ZZest Cafe & Bar - Rochester

We ate on veranda atmosphere was nice had to somewhat dodge the bugs but that would be expected had the special with wine pairing love the food the wine pairing was ok not great. Overall a nice experience would definitely recommend. However choose you own wine

We enjoyed our first visit to Zzest. The food was delicious. The interior was quirky and fun. The evening was marred by two things: terrible music and mediocre service. Our server brought our salad before we finished our appetizer and brought our entrees while both appetizer and salad were on our (very tiny) table. The service was so rushed that there wasn't even an opportunity to order a second drink and the place was half empty. We will be back.

Absolutely love it every time we visit! Creative and tasty menu that changes often, great staff, wonderful vibe.

I can only hope that Leanne, Justin and crew recreate a Zzesty atmosphere in The Cellar when it fully opens this Fall losing this unique restaurant is a huge hit to Rochester's attempt to climb above Appleby's.

Excellent food; patio is a treasure; service was sketchy no ice in water glasses and when asked for ice, it was about 15 minutes before he arrived with a glass with cubes in it then found a container and brought us more ice. Wait staff seemed to be a little thin on a perfectly lovely evening.
