Well, dont go into the bathroom if you want to keep your appetite intact. It was so filthy, like the floors/walls/door/sink area not been cleaned in weeks. Lots of questionable greasy goo underfoot in there and in the restaurant itself. Dropped a nickel while paying, and that exceptionally nasty floor made me not even want to pick up the coin. We came in for milkshakes only, service was slow mid day even though we were the only customers at the moment & the 2 teen guys on staff were more interested in the girls who were there to see them than in us or the customers that followed. Only 1 knew how to use the shake machine, and he didnt care if your cup was dripping milkshake. Very halfass prep as evidenced by lumps & streaks of peanut butter not even blended in the shake, and my chocolate malt that tasted like neither malt nor chocolate. Really weird and not worth $5 when Wendys is better. The place has history, cool retro decor, and could be a gem, but instead is just dirty, run-down, and staffed by kids who could care less. Unfortunate.
Had the taste for a Chubby Decker and thought I would try this location again since my last visit (see previous review). Big mistake, I’ll never go to this location again. Ice cream machine was down and they literally just gave me meat and bread (sandwich bread at that). This location has went all the way down 👎🏾
Very small portions may be fine for some. Extremely busy street and folks walking that neighborhood make it less comfortable place to pop in.
We enjoyed hot dogs, hamburgers, and chicken sandwiches, along with french fries and ice cream. It was great. We enjoyed dining on the outdoor patio.
Chicken was cooked really well, like I like it. Gyro was ok but it could use some kind of topping with it. The banana slit was awesome sauce. And Im a diabetic.
Server Mariana was the sole person handling patron intake (8 others with me, #61 on 8/26) coordinating deliveries to us and handling questions, along with extra requests. She did a superb job. My wife and I will definitely be back, again. Thank you Mariana!
I dont know why they call this Buckhead sisters but it is Lambert systems been there for many years but kids a little bit farther up but excellent place has gotten better especially when Krogers next to it it upgraded itself I suggest you order first before going if its a busy day around 12:00 to 1:00 but other than that easy to going
Ya cant go wrong here. The malts, the burgers, and the fries are all very good. My go-to spot for a quick fill up.
How to describe Zesto. Its great if you know what you are getting into. This place is not glamorous, but if you just want that late night, cheap frozen yogurt stuffed with toppings this is the stop. Dont expect a warm greeting or the most polished clientele, you came here for ice cream and thats what you are getting.You can get an arctic swirl (blizzard) absolutely filled with candy/chocolate and be out the door for under $5.They have a menu thats not ice cream, but I havent been brave enough to try it.
Overall food was good. Turkey burger was half the size that it originally was. It was called a Mediterranean turkey burger and it was famous here in Atlanta. Overall it tastes good. Fries were good.
Ive been going to this place for a while. Always satisfied with my order. HOWEVER, everything has changed! I made a purchase a few days ago. Got back home to realize my food was under cooked. I wasnt able to make it back to the location so I took a picture and saved the receipt. I returned with this information. The limited staff said it was nothing they could do. So I requested them to call the manager. I was told no one had his number. So I called the Little Five Points location and transferred to the manager. I explained the issue to him and he said it was nothing he could do because I dont have the food with me. I have been to this place way too many times to be running a con game. There is a such thing as customer service. So anyone who read this please make sure you check that your food is done. This is the second time it happened to me by the same cook. I figured since they lady told her before how to properly cook the food she would have learned. I was wrong and she was the same person telling me it was nothing she could do. Speaking to the manager was a waste of time. This was a small issue but the way I was treated was really upsetting. You have lost a loyal customer. I have referred many people to this location. NEVER AGAIN!
Needs better communication skills especially when handling customers, no customer should have to wait 20 minutes or more for anything! Please Guys do better especially if you want your business to grow!
Excellent Fresh Hot food. But a little upset in recent menu changes. Guess they are doing away with the Mexican food.
Great spot for lunch. Wide variety of menu options, the food here is really good and fast for lunch.
I love eating at this place they got the best lemon pepper wings in town everybody else make them too salty keep up the good job
Lady got my entire order wrong. But the customer service was good. I guess you win some and you lose some.
