I came here on a Sunday night at 7pm with three other people in mid May. This is an abnormally beautiful and chic diner with a LOT of New York City history and cameos in famous TV shows and films. They also have the nicest outdoor structure venue I have ever seen in Manhattan with indoor dining available as well. We came on an evening with amazing weather so we decided to sit outside, which I normally do not enjoy but decided to try given the aforementioned superior outdoor dining facilities. The service was slow (as I usually find to be the case with outdoor dining) but good. The menu had an elevated selection compared to the traditional New York diner. The quality of the food was fine. Not bad, not great. I’m glad I finally experienced dining at this restaurant. I would go back if invited but I would not seek out another reservation.

We’ve been here many times, for dinner on week days and brunch on weekends. The cocktails are always solid, the food options never disappoint and the staff is excellent, warm and welcoming. This is why we keep coming back again and again. Totally recommended!

Omg! This was my first time trying this restaurant. I walk past it often after work and it is always packed. Today I decided to grab dinner and I’m so happy I did. My server Nicholas was absolutely amazing! I honestly thought he was the manager. He gave me great dinner suggestions and was very nice and attentive. I will definitely be coming back and bringing family and friends.
