Our Story

A modern take on a Lebanese classic — now arriving in America.

Zaatar W Zeit is one of the Middle East's most recognized fast-casual restaurant brands, built on a simple idea: honor the traditional manoushe by baking it fresh, all day, in a space that feels distinctly modern.

For over two decades we've served millions of guests across the region — pairing authentic Lebanese flavors with the pace, design, and hospitality of the world's best contemporary restaurants.

Today, we're bringing that experience home to the United States.
