Stopped by for a bottle of sparkling water on a sunday evening. Lots and lots of drinks / snacks/ food options. Price seems to be reasonable. Most importantly, very clean space and friendly employees. There is also seating area upstairs which is pretty nice. read more

I always come here for my breakfast. The guys who prepare my orders always get it right

I went to this establishment for lunch this past week, and I had a great time there. The decor is clean, the food is delicious, and the ambience is perfect. This is honestly the best deli I've gone to in NYC. I can't wait to go back! read more

Prices are different every single time, I order the same salad from there almost every other day and the price goes up for no reason!

Priced by the pound buffet selections are great and there's a lot of variety. I had to hold myself back from over-picking! There are also different stations where you can get food to order. Seating upstairs is limited but manageable. There are outlets if you need to charge your phone! I know this may be superficial but I like that their logo is printed on their floor mats and on the hot drink paper holders that adds a nice touch. Open 24 hours for late owls/early birds. read more

This is one of my favorites. I work nearby and I can always count on a delicious breakfast sandwich made quickly or a great salad for lunch. read more

We were visiting New York and checking out all the touristy spots. While walking near Bryant Park on Christmas day, we found this place open. We walked in for lunch and ordered some hot sandwiches to go, which they made right in front of us. They have a decent list sandwich options. As we were about to leave, we noticed a hot food bar towards the inside of the shop. They served some hot noodles, fried rice, sesame chicken etc. These food options looked great. Wished we had seen this before we ordered the sandwiches. Maybe next time. Please do go inside and checkout all the food options before just reading their displayed menu and placing your order. They even had seating upstairs. read more

Great food, great service and open 24hrs! I always get my morning coffee here and lunch as well. They have a good selection of food in their buffet. Plus the food tastes really good. read more

The food is good but the customer service is awful! From the salad bar server to the checkout woman, they were horrible. True definition of bad customer service. And what's worse this is the third time I went and the service was the same. I hope things change because this is not a good look for them. The food is good and since we are spending money, their service should be too! read more

I saw the balloons outside and made it a point to stop in for lunch the other day. I grabbed some sushi: a salmon avocado roll. I'm didn't see any mixed rolls, not even the typical tuna avocado and salmon avocado combo. I prefer getting those ones (with brown rice). I thought the pricing was pretty competitive for the area and I definitely enjoyed my lunch. They didn't have low sodium soy sauce, but they have different options. The packet I grabbed wasn't too bad. The place seems really clean and I like the light up name. I'll definitely be back again. read more

I used to come here as a little kid when my dad would take us to his office on 41st street and get bacon and eggs on toast. Then one day I found out you could have that on a bagel and voila; I had my first BEC on a bagel here. Fast forward 20 years and I started working on 42nd a few years ago. I like to get breakfast/late night snacks/beer here. Service is prompt and the place has been cleaner then ever since the renovation. The menu has also expanded since the renovation/rename to include a variety of lunch and dinner options: sushi, bimbimbap, ramen, burritos, etc. If you're nearby and need something quick, give them a try. read more

I ordered a salad - they mistaken the ingredients I asked for, then after putting them in told my I should "speak louder". They didn't try to correct the mistake but expected me to beat the salad with vegetables I didn't ask for. Then I asked for balsamic vinegar dressings. When I saw the dressing is only balsamic vinegar and nothing else I asked to add olive oil and salt and got scolded again that I had to say it earlier. It was an unpleasant experience. If they correct their costumer service it would be a decent lunch place. read more

Grand opening today. Have all kinds of different stations. The hot and cold buffet is on par at $8.99 a pound. I brought a pound of duck, fish, beef, lo mien, etc. they have breakfast specials, a salad bar, a soup bar, etc. read more

Happy this place is back, including some of the old faces from the former cafe42. As always, great breakfast - bacon, egg, and cheese is big, on a good bagel, and 3.75 + tax ($5 minimum for credit cards) Also have pancakes, fresh fruit, oatmeal, etc. Lunch has some good options from sandwiches and burgers to ramen and stir fry. Prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area. Not too crowded, but enough traffic to keep fresh food coming out all through lunch. read more

Clean, fresh, good food. Great place for breakfast or lunch. Very well run establishment. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE the gus making the food. Not nasty rude guys like Essen on Madison and 41st. They smile, greet you and gget your order right. They really cleaned this place up nice after the renovations. LOTSSS of drink varieties. Grilled chicken at lunch is yummy and seasoned well. read more

Great food and great prices. The guys handling the salad counter must hate their job, extremely rude... even when you're kind to them.

