer moist tender inner. Kafka was a smidge dry, but the flavor is right on. The Zetas chicken breast was well seasoned fresh and moist. The rice that came with it was fantastic. I scraped the plate clean. Noise Level: soft music in the background. I feel like the fresh ingredients, service, and attention to detail with things like garnish and extremely the neat presentation demonstrated this is more than another Gyro joint. This is a drive for us but this is in the rotation!! read more

Came here with my fiancé wanted to try this Lebanese restaurant, food was okay but need to work on the beef cubes, it was chewy but overall food was good, the server was nice to offer to remake another dish, he's very generous by offering. Service could of been better, the place was very nice atmosphere it has an outside sitting as well. read more

I've been here a couple times and have had a great experience each time. The service is friendly and attentive. The food is delicious. The garlic sauce is the best one I've ever tasted. I have to eat gluten and dairy free and there are many options here for that. The staff is always very knowledgeable with my allergies and always make recommendations to accommodate. read more

Zetas has quickly turned into one our go-to spots. The food is amazing and Service is very good every time we eat there. The staff is always very friendly also. If you're looking for quiet place to eat some good food, this is a great option! read more

Fantastic food. Unbeatable pita bread. Very pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended. We've been several times and always get the hummus, which is the best you'll find. Not grainy and perfectly thick. Tonight we shared the mixed grill with yellow rice - enough food to share! Support local too. read more

Food is delicious, super fresh. We had the veggie combo and a lamb kabab, yum! We never order desert, but we ordered baklava this time, and we're so glad we did, one -if not the- best baklava we've had. The service is outstanding. The server was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We'll definitely come back soon. read more

Zeta's Grill - Zeta's Veggie Combo Platter - Mediterranean Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

From the moment we stepped inside the service was excellent. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Lamb with yellow rice which ended up to be more food than I could handle. From the bread to the salad ( which was a pleasant surprise as most other restaurants would have charged for and it would not have tasted as good) everything was excellent. But you know I had to leave with the baklava... OMG as soon as I got home... still full from dinner I HAD to try it. Hands down the best I have ever had to date. I'm now crying I wish I bought more but I have 5 pieces left I hope it will last the night. read more

Went to Zetas Grill for lunch with a friend. We both had the gyros, and I had garlic fries and we shared some spicy potatoes. Everything was delicious. Service was on point. Our server was attentive and helpful. I took some pita bread and baklava home for later, and I have to declare it the most delicious baklava I ever gad! read more

Made the mistake of sitting outside so flies everywhere and beverages stayed empty, which can be frustrating when you order iced tea. I had the beef kabob, comes with no sauce so our server, Nicholas, brought me a spicy jelly of sorts. Made it good. Daughter had the Greek salad with chicken and loved it. I ordered the spicy hummus, but came with no bread. Unless the bread that had been out and covered with flies from the moment we sat down was supposed to be used. So you might want to ask for something to come with it. read more

To appreciate the cuisine is to be one who grew up in it. I did. I know first hand that when you're in zeta you're in for a treat like no other. No other. Truly authentic takes right to Beirut, Damascus, Cairo, and you know the rest. From falafel to hummus to lamb dishes, Lebanese uniqueness like no other not only in Arizona but in the southwest. I challenge you to find such delicacies as kibbi nayii; a steak Tatar, along with many others. The best of pastries this establishment does not stop. Ask someone who grew up in the culture about the cuisine to get the right answers. I am one. This is why I write this. When I miss home, the culture, and the food, I come here. I'm a food connoisseur, I traveled the world from Middle East to Asian countries throughout as well as Europe. Go. Enjoy. Immerse your self in the experience. Let the food speak to you. انالما بجي للمطعم هيدا بجي اكل الاكل متل ماكنت باكله ببيروت او زحله او القاهره ال الكويت وانا مولود في هالبلاد وباكل هالاكل. اكلات حلوه هون بتجنن. مابتلاقي محلات متل هيك بيكون عنده اكلات متل الكبي النيي. ومش أيا كبي نيي لا هي بيعملوه متل مانك في بيروت. في محلات هون للأسف بيعملوا اكل كانه امريكي شوي. ياجماعه انا لفيت العالم. انا بعرف الاكل في مطاعم كتيري في الشرق الأوسط وأوروبا واكل الماما بالبيت. صدقوني هالحل مابتندموا فيه read more

Food excellent. Service prompt. They handled our large group with ease. That took skill and attention because not all arrived at the same time, and many individual bills requested. read more

I have been meaning to try Zetas grill for a while, and after my workout decided today was the day! We ordered the chicken shawarma pita wrap and the lamb pita wrap with hummus. We also ordered the greek fries and one order of baklava for dessert. Both wraps come with the meat and sauce mentioned, pickles, tomatoes, and fries inside. The wraps were more on the longer side than they were full if that makes sense- but filling enough. My favorite were the fries! They come with feta cheese, olive oil, and garlic..so much garlic goodness! The baklava was delicious! Fresh and made in-house. The price I did find it was on the higher end for the amount of food. The baklava is about 6 dollars for 2 small pieces. It's still really tasty food and a different option for us in the West Valley. read more

Zeta's grill was absolutely one of the best meals we have had in the entire Valley. I feel so lucky to have something of this caliber on the west side. It is worth the trip. The food was perfection. Everything was made with care. Came out hot. Top notch Lebanese dishes. Fresh ingredients. We really enjoyed our meal here. And we can't wait to go back! Also, the service was amazing. Our server was quick, attentive and courteous. We will be visiting often. read more

Being from Detroit, I feel I am a Middle Eastern food critic. This place is awesome and I would highly recommend dining here. Have eaten dinner here twice and will continue to eat. Really want to try lunch as I love the wraps and they are only served at lunch read more

I ordered online from this listing an hour and a half ago. I called Zetas to get a status and they had no idea what I was talking about. My credit card was charged more than $56. They said it's connected to Delivery.com. I'm not happy and will be stopping payment. Not a fan. You should take appropriate action to have them removed from your page. They responded to me in writing that you closed early. Your potential customers are being negatively impacted and you should be doing something about it. read more

We have only been once and Food was delicious. Service was a bit slow and when we asked the server who appeared to be the only one there he said he wasn't short staffed he was just sick. He thought it was food poisoning. Because it was a restaurant it sure made us a little nervous serving food when ill. read more

We come here pretty regularly and always have a good experience. The Zeta Lunch Combo is a favorite--great mix of flavors and always satisfying. We also usually get the kafta, lamb, falafel, dolmas, and Turkish coffee. Everything's fresh, well-seasoned, and comes out quickly. The staff is friendly and the service is consistently good. One of our go-to spots. read more

Decided to have a calm sit down lunch today even though we are always in a hurry while running errands. We have visited this location several times and we have always had great things to say about it. Today we had their lunch special menu items. We love basically everything we have on their menu. But since it was lunch, and their actual lunch specials are out of this world, we decided to both have the Gyros with the French fries and it comes with a fountain drink. Great deal. We also ordered the Hummus with pita bread as an appetizer, definitely worth it. They always start with a fresh focaccia bun with herbs and oils, which is soooo good when it comes out so hot and fluffy, but you can't pass up the fresh hummus either. Aside from everything being fresh, having great friendly service, and delicious food with great prices, the atmosphere is always welcoming. The music is not over powering. I found myself, tapping along, even though I had no idea what they were saying. But I really love foreign music. If you are looking for a good home made meal, with flavor, and not feel rushed by a fast food restaurant, than this is the place for you. read more
