If you need gluten free then totally forget this place. French fries= cross contamination. No gluten free bread or pasta. Very disappointed as they used to have these things. Service good. Ambiance is very nice. read more

We arrived early at the train station for our train so we decided to look for a spot to grab a bite to eat. What a gem of a place. We had a wonderful meal and was able to sit and catch our breath after a long day of walking. It was perfect. The restaurant was dimly lit, very romantic and the food was delicious. I had the NY strip with a serving of veggies, it was cooked perfectly. The veggies were delicious, seasoned and cooked well. My girlfriend was in the mood for a burger and she really enjoyed it. The burger came with Gruyère cheese, bacon, avocado and some aioli sauce. Our server was excellent, perfectly attentive and took care of all our needs. I highly recommend this spot. read more

I took my daughter who wanted a classic place that I'd been before. So many breakfasts here. Good food. Good service. Never eaten dinner there until this past visit. Solid! read more

Honestly really unimpressed. The portions are small, the food itself isn't that great, and everything is so overpriced simply because it's near grand central station/times square. Went here for lunch, and the cheapest entree was $22 and the portions are not adequate as I was still rather hungry afterwards. We got the chicken pot pie and the cavatelli with burrata. The chicken pot pie was too soupy for my taste and could have used more actual stuff along with more seasoning. The cavatelli with burrata wasn't bad but i cannot say the price of $26 for a meal without any protein is good whatsoever. Seems like a place that tourists would probably go to if I'm being honest. read more

Spacious down to earth restaurant located across from one of the Grand Central Terminal exits. Prices seemed reasonable as a group of us colleagues came after a weekend work event. Everyone loved the coffee and enjoyed their meals. Loved the options and portion sizes! Some of us felt that the check took a while, but sometimes servers observe us deep in convo and try not to disturb us. I did notice that at a table of mostly women, some of us asked for the check in the middle of the table and the server provided the check at the end of the table, but towards the only male. Could at least just give the check to the person who asked 0=) read more

Service is terrible. General manager speaks to whoever, however he wants. I ordered a salad at 11:45, they didn't tell me the kitchen is closed and transitioning over and that orders won't be put in til 12 when kitchen starts lunch. When I canceled my salad bc I was in a rush to hop on a train to Islip, the gm came and started shouting the conversation he wanted to have with me from 15+ ft walking towards me interrupting multiple guests dining experience. It seems like you don't have your staff communicating kitchen transitions. That is a leadership problem, that is a front of house problem. As a restaurant owner (In Texas) where hospitality is king, I wouldn't even hire this GM to wash my dishes. read more

Food was surprisingly good. We got blueberry pancakes, omelet, potatoes, & toast. The blueberry pancakes were prob the best blueberry pancakes I've ever had. The ham, sausage, & cheese omelet was pretty good as well. The potatoes were well seasoned. Service was great. No complaints at all. Our waitress was attentive. Ambiance was nice and clean inside. Next time I stay in the area, I would def eat here again. read more

Long story short. PLEASE BE AWARE that: **everyone is required to order a breakfast plate by restaurant policy*, which I was told by my server. MOST IMPORTANT: This policy was not printed or listed on the menu at all. It was a super unpleasant experience at my first diner experience in New York. I walked in with my friend and she was craving pancakes because she was travelling to America but I am not. I usually skip breakfast so I decided to get a cup of hot chocolate to start my day. My friend ordered her plate of pancakes. We did not plan to share, nor we did not. I told the server that I only wanted a cup of hot chocolate. The server told me that, *"by restaurant policy, everyone is required to order a breakfast."* I was like what the, there is NO written minimum amount to spend nor this "policy" was not listed on the meum at all. I told him that I do not eat breakfast and that I was not hungry at all. I just need a cup of hot chocolate. He insisted on telling me this was company policy. I asked if a side of house salad counts. He said "ok , but I am not your server", and he would ask if he could do it. I was like, what the, you aren't even my server and you trying to place the order for me? I have never experienced this situation happening in any American dining place before. This place made me, "Wow"? Anyway, he came back and told me that he could place an order for an (overpriced) side of house salad and a cup of chocolate for me. The only positive about this experience was that my friend truly enjoyed her overpriced pancakes, that's it. I was not happy that the menu did not even list the minimum amount to spend, nor the policy of minimum order for each person. Shamed of you guys for having over 4 stars on Google review. And this place deserves less than 3 stars on Yelp as well. I will never recommend this place to any of my friends traveling to New York until they fix their menu. My friends, please avoid this place and find a better place for a dining experience, until they clarify their policy on their menu. Stop making your customers feel trapped or tourist trapped, or confusing, or what so ever. read more

The food amazing, pancakes, omelette and eggs/bacon. The pancakes were light and fluffy. The omelette was overflowing with ingredients and the eggs were just right. Even the toast was delicious. Our waiter was a baby from Spain. read more

The older women at the host stand made me extremely uncomfortable and awkward because she got an attitude and tried to have a mug off. I asked to be seated and she told us to wait. I saw tables opened but assumed they didn't have enough staff, that was until someone else walked in and got seated immediately. I asked how long the wait was after 15 minutes and she stared at me, mocked my voice and made me feel like I was being weird - asking for a table at the host stand. I asked to see the manager (which I never do) and she never showed up so I will be leaving a review everywhere. do not go here!! Also really bad chicken pot pie!! read more

Very good experience. Right across from Grand Central Terminal. The service was excellent and the food was very fresh.

