Customer service and the ambience here was excellent! If you’re looking for a relaxing meal, this is the place! I especially enjoyed the aubergine starter dish they had.

We had mantu and kashke bademjan for starters which were both nice. Especially the mantu. Then we had a mixed grill. The koobideh was good, a touch salty for my partner but good for me. Outside of the salt not much flavour. The chicken was very juicy. The main problem was the lamb pieces, just very bland unfortunately. Chewy and bland really. The rice was also really bad, not what you expect from a Persian restaurant. It’s just easy cook rice, you can tell. On that basis alone I’d give it 4, as the service was great and friendly and the restaurant looks really good. The reason it gets a 3 is the prices. Super expensive for what it is, would expect higher quality and tastier food. Would give another chance happily however.

Being new to London I decided to explore the area and came across Zeytoon by chance. I popped in with my friend and we ordered a large variety of items including:- Kobedah- chicken joujeh- Khashk bademjanWhilst the majority of the food was OK (not good by any means) one particular dish stood out as really bad, this was the Kashk Badmenjan. I believe that the Kashk that was used had gone off as it tasted like very very badly gone off milk and had small specs of green (mould?) in it. Now I am of Persian descent so I know my Afghani cuisine very well, Kashk can taste slightly sour as it is fermented but this was completely different, it was actually gone off.After speaking to the waitress (who was very polite I must admit) she agreed that something wasn't right and took it away which confirmed my initial thoughts.The rest of the food was OK but felt it lacked a lot of the care an attention that Afghani people pride themselves on. The dishes were a mixture of lukewarm and cold and I felt that the rice had been reheated as it had a dry and stale taste. The Mantoo was quite bland and didn't really have any flavour that popped (it was also covered in the rotten Kashk unfortunately). The grills kobedah and chicken) were quite dry and did not really amaze either of us.Overall I would say that this restaurant has a lot of potential but it feels like they are cutting corners at every chance they get. To the owners, please take some more care into your food. Perhaps try to visit Ariana across the road as their food is honestly of much higher standard and quality.The restaurant is very clean and well presented, I cannot complain about any of the staff as they were all polite, well dressed and took care of us.Shame because this place has potential. Thank you.

Firstly the best Koobideh ever! Out of all the other restaurants leading like kish, this beats them all! Clean tender lamb no cartilage bits like others.And lastly and most importantly also Roya and family are just the sweetest of people ever it’s like I’m eating at a family friends home. I love you guys!

What a joy to be in Zaytoon restaurant. Excellent food serving great variety and best meat.Traditional decor and kind staff.Food lovers, you can ask for special meals when you pre-book and have it ready amazingly on your table.Recently tried their custom made herbal tea after a very heavy, healthy and beautiful meal.

Wow what a great find! Quality Persian food that is reasonably priced. A family run establishment with care in service and tasty dishes. The lamb Koubideh and Joojeh Kabab were tender and fresh!

I don’t know what it is about this place, but the way the food tastes so on point with the flavour and satisfaction it’s just something out of this world. I’ve never been disappointed. I have a spiritual experience whenever I eat here or have food from here. 10/10
