This diner has lots of potential. I visited after a long evening in the city. Upon arrival, there was a few people dining but I was seated immediately. The menu has it all, like your typical diner salads, appetizers main courses and their fun shakes. They also offer a lunch special daily from 11am to 4pm. The space isn't the biggest, but big enough to accommodate their crowd. My spouse and I ordered a few things, chicken quesadilla, wings, salad, burger, an alcohol beverage and pasta. All foods were pretty decent, with good portion sizes. Now why the 2 stars.....The customer service needs help. My waitress was busy having personal conversations with the door hostess. I'm not paying so much for my meals to hear inappropriate conversations by staff (it's unprofessional). I also didn't appreciate when asked questions about the menu her response was always with an attitude, she wasn't welcoming at all. Would I return, maybe but the place needs help customer service wise.

6oz. Single Smash Burger

Big plus: Very accommodating service. The interior was unlike a lot of nyc diners, with a more nostalgic feel. Reminded me a lot of the Mel's Diner and Bob's Big boy of my youth. Smashburger and fries were really good- the fries were crinkle cut similar to that of shake shack but very crispy and perfectly salted, unlike the fries at Shake shack. We had a big group of about 6, including a child and the rear booth was perfect.

Came here for some food one evening and it wasn't bad. The diner is very nicely decorated with lots of cute pieces that threw you back into time. Love how they have breakfast food 24/7. I got their pesto pasta with chicken and my boyfriend got their egg breakfast plate. Both were solid and huge portions.

Cookie, croissant, and muffin. So fresh.

Trying to support this business and the start up food waste program Goodie Bag Food company, so grabbed 3 bags at Diner 24. The smash cheeseburger was delicious and the fries had just the right amount of salt, and a big portion. Of course I had to get a vanilla milkshake to go with it. Very good and not overly sweet like some places. The large cookie, muffin, and croissant were all fresh and went great with my coffee at home. Even better was the awesome retro vibe to the place and the staff who were top notch friendly which is a must for me. Definitely going back!

Cute little diner next to my friend's apartment. The burger was ok. Probably should have added my own salt, but alas I was too hungry

After hearing that Diner 24 serves a foot long hot dog and a massive milkshake, I knew I had to check it out. I came with my boyfriend and we ordered the food long hot dog with Mac and cheese on the top. We also ordered spicy chicken waffle, and red velvet milkshake. The food came out quickly and everything tasted good. When the milk shake arrived, I was honestly amazed by how huge it was. Even with the two of us trying, we couldn't finish it. The atmosphere was nice with great service. It's definitely a fun spot to try out.

Actually open 24 hours which is rare these days. The food is good but pretty basic. Overpriced . Large portions. I asked if they made tuna melts as I didn't see it on the menu. Server said they definitely do. I ordered one but out came platter with fries. Hmm so much food I didn't need at that time of the morning. Black coffee and platter - $37. Umm so a tuna melt is more than one of your listed steak specials , ah I see. Felt swindled. I had been here once before and ordered a BLT and it was ok. ( photo ) I thought I had reviewed this place on my prior visit but apparently I never got around to doing it. Anyway this would be my last visit, I felt that pricing tactic was very unscrupulous. Chuck it up to an experience . The rest of my review is based on other factors . Staff is attentive and friendly. Just order off the menu.

Excellent service and fantastic food love it! Highly recommend if you're in New York

