Gusto Review - Zeppi's Restaurant

On a weekday when I was off work, I visited my sister and her 3 week old lovely baby boy! We went for a short walk along the St. Julians promenade.. and around 11.30am, we got hungry! Out came Gusto... and Zeppi's Restaurant it was :)

The location: Tucked away in Balluta Bay St. Julians, overlooking the little public garden opposite the Bay. If you don't look hard enough, you might miss it.. so look carefully :) Free parking on the street is a major hassle on weekends, though the pay-per-use carpark of the Le Meridien hotel is a stone's throw away.

The place: Small and unassuming decor, with three tables on the ground floor, by the kitchen. More seating available upstairs, and tables are available al fresco in the public garden if the weather is right.


The menu: Includes everything you would expect to find including sandwiches and baguettes, pizza, pasta and meats. We had garlic bread with cheese for starters, rib eye steaks for mains, and Sacher torte and apple pie for dessert :) Yummy!

The staff: Impressive! Firstly, we were allowed to enter the restaurant 30 minutes before their opening time because being December, it had started to rain! We appreciated the consideration loads! Secondly, they were extremely helpful by making space at the table for our little angel in his huge baby cot! They were also polite, courteous and timely throughout our lunch :)

Gusto: Got 50% off our lunch for two.. and saved a total of 23 euro! They accepted Gusto right away, even though we did not call before or make a reservation.

P's recommendation: For fantastic considerate service, Zeppi's Restaurant is the place to go! :) The food is good and well portioned. Parking not a hassle if you don't mind parking 15 minutes away and walking, or if you don't mind paying a few extra euros for a pay-per-use carpark. And you can save 50% off your food bill for 2, by getting your Gusto Card here :)
