As true NYC diners struggle to hang on, it's truly an honor to find such a gem. The ambiance, the food, the service, and the quality create a wonderful old style diner. One of the best in the city. read more

We loved our little experience here. The place was empty but we didn't mind. The food for how simple it was tasted really good. The restaurant was located right at the corner of our hotel it was perfect to get a quick bite. The staff were nice and service was quick. The place itself looks really old and like it's been there many many many years but it was still cozy. I would go back for sure. read more

It was ok. Wasn't the greatest food. Shake was ok. Kinda disappointed. Even the fries were ok. Old diner, like you would expect the decor and everything is of an old diner. The cake and pie in the glass, looked old. Service was fine. Maybe it's a better place at night as some drinks with friends. But I wouldn't go back read more

New York Luncheonette - Fries - American Near Me - New York, New York

Solid breakfast spot in Midtown. It was right near our hotel which was convenient. It is on the smaller side so when we got there it was pretty full, luckily we got a table. We sat against the wall towards the back so I got to see the whole restaurant in front of me. Menu is straightforward, they have your classics for breakfast from eggs to pancakes. I ordered 1 egg with sausage, potatoes and toast. It was pretty good and gave me fuel for the long day of exploring NYC. My boyfriend ordered the breakfast burrito which he enjoyed. One thing that did happen was I ordered my egg scrambled but they gave it to me a different way. I still ate it but they did unfortunately mess up my order. While the food wasn't over the top, it was just what we needed. It also seems like a local family owned business which I like supporting. read more

Excellent breakfast with fast, friendly service. Food was served quickly and was piping hot. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable. Mediterranean wrap with egg whites ( on request) was filled with fresh ingredients. Home potatoes that come with are delish. Ordered a fresh cranberry muffin, toasted. Fresh and great with a little butter. OJ was cold and good. Coffee was great and they're quick to offer refills. Open for other meals but we were delighted with our breakfast. Tables are close together but other customers were friendly. Right next to the Kimberly Hotel. A great pick for a quick, satisfying breakfast. read more

The service was quick! Great ambiance for a deli/diner. Heaping portions and the Ruben was to die for. Bark in pastrami! Oh my! Enough for 4 people to eat and prices reasonable. read more

A typical NY diner! Good fast service and food. You won't be disappointed. Make sure you have your full party to be seated.

Pricing simply doesn't make sense. You can go to a luxurious restaurant and eat a steak for less than some eggs and pancakes here.

Cozy dinner style restaurant. Tables are a bit close together. They have a lot of coat hangers around the restaurant which was nice in the winter time. Service was attentive and fast, and my group of 4 was seated promptly. Came for breakfast and tried the pancake lumberjack which was filling. You can choose your type of eggs and meat. read more

Good food and prices, especially for nyc. Took less than ten minutes for breakfast for 6 to be made, and staff even helped us find a bus!

Good food!! Pancakes were really well done, eggs were good, only thing was sausage was a little cold and it was the first thing I ate. No hate though still a great experience! Our server was really nice and it was a cool atmosphere as well. read more

Amazing food! Waiters were nice accidentally ordered too big of a meal and was not able to finish but that's my fault

I frequent this diner for breakfast during my visits to NY because I usually stay at the Kimberly Hotel which is practically next door. Great, casual place. Busy during peak breakfast and lunch rushes but the wait is fairly quick. They also have a few tables outside. Service is attentive and quick as they want people to be in and out. Food comes out hot and fresh. Coffee is not Starbucks quality but it's a diner...they come around often to refill your cup without even asking. Friendly staff, prompt service...perfect for a fast meal when you're on the go. read more

I got French toast with sausages and forgot to take photos until after I was basically finished as you can see. The French toast and sausage were just okay - nothing special at all or anything to write home about. Extremely basic. A bit pricey for how basic they were but I think it's the location. The coffee Had free refills and was mid. Generally a mid experience. Nothing special at all. The ambiance is as basic diner as it gets. Don't expect much from the place. It's fine for a quick eat. The staff is also just fine. Nothing special but also remember you're at a diner. They were nice read more

Great food, great service. Excellent Diner experience in midtown. Went there for breakfast with my wife. It was much better than getting coffee and a sub par breakfast at one of those chain places where you wait on line then go try and find a seat. Prices were very reasonable. (Very close to the chains, but you get to have the sit down waiter experience) Our server was excellent and attentive. I will be back. read more

Not great but not bad. Got the hot pastrami (with cheese) sandwich for lunch and it came with a small portion of fries. Inside, it is a classic, old-school diner that will get the job done. Maybe it's because I ordered through MealPal but I wouldn't order from here again. read more

