Another culinary creation from the mind of chef/restaurateur extraordinaire Jos? Andr?s, Zaytinya brings Andr?s? signature tapas-style flair to Mediterranean cuisine. Here, classic Greek, Turkish and Lebanese dishes get the small-plate… Read Full Editorial
My Review by rebeckal226071752 via Citysearch on 8/21/2013
It's a little overpriced for the food in my opinion. I grew up in the middle east and you would assume that a restaurant with these prices would have some comparable food. Not the case in this case. I'd suggest going elsewhere for arabic…
My Review by kaylas106567202 via Citysearch on 7/8/2013
Great combination of Greek, Turkish and Lebanese food. The ambiance is pleasant and the staff friendly. The portions are rather small, but who could complain with such delicious options. It is really like being in a Tapas place but with…
Great lunch spot by EFrost via Citysearch on 5/18/2010
Zaytinya is a great lunch option if you happen to be in Penn Quarter around noon. It is also good for dinner, but the restaurant can get loud and the bill can add up pretty quickly. My favorite lunch option is the cerkez on toasted olive…
Great Tastes of the Mediterranean by Lisa Mathias via Citysearch on 5/17/2010
If you've been to any of Jose Andres' restaurants in DC, then you know he'll deliver, even though Zaytinya breaks away from his usual Spanish flair. I've been here for brunch and for happy hour and loved both experiences. Their brunch…
Fantastic tapas by Adam Renz via Citysearch on 4/25/2010
Seriously??? The delectable incredibleness that is Zaytinya is almost beyond words. YES! YES! YES!
From the housemade phyllo, pitas, ice cream & sorbet (cherry & hazlenut were out favs) to the decor... the service... everything.
An…

My favorite restuarant in D.C. The food is always so good and flavorful. The spanikopita is outstanding.

Beautiful atmosphere by Grace J. via Judy's Book on 3/25/2006
Zaytinya is one of Jose Andres's restaurants which serves mezze, small plates of Greek/Middle Eastern food. The restaurant itself is stunning, with high ceilings, lots of glass, and white walls accented with candles. The bar is…
Zaytinya is great by indiarules26 via Citysearch on 3/22/2006
This is the greatest restraunt I have ever eaten in, very good food, exellent service. However, the food does cost a lot, so be sure to bring lots of money. Also, dress nicely, it is very fancy and upper-class.
Looks wonderful, food could be better by Basant E. via Judy's Book on 12/12/2005
The middle eastern restaurant itself looks gorgeous, and everything they serve looks gorgeous, but even I am middle eastern, and some of their cuisine is just not understandable. It's to wierd, they need to make it simpler and they need…
Great Greek Food, Eclectic atmosphere by miriam w. via Judy's Book on 9/10/2005
If you want to hang out with the "sheeshee-poopoo" of DC, this is the spot for you. The food is great, the drinks are fabulous, and the staff are pretty cool too. They have a great menu and the food is prepared very well. It is a…
