    Mangu breakfast for just $13.95!
    Nery A.

    I has just dropped off my daughter at school and needed to be back in an hour and a half for a school trip so I decided to explore Sunset Park for an open cafe. Since I had run out of my home without having breakfast, my stomach was rumbling. A simple coffee with concha wasn't going to be enough for my appetite. My stomach and brain collaborated at that moment and I remembered my parents describing a delicious breakfast that consisted of mashed plantains with fried cheese, eggs, and fried salami topped with pickled red onion. All I could remember is that the restaurant started with a G. By some miracle of the universe, I turned around and there it was...George's restaurant with a big sign saying that they serve Dominican breakfast. And let me tell you the best part...all of that deliciousness is only $13.95. As soon as I entered the restaurant, I saw another sign that showed that they serve a milkshake called morir sonando. I knew then that I had hit the the breakfast jackpot because I hadn't had one in a long time and I have craved it since then. Like a friend once said to me, it tastes just like a creamsicle so it's basically dessert for breakfast. The waitress was very friendly and quick to bring my order. The restaurant is in a dining setting so it is family-oriented. If you are craving a Dominican breakfast, then this is the best spot for it in Sunset Park.

    Consistently tasty. Both times we went we were very happy we did. We ate so many things in two meals, both lunch and breakfast and it was wonderful. Don't let the line discourage you. They move table and make good use of mobile dividers to keep the line moving. Enjoy a pastry and an espresso while you wait. The chocolate croissant (not pictured) was in line with everything else - DELICIOUS!

    Was wondering what to have for lunch and stumbled upon this diner. What an easy choice! I'm always a fan of diners. We were seated right away. Pretty spacious restaurant especially there are more seatings in the back area. I had my usual western omelette. Glad I was able to have salad instead of fries. Order came with toast which was standard. Service was quick and staff was friendly. Nice place to just chill. Menu was expansive. Would love to come back next time I'm in the neighborhood.

    Terrible food and service. Drinks were sugared and water down...

The servers come directly to your table and they write down the menu for the day. The menu generally run American classics, but a bit more "chefy" than a run of the mill diner. Unfortunately, I think I came on an off day, as there were some miscues. The clam dish had a ton of potential, but was noticeably overseasoned, and I'm a self-proclaimed salt lover. It was mentioned that the pork chop was going to be medium to medium-rare, but what we received was in the edge of well done (and even burned on some ends). The burger and fries, though, were fantastic. A bit hit or miss, but I do want to come back as the menu is creative and I'm sure it would have been great on a better day.

The interior was cozy and old-school with beautiful stained glass pendant lamps. They didn't have specialty coffee drinks, so I just got a Cold Brew with oat milk. The three of us ordered a bunch of food to share - the Honey Butter Pancakes, Sam's Tuna Melt, Matzoh Ball Soup, and a side of Crispy Chicken. The famous pancakes really were delicious! I loved the lemon zest and fluffy texture. But the Tuna Melt honestly stole the show for me! It was easily the best Tuna Melt of my life, and normally I never crave them. This one was just so well-crafted and I loved the crunchy salt & vinegar chips inside. The Matzoh Ball Soup was also solid and the Crispy Chicken was juicy and well-seasoned. We definitely over-ordered when it came down to quantity, but the meal was fantastic!

