Stopped here for late breakfast with my boyfriend today. The staff was not that friendly. There was no warm welcome or even a smile from any of the waiters. We were seated quickly and then taken our order as soon as we were ready. The food was pretty good. I had the Nutella s'mores waffle with eggs and ham and my boyfriend has the banana chocolate chip pancakes with eggs and sausage. The waffle was a little dry but tasty and was bigger than I thought it would be. My boyfriend enjoyed his pancakes as well. Overall it was a good meal and I would come come back. read more

Ordered delivery. Missing two items. No napkins or utensils. Food was pretty lousy. Called they told me too bad. Skip this place.

Eh.....just not very good. Went here for lunch with family about a year ago and I know that it's a diner but the blandness or the food was just on another level. Came back for breakfast a week ago and same thing. Meanwhile the menu just isn't always accurate. Herb roasted potatoes as a side in the morning was literally hash browns. Also pretty overpriced and the menu isn't as extensive as other diners. When there are so many diner options in the area, I'd have to be pretty hard pressed to eat here. read more

This place is awful. I forced my wife to try it since we live nearby and I probably won't hear the end of it now since it was my idea. Hospitality was lacking to say the least. I bit into the bacon and it was barely room temp. The eggs and the potatoes were both barely warm which made me question if this place even had gas.The breakfast potatoes were just shredded potatoes and were the most bland potatoes I ever tasted. I would only go back to this place if it was to bring them some seasoning and a thermometer to get their food up to temp. read more

Moonstruck Eatery - American Near Me - New York, New York

Food was great and service was fast. I know this review seems simple but it's that simple great food and service and the restaurant appeared very clean. When it comes to the food I had not one issue and neither did my friend I have attached pictures to this review. I follow the restaurant on Instagram and finally decided to head there they do not disappoint. I will point out that there were only three other tables being served at the time so I don't know if that adds to the fast service. I order the three cheese pasta with shells and shrimp and my friend order the turkey burger with avocado, tomatoes, lettuce etc read more

definitely did the job at 2am New Years morning. I had the California omelet, which was satisfying. Service was fast. I liked the large windows. The prices were nothing to write home about. Still, it will still ring in my memories read more

Came here to just to eat some late breakfast we were able to sit right away and we were served fast the food came out in a decent time. I ordered the pancakes and they were good I would definitely recommend!! read more

I ate lunch there today and was very pleased. I had one of their "pasta favorites" - the shrimp and pesto ravioli - which came with a cup of soup (I chose the creamy spinach). The soup was very tasty and the pasta dish was *delicious*! Really, their pesto was excellent and they didn't stint on the ravioli or shrimp. I notice it's listed at $12.50 on their online and takeout menus, but it was only $10.95 on the regular menu (perhaps that's the lunch price). Everyone who worked there was friendly, the place was *spotless* (including the restroom), and I had a window table (very nice for a sunny, bitterly cold day). The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because the server never checked back with me during my meal (I would have liked more water, but I didn't bother waylaying him) and because I had to ask a second time for the check. Still, though, he was pleasant. read more

Service isn't the best. I just wanted to order take-out, but found myself ignored for a decent while. Then when they took my order, they just gave me the receipt and left without saying anything. I ended up ordering a grilled vegetable salad to-go, which smelled a lot like a hot Chipotle bowl! It's probably the roasted peppers and onions, mmm. The vegetables tasted nearly as good as they smelled. Portions are decent, which explains the pricing. Not that the prices are outrageous, but there were definitely some items like $15 salads that I did not think were worth it especially for lunch... Easy solution: just avoid those! read more

I used to be a regular at Moonstruck's Murray Hill location because it was always a lot of food at decent prices, and I LOVED the massive salads. When I moved uptown and there was a Moonstruck nearby, I knew I had to try it...but it was a bit of a disappointment. My friend and I ordered delivery from Seamless and we both wanted the same roasted vegetable salad with chicken, but each with slight modifications (I wanted extra eggplant, she wanted to request no peppers). What kind of salad order on Seamless doesn't offer an "add grilled chicken" option? Baffling, I know, so when I wanted to write the special instructions I made it very clear to them to add the chicken and then adjust my total to reflect the added protein. Within minutes of placing my order they called me to tell me my order was incorrect and I explained the situation (though I already made it very clear in my directions but whatever, I'd rather get the RIGHT order than have to deal with hunger-induced anger if it arrives at my door all wrong). They told me they couldn't accept the charge on Seamless to adjust it, so they were recharging me for the whole thing. Fine, here's my credit card because I'm ordering food like they did in this city circa the mid 1990s. Anyway, after that fiasco, the food arrived almost an hour later (it was a Friday night) and yes, the salads were done correctly, but WHERE IS THE BREAD? Nope, none in sight. No pita for dipping to soak up the juices, and two very sad, hungry girls lingering amidst Midtown East. The salad was fine, though I like the ones from the Murray Hill location better, but SHEESH what a headache to get dinner! read more

