All I can say if you're in the district area or called lower Manhattan go to George's it's comfort food and the staff is so friendly. You feel like you're at home. The ambience is like you're at your mama's kitchen. We had a great experience and we loved the food and we will be back again and again it's a great place next to battery park if you're visiting the Statue of Liberty thank you guys. We enjoyed everything and the staff was amazing. BV Simi Valley CA read more

I stopped by George's Breakfast & Brunch and ordered the crepes. They were really good--soft, fresh, and not too sweet. The portions were a nice size, and the food came out pretty quickly. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I'd definitely come back to try more from the menu. read more

This was a great location near our hotel. We were lucky to get there before the crowd. We appreciated how efficient they divide parties in booths to give people privacy. My husband was happy with his burger and my son was excited to have his own pizza. The crab cake was made with kani instead of crab lumps, so I was a little disappointed by that. The service was great though -- from the host, to the people behind the bakery to our server. Everyone was amazing! read more

Loved this place for several reasons. First, they were playing the biggest hits from the '80s while I was there. Second, there was an outlet right near my seat, so I could easily charge my phone. The service was great--fast, friendly, and attentive. I had a cheesesteak wrap and coffee, and everything was excellent, with very reasonable prices. They checked on me often and refilled my coffee mug several times. The bathroom was also clean. Really glad I spontaneously stopped here for lunch. read more

A classic New York diner/deli!! Great location near 9/11 memorial and Wall Street. Service is quick and friendly. We had all the classics- matzo ball soup that could cure anything, a huge cornbeef Reuben, an open faced turkey spinach melt, a grilled chicken pesto wrap, and an incredible chicken parm wrap with spicy sauce! Huge portions of classic New York food! read more

I've walked by this place for years and was never tempted to try it for some reason. I sat at one of the outside tables. They didn't seem to mind that I was working on my laptop while eating. Service was quick and amazingly friendly but i didn't feel rushed. I did the create your own omelette - spinach, mushroom and Swiss cheese. It came with a side of potatoes. I opted to skip the toast. It wasn't the best breakfast I've ever had but definitely not the worst. The omelette was huge. Seemed to be overcooked or something. But honestly it was a good thing since the spinach and mushrooms weren't too watery. The potatoes were ok. They had a nice crunchy layer but not very flavorful. I would definitely come back for the exceptional service. Would love to try lunch or dinner. I think the prices are in line with how things are today. read more

Eddy was the best server we've ever encountered in New York. This was a cute place that we walked into out of convenience, we didn't expect to have such a great experience. I love that they have vegan and vegetarian options and everything was super clean. The service was outstanding and we had multiple people check on us throughout. Eddie was definitely the star of our visit. Great value for the money and a great location. read more

Based on the price, I thought that my omelette would be delicious, but it tasted like dish soap. and then when I had one of their cheesecakes, I found plenty of tiny little beard hairs. read more

If you're looking for a cute diner experience go here. The food was good and portions were nice. The service was AMAZING, we ordered and blinked and the food was there lol it's also conveniently located walking distance from the Courtyard Marriott where we stayed. read more

The food was amazing, I had a omelette and hasbrowns. The staff could of been a litter nicer.

Seated promptly outside on the patio. Extensive menu to choose from, everything from breakfast to burgers to Italian options. Service was good, food came out quickly. My husband enjoyed his farmhouse bacon cheese burger. Avocado toast was pretty much just avocado spread on a piece of toast, ok but nothing spectacular. Over all meal was good and priced as expected for New York. read more

My friends and I were craving some pancakes and decided to stop by here. We arrived around 11am and it was pretty crowded, but we only had to wait 10 minutes for a table. By the time we left (around 12pm) it looked like the line had gotten much longer. We ordered chocolate chip pancakes with strawberrys and they did not disappoint! I especially loved how they put the strawberrys inside the pancakes as well as on top. It was also very reasonably priced. The staff was very friendly and the service was quick. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for some brunch in Fidi! read more

