As a surprise and a change from our usual ( pretty nice) home cooked Christmas Eve meal for 14 friends and family we found Zanjabiel Middle Eastern Catering. We are so glad we did. Reem kindly met with us to select a completely fantastic meal. We salivated even as we went through her lovely website. She was easy to work with. We chose a selection of both familiar and more Syrian/Libyan style foods and flavors. They brought the food and decor which was set up in my kitchen beautifully. Reem and Naheem ( sisters-in-law) did all the work. We had a fabulous selection of dips, appetizers and bread. We offered a creative tabbouleh and a favorite fatoush salad. We had entrees of eggplant ( off the charts good), chicken, lamb- perfect with its topping of rice, fruit and nuts- and beef kofta meatballs in sauce. We have not even mentioned the stuffed dessert dates, the pecan tart or chocolate petit fours! All our guests were given take away cartons and we had leftovers to dream over. Reem returned to collect their items we had used. Zanjabiel can do large or small, simple or elaborate, but always interesting, flavorful and classy. We have eaten all over the world in the last 40 years and this meal ranks up there with the very best. One hundred percent recommendation! Thank you.

I would highly recommend and plan to use Zanjabiel again for catering events! She catered a 165+ event and did an excellent job. Rim helped craft the menu and made multiple dishes not even offered on her website. Food was well priced and portion sizes were huge. Food was fresh and carefully crafted to perfection. She was thoughtful about allergies of any guests. Display was professional, beautifully decorated and with clear signs. She allowed me to include some home made items which she happily helped served as well. I was so impressed, I plan to use them for meal prepping in the future as well. You can't go wrong with choosing Zanjabiel!

I ordered date maamoul dessert for my party, and my friends and I loved it! It was the best date dessert we have ever had! Communication with Rim was very smooth and pleasant. I am also eager to try their other dishes and very much look forward to it!

Zanjabiel catered a celebration with 100+ guests at an outdoor venue. Believe when I say the food is AMAZING! Working with Rim was a pleasure from start to finish. She helped us build a menu and guided us gracefully through the process. The tables were presented beautifully, with ample signage to help people understand ingredients, and the food was refreshed regularly. Every aspect of the meal was delicious, and Rim is a delight. Our guests raved about the food and left with full stomachs and big smiles. We give our highest recommendation to Zanjabiel Catering, and encourage you to consider working with them for your event- large or small!

Zanjabiel has amazing food, and amazing service! We hired them to cater the State of the City event and they were friendly, responsive, and had great service. The cheese pastries are life changing - SO good!

We were hosting a few familymembers and ordered food from Zanjabiel. The food and service was amazing. Everyone absolutely loved all the dishes. We are looking forward to ordering again and would highly, highly recommend catering from Zanjabiel-you won’t be disappointed. The food, service and communication was on point!

Zanjabiel Catering did a fantastic job with our Staff Christmas Party. The food arrived precisely when we asked for it, it was hot and delicious! Rim walked patiently with me as I decided what to order and what quantities. We could not have been more pleased. Our guests were delighted!

Our experience with Zanjabiel Catering was outstanding. All of our guests absolutely loved the food! It was delicious and beautifully presented. Really appreciated the extras, especially the date dessert… some guests who are a pastry chefs said it was exceptional! Zanjabiel provides top notch service, generous portions, and authentic cuisine.
Absolutely amazing catering company. The food and service was exceptional. They set up an amazing spread of food that all of my guests loved. Their attention to detail and all the help they provided to make my engagement party buffet was done perfectly. Hadeel and Reem really went above and beyond. 5/5 would recommend if you are looking for traditional homestyle Mediterranean food!

Great experience on a quick timeline. We paid for our catering on Sunday for a Tuesday party - so really appreciated them taking the last minute order. Guests enjoyed the food. We focused on finger foods and dips. Chicken rolls were the most popular, not as many fans of the baba ganoush as it was different than the Lebanese version many people have add. (The muttabal on their menu is what they recommended to me after giving this feedback.) All food was very fresh and flavorful. Hummus and cheese pies also super popular with our guests.
Barbara Paanakker
The food was delicious and there was something for everyone. We had a challenging crowd with vegan and gluten free people. Rim and I exchanged many emails and figured it all out. She made sure we had name tags with every dish and everything was above expectations! I highly recommend Zanjabiel.

Zanjabiel Catering is an amazing caterer. The owner is very kind and provides wonderful service. Her food is excellent - delicious and beautifully prepared. I highly recommend!

Had a great experience catering from Zanjabiel for a small party. They were very prompt to respond and accommodate dietary preferences. We ended up creating a mostly vegan menu of Mujadarra, Pumpkin stew, and Fateh al betanjan, plus a roasted leg of lamb.Everything was delicious and all the guests were impressed. Would definitely recommend.
