Awesome location. Very cozy and relaxed. We had a great matcha, juices and a smoothie bowl. Prices are totally fine. Would come back. We also saw some people with the laptop, so might be also a good place to do some work while enjoying great coffee and food. Nice place
The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful—almost like something out of a dream. The treehouse-style setting, wooden furniture, and overall aesthetic were stunning, creating a truly unique and inviting space. On top of that, the service was excellent. However, the food didn’t quite hit the mark for me. The poke bowl wasn’t great—it almost tasted like it had tomato sauce on top, and the mix of ingredients felt a bit random. Next time, I’ll probably try one of their smoothie bowls since those seem to be a crowd favorite. I also didn’t realize before sitting down that it was a fully vegan restaurant, which is great for those who love plant-based options. Regardless of the food, it’s definitely worth a visit just for the atmosphere alone!
What a gem! Lively ambience and fantastic food! Every dish was hearty, rich in flavors and textures. The grilled jackfruit dish (on the 1st photo) was a winner of the night, truly mind-blowing Highly recommend! Will definitely come back here next time I’m in Bali
We had lunch at Zest in Ubud and it honestly felt like more than just a meal—it was an experience. The layout of the restaurant is really unique. It’s not open-air in the traditional sense, but there’s this massive, beautiful tree right in the center, and the whole space seems to grow around it. The tree adds such a grounding, peaceful vibe to the place. It’s hard to describe, but sitting there felt incredibly relaxing—like a little escape from the usual bustle. We were seated right away (lucky, maybe), but I’d suggest making a reservation if you’re planning to go—especially around lunchtime. It’s clearly a favorite for a lot of people, and I can see why. What surprised me was how long people stayed. We saw a few tables come in just before us and they were still there when we left. Honestly, if I didn’t have other plans, I think I could’ve stayed the whole afternoon and maybe even into the evening. It has that kind of slow, stay-awhile energy. The food really impressed us. Everything looked amazing and tasted just as good. It’s all plant-based, but there’s so much variety that it never felt limiting. The presentation of the dishes was stunning—really well done, very photo-friendly, but not in a gimmicky way. And the prices were super fair, especially for the quality. We ended up ordering a bunch of small plates so we could try more things, and we were glad we did. One of the best parts of the experience was our server, Manda. She was genuinely kind, easy to talk to, and had great suggestions from the menu. She struck the perfect balance between being helpful and giving us space to enjoy. All in all, Zest has a beautiful balance of thoughtful design, good food, and a peaceful atmosphere. I’d go back without hesitation.
Beautiful atmosphere, layout and settings. Good taste, good portions, the price isn’t cheap I guess worth to try for healthy food options. Always love their sushi selection. I recommend to try them. The surrounding would’ve been cleaner, the sofa, tables and covers they used. The staff are nice but the security looks always mean, little smile and greeting would be nice when you entering the space. Definitely come back again. Good luck ?
