Updating my review to five stars. We (my wife and I) have craved Mr Zeke's spicy wings since I previously wrote about my (our) delicious experience. And she isn't looking over my shoulder this time! Visiting Pinetop-Lakeside is wonderful whether during warm weather, the annual mountain bike race, or for snow. We now have yet another reason to return! She agrees. We'll be back. read more

Very casual place to grab dinner. My lemon basil pasta arrived luke warm but it had great combination of flavors. The grilled chicken sandwich and the coleslaw we perfect. The service was kinda slow but we were in no hurry. read more

Was not busy when arrived. Was seated quickly. Others that came in after us were helped before us. Very laid back and no system in place it seemed like. Food was decent. Seemed fresh. Zucchini had lots of potential. Was some brown in salad but tasted good. Wings were juicy but wish could've had a honey hot but choices were either honey bbq or hot. read more

We were in pinetop-lakeside for a few days so so we decided to give Mr Zeke's a try. We started with the Caprese salad, it had a dab of pesto on each piece which really mad it stand out. I ordered the Rubin, overall it was good but there wasn't enough meat on it and there was some grizzle in the meat, but it was tasty. My wife had the Philly sandwich, the meat was overcooked even though she asked before she ordered it "is it well done". so that wasn't so good. The fries and col slaw that we had for sides were both great as was the service. read more

My friend and I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich served on a brioche roll. The chicken was very dry, tough, thin, tasteless and overcooked (close to burnt). I took a couple of bites and didnt eat the rest....horrible!! When we voiced our concerns (in a very friendly manner) we were told there was nothing wrong with the entree. The waitress was pleasant but the cook appeared to be very uncaring. We paid a lot for our meals and will NEVER GO BACK!! Buyer beware! read more

This place did not impress me. Let's talk about the food first. I got the Capresse salad, and not only was its price horrendous, but the mozzarella was thick as a mega marshmallow, the tomato was nearly inedible, and the basil leaf tasted felt like rubber. Glad I ordered some extra chicken, because that was the only filling thing I ate. The service...not good. I was sat down reasonably fine, but that wasn't the problem. The waitress kept ignoring me and bumping into other people sitting down. The drinks I got were split into two groups: A. Super sticky and filled with syrup without much carbonation, or B. Seltzer water with a hint of Diet Pepsi. The waitress, for no reason at all, slammed the silverware onto the napkin, causing a loud noise. Service is a fail. Lastly, the ambiance. The outside was okay, and the door was maintained neatly, but here's where it's bad. As soon as I step in there, I see a dusty floor that they probably haven't cleaned or maintained in a week. There's also a smoke or steam of some sort coming from the tables, don't know why. It's also very dim inside, to the point where you almost need a light or something to clearly read the menu. I will not be coming back, since there are some other really good places in-town, unlike this. The food pictures are really deceiving, too. The salad looked really big, nearly the same size as the plate, but the actual salad filled a third of what I expected, so this place has lost my business. read more

Great food had the fish tacos.. so tasty, fresh slaw salsa and was also fast and awesome service!

I love this place! They have amazing burgers and fries. There are other dishes as well. Very relaxed and easy going atmosphere. The service was also excellent as well. Would highly recommend. read more

"For heaven's ZEKE :-)" I am pretty sure this would be your line once you dined in at Mr. Zeke's restaurant: The food is great. Service is commendable. The ambiance is artistically designed. We came here for dinner at Mr. Zeke's restaurant in Pinetop. I had the surf and turf tacos. These are 3 tacos served with steak, spicy-sweet slaw and homemade pico. I opted to have a sauteed shrimp on it. The combination of meat and seafood was perfectly balanced. Also, the salmon we ordered was moist and flavorfully cooked. I wanted a refreshing drink. The server suggested Arnold Palmer drink. It is a layered beverage that starts with the rich flavor of tea and finishes with a refreshing lemony twist. For dessert, we ordered their cheesecake (as I absolutely love cheesecakes) with fresh strawberry and topped with strawberry syrup and chocolate syrup. It was truly mouthwatering, with a creamy texture and a rich taste to your palate. The service was accommodating. Our server was keen that he checked on us to ensure that we were enjoying our meal. Mr. Zeke will always be a place I want to go back to. It's a must-visit in Pinetop. read more

