My husband and I dine here often. The food is the best and the staff is friendly and personable. This place serves the type of food you'll crave after you have it.

The food is very good. Atmosphere is really cozy and inviting on the patio but felt a bit absent inside. Staff was pleasant.

A fantastic place to have Lunch or Dinner. Located on the US 224 and OH St Rt 11 interchange in Canfield, Ohio. Zenobia's serves up flavorful and well done Middle Eastern Cuisine. Their Food is very tasty and the waitress staff is always very nice and professional. I highly recommend their Grape Leaves.( Tasty Grape Leaves stuffed with Lamb, Beef and Rice) Appetizer, their Lentil Soup, Hummus and their Norweigen Salmon (cooked in Garlic and lemon) with rice and Tahini sauce. The service was wonderful with a great atmosphere.

If you like Middle Eastern food, you will love zenobia. Hands down one of the best Middle Eastern that I have ever had. Excellent food, huge portions, reasonable pricing. If you get a chance to eat outside, the atmosphere is amazing. Definitely recommend this for anybody looking for authentic Middle Eastern food. We will definitely be coming back here again

This was our first visit here and won't be our last!! For an appetizer we had the Health Food plate (hummus & Tabouli). The hummus was really good and the Tabouli was very fresh. For dinner my wife had the Norwegian Grilled Salmon over rice. It was cooked perfect! I had the Lamb over Rice. It was delicious and the lamb was probably the most tender lamb I've ever had! Overall it was a great experience. The service was great, the patio was nice, and the food was excellent! We will definitely return!

A Cozy Atmosphere with Great Service, But the Food Fell Short
Zenobia has a lot going for it—starting with the friendly and attentive waitstaff who made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere is beautiful, upscale, and cozy, especially if you’re able to grab a seat outside on a nice day. It’s the kind of spot that feels both relaxed and refined.
I also really appreciate that Zenobia caters to a diverse crowd by offering both halal options and a full-service bar—something you don’t often see at Mediterranean restaurants in the area. That flexibility is a big plus depending on who you’re dining with.
That said, the food was underwhelming overall. We ordered a variety of dishes—chicken over rice, grape leaves, hummus, hot tea, kuffta, and more—and while nothing was bad, nothing really stood out either. For the price, we were hoping for more generous portions or more memorable flavors. The presentation and seasoning just didn’t quite hit the mark, especially when compared to other Turkish and Mediterranean spots just a short drive away on the Canfield strip that offer a more authentic and flavorful experience at similar or better value.
To be clear, the 3-star rating isn’t a reflection of the service, which was excellent—it’s more about the food not living up to expectations for the price point. I really want to see Zenobia succeed, and I hope they continue refining the menu because the setting and staff truly deserve it.

Very good food and superb service. They have a beautiful outdoor patio to sit on with flowers and plants and a little waterfall. Great place to have lunch or dinner.

The food we ordered for delivery was good a few days ago, but today they got everything wrong and even though we had a receipt with all the details of the order, the manager argued that we didn't order what we did and refused to look at our receipt. She just blamed DoorDash for everything.
I'll never order anything from this place again. Very angry. She didn't have a clue about what customer service is. God help her employees because she'd be horrible to work for.

I love their cinnamon tea, lamb on the rod, chicken dinner, grape leaves & rice pudding. Everything I've ever tried was delicious. I will say it's not always consistent but still worth it
