    Was looking for breakfast spot close by in the Ozone Park and I am glad found 101 Cafe. The breakfast is fresh and tasty when compared to other places. The pancake taste great and is made fresh daily. It is a family business and runs with love. If you visit 101 Cafe, just ask for Mike/NAV who will take care with you and mention Leo refer you.

    Old school diner, everyone is polite and the food is always delicious. It's very clean here and the black coffee is really good. I love the free refills and great breakfast specials .

    Stuck at JFK so searched for a local spot and came upon this refuge about 10 min away. Wonderfully kind and attentive service and yummy breakfast and coffee, generously refilled with a smile. Just what we needed on a rough morning.

    Decent breakfast with decent price. I like the pancake there, well done. Food has good portion. Will come back

    One egg, sausages, home fries with toast, juice and coffee or tea

    A small local yet very antiquated American diner that offers simple and budget conscious meals known for breakfast and brunch. This small diner's interior is frozen in time of appearance with the standard booth tables, retro metal bar stools bolted to the ground with upholstered seat, white coffee mug wall clock with a moving silver spoon pendulum, wall attached three coffee mugs with steam emitted each imprinted words representing "cappuccino, coffee, latte." I like admiring their coffee mug clock and the three wall coffee mugs. 101 Cafe fends the standard small Mom and Papa business servicing the Southwest Queens, NYC community of Ozone Park. The breakfast menu is extensive yet very simple but a package. Yes, ice cream sodas and milk shakes with one or two scoops of actual ice cream continues to exist here for a throwback to 1910 era. I opt for one egg (any style), three sausages, home fries, toast with butter (jam is given as an option), small juice (apple, orange or cranberry), coffee or tea all inclusive for $7.75. I did not have to wait too long of an eternity for my order to arrive at the table. The female waiter appears baffled as I arrived alone to dine alone... oh well, that is my life now! Service is adequate, attentive and efficient. Patrons' bills are hand written on a "guest check" order pad which adds further to the non-technology 2017 era and rang on a old fashioned manual cash register. Delivery is available. No alcohol. Minimal TV screens are blaring and no annoying boisterously loud background music. Note: Closed Sundays year round.

I've been here many times over the years, and stopped there right before our Winter weather decided to take a dump on us. I ordered a BLT with extra mayo, fries, coleslaw and some pickles. It was very good. The place is clean and has the sort of decor you'd expect in just about any diner type setting. Now that it's stopped snowing, I was thinking of venturing there again tomorrow for some more. Cheers!

    Diners are an American staple for a casual dinning atmosphere serving American cuisine. To me,…read morediners are nostalgic, retro-style features of chrome stools bolted to the floor, booth tables, the hustle of staff, bus boys handling bus tubs for table clean-up and laminated large spiral book menus. Diners remind me of Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks" 1942 painting which encapsulate the atmospheric setting of an urban diner at night. I enter as usual, as a party of one, and the Maître d' ushered me to sit at a booth. I waited and waited to be service again. The male waiter at first took my order and subsequently later provided water. I needed cold water on a hot summer day for a cool down. This restaurant has its Independence Day holiday decorations lingering which is very simple and minimal. The menu has a Victorian horse carriage image with the driver dressed in black jacket suit coat tail and black top hat. This business name Esquire is relatable with attorneys. I have always worked with attorneys (past and present) and find them intelligent with perspective. The Original Worlds Fair $18.85 Saturday brunch for Belgian waffles and fresh strawberries with whipped cream was delicious. It was fresh, fluffy and delicious at $18.85 + NYC tax = totaling $20.50. I hoped for strawberry syrup the same embedded on ice cream as topping. I am always enamored with strawberries. The male waiter provided pancake syrup and butter for reasonable accommodation request. This male waiter did check-in during my meal which I was astonished and appreciative that I am, at long last, NOT invisible. Oh! I am human. I am a customer. I often dine alone. I exist to matter. I am one life in the smallest measurement. The check bill is distributed the old school way - handwritten on a claim check form perforated at the top. The air conditioner is fully functioning and I sustained a phlegmatic disposition. Facilities is relatively clean.

    A pretty solid Diner and a satisfactory trip to the way there. It's definitely a popular joint,…read moredespite the pretty massive size of the spot, there were a lot of people there on a Tuesday morning. Despite the traffic, service time didn't take a hit from it. The waitress kindly took my order and I got all of my food within 10 minutes. I had the Fried Mozzarella for a starter, Chicken Caesar Honey Wrap with waffle fries for the entree and Iced Tea because I figured dessert would be too much for both my appetite and wallet. The Fried Mozzarella pieces had a type of pull that you would expect and one I haven't seen in awhile. It was delightful in taste and texture. The Ceasar Wrap and Waffle Fries were very filling. It was very good but it felt like I over ordered on food again so I finished as much as I could. I've had a pretty good meal at a fair enough price. The place has a lot to offer so you'll find something there.

    I still can't not say this but NY Diners are not your typical diners for anyone who is not from NY…read more These diners are restaurants in disguise !!! lol But as any diner there is a very extensive menu and something for every palate. We came after church for a birthday brunch. And the tunes were all gospel. The serve me was nice and attentive. This menu is Caribbean at heart 'n You can expect the over the top desserts. I had their bacalitos and jerk Salmon and we had a cheesecake for dessert. This bread basket with onion bread and cornbread nice and warm is a hit !!

Now in my opinion it's at best-of-three star bakery Café ; everything changes new owner he's not so friendly prices are through the roof; the staff that he has he's very blessed because they are very professional friendly and fast..... Coffee is fantastic; their baked items are very good; prices are insane..... I get it we all know that inflation is up everywhere & on everything but a cup of coffee and my favorite a tea biscuit toasted with butter and jelly $7.00 that's insane.. I still patronize this business on special occasions and holidays like i said all their bakery items are good but for a everyday breakfast stop definitely not.... They do offer Breakfast & Lunch they have a full kitchen & menu; They do have plenty of seating; Parking out front on the boulevard it's a hit or miss; we have commercial trucks so we can't use their parking lot in the rear.... I do recommend if you're in the area; But would I drive out of my way to get here Nooooo Sir !!! Best Regards, Greg D & Family