Great food & drink (burger and Dos XX Amber) and service in a comfortable, friendly environment was exactly what was needed after a good morning hike. Highly recommended if you're in the area read more

The food was very good. My husband got the Patty Melt with fries which he thoroughly enjoyed. I had the Sweet Summer salad which was delicious, and they did not skimp on the toppings! The dressing that went with it gave it a great balance. I got a side salmon but felt it tasted a little fishy but great portion sizes. We will definitely be back! read more

Worst food ever! Breakfast wasn't good at all Fried beans was a joke, just blended with greasy chorizo. Eggs were uncooked and service was bad. Mean female waitresses. NEVER GOING BACK THERE read more

Mr. Zeke's was a good find for us as we had our pup Archie with us after a walk around Woodland Lake. Their enclosed front patio provided welcome shade on this very warm afternoon. The servers were very friendly and thoughtful, ensuring Archie had water and a treat, after asking us,of course. Their burgers are large and delicious, served on a brioche bun. They have all day breakfast Thursday-Sunday too so you don't have to rush to get breakfast. read more

Good sandwiches and good service. Prices are fair. Don't remember if I had a cocktail. But I do know that I wasn't carded (like I was at Neko Asian Fusion) because at age 70+ I have never been carded at any other restaurant. read more

Great service and 'welcome feeling' (some people call it 'vibe'), in this bar and restaurant. Don't let the small strip-mall location fool you. We were first time visitors for a beer and dinner. service was great, which is a challenge during summer up there. Go in for either, or both and you may be surprised like we were! read more

Have only been to this establishment a couple of times but food and service is excellent. Killer margaritas

Never had anything bad here, their burgers are great and they are a hidden local gem up here. Would definitely recommend!

First time at Mr Zeke's. We walked in and were seated immediately. We had five entries. Two salads, one Chefs salad and one Sweet Summer salad. Vegetables were fresh, crisp and tasty. Alfredo paste was creamy and satisfying. The burger were outstanding, one cheeseburger and one hangover burger. Both were juicy and flavorful. Some cool wall art and a chilled vibe. Portion are generous and prices are reasonable. We look forward to returning. Recommend. read more

Mr Zeke's Restaurant - Prime rib French dip - Burgers Near Me - Lakeside, Arizona

First time going and this place is a new favorite. We got the Zeke's sample platter for an appetizer with the fire fries and fried shrimp. All of that was amazing. Husband got the ribs which fell off the bone and had such good flavor. I got the Alfredo Cordon Bleu sandwich and wowowowowowow. It was also cold out so we got hot cocoa which I loved. Portions are pretty large so we have quite a bit to take home. Definitely coming back because of how many unique things they have on the menu. Staff was also super friendly! read more

We went for breakfast. It was standard fair. The food was okay and a bit cold. Not sure we'll go back.

I have been told about Mr Zeke's for awhile. Was in town for work and decided to give it a shot. Huge portions, delicious food, and excellent service. I will definitely be back on future visits! read more

Food was okay, service was pretty slow even though there weren't too many guests there. One of the servers kept sighing and grunting in dissatisfaction. The ambiance casual, typical dive vibes. Portions are pretty generous but pretty bland. It takes quite a while to get your order taken and even longer to get your food. Don't expect fast service from here. read more

This place exceeded our expectations in every way. The food was creative and delicious, at a great price! Service was great and every single thing we ate was 5 stars. read more

Service was very good. Mac &cheese burger was awesome. Nice little place tucked away up here.

