Excellent food quality with a great presentation. Clearly these guys are experts! Everything we had was excellent. We returned twice after the first time! One negative point : the table in front of the kitchen are too loud and the heat is annoying. All in all a great restaurant with acceptable prices. Queen Prawns and oysters are one of the best in SA. Fresh and sweet. The dessert Banana Parfait is surprisingly good. I’m not a banana fan but this is very tasty. The waiter also very upbeat and friendly. I enjoy the dinner very much. Don’t forget to make a reservation before you come. The decor is definitely photo worthy no lies. The food was good but my citrus cured line fish was excellent along with the the Asian oysters. The food was just normal for me however, our waiter Elijah and his lady assistance were very good with their service and it was a pleasure to be served by them. And the prawns are a definite on your order that you will never regret

Quick Takeaways 🍖 Delicious food — perfectly cooked springbok and fresh sides 👨🍳 Excellent service — professional, attentive, and friendly staff 🏙️ Great location — easy to walk to, though parking is limited 🌊 Lovely sea view — choose a front table by the open windows 💰 Fair pricing — quality matches the cost 🪑 Refined interior — elegant, clean, and modern design 🍽️ Minor service hiccups — slow food ordering and over-eager clearing 🌃 Safe area — well-lit and secure surroundings Full Review I attended Zest Restaurant in Cape Town for lunch and had a very pleasant experience overall. I ordered the springbok with salad, and from walking in to walking out, the service and standards were consistently very good. The restaurant sits on the second floor of a shopping complex, just off the main road. Parking isn’t great, but there is some on-road parking nearby, along with car parks within walking distance. If you’re staying locally, it’s a safe and comfortable walk, with well-lit streets and visible security presence throughout the area. Inside, the interior is refined and elegant, with a high-end finish that gives a clear sense of quality and prestige. If you choose the right seats, you’ll also enjoy a pleasing sea view, as the large front windows open fully to let in the ocean breeze. The staff were superb — polite, friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. Their professionalism and focus on customer satisfaction really stood out. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. My springbok was cooked perfectly, tender and full of flavour, and the side dishes complemented it well. I genuinely couldn’t fault the meal itself. From a price perspective, it offered fair value for both quality and portion size. There were, however, a couple of minor service issues. While the staff were excellent overall, they were a little too eager to clear plates and glasses mid-meal, which disrupted the otherwise relaxed atmosphere. It’s better practice to wait until the guest indicates they’re finished. Additionally, although I was ready to order food alongside my drink order, the waitress declined and returned later — adding an unnecessary 5–10 minute wait before the food order was taken. That said, the first issue seems to be a common local practice, so I won’t let it affect the overall score. All in all, Zest is a great restaurant — with quality food, professional service, a refined setting, and lovely sea views. Definitely worth a visit. 👏
