Zaytoon in the Durango Drive shopping area is a modest, family-run Persian and Middle Eastern restaurant that brings a distinctly homey vibe to this part of Las Vegas. It’s the kind of spot where the warmth of hospitality is as memorable as the food itself. Visitors often comment on how the service feels genuinely personal—friendly hosts who seem to treat guests like old friends, making the place comfortable for both longtime locals and first-timers.

Eating at Zaytoon is a straightforward, satisfying experience that centers on traditional flavors from the Persian and Mediterranean kitchens. The restaurant keeps its menu focused and approachable, featuring classics like koobideh kabob, ghormeh sabzi, and saffron rice alongside fresh, house-baked pita bread that arrives warm and is perfect for scooping up dips such as hummus, baba ghanoush, or yogurt with cucumber.

The atmosphere is unpretentious, with a relaxed pace that suits a casual lunch or dinner. It’s not a flashy spot but instead feels like a small community hub where food quality and authenticity take center stage. Many guests appreciate Zaytoon’s commitment to preserving traditional recipes, with some mentioning that the koobideh kabob tastes remarkably close to the versions found in Tehran.

For those who enjoy a leisurely meal, late afternoons and early evenings are great times to visit, when the kitchen is in full swing and the restaurant hums quietly with locals who appreciate hearty, well-seasoned dishes. Additionally, Zaytoon includes a connected Persian/Mediterranean market space, which adds to the overall experience by allowing visitors to browse authentic grocery items after their meal.

Beyond dining, the combination of warm service, authentic tastes, and a modest setting makes Zaytoon a spot that particularly appeals to people seeking genuine Middle Eastern home cooking in a setting that feels far from touristy or rushed. If you find yourself craving kabobs, classic dips, or saffron-infused rice handled with care, this is a place where those cravings are met without fuss but with clear respect for tradition.

I had a wonderful experience at Zeytoon Restaurant and highly recommend it. The service and hospitality truly stood out, everyone was warm, friendly, and welcoming, and it honestly feels like home. The food was excellent: the kebabs were absolutely delicious, and the baghlava was amazing, and they even bake their bread in-house and serve it warm.They also have a Persian/Mediterranean supermarket attached, which is very convenient and well stocked with everything you might need.

A small family-run restaurant passed down through generations, keeping the same high standards over the years. I had the chance to be invited there by a friend, and we received VIP service from start to finish. The quality of their kebabs, chicken, and everything else was simply outstanding — honestly, some of the best skewers I’ve ever had in my life. Everything was perfect from A to Z. They even have a small shop inside where you can buy a variety of local products. Thank you again — what an amazing experience!

First of all the appetizers were so good it didn’t make my photo roll. The fresh hot pita bread was delicious with the eggplant spread. And the food just tasted so homey.

10/10 the koobidehs taste like they do in Tehran, can’t get much closer than this. Beats every kabob shop in LA, phenomenal food and service. Nice stuff Zaytoon!

Been meaning to try this restaurant and finally did! Saam was our server, he was very friendly, quick and attentive, we never had to ask for a refill he was on it! What we ordered: 1.) Baba Ghanoush $6.99 my friend said was not bad. 2.) Hummus $6.99 had a nice garlic flavor. 3.) Falafel appetizer $6.99 my friend size was small but they were tasty. 4.) Beef Shish Kebab $20.99 my friend said his dish was good. 5.) Lamb Shish Kebab $20.99 my lamb was a bit overcooked and lamb was a bit tough in texture, just ok. 6.) Lentil soup $7.99 my friend said that the soup was well seasoned and tasty. We also went to the grocery section on the other side. The Cashier was friendly and helpful.

WOW. This rivals the Persian food and kosher markets in LA. What a great family-owned, local business. I got the koobideh one day and the chicken kabob the other day. Each are around $18. You get great rice, and roasted vegetables. Sumac is on the tables. I also had tea and their baklava, which was made just perfectly. AMAZING service, very kind servers and great vibe inside. Lots of seating too.

How have I lived in Vegas all these years and never been here. The food is amazing. The service was friendly and fantastic. I loved the grocery store attachment. I was able to find all the spices and seasonings I use to cook in larger quantities with more affordable prices than Amazon or Walmart. Absolute hidden gem!
