Zaytinya

I really wanted to love this place, especially given the reputation and the expectations that come with the José Andrés name. Unfortunately, the overall experience fell short—mainly due to the service. We dined on a very busy Friday night and ordered the Chef’s Experience at $85 per person. At that price point, you expect elevated hospitality: attentiveness, explanations of the dishes, some insight into the concept, and at least a quick check-in to see how the meal is going. None of that happened. Our server, Antonio, was not very attentive—we had to ask for drink refills, there were no check-ins during the meal, and no follow-up at the end to see how everything was. When spending over $200 on dinner, small details matter. Even something as simple as to-go containers felt overlooked—we h

We had the pleasure of dining at Zaytinya to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and the experience was wonderful from start to finish. Jason, our server, was outstanding—attentive, thoughtful, and truly went above and beyond. He noticed the birthday noted on our reservation and surprised my husband with a candle-lit dessert at the end, which was such a lovely touch. We tried the Restaurant Week menu, and every dish exceeded our expectations. The flavors were vibrant and unique, and it was impressive how the food managed to feel both healthy and incredibly delicious. This restaurant delighted all of our taste buds, and we will absolutely be returning.

A fantastic experience. The space was wonderfully bright and open. A lot of blues and whites with a good eye for art and accents. We went for a special occasion and it delivered. The food was spectacular and very well balanced. We had the set brunch for menu for 2 and found it to be a good value(70 for the both of us). We were absolutely stuffed and had to take some home. Service made a couple of mistakes but all of them were addressed quickly and respectful (I think this was due to having a server who was training, so we completely understood). The drinks were also very well done. Over all a fantastic lunch.

Really enjoyed our lunch at Zaytinya. We only had to wait for 15 minutes for a table with no reservation and the staff were very welcoming and attentive. Food was really good. The fresh bread and Brussels sprouts were my favourite. Haloumi was delicious - though it did make me laugh it was just two small slices for $14 ahah - but tasted great!

Huge shout-out to 2 awesome bartenders! Anwar and Comelita (not sure on the spelling of either) are the best. They knew the menu and made great recommendations. Best options are Kofti kebab, seared Halloumi cheese, Brussels sprouts, and especially the crispy eggplant!
