We stopped by for a quick lunch before the Met. Really wasn't expecting much from a place that serves 3 different cuisines, but was honestly pleasantly surprised. I got the grilled chicken sandwich, and it was overall well put together. Well seasoned, flavorful, with a super well toasted rye. I just wish it wasn't a triple decker; way too much bread for the amount of filling. The fries were also super super good; thick cut, but super crispy, with a really tender inside. We also got a chili burger, with the chili being surprisingly good. Service was relatively slow given that we were the only customers, but it is just one chef. Overall, will stop by if in the area and need a quick fix!

Two for $8.90 made to order. Pork American cheese and lettuce. 08/17/21

Burger 1 is a familiar business name to me. I never tried it because I thought it was just burgers. I've seen this Taco place for years and years. It's very small inside and the scaffolding hides it. I didn't know it was Burger 1. I've been passing by recently and today when my lunch plan fell through I went in for Taco Tuesday. It's really like an old school Mom and Pop place. I could order my tacos anyway I wanted. I eat very plain and the spice in the pork was just enough zip for me. I added American Cheese and shredded lettuce. The tacos were double shells of corn. They both felt heavy in the bag. I went outside and found a table nearby. They sure hit the spot after a busy morning. I'm recommending you try this place. The menu is very extensive. The menu is posted on the front of the business outside and inside above the grill. Check it out. It was more money than I would pay for a meal like this but it's worth it for fast friendly service with fresh food made to order!

Grilled Cheese Sandwich - very good
Melissa P.

We ordered delivery and ordered the following: -grilled cheese: this was really good, the perfect amount of butter and cheese and the price was so reasonable. Finally, a restaurant in the city that doesn't overcharge for a grilled cheese. -philly cheesesteak: this was good, but it could use more steak and melted cheese. There is a ton of bread, but not enough filling. The fries that came with this were amazing though. -chocolate shake: this was great. It wasn't melted upon arrival despite how hot it is outside. Overall, I would recommend this place.

Great prices for nyc but sort of bland taste! Burger was an ok size and accompanied it with an egg sandwich for $3 to fill me up and meet $10 CC minimum

It is a cold Sunday afternoon and this place has only take out. The burger looks good and because of their have no seat so I take the burger back to my car and eat inside. The burger taste delicious but I wish they have seats outside.

YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD GREASY SPOON/ HOLE-IN-THE-WALL DINER... it's a real shame that i don't live nearby! i was lured in with an KGB deal! (which stated that lunch was take-out only BUT the workers were so accommodating they let us sit-in!) 8 oz burgers, mexican food, sandwiches, pastries, breakfast-fare (all typical of a joint like this!) -----THEY CUSTOMIZE BREAKFAST BURRITOS: i had a LONG list of ingredients & they were glad to fill my order! sausage (the breakfast link ones i love!), onions, jalapenos, cheddar, eggs, and mushrooms... YUM although it was much smaller than i expected! -----8 oz cali burger: like the sear & meat texture, although the meat was kind of bland! there's only a few counter seats facing the kitchen & along the opposite wall, so i can imagine the workers developing a relationship with their customers! NOTE: call before you come in because I think they close early if business is slow!

Carnitas taco
Heather G.

Mexican and burgers...TOGETHER?!?!?! K sure. Total hole in the wall with a tiny dining area comprised of two rather short counters. Burger was delicious, although if you put avocado on anything I'll eat it without complaint, so even if the burger was less than stellar I'd have enjoyed it, ha. Fries were above average for a burger place, and cooked to order so they were blistering hot and crispy. The taco was typical authentic Mexican street taco style, although $2.75 is a little high for what it was (usually I pay about $2 for the same thing, but given that this is the city and not Long Wharf in New Haven or the podunk little Mexican place by where I work in suburbia Connecticut, I suppose I get it) The green hot sauce is no friggin joke, if you're a wimp on the spice scale, forget it. Cilantro and onions were aplenty, which makes me super happy. Carnitas were delicious too. If you're in the area and are jonesing for a burger, eschew Shake Shack and walk the few blocks here. No wait, and more food for the same price. (Also when an ethnic type food joint is actually frequented by people of that particular type, always a good sign and testament to the food.)

Carnitas Burrito with avocado, shredded mozzarella cheese, rice and baked beans.
Brian L.

A very small, discreet, hole-in-the-wall place about the size of a one-car garage that has only one line cook and one cashier. Barstools seat about 8-9 people: 4-5 at the counter and 4 by the mirror opposite (the stool in the corner is anchored to the floor). The seating arrangements feel cozy when there is no line to order, but prepare to surrender all of your personal space when there is. Ordered a carnitas burrito for $6+ at 2 PM on a Saturday afternoon while visiting the Met. I enjoyed the soothing hum of electric fans and Spanish-language news while waiting. Filling but not heavy, my burrito was roughly the size of a Chipotle burrito and contained sliced avocado, baked beans, shredded mozzarella, and rice. Credit card minimum: $10.

Maybe more like 3.5? Had a craving for a juicy burger and was at least satisfied here. Ordered an egg on top, which I preferred would of been over-easy but came out hard (maybe I should've specified). Burger was juicy/greasy but could of used a little more flavor. Nice plain bun to soak up some grease. Prices are increased from the pics on here, I believe it was about ~$12 for a bacon cheeseburger with egg no sides (not deluxe with tomato, onions etc). Seems like a good local spot though with a bunch of regulars passing through.

We got the Banter Bowl, which includes pickled carrot, cabbage, watermelon radish, cucumber, edamame, avocado, quinoa, and miso ponzu dressing. You have a choice of meats, so we chose the grilled chicken. Second, we ordered the falafel bowl that includes three falafels, pickled onions, avocado, cucumber, whipped garlic feta, kale salad, romesco, and Za'atar dressing that had a delicious flavor. However, our ultimate favorite had to be the Thai Crunch Wrap with sweet potato fries. It was fairly busy, and our drinks took a while to come, but the food arrived shortly after. The next time I'm back, I will be sure to reorder the Thai crunch wrap. If you have food allergies, they are extremely accommodating and have numerous vegan/vegetarian/GF.

Think vintage wallpaper, little knick-knacks, and warm lighting. It's got character. I ordered the market salad with mixed greens, honeycrisp apples, goat cheese, candied pecans, and sherry vinaigrette. It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

It was our first time eating at a Friedman's location. It had a nice diner feel to it, with a mix of booths and tables. The brunch menu has a variety of breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and burgers, starters, and entrees (fish tacos, grain bowl, fried chicken). I like that several of the items are naturally gluten free, and some can be made gluten free by request. We decided to go with three breakfast items from the brunch menu: I got the shakshuka, my sister got the Nova Benny, and we got the lemon ricotta pancakes to share. All 3 dishes were great. The shashuka came with grilled ciabatta, perfect for dipping into the sunny side eggs and tomato sauce. My sister loved that the poached eggs and smoked salmon of the Nova Benny came on top of a crispy potato latke. The pancakes were fluffy and the lemon ricotta and lemon zest elevated their flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive, and he asked us if we had any allergies when he took our order. He came by several times to check on us and refill water. I would return to Friedman's when I'm in the Herald Square area, or check out one of their other locations in the city.

On a recent visit, I wanted to check if their payment policy had changed (they charge a fee for credit cards on top of the bill)... I asked them if they still charge a fee for credit cards and their answer was "there are signs everywhere". While that might be the case, i didn't see the sign...
