Imma give a 4 not only because it's local and convenient for me, but the pricing and service is good. Coming home late after a couple drinks definitely a good spot. Even for an after school snack!

I visited the food truck at the lantern festival this weekend in Montclair. The people working were so helpful and friendly, even though they were SWAMPED. My family purchased the ube buchi and the flan cake. THAT FLAN CAKE IS MY NEW FOOD OBSESSION!! We also LOVED the ube buchi! We warmed them up at home 🥰 they are chewy and filled generously, the toasty sesame seeds are perfectly crunchy. My family went back after we left the festival just to get the ube cake rolls filled with cream 😂 we need

This is hands down the best Vietnamese sandwich shop in NYC in my opinion. Prob one of the best in America. The food is always fresh and absolutely delicious. OUTSTANDING! The “Hog” is the sandwich to order.

Global chain of counters dispensing sweet & savory soft pretzels with a variety of toppings & dips.
Got a bucket of cinnamon sugar pretzel bites. Service was quick but some of the monitors were broken so it was hard to see what was available on the menu. 🥨 The pretzel bites were pretty soft but a bit too doughy I feel. Maybe a lighter bread texture would be better? Still good to have but wish it was warmer!

Food is decent but they try to scam you. I saw them weight my requested roast pig. The scale said 19.31 clearly and they saw me watching. The lady then asked for 21.50. I said why as the scale stated otherwise. The lady and cutter said cost of business. I disagreed and they made a big stink abt it. Buyer beware.

My wife wanted crepes, so we got crepes. I have never had a crepe with bacon, eggs and cheese, but I want another! My wife loved her strawberry, blueberry and Nutella crepe. We’ll be back!

Issued Food Rating: A Inside: Clean & Quiet Dining Service: Friendly Delivery Speed: 25 minutes (Can Vary) Excellent food for a great price. One of the major reasons I have gotten from this restaurant time and time again is that you can eat for under $14.00. I get a combination and it comes with a drink and an eggroll for $12.50 I will keep coming back as long as it stays reasonable.

This is a surprisingly nice place. Very quiet, great drink selection. It’s great that there are so many organic options. I would highly recommend this place. The prices are very reasonable. The server was very pleasant. We will definitely be back.

I stumbled upon Steak Street, which is a steakhouse to go on Lex while out for a lunchtime walk, and I’m glad I did. After checking out their menu online, I decided to order dinner for my family that evening. Ordering online was quick and seamless, and the menu is impressively comprehensive. I ordered two cheesesteaks with peppers and onions, along with a side of fries and a side salad. The cheesesteaks were very good. I have pretty high standards when it comes to cheesesteaks, having spent m

I like this restaurant but this is the issue I have with them today. I asked them to send plates with the order like they usually do. I added pictures to show you the plates they sent me. The food is great and always on time, and the customer service is amazing.

They gave me raw chicken and refused to give me my money back. I called the cops and they still didn’t give me my money back. The “owner” also threatened me because i didn’t want another order and asked for my money back. He’s a man and said he would forcely remove me from the shop

Effy’s is truly just what the neighborhood needed. I live right across the street & come here almost daily. ☕️ their coffee is strong & amazing ☀️ there’s ample outdoor seating that get’s a lot of direct sunlight. as a New Yorker I appreciate every ounce of sunshine I can get. 🍳they have affordable breakfast options!!! I have struggled to find this in the area. My pick is the $8 avocado toast and adding on an extra egg. 🍊they have table service! So take a seat and relax. 💻 laptops are al

We have been to this MATTO several times over the past year. It s conveniently located on busy 1st Ave next to TAL Bagels. This time we ordered an Americano which was delicious and a blueberry muffin, which was good but too much like a sponge cake. We like it a little firmer and stiff crust. Only a few seats but very pleasant to sit by the window and watch NY pass by. And the staff are always very nice and efficient.

So happy Corner Bistro is here!! As a decades long fan of Sidewalk (RIP!!) this finally feels like the perfect fit and a NYC staple for this space/corner. I've been here many times already -- for lunch, dinner, drinks, and even a coffee to work at the bar. Great staff, delicious food (limited menu FYI -- just burgers and fries/tater tots mainly, which are delicious), and nice/classic ambiance. Burgers, Beers, and Shots!! You'll enjoy 😋😀

Pretty spartan place and it doesn't need to be any more. Attentive staff. Coffee was nice and bitter - and that is a personal choice. I was able to walk to Bryant Park from this location, sit to drink my coffee and watch the public unfold a giant US flag for later today's 250tj anniversary festivities .

Cute cafe with delicious coffee and food! Loved the cozy vibe and friendly service. A great addition to the neighborhood. The egg breakfast was perfect - hands down the best bacon!!!! The rotisserie chicken sandwich was very flavorful - and with the green sauce 🤌 amazing! Looking forward to trying more on the menu.