Food was made to order. Good but unremarkable. Service was quick and friendly. Good place to stop for a quick snack
Great food, been one of my favorite since my childhood
Out of a lot of the menued items. I guess most of their items are on the ships circling!
Zesto was great... I bought nachos there n it was really awesome goodness the place was clean n a 80s style of look kinda like dennys.. anyways I like the place alot.. employees were friendly. They got a 5star from me....
Covid spacing so can eat inside. Great 80s music. Super hot fries but 1/4 cold steak burger. Fountain sodas there are crisp & refreshing the way a soda should be.
Yummy great ice cream and fried chicken.
My guilty pleasure. Footlong chili dog and slip down to the QT for a beer to wash it down
Glad they were open on mothers day to sit in. Seem to have great portions in our order. Ice cream banana split with maple walnuts, chicken dinner, chilli cheese fries. Enough to share. Cant say am excited about prices or cleanliness, but they did adhere to covid rules. We will probably return.
Extremely delicious malts and arctic swirls! I have had toffee coffee and snickers artic swirls, and the butterscotch malt and resist my best not to stop by every other day to get one! The swirls are thick and creamy and absolute favorites! Cant recommend enough...
I am a fan of Zestos wings. Yeah they might be a bit pricey. But its a treat. This location is always clean and focused on the customers when I come in. I have been to other restaurants and they can at times be focused on everything except the customer.
Fast courteous service...tasty well cooked food..
Zestos is an Atlanta Institution. They have daily specials. The food is very inexpensive and good quality. The ice cream treats are absolutely wonderful. Try butterscotch malt Shake for example. The staff is fun and they dont request tips but we always enjoy tipping them. Youre inside and ice cream parlor from the Happy Times of America
Zestos reminds me of those old timey burgers joints from my childhood. They are so good. Truly an Atlanta institution that I take Out-of-Towners to all the time. The Chubby Decker is their lead item, and it never fails. The onion rings hold up well for take out. And the shakes are real. Burger joints come and go, and through it all Zestos has been there. That says it all.
The food is nasty plain and dry to me. But customer service was nice.
ZESTO ALWAYS ON POINT I LOVE THE CHICKEN NACHOS ND THE FOOTLONG GREAT SHAKES AND ALWAYS GREAT COSTUMER SERVICE❤
Excellent bacon cheeseburger the bacon was actual bacon and it was crispy was fantastic definitely recommend
This place wasnt all that great. The service was okay. But Zestos is basically a McDonalds and Sonic mashed together. If you have been trying to be even a little bit healthy, then this place will make you sick. As someone who is just visiting Atlanta, this is not somewhere you have to go, as there are much better places.
The butterscotch dipped cone is da bomb!
Service here is MUCH MUCH better than the Little 5 Points location! Food was good too.
I ordered the chicken wings and fries. And literally got my first food poisoning. Not a good feeling at all.
Nothing better than a Nana Nilla shake!!
Absoluty horrible to deliver for the staff was rude and i had to wait for 45 mins for the order i jave to deliver i probably lost 40 dollars or so waiting on the order
Great place for burgers and ice cream!
The Crew on there where on point!The Best Banana Split in ATL and Soft cone Ice Cream was a delight. Theres alot of competition in ATL, and Ive tried them All. But something about simplicity and service that cant be beat. The portions and flavors are so dogone Great!!
Dont Eat Here Badly Customer Service
Umm they had a lady in there just coughing and didnt kick them out
Its smells like old meat in the location which was surprising. The service was not very good at all. There was lots of activity with the same set of gloves. My order was completely wrong when I got back to my office. So Ill wait to go back there in a couple of months.
The food and ice cream was very good
Very slow and food was not any where close to what we expected from Zestos. Very disappointed
Reminds me of Nu-ways in Macon Georgia..Double cheese hamburger with chili!!👌
Food had good flavor. Employees were nice. Seemed s little pricey though.
