Second time at this place. I have today the food was bland. The server took very long for the good, I know food takes a while but there were only 4 tables open at the restaurant.. compare to tgw other time it is as busy and we got our food faster and better. Im sorry but very bad service today.
We had made our second order of the lox and bagel platter this week. Two orders this time. Asked for extra lemon, got none both orders. One slice of lox per bagel, with lots of cucumbers, onions topping. Slice of tomato and few olives. The cream cheese was slapped on bagel. It was very offensive, being people of color, with eclectic palate. We will continue going to lox and caviar specialty shops instead of risking being dissatisfied with product. I don't think they had enough smoked salmon for both orders $25,00 each order!
Although this place is busy, we got a table rather quickly and service and food was spot on. Everyone we dealt with was nice and attentive.
What a fantastic diner. Super authentic with warm welcoming staff. All the things on the menu that you would hope and expect to be there. We ate waffles and pancakes with litres of maple syrup and crispy bacon- all washed down with chocolate milkshake and coffee. Definitely worth a trip!!! Walk off the calories with a leisurely walk to the Met museum or Central Park!!! Well done ME diner, you smashed it:)
