Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This place is number one for a reason - the place is cute with great atmosphere, the server was very friendly and gave recommendations, and the food was SO GOOD. Filled with different tastes - great falafel with the freshness of pomegranate, mango, etc. Amazing, it's a must go place for sure.
I went there on a Saturday around 3pm, so there was plenty of room but I think it is pretty busy during dinner rush.

I’m not very familiar with Lebanon kitchen, but if you are looking for vegetarian food in Tampere, this is the place to visit. Fresh ingredients overall, great hummus and falafel. Cozy atmosphere and friendly service.

Brilliant fresh food 👌🏽 Lots of different flavours yet the dishes were simple and beautiful.
A compact cozy space with a nice atmosphere. Customer service was pleasant and friendly. The food came out super fast from the kitchen. I can only recommend this place warmly, especially for people are looking for a good vegetarian restaurant in the city centre.

Where to begin?! We chose this restaurant because of the positive feedback. We went there to eat dinner. The restaurant was empty and we were the only customers in the hole place. We ordered starters and main meals. They dont serve alcohol. We got the starters very fast. We had started to eat the starters when they brought the main meals immediately. I ate the "libanon bread" The main meals were already cold. As I said, we were the only customers. What´s all the hurry? The food tasted ok, but it was cold and the avocado was raw. After we got the food, the staff went away. We had finished our dinner and we waited for the bill. 15 minutes goes by, then 20... half an hour. Then there came a wolt driver. He brought food for the staff. No bill for us. We then called to the restaurant from the restaurant, so that the staff would pick up the phone so that we could tell that we wanted to pay. The phone started to ring in the kitchen, but nobody answered. I then went to check the kitchen and the rooms in the back, no staff were found. We waited with our hats and jackets on fot he bill. After an hour a waitress came and told that we had to pay the bill to the counter. That they are not going to bring it to the table. All this show and cold food. We dont recommend the pöace at all. Something positive? it looked a clean place. Not worth of the money.

Small and cosy place. No bad smells so well ventilated (which is difficult with all the frying (which belongs to the Lebanese cuisine).
Food was fresh and the portion size was filling. Lentil soup, water and coffee were included with lunch price of 11.90€. The plate was nicely presented.
Felafel were really good, the Hummus and Baba ghanouge were ok and the Vine-leaves rolls were home made (but over cooked, the rice has turned to mush).
The things that could be worked on:
1. Not placing the “Lebna” yogurt on the felafel, some people prefer eating the felafel with Tahina or Hummus.
2. Not to put the Taboule next to any dip (this time it was close to the Lebna and Felafel). I was disappointed for not satisfying my cravings for Taboule as it lost all taste with the mix.
3. Maybe cut the Egyptian songs and add more Lebanese music. (In my 1-hour there I heard only one song for Kathem which is the closest to Lebanese culture)… what is wrong with Fairuz, Wadih, Nawal, Raghib, Sabah and even Majda? The music was annoying and I thought putting my headphones on.
It is a restaurant worth visiting. But if you expect a taste from Baalbek, Harissa or Beirut, you will be disappointed.
I can’t give it more that 3 stars because I know Lebanese cuisine very well.

First the good things friendly service, clean restaurant. the food we ate was a mezeplate, which was totally overpriced compared to what we got. Two overcooked rockhard falafel and different kind on sauses and tiny pieces of bread was close to 20 euros. We had to the restaurant next door to have a real dinner.

We didn't quite get it why this is number 2 in Tampere. The food wasn't bad but not too good either. My bean salad was a bit too watery and I would have preferred fresh herbs instead of dried ones. Bread was not too flavorful and missed veggies inside. Maybe we didn't pick the right dishes or the quality is not that great anymore? I guess we expected more of this place based on previous amazing reviews...

Fantastic, small restaurant. We had great food, friendly service. Great prices too. I had the halloumi ‘platter’ (lots of grilled halloumi, salads, falafel, tsatsiki, hummus, chickpeas) and I was able to have tortilla chips in place of Lebanese bread as I’m gluten intolerant. €14! We had delicious pomegranate juice with our meal. Totally recommend Zeytuun. Very close to the train station too.

We had tzatziki and falafel for starters and two maze. Everything was good and filling. Baba ganoush was simply delish, next time I will order that as starter. Tzatziki and hummus were quite mild and would benefit an extra kick.
Very satisfying! We will definitely visit again when in Tampere

We visited with the family and 3 of us were young adults below 26. The space is super cosy, the menu is with excellent and clear pictures of the meals and the food was just delicious. We enjoyed so much that we were not able to eat desert.
Highly recommended ! Vegetarian food but with delicious ingredients and reasonable price. Meze were super tasty and the hamburguers were also praised. The service was done with sympathy but not over done! visit the place!!

We had booked a table beforehand which turned out to be a smart move as the restaurant was otherwise fully booked for the night.
We shared a very tasty baba gaboush as a starter and each of us had a meze platter as a main course. Everything we had tasted great and the dishes were pretty. Portion size was big enough especially together with the starters. We finished with mint tea and baclava.
The restaurant is small but has a nice atmosphere. Service was quick and friendly. All in all great dining experience in Zeytuun!

I love the vegetarian food they have, I have eaten there several times. The avocado burger is the best choice along with the orange mint smoothie. The atmosphere is also very relaxing and the music is nice. The service is excellent, and staff is very friendly.

Good food and good service. A nice restaurant that can be recommended.
We had Goat Cheese meze and all the dishes had excellent taste and a nice presentation.
We were very pleased with our visit.
If you prefer a glass of wine/beer to your dinner, it can be good to know that this establishment doesn’t offer alcoholic beverages.
