Empire Diner is a modern take on a classic NYC diner. The menu has a nice mix of comfort food staples and more updated dishes, so it works whether you want something familiar or a bit different. Prices felt okay for the area, and most importantly, everything I had was genuinely delicious. Great spot for an easy, satisfying meal with that diner vibe, just a little more polished.
Empire Diner is a fun spot with both indoor and outdoor seating. The service is great, and the food is delicious. The Eggs Benedict was superb. It gets filled up quickly, so I highly recommend making reservations.
Great and atmospheric place with fancy vibes! The food was good and surprisingly less expensive than we expected! We will definitely come back for dinner.
