I tried this even though it was rated on the lower side. It was a very good old school vibe diner. I would go again. Definitely try it if looking for breakfast in a traditional diner. read more

To this place is great good food but it took 1 hour but it was very good and the waitress were very helpful and friendly BUT the bathroom trash can was flipped upside down and the and that's why I think you should eat read more

We were in town for the parade and lucked in on visiting this restaurant for breakfast and went back every morning! Their service was exceptional and I believe family owned. They were ever ready with the coffee, had a wide selection of food for which all that we ordered did not disappoint. I highly recommend that you consider them for your starting meal, they will start your day with a smile! read more

Great spot for breakfast. I visited twice while on vacation. Really liked the outdoor tables and the people watching

What is not to like? The food was fast, delicious, and filling. The people were polite and professional. They had a steady stream of people and seemed to anticipate requests. I came here 3 times for breakfast and each time the food was good, hot, and served before I expected it. If you have a chance, come enjoy breakfast or lunch here. read more

Food was great, service was fantastic, and it was pretty quiet there. I had nothing to complain about.

4 1/2 well deserved stars from an exceedingly discriminating critic; one of the best diners in mid town; the best bacon; not salted to death; basic stuff for a family; rarely waitress was rushed; but manager very attentive; For nyc reasonably priced but the bonus compared to others is portions were generous; the eggs were large not the smaller ones at other places; Returned several times! read more

Was looking for breakfast near my hotel. Yummy bacon, eggs and potatoes. Great coffee. Love a good diner!

Standard diner with Manhattan prices. We got the calamari, kids grilled cheese, burger, and gyro. All items tasted previously frozen out of a bag, calamari, fries, gyro meat, burger meat, all of it. The kids grilled cheese was a pile of the Kraft singles American cheese slices, the stuff that tastes like cheese wiz, and prices were about $25 a meal, the kids grilled cheese I think was just under $16? We were the only ones there at 7pm on a Sunday night.... The staff was nice and service was good. It was convenient after leaving Central Park and prices are standard for the area but won't be back. read more

Don't order the souvlaki kababs they were dried out and stuck to the skewers, you could not remove them without breaking the skewers and cutting the dried out shoe leather lamb chunks in half to remove the burnt wood skewers. Tasted awful. Did they even marinade the meat? read more

An absolute go to for wonderful diner food. Large portions. Affordable. Great service.

We got delivered. And it only took 30 minutes! ( but we were nearby.) Used delivery.com for discount. We had waffle, pancakes, lox egg and onion omelet, egg with corned beef hash. All very fine, and tasty. read more

There's a reason this place is half empty. There are so many better diners in the neighborhood. The people are plenty nice enough, but the food is just not that good. I ordered a monte cristo which was literally just a few pieces of French toast with a slice of ham, turkey and melted cheese over the top. The menu says it comes with fries, but my server said it doesn't and that "a lot of people get confused since it's in a section on their menu that says it comes with fries." Hilarious that she blames the "confused" customers. read more

I can make better French toast at home, it was terrible. Avacado toast I had search for the avacado! Would not recommend

We were ready for breakfast before heading home. Somewhere close to the hotel, that was open and served breakfast food. Applejack Diner- 350 feet from the hotel. Close enough. We were seated immediately. Busy but no line. A server came by and brought us coffee right away. Decent coffee and hot and plenty of it. I usually drink a quart of coffee in the morning so bottomless coffee is important. I ordered a loaded bagel, cream cheese, lox and all the toppings. Toni got an egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel. I got corned beef hash as well because when you go to a diner, you have to get hash. The food arrived quickly, all the servers were hustling. The hash was crispy and salty and hot. The bagel had tons of lox. I needed to use the hash plate to assemble my bagel. Toni's sandwich was good and hit the spot. Service was outstanding. Attentive without being intrusive. The coffee and water kept coming. The plates were taken away as they were emptied. Breakfast in the theater district for $40. It's a bargain for midtown. Applejack, we'll be back. read more