We've been coming here for years: it's such a convenient location, the service and food are excellent; and everyone can enjoy its classic New York vibe. Today we met our Norwegian nieces for brunch, one of whom has Celiac's, while the other is striving to be gluten free. Both decided on the Farm Fresh Eggs and Corned-beef hash with home fries as the starch. One niece requested cheddar instead of goat cheese but ended up with goat cheese anyway. The other asked about gluten-free toast, but surprisingly it was not available. Nevertheless they both enjoyed their dishes. My wife ordered her favorite, the Challa French Toast and I opted for the berry-laden Belgian waffle, having admired it longingly from afar on several occasions. Both were excellent but not the ultimate best we've ever had (that would be at Cafe d'Alsace on the Upper East Side). All in all a great place to meet up with facility and friends where everyone will likely find something they like. Vegans, however may feel slighted though; for example there's no non-dairy milk option. Those who like to make a lot of alterations/substitutions to standard menu items will likely be disappointed. read more

I recently went here for a mandatory lunch with my boss, and had the octopus special. I highly recommend it, it was delicious and tasty. I do not recommend my boss, who was salty. Like, no one's forcing you to make small talk with me. If you don't want to be here, then just give me the company credit card and I will have a grand old time by myself., ya dig??? read more

The plus is the location to our hotel. The food average. I was disappointed I couldn't get a free refill on ice tea. That is outrageous when they charge $4+ for one. Would not go again. read more

Stopped in for a snack after Tea-ing Around Town (TopView)! The brunch menu was the only one available at the time we came (2:30pm) however our waiter was very accommodating and graciously allowed us to order chicken tenders and fries. They were delicious! The brunch menu did have a great selection; just wasn't what we were looking for. We paired our "snack" with 2 classic glass bottles of Diet Coke (beware $4 for 8oz). The atmosphere was cozy, especially on a rainy NYC day. If you're in the neighborhood, we definitely recommend stopping in. read more

Amazing meal and atmosphere! Had Thanksgiving dinner with them - it wasnt home but it was great!

Perishing Square is in the heart of Midtown East right near Grand Central and offers great American food. Me and my girlfriend got a lot of different types of food Shrimpscargots - Shrimp baked with lemon. Potato Gnocchi - Rainbow Cauliflower, Green peas, Parmesan cheese French Onion Soup Chicken Pot Pie I've been here before for brunch which is enjoyable too. However, when we went here the service was pretty slow so hopefully, that's better next time! read more

We had Sunday brunch there, the food was delicious and served quickly. The waiter, however wasn't the most attentive. We asked for water and he either didn't tell his helper and completely forgotten. We had to asked the helper who brought our food for water and it was done immediately. Our waiter never once came to check on us or asked about our food. Instead he was talking to three other wait staff at their station. This was an unusual situation as we had very good service there in the past. read more

Was in the city and had some extra time before our tour, we stopped here around 12:30pm. They only had a brunch menu, but the food was pretty good. We all had different things, but we were all happy with our selections. If passing through grand central it is worth to stop by. read more

Quite possibly one of the best dining experiences I've ever had in the city. The restaurant itself reminds me of old New York, it's in excellent condition and well taken care of. they also offer outside dining which is a big plus for those that feel iffy about indoor dining still, The staff were top notch and very accommodating and prompt. I would highly recommend stopping in and I'm looking forward to dining here again in the future. read more

My wife and I had been here 15 years ago. We had an amazing experience. Food was absolutely delicious! Hostess was very dry and wanted to sit us in a dirty table! We asked her to please sit us elsewhere! Our server was attentive and good. We ordered - pancakes- very good - steak- mediocre - burger- mediocre - Fries- not good Won't be back! Not that it will matter- it's a tourist spot above all. It's a great location- people will always come here regardless of the reviews. read more

After a long day of touristy stuff, my daughter and I were starving and needed a quick meal to take back to the hotel. We sat at the bar to have drinks and order dinner. The oysters we ordered with our drinks. Surprisingly lovely set up for oysters. Our dinner was baked chicken with roasted veggies. A bone in thigh and breast. Seasoned perfectly. Buzz burger with fries (more like hash browns but seasoned well. Burger was tasty! The atmosphere in Pershing was really nice. Reminds me of an 50s era upscale dinner with lamps on tables. Outdoor seating available too. We enjoyed the bar which worked for us. read more

