  • Review 1 (2024-08-27 - Rating: 4)

    Community, for those who didn’t already know, is the sister restaurant to the famous Clinton Street Baking Co. whose pancakes continually topped the charts in the NYC. So naturally, the brunch menu is pretty bulletproof (especially the pancakes). I tried their brunch twice, and dinner menu twice, and all the time the food is good. Not as memorable as some of the iconic brunch restaurants but you got your money’s worth.Focus on the most recent dinner here:Appetizer:Bowl of BeetsThe name suggests simplicity, yet the flavors it delivered were more complicated and in depth. These are fresh beets with whipped goat cheese, toasted pistachios, and topped with balsamic vinegar reductions. I asked the reduction to be on the side as I am a dipper (like to dip things) who adjust my own sauciness. The ingredients were fresh, and it happened to be the beet season so the beets were naturally sweeter. The goat cheese is creamy and accompanied well with the beets and the nutty aroma of crunchy pistachios. The balsamic reduction is tangy and that acidity balances the dish.Entrees:Pan-seared salmonCrispy skin with tender interior. The portion is great (the fish is bigger than I imagined). I changed the sides from mashed potato to green beans. The green beans are a little undercooked, and both the beans and the spinach are on the saltier side. I asked to have the glaze on the side because i want to taste the salmon and I don’t like overly sweetened fish. The glaze is a bit less ginger forward than I wanted, tastes more sweet than savory.Maryland Crab cakesTwo fist-sized crab cakes with a ton of crab meat paired with GBD waffle fries and herby mayo underneath. This is the perfect bowl of comfort food if you are craving warmth. The crab cakes can be a bit stuffy due to crab meat density, but this is not a complaint as who doesn’t want more crabs in their crab cake. The fries are crispy and tantalizing on the tongue, perfect with mayonnaise sauce they provided. The lemon aids to counterbalance the flavor, and to offsets any possible greasiness.Our server did a great job to accommodate my requests, which I do appreciate. Yet the service isn’t the best. The water initially took forever to come and the check took a little while too. Overall, the food, the value, and the proximity (near Columbia campus) deserve neighborhood people a re-visit.

    I went there based on Michelin Guide this is one of the best breakfast place - The waffle was amazingly tasty and the coffee was pretty good as well.

  • Review 3 (2024-03-16 - Rating: 4)

    Stopped here for a quick bite to eat before heading to a Columbia womens basketball game. Although a bit pricey, the food was fresh and delicious. At the time that we went, it was surprisingly not crowded.The place was clean, roomy, and well lit with decor that made you feel at home. Our server was friendly, attentive, and helpful.

  • Review 4 (2024-04-11 - Rating: 4)

    Good tasting restaurant. I ordered the country breakfast which was good, just different.Firstly, the carrot hash was more like a fried potato mash. Good but misleading.Secondly, the biscuit was not soft, fresh, nor flavorful enough but still good.Thirdly, the eggs were perfect.Also helped to have a easy on the eyes waiter.Overall good experience, but names need adjusting as the plate seemed healthier than I would consider a country breakfast.

  • Review 5 (2024-12-28 - Rating: 5)

    First time. I went for the Pancakes since its a sister version of Clinton Street Baking Co. The Blueberry Pancakes were very very good. Hot n fluffy and full of FRESH Blueberries. I also had the Farmers breakfast which was nice. Carfot potatoes tasted very good, bursting with fresh carrots. We had a redy but there were seats available. We were a party of 3.

    I enjoyed very warm service here, My group had been served a simple and yet cool menu for Brunch and lunch meetings.We had tried Waffles, Chicken Sandwiches, Fries paired with cocktail drinks.I would say they serve very generous portions; I couldn’t and finish my chicken sandwich 😅.The staff is friendly and will pay constant attention to your table.

  • Review 7 (2023-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    Loved my dinner date here! I got the fish of the day sandwich which was branzino. It was so delicious and I will definitely be coming back to try other dishes. The other dish was the grain bowl with tofu. The rice was perfectly cooked and the tofu was deliciously marinated. For dessert we got the flourless chocolate cake which was extremely decadent and paired really well with the whipped cream and tart raspberry sauce

  • Review 8 (2018-10-23 - Rating: 5)

    Quality food and drinks. The atmosphere was clean and inviting. The service was good. The Tuna tataki was great! I also liked Buttered hot apple cider. They have outdoor seating available. I would like to come back for their breakfast. Highly recommended.I went back for lunch. Great food! We ordered Salmon scramble eggs, biscuit, apple ginger soda, they were all tasted great!