So... I'll start with the good. Food was basic and good. Very much what you would expect from a diner. It had a nice Christmas decor and everyone was pretty friendly. The milkshakes look crazy! I'd consider returning for one on a warmer day but.... The bad...the so so bad. 4 tables had spills including ours. Now it was 11 am on a Friday morning. Everyone was awake and at it. But these tables are so cluttered with sh*t and wobbly that the minute you set something down it shakes. The staff seem unbothered and almost like it's normal to have water dripping at 3 of the nearby tables. It's 20° outside, you're moments away from an ice skating rink floor. We ordered coffee first and then our food. Every table around us was served coffee...and even refilled. I stopped three different server/waiters/busboys and thought we would eventually get the coffee...our food came out. We ate. I finished my eggs and bacon...still no coffee. Now when we ordered coffee i asked if the had iced coffee because my crazy a$$ still likes a cold beverage in these temps. She said sure...I followed up with is it coffee or cold brew? She said cold brew. Not a fan, so I asked if I could have coffee and a cup of ice. After we were practically done eating two orders of a watered down coffee and a hot coffee make it to our table. I asked again is this coffee or cold brew the bus boy said coffee. It tasted fine...like coffee poured over ice... The busboy set the cream on the edge of the table...guess what happened moments after he walked away. The table shook when my partner picked his coffee up, the cream teetered falling off the edge of the table but I caught it as I had witnessed so many other cups tumbling, as I caught it though it exploded all over my hands, and the girl sitting so close next to me too. Her blue pants looked like she had a long night out. Again staff was nowhere or couldn't be bothered to help clean any of that up. It was a lot. We quickly finished wanting to get out of there before the next tumble...now why when I go to check out. We aren't presented a bill just offered the price and an iPhone style check out...$46.27...seemed a bit steep in hopes they would take off the two coffees they forgot. I tapped/paid plus 20% for tip. I asked for a copy of the receipt... Drip coffee $3.50 Cold brew $6.00 I asked our waitress about not receiving the coffee until we were finished eating and why I'm getting charged almost double for the same coffee...and ice?! She said I'm sorry it's the same price for iced coffee as cold brew. I again asked that the same $3.50 coffee poured over ice is almost double and she said yes sorry. ?!?!!?!!?!! What?! And I was again charged for something I didn't order. I will say our server did seem nice and gracious listening to my concerns but I still have zero understanding how this makes any sense. Diner 24 is a skip!

This is a good late night eats spot in my opinion because nothing is open late anymore (went after 2). Favorites were the appetizer ribs and fresh strawberry patron margarita. Portions were huge. Mac and cheese trio was okay.

French Toast & Sausage

My family stopped by Diner 24 for brunch, and although the food was good the service was a little slow and the restaurant was extremely crowded. We had a big party so we definitely challenged the waitress's. I would give them another try, just not on a week day!

Shelley L.

Had a business lunch here and we got seated immediately in a corner booth which was exactly what we hoped for. All was good until the service. Occasionally got weird looks and comments about our age (a range of younger and older professionals) and it was uncomfortable for us. The food was good between the smashburgers, gyro sandwich and baklava shake. However, I'm hoping if there is a next time, we won't be critiqued about the difference in the patron's ages and why we're all dining together. We left the restaurant and originally wanted the remaining shake to go but was so full we left it on the table. One staff member ran after us to give it to us, which was sincerely appreciated, but when we said we were too full and had to leave it on the table, he threw the entire thing in the garbage can on the street. Quizzical looks continued by all. It was just an odd experience.

Great diner! I loved the vibe here as soon as I walked in. Nice clean diner with great food and great service. Delicious burgers (and cheese fries!). Will definitely be back.

We…read morewere pleasantly surprised by the new Aegean menu, which featured drinks inspired by countries by the Mediterranean Sea. It was my first time there but I was expecting the menu I saw online, not this new one. We tried 2 drinks: one inspired by Turkish figs and one inspired by lemons and the "Miracle Berry", which inverts your palate and turns sour into sweet! I really enjoyed both drinks. The figs one came with a sweet fig granola bite and the lemon one really did taste sweet after eating the "Miracle Berry"! I'd definitely come back to try their many other drinks.

I liked how they organized the menu by country/geography to facilitate an understanding of the flavor profiles. I got two of the date & fig-flavored smoked whisky drinks and it was a well made, balanced, and very good. Not cheap at some $25 or something, but middle of Manhattan with some creative ingredients means I guess it is what it is. Servers seemed a bit annoyed to have to deal with us shortly before close as I think they were hoping to usher people out and close down maybe a little early. One the one hand I get it, on the other hand you've got two paying customers on a slow night.

