Excellent breakfast, superb service! We were quickly seated in a by Emily, a very gracious cashier who made us feel quite at home. Humberto and a gentleman who's name I did not get were very attentive. Service was fast and our breakfast was delicious. We plan to return before leaving Midtown.

What a place to eat! The portions are fantastic! Had the chicken and rice and saved half the plate so I could have more later! One of the best ruebens my husband has ever had. Cheeseburgers were nice and juicy and mac n cheese was homemade and I wish I could duplicate it. Def worth a stop. Service was fast and workers were friendly!

In an area with no shortage of breakfast spots this unassuming location on 8th opens into a nice diner with a vibe from decades ago. Very clean and welcoming with wonderful lighting and decor. The menu is what one expects from a diner. Service is wonderful.

My favorite restaurant in the entire world. I come here every single time I go to the city. There is never a wait to sit, waiters come with water and help you immediately. You get your food within 10 minutes. Have never had any issues. Staff is extremely friendly. I dream about the food at night. If I lived closer I would come every single week. Mac n cheese is the best I've ever tasted. Also the building itself is very quiet, nice decor and a good date spot! Great to go before a show as it's right near theatres. Food is not expensive for the city, and the portions are very big! Always have leftovers. 100000% recommend this place to everyone ik when someome says they are going in the city.

Amazing place to eat, good environment and customer service. We got the Mac and cheese appetizer, the Grilled Hanger Steak and the Chicken Gyro platter. The onion soup is amazing and the caesar salad as well. Very big portions.

We were staying across the street and we stopped in after a long day of sight seeing. The place has a cool 70's decor and has a true old time diner feel to it. The kids ordered the waffle and I got the BBQ bacon cheeseburger. Everyone was happy with their food - and everyone loved my fries! Overall it was a great experience and I'd recommend you stop by if you need a quick diner type experience while midtown NYC.

Stopped here for brunch and was seated within 10 minutes. Able to order breakfast and lunch all day. We ordered a mixture and pricing was not bad for our order. Emiadio was our waiter and he was absolutely fantastic. He memorized our order and remained attentive the entire time. Bus boy was also fantastic. Options for indoor or outdoor dinning. We ate inside. Burger was delicious, pancakes huge and wings were tasty too. Fries with gravy were just ok - should have gotten the fries plain. No complaints. Food was great!

Dinnertime-quick service. Staff was very friendly. Food came out quickly and correct. Portions are huge! My 16 yr old son ordered the Greek Chicken Wrap and couldn't finish it. The Mac n cheese is home made. My wife really enjoyed the Rueben. My BLT was delicious!

Staff was amazing. Probably the best avocado toast that I’ve ever had.

This place was absolutely fantastic. We went here after a day out in New York, and we were thoroughly impressed. Firstly, the staff are super friendly and served us quickly. The food also arrived promptly and the meal sizes were large and absolutely delicious. I’d recommend the steak sandwich in particular. The place generally has a nice vibe too. The only criticism is that they didn’t have Coke Zero and some of the cushioned seat areas are a little tight, so you may want to avoid those if you’re tall! However, overall this place was excellent and I’d definitely come back!

Cozy diner that’s pretty close to port authority. I got the avocado toast and it’s one of the best I’ve ever had! It was around $15, not too affordable but worth every penny. I would definitely visit again! 4.5/5 stars from me!

We just went in there randomly and we were lucky to get a seat! They served us so incredibly fast, faster than any other restaurant in New York. The stuffed french toast was amazing!

I'm town visiting, wasn't sure what to expect. Definitely exceeded expectations. Wonderful experience. Wonderful staff, very friendly and attentive. Food was great. Huge portions. Definitely will visit again if I come back to New York.

This place was amazing, it truly blew us away on many levels. First, the food was very good, even the coffee, and especially the french fries. Second, the service was amazingly fast, like nothing I've ever seen... literally our food was on the table 2 minutes after ordering, like they were reading our minds. And it wasn't just a one-time thing, we ate here 3 straight days during our visit to Manhattan, with super fast service every day. Finally, the staff was super friendly, especially Javier, Alex, and Steve. They made us feel like we were the only ones there, yet I saw them treating other tables exactly the same way. If you're reading this don't hesitate to pick Times Square Diner & Grill to eat!

