Newer of the two locations in Masjid Nabwi area (this one is located on the Qibla side in a newly built museum/mall). We saw the good reviews and went in with some doubts if it will live up to those and it definitely did. The restaurant does get busy after salahs so be aware. It is an order & pay first at counter and then hand the receipt to the server. There are ample menus that you can take and even sit at table to decide, then order. Prices are great. You can pay by AMEX, VISA/other cards or cash. We ordered chicken shawarma and chicken biryani. The shawarma was ample size but tasty and chicken biryani was delicious. Biryani looked filled with spices but it was just the right amount of spice while not compromising flavour (As per westernized Pakistani). Do not expect spicy Pakistani biryani because you will be disappointed. Biryani was good enough size to share. The server, Fahad was friendly and even asked us if we wanted something else when we were about to finish to which we ordered mango ice cream for only 10 SAR. The ice cream tasted like fresh mangoes and was good enough to share between 2 people. The place also has multiple hand washing areas with soap which is definitely a plus point. I would be recommending the place to my friends and family when they come to Madinah. May الله SWT bless this business and put barakah in their dealings.

I recently tried the Butter Chicken and Chicken Biryani at this restaurant, and I must say that both dishes were absolutely delicious! Butter Chicken The Butter Chicken was rich and flavorful, with a creamy sauce that complemented the tender and juicy chicken perfectly. Chicken Biryani The Chicken Biryani was also outstanding, with fragrant basmati rice and a rich, complex flavor profile. The chicken was cooked to perfection, making each bite a delight. Service The service at this restaurant was top-notch, with friendly and efficient staff. Thanks to Anis and all the staff. Price The prices at this restaurant were very reasonable, making it an excellent value for the quality and quantity of food. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic and delicious cuisine. *Rating* 5/5 stars

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had the pleasure of being served by Arif at Zaitoon Restaurant, and I must say, his service was exceptional! From the moment we walked in, he greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. Arif was attentive without being intrusive, always ensuring our drinks were full and our needs were met. His recommendations were spot on, and he took the time to explain the menu with genuine enthusiasm. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and values his customers. Thank you, Arif, for making our dining experience so enjoyable! You truly deserve recognition for your outstanding service. ZUBAIR HEJAZI LIBYAN REVIEWER

"I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and I must say that the food was truly excellent! The portions were just right, and I appreciated the generous serving sizes. However, I did have one suggestion for improvement: the chicken tikka could be refined to better match traditional recipes. Additionally, it would be great to see it served with chips and at least one roti, as is common in many Indian restaurants. Overall, I was impressed with the quality of the food and the generous portions. With a bit of tweaking to the chicken tikka dish, I think this restaurant could truly excel!"

Best food I’ve had in saudi yet. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. You can tell they care about the quality of the food and the people they serve. Got a bunch of different items from the menu and was able to feed six people under 80 riyal. Food was extremely fresh, great flavor and their sauces are amazing. They had this tamarind sauce with the seekh kabob that was fire, and the rice was amazing with the sauce they provided too. Highly recommend for anyone to go here and it’s in a perfect location. There’s a reason why they have such great reviews please don’t miss out

We went after the Iftar time. The ambiance and location is amazing. We ordered chicken Qabsa rice which was okish as the chicken was only quarter portion and taste was 7/10. We were served by Arif who was a nice gentleman. Other than that, basbusa cake and karak chai was nice. Edit: we went second time to try Pakistani thinking it would be their specialty. We ordered chicken qorma which was only quarter chicken hardly for 25 SAR although taste was good. So, keep in mind, you sre paying for the ambiance, not for the food/quantity while going there.
