Zora's Cafe - New York City

I had never fried green tomato and they were delicious! the fried chicken was perfectly cooked. the service was great and we didn't have to wait long. I am definitiw back.

I had ochre tails, it brought me home, in southern style. I couldn't stop talking about her. collards and mac ches- also.

I had a few friends there last night. the place was quite quiet when we sat down for the first time. the doors and windows were open to the pavement and it was a bit warm inside. our waitress was very friendly and she was the only other worker next to the female chef in the kitchen. it took a while to get the food, because everything is made fresh, until the maisbrot, which did not look like traditional brot, but was really good. the fried green tomatoes were well prepared with a thin coating of teig. I had the fried catfish that was a big piece of tasteful fish. the red beans were excellent although the mac n’cheese a little bland. my friend ordered the fried chicken and said that would be good. we have to come back.

Experience was pretty good. drinks were great, eating was decent and the music was good. overall enjoyed this cozy restaurant.

Amazing, authentic Southern food. A real gem of place to eat. Staff was lovely and sweet. Really liked this place.