Excellent omelet with toast where you apply your own butter. I like that if toast is hot when it arrives. Toast was hot, so that worked well. Hash browns were good. Service was excellent. Ambiance was New York Neighborhood Diner. Very enjoyable. I recommend. read more

WATCH OUT too many bugs in the water they serve!!!! I felt like the service was forced(I guess people work because they need to pay their bills I get it!) I was served 1 cup of coffee as our waiter dropped off our breakfast and he never returned to offer anymore. My honey had water only. He asked for a another glass of water because the one they served him had a bug in it! So the busboy brings him another glass of water with a bigger bug at this point we gave up on drinking any of their water period! I don't recommend sorry I can't do the bugs in the water! read more

Casual. Good service. Food is relatively inexpensive for NYC. Centrally located for pre- or post-performance dining.

In New York for work. Stopped in on this diner for a late breakfast on a recommendation from a colleague. Service was quick and polite, dining space was clean. The staff were very accommodating and attentive. I must have missed the morning rush, as I got right in and was able to sit at one of the many tables. Had a skillet for breakfast with a cup of coffee. Both were good but nothing special. Coffee was a bit weak, I didn't expect much for diner coffee. The menu is quite large, with standard fare. A little disappointed with overall price versus serving size. Hit the spot but dropped a little more coin than I expected. I'm from the MidWest so my perspective on diners are a bit different than the standard norm of New York City. If you are in the area give it a try for a quick bite to eat. read more

One of THE BEST DINERS/Cafe's in NYC!!! I grew for gosh maybe 20 years going to this Diner whether it with any time of the year and we were staying at our timeshare or we had gone into the parade and afterwards went there for their special turkey dinner. Obviously we haven't done any of that since before the pandemic but the food is delicious, excellent service, very clean and extensive menu! read more

Waiter was very impersonal, gave us the receipt in chicken scratch with just the total legible. The food was good but not worth the price.

Good food. Fair price. Cozy atmosphere. Ate here twice on our recent trip to NYC and will visit again if I've ever close by.

Fills you up. Hot chocolate tasted good. The omlette itself was okay, had mushrooms, tomatoes, onions included, but tasted a bit dry and needed salt/pepper. My friend ordered the wrap & had similar feelings - it was ok, but also needed seasoning. They had inside and outside seating. A lot of food options with breakfast all day and looks like drinks too (bar). Would go back to try something else - seemed like there were locals that frequent it. read more

Good location and super quick service. Classic breakfast menu. Enjoyed the food but the home fries weren't incredible.

The Applejack Diner was like a home away from home. It was just around the corner from the Ameritania Hotel. We were seated immediately even when they had a big group of touring students. We were greeted each day with warm welcome and hot cup of coffee. The food was served quickly and the menu was diverse for breakfast. I chose the Greek omelet every day and it did not disappoint. Nothing like a good breakfast to sustain you through the morning and beyond. One day I didn't even bother with lunch. This was the best breakfast place I have experienced in New York, a peaceful place in the eye of the storm. read more

Came here with the hotel's recommendation for breakfast after we landed early in the city. Had the bagel and lox and husband had the country omelette. Bagel was good with the lox and husband enjoyed the omelette. The potatoes were okay. Had a good variety of food to choose from and place gets pretty busy. read more

I didn't take pictures but the food was good. Typical pricey NYC breakfast fare. I had an egg white western omelette. Potatoes needed more flavor. The service here is very good. Waters and coffees refilled regularly. Food orders received quickly. read more