  • Review 9 (2023-07-23 - Rating: 5)

    The crab burger was the special of the day and were glad to have ordered it. The sweet potato fries complimented the burger well. We also ordered a chopped salad to accompany, and it tasted refreshing and light. Popular for a reason and worth a visit.

    Community is a wonderful neighborhood spot. Amazing breakfast lunch and dinner. Highly recommend!

  • Review 11 (2023-04-11 - Rating: 5)

    Community is our go to breakfast and family meet up. Food is awesome, service is perfect and quick. It’s a little crowded and noisy sometimes but that’s life in NYC.

  • Review 12 (2020-01-01 - Rating: 5)

    Ah- when was the last time I had such a proper salmon breakfast. The fish was moist, tender, and appropriately seasoned. Fried caper which came on top of green salad was a delightful surprise. Our server, whose name was Karen was the best server I’ve ever met, let’s say, for the past six months. She was attentive, joyful, and detail-oriented.

  • Review 13 (2020-08-25 - Rating: 4)

    I was visiting a friend in the area and she took me to Community.Very delicious food, great ingredients, and tasty dessert. A nice spot near Columbia University and Riverside Park.Now, the tables were set up community style, so there will be people sitting next to you. It did feel a little crowded at times because the tables behind us were quite close.Overall nice little spot.

    Restaurant was really pretty and the host was great. The blueberry basil lemonade was a 10/10 and the soft scrambled eggs with tomato jam were fantastic.

    Wonderful venue to sample street life, student hustle and bustle. Fast and efficient service, consistently fresh, wholesome and tasty food items. Good tap beers and cocktails.

  • Review 16 (2024-05-16 - Rating: 5)

    Awesome place, good food and friendly service. What more do you expect ?As it is far from the touristy part of Manhattan, you feel more the Upper West Side ambiance as local.Give it a shot if you are close… or far !

  • Review 17 (2024-08-10 - Rating: 5)

    One of the best places for breakfastI tried the blueberry pancakes ( it was heaven)The egg Benedict was yummy as well

  • Review 18 (2022-07-19 - Rating: 4)

    Yummy pancakes! I had the blueberry pancakes - the butter and maple syrup really complemented the fluffy pancakes quite well! I also had a classic lemonade, which I did feel was a little watered down. Regardless, service was great and we had a good time here!

  • Review 19 (2021-10-16 - Rating: 5)

    Eat brunch here and the food was delicious. Had a classic omlette with carrot hash brown and toast. The service was fast and price reasonable. The other dish is egg over biscuit.

  • Review 20 (2021-05-21 - Rating: 5)

    The rice bowl here is consistently delicious and fresh. I had the hamburger once and it was also very good, but obviously that requires a totally different mood.

  • Review 21 (2018-09-23 - Rating: 4)

    Good spot for healthy eats with nice outdoor seating and unbeatable prices. Wish there was more sausage on the biscuit sandwich, though - the ratio of sausage to eggs on the sandwich was really out of whack.

  • Review 22 (2023-04-19 - Rating: 5)

    An excellent restaurant choice in upper Morningside Heights in Manhattan. Just delighted w the place!

  • Review 23 (2021-08-22 - Rating: 4)

    I had a good brunch here! The servers were very nice and the vibe was pretty good too. I got the beef burger and it was delicious. The burger also came with a lot of fries so you definitely get your moneys worth.

  • Review 24 (2019-08-20 - Rating: 5)

    Great little resturant on the upper west side. Decent food and drink selection. Very relaxed.. pricing not bad for upper west side.. try the salmon burger... they got this one right..😊

  • Review 25 (2024-11-30 - Rating: 5)

    Cozy atmosphere with friendly staff and yummy brunch! I recommend the pancakes!

  • Review 26 (2024-06-05 - Rating: 5)

    I am a local for this place, and I have to say, everytime I come here they do not disappoint. Their Mac and cheese is to die for, and their burger is even better. I have been ordering here three times a week for the past ten years. I sadly had to end my streak 2 years ago on November ninth due to my ongoing brain surgery. Even through hardships community has always been there for me, especially their biscuits! SKIBIDI.

  • Review 27 (2024-09-21 - Rating: 5)

    The peanut chicken chop salad is one of the favourite salads in the city. It is flavoursome and filling.This restaurant is a great, local spot on the UWS.

  • Review 28 (2024-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing service. The food was delicious.

