Lebanese restaurant serving dishes from the Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisines including Shish Taouk, Shawarma, vegetarian and vegan options, salads and entrées.
Reviews describe Zaytouni as a standout for authentic Lebanese food with generous portions, fresh salads and a wide range of dishes from shawarma and saj wraps to hummus and garlic sauce, all praised for their vibrant flavors and quality ingredients. Diners frequently highlight the crispy, well seasoned shawarma, juicy chicken and the light, flaky wraps, with many calling it the best Lebanese fast food they have tried outside Lebanon; the salad bar and fattoush are also noted for freshness. The atmosphere is described as clean and welcoming with fast, friendly service and attentive staff, though a few experiences mention delivery delays, cold food and missing items along with less helpful responses, indicating occasional inconsistency. Overall the place is viewed as a go to spot, a West Island hidden gem offering great value and memorable flavors, especially for shawarma and saj sandwiches.
I had an amazing experience at Zaytouni & it easily deserves 5 stars.
I tried their crispy shish taouk trio sandwich combo (comes with potatoes & a drink for $18.95), & it was absolutely delicious. What really sets them apart is their'crispy' option - they grill the sandwich so the pita gets perfectly toasted & crunchy, which takes it to another level.
The chicken was juicy & flavorful, & the texture from the crispy pita made every bite even better. But the real standout is their sauce - it has this unique taste thanks to their homemade pomegranate syrup, & it ties everything together so well.
Overall, super satisfying meal, great quality, & definitely something I'll be craving again. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Friendliest service & most incredible CRISPY shawarma - the hype is real! Our sandwiches (one chicken, one beef) were super tasty & servings were extremely generous… & the light, flakey & crispy wrap was next level! Can't forget to mention the generous serving of the potatoes with garlic sauce… if you know, you know! All their sides & salads looked so fresh & vibrant - we'll have to go back, that's for sure! Thank you for a great experience!
One of the best saj mixed wraps I've ever had. It was absolutely delicious. I almost went to the AYCE sushi restaurant next door but decided I'd try Zaytouni instead & I'm so glad that I changed my mind. It smelled amazing when I walked in, & I knew I made the right decision. The person working was so nice & asked if I wanted my sandwich toasted & I said yes & it was perfection. So much flavour, the meat was not dry & seasoned perfectly, it wasn't drowning in garlic sauce & was filled appropriately. I recommended it to atleast 4 people after I left. I also ordered a fattouche salad which was tasty but I preferred the sandwich more. Highly recommend!
Fantastic! Especially the'custom' sandwich. The chicken isn't dry & is seasoned perfectly, presentation is super, most importantly everything is fresh! Everyone needs to have the Saj sandwich. Go now!
I dropped off a friend at the SAAQ, I was looking for parking & then I saw this new restaurant. I wasn't hungry but I wanted to try it. I went in & asked for a Saj Chicken sandwich & it took only 3 minutes to be ready & the staff were awesome! Not expensive, tasty & an awesome first impression. Will be coming back since the gentleman at the counter mentioned that everything is halal
I am quite fond of middle eastern food & this place is close to my office so I had to give it a try, glad that I did. First off, you can tell that the owner is big on cleanliness as the restaurant was squeaky clean down to every square inch. I ordered the beef saj wrap, a hefty sandwich that was a great portion for the price. The owner was a bit stringent on only using traditional toppings for the sandwich, which I guess I can respect, but he did allow me to customize it as I like. The ingredients were all of notable quality, particularly their hummus.
I took one shawarma chicken sandwich to try! Really liked it ordered another immediately! The guy that made my sandwichs really made sure fill them up completely. Good service. Great food. I did find the music in the store a bit annoying to be honest. It was good experience will be coming back soon.

If you are looking for amazing & delicious Lebanese cuisine, please visit Zaytouni in Pointe-Claire! Hot & generous portions at great prices! Served fast by the owner, it's my go-to for shish taouk plates or sandwiches!
Zaytouni is one of the best Lebanese restaurants I've ever tried. The food is always fresh & delicious , you can really taste the quality in every bite. Whether it's the shawarma sandwich, the hummus/garlic sauce, or their amazing plates, everything is packed with authentic flavor.
The portions are generous, the service is friendly, & the ambiance is warm & welcoming. The restaurant is also always super clean. It truly feels like a taste of Lebanon close to home.
I highly recommend Zaytouni to anyone looking for real, high-quality Lebanese food!
