Hark! An important update! The 11:00 breakfast special with free coffee and juice is no more. (WTH!) No more free juice, only coffee -- and that ends at 10:00 a.m. Bring cash. You'll save some money. read more

Great diner in the UES. The Mansion has an extensive menu, you'll be able to find what you want. It has all the classics. You don't come to NYC looking for a Michelin starred diner, you come to a NYC for good eats and even greater people. The service is what you'd expect from a busy diner but they're honest and try their best It's playful and loud inside The Mansion, but that's what makes it feel so much better. read more

I stopped in for dinner and got the mansion smashburger. The burger was good but a little small. The fries were probably top three that I ever had. Not a bad place. read more

Came here while visiting the city with some friends who come here very often. They love this place and after coming I see why. The restaurant gave a very mom and pop diner vibe and the owner/manager was so friendly, coming around to chat and make sure everything was good. The menu is extensive and we as a party were able to get breakfast and lunch items which was great for each person's cravings at the time. I ordered the Italian sub and it was packed. Very delicious it hit the spot! I would definitely come back here and would recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a quick and simple breakfast or lunch. Very cozy feeling place, thoroughly enjoyed it! read more

A quick six-block walk south from our nearby hotel down York Avenue brought my wife, daughter, and me to the Mansion for breakfast on a Monday at 8 am. The dining room was not too busy at this time. We were warmly welcomed and shown to a large table in the corner. They have just about everything on the breakfast menu. I ordered cinnamon raisin French toast with a side of bacon (limp). They had a special on free coffee and juice with any breakfast entree, so I got pineapple juice. They can fresh-squeeze orange juice if you want that. While waiting for our food to arrive, we people-watched the passersby outside and enjoyed the Sinatra music piped in. We saw a couple of regulars show up, along with a lovely family of four with two young children. There's also a big-screen TV with NY1 news on.. My French toast was huge and delicious. The bacon came out floppy just like I prefer it. The other meals were tasty as well. Everything was excellent, and the service was friendly and prompt. We can't wait to come back again. read more

COCKROACHES! Beware eating here. Second time I've seen a roach in a few months & not just randomly dead in a corner which unfortunately is normal, but crawling NEXT to me, in BROAD DAYLIGHT with full booths of people and sounds and lights on, if they're this comfortable coming out in that type of setting how DISGUSTING must the actual kitchen be? Also the second time the cook/owner had the audacity to say "it's the weather, we can't do much about them" and walk away. Lost my appetite immediately, will never be going again and as a native New Yorker who has been in this area for years with this diner previously being a neighborhood staple, what a gross disappointment. Where's the health department when you need them? read more

Pretty good food, and the service is great. I've always had very gracious waiters. But the menu is so incredibly overpriced. Toast with deli ham and scrambled eggs, 2 sausages on the side is $40, for example, which is wild to me. But the waffles are so good it's almost worth it. That said, I'd rather walk the two extra blocks for better prices and food that's just as good. read more

Came here on a Monday night and the restaurant only had a couple tables taken. We were greeted very quickly, and seated too. We ordered two smash burgers, and one cheeseburger with fries, topped with cheese and gravy. The regular cheeseburger was good, and so where the fries; what truly takes the trophy, are the smash burgers and the fries they came with! The smash burgers were thin, yet, very filling and flavorful, and the wedge fries on the side were just fantastic: they weren't thick wedges, but not too thin either, however, they were incredibly crispy and soft in certain spots at the same time. The place looks like an older diner, which is what it is, and it is actually really nicely decorated for Halloween! The prices are a bit high, in my opinion, especially because I come from Jersey and diner food tends to be a tad bit more affordable. This is the only reason why I am giving them four stars instead of five. read more

The Mansion is a staple in the neighborhood and has been for a long time! I understand operating costs have definitely gone up over the years but I still found some of the prices here hard to swallow. A Cobb salad for nearly $30? I'm sure it's a very generous size, but that's pricey. We ended up ordering mostly sandwiches, and the prices were better, although the portions were on the smaller size. The staff were very accommodating and it's a family friendly spot so I added a star for this! Ordered: Fresh toast sticks- these were quite good and were coated in crushed cornflakes, which was something different. They came with a sprinkling of blueberries and powdered sugar on top. Sweet and spicy crispy chicken sandwich- the sandwich itself was pretty good and not greasy however, the size was very small. It came with some tasty fries that were seasoned. Breakaway chicken sandwich- this came on a large hero roll and so I thought it was a bigger portion. However, when you open the sandwich you saw that the chicken didn't take up the length of the roll so it was also on the smaller side. If you're in the neighborhood and looking for a spot with lots of options, I'd check out the Mansion! read more

I ordered a steak and egg sandwich, and the steak tasted as if it were cooked in old/rancid oil. Everything else was cooked fairly well, including my eggs, but I was so sad because I really wanted to like my food. Everything else seemed fine food-wise, and we had an excellent server. Maybe I should stick to my usual breakfast order of some iteration of Eggs Benedict. The place itself has a nice classic diner vibe, and is good for seating groups to eat together. Maybe I just got unlucky, but I am not likely to come back here. read more

They have amazing food with great sized portions. Everything is so good and fresh. I used to work next door. I miss their food every.day!