George's - Pancakes - American Near Me - New York, New York

Spinach pie and a Greek salad The pie is huge and very filling. The crust is soggy so I skipped it this the lower star rating. The spinach filling is delicious and probably has 2 lbs of spinach in this pie. The salad is fresh and sprinkled with olives and sliced grape tomatoes. Homemade muffins look amazing. I may swing by in the morning to grab one. This is a casual dining spot. I liked sitting upstairs to be away from some of the hustle and bustle downstairs. read more

Breakfast with elbow room. Everywhere is tight in this city. Some spots more so than others. At George's for breakfast the seating was slightly more spacious than the spot we went to yesterday. Ha ha ha. And the food was delicious as well. Hot hot syrup served with the pancakes. What else could I ask for? read more

Came here for a last minute breakfast with family. Seating was done quickly, which is why we chose the place. Standard breakfast food. Nothing outstanding. I had a Mediterranean egg white omelet and added bacon. Everyone got pretty standard egg dishes, coffee, and a couple of mimosas. Kids got cold cereal and pancakes. I think because this is a good, central location they get away with charging too much for pretty standard food that you can honestly find at many breakfast/diner food chains. For my dish it was over $20 dollars because I asked for egg whites and added bacon. They basically charge extra for any little thing. It feels like a place that takes advantage of tourists in that way. But if you just want a quick breakfast as you browse this area, it works. read more

Edit: Just catching up over the summer reviews. When we woke up the morning of our flight, we decided we had a chat about breakfast and decided, yes we were going to try a greasy spoon breakfast in the area. There's a few options in the area. This looked like the mom and pop type joint we wanted to check out. It looked like the no frills type spot we grew up eating at. We walked down to the area and walked inside. It was packed and we weren't sure if people were in line so we stood outside. A kind patron opened the door and let us know we had to put our name on the list. We did, asked how long the wait was, 20 minutes and thought it wasn't that bad. 10 minutes later they came out to get us as a lot of groups in front of us were much larger so we got pretty lucky. They gave us a seat on the outdoor patio. A little while later we got our menu. A little while after that, somebody came out to check if we needed a coffee. We let them know we were ready to order and somebody was sent out to take our order as well as bring us a coffee. Ordered the basic 2 eggs with bacon, home fries and toast. After a bit of a slow start our server was really good as well as the coffee crew. We got our breakfast in no time. From the looks of things the bacon is pretty close to how I like it. The bacon was alright and probably the highlight of breakfast. Secondly taste test were the eggs. The eggs were pretty bland. Finally took a fork of the home fries. Also bland. Unfortunately have to say the breakfast was pretty much bland all around. The coffee, though it kept getting refilled is kind of what you'd expect from my comments around the breakfast but I did appreciate them coming regularly! read more

You can skip this place - well, the burgers at least. With so many other fabulous options in New York, you never have to settle for subpar. As a visitor, I aim to make to most of my precious time in this concert wasteland, which means enjoying every bite of grub at every restaurant. I wasn't thrilled on spending two hours and a shit ton of money on meh food. After studying their huge menu, I ordered the Caprese Burger, medium (mozzarella, plum tomato, basil, balsamic dressing). Right away, I noticed the burger missing half of its namesake ingredients - the tomato and balsamic. I'll bet my money they pre-assembled this guy, stuck him in the microwave once ordered and completely forgot to add the last two ingredients. I tried my hardest to get the server's attention to no avail. My party was halfway through their plates when I decided to cut my losses. All could have been forgiven if the burger was good without said missing parts. It wasn't. It was dry, way overdone and lacked any kind of flavor whatsoever. The basil was absolutely useless. I couldn't even finish. After all the disappointment I figured I deserved a lil sweet treat. The Carrot Cake was delicious. The cream cheese frosting was real, and the cake was very moist and tasted pretty fresh. The slice was large, too much for me to finish. It was a shame I wasted so much space on a cruddy sandwich when I could've just filled up on this. In conclusion, I wouldn't recommend George's. If you do go, order a piece of cake. Maybe I'll return in the future and try their breakfast, since that's what they're known for...I guess. read more

