    Coming to this diner was a nod to my mom; her name's Tina and she used to love eating breakfast at local diners! So coming here was a treat already! The place has an old school feel to it, which I absolutely love! When I step into a diner, I want that classic 70s aesthetic with random framed pictures of old newspaper clippings and such! You know ow it's gonna be good! And sure enough, this place was excellent! Hearty, delicious breakfast was served by hard-working, attentive employees, that carried a smile the whole time! Needless to say, we'll definitely be back soon!

    Chicken and waffles

    I went to this place to eat some breakfast yesterday. I ordered the chicken tenders and waffles and they tasted great. The waffles tasted like buttermilk and the chicken tenders were well deep fried as well. This is definitely a good place to dine in!

    Tina's Place is an unassuming spot in Bushwick, bordering East Williamsburg. It is the perfect diner because it doesn't try to be anything it isn't. Very traditional, run by the same family for a looong time, and very delicious. I visited on a Sunday morning and it was packed before 10:30! They have a deal for a free coffee before 11am which could explain why. To me, the waffle menu didn't seem very exciting but we ordered the california (?) omelet and the blueberry pancakes. The omelet was really tasty, but it isn't a huge portion. Luckily, they had hot sauce out to go with it. There's also something about getting toasted white bread with butter that is surprisingly good. The blueberry pancakes were also good! Very classic, nothing fancy about it. Unfortunately I have a pretentious preference for fresh maple syrup, but I won't knock any stars off for a lack of finesse. The prices were really fair and it felt like you were going to a local spot which can be hard to find in this area. This is an easy five stars, and I will certainly visit again.

    Corned beef hash plate with over easy eggs
    Raul Q.

    This place has the feel of an old school diner. No frills diner with good food. Corned beef had seemed like it was from a can but still good. Potatoes cooked with onions, bell pepper, and a tomato sauce need salt but that was a minor fix Servers were very attentive and did well. Not bad for the most important meal of the day.

    Pancakes

    When you think of a NY Cade, this is exactly what you get. Busy, fast service, typical cafe food, reasonable prices. Despite the hustle and bustle we found a table prettt quickly and got assisted right away. Can't complain about the food, very homemade and tastes like cafe food should taste. I'd go back, just felt like a normal place locals go to eat.

    Meatloaf breakfast platter

    I didn't think much of the diner when I saw the pictures of the food and the interior but was curious about the high ratings. The breakfast was surprisingly great. The potatoes were well seasoned and golden, eggs over easy was runny, and the meatloaf was flavorful. I don't believe they serve free coffee before 11am anymore as I don't see it on the menu. I paid $1.50 for coffee and $11.50 for the meatball platter. Cash only establishment. Would definitely be back!

    Awesome diner that's been in Bushwick for over 80 years! It's a great spot for classic breakfast items and remains cash only. There is an ATM and they now have outdoor street seating. If you're hungry and don't want to spend a lot Tina's is a great spot to stop by.

    This my 10th time at Tina's ! The food is always consistent tasty and the prices ? Well amazing !

    California omelette which has avocado, tomato, bacon and cheddar cheese! So good!

    This place is a 10 out of 10. Great service and even better food! I had a California omelette which has avocado, tomato, bacon and cheddar cheese! So good!

    French toast and bacon
    Philip L.

    Food - the food was good the French toast was very tasty. I can taste the sweetness of it without any maple syrup added yet. The vanilla taste was there and hint of cinnamon which I like. The bacon was alright nothing crazy about it. The French fries were a let down as it was crispy and soft inside it was also flavorless I had to add a lot of salt to make it better. Overall do get the French toast it is worth it!! Service - the service was great. I felt invited as soon as I walked in I was greeted right away and told to sit anywhere. The server got me coffee real quick and got my order within 5 mins of sitting down. Food came out quick too. Scenery - the place is very classic vibes almost everything inside is made out of wood. The vibe I felt was welcoming and cozy. It was very hot in there since I was sweating a bit. But I did enjoy eating and chatting in there. Price - the price was amazing the whole made for me and my girlfriend was $33.50 before tip of course. For the food and service from this place it's worth every penny. I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the neighborhood. Overall 4.2/5

    The Basic Meat
    Kait M.

    Very classic diner. Love the wall to wall wood paneling for a retro feel. Big portions for low prices and very fast service. I got "The Basic Meat" with eggs over medium and bacon and it came just how I like it. I see why it's a neighborhood staple!