Burger way better than I predicted! Go for the burger! The wrap and the fries are pretty good too. (Skip the shake though) Best of all is the good customer service! We’ll be back after our next Broadway show again (we did go back, many times! see second pic of a burger).

Order the overloaded breakfast and usual, and requested for extra crisp bacon. The bacon was really good, so crispy and tasty! potato's on the other hand was ok, toast and sunny side were good. The French toast has taste of cinnamon. I really love the ambience and the service staff there. They are friendly and make sure you are in good hands.

Went there about 10 minutes after they opened on a Sunday before our flight home. The service was insanely good! People were ON refills like I've never seen before! I had Nutella / banana / Graham cracker French toast, and my wife had this customized HUGE omelet. This was the best breakfast we had on our trip by a significant margin. The service was top notch and the coffee was DANG good for just being regular coffee! Can not praise this place enough! Super close to our hotel, too, and if we had discovered it before the day we left, we would have went here for breakfast each day, no doubt!

Can I tell you how personable the staff is here? From the time we sat down, to the time my family and myself left, the customer service was 100%. The food was fresh, delicious and came out hot and quickly. Many thanks to Nicki and her staff for such an inviting atmosphere. If you find yourself in the area, stop by. You won’t regret it.

Went before seeing Wicked and was shocked how speedy service was considering it is right around the corner from the theater. We were seated immediately. Our waiter was so courteous and attentive. The food was delicious. We had the chicken fingers appetizer and meatballs and spaghetti and the gyro platter for the meal. Both come with a starter salad. All the portions were HUGE and everything was delicious. Would definitely return next time I head to the theater.

Food was great service even better. Si habla español! This was our first place we ate at in NYC I am from Texas and it was great! Would definitely recommend. Has a large menu variety of different options for everyone. Little on the pricy side but portion size makes it worth it.

We literally stumbled upon this gem of a restaurant when looking for a place to grab a quick breakfast! The tables were full so we sat at the counter, what an unexpected treat that was. Saul took fabulous care of us ensuring we wanted for nothing. Definitely try this spot for the best coffee and anything else your heart desires ❤️.

In town for the weekend with My kids, sister & nephew. Looking for a great place to eat brunch in NYC before heading home. We Google breakfast in times square and this is what pops up. Yes I have to tell background story! We're from BMORE, known for good food! When I say the food was So Damn good, BABY!! HANDS DOWN, SOME GOOD FOOD!! The service was A1! They were attentive to our needs. Never let our beverages get too low. The kids loved their food. Definitely A Must Go-To✨ Try them out for yourself, you will not be disappointed!

Great selection, fast service and delicious food. We couldn't have been happier with our breakfast.

Just had excellent meal! Mac n Cheese came hot super hot and creamy. Bananna Blast (stuffed French toast) was my daughters favorite down to the last bite! Best desserts! Our favorite was the chocolate brownie :) We will be back!!

We came here on a Friday evening and was seated right away and once we placed our orders (which the servers memorized (very impressed)) the food was hot and came out very quickly. We got burgers, fries, a bagel, an omelette and a steak sandwich and everyone loved their food! The French fries were some of the best I’ve had out in a long time! Definitely worth getting them as a side! Additionally, all the employees were so nice and the vibe was also nice! Great place to grab a bite to eat near Times Square!

Don’t be discouraged about a line. My wife and I were seated very quickly. Beware, the servings are enormous. We had the roast turkey dinner with side salad. We divided it in half and still took a full portion home. Delicious. Super pleasant staff. Professional and attentive.

We did an overnight to see Xmas lights in Time Square. I happened to stumble across this place due to the accessibility and convenience to the port authority. It is a certified winner … highly recommend. Prompt and courteous service. The food was very fresh and flavorful.

