Zaro’s Family Bakery Reviews

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1I got a sesame bagel with cream cheese, not worth the calories. The only way i can describe it is doughy. So much so, it feels like you are eating playdoh.It gets stuck to your teeth kinda bagel. The bagel was toasted. I got a carrot cake which was nice, i liked the fact that is not overly sweet. i think it has cinnamon, or some spice i cant put my finger on it. I liked it, and would get it again. Because of the cake it is why i rated 3 and not 2 stars. I also got almond crossant, and the word that comes to mind is undercooked. It is not crispy.
July 02 · Eda SI tried their rugelach for the first time. They were okay, a bit dry to my taste. The pastry itself was light and flaky. However, the inside was like chocolate brown, but on the dry side. The sugar on the top was a nice touch. Overall, it was okay. Probably wouldn’t try it again.
February 16 · Bradley CGood balance of fillings.Great stop for being on the go. Staff was fast and made sure the people who were asking for free food left other patrons alone.I got the Jeremy J.
June 09 · Ariel AlvarezI stopped in at the grand central station location just a few days ago to grab the Knicks black and white and I was really disappointed I got one that had a good portion of it broken off!! At least it was still good though and the Knicks killed it that night which made up for it so I’m not mad at it all!
May 21 · Rich HDisappointed with the lack of effort on the cream cheese spread and quantity. Flavorless bagels. Only in a pinch and starving should you come here. Coffee is probably fine
