“I came here for some breakfast on my first morning in NYC. It’s my first time in America and wanted a true American diner experience. Westway went above and beyond what I expected. My server Imelda provided great service and the food and coffee there was amazing. If you plan on visiting NYC definitely visit Westway.“

“While in the area trying to kill time, we decided to grab brunch with an outdoor dining since we had our pup with us. Even though their outdoor patio wasn’t setup, there was a single table outside on the corner, which they ended up allowing us to sit at.
Once we sat down, the waitress was quick to bring us utensils and menus. Not only did she bring us water, she also brought ice and water for my dog —this was so generous for her to be so accommodating. For food, I ordered the Breakfast Burrito ($17) while the boyfriend had the Cheeseburger ($16) with Bacon (+$3). Our food came out quickly and they both also came with potato sides. The fries were super crispy and tasty, but the home fries were just ok.
Overall, the food is mediocre here —nothing to run home about. But what stood out to me here is the service with our waiter specifically. She was so helpful and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of the entire time.“

“If you're in New York and want to have a delicious, well-served breakfast in an atmosphere reminiscent of movies...don't forget to go to JOHNS COFFEE SHOP. I really liked the place, the waiter was very attentive and everything we ordered was good (family - 5 people).

“We were in NY for a week. So thankful we happened upon this diner! We had brunch there 2 days, and drinks before a play. The food was amazing, as were the drinks, but the best part was the staff!! I loved the vinaigrette on the brunch greens that accompanied my omelet. Would LOVE to know the brand or the recipe! Eat here! You'll be happy you did!“

“Delicious food and very nice service from Rebecca. I had a party of 6, with some vegetarians, and someone who had to eat something gentle on the stomach. We sat at the bar and our server, Rebecca, was super nice, attentive, bilingual (which was helpful for our group), and gave great food recommendations.
I ordered the braised short rib 5/5 would order again in a heartbeat, especially for the price. Comes with brasato sauce a lemon vinaigrette, perfect for cutting the richness. Some of our party ordered veggie burgers, others ordered chicken noodle soup. I also ordered a mocha.
Definitely eat here if you’re in the area and in the mood for comfort food this winter!“

“Hit the spot. I had the “Mexican” Omelette with added ham. Along with what looks to be actual home fries made from actual non processed potatoes.. not the chopped up store bought kind.. Either I was exhausted from walking all day and it being 2 AM, or this food was just that good! Never the less, I will definitely be eating there again!“

“I am absolutely a big fan of this place. The first time I came here was in 2019 when my 25th birthday landed on thanksgiving. My sister and I stumbled upon it so we stopped in for breakfast. They were really nice, the service was quick, and the portions were great. Also super affordable within the city!
I wanted to stop in on my 30th birthday this year which once again fell on thanksgiving. I was with my other sister and the situation was the same. Super nice, quick, great portions, and affordable. We also loved their food and ate every bite. This is now my favorite place in the city and I’m excited to go back every year from now on!“

“Classic diner with an extensive menu that includes daily specials. The parking lot was full, which is always a good sign for me. I tried the daily special of the gyro platter and the chicken noodle soup. The soup was sufficiently savory and soothing, the lamb in the gyro platter was the typical pre-slide thin patties, the lettuce was fresh romaine with nice thick slices of juicy tomatoes and red onions with a generous dusting of briny feta. The portions are also generous and I wasn’t able to finish my meal. The prices are very reasonable and the service was exceptional. Definitely adding this Tibbett’s to my list of go-to diners.“

“A GEM find in Long Island City. Walking distance from our hotel, perfect little diner for breakfast or lunch. We ordered breakfast for lunch:) the pancakes were some of the best we’ve ever had! I had blueberry pancakes & both of my kids had pancakes. They came out fast and steaming hot, PERFECT. And the prices were so reasonable. This is an a must visit!“

“We went for brunch to this restaurant with our grandchildren. We were greeted by the nicest waiters of all time. My husband and I had the Club Sandwich and our grandson had pancakes and bacon. The portions were so generous and quite affordable. Our granddaughter was sleeping in a stroller and the lady who greeted us even helped us tilt the back of her stroller down and find the perfect place to sit to accommodate her. Wonderful place to go for lunch!“

“An honest to goodness "Retro" Diner that offers a wide range of classic breakfasts as well as all the buyers, sandwiches, and wraps for meals later in the day. Comfy booths looking out onto a busy street for endless people watching.“

“The service was great and the food was fresh and tasty. It was a little quiet but maybe it was that time of day. The price was reasonable. Just wished there was specials of the day and maybe a little more items on the menu like a regular diner.“

“It's tough to put how much I love this place into words, so I will let my buddy (and Chat GPT), ever so eloquently, do it for me.
"At the Empire Luncheonette,
where dreams fry in grease,
The aroma of burgers offers no release.
A dive so lascivious, it pulls you inside,
Where the coffee is bitter, and sins don’t hide.
The fryers hum songs of indulgence and lust,
Hash browns in the air, as your soul collects dust.
Pancakes stack high, syrup drips like a tease,
Every corner whispers, “Stay, won’t you, please?”
A chorus of bacon and oil’s smoky haze
Clings to your coat, your hair, all your days.
You leave reeking of fries, a greasy bouquet,
A badge of your weakness, a scent of delay.
To the massage you go, perfumed by regret,
But the masseuse’s deep sighs won’t let you forget.
For no lavender oil, no calming touch,
Can undo the diner’s indulgent clutch.
So linger if you must, in Empire’s thrall,
But know it will mark you, body and all.
A kingdom of craving, it takes its due,
And leaves you perfumed with its oily hue."“

“I always eat at Michaels restaurant and love the food. This past Friday, I have to say, it was the best I have ever eaten. Lisa the waitress we sometimes have, said I have really good roast beef and I was debating about getting it. She knows I like my beef med. rare. I ordered it and it was soooooo good. She took such good care of us. This restaurant is really good and I'm glad that Astoria, has the diner.“

“Ok, Grant Plater u fukn idiot it's obvious u don't get out to eat much... So d*** f*** any diner in the fun word u go to u get a waffle that can be cut into 4 sections. As far as chicken n Waffles d*** fuk unless u specify fried chicken and waffles, u will get tenders as for the gravy stupid for ur chicken, ur supposed to use syrup with this plate. If you did get fried chicken the cost would go up, duhh let me guess u would b**** about that to. Unless u no how a dish is served u should not complain because u sound like a fukn d*** a** who doesn't have a clue about dining out.. you wud be the type to go to a classy astablishment and say wats all the forks and spoons for by one plate.. ask before u comment and make a a** out of urself“

“Back in my home state and staying with my sister in the Bronx, there was no way I was going home without coming here for some hometown New York style diner good grub. I typically grab Dunkin Donuts on a daily but it’s just something about that diner style coffee in that old school but traditional white mug. It was so good. I opted for a a western omelette with turkey and Lo AND BEHOLD, they put real cut up/chunked up pieces of turkey in my omelette too.“