I have been here a few times over the years. This is a consistently good diner. The food is of a high quality and, for Midtown, the prices are quite reasonable. I enjoyed the bacon-wrapped meatloaf and macaroni & cheese. Burgers, fries, and soups are solid as well.

While on vacation, my son and I were looking for a place to have dinner. We happen to cross the Times Square diner. It did not seem to be very crowded when we first walked in. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and willing to explain different menu items to you. We decided to try one of the make your own burgers and the beef gyro. They turned out to be two excellent options. The food is just delicious. Prices are a little high since this is a touristy area but it is well worth it. You can also rest for a few moments in between shopping everywhere else out there in times square.

Ordered scrambled eggs and asked them to substitute fruit for the potatoes and toast - not only did they do this they gave me a large bowl of ripe strawberries and blueberries! Sweet and delicious. The eggs were scrambled fresh and moist. The coffee was particularly flavorful and fresh too. Fast service and frequent coffee refills. Let me sit as long as I wanted. Very pleasant. Good value for a theater district diner.

Casual atmosphere with superb service. The process are a but high but that is easily offset by the friendly and attentive service. I had the BBQ burger which had bacon and caramelized oniservice. Downside was that the burger doesnt come woth anything so that's additional to get fries or another side. It was phenomenal but cost about $18. All in all this is a great spot with the highest quality and servive.

+1

Very good pancakes and drinks. The price is a little bit high for a breakfast (around $40 for pancakes, caramel latte and orange juice), the waiters were very nice.

A very welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere where all the staff were very kind and helpful (besides English, they all speak Spanish). In fact, March 4th was my birthday and I received a surprise from the restaurant staff. I had breakfast there during my 8 days in NYC and I recommend it without hesitation!

Customer service was excellent, fast, top notch, food was decent. I felt very comfortable

The food came out soooo quick and it was amazing the avocado toast was HANDS DOWN The BEST I have ever had

Is there anything better than an old-school NYC diner? The Times Square Diner is the best diner in the area. I had the Florentine omelet (spinach & feta); my friend had their burger - we were both very happy!

I just found this place while walking around Times Square. The staff are very friendly upon arrival, wait time wasn’t bad. I wish I took pictures but I ordered the steak & eggs with freshly squeezed orange juice and everything came out at a perfect time. Food was really tasty. I would come back here for sure to try other things on the menu.

Visited here twice, once in 2022 and once in 2025. Both visits service had been attentive and friendly. I had the pancakes with bacon, and a coffee. Good food.

Quick service and even better food! We said we had somewhere to be and that food was out within 10 minutes of us ordering. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Most places with service this quick lack in food quality but this place does not. I had the small mac and cheese and it was delicious and massive!

Excellent brunch spot! Great eggs Benny and the kiddos loved the strawberry Nutella pancakes. The fresh squeezed orange and lemonade was a plus. We had very friendly, efficient service. Plus the vibe and decor is cool with a comfortable art deco feel.

We needed a big breakfast before driving home and this seemed like a good place to try based upon the ratings. We were very satisfied with our choice! It's not very big (I'm guessing ~60 patrons can eat at one time) and reminds you of a diner from the 70s with booths and seats at the counter. The food was freshly prepared and the portions were huge! The pancakes were fluffy, poached eggs perfectly done, home fries that had great flavor, soft French toast, and homemade spicy sausage! 😋 The staff were very friendly and attentive. I will say the prices were a bit higher than I expected (with a generous tip breakfast for 3 was $100), but I definitely feel we got our money's worth!

Had a little bit of time before my matinee and decided to grab a quick lunch. Found this diner and decided to check it out. I sat right at the counter and was seated immediately. The staff were super friendly and attentive. After looking at the menu I decided to go with a BLT and of course a coffee lol The coffee was pretty average, not good enough to make me want a second cup and perhaps a little pricey at almost $4, but I'm a caffeine junkie. The BLT was fantastic. It was my first time trying this sandwich with rye bread and that might be my new go-to. The flavors were fantastic. The tomatoes were super fresh. The bacon was perfectly crispy and the lettuce was great. Service was out of this world, everyone was friendly and I love that there was a window into the kitchen so that you could see the chef cooking in the back. Typical diner feel, which was really great. 100% I would go back here.

