Perfect blend of service and quality food. Two thumbs up. If you havent already been there you are missing out big time. The Kunafa is Authentic and just of the right taste. Fatoush Salad was as good as youd find anywhere in the Middle East. Super fresh food with sufficient portion sizes had a great time eating delicious food at this joint. The staff is committed to great service and were very friendly. The atmosphere was awesome and outdoor seating modern style was very nice. We started with the Hot and Sour Soup which was piping hot and fresh. Sizzling Mutton Kebabs were just the right taste and melting in the mouth simply fantastic dish. Would love to visit again.

One of best addition to K-town eatery scene. Top notch Mediterranean food filled menu with extra ordinary tastebuds satisfying flavors. Staff is very customer friendly and keen to serve you a better experience. Awesome authentic arabic cuisine, was filled to the brim but still craving for more. Serene ambience and best interior design. Loved it!

Very comfortable and cozy atmosphere. Family friendly. Staff is well mannered. Clean and tidy place. Food quality is amazing, though pricing is a bit much. Recommended for occasional outing with family.

The cuisine is Turkish. The small platter is sufficient for three people given they are not meat freaks lol. The chicken Kabsa is quite good and unique in taste. The only problem was that the dining was indoor which is a threat to our health during covid times.The humus platter is also amazing with lots of salad. And there were a lot of sauces

Suddenly ended up here after wifes advice.....It was something special!.... Never had Turkish food but this place is amazing .I went here on Sunday it was very crowded waiting for around 1 hour but as we were 2 so got seating immediately.If we talk about Ambience it was good seating area is large both on ground floor and basement.Staff is cooperative and helpful.If we talk about food it was simply mouthwatering, I ordered 2 dishes:-Sizzling Mutton Kebab-Shish ToukSizzling Kebab was super yummy it was my first experience of this type of dish served with fried onions and chillies and also served with Turkish breadShish Touk was also tasty, it was dry and spicyBoth the dish was very well served and one amazing thing is service was super fastMy final word is highly recommended!

We went there for our wedding anniversary dinner after wifes advice and found amazing food with good ambience and seating area. All the dishes we ordered were very well served and kids loved pepperoni pizza. Would really suggest everyone to give it a try.

Exclusive dine out place, very much recommended. Turkish cousin. Go for their platter offer, very filling. Maybe a bit pricey but worth visitng.

Review №8

The place was crowded with rarely any SOP being followed. Food quantity/serving is too less for what they charge. Nothing was extraordinary. There are better options out there when it comes to labenese, arabian cuisines

The service was fast and food was good. The chicken shawarma with rice had a generous portion. Outside seating, introduced recently due to prevailing conditions, has added charm to this place! The sizzling kabab was good but not very good. Kunefe looked good but did not taste as good as it was not served hot.

Today I visited this restaurant and I found the food quite reasonable. The Turkish bread quality is awesome, apart from hummus the food quality is amazing. We tried mutton adana kebab and chicken sizzling kebab both dishes were juicy and perfect to taste. Ayran was good but need to be more authentic.

Review №13

Ordered the pepperoni pide, which tasted almost as good as an original Turkish pide, though the base has a little room for improvement.The kunafeh couldnt compare to a Hafiz Mustafa, but was pretty good in taste, not extensively filled with cheese as it should be, but had sufficient amount to be tasted. The sweetness was almost appropriate.The staff was attentive and courteous. The only downside was they dont accept cards - so cash only kind of place.

Review №15

I usually don’t leave reviews but this time I had to because this was the worst delivery I ever received. When I opened the boxes, it was like the food was put in a blender. I called them several times afterwards with no response. This is VERY unprofessional and I am SO disappointed. I will NEVER order from this place again. I suggest that you do not either, unless you want to eat food similar to what I received.

Yar amazing food with reasonable prices.We had to dine out due to covid SOPs.But this experience was amazing, though there is not much space available for zeytin so they had to manage with whatever they had.We had soup for starters, zeytin special pide (3 in 1) and their forever famous kabsa rice.Kabsa was the winner for us.The staff however is a bit weird or untrained but this could be due to this dine out thing so i shouldnt comment on it.

Zeytin is opened for dine-in too. However they had a long waiting line so we choose to sit outside. It was a good experience with good taste. Recommended ♡

Review №26

Lovely experience! Will go again for sure the food taste is on point! The original Turkish preps and the taste was outstanding chef have curated the recipes in a way you will love everything! The ambiance was classy dim lights and traditional turkish music playing will make you feel like youre in anatolian eatery. I ordered family platter and it had all their bbq items on a single wooden board! From kebabs to wings to meat pieces everything was made in butter and the meat was tasty and juicy! Unlike our traditional bbq which is dry and too much spicy. The restaurant have justified its theme taste and quality highly highly recommended 10/10 ratings. I will go again for sure to try more items on their menu!