  • Review 29 (2024-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    Community has become my groups spot whenever there is a birthday or special occasion. Being near the Columbia campus and catering to many dietary needs we never leave unsatisfied. The options for meals vary widely so there is something for everyone and compared to prices in the area they compare around the same. The atmosphere is cool and relaxed and the service has always been very kind and knowledgeable about where the food is sourced and what is good.I recommend reserving before going, especially if you are a larger group and or going later in the evening as they can be fairly busy.

  • Review 30 (2024-04-19 - Rating: 5)

    The best brunch spot by Columbia Universitys campus. I loved the blueberry pancakes with warm maple butter and the brioche french toast. The biscuits are awesome too. Carrot hashbrowns are just ok. Overall yummy brunch.

  • Review 31 (2022-07-22 - Rating: 5)

    Food was amazing , it honestly had me wanting to go back the next day lol! I recommend this place to everyone 10/10

  • Review 32 (2022-04-24 - Rating: 5)

    The pancakes are stellar! It’s a little pricy but worth it if you’re in the mood for brunch. I also tried the fresh orange juice and it was delicious.

  • Review 33 (2024-07-19 - Rating: 4)

    The food was fresh and tasty, the staff was kind and accommodating, and the energy was enjoyable for an unexpected breakfast stop. I look forward to visiting again.

  • Review 34 (2024-04-14 - Rating: 4)

    I really didn’t know what to expect when I came to this restaurant. Mostly because I never knew about this restaurant until I saw it mentioned by The Carboholic on Instagram. She named this restaurant as one of the places to find the best pancakes in New York. That was the main reason I came here for brunch. I was pleasantly surprised how busy it was but it wasn’t rowdy or noisy and I was able to get a table easily when I came in. I liked how the ambiance was very family friendly. The service I received from the staff was excellent. They very kind and prompt. When I saw the menu I told myself that I’m definitely coming back because there were so many things I wanted to try. The latte I ordered was delicious. I loved how cute the foam art was. The Carboholic was right about the pancakes. They were very yummy. Fluffy but not dry. I love that this restaurant serves breakfast/lunch until 3:30pm everyday. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone because I, myself would definitely come back here from time to time. I’m so glad this restaurant exists.

    Very good place to have breakfast, the food is very tasty. I recommend this great place freshly and tasty!

  • Review 37 (2023-08-13 - Rating: 5)

    Few restaurants hit the mark quite like this one. The food was of superb quality and presentation. The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was bright and inviting. Overall, the experience was comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish, and this ended up being the perfect place to spend time with friends for brunch. I highly recommend the lentil salad with its caramelized leeks and the carrot hash browns. I really applaud their unique and fresh offerings. Not only is the food high quality, but it’s presented nicely and flavorful as well. Quality coffee here too, I gotta say. I have no hesitation recommending, and hope to be back someday.

  • Review 39 (2023-09-02 - Rating: 4)

    Lots of good dinner options, all very tasty. But the crispy rice and grilled pizza were a little tough. Service was great. Street noise if youre outside can be a bit much. Desserts were all wonderful.

    Love this place! But there’s a line for brunch.

  • Review 41 (2024-01-07 - Rating: 4)

    Very nice place. good vibes and atmosphere. i thought the food was nothing spectacular for the price we paid. pancakes for $18 is crazy to me. chicken sausage was a bit dry. good flavors with the sauces and jams they serve.

  • Review 42 (2022-02-16 - Rating: 4)

    What’s happened to the French Toast???? It used to be awesome on an unparalleled level but now something’s changed. And its descended into mediocrity. I can’t quite identify what. Did someone knock over the cinnamon bottle…maybe?

  • Review 43 (2024-02-17 - Rating: 5)

    Very pleasant experience. Trout Almandine and Guacamole appetizer were delicious. The coffee drinks were very good. Very friendly and attentive service. Ill definitely return.

    Awesome spot to get brunch with friends! Menu with a lot of options, super friendly staff, and the best ambiance (plus bottomless coffee)!

  • Review 45 (2023-10-12 - Rating: 4)

    I ordered a brunch sandwich (the BELT, which is a BLT with a fried egg added) which tasted good but I asked for a non runny yolk and guess what I got? Yup, runny eggs. Sigh...Also, be aware, prices are a bit high, I was charged 7 dollars for a juice glass size orange juice. The server said it was fresh squeezed but ... Sigh.

