I have been trying to get to the Daily Diner and finally made it after an airport drop off. It was…read morenot busy, but there was a wait for tables- 25 minutes. I didn't know if they were short staffed? But I'm sure they were limiting seating times, so the wait staff and/ or kitchen didn't get jammed up. I was alone so I was happy to get a counter seat right away. I decided on the "Double" breakfast...2 Eggs, Meat, Home Fries and a Pancake. Excellent choice for me...eggs over easy...ham....and crispy home fries. Everything was perfect and the "ham" was amazing. My perfect breakfast is savory but includes a few little bites of something sweet and thi cames with a fluffy pancake with a buttery syrup. Service was excellent from my waitress to the host.

Typical menu with a rotating pancake of the month (similar to the Burger of the Month at the ownership groups other venture, Bull and Bear). They also have a bar as is the case in most new breakfast/brunch spots. I had a fretta and my partner a simple two eggs and bacon meal. My fretta was fine, nothing special. Expensive at 17.00 for a relatively small plate compared to local competition. My partner enjoyed theirs- said the bacon was not good though. Food came out super fast. Less than 10 minutes which was surprising to say the least. ~40 breakfast for two is expensive- especially when the food wasn't anything special.

We recently decided to give Sammy's NYC Deli a try, and unfortunately, it was a decision we quickly…read moreregretted. When my partner and I walked in, we were greeted by a man at the counter and mentioned it was our first time visiting. His response was about as uninterested as it gets. Instead of offering a menu or any guidance, he simply pointed off to the side and told us to order when we were ready. Not exactly a welcoming first impression. The space itself was small, with a few tables, drink coolers, baked goods, and smoothie options. After placing our order, we waited...and waited. After exactly 40 minutes, I finally asked about the status, especially after watching another couple come in after us, order, and leave with their food before we received ours. I understand that takeout and delivery orders are part of the business, but in-house customers should not be completely overlooked. There was no communication, no sense of urgency, and no effort to acknowledge the delay. It genuinely felt like we didn't matter as customers. And for what? Two sandwiches--a roast beef and a turkey. Having worked in restaurants myself, I can confidently say that should not take 40 minutes under normal circumstances. I don't enjoy writing negative reviews, but this experience was frustrating enough to warrant one. We will not be returning. Save yourself the time and look elsewhere.

It's such a cute little spot and a perfect breakfast or brunch option. And don't skip the sweet, they're equally amazing! I visited a few times during my trip and was so happy to keep coming back. Having an entirely vegan spot this good makes it a total no-brainer. Definitely worth a visit, whether you're vegan or not!

Stopped at 12:15 on a Sunday, a little late and thus, some menu items were sold out. However, what…read morethey still had was very good. I had the Buck and my partner a sausage egg and cheese of which I forget the name. Both were very large and tasty. I'd like to try another sandwich next time I'm there as the spicy strawberry jam on the Buck was not to my personal preference. My partner enjoyed theirs thoroughly. We also ordered a s'mores cookie for later alongside a cold brew and OJ. 39 and change for two large sandwiches, two drinks, and a specialty cookie seems steep but for the quality I'd say it's worth it as a treat. The staff member at the window was incredibly friendly which was great- makes you feel like you're supporting good people by buying local. I'll go again and I think if it's not too far you should try it, too.

I do see a lot of negative…read morereviews are from long wait times but I went on a Tuesday morning so that could be why my review is rated much higher because I had no wait time to be seated and the food came out pretty quickly. Rise N Shine has such cute decor! I love the entrance and the overall aesthetic. The restaurant uses a QR code menu just FYI. There's also a parking lot which seemed like it would get full quickly if on a busier day. Our waitress was Karen (?) and she was very sweet. We ordered the Hot Honey Chicken and waffles (without gravy cause they ran out) and the Basic "B" with an extra side of hash brows. The chicken and waffles was pretty tasty! The waffles were light and airy and the chicken was moist with a nice crunch. I'm not sure how the gravy would've affected the texture but it was definitely delicious without it. The Basic B was standard, the bacon was apple smoked and thick. The pancakes were yummy, they came with a cinnamon butter which was perfect for the pancakes. And the hash browns were nice and crispy. Overall I really enjoyed trying this place out as it has been on my list! I will definitely come back again!

For pastries, I decided on a ham and cheese croissant and apple cheese danish and it was the most incredible dessert i've ever tried wow! I've never tried something like this before and now I will never stop thinking about it. The ham and cheese was ok compared to everything else, just very messy and flakey with the croissant. My friend got the almost croissant and said it was "amazing". I will definitely be back here many more times to try absolutely everything they have to offer! Everything came out super quick and the staff is friendly so that's always a bonus!

Very large space and tables are well spaced out to give everyone some privacy. I wanted to specifically make it for the lunch because I wanted to try the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes which came with greens and a side of protein. I choose potatoes. I also ordered a peach Bellini drink. Delicious!!! Definitely hit the spot. The food portions are big so I couldn't finish all my food but if I had space in my stomach I would have licked the plate clean. The staff is friendly. Someone who I assume is the owner was walking around greeting guests. My server was great really payed attention to his guests.

Walking through the restaurant was nice as the space was very large and the decor indoor was cozy and whimsical. Our server was nice throughout the meal. However, I did get a water glass that had marks on it that looked like someone just drank out of it and a crumb on the rim. I asked them if they could get me a clean cup and they ended up bringing the same one as the same mark and crumb were still there. For food, our table ordered a few items to share. We got: -CAULIFLOWER WINGS: The chutney/salsa on top of the fried cauliflower was nice and gave the item a little sour kick. However, the cauliflower itself was not cooked fully so not as soft as I wanted it to be. -SYRACUSE POUTINE: The appearance of the poutine was not the best. However, the gravy it came with was very flavorful and tasty. The potatoes themselves were not fried and were in wedge form but went well with the gravy. The small globs of melted cheese on top were a nice complement. -CAJUN SLIDERS: The slider compliments/sauce went well together but the sliders themselves had grill marks on it which gave a bitter bite to those parts of the slider. Additionally, the fried shrimp inside of the slider still had the tail on and so it was a bit of a surprise to bite into a full tail while eating a slider. All in all, a cute spot to see people but food had some hit or miss components.

The most important review is from my mom who got a hot spiced brown sugar latte: she never gets any flavors because she thinks they're too much but she LOVED this latte. They have a ton or pastry choices as well and a soup of the day! Definitely a great place to hangout and drink strong coffee.
