Honestly this place it’s special because of Evelyn she did a great job. The food was great and she guide us tans was execelent. Something not so easy to Finn’s in NYC
We came to New York for a few days and had an amazing Brunch at Old John’s Diner. The coffee (an important factor!) was amazing, and the food delicious! Also the decoration is very beautiful. We were assisted by Evelyn, and she was amazing! If you go definitely ask for her service, and have some of the delicious pancakes!
For a diner, this is a 5 star diner. It is more expensive than the classic diner but you expect it as it has been improved. Avocado toast is excellent.

Old John's Luncheonette offers a cozy dining experience with its boxcar-style seating and air-conditioned private space. The friendly staff provides prompt and attentive service, ensuring a warm atmosphere for customers. The menu features classic American diner dishes like eggs, bacon, and toast, along with fresh sandwiches and delicious entrees. Customers particularly enjoy the delectable desserts, especially the apple pie and the Dark Chocolate Ice Cream, which is a must-try. Some reviews note the Strawberry Shortcake, although there were mentions of a super hard biscuit. The Steak Frites is well-cooked, with crispy fries and a great portion size, while the salsa verde is tasty despite being slightly liquidy. The restaurant also has a nice selection of cocktails that put a fun twist on classics. The decor has been praised for its clean, classic vibe, complemented by a classic 80s music playlist. While the decor could use some updating, the place offers good value with its average prices for the New York area. Making reservations is suggested to avoid wait times, especially during busy hours.