We were in NY to celebrate my daughter's 14th birthday. We enjoyed eating at the Diner enough that we went back a second time of the three mornings we were in town. The food is exactly what you'd expect (we all loved it) and the service was super fast and efficient. The staff paid attention to drinks and were always very friendly.

Found this diner on Google Maps. It is around the corner from where we were staying. Great food, cozy place. The hamburger with cheddar cheese was great tasting, thick patty, and great fries. Grilled salmon with esperagus and white rice was great. Onion soup(not pictured) tasted great.

When I came in, I was expecting moderate customer service and food, but was met with the exact opposite. The service was exceptional, the food was fantastic, and overall the experience was very enjoyable. Somebody came to take my order very quickly and had a pleasant attitude. After ordering, I only waited five minutes for my meal to arrive. Staff often checked in and asked if there was anything I needed. This diner was above average, and I would recommend to anybody in the area.

The menu ranges from hearty breakfast options to burgers and desserts. We had breakfast here, and it was the best meal of our trip. Absolutely amazing! Very flavorful. The fruit was mouthwatering and very fresh. The staff exemplifies exceptional hospitality. Attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, they make you feel right at home. They are prompt with orders and go the extra mile to ensure your dining experience is seamless. With its delightful atmosphere, exquisite cuisine, and top-notch service, it stands as a beacon of culinary excellence in the heart of New York City. It's only a short walk from the center of Times Square.

We were looking for a diner serving good (late) breakfast. Time Square diner was recommended. A quaint little diner with satisfying aesthetic. We are so thankful for the experience! The food was fantastic. Two people from our group ordered their delicious Eggs Benedict. We were all more than satisfied with our meals. Steve was kind and attentive and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. If we lived here full time the Time Square diner would be a regular.

Perfect way to start the day is a decent breakfast. This place did that with quality. Great welcoming with great service. Poached Eggs was spot on and the spicy sausage Benedict was a great choice to have. Recommended

Awesome place. Huge breakfast and lots of coffee. Friendly and efficient service. And very good value for money. Highly recommended if you have lots of walking ahead of you!

Amazing food ! Came here before a wicked show because of the great reviews I read on line . Did NOT disappoint . Everything that hit our 5 person table was delicious . Staff were very attentive and service was quick. Will definitely be back !

Very very friendly and funny staff!!! They smile,they sing,they chat with you... The food:i had the chicken gyro platter... Perfect,fresch greek salad...tender chicken....served in a bread...with huge Fries....perfect dinner!Thank you!

Matt Enright

Great food, great atmosphere, and really fast service! We had a large party of 8 and needed to break up into 2 separate tables that were not near each other because it was peak hours and it was crowded. However, when a table was open near my table, the hostess remembered we all came together and she moved my other group of 4 to the table next to us, so we could be all together! The wait staff were attentive, friendly, and continued to check on us frequently throughout our meal. We all loved our food and we highly recommend this restaurant!

Amy Marshall

We have eaten at several places during our trip to NYC, including meals that have been quite expensive, but this one is by far the very best meal and experience we have had. Loved the breakfast! Excellent pancakes, eggs, breakfast burrito, and bacon was cooked perfectly. PLUS, the music was a nice low volume. Even though the restaurant is very full, the volume is still quite pleasant and we can hear ourselves! It is wonderful. We will definitely be back!!

Steven

Great place for brekky. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Food portions were generous. The table we had was a tiny bit too cramped but the food and lovely staff made it worth visiting.

Santiago Camino

Quaint little dinner close to Times Square. They were very welcoming. I ordered the beef gyro and a side of mac & cheese. Food was delicious, staff were very nice and accommodating. Definitely recommend!

This diner is a must go to place to eat if you are in Manhattan. We had the Italian omelette with breakfast potatoes and the most delicious toast you could wish for. The food was amazing, hot and tasty. The staff, I think it was Joe and others, were attentive, professional and friendly. Would highly recommend to all that visit Manhattan.