    5/27/2026 What could I say about this place that everyone…read moredoesn't know about..... absolutely nothing lol. Always recommend getting a reservation weather calling or walking to the booth. Our wait was at least an hour and a half and were texted when our table was ready. They have indoor and outdoor seating with one bathroom for all to use. We got the viral pancakes and they were everything you'd dream they be and then some for sure very filling and buttery. I got a "pick me up" and it was perfect gave me a beautiful caffeine kick to start the day I recommend for sure. Weather you come for the viral moment this feels like a solid staple in the community with bright music playing everyone kind of everywhere and just a relaxed feel that you can't wait to enjoy after you get seated. Bathroom rating 5/5 very clean for how busy the place is :)

I got here on Monday…read moremorning at around 11:00 am to put my name down for a table of 2 and there was already an hour and 45 minute wait. After running a couple of errands while waiting for the table to be ready, we were seated outside at the patio after an hour and 45 minutes. We ordered the famous honey butter pancakes, the korean wings, and the breakfast sandwich with hash brown, scrambled eggs, and sausage. The honey butter pancakes were pretty good but kinda drenched in the butter that made it hard to finish. The korean wings were also alright but the batter to me was kinda thick and heavy and lacked crispiness. The best item we ordered was the breakfast sandwich with hashbrown, scrambled eggs, and sausage. I think the eggs are cooked with cheese, and as someone who typically does not eat cheese, I didn't mind it. I don't know if I'll be back again - I think the concept of an asian twist on the classic diner does sound intriguing but difficult to execute. I also wasn't a big fan of the wait time. If you typically like heavier, diner food then this spot might be the place for you!

The mix of a thousand island type sauce with ketchup made this burger a 10/10. The sesame bun gives the burger a great softness with all the other textures. + the fries gave me the feeling of an elevated mcdonald's fry! caesar salad was perfect. Lots of lettuce, not overly anchovy and just the croutons were soft and crisp at the same time? very much enjoyed how big of a portions all of these items were. chicken parm sauce was tangy and had good flavoring with the perfect melted cheese on top of the soft but crisp edges of the chicken. i'd highly recc all three items we got! service was quick once we got seated and was nice to be outside in the warm weather.

While they have all the traditional breakfast fare, I was so happy to see it also had a Caribbean twist to it. I couldn't help myself--I had to order rice and beans with pernil (pork shoulder) and a side of sweet plantains. Of course, I wanted some actual breakfast items, so we got the French toast loaded with fruit. We also got both the tres and quatro golpes, which is a traditional Dominican breakfast. Lastly, we got a Caribbean omelet. My rice and pernil was solid. The rice could've used a tad bit more seasoning but when mixed with the side of beans and plantains plus a drizzle of hot sauce it was perfect. They had a variety of sauces--Tabasco (my fave), a Jamaican one that was super spicy, and a mild homemade one. The tres/quatro golpes was also a hearty choice with mangu (mashed plantain), sausage, fried cheese, and eggs. The pickled red onion balanced everything out. The fried cheese is similar to a halloumi but I think it's a bit more flavorful. All the flavors just melt together in your mouth perfectly. The French toast and omelet were good. I'd say the Caribbean items stole the show though. The place has a typical diner vibe and is on the small side. Food was served quickly and service was good. Discount if you pay in cash. I will be coming back to try their Cuban!!

The menu is huge - pretty much anything you can want from a diner is on it, including a full bar. Also, the service is incredibly helpful and friendly.

From this first visit, we've ended up coming in many times during all times of day whether that was a late night dinner or hungover breakfast, Grand Canyon just hits the spot. It is not your fanciest meal, but it is comfort personified. While the carbonara is what made me fall in love with Grand Canyon (perfectly creamy and non-skimping on the crunchy bits of bacon), I've also yet to find a pulled pork sandwich as good as the one Grand Canyon puts together. I haven't left disappointed and hope this gem stays in the neighborhood forever. Long live Grand Canyon

Apparently there is more than one location in Manhattan. The inside reminded me of a classic diner. Comfy and with a pretty cool vibe. We all slid into a booth and looked over the seasonal offerings along with their standard menu. I was lured by the chicken Kyiv based on the picture of having two rolled up chicken cutlets stuffed with dill and other yumminess, but was a bit disappointment when it arrived with a single small cutlet on my plate with two heaping mounds of potatoes mash and broccoli. I instantly had regret when I should have gotten the borscht soup with pierogies, but wanted to try something I wouldn't usually. I should've stuck to what was safe. My work mom got the stuffed cabbage and that was a clear homerun- really loved the mushroom gravy that it came with. My other colleague got the potato pancake and wasn't too thrilled with it, while my boss got the two Swedish meatballs that he described to be Ikea worthy. Although this was my first time here, I can't say that anyone really loved the food nor would come out of their way to come back. I really was hoping this would have wow-ed me in some way, but I guess I'll stick to what's familiar.
