First time visiting Zena Kitchen early evening all the way from Birmingham. Had the whole place to ourselves, table for 2 as it was midweek. Lovely decor, atmosphere and service was friendly and on point. A little pricey but the quality of the food is great and tasty with a varied menu so something for everyone. Definitely Recommend and will be back to try some other things on the menu. Thanks Zena Kitchen. š
A lovely restaurant, the first Lebanese restaurant in the town I think, it's large, bright and roomy.
The staff were really friendly and helpful explaining how the meal is prepared and cooked. We had a beautiful meal and the waiter went above and beyond in the service he gave us.
I also had a chance to speak to the chef and we exchanged notes, well more like he gave me advice on how to cook.
Lovely experience and definitely going back
Pete was a great with us, the cocktails he made were amazing and such a good price. The food was spectacular and such a variety. Definitely coming back. Perfect place for friends family and a romantic evening.
Celebrated my stepdads birthday here tonight and had an amazing time.
The food was amazing , the staff were super helpful and friendly. We can't wait to come back with friends.
Tried Pideli for the first time. Very impressed with the quality of the food and service was amazing. The bread was freshly baked and by far the best Turkish bread I've eaten. Will definitely come back and try the breakfast next time! Thank you Saleh (owner) for thanking us after our meal and having a good conversation.
My 4 year old daughter needed to use the bathroom and so we went in to see if she could use the facilities there. The man that greeted us was so welcoming and said we could use the facilities. Once my daughter had finished we were just leaving and the same man brought me daughter some baklava - we didnāt purchase anything but he wanted her to have it. Such a nice gesture and it was really good baklava, would now like to go back. Fantastic customer service and exceeded expectations! Thank you
Service is great, food could do with a little more flavour.

Food:
The food is okay. Unfortunately we felt like most of the dishes needed a little more seasoning.
The veggie Mantarli Ispanakli Pide we ordered had far too many peas and the veggie Patlicanli Pide was a little soggy so we couldn't eat much.
The food isn't bad, but it just needs that little lift to make it worthwhile coming back again.
The bread that came with the Humus was really nice though! And the little touches like complimentary first Turkish tea are really nice. A rarity in restaurants nowadays.
Service:
The service was really good, but the kitchen was a little slow at times.
Front of house staff were very attentive.
Alfie was the highlight of our visit and really made us feel welcome. He was always happy to help with any of our questions and a real asset to Pideli. The restaurant manager also did well to look after us.
The cocktails are nice and made with a good amount of alcohol. Shout out to Maria for making them well.
Venue:
Nicely decorated place. Smart looking and clean.
Would have rated Pideli 3 stars based on food but the service pulled it up.

Went for a family birthday lunch & it was amazing from start to finish. Peter couldn't do enough for us & the food was delicious! We highly recommend Zena Kitchen & will definitely be back..
I've had one of my all time best steaks here, and everyone in my party said that their food was excellent!
I donāt usually leave reviews but I was really impressed with Zena. The restaurant is so modern and fresh and the food was of a very high quality and very tasty. Staff was very attentive. It felt like being in a high class restaurant which is not what gets offered in any of the other Turkish restaurants Iāve been too. Finally a decent restaurant in Aylesbury. Weāll be back again. Donāt hesitate to try it.
After 4 monthsā¦
I have been to Zena one more time and have also ordered for delivery. So impressed.
Today I could cry. So disappointed. The previous owners have left and the restaurant has got new owners and a confused menu, stuff and food taste. I couldnāt think of a better restaurant then Zena in Aylesbury and now itās ruined. Such a shame.