Got…read morethere around 8:50am and there was a huge line at the door with no proper delineation or signage of how someone with a reservation should approach the staff or form a line or anything. Was very confusing and didn't make sense to stand in the huge line if you have a reservation. I walked in (the door was open and a few employees were standing around). I approached someone holding an iPad who looked like the host and asked what I was supposed to do. They said to stand in the long line. I mentioned I had a reservation, but they insisted I should stand in the long line. I was worried standing in the line was going to be a mistake because once the clock strikes 9am and they start letting people in we'd be all the way at the back of the line and get missed or not hear any announcements about people with reservations (it's very loud in the area, especially due to a train passing by every few minutes). So I make my wife stand in the line just in case and I stand near the front in case they make an announcement for people with reservations. Guess what, the clock strikes 9am and they make no announcement or anything. They just start taking people waiting in line (who don't have a reservation) with no regard for people who made a reservation. I had to interrupt the host at the podium for them to even notice me standing nearby and mention I had a reservation. The host then kind of had some attitude, but we were seated. I was so surprised that after being open for so long now and being so hype they don't know how to properly manage their reservations. Or maybe they just don't care?? Well if I listened to the employee that told me to wait in the line, I would have totally missed the boat and been disappointed. They would have just let in all the people waiting in line and the restaurant would have been full by the time I got to the front. I'm glad I had a backup plan in this case, but I was so disappointed in their way of handling the situation. Basically if you have a reservation, especially at 9am when they open, DON'T wait in the long line and miss your reservation. Wait by the podium and interrupt them when they start taking people from the line and mention you have a reservation. Unfortunately they didn't do a good job of having a proper process for reservations :( Super sad especially because of all the hoops you have to jump through to even get lucky enough to make a reservation via RESY. Once we sat down, the waitstaff there was not very friendly or welcoming either. The guy that took our order was the one that have me the wrong information to stand in line. He even had attitude while taking our order and we felt rushed. As for the food, of course we wanted to try the famous pancakes. I will say, for the novelty they are worth trying, especially if you like the honey flavor. I personally like the maple syrup flavor more. The texture of the pancake is super unique, it's dense and fluffy, but the edges have a nice crisp. Was happy that they served it hot and fresh. But they are inconsistent on how much syrup they put on the pancake. Mine was swimming in syrup and my wife's had a moderate amount. I would have preferred less syrup as it was way too much the way they served it to me. Overall, not my favorite pancake ever, but I understand why people may enjoy it. 3/5 stars. The egg sandwich we got was pretty pathetic though. The flavors were super basic and it just felt clumpy and heavy. 2/5 stars. We also got brewed coffee and asked for half and half, but were given milk instead. Coffee ultimately didn't taste good at all. What diner doesn't have half and half for their coffee?? 1/5 stars. Overall, I'd say there are better places for breakfast in NYC with better service. Come here to try the pancake if you must, but beware they don't really care about you as a customer.

But if you're looking for some excellent, straight forward, wonderfully crafted simplicity, this is in your wheelhouse. A quesadilla is a quesadilla, a hamburger a hamburger. Sounds boring? Not when your hamburger and quesadilla are amongst the best you've ever had at any diner, anywhere. Our waitress was very nice and allowed us to dine, unbothered.

This spot has a handful of tables and while we were there, quite a few to-go orders were picked up as well. Though we were the only diners, so I assume it's more of a breakfast/brunch spot. The menu is rather expansive with options from breakfast to lunch and dinner. After studying the menu, we opted for the Veggie Burger and the Meatball Parm Po'Boy. Our food was ready in about 20 minutes, which seemed a little long as we were the only diners, but we were not in a rush so it was fine. As the restaurant was unassuming, I honestly had pretty low expectations, but we both really enjoyed our meals. It was definitely large portions and really flavorful. My fiance said the Meatball Parm Po'Boy was delicious and I appreciated that the veggie burger seemed to be made in house as it was falling apart (in a good way) and you could distinguish some of the veggies. I ended up only eating about half of my burger and took the rest for lunch the next day and it held up well.

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!!

Crisp, sweet, tart, crunchy, it was a perfect little treat for myself. Most definitely would order again. The BEC pierogies were tasty, but I felt like I should've at least gotten seven or eight for $16. That's 2.50 a dumpling for 6. I wish I had more for the price point or at least that they were more filled with stuffing, like it's eggs. I'm not disappointed just I was still slightly hungry when I left, which is not what I wanna feel after paying $38 for breakfast with tip. Not unreasonably priced just you don't feel like you're getting a good bargain is all. They are handmade. I'll give them that. The service was lovely. I may be back to try some other things, I would love to try the latkes. It was a cute environment for sure, Ukrainian diner vibes.
