"How come I didn’t know about this place?! Monarch Restaurant located inside Zaza Hotel, is a hidden gem 💎 by the Museum District, perfect location for such a beautiful restaurant. They have valet and friendly hotel hosts that welcome you at your arrival. Monarch staff is attentive and knowledgeable. This restaurant is famous for their Lamb Lollipops, and this is one of my favorites dishes, I have had Lamb Lollipops in many other restaurants, but these blew my mind away! With crushed pistachios and feta cheese, this one of the items they will forever keep, absolutely delicious! We also had pizza, very good as well. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, there is so much art in every corner, definitely a charming place for a date, happy hour or business diner. You will not regret dining here!"

"Excuse me, this is by far, one of my favorite Hotels due to its elegant and vintage design. The Monarch also adds a nice touch to aesthetics, offering delicious food & a soft dining experience. My favorite feature is the grand piano room that accompanies a crystal chandelier hanging center over—there also happens to be framed art throughout, giving it a unique museum feel The food and drinks served at the Monarch are tasty, their lamb lollipops and salad are my favorite! I literally have no complaints—as this is one of my go to restaurants"

"Had a wonderful birthday celebration dinner here with my daughter and my cousin. Food was good and the server was great. I forgot his name and I hate that because I like to give recognition properly. He was a younger tall guy with blonde hair. He was kind, very attentive, patient and had a wonderful personality. If the restaurant see this and knows who I'm referring to please let him know how wonderful he was. We were there til almost closing the night of Dec 29, 2025 if that helps narrow down who was scheduled that night."

"We popped in for just 1 round of cocktails for the 3 of us. The drinks are impressive, upscale & pricey. Definitely worth the ambiance & the location! Beautiful presentation & excellent service!"

"We came here to have breakfast after our stay at Hotel Zaza. The food was filling but the potatoes lacked seasoning and flavor. Omelet was well cooked and the French toast was exquisite. The pricing matches the hotel, but for the quality of the food it is overpriced (subjective). The service was slow to bring our check and fill our drinks but was not bad. Our experience wasn’t the best due to a child screaming for awhile, which I know isn’t under the restaurants control but also could be attended to. Just wasn’t as great as we expected."
