We dined here last Tuesday night and can say it ranks as one of the best meals we had in Italy....we shared a magnificent calamari entree, I had a lovely chicken dish stuffed with prunes and other goodies..other half had grilled salmon...both dishes were over salted for our taste which I mentioned to the waiter, though I don't cook with...

We had a delightful dinner and visit with the owner. Zest has gluten free pasta which was priceless for me. Dont miss this place when in Siena; food, wine and atmosphere can't be beat. We were there in the evening when the flag throwers were practicing with the drums. It was loud but actually added to the authenticity of the... More

We came upon Zest on what I would consider a back street, and found the restaurant to be very inviting. We both felt this one one of our best... More

Whilst experiences are different for every individual and obviously subjective, my experience at Zest was a little lacklustre. The meals themselves were quite good and reasonably priced, but it was the slow service that lost marks here. The meals took a long time to come out, and even getting the bill took two requests and ten minutes. Also, whilst all... More

although the food was great and we had a great time at this restaurant we thought it was a bit overpriced
