    Waffle with Blueberries Strawberries and bananas
    Howard B.

    A regular diner located on 2nd Ave at 35th street. A short walk from the 35th street ferry terminals. Had breakfast there at 10AM. Good food Great service.

    Food poisoning with a side of mac (apparently you had to pay extra to melt the cheese)

    I came here with extremely high hopes for a classic diner meal. Lets just say, it did not go as planned. I ordered the mac and cheese, the waiter gave me a bowl of pasta in liquid with two slices of orange cheese on either side. The waiter laughed as he set it down. I had THREE bites. Immediately felt sick to my stomach, literally and emotionally. I was throwing up ALL night unable to move. I was even put on bed rest and had to miss several days of work. Guys do not come here, it is overpriced and you WILL get food poisoning. Because of this incident I can only eat bananas for the next two weeks! **** you, Gemini! Im more than disappointed.

    Lamb Gyro on Pita Deluxe

    I had a poor experience at this establishment 12 years ago but tonight's was just the opposite. The service was good, the lamb gyro was perfectly cooked and the restaurant was clean and well lit. I swore I'd never return but I'm so glad I did! Maybe there's a few lessons to be learned here. To restaurant owners and manages: 1 bad experience could lose a customer forever or at least a decade in my case. Readers of reviews: one bad review doesn't necessarily mean the place is awful. And maybe a final message to myself: maybe I should allow three strikes before it's called out.

    Cheeseburger with onions and mushrooms. Cheese fries on the side.

    Really great burger, cooked perfectly, with tasty fries. Friendly service, and well maintained interior.

    First plus its 24 hours open! Great for weekend late night snacks- Their breakfast is good too. Good worth for money. Love their shakes and they have a good variety of omelettes! One of the cool diners in the neighborhood!

    Lamb Gyro on Pita

    Me and my friend had decided to go here for some 9pm diner experience, nothing crazy. He ordered a chicken sandwich and I had ordered the gyro. The chicken was so bland and the sandwich had no flavor (it was also missing the tomato). My gyro definitely did not look like one and I got thick tomato and onion slices that did not resemble a gyro whatsoever. The only good thing was the water and the fries were okay I guess. I really tried to give it a chance but man it was a pretty bad experience.

    Order a burger deluxe. The fries where under cook and not good at all and burger seemed unevenly cooked. I would have sent it back but I order through uber. Which they pretty much delivered it crushed.

    As far as diners go.... This one made me feel a little uncomfortable, but I guess that's what us Geminis do; I wouldn't expect anything less... or more lol I just grabbed wings and skins, the skins were odd, like big fries as opposed to the boats I used to get as a kid but I sorta went there with the idea to break the chicken into the skin... could t do that! Not that I wanted to at that point, got the wings fry so they were nice and crisp, sauce on the side- pretty dang good.... Decent meal, decent service, creepy staff and creepy guests... guess I fit in well! Lol

    Definitely one of the best diners in the area and it's 24 hours - a win win! The portions are generous, the staff is friendly, and you will definitely leave full. Highly recommend.

    Egg White Vegetarian Omelette
    Morgan B.

    A incredibly classic NY diner, service is pretty fast and they are always quick to refill your coffee. The food is very average but hits the spot after a late night! Pretty clean as well. My biggest complaint about this spot is that it's very expensive for a dinner, over $20 for an omelette and some home fries.

    We were seated right away. I ordered an A.B.L.T. It was really good. They were not stingy with the avocado. My friends enjoyed their food too.

    Had reservations for 2 on a Saturday afternoon and the place was packed. We got there about three…read moreminutes late, but they seated us within 5 minutes in a booth. 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.

    Love the look of Friedman's. Nice dining room that they pack in comfortably. Came for an early…read morebreakfast and the dining room filled so fast that I was happy we got there early before the rush. I got myself delicious sunny side up eggs with the pastrami hash. I was impressed by the chunks of pastrami throughout. Very hearty and very delicious! My husband indulged in the Nova Benedict. They packed on the lox. He didn't even finish but found it amazingly delicious. Service was okay. Nothing too spectacular. I almost felt an inconvenience to the server but we didn't have a fussy order nor was it busy (we ordered before the rush). Maybe she was preparing for the rush. Lol either way, it wouldn't stop me from returning.
