Not so sure what the rave about this place is compared with any other diner on the street. I ordered the special, Truffle Fried Egg, what a disappointment! Oily! Not seasoned! And something I could have made better at home! We also had the pancakes, which were ho-hum...The biscuits were so dry I had to drink a few glasses of water just to get down the bites...Pancakes were like anything you could order from International House Of Pancakes! Check out better places in the city where you can get a much better brunch menu and better space to eat, without the 1.5 hour wait. For good biscuits and gravy go to the Comfort Diner. For good bread and service go to the Blue Water Grille. For great cheese and fondue brunch go to Artisinal. For awesome food and brunch in general go to Balthazar. The Noho Star is a great place in the area which serves better food and less of a wait. Penelope's for their Penny Sandwhich! Any meatpacking restaurant like Pastis or Vento. Serafina or Waldorf (Peacock Alley) for eggs Benedict. You see with all these choices there is no need to go here! Be warned!

Pros: Close to the Whole Foods on Houston

Cons: Long wait, sub par food