A bit on the pricey side of UES, as you can see the omelette wasn't that big and I think there was a miscommunication with our order of the pancakes, we wanted the filled cream pancakes but they ended up giving us a blueberries pancakes with pieces of strawberries. Looks pretty sad to be honest and it's because we saw pictures of other yelpers. Guess it's not the same anymore, so with that, giving them 3 stars. Staff was fast and quick with the services as far as making sure my coffee wasn't low and the food was hot. Only thing that I liked was the crispy hash browns and that was it. read more

Food used to be better, staff friendlier. Always a bit high-priced. Now not sure it's worth the cost. :(

OMG. They are located near me. I ordered in the other day after a medical procedure at 4:00PM. Not a busy hour. After not receiving my order when expected i called. Guy told me he left a while ago. My reply if he's been walking around with my food I'm not accepting cold food. Gets back on phone and said he was wrong - delivery guy leaving soon and hung up on me. Another 10-15 went by. Guy finally gets here. I am literally across the street. Food luke warm and soggy. Never order from them. read more

On Easter morning, after Mass, went to the diner with five other friends. The management was highly attentive to getting us seated during a very hectic time. Our waitress was kind, courteous, and efficient. The food was excellent. However, when I asked about a dietary concern of our waitress , another waitress, not affiliated with our table, interjected, without any solicitation from me. She proceeded to be unprofessional, inappropriate, and absolutely rude, belligerent, and aggressive. She did not relent. I also spoke with the manager about the dietary concern, and he could not have been more helpful. However, the interfering waitress, who continued to berate me to her coworkers, made the overall experience very unpleasant. As she continued in this manner , I said, am I going to be harassed during my entire meal ? to which she replied "you should've been quite in the first place." No lie ! It's shame for the diner, because I'm in a position ( my job) to share with a large number of people the best places to eat in the neighborhood. Despite the great service and the good food, I cannot recommend the Mansion based on this negative interaction with the waitress. She clearly has much to learn about customer service. We are paying customers. She is not a volunteer. We deserve courtesy. They say the customer is always right- in this case -I was. read more

This diner has a ton of strengths and weaknesses. Strategically it's located close to Carl, Schultz Park, making it a common location for families in the area - and a great spot to go for a quick stroll after you're done eating. There is plenty of outdoor and indoor seating, and the indoor almost feels like a classic bustling diner with multiple TVs and even a bar. Well staffed and with a huge menu, you won't struggle finding exactly what you want. However, the food isn't the best. Portion sizes are decent and their home-cooked potatoes are a staple item for me, but the omelettes aren't big and there isn't much flare to each dish. I get it that diners aren't meant to offer flare, but this spot makes up for it with options and location. read more

Cute and classic American diner. The only reason for the 4 stars is that it's a little pricey for the food you're getting. It's good breakfast food but there's only so much I'm usually willing to pay for breakfast/ brunch. We mostly came for Only Murders. I ordered the cinnamon raisin french toast with a side of bacon. The bacon was perfectly cooked - nice and crispy. The French toast was fantastic and not too sweet. Everything was delicious and the portions were just right. Service was fast and friendly. read more

Not sure why this is an institution. Wildly overpriced mediocre diner food. Asked for crisy bacon - came out soft. Asked for over medium eggs - came out over easy. How you gonna miss on two items for a basic breakfast dish when there's three items on the plate. Waitstaff not rude but not pleasant either. Menu doesn't state that the breakfast dishes come with hash and toast. I had to ask multiple wait staff if it did and they seemed annoyed and confused that a customer would even ask. read more

Wow! These prices are insane. The quality of the food does not align to these prices. Definitely pass.

Pricing for the type of food ordered was VERY HIGH and needlessly charging for services that other diners never would... ordered a small salad chopped and there was an additional fee of $2.50 to have some lettuce chopped!!!! OUTLANDISH PRICING! Why??? Food is ok, but the price, even by NYC standards is over-the-top. One can do much better somewhere elsewhere, and not have to worry about hidden fees such as $2.50 for a "chopped" salad". Absolutely shameful and unnecessary. read more

The 5 stars are mostly bc Alex, our waitstaff was so lovely and thoughtful and kind. She thought of the smallest details for us and asked if we needed anything several times. It's always about the feed people and not just the food. We had a veggie omelette with sourdough toast and has browns. The veggie omelette was good, but not fluffy. Sourdough Toast was okay. The hashbrowns were good with lots of crunchy areas which I love There is plenty of outdoor and indoor seating and there are two sections for indoor seating. There is also a bathroom that you walk up about four steps up. The first level and outdoor seating is totally accessible for wheelchairs, which is great and they even have two tables that accommodate wheelchairs (see pic). It seems like this place has been here over 70 years and It's still here. A lovely the overall dining experience. Oh I love th individual trash bins on each table! Cute and useful. read more