I'd give this place 6 stars if I could. It's my favorite speakeasy in the city by far…read more The drinks are absolutely phenomenal. They're experimental, whimsical, delicious, and worth every penny. My absolute favorite is Child of Light, and my BF's was High Frequency Device. The interior was dimly lit, with a couple of candles per table or counter. It's a perfect place for a date night. And while there may be a wait on busier nights, it's always worth the wait. We were sat at the bar once and were very well taken care of by our bartender, Nikola. It was a Sunday night, so it wasn't terribly busy. We chatted up a storm and he was able to create some drinks off the menu just for fun (on request). He also made my BF and me a couple of drinks to celebrate our anniversary too. Wonderful people and wonderful service. Needless to say, we will be back as frequently as we can!

One of my friends and I were looking to grab a drink before calling it a night. She had been to…read morePatent Pending before and had good things to say, and since it wasn't too far from us we decided to head over. Patent Pending is a speakeasy, located behind Patent Coffee. It was dark when we entered the coffee shop but an ajar door gave way to the bar. The decor is a homage to the works of Nikola Tesla, which can be seen in the subtle electric theme throughout the space and the naming of the cocktails. The space isn't too large - the bar and stools take up most of the space but they also have some booths/tables. The place looks great. The cocktail menu is very creative - I got one of their seasonal mixes that was actually two drinks in one. The main cocktail was meant to be sipped first and they provided a small glass of beer to be sipped after. The name escapes me but it was very good. Since we had cocktails at dinner, we only stayed for one round. Service was good, and overall I enjoyed my time at Patent Pending. I would definitely return to explore more of their menu.

As I walked in and saw just how swanky this place is I panicked - there was no way we could just walk in here without a reservation, right? But the hostess was, thankfully, so down to earth. I was straight up like hey I totally messed up and thought we could just walk in here, she was like you know what, let me see what we have. Lo and behold, she did have a table for us - as long as we were out in an hour and a half, which was just the right amount of time. Stepping into this place feels like you're in some secret, super special cocktail club. Decor is super high end, vibes are upscale AF. The cocktail menu is incredible -- and incredibly pricey, but truly worth it. I ordered the Valentino which was strong and sweet, really well made. They gave out a complimentary nut mix that was also delicious. Service was swift and gracious. If you're looking for a spot to impress a date, this is it.

There's also seating on the second floor, perfect for couples or small groups. I tried two of their cocktails when I went. The first was the Eastern Julep, a delicious twist on a classic. The mint Moroccan tea gave the drink a cool, refreshing taste on every sip. I also tried the Silver Screen, the closest drink I could find to an old fashioned. It was interesting, there was definitely a hint of a buttery taste. Overall a really balanced bourbon drink. I walked in and found room at the standing tables. A bar seat eventually opened up but I was already on my second drink by then. Definitely make reservations if you're planning a visit!

I stopped by Clemente Bar with a friend who was staying at a nearby hotel. I had never been to…read moreEleven Madison Park before and wanted to check it out, not realizing at first that Clemente Bar is a separate concept from the restaurant. We walked in without a reservation around 6:20 p.m., and they were able to accommodate us at a shared table until 7:15. The menu surprised me a bit. Since I associated the address with Eleven Madison Park, I wasn't expecting to see items like wings stuffed with sausage, which were done in partnership with Jungsik. We ordered those along with the mushroom burger and asked them to cut the burger in half for us. The cocktail menu was creative and a little intimidating, with unconventional ingredients like cream cheese and green curry. I went with a fruity Hendrick's-based drink, and my friend ordered the spicy green curry martini. Both were good. Mine didn't taste very strong, but it also wasn't overly sweet because there was enough bitterness to balance it out. The green curry martini was more adventurous but still worked. Service was mixed. There was a woman standing near us, so we tried ordering food with her, but she seemed hesitant to come over. Maybe she wasn't a server or was newer. For drinks, she brought over someone more seasoned, who quickly helped guide us based on our preferred taste profiles. Her suggestions were very good. The mushroom burger was the highlight for me. It was a little salty, but the crispy mushroom and soft bun were a great combination. I honestly wished I had more than half. The wings were okay. They were crispy on the outside and juicy inside, but coated in a Dorito-like powder that made them very messy. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd come back, especially for the mushroom burger.