I wanted to try out a new place to have lunch, but it turned out to be a complete waste of time. I ordered a barbecue burger deluxe (cooked medium rare..... yes, I was wearing a black Beatles Abbey Road shirt around 2pm) . Waiter took my order and then about 10 minutes later asked me what I ordered. I mean, was the waiter paying attention to me? Was my order being prepared? Obviously not.... why then would he ask what I ordered? I was on my lunch break. That was bad customer service, on the part of George's. Pay attention to the customer, repeat the order if you're not sure. Don't come back 10 minutes later and ask the guest what they ordered. So I just abruptly left. read more

You've seen movies, TV shows, and photos of the Financial District, Wall Street, and Lower Manhattan showing it buzzing at a fast pace. Well, that imagery is obviously relevant from Monday through Friday. That's because the area is far quieter and less populated than people might think on weekends. I was in the area and needed to eat breakfast. I was given the name of a few places that looked and sounded like they had more je ne sais quoi than I needed, so I told them to give me the name of a conventional place. They told me about George's and that it's a mere few blocks south of the World Trade Center area. As I approached, George's had a good feel about it. It's in a low rise building and, you'd be surprised, there are more of them in between the skyscrapers than you might think. It had windows all around and the signage seemed "cheerful," for lack of a better word. I went in, was seated right away, and was provided with a menu. They had seating inside and the weather permitted outdoor seating, of which there is some. I chose to sit inside but asked for a table near the windows. The menu at George's is vast, with breakfast and lunch staples. The server also confirmed that the establishment has Greek lineage. That being said, I knew I was in a place that would resonate with me! I ordered one of those platters with pancakes, eggs, meats, toast, and coffee. The prices were higher than in a secondary city, but okay for being on that once-upon-a-time $24 island we now know as Manhattan. With this kind of food, nothing is usually stellar, but it was definitely good and the portions were satisfying. The employees were very affable. I think that the weekend milieu makes everyone more relaxed and, while they were busy, they were not bursting at the seams. Also, if you go over to the left from where you come in, there is another area where there will be a glass case from which you can order things to go and get baked goods and the like. George's (Yiorgos in Greek ... that way I can deliver on being pedantic) is a solid breakfast and lunch joint. Its history in this part of Lower Manhattan is fairly long. If you are in this area and want an unpretentious and abundant breakfast or lunch, I recommend it. On the weekend, and one with good weather, being able to sit near a window or outside and enjoy a quieter Lower Manhattan is a side dish of its own. I'm going with 4 stars. read more

Grimey and generic... Food was extremely greasy, heavy, and gross. We waited in line for an hour, thinking it would be worthwhile. Orange Juice: 2 Choc milk: 2 Lattes: 1 (they were certainly drip coffee with warm milk, NOT lattes). Hot oatmeal with an order of fresh fruit: 2 Mediterranean omelette: 2 Huevos rancheros: 2 corned beef hash and eggs: 2 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 read more

George's is one of my favorite places to get breakfast because they pretty much have anything you are craving in the morning. You get seated quickly, the food comes quickly, and the servers are always on point, which is rare during rush hour in the morning. It is consistently like that. It gets pretty busy during rush hour, so if you are seated upstairs, don't worry because they are just as attentive there as well. Everything is good, from the bacon, eggs and country fried steak, to the pancakes, french toast and bagel with lox. They are big portions, so you can share multiple things if you go with someone and can't decide what to get. They also offer to go orders and freshly baked goods if you are in a rush. I usually come for breakfast, but they are open through the evening every day. read more

George's - Cubby Burger Deluxe with Onion Rings - American Near Me - New York, New York