  • Review 46 (2018-08-14 - Rating: 5)

    Had the most terrific rice bowl. Prompt service & high energy! Definitely coming back

  • Review 47 (2024-05-20 - Rating: 5)

    I’ve been here before for lunch and tried the brunch menu this time.The waiter offered me the special (i forgot the name but it was nachos with avocado, sunny-side eggs and cheese). It tasted amazing. (Paid 33$ for dish and a Latte and I think that’s okay for New York prices and the quality of food I got)Would definitely come here again.

  • Review 50 (2023-07-25 - Rating: 5)

    I had the immense pleasure of dining here yesterday. The space is so beautiful and oddly homey feeling. My server Nick was a dream and made me feel good, his attentiveness and hospitality was refreshing. I started with the bowl of beets and they were good just wished they were warm.I had the Branzino, Im still thinking about the flavors and how perfectly it was cooked. The summer drink is so amazing, I definitely left with the best buzz. I was celebrating my bday and some of the staff sang to me, it was very nice because they did it with gusto.! I will definitely be back!!!

    Went here for lunch on 4-20-22 at 11:45. The restaurant was busy, but there was seating to found for our group of three. We sat outside. Our server was polite and efficient. We all enjoyed our meals of pancakes with blueberries, salmon burger with sweet potato fries, and the grilled fish sandwich with fries. The food was fresh tasting and well prepared.All in all a pleasant dining experience. I’d definitely return.

  • Review 52 (2022-09-18 - Rating: 5)

    If there is one place you should choose to eat breakfast if you want farm to table, noticeably fresh tasting breakfast with great service and nice seating, choose Community. My friend who recommended this restaurant wasnt kidding when she said this restaurant is great and affordable, considering they use clean ingredients. I am very happy I took up her recommendation, and its one of my favorite breakfast spots in NYC.

  • Review 53 (2023-09-18 - Rating: 5)

    Great selection of food. Healthy and so very tasty options. Nice outdoor seating in a casual setting. The service … David was a rockstar and was a total vibe. Service with style. Don’t forget dessert.

    I live downtown, but I was in the nabe for a visit. Lunch here convinced me that its 100% worth the trek uptown for another meal.

  • Review 55 (2022-07-19 - Rating: 5)

    Wonderful spot. If you’re lucky enough to snag a spot on the patio, you’re in for some excellent people watching. The food never disappoints, and the service is always warm and attentive. The kind of place you can take anyone and still feel a little bit ~elevated without obscene prices. My fave spot to sit down with a glass of something bubbly and read a book between classes. Never change!!!

  • Review 56 (2023-11-09 - Rating: 5)

    Relaxed neighborhood eatery with the usual breakfast basics served in often unusual ways. The coffee is excellent and the hash browns with grated carrots was surprisingly good.

  • Review 57 (2022-12-05 - Rating: 4)

    Went last month with my girlfriend to catch up after work for dinner. We were able to make their happy hour! The food and drinks were delicious. The only reason for four stars- they recently went under a name change and we were unsure if this was the same restaurant or if it was new ownership. The new place (same location) has similar food items, but it does have new menu options. Our waiter was so friendly and encouraged us to keep catching up and we never felt pressured to leave!

  • Review 58 (2024-10-25 - Rating: 5)

    One of my favourites - some of the best pancakes in the city!

  • Review 59 (2024-10-04 - Rating: 4)

    The food is alright, nothing special on the menu and not special in preparation. The only outstanding item is their Mac and cheese, but be careful as the quality when it’s delivered vs. ordered in person, sitting down is very different. The service here is wonderful, you’re never left waiting on anything. If any confusion occurs, it’s all handled very well, and they always allow adjustments to menu items. A very nice, UWS atmosphere, albeit a bit crowded due to nearby restaurants are college area.

  • Review 60 (2021-11-08 - Rating: 4)

    This place was pretty good. Im pretty sure the waiter got my order wrong (ordered farmers omelette or something to that effect..veggie omelette, and received ham n eggs), but I ate it anyway, and it was still tasty. hash browns incorporate shredded carrots, which is strange, but tastes good. Coffee was surprisingly good, and you get a decent amount. Prices are a bit high, but I think thats just the covid tax, and the area (right near Columbia, filled with students). I would definitely come here for breakfast again.

  • Review 62 (2020-03-09 - Rating: 4)

    Visited the place for brunch. I took us about 35min to be seated.The food is great, particularly the pancakes. We also had eggs Benedict and a salmon omelette. My only complaint was that the salad that came with my plate was already seasoned, which is something I don’t like. Nevertheless, a good spot for brunch. Prices a little on the high side, but consistent with quality.