Zestos has been my favorite wing place for years. I called to see if they were open a lady answered and laughed and slammed the phone down. I took a chance and drove over. They were open but the lady appeared not happy to be there. I asked for ranch wings, she said she has never heard of them, they are on the menu. I inquired and she stated she had no idea why they were on the menu but people keep asking for them??? I ordered other flavors of wings but they were dry and overcooked. I went to get a refill and she just stared at me then asked what do you want. I asked for a refill and she sighed but did give me one. Their was a lady in line behind me trying to order an ice cream cone she told here they dont sell that DUE TO COVID-19.
The absolute best place to eat!
Good food for the value and a nice variety of options.
Best hotdog ever.
Comfort and nostalgia go hand In hand here food is awesome
I normally enjoy the tacos, but on my recent visit... not so much. I looked to see if there was something different about the contents and there lie a long stand of hair along the sour creme and cheese. YUCK!
Super good food, music and environment.
Very good. The wings and burrito were classic. Would go again.
Food was good, very well priced.
That nut brown cow is DELISH! There is not s Zestos in my area but I dont mind drinking for this sundae!!
They have the best burgers
Horrible the nachos were like water water from beans water on lettuce grease from meet they didnt even try in the back this was disgusting!!!!
The ice cream was great. Service was slow as they appeared to be short staffed.
Not sure why today was my 1st time visiting Zestos & not sure why it doesnt get more attention than it does🤷🏾♀️. Looking forward to a return visit! 😀
Staff always friendly and make sure food is made to order. Great service everytime.
Love the lemon pepper wings!
Tortilla chips on nachos are terrible bad
Amazing food and large portions
If you want greesy old fashioned food, and a milkshake like youd find in American graffiti. This is your place. I first found it in 1985 and stop by on rare occasion.
Ive been coming here for years. The menu is large enough to give good variety. I love the chicken taco salad, and the milkshakes are always a personal treat! Staff is always friendly and service is fast and accurate as well! Give it a try.
Always a good cheap place to eat in Atlanta.
I enjoyed my first visit in decades but the brown crown is different. It used to get hard on the ourside. Now its just like chocolate syrup.
The customer service was great! The food was cold and not fresh.
My Chubbie decker was hot and fresh. The only thing I didnt care for was the big buffalo wings. The staff wasnt that friendly our order came out correct tho thumbs up
Been dining here for over a decade. Always been good daytime or late nite! Highly recommend it 💥
I love Zestos .... It was great .. Always go to this one
Ok food. Hotdog tastes more boiled than grilled and the chili on the dog is just crumpled hamburger.
Chubby Decker, foot long chili slaw dog, and a bluberry shake. Cant beat it!!!
Very good food me and my family went there for lunch today and very thing was good
I got the fish taco with slaw and this time I wasnt happy.. slaw was like soup.. they very nicely made me a new one with lettuce.
Awesome food. Movie fled filmed here along with others
25-30 years ago. I was all about the hot wings.. today Im in love with soft ice cream. This is my guilty pleasure place. I know many others feel the same if not down right addicted to some items. Still people pull up to get classic American yummy.
Best ice-cream in town
Cannot beat a Chubby Decker.
The foot long basket is always outstanding. I have been supporting thus location since the 70s. A Atlanta landmark.
Food was good but dining room was not clean. Friendly staff
I was really disappointed with my visit today. My ice cream was the sloppiest mess, I waited at least 20 minutes for my food, and the order was incorrect when I finally got the food. Which I didnt discover until I was already home. The people working there were nice enough and most of them wore their masks correctly for the most part.
Open late. Nice folks. Food is good. Eh. Still comforting.
Chicken and fries absolutely zero seasoning...flavorless
False appetizing
Weve only ever had the ice cream cones so I cant speak on the rest of the menu. As far as traditional, no frills ice cream goes this place is the best.Im also always shocked by the cleanliness of this location. It is one of the cleanest restaurants Ive seen. Ive never seen a scrap of food on the floor or dust on the window sills, which is very common even at higher end restaurants.Kudos to management!
Omg my first time ever here and it was great! I got the party melt and added a second patty because I thought it was small. Boy was I wrong!! I only ate half because I was full. I cant wait to visit again
