Buttermilk Pancakes 2 Eggs Any Style
Milan B.

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.

Brioche French Toast with Orange juice, bacon, sausage, and eggs.

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.

A breakfast plate includes three slices of French toast with a golden-brown surface, topped with melted butter. Accompanying the toast are scrambled eggs, crispy bacon strips, and a sausage link. The plate is set on a table with a spoon, knife, and cups visible in the background, suggesting a sit-down dining setting.

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.

Nutella Stuffed French Toast & Corned Beef Hash

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!!

a view of a restaurant kitchen - The image shows the interior of a restaurant or diner with a kitchen area visible in the background. A green street sign reading 'George's Way' is mounted on the wall above the kitchen. The kitchen has shelves with plates, bowls, and stacks of paper or menus. The foreground features a counter with condiments, a hand sanitizer, and menus. The ceiling has several hanging lights and a clock. The setting appears casual and functional.

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 - Fried calamari pieces are arranged on a white oval plate, with a small bowl of marinara sauce. A spoon rests on the plate's edge. In the background, a glass of water with a lemon wedge and a person's hand holding a lemon wedge are visible. The setting appears to be a restaurant or diner table.

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)
Alyssa R.

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.

Eggs, sausage and grits - A breakfast meal features two fried eggs with runny yolks, three cooked sausage links, a serving of creamy grits, and several slices of toasted bread. The meal is served on a white plate placed on a dark wooden table, with a cup and saucers in the background, along with butter packets on a small plate.
Laura C.

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.

Pastrami omelette - A breakfast plate with an omelette containing bacon pieces, served on a white dish. In the background, there is a plate of toasted bread, a small metal syrup container, and a person wearing a dark jacket sitting at an outdoor table. The setting appears to be a casual diner with outdoor seating.

Definitely worth another trip. I got the Cajun club (w/o tomatoes) sandwich and the frozen margarita. Both were soooo good! The place might be small but it's big on the "home away from home"/chill atmosphere!

I chose this place because I had visited a few times in the past and expected a positive environment. While there, I ran into an old friend who was accompanying individuals with special needs. They informed us about the R&B karaoke event, and we attempted to participate respectfully and supportively. Unfortunately, after participating, the DJ became rude and dismissive. My friends decided not to continue because each time they attempted to request a song, the DJ was unkind and impatient, seemingly unaware--or unconcerned--that they were individuals with special needs. The situation escalated when I attempted to calmly address the disrespect. Instead of listening, the bartender repeatedly accused me of being drunk simply because I was defending myself after a rude comment. I was not intoxicated; I was advocating for respectful treatment. Even the DJ's own companion appeared visibly shocked by the comment made toward me, as if anticipating a reaction. I remained composed and professional despite being deeply upset. What disappointed me most was the staff's decision to defend the DJ's behavior rather than acknowledge how inappropriate and disrespectful the interaction was. This reflects poorly on how this establishment treats people--especially those who deserve patience, understanding, and dignity. I came expecting an enjoyable brunch experience and left feeling ashamed for having trusted this place. It is clear that the venue prioritizes protecting mediocre DJs with minimal local popularity over treating customers with basic respect. Poor organization, lack of proper event management, and unprofessional staff behavior made this experience unacceptable. I have visited many establishments and have never felt so disrespected. I will not be returning.

TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

The sandwich was very well made with a nice crisp panko crusting that didnt feel heavy on the oil, and yet still managed to have a light airy egg inside. The eggs rothko was buttery and flavorful but still managed to not feel too heavy. The broiled tomatos on the side were a nice touch to contrast the egg and toast from the main dish.
