  1. The steak was cold and rubbery, the cheese cold and hard (not melted), the onions and peppers smashed in the middle under the half melted cheese, and the fries were cold, hard, and overcooked!
  2. It's nothing fancy, but in this clean restaurant you can guarantee yourself solid food and pleasant service.
  3. not expensive food at all.
  4. The food is decent diner fare and affordable.
  5. Best rice pudding I've ever had.
  6. Our first time in NYC and someone working at the hotel recommended here for less expensive, but great food.
  7. The food was terrible.
  8. The menu is predictable and the food is good.

Good, Reliable, a little overpriced

by NYCjbd at Citysearch

I'm not sure what these other users are complaining about. IT'S A DINER. The menu is predictable and the food is good. Nothing fancy, but what do you expect from someplace with salmon and pasta dishes alongside burgers and eggs? Clearly, they aren't master chefs.

Still, the food comes quickly, is generally well-prepared and they deliver.

My only real complaint is that it's overpriced for what it is.

  • Pros: Reliable, Consistent, Quality
  • Cons: Price, Service

Worst service in New York

by tbox77 at Citysearch

I have never experienced worse service in New York. I had to ask three times for water and they never refilled my water or coffee. The waiter just slapped my food down and then never returned until he slapped my check down. While I was trying to get my money together, the cashier started taking it out of my hand. The food was terrible... How difficult is it to screw up a waffle? The waffle was lukewarm, the butter was hard as a rock and impossible to spread, and the maple syrup was cold. The coffee tasted funky. The phone had an incredibly loud ring and rang off the hook. It was awful; I left ten cents for tip.