Excellent breakfast--the best Mediterranean omelette ever! Polite, professional service & cozy ambience. Most customers are tourists since it's located near several hotels. We're New Yorkers living nearby, and will definitely return. Highly recommended! read more

Very meh breakfast. Small portions, NYC prices. Should have gone to Madison Restaurant a few blocks over instead where prices are also high, but you get a little more for it. Came here on Sunday morning and barely got a seat at 930am. Would have expected better, but I think its just closer to tourist hotel rooms, so they come by proximity. We ended up getting a Pancakes with a side of Bacon strips and a California Omelette that had Avocado and Bacon. The omelette was served with their form of hash browns and inedible toast. The pancakes were actually decent, but those are pretty hard to screw up. Props to their individually packaged butter not being frozen. However, the omelette was overcooked, the toast was a brick, and the hash browns under-seasoned. Sadly, service was excellent, but that's not enough to bring me back. read more

Very tasty meal. It was right across the street from our hotel. Prices were not too bad. Service was good and food came out quick.

Very cute diner. Had a great Diner experience here. It was exactly what I was looking for when visiting New York. Location was close to my hotel. So we just walked there. The tables look like they only have room for 2 or 4 at a time and we were a party of seven, Staff were great and had a table for us within a few minutes. They were friendly and fast. Covid precautions in affect here. They check for vaccine cards and move dividers between tables as soon as they sit guests down. Staff have masks on (but it doesn't keep you from noticing they smile at all guests) and were great to us. The food was perfect. It was prepared quickly, looked great and tasted amazing. Just look at the pictures. If visiting New York. Make sure you go here. It won't disappoint. read more

Great little place for breakfast in NYC, the fastest service I ever had in the city, great options for breakfast/brunch.

This was a nice, casual, divey diner with pretty good food. My did was really good and exactly what I was hoping for, but my girlfriend wasn't as happy with hers unfortunately. So I averaged it out to "pretty good". Our waitress was really nice and attentive and made sure we had all we needed. The food also came out quickly after we had ordered. All in all, a solid experience and I would recommend. read more

Great service and great food. Perfect little diner near our hotel. Plenty of food. Highly recommend.

The food here was not THAT bad. We ordered the pancakes and an egg and cheese croissant. However, there were still some eggshells in my egg croissant and my friend had a dead bug mushed on their napkin (we didn't kill it, it was just on it already). The OJ is not fresh squeezed and tasted like a bad carton kind. The service was quick and our server was very nice. This a classic diner vibe, so don't expect much. I probably wouldn't come back because there are better diner and breakfast options in my/this neighborhood. I will say most of the prices are very reasonable, which made the experience more tolerable. read more

Pretty good diner. I ordered breakfast from here for my coworkers over the phone. A rather large order, the person taking my order did a really good job taking everything down. I picked up the order from the restaurant. Each dish was in it's own brown bag with utensils, salt/pepper packets, butter, and jam. Order: - 2 eggs scrambled + sausage + home fries + wheat toast (4/5) Pros: - Great tasting breakfast - Large menu - Good price - Servers took down my very large order over the phone accurately and efficiently Cons: - I found the individual brown bags, while convenient, kinda wasteful and not environmentally friendly Overall: - Great breakfast from New York Luncheonette. They do have outdoor dining, but even their take-out was good. read more

In NY on business, gotta go to a classic diner. This was practically next door to my hotel so why not? Went around 8:30, and I chose a seat at counter. The space is not large and fills quickly. Several regulars came in and ordered some custom food to go, which is nice to see. I was pretty vanilla and had the tomato and jalapeño omelette, which comes with breakfast potatoes and toast. Nice sized portions, the jalapeños had some heat and the potatoes good flavor. Eggs slightly overdone for my liking, however I'm picky on that where I like them more soft and silky than cooked all the way through. Service is quick and attentive. Feels like a local loyalty kind of place. read more

Perfect breakfast spot in midtown east. Typical diner menu items and combos. Sat right away, 10am on a friday. Food was on our table about 5 minutes after ordering. Delicious food, good portions, reasonable prices, great service. read more

Great selection on the menu. Food was nothing special. The food was cold. Eggs on two plates were scrambled and cold. The corn beef hash was not cooked enough. I probably would not go again Service was good. Hopefully we just caught them on a bad day read more

Found this gem near our hotel and went every day of our NYC strip! My 10 yr old nephew is a very picky eater and convinced himself that he only could eat chocolate chip pancakes on this trip. Turns out, this place has 'the best chocolate chip pancakes I've ever had!' Great breakfast, fast and friendly service. New York typical prices. We were seated almost immediately every time. read more

