Wed NajjarSeptember 12, 2015one of the best places to start your morning. variety of food is available. coffee refill the whole time. the tables are small so it's better to come alone or with a friend.
PressRedMay 30, 2014Had an enjoyable breakfast, the French bread and my guest had the eggs Benedict. Both recommended. Was busy, with lots of locals but that all added to the atmosphere.
The Corcoran GroupFebruary 11, 2011Really great NYC diner that treats you extremely well. Go for the Red Flame Omelette – ask for a side of grits, they know how to cook them.
Armand AlikajAugust 12, 2013very clean and up to date diner-bison de luxe burger was tasty-the greek waitress was a bit rough around the edges...
Lani AikoJanuary 7, 2018Lox omelette was super tasty. Clean diner, friendly staff, casual dining in Manhattan.
Nathan WrightDecember 24, 2014Don't let the line at peak times scare you off - this diner is very efficient. Great for a quick breakfast or brunch.
Haya Al DossaryAugust 24, 2015Very fast service, good breakfast food, good coffee for a diner, would come again
Marisa RubinNovember 24, 2013I enjoyed having the Chocolate Mouse Cake with Hot Chocolate with Whipped Cream!
Lesley OCGJune 28, 2016Quick service, open until 11:30 so when staying at the Algonquin next door, this was quite handy!
Jon MooreMay 26, 2019Really good food and closely located to Times Square but without the high prices 🥓 🍳
MattJune 16, 2013Huge amounts of food for a low price (especially near Times Square). Chicken Pita was delicious.
Kornelija MaceviciuteOctober 12, 2016Breakfast menu - all day! Exactly what we looked for in the afternoon on a workday.
Matty CitoJanuary 14, 2015I can't believe I missed this diner for years. Was ok. Service was great. Midtown prices
Best diner I've ever found in NYC. Come here all the time. Super fast, great food. Definitely go for breakfast sometime!
Clayton McLaughlinOctober 11, 2014If you're looking for a quick meal that's not crappy fast food, this is your place. If you're looking to sit down & socialize, not so much. They turn tables like mad here & you will feel rushed
Jillana BJune 11, 2014Service is surprisingly fast even at noon. The noodles in my chicken soup were over cooked, but my Greek chicken wrap tasted fresh and the place seemed clean.
Healthy McFitOctober 20, 2013Fast service, within minutes of ordering, my meal was ready. Good coffee.
Guilherme ChapiewskiJune 24, 2011If you are on a diet, go for the Green Chicken Wrap with salad. Good choice and very few calories.
Lucy GoldsteinMay 10, 2014We had a waitress so dumb it was not to be believed. Told me there wasn't any of what I wanted but didn't give me a new menu, and then took my plate while I was actively still eating. Short brunette.- iAlexJanuary 13, 2012Excellent service, really good breakfast. A place to be if you staying/working locally!
- Great breakfast, fast service and good value for the money
It's strangely limited for a diner, but kind of the only classic style diner in the area.- 2 eggs Sunny side-up, bacon, toast, land fresh orange juice
Natalia GorevaMay 27, 2013So surprised this place has high score, just had brunch here and it was so terrible! Eggs Benedict was a disaster, omelette was flat, gray and tasteless. Left after one bite of this crap. Don't come.
Natasha BarriosDecember 24, 2013Did not love the service... Felt like they didn't want to work at all. But we got our food pretty fast.
Nana HjeltDecember 31, 2010Super fast and Good service. Not to mention Good brekkie, lunch, night snack
