“It's a very long wait on a Sunday. I arrived around 11.15 and the wait for one person was an hour. For two people or more it was a 3 hour wait.The famous pancakes were delicious, even as a single stack was quite large. The home fries were just broken up hash browns so a little disappointed.I would go back if I was super hungry, but because of the long wait I had eaten something small beforehand.“
“Perfect experience of a typical diner!Super generous portions, tasty dishes and a warm welcome!I tried the garnished salmon fillet: I've never had such a large quantity on my plates + a super good split pea soup!If I didn't live 6000km away, I would make this place my canteen!“
“A perfect establishment—solid breakfast food, kind servers, and a vibe that reminds me of going to breakfast with my dad as a kid. Other diners in the city are at least twice as expensive and don’t provide half the warmth or charm of this place. Thank you thank you Mike’s!!!“
“Amazing, uncomplicated food that's tasty and really good value. The challah bread is particularly good, and I love the potato soup. It's also a very welcoming place to eat if you're on your own - just take a seat at the counter!“
“Mama Jo’s gives plenty of positive energy by the morning!Best egg and cheese with bacon bagel sandwich I had in NYC, amazing and special donuts with different flavours, and many homemade options on the bucket list (definitely trying as much as possible in the future).The black coffee is also amazing and have all the alternative options for regular milk.I am absolutely in love with this best breakfast cart in NYC!“
“Food is not that great and kinda pricey for what it was. Just basic diner food. Staff though is fun and very talented! The singing is a lot of fun. I just wish they did more musical theatre songs and less pop songs! (Might have just been there at a bad time, but there was a lot of non musical theatre when I was there). Fun place to experience once, especially if you're into Broadway. Very loud though (obviously) so just fyi.“
“Excellent service and great atmosphere! Everyone is so attentive and helpful. The food is delicious and affordable. Their happy hour is really good. The drinks are well made and they are not cheap with the liquor.Well done guys, we will be back soon!!“
“Awesome brunch. Wait is really long on the weekend however and they only do walk-ins. Food came out slow and service left something to be desired but food mostly made up for it. I'd definitely try and come here more often if I lived closer and it wasn't as busy!“
“Our favorite diner in Park Slope. Our most preferred dishes are the chicken & waffles, classic nachos, huevos rancheros, mango smoothie, cheeseburger, and enchiladas. The diner does Mexican dishes very well. Their house hot sauce is hot, makes me sweat, that's hot spicy it is. Strongly recommended.“
“We stumbled upon this diner on a quick overnight trip to NYC. It’s everything we were looking for, delicious food made quick with excellent service. The owner at the front was greeting everyone like old friends and you could just feel the sense of community. He seemed to know most people by name. We split a Philly cheesesteak and a BLT sandwich for lunch. They were both excellent. Would definitely recommend. 10/10!“
“Johns coffee shop is honestly a great breakfast and lunch place to go to when visiting NY. The egg, bacon and cheese roll did not disappoint although basic still very delicious and good price. The banana but pancakes were my absolute favorite. Service is excellent and seems like they know their regulars very well. Such a great place to come eat.“
“We were visiting NYC and tried this diner for breakfast. The food was delicious. The staff was incredible!!! The gentleman at the door was super friendly and helpful and the manager Alex was great to let us leave our bags for a little exploring. Would definitely recommend for great food and friendly NYC atmosphere.“
“Times Square Diner & Grill is where the heart of New York City beats in every bite! Nestled in the vibrant Theater District, this bustling diner is a symphony of flavors and friendly vibes. Picture this: you step inside, and the aroma of sizzling bacon and freshly brewed coffee envelops you. The menu is a love letter to classic American comfort food, with generous portions that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance. ?☕Breakfast here is legendary—whether you’re craving a Western omelette with ham, onions, and peppers or diving into a stack of cinnamon-kissed French toast, you’re in for a treat. And let’s talk about their potato home fries—crispy, golden, and addictive! ??The service? Lightning fast and genuinely friendly. The staff at Times Square Diner & Grill make sure you’re well taken care of, whether you’re a solo diner or part of a bustling crowd. It’s like stepping into a warm hug from your favorite aunt. ?Now, let’s chat about value. You won’t break the bank here, but you’ll leave with a full belly and a smile. It’s the kind of place where memories are made—where you laugh over pancakes, share stories, and feel like a true New Yorker. ??️“