  • Review 68 (2019-04-09 - Rating: 4)

    Amazing for brunch, even though you will have to wait. Does not take reservations and will give away your spot if you dont immediately reply. Ive never tasted eggs so fresh and I dream about their carrot hash browns. That said, dont come here for anything other than brunch unless you are a hardcore health nut and a bowl of beats is something you consider a meal.

  • Review 69 (2018-08-27 - Rating: 4)

    My favorite breakfast restaurant in Manhattan. They’re located Columbia University ‘s neighborhood. Blueberry pancakes are awesome! Especially maple syrup butter is excellent! Omelette is also fine. Most male staffs are very handsome, but skills are depending on person.

    Ive come here for breakfast and dinner and was super happy with the food both times!

  • Review 71 (2019-11-10 - Rating: 5)

    Ive only gone for their brunch, but each time I was impressed. Food has a clean and crisp sort of flavor to it. It just tastes like everything is made with fresh, high quality ingredients. Popular spot, expect a decent wait time if being seated on a weekend. Tables are small. Plates and cups need to be placed strategically if youre getting more than just a entrée by itself. If thats something that was bothering you, youll stop caring once you actually start eating. 5 stars.

    Nice place on the UWS. I was informed that place gets packed after a certain time time of the day and I can see why. I had the special, waffles with pear, pecans and syrup and it was great. The taste of the soft waffles had a hint of ginger. The sunshine juice consisting of carrots, lime and orange was great. Top service and a great place for breakfast/brunch!

  • Review 74 (2023-05-02 - Rating: 5)

    I liked the food a lot, my order (farmers plate) wasnt spectacular... It was decently cooked but no out of the ordinary flavors... But the food other people on the table had looked pretty spectacular and everyone was satisfied at the end of the meal. Great ambience and thanks for accommodating all 5 of us on a busy Saturday brunch time!

    🍽️Food: 5/5🤵🏽‍♂️Service: 5/5🪑Ambiance: 3/5📝Notes: This breakfast place is such a vibe. I love the staff and the food is really good. I do believe that this place could use a renovation as I felt the chairs were a bit broken (from the rubber piece). The pancakes are really good!! I would highly recommend having it with maple syrup instead of maple butter 😋

  • Review 83 (2017-07-27 - Rating: 4)

    Standard rustic American menu. Food is reliably good, but rarely fantastic. SO CROWDED for weekend brunch, though there are plenty of other wonderful places in the neighborhood. A bit expensive for what you get, but their weekday breakfast special is a great deal!

  • Review 84 (2023-04-21 - Rating: 5)

    This place is our neighborhood go to on the UWS. Healthy ingredients expertly prepared and lovingly served by a supremely attentive staff.Solo diners should opt for a seat at the bar, for faster service and better people watching.

  • Review 87 (2017-04-30 - Rating: 5)

    Brunch and dinner at Community are really reliable and always delicious with great specials. The staff is friendly and accommodates both large and small groups last minute. During the day it is lively with students and professors and at night populated by small groups and people on dates. Also the owners daughter is celiac, so there are lots of delicious gluten free options!

    Great quality and reasonably priced brunch and coffee spot on the Upper West Side with good vegetarian options and excellent service. Sometimes crowded, but I have never had to wait too long for a table if at all. The huevos rancheros with tofu scramble instead of eggs are my favorite. All eggs can be substituted with tofu scramble if you desire.There are free refills on the coffee and the coffee is extremely good. The jam, biscuits, and hash browns are also excellent.Edit:Finally tried this place for dinner. Macaroni and cheese and tomato soup were satisfying and tasty. My fiancée enjoyed the salmon bowl very much. The place was not as crowded for dinner as it is for brunch , but there still were no outdoor seats available. Overall this is a good place to go for dinner , but even better for brunch.

    This is a nice place for brunch. Decent sized food and service is good. Prices could be better, though. I had the pancakes and my friend had the other dish (dont remember the name) both were good.

    Went here today for breakfast, was here about a year ago for dinner. Two comments. First, its a GREAT choice for couples where one eats really healthy and the other likes things like burgers. Second, its really just pretty high quality, food wise. Nothing special, but quite a winner if youre in the neighborhood.Oh and by the way... pancakes were QUITE good. Almost to the level of Clinton Street baking co.

    Excellent food, comfortable atmosphere.

