Lovely cozy and intimate restaurant. The service was impeccable and the 4 course meal for restaurant week could not be better. Every plate was an artwork and tasted amazing. Special compliments to the game fillet. I have never seen nor tasted such a perfectly prepared piece of fillet. I would really recommend this restaurant to anyone.

From the bread, and the 4 courses that followed... Wow all round! A hidden gem that is a must! The pea soup was the best I have tasted and the fillet steak was melt in your mouth good! The coffee panna cotta converted me to a panna cotta lover (never liked it before)
2nd Restaurant week choice was awesome!

Last night my partner and I enjoyed a magnificent meal at Zest Bistro. It was our second restaurant as part of Restaurant Week 2018, and WOW we were blown away. We have both wanted to experience the bistro before but had not had the opportunity. Last night we got to experience what we had been missing out on!! It was a beautiful setting, cozy and welcoming. We were offered the choice of anything from the menu or the 4-course menu they had selected. After much debate and bubbles, we opted for the set menu.... What a great choice!!! Pea Soup and salmon starter, followed by a venison Carpaccio, a Fillet, and Risotto main, all topped off with a Coffee Pannacotta.
There aren't enough words to explain this experience, so let's go with mind-blowingly awesome! One chef in the kitchen, a small bistro, perfect atmosphere, and the most incredible date night out in a long time!!! Thank you. If you have not been there, don't wait as long as we did!!! Just go!! you will not regret it.