Josué Velasteguí

Good burger cook as asked 🫶🏼 lots of fries ☺️ the coleslaw could be slightly bigger.. but still really good.. cozy seats cold beer.. what Else a man could ask..

Saosun Chi

We went here after the disappointing experience, at Lillys, and it was good. The staff was very attentive, and the food was generous and tasty. My friend had a nut allergy, and the waiter assured her that most things didn't contain nuts, but he would tell the chef anyway. Most importantly, the music was at a good volume because we could talk without shouting. I had the NY Benedict and it was good but big! This is great problem to have when you're starving. My only complaint is that I had no room for dessert.

Stacy Lewis

Great staff and food. The waiter was personable and made us feel like we were at a diner at home. Portions are enough for two people.

Hannah Agee

My family and I ate breakfast here and we thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. The atmosphere is beautiful, the wait staff was super friendly, the food came out very quickly and the portion sizes were plentiful. We will definitely be back next time we are in NYC!

Julio Zepet

From the moment you enter, you feel a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The attention of the staff is impeccable: always friendly, attentive and with a smile. The food is simply spectacular; each dish is prepared with dedication and served with a presentation that instantly whets the appetite. The flavors are authentic and balanced, making each bite a memorable experience. Without a doubt, a place to return to again and again, either for a special dinner or to enjoy a good meal in company

Jo Nelson

My wife and I had an incredible breakfast experience at Times Square Diner & Grill. From the moment we walked in, the service was timely and welcoming. Our food came out quickly and was cooked to absolute perfection—honestly, we were blown away by the quality, especially considering how affordable everything was. I ordered the walnut cheese-stuffed French toast along with eggs, potatoes, and sausage—every bite was rich, flavorful, and satisfying. My wife went for a bowl of oatmeal topped with seasonal fruit, which was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully presented. The drinks were just as impressive—the cappuccino and hot chocolate were both excellent, perfectly balanced and comforting. If you’re in the area and want a delicious, reasonably priced meal with great service, this spot is a must. Highly recommended!

Came here for brunch today. Food and service more than exceeded expectations but you do pay for it. It is expensive but just need to remind yourself It’s New York City so nothing is cheap here. The best value for money here is the coffee! Free refills! If you like pancakes, you’ll love them here! Yummy! Portions are huge so you won’t go hungry later after a feed here.

Exactly what you want in a diner. The staff is fast, efficient, and extremely attentive. We ordered two breakfast and two dinner meals the first time, and four breakfast meals the second while the place was pretty full and had our food in less than 10 minutes. Food is absolutely what you would expect from a quality diner. Burgers were cooked to requested temp, fries are delicious, portions are generous but not overwhelming on most plates. They have a lot of coffee options (lattes and specialty drinks) and breakfast is served all day. Their house salsa is very good. Absolutely recommended.

Very attentive staff although it wasn't as busy as expected at the time. Food was ok. The sauerkraut could have been squeezed out a bit more, the bottom of the reuben was soggy. It's a good thing the bread was toasted. Portion sizes were good.

Times Square Diner & Grill, located in the heart of New York City, offers a classic American diner experience. The menu is extensive, featuring everything from hearty breakfasts to classic diner favorites like burgers, sandwiches, and milkshakes. The food is consistently good, with large portions and reasonable prices for the area. The service is friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is casual and welcoming. It’s a great spot for a quick, satisfying meal after a day of exploring Times Square. A solid choice for comfort food in a prime location!

The food was good and generous, the service at the table was friendly. I would have given it 5 stars if not the girl at the entrance which was rude! And unpleasant for no reason. You hate your job/ hate people? Then leave. I really thought of going from there bc of that, but there was another girl, shorter with a white shirt (the other one wear black) that was nice. Too bad that she is ruine the score for this place.

Hearty good food and fast friendly service. The corn beef hash was full of flavor and crispy crunch. Plain egg and cheese sandwich came in a large portion and nicer bread than I thought we would get for the price. The atmosphere is nice and cozy. Great people watching.

