If you're ordering something sweet, get a side of the fried green tomatoes to cut down some of my he sweetness
Christopher GurrMarch 31, 2013
Prepare for a wait but know that they're very much on top of the waiting experience. You give them your mb number and they text you the wait estimate and again when your table is ready.
Omer ZachMay 7, 2015
Come early on a weekday morning to avoid most of the wait.
Julie JohanssonOctober 7, 2014
Amazing breakfast. The Spanish scramble was really good
Rozanne ElsJune 20, 2018
Ordered such a yum omelette with goat's cheese. And the coffee and vibe are great.
M. Orçun ŞahinJune 19, 2016

Jameel NoorJuly 4, 2016
Fantastic place for breakfast or brunch. Don't miss out their blueberry pancakes
Abhishek PillaiJune 28, 2016
Delicious chocolate chip pancakes and warm maple syrup!!!
Miss PiggyJune 12, 2014
Who says you can only have pancakes for breakfast? Skip the morning rush and go around 4pm. They may taste even better if you don't have to wait!
Amélie AlexandreJuly 23, 2014
Start with the scones... It goes up and up from there! Plus: brinner (breakfast for dinner). Golden.
Collette SApril 25, 2016
The Buttermilk Biscuit Sandwich is amazing!
Léna Le RollandFebruary 28, 2014
Pancakes and bacon (of course) it's really really good.
Simon & SchusterMarch 16, 2011
The blueberry pancakes at this NY restaurant have people lining up on weekend mornings. Try making them at home. Find a recipe for the lip-smacking goodie in JUST MARRIED AND COOKING. Read more
ZozelaOctober 16, 2012
the place to be in NY. Unforgettable food experience! HUUUUUGEEEE PANCAKES!
Cassie PMarch 28, 2014
It's a small place so be prepared for a wait. If you're a pancake lover, I would suggest for the banana walnut.
Sarp ErkayaMay 7, 2015
Always crowded!! But; Best. Pancakes. No discussion... No competition. Come early during the week.
winMarch 4, 2015
Best stacks ever. I don't think anyone can top those pancakes.
HeidiMarch 30, 2018
After they text you, you have 10 mins to claim your table. We waited an hour for that text (2 ppl). Much better pancakes elsewhere (lemon ricotta at Sarabeth’s). Overhyped for sure. Nice service tho.
Elizabeth BursteinAugust 21, 2019
Absolutely lovely blueberry pancakes! And fresh-squeeze OJ. Although the ambiance sucked!
Eric HoApril 10, 2016
Loved their chicken and waffles!
Hailey FriedmanFebruary 6, 2016
Voted the #1 favorite Brunch spot in NYC. According to this list: http://www.topfivecityguide.com/topfive-best-brunch-in-nyc/
Kathy YeuDecember 18, 2011
Don't let the line make you think you'll get in when they open. The parties in front of you will grow as those in front let their friends in. There should be a rule.
JennJanuary 13, 2012
Been here 5+ times
Their blueberry pancakes with warm maple butter are amazing! Oh & the sugar cured bacon is a must try as well. Yum yums :-)
Alice NamMarch 24, 2016
They've expanded their space. The best pancake
Anoop RanganathSeptember 15, 2011
It's a long wait, but they'll take your number and give you a call when your table is ready. It doesn't matter what you order as long as you make sure to have a biscuit on the side.
Em LMarch 25, 2012
Came here for dinner, the blueberry pancakes were delicious, but I'm more into savory dishes and the shrimp and grits were amazing.
Sara RadakovicOctober 17, 2016
We waited 40min for a table (reservations aren't possible).After we sat we waited for our meal for another 40min and impressions?Overrated and average place that has high rating for no reason
Jing Jing LiAugust 19, 2014
Weekday lunch is still at least a one hour wait in the summers but the sugar cured bacon is well worth it.
Kimmie OhhJanuary 4, 2020
You have to get the chicken&waffles & the blueberry pancakes!!!
Tamara JadeApril 1, 2016
Go early! And get the banana walnut pancakes!!!
Jen TomJanuary 17, 2010
i think they have the best pancakes in nyc. always a line but they do pass a plate of samples to keep us waiting and not mind an hour or so...also have had their southern breakfast which i also adore.
Leanne ZMay 2, 2016
Come for dinner too! Mac and cheese and chicken and waffles were on point.
Sam KrasnikSeptember 3, 2017
Worth the wait. Simple but delicious. Loved the potato pancakes
Maryam AlyFebruary 3, 2014
The Southern breakfast is delicious, but be sure to bring cash!
PostabonJune 9, 2010
Check this place out on Wednesday nights. GetButtermilk fried chicken & honey-Tabasco with a crispy Belgian waffle and warm maple butter, served with a cold bottle of Rogue Chipotle Ale for $20. Read more
KevinJuly 17, 2010
Getting there 'early' isn't enough. Get there yesterday if you want a reasonable wait time. Overall, the food was very good and the service was just as good. You MUST have the sugar cured bacon!
Tim YoungAugust 7, 2013
A great place to have Breakfast for Dinner and Amazing Deserts!
Fatima BukhamseenMarch 4, 2016
Egg Benedict and blueberry pancake are the best 😋
Colin LeeApril 15, 2018
Use the no wait app when you're within 1 mile. Otherwise pancakes are bomb!
Will GarréJune 9, 2012
Blueberry pancakes are very good. They put a blueberry syrup/sauce on top. Blueberries in the batter, too. Fresh OJ rules.
YingFebruary 25, 2014
Tasty! But the pancake is too big...even for a pancake addict like me!
DanJanuary 20, 2016
Pancakes! Blueberry pancakes with maple butter syrup are incredible.
Chad HornerAugust 11, 2015
the blueberry pancakes are very good, but don't expect them to change your life.
EdJuly 2, 2017
Everything on the breakfast menu my favorite is the blueberry pancakes
David FiresterSeptember 12, 2016
One of the best places in NY for breakfast. The pancakes are amazing.
Alissen WilliamsFebruary 21, 2014
BEST PANCAKES IN THE ENTIRE CITY HANDS DOWN! However, be very prepared for a longgggggg wait for a table....
OrionJune 18, 2012
Banana walnut pancakes with warm maple butter, mmmmmm. I am so happy I live right around the corner now :D (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Susan ClaxtonAugust 22, 2011
Go when it first opens or you will be waiting in line forever. I recommend sharing here since everything is so tasty you can't get just one thing!
Gansevoort Hotel GroupNovember 2, 2011