My job wants to do weekly lunches here but their online order system does not allow you to order nothing other than coffee or tea. This is the same for Doordash read more

Beware - they round prices up and nickle and dime you whenever they can. For example, if a sandwich is listed for $5.95 on the menu they round it up to $6.00. While it is only 5 cents it's just wrong. Food however, it good. read more

They used to be very good and servicing and taking order. The newer people staffed at taking orders are unfriendly and always make mistakes during breakfast time. Bring back the good service! read more

the ghetto-est, 8-dollar-est chicken ramen i've ever gotten. but when you're hungover, this shit is the cure. my ears popped eating it. my sinuses opened up. my headache went away. splashed some sriracha in that bad boy, stir it around and slurp it down. broccoli, carrots, shallots mishmoshing with chicken in top ramen quality-noodles in a ramen broth that they create it in under 3 minutes flat. aside from the food, i appreciate the clean aesthetic of this place as well as the options. sushi for 5.95. oh hey future lunch. big ass salads for 9 bucks. duly noted. this is a place ill def come back to when i need a value lunch. read more

They do not take there time the food was not cooked properly they rush the fucking order all the time the whole sandwich taste like fuckiNg plastic .... fucking unbelievable never fucking eating there read more

Good service, good selection of hot and cold food, and pretty decent seating upstairs. Perfect for the type of food court you want to be in and out quick during work lunch. read more

Looking for affordable and yummy in manahattan this is the spot... clean.. pleasant people.. I look forward to coming here every Tuesday when I have class in the city. read more

The food is pretty bad here. It always makes me feel sick to my stomach though there is never really a wait at this place.

This place has a very good service and a very tasty buffet. I highly recommend it for lunch. The kale salad is the best I ever eaten. The people who work there are really nice too. read more

This place is very clean and has a big variety of foods. I stopped by early in the morning and staff is very kind and very fast. There are so many people in line but I barely waited five minutes to get my food. I ate breakfast there and it tasted very good and it was also at a very reasonable price. I will definitely visit many more times! :) read more

Great food, very quick cashier service. I can be in and out of there in 5 minutes so its perfect if I'm in a rush.

Highway robbery and poor customer service!!! I know it's midtown and it's expected but this place charges exorbitant prices for mediocre food, (at best), with a side of 'tude. I used to come here because of the convenience, (a short walk from my office), but I will not be returning. If you order a salad, the workers don't tell you your options, they get annoyed if you ask questions and rush you through the process. With the sandwiches, they charge an extra dollar if you order a wrap, even though it contains the same amount of ingredients and they've run out of rolls. Whole Foods is cheaper than this place and the quality is way better. With so many options in this area, there's no need to waste your money here. I gave this place many chances but they never quite redeemed themselves. read more

Tabletime is one of mine favorite place to have lunch , food is always fresh and service is great.

This is your typical everything deli where they have a wide selection and everything is done poorly. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and the guy behind me ordered a hamburger. Just as the worker is about to wrap my sandwich I asked for cherry peppers. He seemed upset by this request and instead of just putting the peppers on the sandwich, he grabbed a raw patty with his gloved hand then proceeded to dip the same hand in the tin of peppers. Incredulously, I turned to the gentleman who ordered the burger and he saw it as well. I made a crack about making friends with the toilet later that night. The rude worker mumbled something about "why didn't you tell me you wanted the peppers first?" I was confused as to why he grabbed the raw patty when all he had to do was place them on my sandwich and wrap it up. He changed gloves and made me another one. I watched him like a hawk. I was in such shock it didn't occur to me until after I ate the sandwich that the peppers are still sitting in the contaminated juice. If they're willing to blatantly disregard health laws in front of customers, I can imagine what's going on back in the prep room. Don't go here unless you need to lose a few lbs in 2 days. read more

Favorite place to stop by for breakfast in the morning! Prices are good and I'm usually in and out within five minutes. Workers are friendly and attentive to your requests. read more

Great spot for a quick bite. Really good selection. Food is very fresh. Prices are fair. Very clean.

The Bibimpap is nothing to brag about. Def not something I would get again for almost $10.00. It's definitely been reheated a bunch of times before reaching my plate. I'll pass read more

This place is a rip off! They will charge you whatever they want. I would go there 2x a day, for breakfast and lunch. For lunch I order the same thing ( a turkey cold cut sandwich) and each time I go there charge me a different price. one day it will be $6.50. Then the next it is $7, and I lost it when it was $7.50 another time. I would never alter my order, it would be the same exact thing and a different price every time. They will write whatever they want and charge you whatever. When I confronted them about it, he said okay I will give to you for 6.50. it is just sad that it isn't an honest business. I asked for manager and he had nothing to say. I will never spend another dime there again. read more
