Corned Beef Hash & Eggs
Dawn H.

Zaza is a cute diner with plenty of options. My coffee was delicious but my food was just ok. Service was good but nothing special. If you have a large group this would probably be good location because they have an extensive menu that most people will be able to find something they want.

If you're looking for diner food this spot will work for you. Their menu is super expansive and the quality is what you would expect from a diner. They had tons of seating and quick service. We had no problem getting a seat immediately for a Sunday brunch.

My husband and I planned to go to a diner before our matinee 4DX movie at Regal on 42nd Street, so we decided to look on Yelp for recommendations near his job on Wall Street. Fortunately, we found Zaza Diner just a five-minute walk away. Our first impression was very positive; the diner was modern and exceptionally clean. The hostess was friendly, and we were seated immediately--there was no waiting at all. Our server was attentive and asked us what we would like to drink, and then a second waiter came by to take our food orders. We ordered a Western egg omelet with home fries and multigrain bread. Additionally, we got a deluxe pancake order that included three pancakes, two pieces of bacon, one slice of ham, and one sausage. We also enjoyed some delicious coffee.

The place was wonderful, the staff took us in with ease and the food was very tasty! I had heard of the place and liked the reviews and must admit-- they were right . The food was fresh and the staff was very responsive to any question and always service with a smile!

Great Service! Awesome food! So fun 80's music theme! Large portions...sorry we forgot to take photos of our meals, but they were crazy big and beautiful. .

Maryland Crab Cake Benedict
Lora R.

Decent breakfast, but not exciting. I ordered the crabcake Benedict, and was happy but not thrilled. I was hungry and ate until I hit a wall and packed it to go. I was drawn to this diner based on the classic turkey club sandwich reviews, but allowed myself to get distracted by something else. The next time that I am in lower Manhattan, I will stay focused.

We have breakfast here each morning....so far I haven't been disappointed... the staff is knowledgeable & efficient.... Also convenient.... Near our hotel

Napoleon stuffed French toast

Fast and friendly service. Will definitely come again. They have an extensive menu with many choices and options. We of course couldn't take our eyes off the breakfast selections. The interior is clean and has lots of booths for the classic diner vibe and feel. See you soon Zaza! I loved my PACO.

This was a gem. We happened on this spot on our lunch hour! It was a classic diner meet modern Manhattan moment there were people from so many different walks of life at lunch, folks on lunch break, families and tourist just to name a few. The host were fantastic and were so helpful and just plain sweet. I had the grilled chicken sandwich and fries! The grilled sandwich was delicious the chicken was tender and juicy and seasoned well. The sandwich was so good I forgot to get a picture. I will definitely be back!

My partner and I came in twice to have breakfast here. Service was a little slow but it can get busy. The service was always kind tho. I ordered the Western Omelette and Banana pancakes. They were both sooo good. I would come back and try more things on the menu.

Andrew T.

Very clean place, very friendly staff, portions were good, coffee was good, the food was good.

Big Boy Breakfast
Shayna H.

A clean and beautiful ambiance with kind staff and great food. I came with a group of six and our food was brought out in a very timely manner. We all ordered off of the breakfast menu. I got the big boy breakfast. It filled me up for almost the entire day. It came with all the breakfast meats, three eggs, home fries, and toast. The star of the plate was the home fries. They were seasoned to perfection. Some of my friends were picking them off of my plate because none of us could get enough of them! I would highly recommend Zaza to others.

Super popular for a reason, but oh so very difficult to get a reservation. Earliest spot we were…read moreable to secure was for a 2pm brunch. We got the pancakes and breakfast sandwich. The pancakes are some of the best I've ever had. So fluffy and light soaked in the sweet butter syrup. To die for. I felt like the breakfast sandwich was kind of a flop, I felt like it was missing a sauce to it and it just felt like items smacked together, nothing innovative. Overall crowded and busy for such a tiny space, but I still love coming here.

