“I can’t believe there is no reviews on this diner on Facebook. We stepped in tonight had Ronnie as our server and the food and atmosphere was outstanding. Thank you all for the wonderful meal! We now have a reason to return to NYC just to visit this diner and get their smashburger!“

“Had dinner here and it was very tasty. The establishment interior is a small refined diner. Four booth seats bar top and two stand alone tables. The booth seating was plush and comfortable to fit up to four diners. One waitress and bartender on duty, with a small kitchen. We were sat and waited on fast, but food took sometime as the place filled up fast after. We ordered the steak and the wedge salad and fries. Took roughly 25-30 minutes for the food to come out. The Steak portion was tiny, not diner sized but to be expected for the area. The meat was tender and well seasoned the potatoes were soft and complemented the dish. The wedge salad was cheesy and well seasoned.“

“This Manhattan diner was neat and clean, and the food was definitely good. The staff was friendly, but one downside was that they charged for refills on small cups, which felt a bit pricey. Overall, a solid spot for a tasty meal if you’re in the area, just be aware of the extra charges, they will try to be sneaky.“

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE+1(8O5)-41O 5OO2 NO NONSENSE AND GREAT ASSISTANCE!!!“

“Traditional old school diner with wonderful staff and very intimate. Prices and food are better than the fancier looking, large dinners in the city. The place is small but customers are wise to eat and allow others to enjoy breakfast and great burgers for lunch. Been a fixture there for years and always loved the pancakes and sausage for breakfast. Maybe I will go tomorrow.“

“I didn’t expect a full blown broadway show experience in a restaurant! If you want show tunes and pop music served with a plate of great food then this is the place for you! Our server Brandi M. belted out a wicked version of The wizard and I! I ordered the BLT with avocado and waffle fries and my friend ordered the chicken and waffles. Both were delicious.“

“I love it ! Great service and great food 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽“

“A genuine, classic NYC diner run by a couple of brothers! The food is excellent and high quality, with quick service. It’s my go-to in the area.

If you’re looking for a taste of the good-old days of NYC, this is the spot!“

“This was our 3rd time visiting. We brought friends from FL and we wanted to give them an experience of a wonderful NJ diner. Food wise it was amazing but this time it was VERY loud with music and it was impossible to have a conversation. It ended up being a different experience than the one I planned because of how loud it was. Our server was great and food was delicious, but I am not sure if I would visit again because it was hard to have a conversation with people at the table.“

“Randomly found this hidden gem & I seriously wanted to gatekeep. But they deserve their flowers fr!! I'm obsessed with their pancakes in the griddle stack combo!! And the smash browns???? CHEF'S KISS. I'm definitely going to start coming here more regularly. I love me a lil crispy crunchy moment and you get all of that and more with the smash browns. Cause they fry the smash browns with peppers. Then it's topped with tomatoes and green onions. Everything I've ever wanted in a bite! Seasonal depression? WHERE? Good Ol Days Diner healed my soul baby lmao“

“Excellent diner overall. Highly recommend.“

“Baby Blues Luncheonette definitely lives up to the hype. When we arrived, it was already pretty crowded, and for good reason. They don’t take reservations, so be prepared to wait especially on a Sunday around 11:30 a.m. like we did. We ended up waiting about two hours, but they do send you a notification when your table’s ready, and they also show you how many parties are ahead of you, which makes the wait feel a bit more manageable.

The place itself is small, and tables are pretty close together, but it wasn’t an issue for us. The menu is straightforward and easy to navigate, and the prices are very reasonable. My partner got the “Plato’s Plate,” and I went for the “Chicken Club.” Both were fantastic. My partner gave her dish a 9/10, and I’d give mine the same rating. The price-to-quality ratio was excellent, and we had no complaints. The only small note from my partner was that the bacon on her plate was a bit greasy, but it wasn’t a big deal.

We also shared a side of “Greek Potatoes and Tzatziki.” That dish was another 9/10. The only downside was that there wasn’t quite enough tzatziki for all the potatoes, so I’d recommend asking for extra on the side if you order it. No real issue though, just a small suggestion. We had an “Iced Coffee” and a “Regular Coffee” with our meal, and both were spot on.

One more thing: we were treated to a complimentary dish of fresh strawberries and blueberries with whipped cream (as you can see in the photo I included). We’re not sure what it was called, but it was light, refreshing, and delicious. Easily a 10/10, and I’d highly recommend it if you get the chance.

The service was also excellent. Our server was friendly and attentive, and even the hostess deserves a shoutout. We arrived a bit late for our seating time, but she was understanding and still got us a table despite it being so busy. Really appreciated that.

The bill was pretty reasonable for everything we got, and I left a $15 tip because of the great service and the complimentary fruit bowl.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience, great food, great atmosphere, and excellent service. The wait time can be long (ours was 2 hours), but it’s totally worth it when you consider the quality of the food and the prices. I’ll definitely be back, and I highly recommend you give it a try too!

