Recently tried Zesty Lemon for lunch with corn chowder and club sandwich. Both were delicious. Took my order to go & it lasted me for lunch and dinner that day. Came out to 20$ (without tip) for sandwich combo and large soup. If ordering Club, I suggest the non-breaded chicken.

Zesty Lemon is one of my favourite restaurants! I have always received wonderful customer service and the food is delicious! I absolutely love the Wicked Thai Soup and every year I can’t wait for the festive sandwich to come out! Check it out!

Zesty Lemon is amazing. I love everything about this restaurant, the food is to die for and the staff and service are second to none. I have loved everything I have tried at this restaurant, look forward to eating there regularly and have never been disappointed. This is my go-to restaurant!

Decent atmosphere, kind staff but limited options/knowledge/practices to support anyone with any kind of an allergy. If you are allergy-free, it looks like there are a lot of yummy options. A lot is "brought in" from speaking to the manager, which I guess is why almost 100% of everything they sell contains gluten. Unfortunate as I love supporting local small cafes/restaurants like this both personally and when I order for large meetings for my staff.

Excellent food and excellent service. Had a BLT with chicken Thai soup as well as a chicken club. All was excellent. Even ordered a piece of carrot cake after the meal and it was perfect as well. Highly recommend.

I’m sorry but breakfast bowl for 7$ is a joke. The poorest thing I’ve ever gotten. Egg had some black burned particles that ruined the taste of this “meal”. Better to stay home and have bread with butter and salt than this thing. Lemonade tasted fake, expected something more from a place that has a lemon on their logo. Cookie was fine.
