    Their food is so delicious and the service is excellent, reasonable price and lovely cozy restaurant. I loved their starters idea, a mini saj manakeesh maker so brilliant. The only thing missing from the menu is raw kebbe but everything else is there. Just don't over fry the fries. Ahnad thank you so much for your extraordinary service, you made our night.

    I genuinely wanted to be enthralled by this restaurant, particularly since it came highly recommended by a good friend. The ambiance struck a perfect balance of luxury and coziness, while the decor transported us to an opulent world of culinary adventures. Each dish was presented beautifully, resembling art more than food. However, the actual flavors were slightly underwhelming for our palates. Given the upscale nature of the restaurant and the price point, we expected a stronger focus on the quality and portion of the proteins, particularly in the 'awsal' dish. Instead, the plate was disproportionately laden with carbohydrates. The meat itself was tender and grilled to perfection, but it lacked in terms of seasoning. It seemed as though they were leaning more towards letting the natural flavors of the meat shine through, but to our taste buds, it felt slightly under-seasoned. On a high note, the pepperoni pizza was exceptional. A delightful and balanced combination of crust, sauce, and topping that reinvigorated our faith in the culinary skills of the establishment. Despite our mixed experience, I believe this restaurant has the potential to impress given its evident attention to ambiance, decor, and presentation. It just needs to tweak its flavor profiles to match the expectations set by its aesthetic appeal and pricing.

    A relatively new spot on what I call the restaurant avenue. Very nice place with excellent outdoor seating area. Our server Hussein was outstanding and deserves 5 stars. The food was good but not distinguished. Prices may seem high but portions were generous bucking the trend at other places. Bread was excellent and made in house. We tried several classic Lebanese menu items and enjoyed them.

    Zankil is a fine restaurant with classy vibes Service is excellent and fast. Food: Lebanese cousin and it is so delicious , besides they provide creative complimentary appetizer. Seating areas: are various and comfortable, there are outdoor and indoor seating Restroom is available Staff are so welcoming and helpful Location: is reachable but since that area is so crowded; Zankil provides valley parking service which is convenient, so ladies don’t worry of looking for one 😃 Finally: Enjoy your time and always smile 😃❤️

    The ambience and the location were top but the food was just about average! It was a little pricey too… the service without a doubt was amazing as you’d expect from a restaurant that charges so heavily. The chicken tenders were good, the Hummus with Meat was okay as I have had far better and the Alfredo Pasta was just about decent. I think they can do better with their food.

    I would definitely recommend my dining experience as 5🌟. Every aspect of dining was perfect especially considering the opulent ambience of the restaurant with high ceiling and ample parking spaces outside. We ordered the Chicken Kebab, Meat Kebab, lebnah zaatar, fatoosh salad and Ginger Tea. The kebabs were absolutely succulent being accompanied with fries, sauces and grilled vegetables. Even the presentation of the grill is very eye-catching. They even served a complimentary taster having sauces and tiny breads. The overall dining experience is absolutely fabulous with great emphasis on food quality, taste and presentation. I would genuinely recommend this restaurant to all the grill lovers and Lebanese cuisine fanatics.

    For the price, selection was quite good, better than most with a higher price range. The fresh juice smoothies are a must try.

    Thanks to the smily handsome waiter Baha’a for his outstanding service & food recommendations. He served us with full love & pleasure and prepared the favorite pizza for my kid margarita with black olives which is not available in their menu. Good vibe with good food & ambiance.

    Went here for dinner. Place is good and ambiance is perfect for a fine dining that made my expectations high. But when the food came, the lamb chops that I have ordered is 120 riyals. After staying 4 years in saudi arabia, I can say that it is the worst. I can tell because the fries is hot, fresh, and crispy but the meat is disappointing. Maybe their other disbes are good but avoid this one at all cost. The 40 riyals lamb chops at bukhari are more worth it. To add to the food are the food handlers, after eating, of course you need some time to sit down and relax, talk to your friends, but as to my surprise, they started taking the plates and cleaning the table EVEN THOUGH they know we are still talking. I felt like they just want you to go. Kalas! If not for my friends, I will never go to this place. Go spend your money somewhere else which has better food and customer service. Everybody deserves nice things and Zalkin is not one of those. Ciao
