    The food was SO good, and obviously aesthetically pleasing! Service was meh but food made up for it 10000%

    Banana bread
    Mildred C.

    Nice spot for quick bite and drinks! Espresso Martini was delicious. Try the banana bread with honey butter you won't be disappointed. Victoria was very accommodating.

    Absolutely loved good thanks cafe!! The ambience is so cozy, warm and staffs are welcoming. The banana bread is a must, hands down the best banana bread I've ever had and the butter that comes with it is pure perfection. Their avocado toast with egg is also delicious. It's a little on the pricey side but the portion is generous and the egg is cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be back for more!!

    Kimchi Scramble (my typo on the photo. Oops!) - - -  9/23/2025

    Cozy cute little Breakfast and Brunch spot on Orchard Street in the Lower Eastside area. Very yummy delicious choices. I am a fan of the Kimchi Scramble eggs. I would love to figure out how they get the scramble eggs so perfectly rounded and swirly! :) Gaining popularity of late it can get rather crowded and busy on the weekends. Thus, reservations are strongly suggested. They also serve Green Juice, Organic wines, delicious coffees, cappuccinos, teas and smoothies to drink. **Open Daily - 8AM to 4PM ** Thank you!

    Service: 4.2/5 Food: 4.5/5 Price: $$ ($20-30) Simple, clean aesthetic with classic Australian brunch vibes- chatter + music in the background. A bustling café with decent turnover, so no wait for a solo diner on an early Saturday afternoon. Good for groups not in a rush, as I think others had to wait a few minutes, + the food does take a little while to come out. Fairly clean bathroom, unfortunately, there's only one. Double check your bill, some items might have updated prices. What I Ordered: - Green Juice: refreshing, a lot of sediment at the bottom - Kimchi Scramble: kimchi indeed a little spicy, good balance with the labna, perfect soft scrambled eggs - Salad that came with the scramble: did not care for it, not an arugula person

    Saw good reviews came here to give it a try. I have to say I loved my chicken sandwich and my fries. That I would give a 5 star. The pork sandwich was a little bit plain. The kimchi eggs are done well. Honestly very simple menu but it was done very well.

    This place was recommended by a friend to try while I am in NYC. I'll be brief, the food was great, the coffee drinks were delicious, and the banana bread was excellent. The location was also clean and well lit. The only reason that this place won't get 5 stars is because their service wasn't the greatest. I went on a Wednesday morning which was not busy, but besides sitting us down and taking our order we were not checked on once. So, it's a great place to try because of the food, but the service was not great, maybe you have a different experience. A smile goes a long way.

    Small and quaint--perfect for a quick city bite on a sunny day. The latte was unique, and the shrimp sando matched it perfectly. Overall, no complaints!

    Broccolini Farro Bowl
    Kathy M.

    Good Thanks Cafe caught my eye because of the swirly scrambled eggs which looked so asethetic. After eating my way through NY for almost a week, I needed something healthy-ish. Many reviewers recommended the broccolini farro bowl which looked promising. I arrived around 9am on a Saturday and there were still some open tables. When 9:30-10am rolled around, there was a line out the door. I was tempted to order the eggs but I went with the broccolini farro bowl instead. This dish looked so simple but it was absolutely delicious! It was packed with flavor with a hint of spice and umami flavors. It was topped fried onions and an avocado salsa verde. I should have ordered an extra poached egg but regardless, this dish exceeded my expectations. I was on a solo trip so I couldn't try more dishes but I would love to return to try the others!

    We stumbled upon this café when we couldn't get a seat elsewhere. But this was the best find! I think it's best to make a reservation because although we usually walk in, they get very busy and it's hard to say whether you'll get a table right away. Service is good and food comes out fast. Everything on the menu is delicious, but I especially love the harissa eggs. Most of the dishes come with their amazing sourdough.

    Came here on a Saturday morning before setting up shop to grab a sit down breakfast with my friend. The staff was quick to greet us and attend us. Started off with a vanilla latte, my friend got a black sesame Matcha both were rich and creamy. We both ordered the two eggs and toast on sourdough. I asked for salt, pepper & ketchup before I got my order but didn't really need it because the eggs were well seasoned. They were fluffy, warm & perfectly made. I give this spot a 5 stars because the staff was kind, location was great, seating was available l, the breakfast was a good, they had gluten free options and no long wait.

    Kimchi Scramble, espresso tonic
    Liz B.

    I came here Saturday morning around 9:45 AM and there was a little bit of a wait as they were understaffed but they were getting tables ready for the groups of two so it was only about a 15 minute wait! The inside is cute and people aren't seated so close together like a lot of cafes in NY which was nice. I ordered the kimchi scrambled eggs which was placed on top of a really thick piece of sourdough bread and was really good! My mom got the whitefish salad on toast and likes hers too! We did wish the knives were serrated so that it would be easier to cut through the toast, though! I also ordered the espresso tonic which was refreshing but didn't come with the orange since they didn't have them. The food came out pretty quickly and I'd definitely return!

    Really cute health forward cafe! They weren't as busy as expected, and we were able to be seated without a reservation at their "bar" hightop area. We ordered green juices, but then they told us they were out so they switched it with orange. Not a big deal but just something to note. I ordered a kale salad and it was great and fresh but slightly overdressed. The main thing was service - they almost got our bill wrong with the juice but were really nice and switched it out. It was just hard to get their attention and we were sitting around for a while. Other than that, I would definitely recommend if you are in the area! Next time if I'm nearby I would just order something else - maybe an acai bowl. It's an instagrammable spot and they do a good job with presentation!

    Is there usually a line-up?

    All depends on day and time, I have been there a couple of times, and did not have to wait, but once I was alone and the 2nd time there were only 2 of us both times I got there a bit later in the day.

Despite being undercooked, the steak was surprisingly tough and chewy, and it did not seem like a quality cut of meat considering the price. The waiter was friendly and provided good service, which was the highlight of the visit. However, due to the uncomfortable atmosphere, slow food service, disappointing drink, and poor-quality steak, I would not recommend dining here.

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.

They were NOT lying!!! Oh my gosh! It was amazing! The meat was so tender, peppery, juicy! My mother and I got the half a sandwich and soup. I decided to get the matzo ball and pastrami. I had never had matzo ball (we got a first timer here!!!!) ahhhmazing although I don't have anything to compare it to but the broth, was so fresh and clean, the dough/noodle? was so soft and tender, just melted away. Ah it was heavenly. My mom got the mushroom barley and of course the pastrami. I tried a bit of her soup too. It was also delicious. It was beefy (from mushroom) and thick and hearty.
