Great food, served pretty quickly, by pleasant staff. The menu was plentiful, as were the portions. Breakfast was a bit of a bun-fight though, and our server seemed harassed, but again the food was most acceptable.

Had one of our first NYC meals here. The diner looked neat, but small washroom. The food choice was large and it tasted as I would expect. I didn't find the food to be over-the-top good, but it worked. The service was really good. Always checking up on us and topping off the water. The food arrived very quickly. I... More

Amazing choice, great quality and open 24/7. The best place in NYC for breakfast. Try and get there early as you sometimes have to wait for a table but it's worth the wait.

This is a classic diner right in the middle of mid-town, on 7th and 34th Street. They have standard American cuisine, great for commuters at breakfast. It's fast paced - this is New York - and you definitely get the sense of eat your meal and make room for the next person. But it's fair value, and can get quite... More

That (but using profanity) is what their manager told me after I called to complain because I co-worker and I got sick after ordering their food delivered. I went back a few times after that, ordered in person, and stuck to easy things like egg whites on wheat toast and didn't have any more problems. I'd stay away unless I... More

Basic diner, nothing to rave or complain about. Convenient if you are staying at New Yorker Hotel. Open 24 hours which is a plus. We had breakfast and is was good. Very busy, could be a long wait.

A fantastic family diner. Wonderful American Diner food served in a Diner that wouldn't look out of place in a fifties movie. Wonderful food and wonderful service all supplied with a side order of New York sass.