“Breakfast Burrito and Red Flannel Hash with chunks of real corned beef, not has out of a can, and low sodium) and cubed sweet potatoes and beets! Generous portions, very tasty food. Friendly service, innovative menu. And if you are staying in the very nearby Club Wyndham Midtown 45) you get a free 10% discount (after showing your room key).“
“My old haunt tried and true! Food is decent and service is exceptional. Sometimes I ask for specific deviations from the menu and they are always accommodating which I appreciate! Last visit chef lost a couple of points for serving sending out a pasta dish that had obviously not been strained before plating so my a La vodka sauce was pretty watery. I had to add Parmesan and sour cream to thicken it. PS the desserts are delicious!“
“Had our breakfast here every day during our recent 5 day stay in NYC. Worth the wait some mornings. Friendly staff, especially Josie - beautiful, smiley, friendly and welcoming. Tasty, filling, great value for money breakfasts - set us up for the day.“
“A classic no frills diner, they had seating for my group of 5 immediately for 11 AM on a Saturday and was a really good price! I got the Spanish egg white omelette (which I still don't know what exactly was in it other than mushrooms and onions). It came with toast and home fries and although was a little on the oily side, was good and cheap! Quick service and hits the diner food itch.“
“This was a happy accident for me. I booked this not realizing that it was a Vegan restaurant. Never having eaten vegan food before I was a bit apprehensive on whether I would enjoy....well I'm happy to say I not only enjoyed but LOVED the experience. How the heck you make a vegan bacon egg and cheese is beyond me but whatever magic they use is working. Delicious! Very cool vibe and decor and very friendly staff as a bonus.“
“We live nearby Denny’s at Jackson Heights location and we have the tradition of having breakfast there every Sunday. Staff always receptive and friendly. I would like to appreciate Denise C and Diana who are very detailed oriented about their services. We love coming over and we feel very comfortable and welcomed when we are there!Kid-friendliness: They have a decent selection for kids“
“We had lunch here, and sat outside on a lovely fall day. Service was a bit funky -- not bad at all, but somewhat forgetful -- but the staff was friendly, apologetic when appropriate, and enjoyable. The food was very good. Classic old-style diner with a broad-ranging menu. Everything we had was well-prepared, tasty, and served hot. I'll go back. A little gem.“
“First breakfast of our trip brought us to this diner afew blocks from our hotel.We were seated immediately and served straight away. We opted for the Sunday brunch which is available from 10am and at $22 per person, was value for money.Would highly recommend this place if you are visiting and in the area“
“This place has always had great food I have been eating here 20 plus years the weekend get super busy so be prepared to wait for a table they have the best lemonade around but if you're not in to sweet stuff like my wife don't get it or ask for less “
“I didn't get to take any photos but this was a great find for a late night meal. Have cash or Venmo app ready. We ordered tacos and burritos. Everything came out fresh and fast. Their chili sauce is fire and have just the right amount of heat. They ran out of horchata for me but I'll come back and try again!“
“Stopped in for a quick breakfast (and also to get out of the rain). Had a booth to myself just before the early lunch crowd started arriving. Went with a 3-egg turkey bacon omelette. Chose home fries and rye toast to accompany it. Also, ordered an orange juice as I had had my morning coffee already. Service was good and prices were reasonable. Not a bad diner if you are in the area...“
“we were very happy with our breakfast sandwiches! I had a few questions regarding coffee grinds. the man was knowledgeable and happy to share information! overall 10/10 :) Nice Latin American decor - also, very clean, organized and spacious cafe!“
“American pancakes are a must, absolutely one of the most important dishes to try that I wanted to include. I ate the most delicious dishes here. Blueberry was tempting with the photo on the menu, but it totally blew you away in person. Served additionally with fruit and maple syrup - real gold in a huge portion ? Eggs with salad and avocado toast served really beautifully and tasty. Nice promotion for Mimosa, but it's only worth it if you drink 4 or more of these drinks, the taste itself wasn't the best, so we're glad we didn't try more.The service was okay, although the waiting time was a bit long to approach the table and show interest. Generally, a very nice place with a large selection of dishes.“
