If there's one thing all New Yorkers love, it's brunch.

As part of its 2016 restaurant-survey results, Zagat compiled a list of the best brunch spots in New York City.

Zagat reviewed restaurants in downtown, midtown, and uptown Manhattan, as well as in Brooklyn. Food ratings are out of 30 on the Zagat scale. For reference, scores between 26 and 30 are generally reserved for restaurants that are "extraordinary to perfection."

So whether you're a born-and-bred New Yorker or just passing through town for the weekend, here are the best places to get a leisurely start to your day.
