"This charming, old-fashioned luncheonette feels like a nostalgic throwback to a time when everyone was familiar with one another. Once upon a time, New York had places like this on every block, but now they are as rare as hen's teeth. Where else in the city can I walk in and have the waiter already know my usual order? The standout dishes here are the ones that take a bit of preparation, particularly the breakfast, which features all the classics. And I must say, the sausages here are the best I've had in years. The neighborhood is truly fortunate to have this gem, and each year I find myself worrying that it might close and be replaced by a nail salon, a new pharmacy, or a bar aimed at twenty-somethings."
