all the reviews for this place are so weird.

go if you're hungry and in the neighborhood and want diner-variety food.
i got a special here once and it was pretty bad, but then i went back and got a burger and soda for like $6.50 and it was a great deal.

great people-watching, as you can imagine.

oh yorkville.

Worst. Coffee. EVER.

I figured it would be safe to get a latte here. Why not? Well, the latte tasted more like day-old, reheated coffee with some lukewarm milk and a pathetic topping of milk foam. The only good thing about the coffee was that when I spilled it on myself, it wasn't hot enough to burn me.

This cafe was the first place that me and the misses went to eat at after a lengthy bus ride from D.C... it was a good way to start off the New York part of our vacation! (:

We just checked in to our at-first shady looking hostel which ended up being pretty cool! We decided to take a walk and find a restaurant on the way and we stumbled across this cafe.

The burgers were pretty hefty and the fries looked amazing at first sight. They were the perfect color. The fries were golden, had colors of spice, and were that good-looking orange.. I hope you get what I mean. The portions looked great, and the prices weren't bad either. After kind of arguing about what kind of food we wanted, we decided to eat here.

The waiter gave us a seat outside, a totally new experience to grub near the sidewalk! I ordered the Texas burger which had a fried egg inside, and $2.00 more for veggies/fries. SO WORTH IT! My girlfriend enjoyed her burger a lot too. It looked good (minus the fungus aka mushrooms, ew). The patty was charbroiled perfectly and the fries lived up to what they looked like, mmm! Everything was great, except our water refill was kind of lagging... but my girlfriend and I both agreed that it seriously tasted like bottled water, so it evens out. We got water because the only beverages they have are bottled drinks.

Definitely coming back to this place again :]

My co-worker took me a few weeks ago when we both had an insane day at work and I was craving you guessed it - burgers!!

The first time I came to this place, I had the NY Burger which was basically a nice thick medium cooked beef patty with bacon, american cheese, fried onions and bleu cheese dressing that came with a healthy serving of spicy fries.

Since I wanted to counter balance the fattyness - I opted for the sunrise smoothie (yes I do believe pureed fruit with yogurt will prevent the onset of my impending heart attack)

Consequently, I've returned to this place several times, choosing the California and the East Side burger respectively.  Both times these experiences with the burgers hit the spot!

I absolutely would NOT recommend this place.  I went here a couple of times and the food was fine, but the last time, the waitress was beyond rude.  Considering the prices, it is not worth dealing with rude people.  Id rather walk an extra block or two and get better quality with a smile (or at least without the attitude).

I really enjoy going to this spot.  They seem to have a great variety of things  I like to eat.  I love sitting outdoors when they have their tables set up in the summer too!
