“Whenever we go by, we stop. The staff is personable and attentive, the coffee and teas are great, and we especially enjoy the treats. It is not the sterile, mispronounce your name, too hip to be pleasant vibe that many other shops have.“

“This place is a go-to spot for me and my boyfriend, I love their potatoes with onions. New Beginnings is by far the best value I've ever seen at a breakfast spot; you can get a 3rd egg for free, and you will never leave hungry. The staff is nice too, the place has a local small business feel to it and I leave happy every time I come here.“

“Food was very good, and my server was excellent.“

“It was great, the food was wonderful, and the staff allowed us to visit with family we have not seen in a long time. Did not leave hungry. Omelet was huge, with plenty of potatoes and onions.
Waitress was consistent with water and coffee, and bathrooms were clean.
We will return for breakfast again“

“Great place, you won't be sorry at all for eating here.

Parking: They are almost always half filled inside.

Kid-friendliness: Family owned and ran. Every server I observed was kind and friendly. Smaller portions are available

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in easy out.“

“I love this restaurant reminds me of going to the classic diners with my grandparents in the 80s. It's like every time I walk into a new beginnings restaurant it reminds me are the diners from 40 years ago and I'm instantly hit with nostalgia.

The staff are super friendly amazingly courteous and professional and the food is wholesome comfort food which always to me can turn a bad day into a good day just with a simple cup of coffee some eggs toast sausages... Nothing Better“

“Cute little restaurant that serves up kitchey-themed souhthwest food. Breakfast items were a few bucks higher than other breakfast places. My scramble bowl contained lots of potatoes. Only a few slivers of bacon, 2 eggs and cheese. An order of toast is just one slice of toast. Pancakes were just ok. Kind of rubbery.
The Santa Fe Chicken wrap was delicious. It was stuffed full with generous portion of fries. Service was attentive, polite and friendly.
Bathrooms were clean but they were out of soap.
We’d probably come back for lunch, but not breakfast.“

“Never had a bagel as good as yours!! If anyone out there likes "Everything Bagels" you'll LOVE theirs!!! NO doubt!!!“

“A wonderful and excellent experience. Delicious food and the attention from our waiter Garrett it was extraordinary!“

“Straight down the middle of the road......nothing exceptional here to brag about. The servers do their best on busy days and the cooks throw the food out as fast as they can, last time I was there my eggs were actually runny and I really didn't want to eat them like that. I always ask for over easy, not overly runny easy. lol Anyway, when Murphy's is closed on a Sunday, what cha going to do? It's New Beginnings or the Peppermil.“

“muy bueno el buffet tiene una gran variedad de comida y muy buen servicio al cliente se los recomiendo.“

“We are a Greek family and love the Greek dishes that Leo's Coney Island offers. We have dined there frequently, often bring friends. The food is always good and the service fantastic. That being said; however, we have decided not to dine there any longer during the cold months, as the owner chooses to keep the dining room quite frigid. We heat our home at 68 degrees and are comfortable at that temp. We have tried mutliptle visits to Leo's Coney Island this winter...and each time the dining room has always been uncomfortablly chilly. When we pay to go out to eat, dining with our winter coats on and still being cold is not a relaxing or enjoyable dining experience. We gave it another try last night visiting around 5:30pm (hoping the furnace was turned up). The dining area was extremely C-O-L-D! This could be why there were not many customers there? We asked the waitress if the heat could be turned up, and she replied, "No, the only person allowed to adjust the temperature is the owner, and he is not here". NOTE to Owner: Saving money by turning down the heat in the cold of winter does not provide a pleasant dining experience for your customers and certainly cannot be good for your business! So...we'll see you in the summer?.... ~ Chuck and Denise Antonopulos“

“The bathroom was dirty. The windows need to be cleaned. The waiter and waitress were fast and friendly.“
