Zaitoon Restaurant, Anna Nagar

Good food and ambiance. Service bit delayed. Kunafa is worth trying. Pepper barbecue chicken. Lolypop.sea food platter.

One of the worst service experience we ever faced. All confused biased and nasty.zaitoon lovers would recommend to not visit this franchise what so ever as not all zaitoon branches are like this

We went on a Sunday, was very crowded. We have to wait for 5mins to get water. Service could be improved. Don’t try Jughead special shake. Taste was very bad more jaggery and dates.

The service was excellent but the food was just below average. Baby corn gravy was very bad, mutton biryani was just ok. For the price you you pay not a penny is worth.

My family loves this restaurant. I have no idea what is so special about this Zaitoon and all other branches.
One thing caught my eyes is, if you know Hindi, you will get special treatment. Only negative point I could make here.

Good restaurant but most of the food items in menu card is not available. I tried 3 times but same issue arise often.

Very werst taste fish finger only 6 pieces, @₹320 + 18%gst + ₹10 packing

My daughter got வாந்தி after eating.

Ambience -average
Cost-High
Service-Good
Delivery-min 20 after order -dine in
Quality of food-Good

I felt the seating and arrangements are little congested.
Never try "Kunafa" here not worth for money.

Zaitoon - one of the famous restaurants for Arabic cuisine in Chennai. They provide good quality and quantity of dishes. The taste is good matching to the restaurants in gulf countries to an extent. Please try dishes like Alfaham, kozhi sehaj, effa dezaj, clope meshwi and other Arabic starters.

Been going there regularly since 2013. Surprising consistent with good taste, quality. A re do of the interior, especially after the lockdown would be a serious suggestion.

Food is good. Tasted well.
The waiters were often walking up and down. Looked suspicious all the time.

Although food was great, we went as a party of four and two of us had the Sizzling brownie, rest didn’t but has the same dishes as us otherwise… and just so happens that both of us who had the brownie have been sick, vomiting and I think it’s food poisoning… not had anything else since we ate here… so something we’d had here had caused this… still not recovered but wanted to save someone else from experiencing this!

Their bbq and tandoori varieties are amazing. The Chinese dishes are not that great. Skip their biriyani. Do try their tawa fish fry, mixed fried rice, special bbq chicken, prawn 65 and Afghan starters.

I have dine in on 2nd Jan went along with family, ordered foods especially ordered reshmi kebab I found a hair on served plate and server informed manager, and the manager was very quite reconfirmed me twice and trice he confirmed than the bill was collected for the same dish. I was unhappy with the service. Either they would have cut the particular dish from bill or else they would have ordered a new plate.i was very regular to zaitoon, the service was really disappointed ️

Good and crowded always, going to this restaurant for past 5yrs.

Ordered: 1. Chicken hot and sour soup, 2. Alfaham dejaj, 3. Chicken noodles

All good in taste and best service. Special mention for alfaham

Not good as other outlets at chennai. No ice for juices machine broken. No spices available for chicken lollipop and it have been told after 20 min from order time.

I gone there for dinner. I tired prawn biriyani, bbq and grill chicken.bbq dish was must try dish.taste was so yummy

Good quality food, I liked barbeque fish & mutton briyani, but kizhi parotta is not up to mark, but dessert cheesy kunafa is my favourite at the ending must try one. Overall staff are polite and will take care everything before you call them

Had chicken biryani and zaitoon spl dry chicken. Really delicious. Chicken cooked very well and juicy. And their service is way too polite. Must try

A very decent and nice restaurant, for family / friends.
One of the very few restaurants in AnnaNagar which serves equally good quality (and tasty) vegetarian dishes.

I personally loved the Mutton Raan (Rs. 1000) which is very much worth it.

Also has a party hall in 2nd floor. You you are late on a bustly day, you will get table at 2nd floor only.

Really good place to enjoy with friends and family. Food is really good. Customers are treated really well.if you want eat in a star hotel with budget friendly then this restaurant is one for you:)

Had ordered two kinds of platter and biryani/fried rice to go with. The platter, some of the dishes were extremely tasty while some of the seafoods were raw. Was a mixed overall taste wise experience. The service is really poor, the order took more than the expected time. The ambience fits right for family dining.

Wide range of varieties to choose. Ordered half tandoori platter, kozi rubian, prawn biryani. Tandoori platter consists of all tandoori items like, chicken, mutton, fish and prawn for 750rs which is worth for every penny. Kozi rubian is literally a mandi rice with prawn and the prawn taste is different.

The food was amazing, the ambience was good, service was amazing but a bit overpriced.
Note: Must try fish boneless barbecue.

I never visited zaitoon as of own but I some chance to order through swiggy, over priced but quantity and quality is manageable

Nice place to have non veg food, especially Arabian, shawarma, grill and a lot more.
Pricing a little on higher side, but worth it.

Nice place for meat lovers, both veg and non-veg fine dining. Has a party hall for celebrations for rent. Prices are reasonable. Wide variety from Kebabs, Tandoori, Biryani and Noodles and much more.

Absolutely loved the flavourful middle eastern cuisine. The mutton Raan @ 1,400/- and cheese kunafa @ 340/- are worth the cost and a definite treat to the mouth! ️

I am relished with their food items especially Fish fry and chicken bbq. Must visit place to satisfy your taste buds

Food here was so good and yumbut the Cheese kunafa was so less in quantity for the cost I couldn't find the cheese inside the kunafa?

Advantages
Clean and hygienic kitchen
Valet Parking
Have their own valet and delivery person
Arabian Taste and quality
Sealed and airtight packaging
Have a lot of variety in menu

Disadvantages
Limited Accompaniments - Mayonnaise
Made it from small to extra small
Sometimes ordering directly can cause disappointments such valet won’t bring online payment method and would ask cash
Portion quantity when compared to price is very less in certain dishes
Juices are better to have in restaurant rather ordering for takeaway

Used to be a really good restaurant but the taste of the food in recent times are really bad and to mention the service was really good and the staffs were friendly.

I bought 2 iftar box on 12/05/2021, which delivered by ZAITOON ANNANAGAR. We 4members enjoyed it all by sharing it. It's very worthy items & reasonable price. Twice we visited the place in the RAMADAN month before 2years. It's was remembering days, now after a long time we had a nice iftar. We like to visit the restaurant, when the pandemic once finished. Subhan-Allah.

Very worst service that I ever had in a multi-cuisine restaurant.
Called the official website phone number to enquire about the availability of two ifthar box.
The person in the reception said the box is available and adviced me to come. I said I'm coming there right now and started from my home. It will take 25 mins to reach the restaurant.
When I reached, the person said the boxes are not available. It will be very fine if I didn't enquire and went to restaurant. But I told him clearly, I'm coming to the restaurant. In that case also they failed to get a box for me.
I think they might have concentrated more if I order more than 10 box.
People who wants to visit here, don't expect anything from them. Even the way of answering to us is bittering.

Parcel comes very late.not at all responding very much. Staff not at all responding when asked a question.

All the dishes are great here, you can experiment and also try the regulars but the only bad thing is the service isn't good, lots of delays if you aren't delayed, you are fortunate enough

Good place to eat out but my fav, the zaitoon special barbecue was dry and didnt live upto its name.

Best restaurant in town. Very tasty Arabian dishes. Tried most of dishes in menu. Must try restaurant.

Worst behaviour from waiter's. Improper food delivering to table. Have to wait for long time to have food. Quantity of food very less. Waste of money better try some other restaurant. I never visit here anymore (Anna nagar- chinnathamani)

Fish BBQ is extraordinary otherwise all the foods are very normal taste.service good, not impressive
