The best place in THE WORLD!!! Becareful you may start suffering withdrawal if you don't go often enough
Emma McTagueApril 24, 2017The line can be crazy, but if you time it just right it might not even be that bad.
Tom's no longer consistently stocks real maple syrup, so BYOS.
Kristine KippinsSeptember 25, 2011Whatever they offer you to munch on while you're in line -- EAT! The lemon enhanced sausage is amazing.
Khadine AzeezMay 13, 2013There's always a wait and long lines, but they give u lil snacks while u wait. The place is small and crowed. Breakfast is mediocre, nothing special. Try the cherry lime Rickey!
✨🎶La Toya Lewis💛July 5, 2011Even though the line is out the door, they give you all sorts of little treats while you wait! Read more
Aziz AlaouiFebruary 6, 2012The place is good overall, I just hoped they'd make an effort to make the food more presentable !
Christopher TranMay 23, 2011Always a good stop for an old-fashioned breakfast. Nothing says no-work-weekends more than going to a diner for breakfast. Read more
WanderflyAugust 5, 2010A neighborhood must for those looking to enjoy authentic homey meals at a low price amongst locals.
Jeffrey BeardOctober 14, 2010The pumpkin walnut waffle was outstanding, especially with the cinnamon whipped butter. Awesome!
If you get here before 10:30 on the weekends, you'll usually beat the crowd
The turkey melt is great. Comes with stuffing and gravy, like a Thanksgiving leftover sandwhich.
Alicia KachmarMarch 15, 2009(The one in Brooklyn!) This is THE quintessential diner experience. Order the lemon-ricotta pancakes, a cherry lime rickey and maybe an egg cream.
Sarah BookbinderSeptember 6, 2011Long lines so not the best place to go on your way to work [!] but it's worth the wait. Read more
