Vesta Rooftop Kitchen @ La Zingara

Good food, super friendly server/bartender, he was the only one on so it was slow service, forgot drinks but food was good. Calm atmosphere, decent music. Def recommend

Really pleasant surprise. Food was really, really good. Brunch, 3 courses, each course was fantastic! Cool spot, super nice staff. Really looking forward to going again.

Vesta Rooftop Kitchen is one of those places that continues to impress me every time I visit. I’m always amazed by how good the food is. Everything I’ve tried has been delicious, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared.

One of the things I really enjoy about Vesta is the rooftop setting. It has a great atmosphere and gives the space a fun, relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for brunch or a casual outing with friends. The rooftop area feels lively and unique, especially during nice weather.

Their brunch menu is excellent and offers a great variety of options. Whether you’re in the mood for something savory or something a little sweeter, there are plenty of great choices. It’s definitely a spot I look forward to visiting when I’m craving a good brunch.

The staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Service is attentive and the team always makes you feel comfortable.

Overall, Vesta Rooftop Kitchen is a great place for delicious food, a great brunch menu, and a fun rooftop atmosphere. I always enjoy coming back.

Vesta was wonderful! I came with a couple friends for Sunday brunch and I will definitely be back to try dinner sometime. The restaurant is lovely with such a cute atmosphere. My biggest gripe is that it was a little hard to find the entrance, I actually went through La Zingara but thankfully the bartender there sent me the right way.
The restaurant is small but very cozy and clean looking.
The brunch is pre fixe and I ordered a Bellini and later tried their passionfruit rooftop seltzer. Both drinks were huge! The seltzer in particular was really nice and I would like to try the other flavors. For starters, my friends had the salad while I opted for the soup of the day (corn chowder). They were all very nice.

For our mains, I went with the chicken and waffles, while my friends ordered the sweet potato skillet and the breakfast pizza (minus the sausage). Everything looked fantastic! The only hiccup was that the pizza came out a bit undercooked, but our waitress was super accommodating and happily brought it back a few minutes later — the second time, it was perfect. The chicken and waffles were amazing! It had a good sized piece of boneless breast with a nice crunchy well seasoned crust sandwiched between two waffles with this wonderful bacon jam. The waffles on their own were very sweet, almost like they were crusted with sugar. But when eaten together with the chicken and bacon jam it was perfect. My friends also loved their dishes. The breakfast pizza was huge (she took half home!) and the crust was great, while the sweet potato skillet was hearty and flavorful.
The only weak spot of the meal was the dessert course. I had the Nutella crepe, and my friend had the chocolate gelato (the only other option was vanilla; no sorbet that day). The crepe was very disappointing. It was small, cold, and didn’t taste fresh. It just felt thrown together and barely had any nutella. The gelato was better, though I thought it was a bit icy in texture.

Overall, I really loved the vibe here and thought the food was great. It’s a charming little spot that would make a wonderful date or special occasion restaurant. I’m already looking forward to coming back for dinner sometime!

Do not book large parties or brunches here. They will mess up your bill. This place owes me 100$ and probably more. I’ve contacted them more than 3 or 4 times and they never planned a refund. The service and food were mid. The rooftop is either too hot or too cold. Servers leave bottomless glasses empty have the time. Bartender gets drunk and messes up the bill and will not issue any sort of refund. It’s been weeks.

Save your time and your money. This place is awful.

We were seated right next to the kitchen, it was hot, and the smell was so overwhelming that it clung to my clothes. I’ll have to get my dress and jacket dry-cleaned after this.

The food was underwhelming and overpriced. The “salad” was nothing more than lettuce with two tiny tomatoes. The avocado smash was inedible, honestly shocking that someone could mess up avocado toast.

We ordered mimosas, and they were served warm. We actually had to put ice in them. My friend ordered a sangria, which arrived with a bug in it. Instead of replacing it promptly, the server launched into a long explanation of why their sangria has bugs in it.

To make matters worse, the server’s attitude was terrible—dismissive, with snarky remarks when we voiced fair concerns.

Overall: bad food, bad drinks, bad service. Save yourself the disappointment and go anywhere else.

I waited over 1 hour for a burger. It had chewy bits in it. The bacon jam had an unpleasant taste. The french fries were soggy and cold from sitting for so long. The staff took forever to check on the food saying it was not ready. Only when I proceeded to say I had been waiting for over an hour they checked the food and came out with it luke warm. The service was not good. Maybe you will have a better experience dining in, but do not order take out. I dine all over in Bethel and surrounding areas, and there are better restaurants available.

My group came for a Saturday brunch and while the food was delicious the service was terrible. There were two waiters working, one was his second day so I’ll give him a break but the second one who has apparently been there a lot longer was so rude to us and seem to have no interest in even working. Will not be dining here again due to the nonexistent customer service.

Went here for brunch with some friends and ate at the rooftop. It was slow when we arrived because we ate at an off time but that made it better because it was such a nice atmosphere to chat and relax. By far some of the best things I’ve ever eaten. It was $27 for an appetizer, main course, and dessert which I thought was a great price. You won’t be leaving here hungry! I would definitely come here again.
