Zest Mediterranean Cuisine 1008 Riley Street, Folsom, CA 95630

"The food was out of this world! I can't even begin to describe to you how flavorful everything was. The shawarma, the rice, hummus, EVERYTHING! The garlic sauce (toum) was the best I've ever had, I wanted to eat it by itself. I usually preferred he meat-stuffed dolma, but the vegetarian dolma served here is the only one I'll ever accept. This is truly one of the most authentic Lebanese restaurants I've ever been to in CA, like I mean it'sas if you were in actual Lebanon. Family-owned and one of the most down-to-earth, hospitable folks. Sa5tein!"

"This was our first trip here and it was an amazing experience. We came on Valentine’s Day and it was very busy, but the customer service was amazing and very attentive. The food was great and the staff was very energetic and helping all the customers and pick up orders. We ordered 2 gyro plates and the dolma it was all prepared fresh and had great flavor and a real value. We will definitely come again!"

"I was excited to try Zest’s authentic Lebanese cuisine after reading positive reviews. While the staff was friendly and the place was spotless, my experience with food was mixed. The beef kebobs were incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavors. The hummus was smooth and creamy, with a well-balanced garlic and tahini flavor. However, the Mosakaa, a dish I had never tried before, was a bit bland for my liking. Served cold, it lacked the vibrant flavors I expected. The salad and rice accompanying the kebobs were not outstanding either. Lastly and unfortunately, the overpriced plates make me hesitant to return and explore other dishes."

"We tried out this place after reading reviews about it multiple times in the local FB group. And it did live up to the great reviews. We tried their vegetarian platter, which came with falafels, dolma, tabbouleh salad, tzatziki and hummus and would recommend getting this if you're trying out the place for the first time. The falafels were hot, crisp and fluffy; the salad was very fresh and flavourful. Definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine. The service was quick and the staff/owners were friendly."
