    Belgian Waffles with Eggs (2) & Bacon and strawberry pancakes & American omelette
    Alisha K.

    Service was awful. Absolutely distasteful. Our server Mary was not intent on giving patience, not speaking up and thus getting irritated when WE couldn't hear HER, the menu apparently is not written correctly if I can order a hot chocolate but you can only get one size unless it's takeout-WHICH IT DOESN'T SPECIFY, made a comment on the food we were ordering in comparison to our group, never checked on us, ignored me the first time I tried to let her know we needed the bill so I needed to try again-EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS LOOKING DIRECTLY AT US, and lastly I had to go up to pay the bill when usually someone comes to handle the transaction. As a former waitress and someone who has worked other customer service jobs, this was not it. I would 100% not operate like that and have never. The food was not as great as it was last week, either. The service alone will not allow me to return after being a frequent visitor of 8 years! Hard pass for me.

    Dollar store hash browns
    Ruben C.

    What an adventure in disappointment. Been coming to this diner over 40 years. The ambiance is fine. Brought grandma and daughter for dinner. Gramma ordered omelette with hash browns. It came with two over-fried dollar store frozen hash browns. My gyro platter came with over-fried onion rings and the gyro lamb was hard enough to eat as jerky. But over 40 years, you can't expect perfection every time. However.. When I bought this to the attention of the waiter, his response was " I only serve the food. " He said he'd bring the manager who never came. No offer to take anything off the $82 bill. I paid at the counter and said I wouldn't pay to for service and food. Cashier turned away completely indifferent. I used to take clients and public officials to eat here. NEVER AGAIN!!! Classic on Jamaica and Esquire on Woodhaven will graciously have my business from now on.

    I like diners for the variety cuisine of food listed in the menu. Ahh.. diners is the embodiment of American optimism and nostalgia for a sense of comfort, sustainability and stability. Breakfast served all day adds another positive aspect to the American diner experience. It has been a long while since I had Belgian waffles. Belgian waffles with turkey sausage accompanied with butter and syrup $14.50 which was a good value. Customer service is average and attentive as I dine alone. Atmospheric conditions are of standard American diner - relaxed and family oriented. Thankfully, no boisterously loud music here. Takeout menu is available for grabs as well as a catering menu. The takeout menu is a full-scale menu selection in a booklet form like a event program. Note: This diner operates 24 hours.

    Food- 3/5 Service- 3.5/5 Ambiance- 4/5 Overall I'd give Atlantic Diner a solid 3/5. Let's start with the food. Everything tasted pretty standard. The broccoli had no flavor. The home fries were okay. The service was good. We had to stop other servers a few times, and the staff seemed like they were okay with it. I'm sure they're used to it. It was nonstop crowded and also a Sunday so I don't know if that made a difference. The seating was tight and the diner looks to hold about 50 people in the front dining area where I sat. Thumb up and would return. If you're looking for a larger portioned, moderately priced, basic breakfast, stop by!

    scrambled egg with ham on a roll
    Paula L.

    i'm not a huge fan of diners, but I'm happy they're still around. Whenever I get my car in for an oil change, I always come to this diner. It is solid. And today I had a perfect scrambled egg with ham on a roll. And a very nice cup of coffee. The staff is very nice and efficient. The place is clean.

    Chicken Parmigiana Panini
    William G.

    I gave this place 3 starts for being able to accommodate a large group on short notice. We all gathered here after a funeral to eat and catchup. The service was all over the place. When we first got there they seemed to be very attentive but as time went on they slowly began to fade and become nonexistent. I ordered the chicken parmigiana panini which had very little resemblance to a panini. The bread was hero bread with thin strips of chicken cutlet that couldn't accommodate the excessive amount of hero bread, with mozzarella cheese. The marinara sauce has absorbed into the bread and therefore made the "panini" super dry. I had to ask for a side of marinara to help with the dryness. When a place has pages upon pages of menu items, it's probably not going to be a good experience. Or maybe that's just my experience. Call the dish what it really is but don't slap chicken on hero bread, throw it under a panini press that can't fit the amount of bread and then call it a panini. Lastly, the prices are RIDICULOUSLY unreasonable. I seen an egg salad sandwich with bacon for $14.95. I'm one and done with this spot.

