The cuisine combo at Manayunk’s new Zesty’s – Italian and Greek – seems a perfect match in light of the continuing emphasis on the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet. This attractive bistro has an open kitchen and it’s as bright as a Neapolitan folk tune and as graceful and earthy as a Greek dance. Since 1993 Zesty’s menu has given new meaning to the word Greco-Roman offering an extensive selection of Greek, Italian and Mediterranean specialties. Zesty’s Restaurant is located in Manayunk. Named a National Historic District in 1983, Manayunk is centrally located, along the Schuykill 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 “manaiunk” 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.
