    Second time returning to Zaytinya and the food was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was very busy and a bit chaotic to walk over to restrooms, but the service was great.

    Huge place. Energetic! Fun ! Great good. Attentive service. (One odd thing , but otherwise fun and great: I ordered White Anchovies for an appetizer from the Tin menu. They brought me Sardines in spicy olive oil in a Tin. I explained that I ordered anchovies, but they insisted that the sardines in front of me were actually anchovies. Dudes: I eat white anchovies twice a week, I know the difference. Weird try at Gaslighting me. No apology. No offer to take them back. My dining companion ate them…even though they are allergic to anchovies. Ha!😀)

    My boyfriend and I had dinner here last ight and our meals were great!!! I had a kale salad ( couldn't get enough of it) and a burger which was very very juicy and seasoned well. My boyfriend had the jambalaya over angel hair pasta. He raved about it,,,and he is THE MOST difficult person to please let me tell you. We had patio seating which was enclosed but still cold. It was a bit uncomfortable and they couldn't move us inside even though there were tables available inside. We were told they were reserved ( get that) but no party showed up til we were leaving. All in all we enjoyed the food (little over priced) and the service was good. We would return for sure. However, if people are being seated in the patio area, when it's so cold outside, have a better heating system.