    Shirley temple
    Shawnie J.

    It's in the corner of a busy street but they conveniently have a parking garage. I had the two eggs over medium with turkey sausage and fries, the food did not please my taste buds especially the turkey sausage. The Shirley temple was nasty bland and tasted like seltzer. The fries were fries and the appetizer sampler was just frozen fried food whatever. The cost and the flavor do not go together. The waitress was sweet and attentive and the place looks clean but I'm not going back.

The buffalo chicken sandwich was VERY spicy but delicious. Crisp fries were on point. Wings were large and great crisp lemon pepper rub was just the right blend and the sweet chili was not 'hot' at all (which was great for me). I had the best mozzarella sticks ever with just right marina sauce. Absolutely excellent service. Place was not crowded and thus one person (Anthony) was all roles except the cook and was very expedient! It is a local neighborhood restaurant and thus the ambience reflects that....so while the chairs don't encourage sitting for long time and the outside does not scream come in, the music was really good and had us singing along. When back in NYC, will definitely return.

The service: One a person love what they do, they do it and the shine. O.T was our server. O.T was on point. Before you thought it, he was on it. It's like he has a sixth sense. O.T was very attentive and very engaging with not only my family, but with all of his other customers as well. O T interacted with my family and we loved it and him.

O T should be employee of the century! The Food: I forget what my daughter had but there were no complaints, my granddaughter had Za, something that ever kid likes. My grandson is sd burger and fries. I should have had that but I opted for the sampler which consisted of pig n blankets, wings, and sliders. Every thing was really tasty but a bit too much for me.

    Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.

It featured a crispy, sugar-glazed exterior and a soft, chewy interior, topped with truffle cheese and served with a truffle butter dip; the pairing was superb, and it tasted great both on its own and with the dip. For the main course, I ordered the miso-glazed black cod. The flavor was flawless, and while the portion was small (which was acceptable), the pool of broth accompanying it was completely unnecessary; it was inedibly salty, so what was the point of serving it? After finishing the fish, I was left with a plate full of broth, rendering the plate unusable. Plus, it was overpriced; for this dish, you're better off going to Strip House Strip House remains the undisputed king of this dish in New York. A friend ordered the chicken parmesan. It was just average. Another friend ordered the short rib stroganoff. The flavor was decent, but it was far too rich and heavy. As someone whose palate is split 50/50 between Western and Chinese cuisine, I could manage only five bites at most. If you have a palate that prefers 100% Chinese food, proceed with caution on this dish. Friends ordered sides of mac & cheese and mashed potatoes. These are dishes originally meant for low-income Americans to fill up on cheaply; there's no limit to how good they can be, but also no floor to how bad they can get. Both were on par with the average quality found in upscale restaurants. Honestly, these are two dishes I would never order myself. To sum up: the atmosphere was great. It's also hard to get a reservation; the place was packed when we had lunch at 2 PM. Aside from that monkey bread, I didn't feel like anything else justified the price or offered something you couldn't find elsewhere. I don't quite get the hype. Perhaps I just didn't order the right dishes; maybe next time I'll try the burger and the steak.

Sometimes it's really good, and other times it's like they forgot to season anything. But also now, on our most recent visit, we noticed the portions seemed to have gotten smaller. The positives are that the interior is clean, spacious, and nicely decorated with high ceilings. If the weather is nice, you can sit outside, where there's even a putting green to enjoy while you wait for your food or after you're finished eating. The waitstaff has always been friendly and happy to offer recommendations. Over the years, we've tried quite a variety of their menu: pancakes, several burgers, the biscuit benedict, the Shegg sandwich, avocado toast, chicken and waffles, fried pickles, and more. So what's been inconsistent? How do you serve unseasoned ground beef? It's not pleasant. Have you ever had breakfast sausage with almost no seasoning? We have--and it was here. What about the portion sizes? Just compare my photos of the fried pickles from different visits, and they'll tell the story (the outside one was the most recent). Or if you've ordered a Bloody Mary recently, you might be wondering what happened to the mountain of slaw that used to come with it. The Shed isn't a cheap restaurant, so with the premium prices, I'd expect a lot more consistency when it comes to the food.
