    Exactly why you’d expect from a huge diner across from Grand Central, moderate food, high prices.

    For breakfast, it appears that your best bet is to make a reservation otherwise you may end up waiting in line for 10-15 minutes. Not too bad unless you're in a rush, but then why stop for breakfast?

    Terrible service - there was close to a dozen waiters who completely ignored us after we were seated, to the point we just went elsewhere
