About Pesto Restaurants

Pesto was created in 2006 by owners Neil Gatt & Sara Gatt. They have been involved in hospitality since their teens building their careers around the casual dining sector.

“We want to deliver great quality freshly cooked food at sensible prices in an informal, relaxed atmosphere as we personally don’t like the feeling of being ‘ripped off’ in restaurants,” Says Neil

Pesto evolved from Neil and Sara’s love for Italian food, but just not in traditionally large portions.

Our Pesto motto is “to give all of our customers great food and service in an informal, relaxed atmosphere”
