Try the vanilla milkshakes!! Amazing!!
Leslie QDecember 4, 2013
My latest experience was not-so-good—enough to make me question ever coming back here again.
Cat PetersJanuary 13, 2013
Call ahead to maker sure they have milkshakes!
Julie TangJanuary 19, 2012
Burgers are good but go w/fries option - the greens are literally just a few lettuce leaves
michael liuAugust 20, 2012
This place is definitely just selling the atmosphere. The food it's alright. A bit overpriced. But the service is good.
Mark GoodacreAugust 24, 2013
Excellent Smutty Nose IPA on tap.
Sukari BrownJanuary 16, 2013
Get the steak and fries!!!! Amazing
Mallorie RosenbluthSeptember 7, 2013
This place misses with its efforts to be an upscale/ hip diner and comes off as trying too hard. Selection doesn't meet diner cravings, aren't particularly good, and are overpriced. Avoid delivery.

Good service. Friendly staff (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Tanya RobinsonAugust 1, 2013

3 words- duck confit hash.

food is good but a bit pricey for standard eggs and bacon.
Tanaya CFebruary 11, 2013
Bathroom are unheated. Not totally uncommon in Manhattan, but sharing. Agree with other reviews, service is lackluster.

Priscilla LugoJanuary 20, 2012
Disgusting and over priced. Had a burger and it was so undercooked the patty was mush. Friend had a chicken Cesar salad and it had anchovies in it. Yuck!!!!
Nick GigliaOctober 23, 2012
Bowery Special
Peter T.March 17, 2012
Never opt for the salad. It's seriously 5 pieces of drenched lettuce.
Adrienne WJuly 1, 2012
The fries!!!
Sarah NelsonMarch 13, 2012
on my list- brunch?
Ben MartinekNovember 26, 2012
Rather underwhelming... Bad service, largely mediocre food, and their milkshake machine was broken. Three requests to get a drinks. Keep walking down the street...
The Lo-DownJanuary 17, 2012
Just so you know, whelks = sea snails.
David MichaelFebruary 16, 2013
Sadly not your usual sized portions for a diner and over priced.
Tony HaileFebruary 20, 2012
Chef refused to do a lobster roll without mayo (after the waiter checked and said they could) because it wouldn't look right #fail
Lisa LMarch 7, 2013
$12 for a grilled cheese and fries. Too expensive.
ChansonJuly 27, 2012
The food is decent. Nothing special but not bad either. It is, however, waaaay overpriced.
AP du PlessisNovember 24, 2012
Not the best pancakes in town anymore.
EvanJanuary 18, 2012
Still needs some fine tuning but has potential.
kavita kulkarniJune 29, 2013
don't come here. C- experience
waisum tFebruary 5, 2012
Overpriced mediocre food. Skip the ramekin sized mussels. However, the charcuterie plate was decent.
Steph MJuly 4, 2012
Horrible service. You have to beg them to take your order, pay, or bring you the food you ordered
