Most Disliked
During peak times, particularly Saturdays, the bistro can reach full capacity, leading to longer wait times for seating. Some visitors have noted that reservations are highly recommended to avoid disappointment, especially for larger groups. While the menu offers many options, a few diners expressed a desire for even more variety, particularly concerning vegetarian and vegan dishes. Additionally, a handful of reviews mentioned occasional noise levels could rise during crowded hours, which may detract from a relaxed dining experience. Understanding these aspects can help manage expectations for new visitors.

We just happened across Lezzet in Scarborough as we were wandering around and so glad we did! The food platters were excellent between 4 of us, a meze sharing platter for 2 along with a mixed grill platter was ample for 4 and incredibly tasty. The sauces were great and the chicken on the mixed platter were delicious The service and staff were all really nice and so helpful and pleasant

Delicious authentic food in a comfy restaurant at a reasonable price. 4 filling mains, 4 Desserts and 4 beers/soft drinks for £108. Friendly staff, we had a lovely experience. The homemade baklava were a treat! Would definitely recommend booking if you prefer an inside table.

Lezzet Mediterranean Bistro is absolutely one of my favourite places in Scarborough. From the moment you walk in, there’s a feeling that this is somewhere special. The interior is warm and inviting with lovely decor that makes the meal feel like more than just dinner—it feels like a treat. The food is spectacular. Every dish bursts with flavour. Their mixed grill is amazing: tender meat, beautiful char, generous sides—and the sharing platters are genuinely excellent, plenty to go around without feeling skimpy. Vegetarians and people with dietary restrictions will be pleased too; there are good options, and everything I tried felt fresh and well prepared. The hummus, dips, fresh breads, salads—all of it contributes to a rich and satisfying meal experience. The service is another highlight. The staff are always polite, attentive, and genuinely seem to care that you’re enjoying your meal. Small touches—asking how things are, being helpful about the menu, accommodating allergies—all done with a smile. Even when busy, they manage the flow well so you don’t feel forgotten.

Came here on one of our random selections for some late night food (got here around 9pm on a Saturday). Place was busy inside so we decided to sit outside as the weather was nice and was still under cover from the sea gulls nearby. Manager was nice and recommended dishes to us which we decided to have. Food was amazing, and if we were local, this would be one of our regular haunts and we will come back again if we are ever up this way.
