This diner gave us the perfect classic American diner experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit.<br><br>We came for breakfast and ordered a few traditional breakfast dishes. Everything tasted fresh and was clearly prepared after ordering. The chicken and waffles were especially delicious. We also appreciated that they offered turkey sausage and turkey bacon, which can be hard to find.<br><br>The seating area overlooks the street, creating a lovely atmosphere and making it enjoyable to sit, relax, and watch the city go by.<br><br>Overall, a great breakfast spot with good food, friendly service, and a charming diner feel. We would happily visit again.

Response from the owner

Your review perfectly captures what we strive to create. A place where guests can enjoy a great meal, relax, and feel welcomed from the moment they walk through the door.<br><br>We're delighted that you enjoyed breakfast with us and took advantage of the street-side views while dining. Thank you for your thoughtful review Eman. We hope to see you back for another round of chicken and waffles soon!

Tonight was a great example of strong leadership on the floor. The manager stayed calm under pressure, communicated clearly with both FOH and BOH, and kept service moving smoothly even during the busiest moments. Problems were handled fast without affecting the guest experience, and the team felt supported the entire shift. You can tell they genuinely care about standards, organization, and the staff. A well-run shift from start to finish, Edgar.

Response from the owner

We truly appreciate this thoughtful review. Keeping things running smoothly during busy shifts takes teamwork and strong leadership, and we're lucky to have Edgar leading by example. Thank you for the recognition Rodrigo!

My all-time favorite late night diner in NYC! Open 24 hours, perfectly situated near some of the city’s best nightlife and entertainment — and worth every one of the 40+ blocks I’ve traveled just to get there before. The staff is genuinely kind and accommodating, and the kitchen goes out of its way to honor requests. For someone with dietary restrictions, finding a place I can eat at safely and without worry is no small thing — and this is one of the rare spots that delivers on that every time. The over-easy eggs are sublime and Divinely created - made with love and care. The yolk is drippy and gooey perfect to mop up with toast or hash browns. In fact, you’ll want to. This is a kitchen that takes pride in its craft — and it shows. A true NYC gem.

Response from the owner

A true NYC gem deserves true NYC guests like you Amanda, thank you! <br><br>This perfectly captures what we hope Remedy feels like for people - comforting, welcoming, and reliably good at any hour of the night. <br><br>We appreciate all the love and support over the years 😊

Stopped by Remedy Diner at about 2am last night and had a great experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a late-night diner. Everything came out hot and well prepared.<br><br>What really stood out was the management and staff. Even that late into the night, everyone was welcoming, attentive, and professional. You can tell the place is well managed and takes pride in both the food and customer service.<br><br>Great atmosphere, excellent service, and delicious food. Highly recommend.

🌃🍽️ Remedy Diner has quietly become one of my regular late-night New York spots over the past few months — the kind of place that reminds you why classic diners remain such an important part of the city’s character.<br><br>Open 24 hours, it offers something increasingly rare in NYC: consistency, comfort, and a welcoming atmosphere no matter the hour. Whether stopping in after a long evening, for a late meal, or simply to sit and reset for a moment, there’s a reliability to the experience that keeps people coming back.<br><br>The staff has always been warm, attentive, and accommodating, helping create an environment that feels relaxed and genuinely inviting. Even late at night, there’s an energy to the space that reflects the rhythm of the city itself — a mix of regulars, conversations, movement, and that unmistakable New York feeling.<br><br>In a city constantly changing, places like Remedy Diner continue to matter because they offer familiarity, accessibility, and atmosphere all at once.

Response from the owner

This means so much to our team, thank you! We’ve always believed a great diner is about more than just food; it’s about creating a space that feels comforting, familiar, and welcoming at any time of day or night. <br><br>We’re honored Remedy has become one of your regular NYC spots 😊

I went to Remedy Dinner on a Thursday night it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious I had the chocolate chip pancakes it was to die for. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really tell they care about quality and customer service. The portions were generous, and everything came out perfectly cooked. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend Remedy Diner

Response from the owner

We truly appreciate your kind words! It’s wonderful to hear that the food, service, and atmosphere all made for such a memorable experience. <br><br>We’ll be ready with another stack of chocolate chip pancakes for your next visit 🥞

Got espresso martinis and falafel. The martinis espresso flavor was good and service was quick but def not strong enough. The falafel was warm and crispy and the tiziki sauce was flavorful, presentation was mid. Love the old school diners vibes and the fact it had a full bar. Was able to walk right in and had a seat at the bar.

