Zest is my go to when I'm craving Mediterranean cuisine! I am a creature of habit so I always get the same thing and I'm never disappointed. Chicken kabob plate which comes with two generous and delicious chicken kabobs, a huge portion of rice (enough for lunch the next day) a fresh greek salad with dressing on the side, hummus and a creamy garlic sauce + pita bread! Such a great value and so incredibly good! I also always order a large Lentil soup, it's the best you'll ever have, my whole family loves it!

This was the best meal I have had all year! Wonderful staff and owner, very friendly and helpful as it was our first time visiting. Made excellent menu suggestions and everything was incredible! Very clean inside, fast friendly service and will most definitely be back soon. The hummus and fattoush salad were favorites, as well as the falafel and beef shawarma plate. Baklava ice cream was a delicious surprise!! Highly recommend
