    Triple berry French toast.
    Chavonne S.

    My husband grew up in Prior Lake and has lived in California for the past 55 years. Whenever he comes home, we have struggled to find a restaurant. Ze's Diner was a pleasant surprise! I am a connoisseur of biscuits and gravy and Ze's is one of the best! The biscuits were flaky and not overcooked. The sausage gravy was meaty and flavorful. We shared the triple berry French toast and it was delicious! My husband had the country fried steak and he said it was one of the best he's had and the gravy was excellent. Of course, great food in a diner is wonderful and when you add the excellent customer service; it's a winning combination. Our server started when she was 14. She is now 28 and has finished college. She helps out occasionally because she loves the business and the family!

    This place is excellent. I had the country fried steak and eggs and it was delicious as ever. The staff were quick to assist with our table selection and asked us right away what drinks we wanted. The ambiance is upbeat and family friendly.

    Had a great time here! Busy place in the morning but we got seated in less than 5 minutes! Food was so delicious and there was plenty of options to choose from! It has such a nice retro feel with cool decor, we will definitely be back!

    This is my go to for breakfast. Go here hungry thought because you always get huge portions. The service is a ten, always keeping hot coffee in my cup and with a smile. The old diner feel. I only go for breakfast but it often packed.

    Food was really good! Next time I need to try their breakfast since that is what they are known for! The restaurant is a cool 50's vibe with Elvis all over, checkered floor and you can see the meals being made. The service was so quick without lacking attention to detail! Cannot wait for breakfast

    Cajun Omelet

    Today, I had lunch here with a couple friends. I've heard mixed reviews on the place, and diners aren't really my thing, so I wasn't expecting much. I did plan on only ordering diner food, because that's what diners do well. :) I was quite surprised with my meal. I got the Fiesta Omelet w/hashbrowns and toast. The omelet was spicy! It had lots of jalapeños in it. It was really good! The hashbrowns were good after adding a little salt. My friend got the Cajun Omelet, which was tasty, but not spicy at all. The service was good. I would go back here.

    my brother and his friend got burgers but devored them before i could get my phone out but i got the little stooges breakfast sandwich and a side of hollandaise sauce (not pictured). the hollandaise sauce.. well i ain't mad at it! but $2 for it... lame the inside was retro themed with 50s/60s music playing and had a lot of elvis decor. the staff were chill and quick overall a cute little spot to try out

    My Mixed Mess, a bottle of house-made rhubarb sauce, and my husband's King Kong Omelet.

    Stellar breakfast location!!! We loved the cute 50's diner vibe and it felt like the staff there loved it just as much. The servers always had a smile and chatted when they could, and it was amazing how quickly your coffee cup would be refilled or empty plates would be whisked off your table. I went with the Mixed Mess. The scrambled eggs were nice and fluffy and there was a great balance between the veg and meat. The eggs were nestled atop a golden bed of hashbrowns, and then topped off with a hollandaise sauce from the heavens. My husband had the King Kong Omelet and he loved it! The house-made rhubarb sauce was a really nice touch, as well. Can't wait to stop back in the next time we are in town!

    We have recieved coupons for years in the mail so we decided to give Ze's a try. We ordered the Clubhouse sandwich & the Sweet Moody ( Eggs, Bacon & French toast ) Both were very good, especially the French toast, I'm not sure what they did differently to them but they were excellent. The service was first rate too! Another nice thing was a neat 50s theme going on ( Murals of classic cars and old time movie stars ) We absolutely will be back for breakfast/ lunch again soon.

    The staff is always friendly and they have a nice selection on there menu. The decor is very nice…read moreand welcoming. This is our goto place for breakfast.

    We came in a few months ago and we were sat at a booth by the hostess and no one came to our table…read morefor over 15 minutes while other guests were being served and greeted. We were in plain sight of everyone so we didn't know whether our server was on a break and didn't get their table covered or what but we just got up and left. It was so uncomfortable to be in a room of people and just completely ignored, and it was relatively embarrassing to get up and leave after other customers just stared at us waiting for any kind of acknowledgement. We had been here many times before this instance so we decided to try it again recently and it was very disappointing. The table and booth were so sticky, there was just a general layer of dirt-film over everything in our booth. Our server had to come back to our table multiple times to get our breakfast order put into the kitchen (one trip for potato choice, one trip for eggs and I still didn't even get the right kind, one trip for toast, one trip for the meat, I felt like I was being punk'd), the food was extremely underdone but somehow took forever to prepare so I really just had toast and coffee for breakfast (almost raw hashbrowns, raw onions, barely melted cheese) and it was over $50 for two of us to have breakfast with a tip. When we moved here three years ago it was one of our solid spots for a bite to eat but I don't think I'd go back again after the last two experiences. We thought the first instance was a fluke when we weren't served or even greeted after we were sat but now the food isn't really worth going back for. Used to feel like a place to bring family and now it just has a very different vibe. Servers were nice and it's got potential to reign it back in but I can't say I'll be holding my breath. Really sad to see such a decline.

The food was ok, very expensive for what you get. It seems to be an up charge for everything. I would like to try their brunch but not sure I'd be back for regular food.

    We ordered a burger and fries. Both our orders had lukewarm fries at best. We asked for hot fries…read moreand they did deliver a few more that were warm. My husband, ordered Smashburger, but it came out basically a giant double hamburger, that did not have any flavor. His bun was super hard and not like it was toasted. It was just I think old. My hamburger was fine, but nothing to write home about it also lacked flavor. When we first sat down at our table, the server was scolding the hostess for seating the two of us at a 6 person table. When our server came back, I offered her to put us at a smaller table if she wanted, and she just rolled her eyes and said "it's really busy in here it doesn't matter". Every table was full. On the positive side, the temperature inside the restaurant was quite comfortable. They did seem to have enough staff members. I went to the bar to get some change for the cash tip, and the bartender was super helpful, quick and nice about it. Bathrooms were clean. I don't think we will go back, just because of the quality of the food.
