Zaytinya never disappoints! I went there last night, on a Tuesday, and it could not have been more lively. From the unlimited pita, shareable hommus, creamy shrimp, to the mocktails, it was a perfect dinner. 10/10.

It's not quite the shining star it once was bit it's still pretty great. It's INCREDIBLY loud -- even our waiter, poor guy was having problems just hearing our order. But good food, solid location, a nice night

Food tastes great. Service was exceptional. Outside seating was a great option , especially with patio heaters during the cold season. Special thanks to the pastry chef for the
Galatopita with Apple sorbet. The sourness of the sorbet brings out the sweetness of the dessert and maintains a good balance.

Vegetarian options: Chicken Soup Avgolemono is one of a kind.
