I had the chicken souvlaki and it was delicious!! The chicken pieces were huge and they had all the fixings off to the side, so you could put on what you really wanted in your souvlaki. I definitely recommend going here! ?Dietary restrictions: They were able to make gluten free pancakes for my daughter and she loved them!

Not very friendly staff, food didn't seem fresh.

I like the atmosphere. At lunch around noon mid-week. I was seated immediately and the food came out in short order.The service was a tad slow but I chalk it up to it being lunch rush. I would recommend this restaurant for a nice, low key lunch.

We had a delicious, stress-free, Thanksgiving from Café 82 (carryout - brought it home)We first had their Thanksgiving meal in 2020 when our regular plans were cancelled.Been ordering every Thanksgiving since - even if we had somewhere to go - just so we'd have leftovers the next day.This year we ordered even more.Everything was wonderful - from soup to dessert and in between.And I love that they let you get all dark/or all white meat.I don't think a fancy restaurant could have made it any tastier. (Maybe lose the maraschino cherry garnish tho)And the service was great. I had bought reusable shopping bags. They packed the food in them, - moving around some groceries "for balance"I stopped in yesterday to tsay how great the food was. I think the woman was bracing for a complaint...(the only time they got something wrong was that first order back in 2020. They gave us spinach instead of whatever vegetable we'd ordered. What a happy mistake! We've been eating their spinach ever since (and not just on Thanksgiving)

The food is consistently good, wait staff is attentive. Typical diner setting but my opinion is that it is one of the best area diners. Had a excellent lunch with a visiting friend.

While this can be a decent place to get a coffee and basic breakfast food, like eggs and toast, as with any diner, the food beyond that is not very good. Nor are the dessert items. The last time I was there, I ordered a chocolate chip cookie to accompany my coffee, and what I got was this stale slab of lame cookie mass wrapped in plastic. I asked the waiter to take it back because it looked not edible, and although he took it back and didn’t charge me for it, he disputed my characterization of it. He said, “just say you don’t want it, don’t say that it’s stale.” But it was, and I don’t see why he seemed offended. My dad was a regular at this place, so it certainly has its charm for some, especially senior folks, who you can often see dining there. But in this neighborhood, you can do better when it comes to coffee and pastries and basic brunch fare.

The food is delicious but the staff are rude. They take forever to come to the table & then comment on what you order.

Found this place walking from our apartment one morning. Generous sized, delicious pancakes and good service. Would definitely return!

Decent diner. Outdoor seating available. We were seated indoors (our preference) fairly quickly but served fairly slowly. I like coffee right away, not ten minutes after being seated. Food and coffee were pretty good. Typical diner choices. Tiny bathrooms. Probably worthy of three stars, but it gets one extra because it’s a dying breed but still hanging in there.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options on the menu.Parking: Upper West Side. Forget it.Kid-friendliness: Okay for kids.

I was here Last night with my family and I can't let you that I never was more disappointed in food then last night. I usually go to Neptune Diner in Astoria and the food there is amazing, good and fresh but last night here it was like left overs it was disgusting. I took my brother here because he is visiting from Europe but never again. I will NOT recommend anyone to go here for a great food because they would not get it here.
