    9. Grilled Chicken Pesto wrap
    Heather M.

    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!

    Lots of choices. Great food! Quick and friendly service. We all had breakfast and were very pleased.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Good diner food, we all ordered breakfast and had no complaints. They were very busy and in a bit of a rush to get us out.

    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?

    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!

    We were seated right away, service was amazing, and the food came out rather quickly. Servers were busy, but made sure our table was well taken care of.

    Great diner like environment. Food was great and portions were large! Service was great especially since they were so busy.

    Here is an article about reopening the diner after the events of 9/11 (note the Dow Jones average at about that time)

    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.

    Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

Did an earlier dinner on a Saturday with a friend at the bar. We got some similar items, some different. The thing I kept the same was my martinis and all three (sour cream and onion, tomato, and espresso) were just as amazing as ever. Food-wise, I stuck mainly to the classics with one new dish: - Pizza rolls: Very good but 3 pizza rolls for $20 felt small to me. I feel like I remember seeing others served more when I've gone in the past, but not completely sure. They're nostalgic and fun, nothing to die for. - Fries: Great as ever, we opted for just one of the sauces (avocado dill). - French Dip: This used to be cut in 3 pieces and now it's 2. Works well with a duo but I do think it's actually a little smaller now than before when I compare photos. - Samoa sundae: Still amazing, still so so worth. It was fun going with a friend who hadn't been before and seeing the joy upon trying the dish!

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.

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.

We perused the menu and decided to go with the Naan, Beet and Rhubarb Salad, Yellowfin Sashimi, and then entrees grit cakes, low country broil, and dumplings. The food was exceptional. Nice combinations of flavors with fresh ingredients. Ambiance is nice. It's a cute spot, not too loud. Definitely a nice spot to relax. Service was fantastic. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. My mom also has an allergy to chili and the staff was nice enough to go through the menu and help her pick options that worked. Overall, highly recommend Lola's! Lovely staff, flavorful food and a cute atmosphere will make for a fun evening.

    Stumbled across this spot by just walking in flatiron. We were seated by the kitchen counter which…read moreis a pretty cool concept. The ambiance was great and I loved watching the food being cooked. Service was 10/10 and our waitress was really attentive. Apologies that her name is slipping me at the moment. I wish they had more items to choose from but overall would recommend. I had the low country boil and my friend had the pork dumplings and grit cakes, all very delicious. I will come back for the fried chicken thighs

    Visited on my way to see Lady Gaga at MSG, and this was the perfect spot! The interior is gorgeous…read morewith lots of gold and has a very mid-century modern feel that I absolutely love. The staff was very welcoming and just as excited as all the fans headed to the concert, who clearly made up the majority of the patrons. They offered custom cocktails themed for the concert, including my favorite, "Wine With A Smile"--a drink Lady Gaga herself loves, built on red wine, diet coke, and maraschino cherries. They also had a wonderful espresso martini, a bacon & fig old fashioned, and made a solid dirty martini. The slider stack was absolutely delicious and so filling that it ended up being the only food option we got. I will certainly be back when attending any event at MSG in the future!

    After a full day of wandering the city with friends, we stopped by Bourbon and Branch for a drink…read morebefore heading to the train station to go home. We sat at the bar upstairs and it was pretty empty. It was nice having the place to ourselves. The cool thing is that they have happy hour on Sundays. Therefore, that is what I went with. I got the margarita off the happy hour menu. Eventually, one margarita turned into two. Our bartender was nice. I didn't try any food here, but I'd love to come back. As a person who loves bourbon and whiskey, I'd like to come back and try some of their bourbon based cocktails. Bourbon and Branch seems like a really cool spot and it's not far from Penn Station. I'll definitely keep it in mind next time I hit the city.

    I found family and culinary excellence on one block. I walk…read morein and I am greeted by name.. The owners also run "The Kettle Black" and "Old School Italian Restaurant". I feel like I am with my Italian friends and family in Corona,NY. There is nothing but love in all three restaurants. They have everything covered. The staff are a beautiful group of "International", young people. The tastes of the food and the creativity, blew my mind. The Crab Cakes are the best I have ever had! Food wise, Bayridge rivals Manhattan. The female staff made me fall in love! They make this old man feel special. Drinks are awesome and inventive.

The fried calamari could've been less oily, as this took away from the crunch; also slightly overcooked. Baked clams were decent. Salmon was cooked to perfection. Pizza was great! They reheated for us, since our group was too busy chatting. Desserts - phenomenal! Drinks- ehh. Brunch menu - French toast was decent. The salmon over hash brown , was lacking a touch of something , couldn't pinpoint what was lacking. Chicken and waffles, decent, wasn't the best I've had. Service- jonathan was our waiter during brunch and also our bartender. He's GREAT! During service dinner, we had a female waitress and I felt she lacked attention to details and couldn't flag her down when we wanted something. Overall, service is a hit or miss , I guess? If you're looking for an intimate dinner, nope. Love their vibes and music playing in the background. You might need to "shout"'to hear