This place is not closed, first of all. When they first opened, we enjoyed lunch there. Been years since we went back, tonight we tried it again. I have surgery tomorrow and for my final meal before that, I chose a caprese salad with salmon (20 dollar cost) and my husband ordered fiery pasta. When he brought it home, there was no salmon and no dressing for the salad. After paying 52 dollars with tip, I was disappointed. The mozzarella was flavorless, the basil was flavorless, the tomatoes were watery. My husband, who loves spicy things, thought his pasta was unbearably spicy. I contacted them to let them know of our displeasure and they offered us a 25 dollar gift card to use in the next few weeks. We might make it, but I suggest not veering from the lunch menu. Not worth the money in the least. read more

Food was ok. Took awhile to get the food. Our innings were given to the wrong table and finally came at the end of our meal.

Love this place. I've never had a bad experience here, and this place has the absolutely BEST garlic fries ever. There is so much food on the plate, you can split a meal. It's awesome! read more

We were passing through Pinetop on vacation and chose this restaurant because of their Yelp reviews and they were listed as having a dog friendly patio. The restaurant is in a small strip mall and the patio is in front with blinds to block it from the parking lot. We sat at the end table since we had two dogs. The hostess brought out a large water bowl for the dogs without being asked, so nice. I ordered the grilled cheese sandwich which was made with multiple different kinds of cheese and thick Parmesan bread that was delicious. My husband got the Reuben sandwich which was packed full of meat. Then we both got the garlic fries was a side, so good! Their menu was very extensive but not too many beers to choose from, though they did carry our favorites so not a problem. The waitress and hostess were both extremely friendly and accommodating with the dogs. I definitely recommend it if you're in the area. read more

I have a story about this place.... & it truly has nothing to do with 'Zeke's' but it happened at Zeke's, so I'm telling it here. First. Place is cute. Inside and outside seating. Food is decent. Service is decent. We got 'stuck' outside, so we didn't get to really see what goes on inside. We had a male server - we didn't get a ticket, so I don't know his name to give him credit for his great service. The story: July 7th 2023. We pull into the parking lot. It's tight, crowed and not many spots for ALL THE STORES TO SHARE. We head to a spot and noticed another car heading there. We asked if they were going for that spot but all the old man said was 'are you so-n-so?' We said no. He said 'oh; I thought you were my family'. We smiled, said no & parked as the old man kept going, dropped off his dining party at the door of Zeke's and went off to park. We went inside, gave our name and asked for a table for 4. Staff told us they were cleaning a table and it would be just a few moments. They called us but when we went to the table, the same little old man from the parking lot went and sat at our table. We all stood there confused as the staff told him the table was for someone else. He wouldn't budge so we were asked if we wanted to sit outside. Not really but nothing else was available. We ordered, we ate, we waited for a check. Our server came over and told us that our check was paid for by our non family, family. So we knew it was the little old man. I tipped our server $40 & told him to tell 'whomever' that we thank them & appreciate his kindness. So IF that man or his family is reading this- THANK YOU. read more

Mr Zeke's Restaurant - Fiesta salad w/ grilled chicken - Burgers Near Me - Lakeside, Arizona

This is a little hometown place. nothing fancy and it's perfect! put on your jeans a T, take family or friends. service was great. i sat on the patio by myself and chilled. i ordered the pasta carbonara and added grilled chicken for $6 extra. There were left overs so i took it to go and ate it for late night snack. I also ordered the peach cobbler to go and left off the ice cream. the peaches were fantastic, the breading/cobbler part wasn't great.It tasted very cinnamony and otherwise very bland. I wish I used the ice cream to mask that part. it was a great experience and i'll be back for more on their menu. read more

My husband and I ordered take out on 7/18/25. My husband loved the sausage patties. His eggs were cooked exactly like he wanted them. The pancakes were delicious. My bacon was cooked well done as I requested. We were visiting from the Valley. We will definitely go to Mr Zeke's again. read more
