Grew up in East Point. Ate there all the time and just about everyone in my family worked there including myself. I miss that one since it was sold and the name changed. Still has awesome country fried steak with fries and loads of gravy.
'chele
Bar None. The Best Turkey Burger I have ever eaten.
Wanahton
Friendly people, great food at a reasonable price, what more can you ask for...
Bunny Scoggins, Sure Lock Self Storage
The ladies at the Tyrone,Ga location are the best. I eat here twice a week and on Thursday, I can walk thu the door and they know what I want and it always fixed just right. My hats off to all that work there.

We used to have a Zesto in Bettendorf Iowa back in the fifties. We went there every Sunday after church and any other time we could talk our folks into it. I would give anything to have a store in our town again!!
Good Time Charlie
I was raised in Natchitoches(Nakatish)La. and we had a Zesto fron the 1950s until the early 1970s
and I have been craving the taste ever since.I will have to stop in Atlanta and see if it is still as good as I remember.

The 1st meal I ate when I moved to Atlanta in '67 was a Zesto hotdog basket. Zesto was our after school,evening and weekend hangout in the early to mid 70's. The Piedmont rd location use to have a jukebox. I would bet that I have had 100's of ice cream cones and 100's of hotdogs from there down through the years. I miss those days.

Way to keep tradition alive! If youre ever in Omaha,NE stop by the N 30th street location. Best in town! ~Owner & Operator

