"The food is delicious, the prices are reasonable, and Christa is always a pleasure to be around. The kids really enjoy it here, too. Plus, all the talented performers from the state opera have breakfast here, which speaks volumes about the place!"

"To celebrate my birthday, I had a few local restaurants to choose from, but with our 5-week-old baby girl, we were limited. This was our first night out, and I picked my favorite place for dinner. We are always satisfied with the food and the early bird special. The staff is consistently attentive, and the menu offers plenty of options. I love this restaurant, and it was a wonderful way to celebrate my birthday and enjoy our first night out in a few weeks. It's a large local diner in an area with several choices, but it's definitely our favorite."

"Best bagels on the UWS. I see people here complaining about prices and wait times. Most of the time I don 't get my bagels with anything on them, which may explain why I don 't have these issues?I usually buy just the bagels, get cream cheese separately from the supermarket (or sometimes a 1/4 pound container of their specialty cream cheese, usually garlic herb), and perform the necessary procedures at home myself. This is the old Upper West Side way of doing things, dating back to when the old H H Bagels on 80th Broadway ruled the UWS. (The new one on Columbus 85th 86th belongs to the H H Bagels East company, which is different and not as good).The old H H sold both bagels and cream cheese, but would not assemble them together for you. You were expected to do this yourself at home. I guess I just got used to doing things that way.Anyway. Ever since H H closed, Tal Bagels has consistently had the best bagels in the neighborhood. The everything bagels are absolutely perfect, and they have whole wheat everything too.The staff is rude because they are relentlessly overworked and always exhausted. Please try to be patient with them, and consider maybe dropping a few dollars in the tip jar. The guys who show up at 4 AM or whenever to open are the same guys who close in the evening. On top of that, there 's usually only 2 of them serving customers, and the place gets pretty busy.This is also why the closing time listed here is not quite correct (6 PM every day? LOL). They close early as often as they can, occasionally as early as 2:30 PM on Sunday. Go as early as possible, and don 't count on them being open after 4 PM."

"Was in the area and looked around on Google maps to find a place to grab lunch with my boyfriend. Decided to try this place and was so pleased! The area was clean and neat looking. The waitresses we're friendly and prompt. The food was delicious! I had the chicken tenders and my boyfriend had the gyro platter. My chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The batter was a wonderful golden brown. The fries were the same crispy and golden. My boyfriend said his gyro was good and very stuffed. The price on lunch was great too. Overall I'm really glad we stopped in and even though I live about 45 minutes away, I might just make the trip here again for that chicken. Amazing!"

"I 've dined at NYDN frequently since it opened, and I have had only two bad experiences. One was the most recent visit. When we arrived at 9:45am on a Sunday, the restaurant was nearly empty. Typically, our food arrives far more quickly than I ever expect. This time, it did not. I ordered the Challah French Toast which arrived lukewarm at best. I 'm guessing it sat under the warming lights for a while. Later, after we had finished eating, our waitress stopped by the table, and I requested a container. For the next 20 minutes, I watched her take orders, serve meals, pour coffee, etc. When she brought the container, we asked for our check. She asked if we 'd be paying by cash or credit card. Another 5 minutes or so went by until she returned with the hand-held device to take our credit card payment. I typically never tip less than 20%, but I was so upset by her overall unfriendly attitude and the 20-minute wait to get a take-away container, that I tipped only 10%. I needed a receipt, which she got from the front desk (2 steps from where we were sitting) and practically threw it on the table. Perhaps she is unaware that the word TIPS is an acronym for to insure perfect service. As I said, I have enjoyed NYDN for many, many years, so this experience won 't keep me from returning. I will, however, ask to be seated somewhere other than where she is working."

"Overall: I love their menu at least all the things I have tried so far they have fantastic vegetable options that actually are delicious. Their ice cream is so amazingly creamy and the flavors are blend well if you like multiple flavors to have two different flavor scoops like my sister and I do. Best dishes in my humble opinion: I love their shu mai, sesame chicken, healthy jumbo shrimp with vegetables and their mei fun is the best of any place I have ever gotten taken out from. We order a lot especially while we were in the process of moving. They are friendly nice, clean, polite, and deliver and their delivery people are good and polite. Plus the food is has been fairly good quality the many days we have order Other positive things: For Disabled or low mobility people they have delivery that works out fine and I don't drive so that is good for me as I can't walk more than a few feet and use a wheelchair/ walker due to mobility issue from a past injury. One day I hope to be able to go there in person and see the ambience up close as I used to go to a diner with my family as a child and it looks so much like it (at least from the street when I have passed when I did have a ride into Ridgewood a few times in the past. Vegetarian options: They have tofu, vegetable only options and they have dishes that are vegetarian There's a nice mix for vegetarian or meat eaters/ fish eaters because their food is good with or without fish or seafood or chicken, and their tofu was nice so if going with friends or family who are meat eaters or vegetarian there is a good list of options Dietary restrictions: I can't eat eggs they always leave them out I also can't eat much meat or poultry and no red meat due to health issues and I never had an issue with it all the times we order. Also my food is never too spicy which is good as I have digestive system issues that are very delicate, the food is not suffering from a few adjustments Kid-friendliness: They have kid favorites like grilled cheese"

"First of all, you had me at Pie Shoppe. I love this place. We saw the sign in passing, while heading to the freeway and promised ourselves that we 'd be back. The next morning we stopped in for breakfast. And oh, what a breakfast. While most places offer a choice of toast, muffins or biscuits...the coveted Village Kitchen Pie Shoppe offers (are you sitting down? freshly baked, hot, buttered Cinnamon Rolls, as a choice for breakfast breads. Excuse me, while a break into my Happy Dance! Oooh yeah...it 's that good! The rest of the breakfast was great also. And Josie, our server was fantastic! Her cheerful personality was just as delightful as the freshly baked, hot, buttered Cinnamon Roll. So of course, we returned for lunch and had to try a slice of pie...or five. What? Pie is in the name. There are few better ways to start (or finish your day than the Village Kitchen Pie Shoppe. Oh, and did I mention?...they have freshly baked, hot, buttered Cinnamon Rolls."

"McDonagh's Pub is a great local pub for meeting neighbors, friends and coworkers for drinks and or food. Nights with live bands can get crowded, but always a fun atmosphere. Only thing we would like to see McDonagh's Pub change is to add a few more items on their menu for vegans. The only option here is a Beyond Burger. While it is a perfectly done burger, a few choices would be welcomed."

"Old School, Simple, Tasty and Quick. These things all describe the long standing Carrollwood staple that is the Rivera Restaurant. As simple as they come this old-school style eatery offers all the basics at a price that is affordable to every budget...so long as they have cash, no plastic is accepted here. A definite nod to days gone by, the Rivera serves up quality breakfasts and lunches day in and day out. Of particular note, come and sit down here and enjoy a hot breakfast cooked to order, whether it's grits, toast, bacon, eggs, pancakes or any other conceivable combination you will not be led astray. The Chicken Parmigiana sandwich is also quite good on the lunch menu."

"love the atmosphere, our waitress was brilliant and the food was delicious. my nabeby and I have steak and vulture. He has haash-browns and I've been in the house. he asked for his steak rare it was medium rare. I asked about medium rare and it was a bit closer to well done. but still quite delicious! it was really packed, but our waitress had a lot of time for us. They had a colored book and a chronic for our three-year-old son, with whom we waited for our food. the bathroom was quite clean, but there was no change for our 7 month old."
