CASH ONLY ! Tasty food at a great value , limited seating however. If you arrive off-peak the food is served blazing fast.

LaDawn Penigar-Mitchell

This place is the best diner in the city , hands down. Old school charm and amazing food! Cash only (but it's cheap )!

Fredrik Stenbeck

For the last ten years I have visited this place for breakfast overtime I am in NYC, I love the place, the staff (same for many years now), the food and the location. Try the sausage , it's fantastic.

Cynthia Lin

Great hole in the wall diner . A small line on saturdays but moves quickly. Really tight space but it was fine when we brought our toddler. Get the blueberry pancakes !

Christina Squitieri

Bacon EVERYTHING. Get a homemade unsweetened iced tea (it’s massive) and eat some of their rightfully famous breakfast .

Alex Robertson

a tad expensive , but love the place--the food is delicious and it's so cute !

Loved the veggie scramble + their buttered wheat toast is phenomenal. The hot chocolate is meh - tastes like Swiss Mix. Make sure to bring cash!

Classic dinner fare and friendly staff ! I went with a cheeseburger and loved it.

Delicious "home" food! The portions are generous, the food is amazing and the prices are very fair . The staff is not the friendliest but certainly the quickest!

My favorite breakfast spot in New York. The French toast is unreal and the bacon egg & cheese is amazing. The best.

To-go order pro tip: bacon + egg + cheese + tomato + toasted roll, walk across the street to Bonsignor and grab coffee and fresh OJ .

Probably best greesy spoon in NYC. No frills, food is served in the blink of an eye, cash only . Pancakes & omelettes are awesome!

Perfectly crispy fries that take you back to days in junior hs skipping class to hang out at the diner .

Order omelets off menu . Try a cheddar salami pepperoni omelette with onion . Place is legendary. Staff is amazing and you are served within minutes. A must try!

A typical NY breakfast . Eggs , bacon , bagels ... Good, crowded , between two NYPD cops and a trendy local family. Fun!