I grew up in Decatur. While I'm a fan of the Varsity, the foot long chili dog with slaw and onions is my favorite hot dog. We used to get 4 on a special for under $2.00 years ago. A foot long and a strawberry shake can't be beat!
Aria M.
I love love love Zesto's soft serve...twist perferrably! You just can't get anything better than this stuff, people!
Maggie Crews
I lived in Marosgo Apartments just behind Zesto on Piedmont Road, in 1957 and 1958. I was pregnant and craved Hot Fudge Sundays. I would walk there and order a Hot Fudge Sunday with lots of hot fudge and no whipped cream. They would make it for me, I assumed it was because I was pregnant. But I really enjoyed it. I can still taste it now and I'm 70 years old. Thanks Zesto
Aaron
Very fantastic hotdogs - awesome chili
Carlos R
Your wings are awesome!!! I love the honey bbq ones the best though.
Betty
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!LOVE ZESTO'S WISH THERE WAS ONE IN MCDONOUGH, GA. UNTIL THEN I'LL CONTINUE TO GO ON FRIDAYS TO MORELAND & CONFERDERATE. GREAT PLACE AWESOME FOOD!
BES
Just wish there was a Zestos in Conyers area...when I was lil we ate at the one that was on Glenwood was the bomb
janis
Have'nt eaten at Zesto's since I was a kid in the 60's. Forgotten all about them ,till I was in Atlanta and saw one. Had lunch with my family who had never heard of Zesto's. If was great! Can't wait to get back to Atlanta amd eat there again..
lil Lincoln sunshine
Zesto is and has always been my favorite ice cream. My older sister worked for the "queen" and even when that was free I still wouldn't want it the same way I wanted zesto.
A. Thompson
I loved Zestos; Okay, I must confess it's been a while since I have been and I have moved to Covington and there is not one in my area, but back in the day I would go the the one on Candler Rd. I loved all the food, but I so loved the coffee milkshake; there was nothing like it. Like heaven on earth.
stoney & Lola the Bird
Delores, Manager at the L5P location is the BEST! 31 years and still putting out the best burger and onion rings in the city. I adore her staff, and when I need my fix they hook ya up quick! Thanks l5p Zesto crew, and thank you Delores! Tell your boss to give you a big raise, you deserve it!!!!!!
Grease Monkey
Hot Wings at Zesto r da bomb!
Suzy
I have been going to the Zesto in Forest Park since I was a little girl, I'm happy to say it's one of the few places that is as good now as it was then!!!
Anna from Indiana
Zestos rocks. I first had Zestos in South Carolina in 1984. Then, I moved to Fort Wayne, IN and was so happy to have 2 Zestos locations here. Now - my brother lives in Little 5 pointes in Atlanta and there is a Zestos there. Everywhere of importance to me, there is a Zestos. And good thing. Zestos is the BEST. Try a Razzle Chocolate ice cream with Black Raspberry. It is similar in taste to a famous chocolateur flavor here in Fort Wayne - DeBrands Chocolate. Check it out if you like that flavor. But most of the time I just get plain ol'vanilla. Yes, Indiana knows good food too. Especially Zestos.
Jamie
Ate there in Forest Park since I was little moved to Gainesville but still have to make the journey twice a year for a footlong the best onion rings in the world and a peach shake wow!
Vickie
I sure do miss those burgers and chicken snacks.
Grew up around the one on piedmont road. Also worked there 1981/82. What a great place. Good
people. The one on ponce de leon is very satisfying. Service good. It would be great to see one in smyrna georgia
Seth
The food at Zesto is great. I ate at the one in Atlanta. Very good food. I also work at Zesto in West Columbia, S.C.
Drummergurl
The food was AWESOME! The best burger I've ever had. You guys beat out Five Guys hands down. Oh, and the onion rings... they were the BOMB!!! My daughter said that the ice cream was like fluffy marshmallows in her mouth. Can you tell we really enjoyed the food?
Matt
I moved to Atlanta in 2005 down off Highland Ave in VA Highlands with my wonderful girlfriend Katie. Passed up Zesto many, many times opting for other joints. We were on our way home from a night out early morning and finally decided to stop. Boy were we glad we did. Excellent chicken nachos with black beans. Now were addicts!
winston
i used to live next to the zesto on moreland & east confederate.
in addition to the food, i sure miss that cute brunette. sigh. you broke a lot of hearts, sweetie!
Nate
Zestos i awesome! I've never been here but I've been to the one in Scottsbluff, Nebraska and it is awesome! I wish i could go to Zestos everyday, my dad says it's been around since before he was born and it's never lost it's friendly environment and good service! GO ZESTOS.
Tina
Zesto's Moreland/Confederate has a killer menu. Their Barbeque Sandwich and fried okra can't be beat. Not to mention the fried chicken.......
Tina
You don't get any better food than the Zesto's at Moreland and Confederate. Jimmy and his team rock! They always put out great, high quality food and nothing has changed in the 38 years I have been going there.
Super Gator
Diners, Dive-in's and Dives needs to stop by Zesto... What a great experience, every single time... Forest Park is where I frequent most and the staff is always on top of things... Great food... Great Service... Order anything, you'll be pleased... !
steve m
The brown crowns are probably the best ice cream in atlanta. I have at least one a week!!!
cy
The Big Juan is wicked good. Do not bring Zesto to Marietta (I do not need the temptation).
Greg
I -love- going to the Piedmont Rd Zestos, not only because of the tasty food, but because they have the cutest latino boys working there!
Ray
I started going to Zestos on Piedmont Rd. when I moved to Atlanta in 1967. After I joined the service in 1971, I would go by there every time I came home on leave. After my discharge I continued going there regularly until I moved to Memphis in 1986. Too bad Memphis didn't have one.
Booty
Forget the Varsity, Zesto's has the best hot dogs in the ATL. Too bad I don't live close to a Zesto. But when I'm in the hood I always drop by!
Kelly
The ice cream was the best I have ever had in my life!!!!
wanahton
A treat to take a drive and enjoy the great ice cream. The onion rings aren't too shabby neither..
GilM
There was a Z at North Decatur and Clairmont back in the late 50s and 60s (maybe later). It's great to know you're still around.
Ruby Tuesday
I have been eating at Zesto's for 30 years. (I have the belly and two chins to prove it!)You can't get a better footlong anywhere in GA. It is worth the drive from anywhere.
Ulver
Born and raised a southside Atlanta boy. Lot's of Zesto memories. Glad they are still around. For my money, the footlong all-the-way, is always a best bet. Overall, I think the dogs, burgers, and sides, seriously kick The Varsity's butt!
Brady
During the early 60s when I was at Ga.Tech I always walked to a place called "The Yellow Jacket" for the best hot dogs I had ever eaten. And now with no more Yellow Jacket I have found the exactt great tasting toasted hot dog right at Zesto. Cannot get my fill of them. In fact I now live in Columbus Ga. and any trip to Atlanta I stock up with 20 or 30 Zesto chili dogs to store in the freezer and enjoy them for several weeks.And then have to think up an excuse to go buy more.
GO ZESTO !!!
Melvin B
Zesto's is a childhood memory from the 60's growing up in Atlanta. Every Wednesday my dad would buy the box of 6 burgers. Occasionally, when I had money, I would ride my bike to Zesto's just to get something. I was just asking a friend today if Zesto's was still around. Can't wait to come back to Atlanta so I can go to Zesto's.
Steve O
BEST NACHOS I EVER HAD!
falin
Good chicken and banana splits
Phoot
I ate my first hamburger at Zestos. Zestos is the best ever! Viva la Chubby Decker.

