About Us

Picture
Zesty’s, located in Manayunk, opened in the fall of 1993. In less than a year, with the help of Roxborough Manayunk Bank, Zesty’s expanded next door to double its size. Our bistro is designed for quiet dining and features a bright, open kitchen.

Zesty's restaurant is located in Manayunk. Named a National Historic District in 1983, Manayunk is centrally located, along the Schuylkill River, to Center City, the Main Line as well as the entire Delaware Valley. With over 65 chic boutiques and galleries and about 30 restaurants, Manayunk is a world unto itself. It is these demographics, along with unique shopping and dining experiences that have helped Manayunk consistently draw crowds of great numbers.

Manayunk received its name from the Lenape Indian word “manaiung”, meaning, where we go to drink.” The availability of water with the completion of the Manayunk Canal drew people to the area. It provided power for the construction of textile and paper mills and provided the transportation link to the port of Philadelphia and inland to the farmlands of Pennsylvania.

Born in Lefkas, a southern island located between Greece and Italy, Tom combines the best of both regions culinary styles. This "Greco-Roman" theme creates a unique and delightful Mediterranean feast for the senses.

​Tom Konidaris, who operated Onassis, a Greek restaurant at 17th and Sansom Streets that drew crowds for both dining and dancing in the late 1970s and early '80s. Zesty, much like Onassis, is, well, pretty zesty.

"We declare that there is no greater fulfillment of delight than when joy possesses a whole people and banqeters in the halls listen to a minstrel as they sit in order due and by them tables are laden with bread and meat, and the cup bearer draws white wine from the bowl and pours it into the cups. This seems to our mind the fairest thing there is."

Athanassios "Tom" and Shelley Konidaris
