Kielbasa and Kraut Thursday special available 4 ways

Great old school bar with a small tasty menu. Friendly people and a Morris County Gem

a pretzel with a bowl of mustard

In the mood for a great burger tonight, and I couldn't imagine a better place than Zagursky's Bar & Grill, (AKA Z's) on Mt. Pleasant Ave. in Whippany, NJ. As usual, their generously sized 1/2 pound California burger was cooked to a perfect medium; juicy in the middle and crispy on the outside, with a pile of crispy bacon , lettuce, tomato, and pickle, served wuth a Keiser style roll. It was a handfull of deliciousness. Definitely one of my favorite burgers anywhere. I also ordered a large basket of french fries; expertly prepared, crunchy on the outside with a light, fluffy inside. Also a must have when at Z's is their soft, hot hot pretzel, with their super hot, clear your sinuses mustard. Zargursky's in one of those iconic, old school, classic, neighborhood joints that goes back to 1945 and are quickly disappearing. Ice cold beer, generous pours, great bar food, reasonable prices, and super friendly atmosphere and service. How could anyone not love Zagursky's. 10/06/2023

Very neat vibe with lots of TVs for the space size. Definitely can't seat more than 40 people or so but I'm sure standing room can get that number higher. Service was very good and friendly. The food is very good, limited menu with about 10 items to order but if you like bar type food this is the spot for you. Fun atmosphere for a guys night or meal. Definitely will be back with the boys.

A nice local bar, good food, good service, and well-made cocktails, and a decent selection of beer on tap and bottled/canned. Not a ton of seating, but we have been there for lunch on several occasions, and I have not had trouble getting a seat.

Pizza and burger ..

So I've been coming to Z's for years with my son and we sit on the restaurant side but we always are treated like family and have a great meal. I had the California burger for the first time tonight and it might have been the best burger I've had. I he ad it cooked medium and held the mayonnaise but it was cooked perfect and am still thinking about it. The menu is smaller after Covid but what's left is great food !!!!!

Fried wings

Food is really good. But they put take out food in brown paper bags lol. I guess that's just their signature thing to do. But i didn't mind lol. Food is really good, had the wings and fries. Would definitely go back.

Macro brew pints for $5, cheeseburgers cooked perfectly & served on a good roll for $8 and just $2.50 more for a side of fries, also friendly people -- Zagursky's is an a-ok neighborhood place. Don't expect craft beer, the 5 taps were Shocktop, Stella, Bass, Bud, Bud light. Left half is the bar, right half is tables with service. If you like low-key divey places you'll love it. I like divey places if I can chat at a reasonable volume, maybe on a quiet night Z's is the place. Unfortunately the noise level was ruinous when we visited on a busy Saturday night, conversation was flat-out difficult. To boot they were laughably understaffed with just one bartender and one waitress (working so hard she couldn't talk) for the entire place so everything took a while. If it's fried, you're probably safe :) Chicken wings here are basically battered fried chicken served dry with little cups of Frank's red hot sauce and bleu cheese dressing, a dozen for $11. Incredibly hot (thermally), very good fried chicken and the *parts* certainly are the wings, just didn't meet my expectation of buffalo wings. As others have noted the onion rings and fries are very, very good; ours arrived too hot to eat. My dining companion's burger was cooked medium to her spec, the roll was fresh, topped with a pallid unripe slice of tomato, very basic but also crazy cheap. Also serves bar pies, about $8 for a smallish pizza on a notably crisp crust with forgettable sauce and toppings. You should ignore them and focus on the burgers and fries. Vegetarian rating: 1 star bcos your options are greasy kid food: grilled cheese, cheese pizza, mozzarella sticks, french fries. Our pints were a tad flat, not completely devoid of fizz, but served without any trace of foam and just a little light on the bubbles. This was the stella and the bud; maybe system trouble?

Went in for dinner 720pm and the guy told us they wouldn't be able to serve us until 8pm because of a large order.

Had a special event for twp. Golf Simulator is really cool. Dart board area needs more lighting!…read more Good beers

Came here on March 6th to see a band play here. I liked the venue; it's very open and has a lot of…read morespace to move around. The sound was good, and the lighting made it feel like a a nice bar. When I closed out my tab, I mentioned to the bar tender (who was not too eager to help) that the number seemed too high. He said it was late and that it was probably a mistake, but if it showed up on my bank app, that I should call the next day. I was very disappointed to find that I had been double charged; I was charged for four drinks instead of two. I had an open tab, and so did a friend, he was charged a correct amount but mine was doubled. I called the next day and spoke to a manager, he said it happened all the time and that it would clear within a few days- and it would be the correct amount. When it didn't, I called back and let him know. He was able to see my tab and my friend's tab and assured me that it would fixed, it would just take a few days to get in touch with their bank. He took my info and told me he would get back to me. That never happened. I called a week or so later, and was told the manager was not in, but they would get back to me. That months ago. Every time I try to get in touch, it seems like a run-around. I liked the venue, but I will not be back.
