Angie and staff took amazing care of us. We were "celebrating" our father/grandfather's passing and the experience was so amazing. always great food and it was even better with the amazing service. thank you Zes!

Ordered and when the food came out was cold, asked why we were served someone else's food and they completely denied it. The silverware was not cleaned and brought to their attention and they shrugged it off like it wasn't a big deal. They just wiped off with a nasty towel or napkin. We just left. Shut it down, such a uncleanly place esp for breakfast ???

Nice place to sit and eat. Staff were prompt and friendly. I feel like the burgers needed salt.
The cheese curds were good but too salty. I would come back.

I have their breakfast or their burger, fries and shake for $10 on Tuesdays. Their food is very good
Great food at good prices. They have more variety on the menu than your average dinner.

First time with my Niece and the experience was just amazing. Waitress was very polite, big smile and understanding. Food was absolutely fabulous, nice portions and the prices for a meal is just right. Love the classic burger with bacon added on, asked for medium and received medium, fries was perfect. My niece loves the Ze’s Slam, said everything about it was very good. BBQ chicken wings is tinder and to my surprise it has a nice crunch as well. The cook can definitely cook, that’s for sure. Really enjoyed the classic theme environment and classic music. Would definitely come back.

My family and I had a TERRIBLE experience at Ze's Diner in Woodbury. We brought our 4 children to this (what we thought) a nice diner that would be something different for us. We first called to see how busy they were and no one picked up the phone. We drove to the diner and when we arrived, there were only 2 other tables with people. Quite confusing why the phone went attended. Next, while we were waiting for our food, our kiddos were going crazy and this diner does not provide any coloring menu or crayons for kiddos to keep them busy. They then were touching all of the toy trucks that were at their level and we had to keep telling them not to touch them. It only got worse as the food was not great at all. The fries (that we had to pay extra for that came with a kids meal) were so dark brown they were obviously using old oil to make them in. The Cajun pasta was really just alfredo sauce and tomatoes, nothing Cajun about it at all! They then gave me a bowl of Cajun spice to add to my plate of pasta MYSELF. My husband's omelet had NO cheese on it. At the end, we received our check and we paid at the front counter. When we came back to the table to wrap up the kiddos, the waitress came back to our table and asked if we were ready for our bill. Not sure how this happens when we were 1 of 3 tables in the entire diner. We did let the owner know of our experience that night. They told us that they felt bad and would immediately address their staff about these issues. The owner was nice to give us a refund for our order. However, after checking our bank account after a week, we discovered that the owner never really refunded us all. $70 for our family to eat there and was definitely not worth it!!
Terrible experience, would not recommend to any family.

A great place to eat. Try to go at least once a week home cooking, mom's home, cooking food, wonderful wait staff and friendly. Everyone should try it
Lacking serious attention to detail regarding cleanliness. Had been here 4 years ago and had a positive experience but I'm leaving a new review because I wouldn't choose to eat here again.
I had the apple fritter french toast, which tasted like plain french toast with emphasis on the eggs. The scrambled eggs were fine, as were the hash browns. I'd liken the quality to Perkins or IHOP.
I didn't use any syrup because it looks very questionable. It was very cloudy and there was some kind of gross build-up inside the container. I looked at other tables with syrup and theirs looked the same, albeit in a different style container. I saw 4 different container styles.
It was the same with the pepper shaker! I'm concerned about whether they ever clean things. And if they're okay with those things looking like this, what do the things we can't see look like?! I'd be terrified of what their soda fountain looks like, those things are notorious for being disgusting and not getting cleaned enough.
This is why I didn't try the "homemade strawberry jam" they give you in a small squeeze bottle (like a very small ketchup or mustard bottle). As someone who has done a fair amount of canning and used to make jam and jelly, I worry about the safety since it's homemade. Not worth the risk.
Also, they coffee tastes like cheap diner coffee yet they won't even leave the carafe at the table, so you have to wait on your server to bring you a refill. When they're busy, you've finished your meal before they come back! You get a small ceramic mug (my guess is 10 oz) and they charge $3.50 as of the time of this review (July 2024).
Overall, I don't think it's worth the price. It's mediocre food at best and I seriously question the cleanliness.
