My family and I have been going here for longest and I have never in my life would imagine I would be writing this review so low. Today my sister had decided to get something to eat here after a long day at work and was waiting for her food to be done. Until she heard an employee lady calling her “gordisima” that is very disrespectful , is this how they treat their customers now.. by Body shaming. I’m in disbelief because this has never ever happened and I want to add on my sister is a regular customer there so they know her. I don’t know if that lady was having a bad day that she to say some comments to her is so crazy. So disrespectful. She will be never going there again , it’s overpriced anyways. They lost a loyal customer.
The lady that works there is very nice. I just dont like how her boss talks to her infront of customers. He seems very rude to her . But besides that I like the food. Always on oint and the waitress is very polite .
Great service and nachos
Honestly the best restaurant we went to in NYC. So good we went back multiple times. In particular the breakfast and Mexican food are out of this world! Also some of the best homemade hot sauces I have ever tried.
Order for delivery the delivery guy is very nice to me sometimes I order for pick up, but mostly I eat their breakfast. It’s so good.

Ordered the pita platter. The fries were perfect. The gyro was tasty. The service was attentive. What more could you ask for for less than $20?
Kid-friendliness: Had a table full of kids. They were welcomed and found food they loved.

I thoroughly enjoyed this lightly spicy Mexican omelette & rather decent black coffee. Even better w/ a few dashes of ketchup, hot sauce, salt, & pepper. I got good service, but I'm probably just a single-time visitor since I don't live in the area; sorry to hear about others' horror stories.

This place should be shut down with their unsanitary practices, you would think after I wrote my first review they would atleast take it into consideration, wrong! I purchased a meal that on their menu is $8 and about $7 any other place they charge me almost $13 on my card, how does that make any sense, they deliberate the price amongst themselves very sneaky, and rude to their employees some guy belittled a waitress behind the counter, and the food is not worth the money hijacking practices, careful! Take a look at all the recent reviews everyone mentions the same behavior and slick practices of the owners at this place PURCHASE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

The aura of this establishment has declined significantly since about 2019. Year by year the customer service, the taste of the food and the etiquette have all nearly vanished. I used to eat here every weekend and never felt the salutations of a “regular”. The boss always has an attitude, doesn’t have any regard for the way he speaks to people, and it transcends onto all the other workers over the course of the day. Even when he tries to cover it up he’s angry. Also, one could eat the same meal here 4 days out of the week and it’s almost guaranteed your meal will never be the same price. On the menu, all prices have shot up despairingly and they still find a way somehow to tax an extra dollar or two on top of it all. I mean how is a paper thin watered down pancake, 2 eggs, bacon n toast $13 ?!?! The menu will tell you a cheeseburger is $6 or $7 and for some reason the total comes to $9.73. They do this calculation to tax you for their restaurant before entering the new price into the machine that’s gonna tax you AGAIN. I’m over that whole wave also. Then, they have the nerve to hand you a pen with a receipt for tip…. I ought to put a negative number down fooling with these folks. What am I tipping for, the attitude you gave or the fact that Im dining in but still getting up and grabbing my own drink? Watch the lady with the big eyes, she will try to charge you for things you didn’t order and the condescending boss will go right along with. Over the years the only thing still carrying this establishment is the smoothie bar. That never misses. But even those were around $5 and $6 dollars respectively (M/L) about 3 years ago. I think the nostalgia of this place once being so preferable is what makes it daunting now. People get tired

Disgusting. I would rate this a 0 if I could. I saw a UPS delivery man ask if he could use the restroom and this despicable cafe told him he had to buy something or pay 2$. To use their bathroom! How dare you treat your essential workers like that! Disgraceful!!!! I will NEVER spend a cent here again! SHAME ON YOU!!!!
I specifically asked for BACON. Instead, I got beef bacon they really think people can't distinguish between the two SMH, not ordering here no more...

I've been buying breakfast here for years, the food is always sensational, the service and atmosphere is superb.
