Mike N.December 11, 2012Huge menu! Great prices. If you can't find something here that fits your appetite AND budget, stay home. The girl at the front counter should learn to put down her cell phone though.- My favorite diner outside New Jersey. Fast friendly service, great food, nice portions, and reasonable prices. Great place to grab a bite while waiting in a LGA flight!Upvoted 2 weeks ago
Very tasty food, friendly staff, clean and affordable prices...you will love it!! Btw do not eat anything before you order a 9oz Texas Burger. It's SO filling!!
Aaron GelbmanFebruary 28, 2017Great place to wait in between LGA flights. Not the best service but the food is the best you'll find in the area and it's easy to work there- Beta CoronelDecember 20, 2013It's a time warp but the food is traditional NY diner style=amazing. Had breakfast&it was SO GOOD. Staff is nice...tip them well!
Philip SmithAugust 10, 2014Perfect place to stop before flying out of LGA. 3 blocks south of the National Car Rental office; gas station nearby too.- Heath GarvinApril 3, 2015Solid burgers and great waffle fries. Try one of the daily soups, you won't be disappointed.
Nick WeissingerOctober 4, 2015Great service. Good coffee. Potatoes were under cooked, hash & eggs was ok.
The scallops here are the truth. Surprisingly succulent and delicious for diner seafood.