  • Review 94 (2019-08-29 - Rating: 5)

    I love taking my wife, friends, and family here for a dinner date, brunch, drinks—really any time! The seasonal cocktails are always on point. A choice spot for something simple like mac n’ cheese or a burger, and for a more robust farm-style dish as well. Sometimes there’s a long wait but that’s because it’s the place to be.

  • Review 95 (2023-04-08 - Rating: 5)

    Sandwich is delicious. The beets salad is good. Carrots hash brown is more like a normal hush brown.

  • Review 96 (2022-03-07 - Rating: 5)

    Very very good breakfast! They serve real food, for example, homemade jam. The service is ok.

    Fantastic meal plus great service. I will definitely be back here for many meals to come.Ordered the veggie sandwich with bacon which was soo good. Came with a side salad simply dressed. Friend ordered burger with sweet potatoes fries substituted.GREAT MEAL!

    Wonderful brunch. We sat in their side room. It is much smaller and the noise much lower level than the main dining area. Loved it. Service was excellent considering time of day.

  • Review 100 (2019-08-30 - Rating: 5)

    Community is my go to place. The food is consistently good, fresh and economical. The waitstaff is knowledgeable and friendly. Super convenient, just blocks from the #1 train stops at 110th or 116th Street. Please note, they close every day around 4PM to prepare for the dinner rush. Bummer when you need a Community fix at 4:15!

    We went to the decorator show house on 106 on the way back downtown. We stopped and saw how crowded it wasn’t decided to try it. We sat down great waiter, easy service, pancake was good just a little bit too rich for me. And $18 for pancake a bit much but this is a New York.

    Great brunch spot on the UWS! Always a wait, so recommend coming earlier (Ive always waited for about 30 mins). Their blueberry pancakes are delicious! Whenever I have friends visit, this is always a must on the list!

    The market veggie bowls with a protein on top are the way to go! Also love brunch here, and it’s a big space with lots of outdoor seating so you usually don’t have to wait forever for a table for 2-4 people.

    Thoughtful and healthy food, great staff, and a lovely open atmosphere. Only 4 stars because the veggie burger was a little messy (but delicious) and I wish there was a little more beer selection.

  • Review 117 (2018-06-13 - Rating: 4)

    Comfortable with a rustic flair. The menu has a broad variety of options that will satisfy the vegetarians and carnivores in your group. I enjoyed the artisan sourdough with sweet garlic spread and a local draft. Service was prompt and friendly.Looking for the best Seinfeld fan experience? Skip the standard diner fare across the street, ask for a window seat and then enjoy a great mea with the view you remember from TV.

    If they say the kitchen is backed up or if they look really busy, it isnt worth the wait. After 15 minutes of waiting for a table, it took over an hour for the food to come out.

  • Review 130 (2016-07-15 - Rating: 4)

    Oh, my Sweet & Sara toasted coconut marshmallows, how do I love thee? Whenever Im in Whole Foods, I simply must pick up a box, even though the price makes my hair stand up a little each time ($6.99 for 12 pieces, although I know you can get them cheaper online). But oh boy, do they make me happy. Their soft, melty, divine, marshmallowy goodness is like desert therapy. I just cant live without them.

  • Review 134 (2022-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    Incredible food and drink! I happened upon Community Food & Juice while I strolled Manhattan looking for a place for breakfast. The French toast was delectable, and I paired it with a gorgeous hot buttered rum which I wish I had the recipe for. Sitting outside and sipping on that while watching the world go by was a great life choice for me to experience NYC traveling solo.Also not to be understated, the staff is top notch attentive, knowledgeable and kind!

    It is a lovely place with a peaceful atmosphere. And the food is gooooood! I am from Mexico originally and I finally found a place with very good huevos rancheros! Served with tasty non-greasy homemade tortillas, fresh salsa, and zero cheese (like the Mexican gods intended) just delicious overall. Great place for a nice meal and catching up with friends.

    Service and food are good. There is a very good selection on their menu and things to pick from if you have some dietary restrictions. My only complaint is sometimes there are some noisy demanding people dining there. I find it disruptive.

  • Review 140 (2024-06-09 - Rating: 4)

    Excellent (but pricey) food. I upgraded from the pastrami on rye to the reuben, and had perhaps the most flavorful and tender toasted pastrami sandwich I have yet experienced outside a delicatessen. Atmosphere is relaxed, chill, and hip. Service was friendly and efficient, but the fairly long (20+ minutes) wait for our food was a little ridiculous given how unbusy the dining room was when we visited.
