They’re selling days-week old cake slices trying to pass them off as “fresh”; Ordered from here at 11am only to receive a dry and semi-hard cake that was evidently stale, I called to rectify the situation only to constantly be told the cakes are “fresh” and asked “well what do you want me to do about it?”. This was a lesson learned and I won’t be spending here again, if they’re lying about the freshness of their desserts I can only imagine the food and what the kitchen actually looks like.
This is the quintessential NYC diner! We went on Christmas day for a snack during a frozen walk on the UWS. Lovely, friendly people and Wow, the food! We had 3 different kinds of soup, all fantastic. I had the split pea and it was delicious. The loaded potato skins were so good and a reminder of why people love loaded potato skins that are not just warmed up in a microwave. Go there!!

The prices for the portions are phenomenal. The atmosphere was great and welcoming, and the lady in the front was a sweetheart and even gave us free baklava and melomakarona. For it being in the city, it feels like I’m in Queens with how calm the environment was. 10/10, would recommend to anyone!

The service was amazing. Kelly was our server. Couldn't be more friendly and attentive. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Coffee was a bottomless cup. I'm wired! Waited for a friend who was a bit late. The staff were patient and kind. NY diners are the best 👌

It opens 7am on Saturday, earlier than most other diners in Manhattan. We ordered Western Omelett and Egg Benedict and Steak Egg. Eggs were fresh and the portion was huge. The waiter was friendly and attentive.

The server was a very nice girl, very helpful. Not complains about the service.
The burger ??? This photo speaks for itself. The Patties were gross. It was greasy and it didn’t have not a single milligram of salt. Hire a new chef.

Always extremely fast and kid friendly. The guy in front (I think his name was Jimmy) was handling a busy Sunday crowd but still managed to make everything work well.

The gluten free pancakes were bad. I’d try something else tho next time.

Solid upscale diner with great service and a relaxing setting. Came here after a morning at the museum. Two thumbs up from my kiddo on the kids menu. The salmon burger was good but not great. That’s all right it was good enough. I’d try something else next time. Service was perfect.

i'm sorry, the food is really bad lol. I have gone twice and everyone i know who has gone (4 different people) have said that their meals were also terrible. Not sure why it's rated so highly. I am not trying to be mean - maybe the chefs could try their food and tweak it a bit!
For reference: cold, frozen, uncooked potatoes, cold, yucky penne alla vodka, rubbery stretchy cheese in omelettes, but fine pancakes and delicious homemade jam!
