tiny portions, but beautiful restaurant - Edit
this place has a really massive menu, amazing for vegans.
Read moreyou can even choose cacao by strength, according to your taste buds.
BUT portions are reallllly tiny, and in my opinion not worth the money for what is considered an expensive restaurant in Ubud. Locals wouldn't be able to afford to eat here.
the decor and location are wonderful, though.
Pros: Decor/ambiance, friendly staff
Cons: Portions are too small

Zest May 2025 - Edit
Definitely worth the visit, great vibe and complete vegan menu which I feel was resonanbly priced. I had pizza and jackfruit ribs. My partner had a burger all was really good. The showstopper for me was the array of deserts which were amazing
Read morePros: Large selection of deserts, Good vibe
Cons: Bit out of the way

Perfect for date night - Edit
Booked a table at Zest for a fancier dinner while we were in Ubud and it did not disappoint.
Read moreThe crushed & crispy baby potatoes are some of the best I've ever had, crunchy and perfectly matched with the chipotle mayo. The raw lasagne was a huge portion of creamy cashew and tangy tomato sauces layered with fresh vegetables, my partner's vegan schnitzel was just as good.
The ceremonial cacao was rich and we loved that you could customise it with various additional flavouring and cream options. Dessert was also a winner, with the tiramisu being the stand out - we fought over the last pieces.
It is quite a busy place, so would strongly recommend booking to ensure you get a table, and while I loved the "shoes off" vibe, my partner wasn't as convinced. It is also on the pricier side of your food options in Ubud, so would save it for a special occasion or when you're looking to be less casual.

Get the Savoury Seaweed Waffles - Edit
Zest Ubud is set on a mountain and has excellent views. There is a very unique aesthetic that this place has when you walk into it, with trees growing inside as well interesting statues along the walls. When I came in the morning, it was very busy, maybe 70% occupied, so it seems to be very popular. I highly recommend the savoury seaweed waffles here which were spectacular. I have never seen a seaweed waffle before so was curious to try it, and it was really good.

Great flavours but some uncooked food - Edit
Great views and had a traditional Balinese feel about the place.
Read moreThe food had great flavours however some parts were cold/uncooked was a shame.
A slight gripe is that there are a lot of “traveller Vibes” people who were sat on tables - which is not where you then want to eat food from.
Beware though, the cheese balls come with mayonnaise all over the plate and this is not mentioned on the menu.

Amazing atmosphere - Edit
Creative options here, i had the plant steak with gravy/ cheese balls and another time had one of the salads. Both really delicious. Deserts look fun as well but full from the main courses both times! View and atmosphere is gorgeous.

Decent food, really good service - Edit
Overall it was pretty good, but some stuff could be better. The mash was cold and the sauce for the ribs wasn't to our taste, but the cauli wings were nice and the lava cake was really good.
Read moreWe enjoyed it but I wouldn't rave about it, we probably preferred the food at other vegan restaurants close by.
The vibe wasn't really our thing, felt a bit pretentious and a bit more of a showy "look how vegan I am" type crowd, but that alone wouldn't put me off going there.

If you want to go for a pretty setting, this is one to try.
