This place was really good. Creative and tasty burgers. Lots of diners have really bland food but not this place. Good prices and big portions. Chill and busy place. It's definitely one of the better diners I've been to.

Visited A Fantastic Diner Restaurant transformed by Gordon Ramsey’s TV Show-Kitchen Nightmare! Absolute fantastic place and seeing the changes are real. Order Fish & Chips they are 100% awesome!!!!! Love this place and will visit here again.

The cheese burger and waffle French fries are a tremendous choice. I love the onion rings and strawberry cheesecake. I also took an order of coffee to go and it was the best I ever consumed. Nice simple menu with fresh and delicious recipes. Very clean and sanitary. The restrooms had plenty of hot water and soap. Attend!!!!

I've eaten here twice, once for dinner, and celebrated my birthday dinner here. Food is great, services excellent. It is what a dinner is supposed to be, good food and good fun.
I also saw the episode of Bel-Air Diner on, "Kitchen Nightmares". I hope everyone remembers that a lot of these reality shows are scripted. None of these reality shows are real. Take a moment to think. Who would expose their business in this way, and so badly? No one. People need to realize that.
As well, the New York City Health Department is most strict regarding restaurant inspections. Had that been the case, such as on, "Kitchen Nightmares", the health department would have shut them down completely, until all was remedied that was seen on that show.
I'm going to go eat there again, and I hope I have as pleasant a time as I had the previous two times I've dined there.

What a place! I’d done a bit of research on this place and always wanted to go so in our last day on our trip to NYC we did. What a quaint setting and you go back in time as you walk through the doors! It has a great history too. The staff were great and the service was excellent. Originally, we only went there for coffee but when we keep seeing all the amazing food coming out, we asked for a food menu. There was so much to choose from and the food lived up to are expectations. Prices were also good too, a noticeable difference from Manhattan. We would recommend taking a small trip out to this place and it’s only 25 mins away by subway inc walking. It was worth the trip for us and finished off a perfect trip to NYC!

This is a really nice classic diner with an immense selection of food on the menu which can be a little intimidating. The menu spans from regular breakfast items eggs and home fries, to a standard lunch menu with sandwiches and burgers, all the way to fresh lobster (they have a live lobster tank by the entrance). There was only about a 10 minute wait on a Sunday morning for breakfast and the service was prompt and friendly. The food was also really good. The only downside was that the floors weren't very clean and the bathrooms were kinda gross to be honest. I'll still come back for breakfast on the weekends though. Just hope they pay more attention to regularly cleaning the bathrooms.

I am impressed with the service and the quality of the food that the shop provided here. Not to mention the portion size is generous!! My friend recommended this American diner and we both enjoyed our brunch together.

I had a great experience and would highly recommend it if you ever around Broadway in Queens. You will love this place like I do.

Our server's name is Fausto Martin G. Thanks for your excellent service!! We will be coming back!!!
