We know how tough it can be to eat out with little ones. Patch wants to help you know before you walk in the door if Zesty's is a good place to eat with your children.

Restaurant: Zesty's

Is there a kids’ menu? No but entrees can be made in smaller versions to be more kid-friendly. Kids may enjoy the pasta dishes, roasted chicken, pizzas and desserts.

Are there healthy options on the kids’ meal? The salads, pasta dishes and roasted chicken are fairly healthy.

How does the restaurant deal with food allergies? Alert the staff and they will accommodate you as best they can. Everything is made to order so the kitchen is quite accommodating.

Is there a diaper changing station? No.

How difficult is it to maneuver a stroller through the dining area? Not that difficult.

Is the restaurant so quiet that any childish outburst will draw attention or is there enough noise that a small cry is likely to go unnoticed? Depends on how filled the dining room is.

For the Meet the Chef/Owner of Zesty's, check back with Roxborough-Manayunk Patch on Thursday.