I have been here for the brunch on a Sunday and it was a long waiting line, when I reached there. Thankfully I was alone, and so managed to grab a place without waiting. I ordered a glass of orange juice which was good but super super expensive ! They even did not ask refill either. The food was two eggs and potato and sausages. The food was yum, just lack of salt ! The potato ( like hash brown) was super tasty ( when I added some salt to it by myself ). The place was super busy and the service was fast.

Good restaurant with a nostalgia atmosphere. Service was good during a busy time. We had an omelet with home fries and chocolate chip pancakes. Food tasted good, but price was on the high side. Would recommend, but not for those on a budget. 👍🏼

Ate breakfast and lunch there. Both meals were very good and the service was great as well. Didn't get a chance to try their pancakes but they looked DELICIOUS! Might be reason enough to come back to NYC again. 😉 (Pictured is the fried meatballs, mozzarella sticks, spinach salad, chicken caesar wrap, and steak quesadilla with sweet potato fries)

Discovered yet another gem of a diner in NY, and it's safe to say it's quickly become one of my favorites. The Apple Caramel Crumb Tart and toast were beyond words, simply legit and delicious. It's one of those places that keeps pulling you back in, making you fall in love with it a little more each visit. But the real surprise was the Egg Cream, served up in a delightful vanilla flavor. Contrary to what I initially thought it might taste like (somewhere close to eggnog?), it was wonderfully creamy with a light, velvety, and slightly fizzy texture. The vanilla was hearty and present, making the drink resemble a toned-down milkshake. Absolutely loved it and it's apparently a must-try NY diner classic. The service was attentive, adding to the overall great experience. Although a bit more explanation about the Egg Cream would have been appreciated (it seemed so normal here that our server was a bit stuck on how to describe it), it was a minor hiccup in an otherwise fantastic dining experience. Definitely a spot worth checking out for anyone looking to enjoy some true diner delights in New York.

The ambiance was unique and cozy. The service was friendly, fast, and attentive. The food was delicious and yummy. The price is around $20-$40 per person. We had a great breakfast.

The service in the place is very good. The staff is very friendly. We visited the place two times, we tried the veggie omelette and the chocolate chip pancakes. The veggie omelette was good and cooked well with rating of 8.5/10, but the chocolate chip pancakes were normal and didn’t like the dough texture, rating 6/10.

Amazing! Traditional yet not too typical American diner. Service was exceptional and friendly as our server quickly greeted us and food and drinks were cleared as soon as we finished, all with great attitude. Food was cooked quickly, tasted great, portions were more than adequate and the presentation was not sloppy. Traditional recipes were not just the same old, but custom ingredients were added. Stuffed french toast is a must try and so is the fresh-squeezed oj. The atmosphere was inviting and retro-like. It was a full house without a cramped feeling or sacrifice in service quality. Location was within walking distance from our hotel in Times Square. Premises appeared accessibility friendly. Price was affordable and value was great. Overall we felt welcome and appreciated.

A good place to eat. We went for breakfast. The service was good, employees friendly, kind and helpful. Everything we had was tasty. They just need to renovate or clean better the toilet, which is just one...Prices normal.

I was trying to get brunch somewhere else in the neighborhood, but they were crowded, so I came to the Times Square Diner and they were fine. The Strawberry Nutella Pancakes were really the standout, with the omelettes and home fries both just being fine. I didn’t love the coffee.

This restaurant has such a diverse menu, and everything I ordered came out absolutely delicious. I ended up going back twice while I was in the area! I had the huevos rancheros, which were prepared perfectly, and the staff was very friendly. All the other dishes I saw coming out of the kitchen looked equally delicious.

Deniz Ultanur

Typical American diner, went first thing at opening, was the first customer. Service was fine, food was also as expected, very good. I had a bagel, bacon and a stuffed French toast with coffee. Prompt and cordial service bacon was especially good. Docked a point because of price, but it is a few minutes walk from times Square, so I guess it's normal. I'll go again for sure.

