Friedman's on 450 10th Ave is small, expect to wait. Brunch is served on Saturday and Sunday. The food is very good and the portions are generous. Two in our party ordered Wild Mushroom Toast and the days special Avacado Toast. Those dishes are very heavy, flavorful and very filling. If there are big eaters in your party the toasts are perfect for them. I ordered Grilled Salmon Salad, the Salmon was very crispy on the outside but moist and flavorful throughout, the salad was crisp & fresh...highly recommend.
The location is convenient when walking from Penn Station to the Theater District. It is very close to the Hell's Kitchen Flea Market on 39th St as well.

Our family ate here three times while visiting NYC. Delicious! Go for the blueberry pancakes, come back for the fried chicken and waffles or amazing salad! Great vibe, good prices!

This was best breakfast we had during our 5-day trip to NYC. Based on reviews, we knew we wanted to try Friedman's. We were staying in mid-town, so we went to the Herald Square location on W 31st around 9am. Suggest an early visit if possible since they don't take reservations. It was very busy as expected, but we received a warm, friendly greeting at the door. After a brief wait, we were seated and started with some fresh juice and good coffee. We ordered the wild mushroom toast, blueberry pancakes, 2 eggs and bacon, and the nova benedict for the 3 of us! Every dish was prepared perfectly and delicious! There were many other menu items we had wanted to try (including fried chicken & cheddar waffle and french toast)! We also noticed that Friedman's offers serious gluten free options for those with gluten intolerance. Absolutely plan to return again next time in NYC! Highly recommended!

Had lunch with my family. Ok food, but nothing special. A bit overpriced. The burger was probably the best choice.

Five of us stopped in Friedmans for dinner, after visiting the empire State Building and before heading to a Yankee game. Had read reviews because in search of restaurants with gluten free options. It did not disappoint. The pastrami sandwich is a must have!! We also tried the chicken and waffles, fish tacos, and roasted brussel sprouts. All were delicious and very fresh. Atmosphere is quaint and friendly. Service was great!
