Mike NickersonMarch 22, 2016Avoid coming here on a weekend if you can. Much more enjoyable on a weeknight!
Taj W.March 12, 2011Come get a bite at Cafeteria. Great restaurant, even though the staff are somewhat aloof. A lot of cuties if that's what you are looking for.
Daniel M.February 26, 2012The ice cream here is homemade! Order the kids dessert - 3 scoops and a cookie. :)
Akansha SharmaSeptember 22, 2013Mac and cheese spring tolls with smoked Gouda sauce. Do you even have to think twice?
Erin DomingoJuly 10, 2011Omg get the bacon Gouda Mac and cheese, fried calamari and coconut martini amazing!
Francis UdlerSeptember 3, 2014Its ok, slightly over rated. Got the classic burger its okay nothing special. Fries are good and desert looked pretty yummy. Mac and cheese might be the way to go.
Daphne GaoJanuary 16, 2016got the fried chicken and mac attack as suggested. both were pretty bland, nothing special. a little loud but upbeat atmosphere. wait time was 15 minutes around 11
Jackie LopezApril 16, 2010Go to Cafeteria and order the lavendar & lychee cocktail-it's delicious. Try their turkey burger with avacado. It's amazing- best turkey burger ever!
Unbelievably delicious brunch! The smoked salmon Benedict is amazing!
Caryl Marie PerezAugust 16, 2011U can't leave here without trying the cheddar and fontina Mac & Cheese, it's like heaven in ur mouth!!
Jenn CJuly 20, 2011Order the Turkey Burger. It is amazing especially with the sauce and avocado that is in the burger!
An XiaoJuly 27, 2010Super crowded almost any time of day, so be sure to get there early or make reservations. I like the mac and cheese options.
Мария БелоусоваJuly 5, 2012Probably not the best food in town, but a good option if you want to sit by the water and have a nice lunch or dinner.
Jason KooJune 8, 2013Do not get the blue crab roll. It's terrible. I'd stick to the Mac and cheese plates here--those stand out. And the old fashioned is fucking great.
Took them 10 mins to come say hi to me at my table then give me hot water to drink! But calamari is on point
DelonOctober 10, 2014Usual go to after hours. Always pretty decent. Packed if you try to get here after hours.
Order Mac and Cheese Spring Rolls, Chicken Fried Salad and the Blackberry Lemonade
Tara PlayfairOctober 9, 2012Mac & Cheese will make you a believer!!! Perfect post party spot for food!
Try the deep fried oreos for dessert. They're beyond amazing.
Mac Attack! Get ya some of their mac n cheese dishes ... uber good.
StonehengeNYCNovember 30, 2011Our obvious (but excellent) pick for eating in the wee-hours. Mac and cheese, duh.
Justin SchierDecember 28, 2011Love this place BUT... Randomly closed when you expect it to be open - call first. Also, no grilled cheese at night??? WTF??
