Zest

"Zest is a stylish, laid-back spot, set within a chic hotel in the bustling St Julian’s district. The menu mixes influences from many Asian countries, so you can choose anything from tempura of local red prawns to sushi or spicy Thai curry; whatever you pick, freshness and quality are assured." - Michelin Inspector

The food here was very good, especially to me the Chicken Gong Bao was 10/10! The service was impeccable and everyone was professional and friendly. Our server was Ivan and he was very good with us and we had some help and introduction from maybe the manager(not sure honestly) who also helped with a random question I had about the city. We found out about this restaurant about 40 minutes before we went and were lucky to book a reservation right before we went. Loved this restaurant, would definitely come back! For breakdown- we got 2 appetizers, 3 sushi rolls, and 3 cocktails and it was less than €100 before tip :)

This was a phenomenal first meal in Malta, there is a reason this is on the Michelin guide! Every item we ordered from start to finish including drinks was packed with flavour and craft. We went with some of the menu recommendations by our waiter, starting with: -Pork soup dumplings (UNREAL) -Chicken bao buns (such a beautiful flavour) -Prawn tempura (fantastic) -two rolls -pad Thai (such a balanced flavour) Do yourself a favour and make a reso because we are already planning a return visit during our four nights here. It was amazing, thank you for an unforgettable meal!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Zest Restaurant, St. Julian’s – Malta An unbelievable gourmet experience! Every dish was absolutely phenomenal – from the satay skewers and delicate gyoza dumplings, to perfectly prepared teppanyaki, delicious goreng, and the unforgettable Peking duck. Flawless in taste, beautifully presented, and served in a wonderful atmosphere. The staff were friendly, professional, and gave excellent wine recommendations to pair with the dishes. If you’re looking for a truly exceptional culinary experience in Malta, Zest is the place to be. 👌 Highly recommended to anyone who wants to enjoy a real culinary show and top-class dining experience!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT HERE! Top tier service from the start and I just felt welcomed. Beautiful interior and the food was phenomenal. The waiters/waitress were very attentive and always checking in with us during the entire dinner service. I highly recommend stopping by to eat at Zest!

We had a great time here, the food was amazing, possibly the best dim sum I've had! Wish we could have eaten more! For the Atmosphere we had Desi Campbell, who's singing was great, and at a perfect level, so we could listen to and enjoy it, but also still talk easily. The virgin pina colada was a very pleasant highlight. Amazing night!

Extremely confused by the reviews. Tried 3 curries, all tasted under seasoned and the same goes with the noodles. Sushi and cocktails were also not great. Generally I don’t think it would satisfy you if you’re into asian fusion food.

Best curry we’ve ever had Such interesting flavours and so delicious. I’d recommend the beef curry Mocktails were amazing, not too sweet like most, and didn’t taste like only fruit juice Staff were excellent, very thoughtful and patient, never felt rushed Location was gorgeous, we were there in time for sunset and the view was just stunning. Live music from a beautiful singer Price was brilliant for what we had, would highly recommend people coming here

During our vacation, we hadn’t planned to visit Zest, just bumped into it suddenly when we were looking for a nice place for dining in San Giljian. We were lucky to wait for a table around 10 minutes, reservation is definitely required. But this zone with a bar, cozy balcony just to wait and drink an awesome cocktail made this waiting seamless. It was March, so not such a touristic season. Atmosphere was amazing, the lady sang beautifully and relaxing. What about the food, it was the best Asian food I’ve tried all around Europe. Sushi, Pad Thai, just blew my mind. Highly recommend, hope they’ll receive a Michelin Star in the future!