Effective is the overall adjective to describe George's. We had egg sandwiches and a breakfast plate with eggs, potatoes and something else that I can't remember. For my egg sandwich with bacon on a plain roll, it was a lot of egg so I should have added cheese to break it up a bit more. Bread was delicious and soft but no flavor. Also ordered a chocolate muffin which was hard on top but edible and the chips were good inside. If you're looking for something quick/on the go, go to George's read more

This was one of the only restaurants we found in New York that wasn't a cramped narrow hall for us to try and shove our stroller through to grab a bit to eat. The menu had a vast variety of breakfast items with unique flavors, such as red velvet or brownie waffles, banana raisin French toast, and apple cinnamon pancakes! You can also add on a scoop of ice cream if you want to be really enjoying the sweet tooth. Don't let the sweet flavors and toppings fool you- they also had Greek yogurt, bacon, omelets, and eggs Benedicts for those who enjoy a more savory, protein-fueled meal to start their day. Overall we had a great time and it was one of the best and easiest restaurants to visit, with no wait time and ample service. And...a functioning bathroom. In the Big Apple that's hard to come by! read more

The brunch bells were ringing and George's popped up in my search, so we headed that way. It was Saturday morning so we figured there would be a wait anywhere we went. We got lucky and were seated immediately. As you enter, there is a to go counter for ordering to your left, and to the right you wait to be seated. We loaded up on coffee and then started our food adventures. Breakfast burrito, breakfast quesadilla, Belgian waffle, and croissant french toast. Everything was great, but the croissant french toast was exceptional It came well plated with a strawberry in the shape of a flower and a side of Nutella mousse. Wow! The service was pretty good, and the ambiance overall was no frills. Prices were quite fair too, so it got the job done and we enjoyed it! read more

The hostess was very nice and seated us immediately on the second floor, which was quite spacious and more quieter. The staff was very friendly and met all of our requests and needs. The bagel was delicious, my only issue was the cream cheese seemed to be spread a bit messily on the bagel but besides that it was great because it came with a lot of salmon. The avocado Benedict eggs were a bit too cooked where they didn't have any yolk spill out and the hash brown was a bit under seasoned, but still a large amount of food for a good price. The Lumberjack pancakes were really fluffy and the ham was great but the sausage was a bit bland. read more

We stayed at a hotel nearby and stopped by Sunday morning around 9am for breakfast. We were seated quickly upon requesting a table. It did take the waiter a while to greet us and take our orders, but the service was phenomenal after that. Additional servers were going around refilling coffee mugs and were very attentive. The food was delicious! Highly recommend ordering their french toast and waffles. Note that their portion sizes are filling. Upon leaving, we noticed a line of guests waiting to be seated. It's best to go early, if you and your party don't want to wait. read more

A previous review said that this is a breakfast place. Now anyway you can get breakfast all day but they also have lunch and dinner. I was seated upstairs. Upstairs there is plexiglass between the tables. The menu is huge. The service was great . I ordered a BLT on rye. Given that it is Mid January and the tomatoes are not at their best the sandwich was very good . At 1:30 on a Wednesday, Georges was packed. The prices were reasonable . They have wine. read more

Small, convenient, local, crowded and great breakfast. I have eaten here before at another location and was not disappointed. Met my niece and baby great niece for brunch after the baby's global entry interview. Yes, even baby's can get global entry. A little jet setter at 10 weeks old. My niece lives here and has never been. Seated quickly. It was cold so a cup of hot tea and coffee was in hand quickly to warm up. Such a great menu so we split two dishes. Avocado eggs Benedict was so good. Avocado is on the side so you have to ask to have it layered in. Eggs were perfectly cooked. The stuffed pancakes, omg, really special. The cinnamon sauce that comes with is to die for. Really you could die happy drinking this concoction. Fruit is fresh and enough. Each bite just leaves you wanting to order another. This restaurant is known to the locals so it can get crowded. They do takeout too. Looks and feels like a diner but the food delivers so much more and some locations are bigger than others. Big or small the charm is still there. read more
