Phenomenal Food, Cloud Kitchen Experience
My experience was with a cloud kitchen, not a traditional restaurant. I discovered it on Google Maps while walking in the area and decided to stop by. To get food, you need to order through an app and then pick it up.
I ordered the Lamb & Beef Kabob Rice Bowl for $20. 45, and it was excellent. The bowl included seasoned rice, vegetables with a great crunch, and tender, juicy lamb that strongly tasted of lamb.
It was garnished with parsley and served with a small container of pink, salty yogurt sauce. While the food was great, eating it outside on the two clean benches with a garbage can nearby wasn't an amazing dining experience, but it was better than nothing, especially since most cloud kitchens lack any dining area. The food was rated 5/5 and service was rated 5/5, but the atmosphere was rated 1/5.

Tasty Food, Risky Hummus
My experience at the restaurant involved trying the lamb hummus plate and my girlfriend ordering the falafel hummus plate. Both dishes were very tasty. However, the next day, we both experienced food poisoning, and we suspect the hummus was the cause as it was the only item we shared.
I imagine the hummus may have been refrigerated for too long. It's very sad because the food itself was very good.

Tiny wrap, big price
My experience at the restaurant was disappointing due to the portion size and price. I paid $18 (pickup, before tax) for what turned out to be a tiny wrap. I've included a photo for reference.
I suggest either lowering the price or making the wrap bigger.

Cauliflower Rice Disappointment
My experience at this restaurant used to be great, especially with their cauliflower rice. However, lately, it's been disappointing. There's a lot of weird oil, and it lacks the good spices like zaatar or even lemon.
To make matters worse, when I tried to get help by calling the provided number, no one replied.

Disappointing Food, Not as Pictured
We recently moved nearby and were excited to try this restaurant after seeing the photos online. While the photographer did an excellent job, the actual food did not live up to the images. We ordered vegetarian dishes and found the fries to be soggy, even though we picked them up as soon as they were ready.
The hummus was bland, and the salad was unappetizing, even after a tiring moving day. It's possible the meat dishes are better, but our vegetarian experience was underwhelming.

Flavorful Chicken and Apt Portion
I tried the Keto cluck katoush salad. The chicken was flavorful and the portion size was apt. I will order again.

Consistently Impressive Food Quality
I recently ordered from Za'atar for the second time via Uber Eats, and I can confidently say that I was not disappointed! The quality of the food is consistently impressive, and the flavors are even better. My experience was great, and I highly recommend their Fattoush Salad.

Disappointing Billing Transparency
My experience involved ordering through Uber Eats with a promotion applied, which resulted in a discount. While the food was acceptable, I was disappointed to discover that the receipt did not add up correctly, and there was an unexplained additional charge. A discount should not come at the expense of billing transparency.
This situation left me feeling annoyed. I hope the restaurant addresses this issue moving forward.

Excellent Food and Service!
As someone from Toronto, Canada, where we have some of the best food, this restaurant truly impressed me. I visited two days in a row because the service and food were so good!
