The Mansion is a charming, retro-feel diner in New York City that has been an institution since 1945. The atmosphere is 5-star, with Sinatra playing in the background and a cozy, intimate feel. The staff is polite and kind, with recent reviews highlighting the thoughtfulness of the waitstaff, particularly Alex, who pays attention to small details and checks in with customers frequently. The food offerings include a delicious split pea soup, cinnamon donuts, and classic breakfast dishes like the veggie omelette with sourdough toast and hash browns. While the veggie omelette was noted as good but not fluffy, the hash browns received praise for their crunchy areas. Although there could be more vegan or vegetarian options, most diners agree that it’s possible to enjoy vegetarian selections by simply ordering without meat. The diner features plenty of outdoor and indoor seating, with two sections for indoor dining. Accessibility is considered, with the first level and outdoor seating being wheelchair friendly, although the bathrooms are up a few steps. The Mansion remains a beloved spot for solo diners, couples, and families, maintaining its charm over the years despite some comments about pricing and food quality. The individual trash bins on each table are also appreciated for their cute and useful design.