Stumbled in here a few days ago because I was hungry and not sure what I was craving. Decided a diner was an excellent choice as I walked by since they literally serve EVERYTHING. Their outdoor dining situation is super cute...French style bistro chairs with red checkered tables. Not to mention they have outdoor dining year round, too! I ordered a few miller lites and a Niçoise salad. HUGE portions and excellent flavor. I decided to end my lunch with an Irish coffee which was the strongest and best Irish coffee ever....ended up ordering a second. My server Gabriel was super sweet and attentive, the manager Jimmy even came over to chat and he was super nice as well. Decided I would be back soon. Fast forward 3 days. I went out for dinner with a friend in Hell's Kitchen around the corner and she had to get home early for work. I was still hungry and ready for a nightcap before heading home so I remember Applejacks was around the corner and headed over. The staff remembered me and greeted me and sat me down right away. This time I ordered some red wine, shrimp cocktail, and fries. So delicious as always!! Overall they have great outside seating, a huge menu, delicious food, are usually open 24/7 (during covid I believe it's 7am-11pm) and a staff that is friendly and treats you like family. 5 stars from me. I'm already planning a lunch date with a friend for this week and told her we must meet here! Haha read more

Ate here with coworker one morning. I ordered a mimosa with the make your own omelette. You get to choose one protein, one veggie, and a cheese. I chose to add bacon, artichoke, and Muenster cheese. It comes with potatoes/hash browns I believe and toast of choice. I asked if I could just get a side salad instead and the waiter said yes. I got that with feta cheese and onion. Salad was fresh. Feta was good and onions cut bite size and fresh too. Great salad. Happy dressing was on the side. The mimosa was strong and I also ordered a mojito after. Which was also decently strong! The omelette was a great portion size and cooked perfect. Good amount of artichokes and cheese. Wish I had more bacon. Overall good. $40 for two drinks and my food. Pricey for one person but it's NY. The service was great. The manager came to check on us and the other customers which was great. Happy he cares about his diners experiences! I didn't know how much my drinks were. If I had asked prior, I likely wouldn't have got them or maybe just one drink. My fault. Food is great here!! But I wouldn't get mixed drinks again personally, even though they are strong. :) read more

We enjoyed the Apple Jack Diner after we arrived late in NY. Had a Romanian Pastrami Sandwich, Omelet and Pickles. The Owners were nice and gave us more pickles and cole slaw to take with us as we were leaving. We sat in the Jackie Mason booth (they said he would greet them by name whenever he would see them). read more

This place, ohhh boy. My first bad review and it's rightfully so. Let's start from the beginning: The sanitation sign is PENDING, so that was a bad start already. The servers made us pretty uncomfortable. When we told our server where we're from, he groaned. Soft drinks are bottles instead of fountain, not used to that but I can't complain. The food we received was terrible to say the least. The burgers were extremely greasy, chicken was dry, lots of food were unseasoned, some foods were burned and tasted like they were microwaved, some Italian noodles tasted sour... The chicken pieces were in some weird shapes even though they were drumsticks and thighs. Wish I could give this place 0 stars. Left this place hungry, don't go here unless you like to join in on gambles you know are rigged making you always lose. read more

I was recommended to this diner from the hotel staff and I must say I was not disappointed. The outside seating was great for my COVID anxiety. They had heaters set up which worked perfectly on this chilly rainy morning. The service was fast and great. I'm all about customer service and theirs was outstanding attending to all our needs and wants. Then the food came: it's was just as good as the service. Everything was fresh, hot and flavorful. You would think being in Manhattan the prices would be expensive but nope it was affordable. Overall this was a great location, great service, great food and great prices. If I'm ever in NY again I will definitely be returning... read more

I came to this dinner with my family since it's the first restaurant we went to eat in during our visit to Manhattan, however my family and I disappointment was immeasurable. First off each of our meals came on different times, I received my meal about 30 minutes after my sister have gotten her meal. My mother have ordered the steak which was flavorless and as stale as week old ciabatta bread. The burger I eaten was nothing special so the price for our entire stay does not worth every penny. read more

This is a little hole-in-the-wall diner on Broadway. Hard to find right now due to scaffolding over the sign. There is eating inside and out, inside requires vaccine card(pict). It has an old diner feel to it like it hasn't been updated since it opened. The service was very good. I ordered breakfast in the middle of the afternoon. Food came out fast. The food is slightly above average but affordable for the Time Square area. I'd come here again. read more