“I guarantee you aren't going to find a more diverse and amazing menu. So many choices and everything was so good. I got the Ruben served open face with your choice of pastrami or corned beef. I got the corned beef and the wife got pastrami. So good! The sweet potato fries, OMG. I don't know how they make them so good but I've never had better. Just trust me on this one, stop once and you'll go back.Parking: Easy to park when we went and it was free.“
“Coming off a 13 hour flight from Hawai'i, this place was PERFECT and felt almost like home. Homemade food, welcoming service and reasonable prices! Actually very low prices. I noticed everyone knew the patrons names, greeting them by first name as they walked in. This place is a golden gem. Everyone is welcome here! Mahalo !“
“It’s an oasis in Canarsie Brooklyn. Much sweet or unsweetened juices and salads. Thank you Mellissa original, Mellisa’s sister number one and number two. You are all efficient business women and fine young ladies. This is the best American diner in the middle of hard working New Yorkers.“
“What a great experience!! Fun, energetic and great food!! George, the Owner, was polite, and he knew his clientele by name, service was great, the lady behind the counter was a machine!! Great Food, fresh Hollandaise sauce, nice portions and great atmosphere!! Will be back“

They also offer wine , juices, coffee and tea So ,Do yourself a favor and visit this lovely restaurant , Highly recommend! I would definitely come back here again and again.“
“Small homey diner with good food and good coffee. They have a wide variety of menu items including health conscious options and a natural smoothie bar. The customer service was excellent. The staff was attentive, warm, and kind. The inside is small but cozy. A great spot for a coffee date, friend date, or solo date.“
“Beyond the delectable food, the service at Carnegie Diner & Cafe is truly exceptional. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about your breakfast experience. Their attention to detail and prompt service make your breakfast a joy from start to finish.“
“Argentine-run restaurant almost hidden on 37th Av. in Long Island City. We got there with google maps. Very warm and friendly welcome in a typical American spacious environment. The proposal is very rich as well as tasty and plentiful for a light or more substantial breakfast suitable for a day on tour in New York. Lower than average prices. Advised.“
“I have been coming to George's for many years now whether it is for dine-in or take-out. I have always gotten fantastic service and great food. The staff is warm, welcoming and treat every customer with the utmost respect. The restaurant itself is very clean, even before our current COVID situation. They take this pandemic very seriously and they make sure that they follow all the protocols suggested by the CDC and our State Government. They have been in business for over 60 years and I hope that this institution will be around for another 60+ years. #supportlocal“
“My wife and I, wanted to experience a different place to eat from. After searching Google search, she decided to go to this diner after reading their reviews.This was our first time visiting "The Classic Diner." When we arrived to the location there was a small parking lot. I looked at my wife like," Where the h--- you bought me to! She payed no attention to my expression. She went to the back of the car and pulled out my wheelchair, then we proceeded to the Diner. We was greeted by the owner who directed us to our table. That's where all the fun began. Our waiter who goes by the name Tino, was very professional wrapped in a sense of humor made our dining experience that much enjoyable. As we sat and talked, our meals came, it was more than we expected. Half fry chicken, cooked to perfection alongside large French toast, coffee and juice. Couldn't eat all the chicken, so we got a to-go plate. We really enjoyed ourselves.Thanks to The Classic Diner.We will be back!“
“I have been visit this diner from a very young age. I love it here and will continue to eat here. One of my favorites is the “Big Mess” it consist of potatoes, onions, green peppers, meat of your choice, eggs all mixed up in one dish. I also like the salmon hash over egg whites or eggs of your choice with home fries, french fries or grits.The only thing I will say is the coffee can be a little stronger coffee, kinda taste like water, but in this recession that we are in, I don’t expect the coffee to be like Starbucks.Highly recommend this place.“
“We have dined at both Brooklyn Diner locations for breakfast and dinner and both experiences were excellent. These locations have the classic diner feel which seems harder and harder to find these days. Most recently we were in for dinner, the spicy margaritas were a perfect start to a fun meal with Genina(?). We shared the Mexican burrito bowl and the burger for dinner and the bowl was outstanding. It felt like a home-cooked meal in the big city. Genina was attentive and welcoming from start to finish. The burger and fries were well executed. We will be back for the pot pie and the lasagna ASAP.“