Growing up in Atlanta during the 50s the best hot dogs were at the Yellow jacket, the yELLOW jACKET HAS LONG BEEN GONE. bUT THE zESTO CHILI DOG IS EVERY BIT WHAT I REMEMBER THE yELLOW jAcket hot dogs to be. GREAT !!
Monica
You're ice cream is AMAZING. Im so glad you guys supply REAL ice cream not that fake stuff that Micky D's and THE QUEEN have. At Zesto, your for real. I went to the QUEEN a few weeks ago and they asked me if I wanted ice dream HA! Don't make me laugh!
Riley Nesbit
Oh my God, your ice cream is the best but hey thats besides the subject what im here to talk about is how i wish you were open later cause every day i want ice cream real late. It makes me want to break stuff when i get hungry for ice cream and realize you aren't open.
JP
You all have the BEST Turkey burgers. Thanks!!
Captain Chris
Their ice cream is awesome. We say "Zesto's is Bestos!" I can say I have never had better ice cream anywhere. Keep up the good work. 6/23/07

I have been eating at Zesto twice a week for the past five years. The food is amazing! You can tell that everything is made to order and dosen't sit under heat lamps. I wish there were more Zestos in Atlanta!!!!!!!

Kirk
Zesto has the best turkey burger in town, bar none! The first time I ate one it tasted so good I was worried that it might actually be hamburger because I don't eat beef. But, to my surprise it was just a good old, flame broiled turkey patty. I recommend it with cheese, tater tots and a Heck of a Job Brownie Arctic Swirl, also the best frozen treat in town!!
joe
I feel sorry for the misguided patrons going to the McDonalds next door to the Ponce location. I want to yell at them. Zesto's rules!
Douglasville Cheer Stars
We love Zesto!! It brings us good luck for competitions! The one on Ponce is out favorite! We love the ice cream!!!
Jerome Carthan(SUBCOOK)
Being from North Decatur Zestos use to be a family treat in the Mid-70's until this very day. I live in Ewa Beach Hawaii now and wish we had a Zestos in the island of O'ahu. I think the local Hawaians would really embrace the good chow you guys make at Zestos. Mahalo
Jill
I just had the Clam Roll and it was so awesome! I also love the cole slaw.
Dixie
The corn dogs are great and so is the ice cream! The people are nice, but it just takes too long in the drive thru.
Michael
Worlds best COFFEE BANANA SHAKE! When I lived at Peachtree/W. Peachtree split, I had one every morning. Delicious.
I MISS YOU ZESTO!!!
Tom

Love it... always have. Food is cooked to order which means it's always fresh and hot. Ice cream is so refreshing and good all the time. No complaints from me. Keep it coming ZESTO, you make the south HOT.
peggy
The food there was great.Especially the footlongs,and the chubby deckers. They always have a nice personality too.

CreemPheen

(from Mr. Zesto: SORRY!)
Nut Brown Crown Clown

Will G
I live in atlanta and I love the food. The foot longs are the best i've ever had and the ice cream is great. There is one question my friend and I have and is a debate brought up lmost every day. Is the name of the resturaunt Zesto or Zestos? We really need a true answer that is factual.
(from Mr. Zesto: It's "Zesto"
Emily Tyson
Zesto - I love your corndogs! Took down almost a dozen the last time I was there!!! emily

julie young
when i was a kid in the 60's in new orleans,la. we had a zesto around the corner from my house and every evening we would all go and meet at the zesto to eat burgers,fries, banana splits and whatever else we could eat. just recently i had the opportunity to come to atlanta and visit with a good friend of mine and when she brought me to eat at the zesto on ponce de leon in atlanta, WOW, i just had a fit!!!!!! i truly remember those gooooood ole days at the zesto around the corner. PLeasssssse bring one back to new orleans, louisiana again. thanks for the memories.
Lorenzo
I have eaten at every Zesto in Atlanta except the Forest Park site. I first went to the Moreland Avenue store in the sixties!! Great food--great service--great people.
GMAC
Use to work at the East Point Location with Mike and Libby. Really great place for Food and Ice Cream. Has the best Ice Cream in the South.

justin aka jay
you know i have been eating at zestos for years now and just want to thank every one who works there. you all have made me ice cream and bugers too i just hope i will see yal forever.
Charles Ward
I fondly remember Zesto from the time I lived in Atlanta. I grew up in Louisiana and attended college in Natchitoches, LA. There was a Zestos there, same logo, and it lasted until around the mid 80's.
I was suprised moving to Atlanta and finding the same chain there.
I have always wondered how a chain in Atlanta with only 4 locations could have also have one 700 miles away. Sure wish someone had some information on that!
Barbara
Zesto's in Buckhead was our school hangout during the 60's. What memories your website brings back. Still have dreams about those yummy footlong chili dogs.
Scott
I only lived in Decatur for 1 year, but I ate at the Zesto on Ponce De Leon almost every Tuesday. They had the BEST footlongs ever. Have you considered opening a Zesto in Birmingham, AL?
tybeejake
Prices UP, portions DOWN. Very disappointed. I used to drag unbelievers to PDL for the fingers or tuna sandwich, which used to be a beautiful hunk of fish. Now it's so thin you can see through it. YOU'RE GOING DOWNHILL FAST!
(from Mr. Zesto: I'm on it!)
Kirk
I was traveling thru Atlanta and stopped in your
Zesto's in Forest Park I would like to commend your employees Donnie and Sharon that were working the front counter great job!!!!!
If I ever get back to Atlanta I will have another
footlong slaw dog 12-4-2005

The Chubby Decker and tater tots are great,shun!!

