Underwhelming food and overpriced. Everytime I order with cook in the morning he has a disgusting attitude.

This is just a lunch spot. The food is really good if you get there at the right time. If you don't, the food will be cold. I recommend the gumbo.

First time at this place. Got a breakfast platter. Had high hopes but the home fries had no taste/ flavor. The sausage patties were not the best. The eggs were good. Waste of my money since i only ate the eggs.

I've seen the guys behind the panini counter roll their eyes at orders more than once, acting like I was bothering them lol. I didn't order anything special. Once was a burger. Another time it was a panini (that's already on the menu). If you don't want to work, why are you here?! There's too many options around here to deal with this disrespect. This was my last visit.

Came here one day to try it out, and I really enjoyed it. They have seating, bathroom and many options to eat. There are many different stations where you can get different things, such as a buffet, Spanish/Asian food, pizza, smoothies/hot drinks and deserts. It can be a bit pricey though, but if you’re looking for a quick bite, definitely come here.

Your typical bodega/corner store cafe. It has a variety of options in terms of food: pizza, burritos, wraps, sandwiches, salad bar, hot food buffet. It is a bit pricey compared to the other bodegas and corner stores nearby. The workers are all really pleasant and nice to interact with.

A good place for food. I recently visited the restaurant and occasionally go for meals from time to time. Yesterday, a stranger followed me in the store, took a meal and parted. My occasional charge is $18.50. This time it went to $26.Due to misunderstandings of the situation, I would advise management and staff to have someone by the door or around the perimeters so that it does not happen to anyone else.Much appreciated.Vegetarian options: N/A

Great place, just gets very very busy around lunch time. Place doesn't have a lot of places to sit, so try to get there early if you plan on eating there. Love the buffet. So many different options.

Pre-pandemic this used to be a go to spot for me (Sheridan’s Market). I’ve tried it a few times and each time I am very disappointed by the lack of customer service. I’ve been told “breakfast’s over” when trying to order a BEC at 10 AM among other one line responses with equal amounts of apathy. Plenty of other options

This is my first time dining here. The restaurant's food and products are neatly arranged and the restaurant is clean. There's a hot lunch buffet available if that's your thing. The menu has a lot to choose from. I order a chicken breast and avocado panini sandwich. It was tasty. The staff here makes sure you have what you need. So if you're ever in the area. GET SOME!!!
