    Cheeseburger
    Notoya S.

    Family, Single and/or casual date night friendly diner. All around Good, old everyone knows your name neighborhood diner. Food consisted of typical cafe/diner food from breakfast to dinner. We got a cheeseburger and fries, drinks and a breakfast plate. Service was friendly and attentive.

    Ordered food for delivery with an eta of 30 mins. I would say it arrived on time. The food was good. Only issue is I thought the Nutella French toast was stuffed with Nutella not glazed with it outside. Total was 48$ for Nutella French toast eggs bacon, pancakes with eggs and a bagel with cream cheese. A bit on the pricy side.

    If New York had greasy spoons, this would be the perfect restaurant to exemplify it. For a fair price, you get a generous amount of food, that will get you through that late night you had last night, or that early morning owie you so badly need to rid of. It also helps they are close by the Q train, so getting here should not be a problem. In other words, get your coffee or juice, eat your breakfast, and move along.

    George's is one of the survivors in a world, unfortunately becoming devoid of that classic diner. Not fancy, reasonably priced, and having great food and service, George's is reminiscent of the classic great-spoon diner. Warm, comfy, and a great neighborhood treasure, George's serves the classics and then some. I came in to grab a great breakfast and couldn't finish my meal for all the food given to me. In a world filled with over-priced brunch spots and bad service, George's is my go to for some good basic classic breakfast that will not break the bank - you'll feel like you're having Saturday breakfast at Grandma's or rather your uncle's place.

    Updated Review - 3 years later! I still love George's as much as I did 3 years ago. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. George is always around too. There are some days where all I want is to sit in George's and have some chocolate chip pancakes. Today when we sat for breakfast they handed us a much smaller menu than normal. Although you can no longer order chicken parm at 10am, they are focusing on what they do best in the AM and added so many menu items!! Dinner menu stayed the same but with new items added! Today's order: New Item: Breakfast Panini 2x sunny side up eggs Side of toast Short stack of chocolate chip pancakes Side of corn beef hash We'll be back!!

    Brooklyn!! Absolutely loved George's and the little area we stayed in close to our AirBnb. Small, quaint place with lots of atmosphere!! I got the silver dollar pancakes-- so good! Coffee hit the spot! Lots to choose from on this menu I am sure it's all delicious!

    Lox Benedict ($17.50) - comes with Home Fries

    Really great classic neighborhood diner, offering extremely fresh food + friendly service. Came by for brunch a couple of weekends ago with my boyfriend and we were told to sit anywhere we liked. We chose a table by the window and was welcomed by a warm, sweet server. After placing our order, she told us we made great choices and she was right! We both tried the Greek Iced Coffee / Frappe ($4.50) which is essentially the same as the quarantine-famous dalgona coffee. We asked for just almond milk in it, no sugar... but we should've asked for sugar. Note to self for next time. As for the food, I chose George's Breakfast Panini ($14.25) which was soo good especially after adding ketchup. The ingredients were just so fresh, and I was surprised that it wasn't overly greasy / buttered up, as you would usually expect from diners. It was light and even felt healthy. My boyfriend went with the Lox Benedict ($17.50) which was just as delicious! I had a few bites and again was in awe of the quality of ingredients. We will definitely be back - maybe for the lunch/dinner options. Their burgers, sandwiches, Greek specialties all look amazing. My only small gripe is that it's a biiit pricey but I suppose for the quality of the food it is worth it.

    Totally solid calamari
    Evan D.

    Solid diner fare with great service and great ambiance. Nothing much to look at from the outside but lots of character once you get inside. Went with my brother and his girlfriend a few days back and feasted on fried calamari, meatloaf. a burger and a Cobb salad. The salad and the calamari were both great and the burger and meatloaf just fine. A bit more expensive than I expected but not too bad. My brother now lives in the area so I'm sure he will be back

    Hungry Man Breakfast - pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage and ham (underneath the pancakes)

    We have spent A LOT of time at George's in the last year. Because that's what happens when you're pregnant and your cravings are over the place. And because George's is your quintessential diner and they have pretty much everything you need/want on their menu. Items like: + Alllllll the breakfast foods - pancakes here are especially delish. Big, fluffy, everything you want in a pancake. Their Hungry Man Special is something to look at too -- pancakes + eggs + all the meats. No, you don't have to pick bacon or sausage or ham - you get them all. + Burgers - George makes a pretty darn good burger. My fav option is to make my own -- selecting beef/turkey, cheese and whatever toppings you want. Burgers are pretty big and if you order the 'deluxe' then you'll get a generous helping of golden fries, a couple onion rings and all the burger toppings (tomato, onion, lettuce). + Sandwiches, paninis and wraps. My favorite favorite is The Griller. Chicken breasts, bacon, cheese on a squishy bun. Plus all the golden fries and a pickle. Sandwiches, specifically the paninis, are a really good size too. Last time I ordered a chicken cordon bleu panini I could only eat half... Other menu items range from apps - wings & nachos - to salads - to hearty meatloaf with gravy like entrées. I think there's one item I've had at George's that I didn't really enjoy -- the buffalo chicken wrap. Warning - they heat up the chicken and the wrap so the lettuce gets reallllllll soggy reallllllllll quick. Ugh. Some folks may enjoy but I did not. Other bits of info: + Staff at George's is the nicest. Whether we visit mid-day or order late the staff has been nothing but welcoming. + Prices are just right - $6 for pancakes, $10-15 for a sandwich/burger platter, etc etc. - Parking in the neighborhood can be tricky. I suggest trying on the other side of Coney (E 7th or 8th Streets). + Mid-day Geroge's can be pretty crowded...just an FYI. +/- George's isn't a 24-hour diner... they close at 11pm over the weekend. But that's not to say they won't make you a tasty burger if you call up at 10:45pm.