The food was good, that's it, just good. We went for breakfast last week and basic breakfasts, coffee and some orange juice. With tip we were above $100. That's just for breakfast. No drinks, appetizers or anything else extravagant. Gotta do better. Dunkin' Donuts cost us $16.83. read more

Excellent atmosphere, terrible food. This restaurant totally takes advantage of their location. The furniture, the open layout and the large windows make this place very inviting. However, do not be fooled. The food was simply terrible. Every time pieces of the "Buzz Burger" slithered down my throat, my feelings of regret and disappointment became stronger. These feelings of disappointment and disgust were also reinforced when the person I was with, had tasted the fettuccini pasta with chicken. Honestly, you can live your entire life happy, knowing you haven't had the displeasure of tasting this food. read more

My friend and I each had steak. NY strip and skirt. They were just meh. The fat on the Strip was hard and chewy--not edible. The mashed potatoes were just ok. My friend ate all of her skirt steak. The herbed butter and potatoes were good. Not anything to write home about. We just had minimal options in the area. read more

Had a bad feeling but wanted to cross a tourist trap off the list. The $22 tuna tartare was the worst rendition I've ever had. A small portion of tuna with an avocado cream and multicolor tortilla chips straight from a bag. You've got to be joking. The chicken pot pie for $25 had undercooked potatoes and carrots, small strands of chicken, and a tasty pastry. Anyone who eats here with any regularity is crazy. read more

Love the location outside of Grand Central. Love the ambiance. Came for brunch. Standard eggs hash browns. Solid. Service was friendly enough. I would return. read more

Everyone that's been to Grand Central station has passed by or seen this well-known restaurant. I've been here maybe 5 or 6 times and never disappoints. To me, it's like a fancy American style diner. The last few times I've always ordered the skirt steakand it never disappoints. For 35 bucks in manhattan, it's actually pretty fairly priced. The restaurant is beautiful and clean and gives off that cool NYC vibe. Service is friendly and attentive. Will be back! read more

This was our first stop after getting a ride into the city. We chose it for the convenience of location, & because it was attractive from the outside. My daughter & I were attired in travel comfort, while the rest of the patrons were more elegantly dressed. We felt out of place. In spite of that, we were greeted by a sweet hostess, who checked our baggage. (This will play another piece of the story, later.) The daughter & I ordered 2 entrees & shared between us; a chicken pot pie which was SO GOOD, & a chicken Caesar salad, which was fine. We drank water. The food was good, but not at all fancy, and prices within reason for NYC. Service was lovely. Then we left to visit The Summit, where we were told they didn't check bags. So we thought we'd check if the restaurant might hold our bags for us while we toured the building. They could not, as they were closing too early. HOWEVER- the manager broke out her phone & helped us find a storage facility, which was very nearby at a deli, & reasonably priced. She took the time to help us solve a problem that was percent NOT HER PROBLEM. And this type of kindness is why NYC is the best city in the world. I'm sorry that I didn't get names, because the staff was AMAZING. read more

This New York icon has become overpriced. The service is OK and the food is average, but the prices are outrageous. The restaurant needs a renovation to match its high price tag. It is no longer fun because of how costly the food has become. I guess this is a result of higher employment costs and inflation. read more

Under no circumstances come here when Ben is the bartender! Here now and Ben closed bar before 8:45 PM with absolutely no notice to anyone even though restaurant isn't supposed to close until 10:00 PM... Shame on management too as there are many new and better restaurants in and around Grand Central. It's as though they didn't even care. And Buzz, the owner, I expected better from you... Customer beware! read more

This place is insanely over priced, even for New York City. We had better food and higher quality drinks at Keen's and paid almost the same price. It should have been a red flag when there was nobody there on a summer Saturday night. Service was terrible and they add 20% gratuity automatically for parties over 5 people. $35 for a captain Morgan and come. Go anywhere else but here read more

What a great first place to go when arriving in the City. It is literally across the street from Grand Central Station. It has a fabulous casual vibe. Every table is spacious. The food at our table was great: the salmon burger is so large. The Waldorf Salad is unique and absolutely delicious. We were impressed with our server who got all our orders right. I was also impressed with the manager Bruce who kept the trains running. read more

Obnoxious and rude host. Avoid at all costs. Will never go back. Refused to honor our reservation

Great location across from Grand central station in midtown. Ive been here twice, once for brunch and once for dinner The lunch experience was better. The place was buzzing, lots people (presumably workers in midtown) the place seems like it had lots of energy. The food was good but not memorable. We had waffles pancakes and a burger. The dinner menu is very limited and the special of the day was a Talapia!! Really? Talapia is a special??? We had burgers and at gnocchi to which I need also added some shrimp. The gnocchi was dry and way too much parma cheese was added to it on top. Overall, a decent place with great location for some after work appetizers, but not really if you want a good meal read more