This is your typical diner. A huge plastic menu which you will never have an issue finding anything to eat. The service is nothing to complain about. And like most diners the food is just okay. You come here for the nostalgic vibes and to get something different every time. It is exactly what you would expect. I will say that it felt very expensive for a diner! A diner would have to do A LOT to end up blowing me away. You will not be let down if you come here though! read more

I was looking for a kid friendly restaurant and this worked. Two of my kids had breakfast for dinner: a Nutella and banana French toast, chocolate chip pancakes, and the third opted for Mac and cheese. No children's portions but they did serve the kids waters in plastic cups with a top and straw so no spills. Service was quick and pleasant and the food arrived speedily. As requested they served the children first. Clean bathrooms ( both bathrooms were gender neutral). My tuna wrap was a 5- just the right amount of mayo and some lettuce and small pieces of tomatoes mixed in. Overall a solid 4. Crazy expensive, but you're paying for the rent! read more

Met my aunt for lunch with my kids and ordered french onion soup, mozzarella sticks and a root beer. I was not too hungry since I had a big bagel for breakfast. My kids ordered a frittata with honey fries which they shared since it was a big portion. My aunt ordered the matzah ball soup. My French onion soup was delicious and super cheesy. I could not wait for it to cool down because I wanted to make sure I got the oozy cheese melting in my mouth. The broth and onions were not overbearing flavored which was fine for me since sometimes it can be too salty. Mozzarella sticks were nice and crispy and cheesy too, I had to share it because I was already so full. I usually can eat a lot but like I said my bagel from breakfast was very filling. The service was on point and quick, I liked the atmosphere and even though it was small and tight I still felt I had enough room to enjoy my meal at the table with my family. read more

We went for brunch on a Saturday. Mind you this is a No frills type of diner. The menu is very extensive, from breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner options. Basically any dish you crave, the Mansion has it! From eggs Benedict, homemade corn beef hash, pastas, simply crazy amount of choices. Ordered the Irish breakfast and the eggs with homemade corn beef hash. They were both delicious. I love corn beef hash, especially the homemade kind that you can tell is fresh. This place has it! All other diners I've tried in the area does not have homemade corn beef hash, which was a disappointment. The Irish breakfast was a huge portion of tomatoes, chorizo, potato hash and eggs over easy. Overall, this spot is a solid diner in the upper east side. Will return for the corn beef hash! read more

Perfectly good diner, with very hefty pricing. Service was very friendly and accommodating. I had a turkey club that was good, but they were skimpy on the serving of turkey. The cole slaw is very finely chopped. The split pea soup was very smooth and had no ham or anything else in it, which is great. The atmosphere feels like an upscale diner with nice decor and subway tiling on the walls. There are ample booths and seating for the size crowd they get. For lunchtime on a weekday, we didn't have to wait. read more

This diner has taken a serious turn for the worse. It was at one time the GO TO diner not only if you lived on the upper east but anywhere in the city. The bad news is unfortunately it is but a whisper of its former self. SHOCKING pricing, stale food and a worn and dirty restaurant. Add to this the filthiest restroom I have ever had the displeasure of entering & exiting (quickly) I have ever seen. I give it 2 stars for the hard working servers. Outside of that, save your money. read more

Hands down my favorite diner in NYC. HUGE menu and every single thing I've had there has been amazing. Homemade Corned Beef Hash is unreal, as well as their potato pancakes / latkes, and the matzo ball soup is very good as well (though not the best in New York). Anyone can find something incredible to eat here. 5 stars, cannot recommend enough. read more

Waited about 20 minutes after looking over menus and closing them to finally order. The place wasn't busy yet service was a bit slow.

Food is good. Portions decent. Staff very nice. Restaurant ambiance casual. However it is expensive.

I discovered this place on DoorDash some time last year when I was looking to fill a burger craving while living in UES. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the burger as it was juicy and the sauce complemented it really well. Since then this has been one of my top burger spots in the city that I still go to despite having moved back to the UWS. The burger is definitely one of my favorites and I also really like the fries that come with it. It's like a potato wedge, crispy outside but soft inside and it has seasoning options. My boyfriend and I like the Nashville hot and nacho seasoning to go with the fries. The house sauce is a must have to dip with the fries as well. I've never ordered anything else on the menu because we only ever come here for the super smasher combo and it hits the spot every time. Pricing is comparable to other NYC diners, though the portions might not be as much. It's still just right and filling. We tried hot chocolate on our last visit, and it's definitely more sugar than chocolate so we'll just be sticking to our tried and true burger combo moving forward. Service is usually quick and people are responsive. The interior of the diner is comfy and they have really cute booth seating areas even for couples. read more
