“Last night was the first time we went to this diner, and we were impressed. The quality of food is on the different level from other diners. The size of burgers is enormous. Very friendly staff, especially Alfredo, who served our table. 24/7 access is another important perk. Definitely coming back next week!“

“My absolute favorite place in New York. Luckily, Mike’s Coffee Shop survived the pandemic and is still as heartwarming a place as ever.
Simply a nice, original shop where you can have a good breakfast, be served by nice people and enjoy a perfect breakfast without any big fuss for little money.

Thank you for the years of quality at the best level.

Vegetarian options: There are many egg dishes, fries and pancakes that make many vegetarians' hearts beat faster.“

“Great cozy breakfast place in Brooklyn. Food is always great, and the service is always friendly and warm. The atmosphere can be a bit crowded, but is otherwise welcoming and enjoyable. Highly recommend you stop by for a decently priced and delicious breakfast.“

“I had breakfast (Corn beef hash well done with sunny side eggs well done on the bottom and wheat toast) there 2 weeks ago and it was sooooo good. Their menu list is long! Mexican owners and very nice!“

“Great food great service. Best show on broadway.“

“The scrambled eggs are ??? Choose this with Plato’s plate or on the avocado toast. They give you a generous serving of the salad. Visited twice so far on Sundays and both times the place was clean and service was good. Go early to avoid the wait.“

“Came here because it had good reviews, it sure did live up to every expectation.
Walking into the restaurant, nice atmosphere, bar, seating, counter, seating, and tables available, you get to pick where you sit. Servers were attentive and walking around, just in case you needed more water or to clear your plate.
My day, and I got a nice selection of food, and totally enjoyed every bike. Great flavor, not too much spice. We got crabcakes to start, eggs Benedict, he got tacos, I got a Greek omelette, but we shared. Not a lot of diners do fresh squeezed, orange juice, so I was pretty impressed even by that.
Atmosphere for Brunch was very inviting, their specialty is a seafood pasta which I’ll definitely be going back for. And this place wasn’t too pricy, which is definitely a pro.
Staff is also multilingual, so if you’re going here with friends, like my date, they can communicate other than in English“

“It looks like a greasy spoon sort of diner cafe. A neighborhood place. The meatloaf was good. The iced coffee was ok. The service was impeccable. It looks a little rundown but you don't go there for ambiance. I will return to try something else.“

“I am a Former NYER, I moved away 10 years ago but come back regularly and this is my spot for breakfast especially for over 20 years! Great food, prices and good service! Definitely recommend!“

“Cute little diner on Steinway. The menu’s not as large as many NYC diners but the quality of food makes up for that. They were very good about dealing with some requests for my 4 year old son. I’ll probably come back because it’s close to home.“

“First day in NY and found this little gem. All 3 of us had salads and they were unbelievably good. Fantastic place to visit xx“

“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.“

“Miriam was excellent. Super attentive and hospitable.“

“An incredible breakfast! Hot coffee, real maple syrup, delicious sausage and eggs and toast done to perfection. The wait staff were friendly and attentive and the other patrons were all enjoying their food as well, nice level of buzz and chatter but not too loud. Perfect place to start your day. Beautiful photos from a local artist above the counter. Love the seasonal decor for Halloween.“

“I went to this diner, and I had the Norwegian salmon medium rare with a couple of sides, and it was sooooo delicious. Their original cappuccino was also tasty; the coffee they use was very smooth. Anna was just wonderful. She was friendly, professional and so nice serving us. Thank you so much. Definitely coming back!“

“I order delivery and pickup from this place often. It’s a simple little diner with excellent food and service. And for manhattan I’d say the prices are pretty decent. Everyone is always so nice and gets my orders right every time. They also make homemade salsa, if you ask nicely they might serve you some.“

“Delicious huge sandwiches. Two of us ordered two sandwiches (cod, and eggplant parm We had lunch and dinner. Both were delicious. The service was excellent as well. The atmosphere was very sparse. It’s definitely a place to eat a good inexpensive meal, it’s not a place to go for ambiance. I definitely would recommend stopping by, but bring your appetite.“

“The Best Diner Family Run! People are so lovely! Food is Great! Very Clean!“

“their pastrami on rye, of course. But you have to stick to your guns and order just 1 and share it with a date when a waitress will recommend or insist you order two. One order is enough for two really“

“A cozy family run cafe with welcoming and friendly staff, their food is AMAZING and cooked with so much love! You CANNOT find any other spot that can beat their prices, that’s forsure!! Their breakfast is delicious - their French toast is a must have btw- and their burgers are great as well as the wraps, food is always served hot and quickly. As for delivery, they always exceed expectations because the food is always earlier than the suggested time and the drivers are very kind and friendly! Definitely recommend visiting, you won’t regret it!! They also have the best servers - Cleo and Aly are the absolute BEST ?“

“Ever since I was little, I would go to this restaurant so many times. I have so many fond memories. Even eating it today, it brings back memories of when my mom would take me and my siblings to eat there for dinner. At the time, they would close much later than they do now. Thankfully, I'm already walking home by 2 pm, and since I live close by, the delivery was nice and fast. The food is always delicious, generously well priced, and the customer service is always really nice. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger that came with fries, along with an extra side of onion rings. That came up to $20 on the dot, and with the portions they serve, I was more than happy with that price. I have, and I will continue to go to this amazing restaurant. I highly recommend it if you're in the area.“

“Loooove this place! Always my go to for breakfast I live right around the corner and so happy about it. The pancakes are the best, but everything else is great too. Service is fast and easy. Usually crowded because it’s so good but never had to wait more than 5 mins for a seat, or i just sit at the counter.“

“man they was great I would definitely be back seriously shucks breakfast links was great and fat lol wife and family enjoyed ever in NYC go by there tell them big daddy sent you lol“

“The staff at Old Johns were welcoming and efficient even though we unfortunately arrived late. The service was quick and helpful by Evelyn , with close attention paid to allergies which was really nice to see. The breakfast burrito was amazing, slightly spicy with crispy potatoes on the side, plus a very fresh
OJ. Couldn't of had a better start to our day.“

“Found Legends because we were coming from out of state to Jets game and taking local train to stadium from Secaucus. Very friendly staff and terrific home fries!“

“This is one of those classic diners you hope never goes away but are always afraid they're gonna get priced out. They are dirt cheap and they deliver exactly what you'd expect out of a diner. Just get your basics and enjoy a simple life for a moment.“

“Don’t be fooled by the 4 star rating here, that’s probably a hangover from the previous owner. This diner is a 5 that does everything you want a diner to do perfectly.

The folks that took over a couple of years ago did the perfect amount of updating. Made sure all the food was excellent and added a legit Tex-Mex section to the menu without going full hipster and jacking up the prices.

I feel confident ordering anything off this menu, I’ve never been disappointed.

Parking: Don’t drive in NYC if you have the choice.“