Times Square Diner & Grill serves burgers, wraps and sandwiches 🥪they also have all day breakfast. We had burgers with sweet potatoes n coleslaw 🍔 n they were big portions, reasonable prices for food but not so much for the alcohol. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The restaurant has a bar and some tables. It’s located close to time square. Overall recommend it!

It wasn't crowded on the Saturday night in October we went, so our party of 4 was seated right away. The host and our server were very friendly and attentive to our needs as customers. The food was good for three of us. However, one of us found hair in her food. The staff was very responsive and replaced the dish with another meal. Unfortunately, the meat on the replacement had an "off" taste, so my daughter did not finish the second meal. My hope is that our experience is not the norm. Because we appreciated the customer service, I would give the Times Square Diner & Grill another chance.

It was overpriced but good enough. That's pretty indicative of New York in general. I just ordered a burger and fry and I have to say that I did enjoy it. The ambiance was very traditional American…

Came in here because they had a TV by the bar. Why is it so hard to find a bar with a TV on 8th Ave. Wanted to get a burger and watch the Knicks while i waited my family at a show. \n\nWhat luck !!…

Not really a diner. More like a sandwich shop. Order at the counter and pick up your food and sit at a table. Overcooked omelet. expensive for what you get.

Great food and friendly staff but the portions are HUGE! Would recommend sharing a dish between two people as it was a little overwhelming!

This was a great find for a bite near Time Square. The burgers were delicious! My sister got pancakes and loved them. The portions were very generous. You’ll not be able to clean your plate. …

The portion sizes are absolutely massive, and the price definitely reflects that. if you’re calling on a budget, this isn’t the place for you. service was great, my server refilled my water every time i was getting low, and constantly came over to see how my food was. both of the sodas i ordered came FLAT. no bubbles. the food was just… eh. very few of the entrees actually came with sides, so if you wanted a sandwich and fries your total would be over 30 dollars. don’t really recommend, find another spot.

Initial reaction was positive. Decor and ambiance was nice. Took a while for me for the waiter to get to me. Was quite empty when I got here which kind of took me by surprise. I got their two eggs …

With the prices that they charge, I would expect the food to be warm. I had to get the attention of the waitress (who was talking with another waitress) to get more syrup and a refill and coffee.

I was there twice in the morning, the first time there everything was fine. The second time, I ordered coffee and intended to order oatmeal again, as before, but the waiters were busy talking among themselves when the diner was virtually empty. I left in disgust, without ordering the oatmeal.

I gotta give it to this place; their speed is amazing. That being said, the food suffers because of it. No seasoning in anything, quickly cooked and dry eggs, and the price is way too high for the taste of the food. Service was fantastic, but they need to take 5 minutes more to season their food and put some passion into their cooking.

Service was great! My medium well burger was under cooked, chicken sandwich was a frozen chicken patty, the bagel (not pictured) wasn't even a true NY bagel... over toasted and was hard to swallow. Staff was great but the food was a big miss for me.

It was an okay place. We went bc it seemed like the most decent place walking distance from our hotel. It wasn’t horrible, but wasn’t the best I’ve had. Service was good and attentive, but not sure I’ll come back for the food. Ordered French toast with bacon on the side, as you can see French toast was no French toast bread and was very basic for $18 and the bacon was thrown on my French toast.

I came here for breakfast based on the reviews, but ended up walking out shortly after sitting down. The staff was rude and the service was poor, and it wasn't just my table--other guests were be…

My omelet was good. Service was non existent. No water or coffee refill. No one checked up on me. I went to the host stand to get my check. Bartender with glasses took my order. He could care less. No wonder place was empty.

Over $30.00 for two small slices of “French toast” and two eggs. The toast was cold, completely plain with not even a sprig of something for decoration. I walked out. REPLY TO OWNER: I most certainly did mention the cost before I walked out and your server said he was sorry but that was the price. The "toast" was $18.00 plus an extra $2.50 for maple syrup. The eggs were $7.00 and then tax, of course. But I wouldn't pay $20.00 total for what you see in the photo. That you dare to serve two pieces of dry bread as "French toast" and charge $20.50 for it is absurd, as is your response.