    They no longer have the breakfast special which used to include coffee and a small juice. Breakfast eggs come with a potato or grits and toast.

    5/27/2026 What could I say about this place that everyone…read moredoesn't know about..... absolutely nothing lol. Always recommend getting a reservation weather calling or walking to the booth. Our wait was at least an hour and a half and were texted when our table was ready. They have indoor and outdoor seating with one bathroom for all to use. We got the viral pancakes and they were everything you'd dream they be and then some for sure very filling and buttery. I got a "pick me up" and it was perfect gave me a beautiful caffeine kick to start the day I recommend for sure.

We got lucky as we were able to be seated in the first rounds of the tables that they had outside. We ordered the pancakes, wings and thai tea dessert. UNFORTUNATELY, for me, this place is OVERHYPED. Sure, the pancakes were soft and soaked with honey butter...but its really NOT THAT GOOD. I would never wait in line for this place. The wings were just meh...not really crispy, wasn't great as other korean wings I've had. The dessert was recommended and it was my least liked item ordered lol. All three items for a whooping $70.

The mix of a thousand island type sauce with ketchup made this burger a 10/10. The sesame bun gives the burger a great softness with all the other textures. + the fries gave me the feeling of an elevated mcdonald's fry! caesar salad was perfect. Lots of lettuce, not overly anchovy and just the croutons were soft and crisp at the same time? very much enjoyed how big of a portions all of these items were. chicken parm sauce was tangy and had good flavoring with the perfect melted cheese on top of the soft but crisp edges of the chicken. i'd highly recc all three items we got! service was quick once we got seated and was nice to be outside in the warm weather.

While they have all the traditional breakfast fare, I was so happy to see it also had a Caribbean twist to it. I couldn't help myself--I had to order rice and beans with pernil (pork shoulder) and a side of sweet plantains. Of course, I wanted some actual breakfast items, so we got the French toast loaded with fruit. We also got both the tres and quatro golpes, which is a traditional Dominican breakfast. Lastly, we got a Caribbean omelet. My rice and pernil was solid. The rice could've used a tad bit more seasoning but when mixed with the side of beans and plantains plus a drizzle of hot sauce it was perfect. They had a variety of sauces--Tabasco (my fave), a Jamaican one that was super spicy, and a mild homemade one. The tres/quatro golpes was also a hearty choice with mangu (mashed plantain), sausage, fried cheese, and eggs. The pickled red onion balanced everything out. The fried cheese is similar to a halloumi but I think it's a bit more flavorful. All the flavors just melt together in your mouth perfectly. The French toast and omelet were good. I'd say the Caribbean items stole the show though. The place has a typical diner vibe and is on the small side. Food was served quickly and service was good. Discount if you pay in cash. I will be coming back to try their Cuban!!

The vibe is that of a Mexican American diner, and the clientele are all clearly Brooklyn heights locals - some of which have clearly been coming here for decades. It is clearly a IYKYK spot. The menu is huge - pretty much anything you can want from a diner is on it, including a full bar. Also, the service is incredibly helpful and friendly. Even if you don't see something on the menu you can likely order it (within reason). On our first visit, we ordered the carbonara and we were hooked. How can this little spot we skipped over so many times give us such great food? Have we been missing out this whole time? From this first visit, we've ended up coming in many times during all times of day whether that was a late night dinner or hungover breakfast, Grand Canyon just hits the spot. It is not your fanciest meal, but it is comfort personified. While the carbonara is what made me fall in love with Grand Canyon (perfectly creamy and non-skimping on the crunchy bits of bacon), I've also yet to find a pulled pork sandwich as good as the one Grand Canyon puts together. I haven't left disappointed and hope this gem stays in the neighborhood forever. Long live Grand Canyon

Apparently there is more than one location in Manhattan. The inside reminded me of a classic diner. Comfy and with a pretty cool vibe. We all slid into a booth and looked over the seasonal offerings along with their standard menu. I was lured by the chicken Kyiv based on the picture of having two rolled up chicken cutlets stuffed with dill and other yumminess, but was a bit disappointment when it arrived with a single small cutlet on my plate with two heaping mounds of potatoes mash and broccoli. I instantly had regret when I should have gotten the borscht soup with pierogies, but wanted to try something I wouldn't usually. I should've stuck to what was safe. My work mom got the stuffed cabbage and that was a clear homerun- really loved the mushroom gravy that it came with. My other colleague got the potato pancake and wasn't too thrilled with it, while my boss got the two Swedish meatballs that he described to be Ikea worthy. Although this was my first time here, I can't say that anyone really loved the food nor would come out of their way to come back. I really was hoping this would have wow-ed me in some way, but I guess I'll stick to what's familiar.
