We chose this restaurant for our first dinner in New York while on holiday because of the proximity to our hotel just round the corner. We were travelling with our teenage daughter and her friend who is vegetarian. We were looking for an authentic diner experience but with something for everyone. The menu was perfect for us. The staff were very welcominging and the food was great.

I was disappointed. We arrived around 5:20PM as a family and thought we had plenty of time for a 7Pm Broadway show. We ordered and then waited 40 minutes for our food. It was not very crowded, and the waiter did not come over to apologize or even see how we were doing. My daughter ordered a shake, and they accidentally made it with coffee, or my waiter got the order wrong. In any case, they had to make another. The food was good, but small portions for the price. I liked the atmosphere and location. I was hoping for much bet... read more

Did not have over 10 dishes in a not so large menu. Quite unpleasant.

Convenient to the Lyric Theater and dinner between part 1 and 2 of Harry Potter.

Very limited vegan or vegetarian options. The options there are were either salty or just okay. They would not diverge from the menu to accommodate.

Interior is clean and looks like Pullman train car styling. The chicken pot pie is massive and outstanding! Top is like a huge French puffed pasty. People walking by stopped to ask about it. Must try it! It’s great...

Made reservation, kept it on time. Waited 20 minutes at our table while several servers and a restaurant manager passed by several times. Waiter eventually arrived and apologized for the neglect. Burgers were good, but their "celebrated" reuben was barely warm, although the meat was tasty. Overpriced.

My go to place for a tasty quick bite before of after a Broadway show. This time, my dining companion and I had the Veggie burger. The waiter recommended the burgers and they were really good. They were juicy, moist and full of flavor. I was surprised how quiet the diner was for a Friday night at 6:00 pm, it usually is packed and loud. We were able to talk without competing with other table conversations. We skipped dessert this time, but we will be back soon for something “sweet and sinful.”