We came here for their famous 'Honey Butter Pancakes' . We got here for brunch and the wait list…read morewas for already an hour wait. We weren't in a hurry and we found a seat bench around the corner. They do not offer seats to wait either. The restaurant was small inside but they had enough outdoor seating. I recommend eating inside, if you can. The restaurant is by the Brooklyn bridge and when the subway passes on the bridge and it's like every five minutes, it's soooo loud!!!! It's almost annoying and hard to hear yourself so this would not be a good date if you sat outside. You won't hear each other. We didn't order much but we had coffee, Korean fried chicken and a double stack of their honey butter pancake with berries on top. I have to say how disappointed I was on their Korean fried chicken. It was heavily coated with breading and smothered in sauce. It had a fire kick to it. It was not unbearable. It had ok flavors only but what could you expect from this type of restaurant. Service was ok. So my stars are only for the pancakes. It was delicious! Nothing else I have tasted before. So if you are not here for a date and just to eat, I would give it a try. [45R,2026]

Had another great experience at this Carnegie Diner location just last week and would like to thank…read moreJennifer for her attentive service and warm hospitality! I ordered the fettuccine alfredo with chicken this time, which came out tasting exactly the way I had been craving it, and I was reminded why this Carnegie Diner had established a positive association in my memory years ago. The restaurant is modern and functional, so not a "retro"-styled or nostalgic diner, and the food and service are the stars here. I look forward to returning with friends.

Second Carnegie location we've tried and it was great! I see reviews mention how pricy this place…read morecan be, but there's another diner across the street that's even more expensive (12 for fries at other diner 4.99 here), so there's that! It's a typical busy NYC diner with a huge menu. It's a local chain so it's nice to try different dishes at different locations, so it's always a treat IMO. My husband got the turkey club (what I got last time at other location) and I had the chick-feel. My son got the chicken fingers. Turkey club: Good as always. Husband very much enjoyed. Chick-Feel: definitely a take on thr original chick fil a sandwich. But better. Their sauce is a house made version of what tastes like the CFA sauce. I'm glad I had it this time but I'll pass on the sauce if I ever had a hankering for a fried chicken sandwich again. My stomachless self cut in half and I enjoyed for lunch the next day. Kids' chicken tenders: they are huge. They are more like cutlets than tenders. Good value for $. This also lasted 2 meals. Service is extremely fast! Good amount of seating. You'll definitely find something you like here.

I didn't even realize this spot would be open early enough for us to enjoy some strong mimosas before our long day, but what a pleasant surprise! We were greeted warmly, seated right away at a nice corner table, and our drinks came out quickly. Before we knew it, we were ordering food, and it arrived shortly after. I had the steak and eggs, while my sister ordered the chicken and waffles. Let me tell you, the steak and eggs were SO GOOD! I was genuinely impressed because I don't usually order steak anywhere other than a steakhouse, lol. !! They cooked it perfectly and exactly to order. It was so delicious that we ordered another plate for a friend who was joining us because we already knew they would love it, too! The food, service, and overall atmosphere were all on point. Everyone was great, and the vibes were fun and welcoming. Then, on our way out, we stopped by the bar to take a few shots to officially seal off our brunch, and the bartender was AMAZING! The energy was just as good at the bar as it was at our table. Mom's Kitchen definitely delivered on the food, drinks, and vibes! If you're looking for a fun spot for an early morning brunch in Manhattan, especially in Hell's Kitchen, I would absolutely recommend checking this place out. I'll definitely be back!

I used to come to Mom's Kitchen & Bar pretty often when I lived in NYC, so coming back to New York…read moreand making this one of my stops was a must. Thankfully, the food was still really good! I got the buffalo mac & cheese balls, veggie burger and a passion fruit margarita with a coronita during happy hour. The margarita was GOOD lol and definitely did its job . The buffalo mac & cheese balls were probably my favorite, especially with the Sriracha ranch. My boyfriend loved them too and ended up getting the burger as well, but swapped the veggie patty for beef because he liked all the toppings and condiments. Our server was really friendly and service was good overall. My only complaint was cleanliness. The table we sat at was sticky and I noticed quite a few other tables that looked like they needed a more thorough wipe down. The restrooms could've been cleaner too. Still glad I came back though. The food definitely didn't disappoint!