How dare you moonstruck eatery! You lured me in from the street with your beautiful multicolor outdoor lighting. Only to serve a bland and disappointing eggs Benedict. I ordered their classic eggs Benedict for takeout. When I arrived home, I opened the food container only to reveal burned English muffins, and a sad potato hash (not home fries/herb roasted potatoes as described on the menu, and by the person who took my order). Most egregious of all, was the missing toast that came with the $15.00 plus tax eggs Benedict. The textbook creaminess of the egg yolks, was completely opaqued by the bitterness from the burned English muffins, and tasteless Hollandaise sauce. The potato hash was a sad mess of overall blandness and undercooked potatoes. I'm so disappointed, as Moonstruck Eatery is a stone's throw away from my home and I would have loved to be a frequent customer. Tips: eat somewhere else. read more

I was craving for some eggs and pancakes and for sure I had sone of the best breakfasts in a long time. I recommend this place to eat

See last paragraph for 3star rating Came here for the first time on a friday evening. This place has the typical diner atmosphere and their dishes really embody that as well. I ordered a salad with grilled chicken and my +1 ordered onion rings and a fruiter salad with crispy chicken. The entrees at this diner are in the $10-25 range but it's justified by their generous portions. I was impressed by the sheer size of our orders but the chicken in my salad was a tad rubbery and the other salad was overdressed. Also should mention that I asked for no olives and bacon (sorry bacon lovers /sadface) but got them anyways. It's okay, I just fished them out. Probably an honest mistake. Their onion rings were extra crispy but a tad overfried (real brown) but overall pretty good. I enjoyed this place though it could really be better. read more

Oh my God, Moonstruck Eatery was actually terrific. Extremely pleasant, clean, and beyond friendly. 2 Eggs that I have ordered was absolutely incredible, it had so much flavor and was absolutely delicious. The servers are pretty pleasant and polite. Yes, Moonstruck Eatery actually care that you are happy. read more

Honestly, have been loving their delivery. ESPECIALLY their desert. Banana cream and apple pie, cheesecake with a la mode has become an addiction for us during quarantine. They also have great burgers! A bit pricey but is a great quick fix craving kind of place. read more

They're open late, which is a plus, but our fried mozzarella sticks had way too much breading. We couldn't finish it. Also quite expensive for mozzarella sticks. Service was friendly. Environment is a bit tacky but comfortable. read more

Chicken and waffles. At first glance it did not seem like much. Thinly sliced fried chicken breast was not my first thought when I saw Chicken and waffles on the menu, but to my surprise it was seasoned well and delicious. The maple syrup and waffle was good too, I was just missing the whipped butter. Service was good, seats are a little un-comfy. But overall a nice place read more

The service was really slow. We were asked if we wanted coffee upon being seated and it never arrived. It took another 10 minutes after asking a waiter for coffee. There were only 2 other tables occupied. We ordered an omelet with and a French toast crunch. The French toast crunch was 4 large pieces of bread with generic cinnamon toast crunch cereal on it. It tastes okay, but there was very little or no egg used in making it. The omelet was just okay, the potatoes were tasteless (thank goodness for ketchup). The food was mediocre at best, but came in large portions for Manhattan. read more

I'd been curious about this place for a while, so figured it was time to give it a go. Typical diner. Huge menu. What to eat? What to eat? Tough decision with the variety. I ended up with their turkey burger. Quite good! Pretty standard diner fare, but good-sized portions and outstanding service. I have to say, I think my server there was probably the most attentive one I've ever had, save a very very pricey restaurant where such service should be a no-brainer. I'll be back here for sure to try more of the extensive menu. read more

Just no. Good service but nondescript, over-priced food. And not too much choice. If there's nothing else open then sure. read more

Stopped going here well more than a year ago. Last time was here late night with friends, the place was just absolutely filthy. Multiple bugs kept flying into our food. It was rated a "C" shortly there after. It currently has an "A" rating but I won't go back. Now I go to Plaza Diner on 2nd Ave. read more

We stopped in here for a quick bit after work and the decor is pleasing to the eye. They have a flat screen, but it's very small and uncomfortable to watch from where it placed near the ceiling, it's probably about 26" and it's too far up to watch easily. TV is not a big deal to me during dinner, however, I don't see the point of having the TV if it's hard for people to watch. The waiter was polite and came around a lot. Now, the food, I would say that the food is ok at best. My boyfriend had the burger and waffle fries and I had the grilled cheese and we both agreed that the food was just ok. Nothing that would compel you to return on a regular basis. read more

So I stopped into here the other day for their brunch. The place was smaller than we expected, which was fine, and the decor was a colorful industrial style. A very causal environment, very typical to what you would expect in a diner. So it was $14.95 for the brunch special which included: 1. Fruit salad 2. Coffee 3. Juice (or mimosa for $1 more) 4. Entree 5. Eggs (whatever style you like) 6. Meat (I.e bacon, sausage, etc.) It was great for the price. The good was alright. I had the Belgian waffle and bacon. The service was nice, it wasn't very busy when we arrived so we didn't have to wait at all and the server came over immediately. The food and out really quickly and the servers were just a few feet away and more than happy to help out I. Any way they could. There is nothing that truly makes this place stand out. But I do give it four stars for it's awesome service and prices considering the area. read more

My tummy hurts today. It took me 3 1/2 hours to decide what I could eat for lunch. I settled on the chicken rice soup (delivered) from Moonstruck and it was the best sick food I could have hoped for. 100% homemade with pieces of chicken, veggies and just the right amount of rice. Good job, Moonstruck! I didn't throw up. :) read more

We really love it here. My son loves to watch the fish swim. The food is always good. The service is always good. Highly recommend!

THEY DO NOT HONOR YELP DISCOUNT! Tried using this and no one knew about it. They said someone tried to use it before and they had no idea where they are getting it. The guy even suggested maybe it was another diner. However, I did come here because it had a 20% discount so I felt misled. PROS. Great place to eat. Service is fast. Atmosphere is great. Portions are big. A lot to choose from. CONS. Very hot. a litte cluttered. Certain specials were not delivered with the right sides or the actual sides at all. Although it is a big menu only certain things are offered throughout the day. read more

Moonstruck Eatery - good coffee - American Near Me - New York, New York

I work in the area and usually order lunch from this diner, from the hot soups to the sandwiches and pasta dishes I just can't get enough. Recently I went in for lunch with my boyfriend and the staff was very friendly, we were told to seat where we like. The atmosphere is very cozy great for a date night or lunch with co workers. The beautiful fish tank and huge windows were some of favorites about this place. At night you can see the Empire State Building beautifully lighten. read more

Moonstruck Eatery - Love the ceilings here - American Near Me - New York, New York

This past weekend my friend and I ate there two times. First- we each ordered a breakfast sandwich on bagels instead of toast. Our order came out quickly and was hot. I ordered the turkey bacon which was ok. Too thin so the taste was minimal. Today we went back before our flight. I ordered scrambled eggs (excellent- creamy and prepared just right), bacon, and a bagel. Love the bagels. Ordered some to take home. My breakfast was filling. My friend had an omelet and enjoyed it. Service was great. Coffee refilled often. After having Blue Bottle- nothing compares. read more

We had a wonderful breakfast here early on a Sunday morning. The service was friendly and quick, and our food was delicious. My daughter had the Nutella French toast with berries and I had the peanut butter banana pancakes, and they were great! The food came out quickly and the portions were very generous. The restaurant is nice and clean with cute decor. Overall it was a great experience! read more

I consider this diner one of the better ones in Manhattan. When I went there at night, I felt like I was sitting inside a fish tank because of all the retro decorations. The menu is huge and the orders are huge too. They have the best rice pudding and I found the service to be decent. I asked for a special order and they accomodated me. I also came here for breakfast once and the breakfast was delicious. They also have tasty coffee. read more

Below average diner place, waiters were not friendly, it felt as if they didn't want to be there and pretty much ignored us unless we specifically asked for something (we wanted a refill of our coffee and had to ask twice). Food was just average, really nothing special, and we were charged an auto-gratuity of 18% even thought it was not written on the menu and nobody informed us before ordering. There are many other places in NYC with better service, better food and better price. Definitely NOT going back and would NOT recommend it. read more

Clean, spacious, with friendly servers. Food is good, worth the price. Portions are big, shareable. Interesting dinner menu, with many options to choose from. Prices are decent. French fries are a MUST here! So good! read more

It was extremely good especially the friend Oreos but they included tip on the bill. Also ask you to put additional tip at the end. Lastly I paid for avocado on my burger didn't receive it until I told the waiter and he brought them. read more

This is one of the best diners in the city for the expectation of diner food, atmosphere and price. I would recommend getting an omelette and attach it with french fries, I've had just about every one of their omeletes here and they are all incredibly tasty, but I always crave a good western omelette (ham, cheese and broccoli). The wait service here is excellent, except to be well taken care of and have your water and coffee constantly refilled. The price is really what makes this place excellent, since it is a full meal in the East Village for under $10. They are also open 24 hours so this is a great place to attend if your leaving the bar. read more

A solid 3 stars. I came in here as my normal go-to diner seemingly changed it's food distributor (downgraded, unfortunately) so I have been looking for a new go-to. This place is conveniently located on 58th and 2nd and decorated uniquely for a diner - very modern.. thus the name Moonstruck (looks as if it was inspired by a space ship..). Upon arrival we were promptly seated in a booth. I noticed the booths were made of cloth, which personally did not appeal to me for hygienic reasons. The crowd was a bit unusual for a diner - much younger, a little more hip, and music that sounded similar to what Z100 would play was on. However, this shouldn't be that surprising as it's not decorated like a typical diner. Our waiter was very quick to ask us what we wanted to order. I had an omelette with home fries a side of toast and coffee. The omelette and toast was good, the coffee was sub-par, but the home fries (really hash browns) were flavorless and seemingly came straight from out of a frozen package. Overall, satisfying but I wouldn't run back. read more
