The location is great with an awesome view especially if you get the balcony seating. Our server, Karen was awesome. The drinks were good. The crab and mango spring rolls and the jumbo crab pea toast was really nice. I wasn’t wowed by the entrees which felt very standard. We had the pasta of the day with a side of Brussel sprouts. The appetizers have variety and are presented well which I think carries the menu. Good choice for a date night. Scores an 8/10 on my personal score.

This is easily one of my favorite places to come to in Bethlehem. The drinks are great and priced well. The service has always been wonderful and accommodating. The food is always made fresh and full of flavor. They also have a great brunch every weekend. The views and atmosphere are what really makes this spot special. Definitely recommend to everyone to try it out.

If you are debating going to Zest, just go! The views from any table in the room is beautiful. Our server was SO helpful and knowledgeable about everything on the menu and was personable. She knew we were celebrating a friend getting a new job and gave her complimentary champagne and even a cute and thoughtful toast!! I’ve heard people talk highly of this place but it completely exceeded my expectations! I got the roast and it was PHENOMENAL. I didn’t like the sides that came with it on the menu and I was able to substitute them for another. As a picky eater, this made me really thankful.

Zest is absolutely fantastic. The views the food the atmosphere. I think we just had the best old fashioned and scallops we have ever had. The whole experience was just wonderful and beautiful. I was able to share my Bone Marrow dish and they were very impressed as well. I love that.

Boneless beef ribs, meat was tender but did not go good with the veggies. Spinach was salty. Roasted chickpeas were overcooked and mushy. Crispy chicken dumplings was just ok. Service was acceptable and nice atmosphere
