“Zaytoon Lebanese Restaurant in West Hartford with Ty. My first experience with Turkish coffee and it was superb. It's strong just like New Orleans coffee and Right up my alley. Our server was attentive, courteous, and efficient. He had a smile and a pleasant personality and was very helpful with the ordering. The food was hot and delicious. The lamb was a gift from the Greek gods. It was tender and seasoned and most flavorful with no gamey aftertaste. Everything you would want from a Mediterranean/Lebanese restaurant.“

“I fly to West Hartford every weekend just to eat at Kitchen Plate. I live in North Carolina, and yet somehow this has become the most logical decision of my life—because once you’ve eaten here, nothing else compares.

Kitchen Plate isn’t just a restaurant; it’s an experience. From the moment the food hits the table, you can tell everything is made with care, intention, and an unreal level of skill. The flavors are bold but balanced, comforting but exciting, and consistently unforgettable. No matter what I order, it somehow ends up being the best thing I’ve eaten all week—every week.

What truly sets this place apart, though, is the chef. He is, without exaggeration, my favorite chef ever. Watching someone put this much passion and pride into their craft is rare, and you can taste it in every single bite. The food feels personal, like it was made specifically for you. There’s creativity, heart, and serious talent behind every dish, and it shows.

I’ve eaten at plenty of great spots, but Kitchen Plate is the only place that has made me plan flights around a meal. That’s not a joke or an exaggeration—it’s just that good. If you live nearby, don’t take it for granted. And if you don’t? Trust me, it’s worth the trip.“

“Edit November 2024: So after I visited them again, I am now determined, they are so good, I will make it a traditional stop every time traveling to Hartford....
Earlier October 2024: Visiting the area, Googled for a restaurant and found this one, well done, good food, delicious and a lot of choices.“

“I’ve come to location 10+ times and I’ve always had a great experience. Food is fresh, employees have a great attitude, dining hall is clean. I want to give a special shout-out to Elly and Toya, they are so kind and their customer service skills really go a long way.“

“Take the chain Cava and fine tune it for a single store that really cares about the food it makes. Add cooler staff and more options. That’s this place.

Mostly Mediterranean ish fast casual with tons of options for proteins and toppings, and anything can be made into a gyro on a pita. The possibilities with that seem cool, they seriously had 30+ different toppings, pasta salads, veggies, that could all go on the items. Would dig seeing them hash out a list of preset bowls and gyros with different flavors too.

They seem to make a few fresh specialties that change each day too, will have to go back for it. Today was white wine garlic chicken with carrots and scallions, looked good.

Genuinely highly recommend this spot, a place with this level of quality deserves to thrive here as long as they maintain that standard or elevate ir. Such a gem and the food was pretty well priced for the quality. Will be back many many times.“

“The food is delicious. The restaurant is clean and the staff are very nice. The seating feels like being in a living room of a home in Middle East, cozy and welcoming. I just think that it would be best if the tables were a little higher and if they turn the TV on or play some music to break the silence because it doesn't feel like you can have private talk when it's dead silence. I suggest something like a soft music may be with a show of Middle East paysage.“

“Hey Mike! The Branzino was amazing. Loved the sampler appetizer too. See yah soon!“

“Came here for the first time last night. The man behind the counter was so kind and friendly! We spoke about the shop and after hearing it was my first time he gave me a free hummus to try. THE FOOD WAS AMAZING!!!!!!! Hands down best Mediterranean in the area. I will be back!“

“The food is soooo good, like everything the rice, cucumber, the meat, it’s all so good fr“