“20240220::i love these small local diners. i got the burger(ok, premade), and pankakes(i love pankakes as much as i love burgers). an order of pasta and alfredo, it wasn't bad(took a while cause they had to make the pasta midday. at least its fresh. need to try their omlettes and home “
“Been a neighborhood coffee shop that we can always count on for fair price, good food , quick delivery with a smile. They don't forget anything in your order , add the utensils,napkins, salt pepper ketchup and drinks wrapped tight in cellophane so nothing is spilled! Will always be my favorite neighborhood coffee shop.“
“Fantastic!!! This place is AWESOME. Food is delicious. Staff are super friendly. Seating is comfortable. Atmosphere is great. The manager is a genius for making people feel welcome: me; my friends; the other customers too. You can see it. It’s not just because I’m so cool. :^] It’s very very nice to come to a restaurant where there is so much quality and also so much in the way of personality. Top picks for me: -Romanian Steak (well worth the price) -Pancakes (incredible) Did I mention that the staff here is wonderful? Outgoing. Attentive. Yay!!“
“Customers praise our friendly and attentive staff, who go above and beyond to make dining at Allen's Restaurant a truly memorable experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, enjoying a romantic dinner, or simply craving a delicious meal,“
“Ok so I first discovered Sal's in 1992, went to high school around the corner{Clara Barton). When I tell you I stopped every morning to get a BLTfor breakfast and a $2 dollar hero for lunch. Over the year I continued to support and they have yet to “
“Going to Steve's is always a great time. With this past Sunday for brunch being no exception! We ordered 3 different omelettes and french toast. Everything cooked to perfection. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere, easy going staff that always has a smile. Walked away happy and will be going again. Highly recommend!!!“
“Union Street Cafe is an old school diner with an amazingly affordable menu of solid choices. CASH ONLY. Pancakes, egg sandwiches, burgers, turkey clubs, tuna melts, coffee, pastries all make the menu. It's a small place, mostly 4 top tables. Would be difficult to accommodate groups larger than that unless you came off peak. Ambiance is very casual and a little retro. Service was understandably a little frantic on a busy Saturday and very friendly. Staff is bilingual (Spanish).CASH ONLY.“
“Stopped in to pick up lunch on a Thursday and was not disappointed. The sandwiches are expensive but big enough for two to share, and the pastrami was warm, tender, and juicy. There’s also a full seating area inside if you want to dine in. The place has an old-school deli/diner vibe. We got 10% off our bill by paying cash! I’ll be coming back to try their black & white cookies.“
“Great, expansive menu. Nice location with a great interior. There is really something for everyone. The food was simple, but high quality which is exactly what a diner should be. Fresh ingredients and flavor simplicity goes a long way! Would return if in the area!“
“Ever since I was little, I would go to this restaurant so many times. I have so many fond memories. Even eating it today, it brings back memories of when my mom would take me and my siblings to eat there for dinner. At the time, they would close much later than they do now. Thankfully, I'm already walking home by 2 pm, and since I live close by, the delivery was nice and fast. The food is always delicious, generously well priced, and the customer service is always really nice. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger that came with fries, along with an extra side of onion rings. That came up to $20 on the dot, and with the portions they serve, I was more than happy with that price. I have, and I will continue to go to this amazing restaurant. I highly recommend it if you're in the area.“
“Very pleasant diner experience, with good food and excellent service. Reasonable prices and all-day food items make this place an excellent option for dining in this area and a great value - There is something to eat for everyone.Vegetarian options: Lots of salads, cold items and pasta dishes. They also offer a veggie burger.“
“Homey diner spot in the neighborhood and it’s a real gem. Kinda hard to notice from the store front but inside is a bustling and welcoming family-owned diner. The staff is friendly, attentive, and quick to serve. Their coffee is delicious and I have yet to find a dish that I wasn’t satisfied with. Tried the corned hash with eggs and it was yum :) The chicken salad triple decker sandwich was also delicious. The food is always made fresh and super filling! Will definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu! Thanks for the great service!“
