" My family and I recently tried Zarzoor and it was amazing! We started with an array of appetizers, and everything was so fresh. The atmosphere was lively and warm, drawing you in from the start. The main course, especially the kabob dishes, was incredibly juicy with fantastic seasoning. While the service could have been a bit quicker, the staff was friendly and made sure to check in on us often. At the end of the meal, we enjoyed a lovely tea service, which added a nice touch to our dinner. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for true authentic Iraqi cuisine.

" Very impressed with Zarzoor! We came as a big family and were pleased with how they handled our group. The portion sizes were generous, and the food was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the lamb quzi, as it was perfectly seasoned and incredibly tender. The staff was friendly, and I felt that they genuinely wanted us to have a great experience. A minor hiccup in service timing didn’t detract much from our overall enjoyment. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others looking for authentic Iraqi food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zarzoor Restaurant caught my attention with its vibrant ambiance and authentic Iraqi dishes. My evening started well, with a warm greeting and prompt seating. We enjoyed the lentil soup and hummus, but the highlight was definitely the mixed grill platter, which was flavorful and incredibly filling. The service was a bit slow at times, especially when we needed drink refills, but the staff was polite and attentive when approached. Overall, an enjoyable dining experience, and I would return to explore more of their menu selections. " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot express enough how impressed I was with my experience at Zarzoor Restaurant! From the moment we entered, we were greeted with warm smiles and an inviting atmosphere. The interior design captured the essence of Middle Eastern culture beautifully. We decided to try the mixed grill and the lamb quzi, and both dishes exceeded our expectations. The flavors were authentic and rich, reminding me of home-cooked meals from my childhood. The service was fantastic as well; our server, Ahmed, was attentive and genuinely cared about our dining experience. We ended our meal with the famous Iraqi tea, which was a perfect conclusion to a wonderful evening. I cannot wait to come back with my family next time. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" The overall dining experience at Zarzoor was pleasant, but not without flaws. The service struggled to keep up with a crowded dinner rush, leading to slower than expected service. Despite this, the food was fantastic! I had the lamb quzi, and it was full of rich flavors that transported me back to traditional Iraqi cuisine. The value for the portion size was also commendable. The tea at the end was a sweet touch, fostering a welcoming goodbye. Overall, I would recommend the restaurant for its food, but keep in mind the service may vary on busier nights.

" Zarzoor is a must-visit if you're in the area. I first heard about it through friends who praised the authentic Iraqi food, and it did not disappoint! The décor felt very traditional, which enhanced the overall dining experience. We started with the dolma and lentil soup, followed by the lamb quzi, and everything was spot on. The portions were huge, generous enough for sharing, or for taking leftovers home! The service was friendly, though it took a bit longer than expected for our main courses to arrive, which is understandable given how busy the place was. I am looking forward to returning to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a taste of authentic Iraqi cuisine, look no further than Zarzoor! My meal was nothing short of spectacular. It felt like I was over at a friend's house enjoying a home-cooked meal. The lamb was tender and flavorful, and the tea that followed was a nice way to cap off our meal. Although it was quite busy, we managed to receive solid service. I highly recommend not just trying a meal, but immersing yourself in the delightful atmosphere they offer. " (*Curated Review*)