Review №27

I visited them for lunch during smart lockdown due to which theyre offering outdoor dining. I tried their family platter consisting of almost all the BBQ items present in their menu which was enough for 5 people. The food was good and the staff was quite friendly. They took good care of the SOPs as well. Due to outdoor dining they have a very limited space so its better for people looking to dine with their families must book their tables before. I will visit this place again.

Review №30

The ambiance is just okay. The dining area is limited so it was a little crowdy. The food was good but it definitely misses the Turkish touch. The ambiance is also not Turkish.All the items on the menu are expensive.Overall the experience was good but it was not worth the high cost.Value for money is low.Not the right place for the Turkish experience or food.

An absolute quality and taste rich food.Ecery dish has its own special features and flavor.Tried a number of dishes like, Kabsa, Tapsi Kebab, Sizzling Kebab and Istanbul Tikka.Also ordered Mint margarita that was too yum and so according to my taste.I think they can improve their washroom area as it was a little untidy and they dont have men and women separate washrooms.

Today I went to zeytin for the first time...and the experience was much greater from my expectations. The food was so delicious especially the sizzling kabab... ambiance was excellent...and the service was outstanding..Mr Ahtesham served us he was quick responsive and great attitude. The only disadvantage or negative point is that they dont accept debit or credit card for this Im deducting their 1 star...but overall a great and lovely experience..

Well, here is my experience Id like to share. I planned an evening for my husband on his bday. I wanted to pre plan everything so I called zeytin, and the person who dealth with me till the end Im sorry I couldnt understand your name properly but may be it was Jazvi, a gentleman who gave me good suggestions, helped me execute my plan perfectly as I wished. And when my husband reached there they served him so nicely, wished him made him feel special. Food was just outstanding. So unique such a flavourful balanced taste of lebanese cuisine.Ordered chilli bites in starters, kunaafa as in bday cake, chk shawarma pide, tepsi kabab, istanbul tikka and everything was upto a class!! Served hot wirh perfect timings as requested.I highly recommend lebanese food lovers, and also ppl to try it once its worth it. Youd love the taste bcz it has that Pakistani touch and it makes it just right!

Awesome, great food, amazing ambience, out of the world service. Yummy taste. Ask for Turkish chef Ali, he will make your money worth dishes. Chicken Adana Kebab & Mutton sizzling kebabs are two must have dishes & in the end Khunafa will make lick your fingers.Negatives:Still no Credit Cards (for God sake start paying taxes)Still no Turkish Tea

Review №46

As long as you dont compare this place to tried and tested cusine that you have experienced abroad, I would easily rate #Zeytin to be one of the best places to have Mediterranean grill. Kunafa was pretty good as well except for the bed of watery cream (Balai) that they serve along with it. Please change that with Khoya if you want to add a bit of localization.

Amazing range of menu, great taste, as close as it could get to the mediterranean and arabic food. Ambiance is awesome, minus the children hopping around and the noise. Suggestion to have a separate space for families, or visit in non peak hours, a great addition to the diverse cuisine of Karachi.

Food is great, service is pathetic. I would never recommend you to plan your visit on weekends as it gets extremely crowded and the staff forgets the concept of service. You must reserve your seat in advance and still wait to be seated in 15-20 minutes post arrival. Based on the overall experience I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Review №82

Been a huge fan of their shawarma wraps. In fact I used to recommend everyone I know to prefer it over any other shawarma in the vicinity.Unfortunately they have downgraded it and reduced its size to a quarter shorter and also compromised the quantity of stuffing in it too.Its not that their business is running low. Masha Allah they are doing great its almost an hour long waiting house full affair most of the time. Weekends traffic and parking outside show they are doing well but saddened to see how in such good times they are compromising on their quality of service.Alas! I guess, this is typically the same mundane cycle by which any business goes downwards.

Food was really good. Kabsa chicken which is like Mandi and spicy kebabs were fantastic as was the fatoush.However ambiance wasnt at par of a Rs. 1750 per head food (plus very noisy kids) and the fact they didnt accept credit cards is a big turn off.

The dinner was served outside the restaurant following the SOPs for the precaution of Corona. Sitting outdoors was also a cosy place. We had ordered a Fire Platter, a combination of Kababs & Barbecue items, the mutton chops were very soft & juicyThe taste was authentic of Turkish Cuisine with soft Turkish music playing in the background. The service was also very good. I will go again & recommend to everyone for Turkish Cuisine.

Food variety is amazing with Dishes from the Turkish Cuisines. The Waiters are friendly with helping hand in ordering. The owner was taking interest him self in everything and taking suggestions from the guests. The decor and theme of the restaurant was brilliant and different from the rest. This place is good for casual hangouts and Groups and family gatherings as well.
