    Last morning in NYC, went there for breakfast. I had the 2 egg breakfast, while my wife had a Mexican omelet. Met a former Broadway (and local diner there) singer and had a good conversation with here. Quite the NY character. Staff was friendly and food was good.

    Classic NY diner food in the area. Reasonable prices for near grand central. Solid cheeseburger! Fried calamari was very stale and hard though. Service was great.

    Greeted as soon as I walk in. Being that it wasn't extremely busy I was able to pick my booth . First time here and I enjoyed myself! Food was fresh & delicious. It was about 12:30pm it was a nice space not to busy when I went but a continuous flow of people in and out. Everyone that works there was nice & attentive to what I wanted. Side note( To my my bigger people the booths are kinda tight) I'm not sure if they have chair seating. I also bought some sweets for home to share.Plain cheese cake it was good not overly sweet & A strawberry shortcake light & fluffy . Both good.

    Good food, nice outdoor seating, but pricey for the quality. The food here is pretty good and we enjoyed our meals. Fries could have used more seasoning. They have a nice outdoor patio which is great with everything going on. Only complaint is that it’s really pricey, even for New York - a panini with fries is $16. Overall pretty good though.

    Great corner diner with the usual deep choice of dishes and fast, efficient service. This one is a bit if a Murray Hill institution and it doesn't disappoint. The healthier options for a late breakfast (such as yogurt) are not just after thoughts.

    A pretty good neighborhood diner. I visited in the morning for brunch, the diner was a good level of busy with what felt like locals, always a good sign if construction workers are using a diner. French toast was great, staff were attentive and helpful (even adding a side of peanut butter). Coffee wasn't up to my incredibly high diner coffee standards, but that aside all good. Toilets however are down a flight of stairs, so not great for wheelchair users or anyone who's got limited mobility.

    Cheesecake was delicious, had to wait a long time for 2 slices though.

    Pretty nice place to get a good meal in. I got the ABLT, and some fries on the side. Pretty good, and well cooked meal. The place feels warm and homey, as if grandma is making your meal. The service is quick and the waiters there are awesome.

    This place is amazing. Great service, great food. Do not hesitate to visit. This is a functional diner within easy walk of Grand Central/Times Sq (for the tourists like us), if you want to get away from the more plush/expensive/soul-less places. We visited for bruch, which included free tea/coffee, and a bloody mary, screwsrive or mimosa, or a juice. Service was clockwork efficient. We'll be back when we next visit NYC.

    I was in NY for fun and was really hungry one.night ant it was late. Gemini was the only place within walking distance. After reading some reviews, I thought I would try it but wasn't expecting it to be great. We were greeted and seated right away, I loved the cool and laid-back vibe. Good amount of people eating and chit chatting. The menu is pretty big, but I just wanted a burger, and it did NOT disappoint! Juicy and perfectly cooked! The fries weren't as warm as I would have liked, but I was fine with that. We were checked constantly by our server. I would go back!!

    Great diner! Friendly and attentive service. Good juicy cheeseburger with fries and an ice cream soda float.

    Been looking for a goto diner in the neighbourhood and I think we may have found the one. First try was pretty promising, we went for brunch and they had good value brunch items and as with most diners copious quantities of food. The quality of the food was good too. The only snag was that the service was a little slow. It seemed like they were understaffed. Clean and decent decor. Will try again.

    We were in the area at 5 in the morning, and lucky for us, this place was open and serving coffee and a Good classic American breakfast.