The language at the Confederate Ave. Zesto's is definitely Greek and they are good at what they do. I highly recommend them.
jourdan
I LOVE ZESTOS!!! of course i live in omaha but there are two of them here and it is soooo good! its the best ice cream in omaha : ) but yeah i love it! and their foot longs are good too. its weird how theyre red though lol.

Kevin
I use to work at Zesto in the 60's back in my hometown Mitchell South Dakota. Someone mentions Zesto I can still taste the footlongs and smell that wonderful aroma!
Vanessa
I work at a Zesto on Riverside in Evansville, In. I'm 35 & have been eating there my whole life! We have another Zesto here in town but its run by a different owner. Our owners are the best! They even give us T-shirts with Zesto on the front & the building on the back. They are so cool, everybody wants one! We have a similar menu, but I can't wait to come down & try yours. I really love your website! I had no idea there were so many Zesto's-but still not enough! I hope Zesto goes on forever!
Zesto Freak
Yeah, the language spoken at Confederate is indeed Greek. That cute brunette I was refering to is Greek, also. I think she's the owner's daughter. You've got to try the icecream.
Zesto
FOOT LONG BABY!
Steve
I remember going to the Zestos on Peachtree across from the Brookwood Train Station. I would go to the AJCC and then come get a Nut Brown Crown with butterscotch dip. Why don't you have butterscotch anymore?
Roderick
Love that old school atmosphere and the chilli dogs and fries...Great Fish fillets and brownie sundaes to boot! Nothin like stopping at Zesto's on Ponce after church on Sunday (TBC on Boulevard)
Dave Chapelle
the language at confederate is known as ebonics (Editor's note: It's actually Greek)
flame
i think the nut brown crown has some kind of drug in it..where can i get some..
Hannah Barbra
What language are those people speaking at Confederate? It doesn't sound like Spanish.
Carol
I love Zesto! Each one is unique, and they are all in the city too! Stay in town and please don't move to "metro Atlanta!" The fish sandwich is the best!
PAULINE
PLEASE OPEN A STORE IN WEST COBB.

justin aka phat

Zesto Freak
I've been eating at the Zesto on Moreland and Confederate Avenue for 6 years. The footlong slaw dogs, onion rings and NBCs are my absolute favorite. Their icecream is THE BEST, especially when the cute brunette behind the counter makes it!
Jason
Never been to this Zesto...but I have been to the one in Mitchell, South Dakota!! What a great place! I am sure they are similiar.
kelsey
I LOVE your burgers! when i went to Zesto i wanted something that was not really on the menu but they still gave it too me! Zesto rocks!
Bajah

Sleepy J
Man i tell you my sister started going to the former zesto's at the corner of candler rd. and glenwood dr. got me started. It used to be the spot. The Chubby Decker w/bacon basket w/tater tots will get you hooked trust me!! The ice cream is great as usual. Try a peach/fruit punch mix drink you'll be surprised.
John
Zesto's is great. Please expand to the northern suburbs.
Maggy
I remember back in 1968 and 69 when I was a freshman in college. I would visit my boyfriend at Tech and we would get Zesto's chicken on Sundays when we were studying in the park. I've never had any chicken since that was that good. Yum!
Elisabeth G.
When I was a little girl, I never asked for McDonalds. It was always ZESTO's!!! After all these years, I still crave a chicken snack any time of the day. I could never work there... I'd get so fat.
Randy Crist
Zesto is yummy to my tummy!
Atlanta Vampire
Some of the best times of my life was spent in the Zesto's that used to be on Piedmont...we used to live in the apartments back behind there...the good times, the bad times, when DJ died, when we'd leave The Gold Club on Saturday evening before going to work at DC's...those were the days. Now I live in San Francisco and long to just once again, have one of those big greasy burgers in my hand, sitting across from my best friends knowing that there is no place else I'd rather be. Hail Atlanta and hail Zestos!
E
I'm pretty sure the banana shake is the best thing I have ever had in my life. If we get to pick our own heaven, mine will be filled with all the Zesto banana shakes I want!
Steve W.
Best Colen clenzen I ever had!
Izzy
Chicken Gizzards ROCK! Long live the gizzard! The tastiest, best part of the chicken!

I lived in Atlanta for 12 years in the 80's and 90's. I recently moved from Baltimore to San Francisco. I have lived in some great cities and tasted some amazing food, but I still get a craving for ZESTO'S delicious hot dogs, thick shakes and onion rings. Long Live Zesto's!
