About this experience partner:

Zest is founded by Luciana Gencarelli. Her passion for food stems from her Italian roots - making mass amounts of jarred tomato sauce each August and gallons of wine each September.

Her entrepreneurial spirit was apparent at a young age, too! The basis for zest roots from all the holistic powers food has in generating energy and preventing disease. 

Her goal is to create delicious and nutritious meals, snacks, and desserts that are free of gluten and dairy and FULL of taste for everyone to enjoy and feel great doing so.

First time here, kept driving by On my way to work. I really recommend this place to anyone trying to eat cleaner yet not lose so much taste on food. The atmosphere was great & workers were very welcoming. I usually dont leave reviews but i cant stress how good this was , i am gladly coming back. I also got banana walnut bread which was tasty as well.

I love this place! I’ve visited it about 10 times. They never disappoint me. I can honestly say that I got a healthy delicious meal/treat each time! My favorite is the energize juice & a sweet potato brownie. Thank you! :)

(HOLY MOLY) - I just want to thank you for making AMAZING food for my daughter's first birthday party today! Everybody could not stop talking about how fantastic the food was. My family always busts on us for throwing all vegan parties so we have a pretty tough crowd and they LOVED your food! You will absolutely be getting another catering order from us in August for my older daughter's third birthday and many more after that. You bet I will be telling everyone I know to order from you guys! Zest is AMAZING!!!! THANK YOU!
