I've been going here for years since I was a teenager and it's always been the best. I know I can always come here when I'm craving food from my childhood, it's Red Bank's best kept secret as far as Lebanese cuisine is concerned. Always delicious food and quality service.

Only place within 20 miles that sells frozen minced Molokhia leaves! Amazing place with homemade toom and fresh pita. Haven’t tried their meals, but I’m sure it’s amazing.

Small deli with a few small tables. GREAT food with very generous portions. Gyro sandwich was phenomenal. Very good hummus, too. Veggies were fresh and flavorful. Great lunch spot!

Yum!! How have I not heard that this is legitimately THE BEST gyro around? I did hear the falafels here are unreal, but I can only eat so much at a time. Definitely in my next order. I work in the area, so they will be getting my lunch money frequently. Probably best for my wallet that I've only just discovered this place. I ordered takeout but would 100% sit in and have lunch with friends/family. Very cute. It looks like it might be a father/son working there. The gentlemen were very nice, and who doesn't love supporting a family owned business! Gyro Platter includes: Gyro meat, flat beans, hummus, babaghanouj, and of course tzatziki sauce and pita (lovely, light, perfect pita) The prices are excellent for the portion. My platter will last me lunch and dinner.

I go for hummus, olive oil - best tasting and best price, and for lunch falafel and soups. Well worth a side trip for this stuff vs a grocery store.

I just moved to the area & cannot get enough of this spot! very healthy options. The inside is also very charming & comfortable. This place should have 5 stars, what great food, price & service! Some of the most authentic food I have had to date. The falafel is amazing a must try! The spinach pie is very well balanced & the Greek salad is simple & very fresh. Everything on the menu is A+ cannot go wrong with any choice.

Fantastic and authentic food! I love the flavors and the hummus and Baba Ganoush are both perfect! 100% recommend this place!

You won't find a better restaurant for Lebanese cuisine. This is a great family-run restaurant with delicious fresh options. If you're in the mood for authentic, affordable, Mediterranean options, this is the place! Tried the baba ganoush, beef gyros, baklava, hummus, and they were all delightful. I can't recommend this place highly enough! This is the kind of restaurant you want to check out if you're in Red Bank!

The BEST FALAFEL I have ever had. I am an avid falafel enthusiast -always comparing back to the hand-made falafels from the streets of New York- and Zaitooni's Deli managed to surpass the expectation of the big Apple. Rich with flavour and a defining subtle crunch, Zaitooni cuisine drills home the fresh aspects of leafy Mediterranean cuisine. One of my favourites for Mediterranean cuisine and would highly recommend for a healthy, flavourful dish.

The food is tasty enough, but not nearly what it was under the prior owners. If you want tabouli salad, call first because they don't make it every day. ☹️
