" Zest is among my top choices for Mediterranean cuisine! The food is rich with flavor and authenticity. I ordered the vegetarian platter, which included a delightful mix of falafel, baba ghanoush, and tabbouleh that complemented each other exceptionally well. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the restaurant was maintained flawlessly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a hearty meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Zest Mediterranean, and it was such a pleasure. The flavors in each dish were pronounced and memorable. The staff takes their time to explain the menu, which is nice for those who might be unfamiliar with the cuisine. My lamb shawarma was delightful and paired well with a side of hummus. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I popped into Zest on a whim and was more than pleasantly surprised! Those falafels? Absolutely fantastic! Crispy, hot, and perfect with the tahini. The setting was warm and inviting, making it great for a casual date night. I’d recommend anyone to stop here for a quick meal and good conversation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me just say, the falafel at Zest is the best I’ve ever had. Truly crispy on the outside while fluffy on the inside. I also had a chance to try the grilled veggies and they were seasoned just right! It's rare to find such a nice spot that combines decent prices with great quality food. The restaurant is a bit small, which makes it intimate, and the staff were sweet and helpful. I can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zest was recommended by a friend and I couldn't be happier with my visit. The food was fresh and flavorful—the falafel was crispy on the outside but tender and fluffy inside. My server was extremely polite and always ensured my needs were met. I cannot wait to introduce this hidden gem to my family. " (*Curated Review*)