Many, many, many moons ago, I was a poor college kid who passed by this place every single day on…read moremy way to my internship, thinking that one day, when I'm finally not broke as hell, I will dine at this charming, retro-looking place. Fast forward to 2026 (where I'm finally not broke as hell), the day has finally come, and I am ecstatic about stepping foot into this diner that surprisingly is still standing in 2026. The inside certainly feels like a diner, but not quite the old-school dinginess that I'm used to--it's clean. Given that it was Sunday at noon, it was very crowded in there and mainly flooded with tourist groups, but a table opened up for us pretty quickly. For a NYC diner, the menu is certainly small - this is probably done to keep tables moving faster. I got the Pastrami Hash & Eggs and it was just overdone and super oily and dry--almost as if they just refried everything except the sunnyside egg. Not gonna lie, I was very disappointed, given that I had waited for so long to come here, only to get food that was an attempt to give the staleness another chance by refrying and reheating. I actually beat myself up a little the rest of the day for finishing the whole thing, knowing that the oversaltiness was flirting with opening up some high blood pressure. It was also not moderately priced by any means (was close to $30), but I know I'm helping pay for that Midtown and proximity to Central Park pricing. Not sure if I'll return, which saddens me, but also knowing that they're part of a conglomerate at Fireman Group (and still run independently in a sense) makes total sense

Delicious breakfast for three at 8:15 am on a Thursday before our half-day Experience NYC tour…read more The restaurant was a block from the Hilton Tempo hotel where we stayed. It is not the iconic Carnegie Deli, known for its huge corn beef and pastrami sandwiches. This place is known for its all day breakfast,, 24-layer Chocolate Cake, and massive milkshakes. Good food and drink menus and service. Our food came out quickly. Food was pricey, but it was well prepared, served in generous portions, and made with quality ingredients.

Vibe Classic 9th Ave diner. I wasn't planning on eating…read morehere. I ran into friends waiting outside for a table and they invited me in. I've been before, so I knew what to expect: dependable and comfortable, with nothing fancy. Nutella Pancakes The best thing at our table. They're fluffy, with sliced banana and berries, a chocolate drizzle, powdered sugar, and a cup of Nutella on the side for dipping. It's indulgent and well executed, and I'd order it again. Frittata Just okay. The eggs were cooked fine and the peppers and tomato gave it some color, but the flavor was flat. The home fries on the side were crisp-edged and did more for the plate than the frittata did. Wrap and Fries My friends' wrap came with fries, coleslaw, and a big pickle spear. It's standard diner fare, filling, and nothing to complain about. Verdict The food isn't spectacular, but it's reliable, the portions are generous, and the sweet dishes are the ones to get. It's a solid neighborhood diner for a casual meal with friends. Order the pancakes and skip the frittata.

Disappointed because I've been coming here for years now and the service has dropped dramatically…read more The restaurant was maybe 1/5th full, with about 7-8 tables. We got seated really quickly but our server didn't show up for a while. We waited for him to take our order for almost 10 mins after being seated. He didn't write anything down in our order: stuffed tomato (which is what I always get) chicken and rice soup, Caesar salad, and waffle fries. The food came out quickly but right away, I realized he gave me a stuffed avocado, not tomato. I didn't eat any further, waiting for him to come back but he never checked in on us until about another 10 mins later when we were very obviously looking for him and other servers grabbed him. At this point, we had to get going pretty quickly and we told him that my order was wrong but we needed to get going. He apologized but had a weird attitude, like it was my fault he put in the wrong order though I said tomato 3 times while ordering. We waited another 5-6 minutes to find him again to get the check. He never corrected the ticket, but he did bring a to go container with tomato slices, which is not the same. I think Westway had a good run for me, won't be coming back.
