Ordered a takeaway. Food arrived very late and cold. We called several times to find out where it was and apparently it was waiting in the kitchen for a driver. We paid over £60 for 2 people and unfortunately the starters were cold and so hard we couldn't eat them. We called again to complain and ask for money off but were told to call just eat.

We left our review against The Olive Grove because it seems to be in the process of taking over and merging with Zaytoona. That said, we had a really good meal...

We had lunch at Zaytoona just by chance and really enjoyed it. The food was, on the whole, very tasty and filling and the service good.

Despite some negative experiences with service and delivery, The Olive Grove/Zaytoona offers a friendly atmosphere, delicious Middle Eastern cuisine, and generous portion sizes. The restaurant is highly recommended for fans of this type of food, with attentive service and various seating options available. Meals are flavorful and filling, with mixed platters being a popular choice. While some customers have had issues with order accuracy and communication, the overall dining experience seems to be positive, making it a great spot for a casual meal with family or friends. It seems that despite some bumps in the road, the restaurant is generally well-loved by patrons.
