Classic Denver Omelette
Vivienne C.

Local UWS Diner where a lot of locals go to. This place is always packed every time I come but I appreciate that somehow there's always seating available. Remember to pay in the front before you leave. I ordered the Classic Denver Omelette and it was what you expect - egg, ham, bell peppers, and onions. I wish they had put a little more flavor in it, although tabasco does help, but it's essentially just all these raw ingredients in one. I do always appreciate the portion sizes as not only do you get the omelette but also you get this huge smashed/tater tot looking potato side as well as bread. However, I would appreciate if the quantities were a little less but they elevated the flavors. But then again, it's breakfast food so what can you expect. Overall, not a bad place for a diner if that's what you are craving. Not sure if this is where you will get all the flavors you ever wanted in the world, but what you read on the menu is what you get.

Been a while since I was here and pleased to say that it's still a solid diner choice on the UWS. Met a friend here to chat over coffee and some snacks. Bonus kudos for actually cooking my fries as crispy like I requested. Too many spots don't listen and still serve them undercooked which is nasty to me! Fries need to be prepared crispy!

Pancakes ans bacon

3.5 stars. Both food and service were as expected! I actually wasn't expecting much. It was basic diner food, but I was pleasantly surprised because I did enjoy most of the food. I got the Grilled Chicken Omelette and tried some of their pancakes. The Grilled Chicken Omelette was good. The chicken chunks were seasoned just right, and the omelette wasn't too salty or bland. The hash browns though were very bland and pretty undercooked. Their pancakes were good -- they were fluffy and perfectly cooked. They had just the right amount of subtle sweetness and eggy taste. They weren't too dry. The jams and pancake syrup comes in its own individually-packaged containers, which I don't prefer because it's wasteful, but it's probably standard across diners. The Viand a couple of blocks away seems to make their own homemade jams and doesn't use individually-packaged syrup containers. We pay the check at the cashier, so checking out might take a while if there is a long line and might feel rushed. Overall, not bad. Would return if I wanted diner food again! Would probably still choose to go to the Viand over here, but this isn't a bad option!

Stopped here for breakfast with my family. Nice quite dinner with fast kind customer service. Fairly priced and the food is good as well. Fast easy bite on the go especially if you are in a rush.

We've been here about five times and love it. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Always great service, great food. The veggie omelette is very good. Eggs Benedict. The pasta with vodka sauce is great. And the posters an tiles on the wall really say Manhattan. Between 94th and 95th on Broadway. A nice walk from the Metropolitan Museum.

Let me cut to the chase: I believe I have had the finest tuna melt I have ever had. Served on the original version of an English muffin, the tuna salad itself was excellent, and the temperature of the tomato was absolutely perfect. The fries were sublime, and the coleslaw was exactly how it should've been, crisp without too much mayo or sauce. The iced coffee was strong and good, and they kept it coming at the table. I went there the next day for breakfast and was equally impressed with my omelette (the Athenian, for those of you who care about such things). The hot coffee was as good as the iced coffee and they kept my cup full (yes, I know, I said the same thing about the iced coffee, but in the morning this is especially important). Service is good, and the ambience stands on its own as a combination of traditional New York coffee shop/diner with a back room that reminded me of the Four Seasons (no, seriously, there's just something funky and modern about this area of the restaurant). This is my new favorite upper Westside dining locale (perhaps I don't have the most sophisticated palate). The only downside is, it's a bit pricey. Worth it? Yes. I'm going back again for breakfast tomorrow.

Omelet with homefries

This is a better-than-your-average local diner. The food is good but the service, efficiency, and CLEANLINESS really make this place. It's one of those places where you know they take pride in their establishment.

Three Cheese Mac.. OMG, This sh!!! is sooo good!

The service from the waiter is horrible and I believe it's because of my race. I've seen him treat other races differently than how I was treated. I would greet him always with a sir and hello and thank you. His first response would always be "what you want". I've been coming here for over 15 years and he's a new waiter. He's a short Hispanic man with a resting Bitch face. I've even given him decent tips every time I came in with my family. The last and final time I came in to dine, I told him about himself and he apologized but, it's too late. The cashiers are always very nice and the managers as well but, that waiter has a huge problem with my kind and or me. Don't judge a book by its cover. If my family insist that we go back despite, I will ask to be served by someone other than him going forward.

Lumberjack

Typical Diner and food. Usually busy, although this past Sunday not too bad around late breakfast time (10am-ish). We always get a table. My son asked to go specifically for the Lumber Jack breakfast combo: 2 eggs, pancakes, bacon, sausage and a slice of ham. We had Lumberjacks all around - and for my order, they substituted the pancakes for a waffle even though the pancakes were fluffy and delicious, I had a bite.

I ordered a side of french fries and got them to go. I thought it would take a lot longer than it did. There was a speedy pickup process which made me happy, and they weren't soggy or too crispy and there was a decent amount of them in the container. They were perfect and gave me so many ketchup packets. I was really happy with my order.

Wednesday girl dinner is a must try. For $25, you get a martini, salad (Cesar or market), and fries…read more(truffle or regular). I got the market salad with grilled chicken which was very filling and packed with flavor. The grilled chicken was an add on so cost a little bit more than $25 but still an amazing deal. 10/10 recommend!

Think vintage wallpaper, little knick-knacks, and warm lighting. It's got character. I ordered the market salad with mixed greens, honeycrisp apples, goat cheese, candied pecans, and sherry vinaigrette. It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

Sarge’s Delicatessen & Diner - Corned beef and pastrami

After a weekend of rich, indulgent meals, we were looking for something a little more…read morestraightforward and comforting. We also wanted to try a classic pastrami on rye--but without committing to the long lines at Katz's Delicatessen. Sarge's ended up being the perfect alternative, just a quick five-minute walk from our hotel. We arrived around 5:00 pm on a Sunday and were seated right away, which already felt like a win. The meal started with coleslaw and both a half sour and full sour pickle--such a classic deli touch, and a great way to kick things off. I ordered the half sandwich with matzah ball soup, and the portion sizes were no joke. The soup alone could have been a full meal: a huge bowl with an equally massive matzah ball. The broth was warm and soothing, and the matzah ball was incredibly light with a perfect texture. The half pastrami on rye was just as impressive. Even "half" was stacked high with flavorful, tender pastrami. Adding a bit of mustard from the table brought everything together--it was simple, classic, and exactly what I was hoping for. Not only was it one of the more reasonably priced meals of the trip, but it was also genuinely satisfying. If you're looking for a no-fuss, traditional deli experience without the wait, Sarge's is a great option.

Service was so bad she deserved no tip whatsoever. On top of that, the food was overpriced and nowhere near worth the attitude. If you want REAL deli quality, good portions, and professional service, save yourself the frustration and go to Katz's instead. Night and day difference in both food and customer service.
