Zarates Family Restaurant

First time visit. I ordered Irish eggs benedict, asked that my hash be crispy, but it was not. Home fries were awful. Eggs were perfect. Service was top shelf. Very nice girls in FOH. Will be back to try other delicious sounding menu items another time.

A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home

If you haven’t been to Zarate’s Family Restaurant yet, you’re truly missing out on one of the best dining experiences in town. From the moment you step through the door, you’re greeted with the warm, inviting atmosphere of a small family-owned place where everyone seems genuinely happy you came. It’s the kind of spot where the staff remembers your name, your favorite dish, and even how you like your coffee (or water in our case).

The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every single bite tastes like it was made with love and a dash of family tradition. You can tell the so much work has been put into the recipes to perfect them. Whether you’re craving comfort food classics or something with a little creative twist, Zarate’s delivers every single time. The flavors are fresh, balanced, and cooked to perfection—no shortcuts here.

And let’s talk about value. In a world where a lot of restaurants charge more and serve less, Zarate’s is a breath of fresh air. The prices are incredibly reasonable, especially considering the outstanding quality of the food. You can enjoy a full, hearty meal without feeling like you’ve just emptied your wallet.

The portions are humongous—truly generous in a way that makes you feel cared for. You’ll probably find yourself taking home a box for later, and trust me, leftovers from Zarate’s taste just as amazing the next day.

Between the unbeatable prices, the mouthwatering flavors, and the warm, family-like atmosphere, Zarate’s Family Restaurant has easily earned the title of “best food in town.” It’s the kind of place you recommend to everyone you know, the kind of place you keep going back to, not just for the food, but for the feeling of being part of something special. My wife and I have brunch there every Saturday as well as dinner multiple times a month.

Five stars doesn’t even come close to doing it justice.

It’s good, but nothing special! Plus they charge too much to use your debit card!
