    As a person traveling here from Az I absolutely appreciate and enjoy eateries like this. I ordered a fresh beet and greens juice and branded a premade sushi roll package. The whole place looked delicious and each item was around $10. Everything was fast and efficient and perfect because I was in the middle of a long day of authorship and book release and had a small break. Thank you!

    California Wrap

    I love their sandwiches!! The wraps are made to order and taste delicious and affordable, especially for the area. This is a great go to place for lunch if you work in the area or just a tourist looking for a no-frills lunch

    Came by for lunch the other day and it was an ok experience. Cook eatery is located on 45th between 7th and 8th. The store has numerous "sections" including a hot buffet featuring meats, vegetables, and carbs. There is also a cold buffet featuring salads and fruit, all for $15.99/lb The line to pay was also quick, although there appears to be a slight surcharge for paying by credit card.

    Stopped in for a quick drink on the walk back to my hotel and was not expecting to walk into a quick stop buffet. While I didn't grab any food, I was amazed at all the options available.

    Emergency exit concern

    The bagel itself was good, which is the main reason for the two stars. Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing. The person speaking Spanish (who claimed to be the owner) was intrusive and obnoxious. No one asked for commentary, and it was uncomfortable to have someone repeatedly interrupt conversations. If you're not being spoken to, it's best to give customers space. Our order was also incorrect: we asked for no onions and received extra onions, and we asked for no egg but still got egg. Attention to basic order details needs serious improvement. On top of that, the emergency exit was blocked with chairs, which is a safety concern (see image). The food has potential, but customer service, order accuracy, and safety standards need much more focus.

    Stopped to grab a quick Sandwich and absolutely loved the Sub that I go. It was loaded with meat, and the price was pretty decent. Bought some Pastries as well, and they were yummy too.

    Great spot for smoothies and other goodies. They even made me a custom smoothie not on the menu. Also picked up some protein bars, they had a great selection.

    Almond raisin pastry and smoothie
    Marie S.

    A wide selection of food from pastries, muffins, coffee bar, a hot and cold breakfast buffet ($13.95/pound), cheesecake, juices, wine, and made to order sandwiches. I got pancakes and sausage one day with a juice for $6 and an almond raisin pastry one day. Prices were good and location was quick and convenient. Service was okay. 2023 #95

    Visited Cook Eatery the other day through an external app and I have to say that every time I go to Cook Eatery, I am please with the portions and food they offer. I got a Caesar salad, flavored chicken, dumplings, and garlic noodles with a side of radish soup. I was in awe of how great everything tasted and the staff were very nice as well. The worker said I could take some utensils home and processed my order at the cashier relatively quickly. Just knowing that an employee is present to greet me with a smile is something I always love seeing. Ambiance was nice with great lighting and it's located in Times Square, so it is very convenient for office workers and those traveling. Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5

    The New York Sandwich
    Natasha M.

    This is the kinda place to go to if you don't know what you want when you walk in that you could potentially walk out with a little bit of everything. I started off wanting the bimibap and ended up with a very hearty chicken sandwich. I just love the concept that you can get a deli sandwich, choose from a buffet, or even get sushi or a ramen bowl. Just do much to choose from including a refrigerator case of beverages and I loved it. Bravo! Also quick service and I got a great view on the second floor while eating my sandwich.

    Omelet platters. Comes with two pieces of buttered toast.
    Dana O.

    This place was close to our hotel so we stopped by after check out for a quick bite before the airport. It was alright. It's a big eatery with different stations. The chefs were friendly and food was prepared there in front of us. They have udon, sandwiches, omelets, etc and a whole floor or seating upstairs. We tried omelets and it was something we would probably make at home. Nothing was seasoned and the eggs have some meat/veggies based on what you order and a side of toast. The potato fries were bland and could have been fried and seasoned more. The hash brown was mushy from not being toasted enough and placed on top of a hot omelet in a to go box. They also have a buffet in the back and a lot of snacks/beverages. This place would be good if you're staying nearby and need a quick snack or want an inexpensive meal.

    Tuna Melt Panini
    Katherine D.

    I normally order lunch from here if I'm ever in the area as they have a really good menu selection. This time I went and got a Tune Melt Panini as they make it really well here. When ordering a panini it comes with a small side of curly fries which are delicious and a pickle slice. This place is big with seating on the second floor. There are multiple food options from ramen, korean food, wraps, salad and pananis and sandwiches as well as a food bar option. They also do smoothies and pressed juices. If you are ever near by and need a quick reasonably proced lunch this is the place to go. They will assist you as quickly as possible. 4.5/5

I'm so glad Broad Nosh Bagels & Deli popped up in my search, as it was exactly what I was looking to enjoy. A couple of us trekked the few blocks to find the storefront. Inside it was PACKED, and several groups and lines snaked around the dividers. But the line moved quickly between customers picking up to-go meals and placing orders at the counters. The display cases are beautiful and feature so many different kinds of cream cheese. (Who knew you could make a whole vat of Biscoff?) They also had many types of smoked fish and toppings for customers filing through. Once you order food, you take your ticket to the register where you can add any drinks. This also went fairly quickly. Food and drink order numbers were called out and checked with the receipts, although they called out a set of orders for several minutes and no one came to pick them up. There are a few tables there, but since customers wait to grab drinks and food near the front, the couple tables at the front were basically for crowd control. I definitely wouldn't try to eat there unless I happened to be going at a quieter time. I got the bagel with smoked salmon, and it was exactly what I had been craving. Their bagels are a quarter pound each, so you might even get two meals out of it if you have a fridge for storage. But even as good as the bagel was, the hot chai latte with oat milk was the star for me. It was so incredibly layered for flavor and fragrant, just lightly sweet. I would go out of my way on a trip to NYC just to get one of these for breakfast! We all really enjoyed our food, and I will definitely return.

We ducked here to grab some nourishment before I became to hangry. Ordering takes place at the counter then grab a table. I had a 1/2 bowl of their "famous chicken soup" and 1/2 pastrami sandwich. Had good flavor and was enough to warm me up on this brisk morning. My niece did a bagel, and after trying all week she finally got one exactly how she wanted it made. We ate and chilled for a bit, no plans for the day other than making it to the airport to go home. Was able to people watch and catch up without feeling rushed to leave. Saw locals come through, so you know it is a place worth stopping. The staff were nice and even apologized for not being able to give me the soup I wanted in a half order. Though things can often get overlooked and passed by in the hustle and bustle of the city...stop in and relax while you grab a bite to eat.

    Date of visit: April 14, 2026…read more Our friend wanted to go to a real New York deli during her first trip to the city and this is the one in the vicinity of Times Square and our evening show that was the highest rated according to my fellow Yelpers, but I am not quite sure why based on our experience. Things did start out great, with Boudjema being very friendly and helpful as we placed our order. And once we got seated, we were able to fully appreciate the vibe, both in the primarily 70s playlist, but also the mirror and brass touches across the restaurant. Food-wise, however, there were some definite opportunities. My Roasted Turkey sandwich did come on quite possibly the best rye bread I have ever had, warm and flavorful. But while the gravy was also good, the turkey was cold. This odd temperature mismatch made it hard to appreciate the generous portion of meat on the sandwich. We also ordered some tater tots and those were quite good. While it definitely could have been worse--and I've had worse in New York City--this also could have been so much better.