Thanks for reading, and I hope this helps!“

“Had breakfast there twice. Once solo and the next time with my wife. Consecutive Tuesdays. Just there this morning, after the golf range at Chelsea Piers. It's a combination of Greek and Mexican specialties. I have sampled the eggs overeasy with corned beef and this time had three poached eggs with fresh tomato and feta, home fries and coffee. All wonderful. My wife had fried eggs with ham on top of grilled taco. She loved it. This is a top notch diner with excellent service.“

“Amazing food as always. Been three times so far and I will be back again this week for more 👌🏻“

“Huge shout out to Rebecca! Incredible service and so friendly! Hope to see her again next time I visit!

Impeccable vibe; great decor, clean, classic 80s music playlist, and kind and attentive staff!

Selection of cocktails put a fun twist on classics without being difficult to understand. Food options have fresh sandwiches with an array of fillings and delicious entrees.

Had the hibiscus marg w/ mezcal. Fragrant and light smokiness, really refreshing. The Steak Frites was cooked really well despite some fatty pieces, crispy fries and great portion size. Salsa verde was slightly liquidy but still tasty.

Definitely recommend lunch here, bar seating is supreme.“

“We just had brunch in West way Diner and it was 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Choosing was really difficult as I wanted a bit of everything - really extensive menu, so so good! Servers were fab, attentive but not intrusive. Refillable drinks were available . Highly recommend,. definitely worth a visit 🌟❤️“

“We were recommended this diner on the plane to New York and it didn't disappoint. Great servers, always smiling and happy to help. Delicious food and a great place to spend some time.“

“My partner and I had some extra time before heading to the airport and we stop by here for breakfast. What a lovely restaurant! We had the Chilaquiles Verdes with some green hot sauce and WOWWWW! That was good! I also had some cantaloupe juice. 10/10.“

“Delicious food. You get a lot of food for the price. Great NYC diner!“

“I have loved this place for years. It’s has this really warm, old school diner atmosphere. The food is fresh and delicious without any delay. The staff are so sweet and it’s just such a great experience every time. I’m there almost weekly at this point and it’s just the perfect way to start my day.“

“Thanksgiving Day Special was amazing !!!! If you come to NYC, you better eat at this place !!!! Off the hook…… Amazing !!!!!“

“If you are downtown and don't know where to eat, this is the right place. Great variety, it's not a cart and the service is very good. It's the second time I've been here and I liked it both times. The place is nice and quiet“

“The breakfast menu is just perfect with something for everyone. I preferred the pancakes with eggs, bacon and sausage. Those pancakes were so tender and I used lots of butter on them. Yummy!“

“The entire experience left nothing to be desired. The location selected for Townhouse Diner proves its worth daily. Workers' approach: excellent. Alert and practiced. The dishes satisfy the taste buds, use fresh items, and appear visually striking. The restaurant sits in a perfect area and the employees were attentive throughout.“

“I was in the club, didn’t get a chance to try the restaurant this time around. The door person & security were great, took a second to get in but they were polite & had to let in a few guest before me. I got to see DJ Ellie play and for a Thursday it was busy pretty early. The dj before Ellie was good, the service was fine & people were dancing. Great mood for a Thursday in lower Manhattan. I’ll have to try the food next time.“

“Great food and service, highly recommended“

“such a great place! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was amazing. Our waiter made sure our food was exactly what we wanted by asking intentional questions - about the chocolate milk and even how we wanted the blueberries/chocolate chips on our pancakes - also asked if we wanted our bacon crispier or not when our plates came out. He was so kind, helpful and patient!! All of our food was good! Very impressed and would definitely eat here again. Thank you so much!!!“

“Fantastic food awesome service. 10/10 from me“

“What an amazing place to have breakfast we both had the big breakfast’s one with waffles and I had the French toast! Utterly delicious and throughly recommend a visit. We are on holiday from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 so glad I found this place and we will be back with our children next year.“

“After looking at reviews I expected more. No carnivore starter options. Had to settle for a 10 ounce steak as an appetizer and another for a main. Well prepared but hardly sufficient for a grown man. Partner had the pressed chicken that was dry. If they catered for meat eaters by having a carnivore appetizer and more substantial steak I'd return. Service and ambiance very nice.“

“Amazing food, Sal’s never disappoints. Been coming for years to this black-owned halal restaurant, after my dad first introduced me, and I have never had a bad experience. Sal and Mohamed are very sweet and helpful — will always be a local staple!“

“This is one of those hidden gems that only locals know about. I was looking for a diner style place to eat, and this came up. And we decided to give it a try and boy, was I not disappointed. It definitely brings you back to like the nineties with the décor and style. However, the service and the food were on point. Our food and our service were fast and delicious.“