It's a diner...too many in the city to count but I like that this one is close to my job. Came in to grab a quick lunch with a neighborhood friend. I must say, the portions were generous but the service lacked. We were seated right away but it took a while to order, which sadly cut into our one hour lunch time limit. However, when the food arrived, we were ready to nosh. I ordered the chopped steak with cheese and salad, which by the way, the salad was huge! I shared it with my lunch bud as it was way bigger than it needed to be. The chopped steak was chewy but I'll give them points for flavor. The meat was cooked a little too well done for my taste as it was a bit tough - even though I ordered it medium rare. My friend ordered a bagel with lox and cream cheese. Hers was simply put together and looked satisfying. The thing with diners, they always have huge bagels! The lox was decent I was told. Again, couldn't care much for the service or lack of. It took a while to order, even longer to get the check. The time it took to get our drinks was the only thing that was quick. read more

Quick service to be seated and served. Friendly staff. Food was good, diner type breakfast. $48 for two people. We had sodas, omelets with bacon, toast, home fries. Only thing is bacon doesn't have much taste. Workers are quick to clean up the table. Ambiance is busy in a small space but everyone seems good about moving around and not knocking things over or not getting into others space. I ordered a waffle too but they forgot to bring it out and didn't charge us but that's okay because I was pretty full from the omelette. So the waiter saved me a few hundred calories and carbs! Good place for couples and families. Forgot to take pics we ate too fast. read more

Packed little place on E 50th, with a small town diner vibe. Hand written than you notes and reviews are stuck to the wall in the entry way, and the owners/servers were super friendly. No frills breakfast place with all the usuals, eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, etc. We sat down, ordered 3 minutes later, and food was out maybe 6 minutes after that. No idea how they served us so quickly. If you're looking for a classic American breakfast, this is the spot. I'm a corned beef hash guy, and theirs didn't disappoint. Nailed the over easy eggs. read more

Crappy diner Crappy service Crappy food. Cold and bland. Fried were hot and crispy but that is hard to mess up. Never got any refills. I had to go up and get a pitch and serve the table. Service never can back. The photo of the meatloaf was real and what was server. Extremely disappointed. I would not even recommend the water. read more

A nice, simple little diner on 50th Street. The food is good but not amazing. I came here with a group of 8 and we all ordered different things. Everyone liked their food but no one raved about it. One of my friend's meals (the turkey club sandwich) was actually pretty dry. The one reason I rated this restaurant a 4 instead of a 3 is because of their fresh squeezed orange juice which was delicious and made in house. Their service was also exceptional. They got our table ready right away and our server was kind and knowledgeable about the menu. He even let me taste their OJ before I ordered it. To sum it up, our visit was a nice experience - a good stop if you are hungry and don't know where to go - but it won't be my first pick next time. read more

Finding decent diner food in NYC at a reasonable price can be challenging. Me and my family have been to quite a number of diners in Manhattan. Generally speaking, if the food is tasty, then it's expensive. If it's cheap, it's not all that tasty. And if you do find cheap and reasonably priced food, then the service stinks. Not so with the New York Luncheonette! Once our hotel host recommended them for breakfast, (We were diagonally across the street from the restaurant.) we decided to go there. Over several days, we ordered the Lox, Eggs and Onion Omelet, BLT sandwich, home fries, toast, French Toast and Bacon, pancakes and sausage and several other items. I can honestly say that we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of our food, prices and service. Truly, the service there made a mockery of all of the stories that you hear about rude NYC service. Everyone was pleasant and enthusiastic about their food. We never asked for a second cup of anything because the staff was on top of things. (Rare now due to almost everyone being understaffed.) And you got the sense that everyone there truly wanted to be there. And I'm a bacon and lox snob, so you give me either one of those dishes that isn't quite right and I'm bent out of shape for the rest of the day. No worries with either here. Thick cut crispy bacon and lox that was extremely fresh. Yeah baby! Bring me more! And my sister, Luch is notoriously picky about her food and even she said that we can go back again based on the pancakes. My daughter, Muff said that the French Toast was "tasty". That's high praise from a Gen Z kid. We will seriously be back for the food, prices and especially the service. read more

The first thing you notice when you are seated at the table in the middle of a busy Manhattan street is that the table is on a slant. I took out my level to be sure by my intuition was more than enough. However, do not let this deter you the food is fantastic and the experience excellent. The waitress, bless her heart, took my order and returned a reasonable amount of time later with all my food. Even smuckers jelly (which I didn't even ask for mindreader much). The food tasted really very good and the plates hardly slid on the slanted table. The smuckers elevated the whole meal. The coffee kept flowing and we were not shoed from the table after paying the bill. To top it all off I took some smuckers to go and was not harassed for it. That's what I call quality service. Pros - smuckers -view -smuckers -restraunt Cons -none they had smuckers read more
