I give zeinas 1/2 a star for their hours (because I ALWAYS want to eat here on days when they’re closed. Kidding, of course, because I very much respect the family values). I am craving some grape leaves, hummus and lamb right now, and so sad i won’t be able to eat there while I’m in town because they’re closed until i leave! But.. at least 30* for the incredible food and amazing staff, owners and all!! This place is the best Lebanese food I’ve ever had. Insane!
After straying for one meal (tried a new Greek restaurant in the area) we were reminded why we order here. Not only is the staff absolutely friendly and so welcoming, their food is one of the best that I've ever had and truly authentic. Thank you for what you do!
My family and I stopped at Zeina's last night for dinner while in Utica. The food was absolutely amazing! We ordered Lebneh, the fried Kibbeh plate, the lamb gyro, the Sales gyro, and a couple of Shish Tawook skewers on the side. It was all delicious! We ended up ordering a 2nd Kibbeh plate to take home with our leftovers. We will definitely be stopping there again! Thank you for being so welcoming and serving such fabulous food!
I was so pleased with our meal here. I am vegetarian and ordered the standards: hummus, baba ghanouj, tabouli, and falafel. My sister is totally new to Lebanese food. She ordered a chicken Shawarma with Tzatziki and fries on the side. We were both thrilled with our food, and the service was friendly. If we lived in Utica, we would be back next weekend! With all my friends!

Service with a smile, amazing jokes, varied menu and food that is just plain yummy. It was my friend Sue and my first time there. It certainly won't be my last. How did I not ever eat there? I love Lebanese food and it is so healthy for you. As a registered dietitian and as a foodie, I highly recommend eating at Zeina's.
Omg I love the chicken gyro bowl!!!! Wish I knew about this place way before now��� staff is also very friendly
Zeinas is the best Lebanese food in Utica, and the owners are the nicest people ever!! I love their grape leaves, tuboleh, and hummus, and their salads, omg, I can go on and on and on!!
When my parents were alive. We ordered to go all the time. This was my first time here. Dishes were huge and food was amazing. The owners are good friends with my family. And they told me how much they miss and love my mom. Made me cry. But great service and food portions are huge and very reasonably priced
It is always a pleasure to eat here. Friendly family atmosphere and the vegetarian food is delish! �
