    Food was surprisingly actually very good. Really liked the make your own scramble and the rose water waffle was also pretty good. Portions are also pretty big and pick up was easy.

    The vietnamese coffee tasted like bland, watered down coffee. I didn't get it. Caesar salad with brussel sprouts was tasty.

    Great breakfast! I was rather limited with what I could order and choose the mushroom scramble. I really enjoyed it! It's a good portion size. I wish there was a breakfast sandwich option for those that don't eat meat or fish. You order at the counter and they'll give you a number to take to hot table of dining in. At 9:30 on a Saturday morning the cafe was at least half full. It took about 10 minutes or so to get my food. I also ordered a hot chocolate. Kind of tasted like Swiss Miss, which even though I make that a home I wanted something a little better. My friend ordered the quinoa bowl and that looked just as good if not better than mine! I'm definitely open to trying other things here now!

    Slate Cafe is such a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. It's is on the first floor of the Ansonia, with a bright and positive atmosphere, with high ceilings and a gold and blue color scheme. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. There were also many people ordering drinks and food to go. I ordered: - Avocado Burrata (16+): burrata, sliced avocado, roasted cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and balsamic glaze on rosemary focaccia + mixed greens on the side - Hot Tea ($4): lemon ginger The Avocado Burrata was absolutely delicious. It had arugula instead of basil--not sure if this was accidental or intentional, but I actually liked the combination with arugula. They have a variety of items on the menu from all-day breakfast dishes to salads and sandwiches, and I can't wait to try more.

    Good coffee, good food, and friendly service in a bright, inviting space. Pretty much everything you could ask for in a neighborhood cafe! I knew they had recently opened on 74th, but when I visited, I was pleasantly surprised the large space and food menu. We have some great coffee shops on the UWS, but fewer that serve food beyond your standard baked goods and maybe a sandwich or two. Slate has a menu that covers the wall, ranging from breakfast scrambles and waffles to bowls and sandwiches. I don't usually get excited by the thought of salads and sandwiches, but the options here are a noticeable step up from the average cafe. My avocado burrata sandwich ($16) was served on perfectly baked focaccia, and they did NOT skimp on the good stuff (avocados, burrata, and roasted cherry tomatoes). I truly wasn't expecting much and instead found myself struggling to save half like I had originally planned. My cortado was also solid and well-priced for the area ($4). The espresso wasn't anything to write home about, but it got the job done. I'm definitely interested in visiting again to try out more of their coffee and food options.

    Super cute cafe in a convenient location! Came here for brunch before visiting AMNH. I got the avocado burrata sandwich was was tasty and came with side salad. The interior was really cute and had enough seating. Service was super quick and nice. I'd definitely come here again!

    The simplest everything scone was one of the best I've ever had!

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.

    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.

The sandwiches are huge so keep that in mind. They were willing to split ours into 3 to share.

Enjoyed the experience for a quick diner meal.