Response from the owner

Hey Carlene - appreciate you coming in! <br><br>Glad the falafel and espresso martini flavor hit, and that you enjoyed the vibe at the bar. Come back and see us again soon!

24 hour diners were once a staple in nyc but now are down to a few. This one is perfectly situated down in the LES close to so many bars and night clubs. My Tuna melt and French onion soup hit the spot! Def on my favorites list for late night eats!

Response from the owner

We love this, thank you! 🙌<br><br>Keeping that classic 24-hour diner energy alive is something we’re really proud of, especially in a neighborhood like the LES.<br><br>Honored to be on your favorites list, see you again soon!

Although open since 2007, Remedy now almost feels like it's from a bygone era, as it's a 24-hour diner that has mostly gone extinct post-COVID. They serve alright American food with generous portion sizes, and I was here for brunch, which is available on Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M., after we couldn't get into the nearby Baking Company. The staff was fine, though a bit pushy about ordering quickly, and the place started off quiet and pretty empty, with the diner soon filling up with a lot of folks who seemed mostly tourists. The brunch menu consists of eight options for $29 plus tax, which includes either coffee or tea, along with either a peach Bellini, a Mimosa, or a Bloody Mary. The price point is alright, though I wish they included an Aperol spritz as another drink option, as it's the same price on the menu.<br><br>I went with the Huevos Rancheros, consisting of a crispy corn tortilla served with black beans, sauteed peppers and onions, fried eggs, cheese, and "our ranchero sauce." The portion size was large, and the food was alright. The corn tortillas had some good crispness, but I found the ranchero sauce a bit bland, and the fried eggs weren't runny enough. The dish was also very watery, though I think this was mostly because of the beans. I usually don't add hot sauce to this dish, but it was almost necessary. For my drinks, I got a coffee, which was the standard good diner type, and the Peach Bellini, which was alright.<br><br>The other person ordered a dish from the Benedict menu, which is served daily from 6:00 a.m. to 4. He went with the $17 BBQ Pulled Pork Eggs Benedict with poached eggs, pulled pork, and Hollandaise. I tried a bit, and it was alright. The pork was decent with a generic BBQ sauce, as expected, the hollandaise was fine, and the eggs, unlike my dish, were properly made. The dish also came with some hash browns, which were fine as well, though they could have used a bit more flavor. He also got a $4.50 Jumbo Cookie at the end and went for a chocolate chip. This was a bit dry/stale, but at least it was large.<br><br>I liked the old-school feel here, and the portion sizes were great, but the food just wasn't that good. The best parts were fine, but most of the rest was bad. I can see going here if you're drunk or something and want something, but not much otherwise. Mid 2 at the most, rounded down for general quality.

Response from the owner

Hi Glenn,<br><br>Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review with us, we truly appreciate it.<br><br>We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the old-school diner feel and our generous portion sizes. Keeping that classic 24-hour diner experience alive is something we care deeply about, especially as it’s become more rare.<br><br>That said, we’re sorry to hear that parts of your meal didn’t meet expectations. Your feedback is incredibly helpful, and we’ll be sure to share it with our kitchen team so we can continue improving both flavor and consistency. <br><br>We also appreciate you noting the service experience, striking the right balance between attentiveness and giving guests time is something we’re always working on.<br><br>We’re grateful you gave us a try, and we hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back for a better experience in the future.<br>

Service was slow even though I was seated immediately. Had to ask for water while waiting for food to arrive. Food was hot when served. I'd go again if I was starving, but not high on my preferred places to dine while home in the city. I really wanted to like this place more than I do.

We were immediately greeted and seated as soon as we walked-in after going to another place down the street that had a 2 to 3 hour wait. The staff were friendly and the food was wholesome. I had the Steady Teddy and did get a chance to take a picture before digging in. My daughter had the chicken sandwich which had the best coleslaw ever. The slaw had a little smokey, heat to the finish that kept me wanting more. Overall, sold, filling meal which was perfect after we walked around the Statue of Liberty. It’s just a short ride on the M15 from Battery Park to 1st Ave and 1st Street. If you happen to be in the area and you’re looking for a filling meal in the city, then you will satisfied. I didn’t get a chance to try the cakes. The German Chocolate cake looked amazing. We enjoyed the black and white milkshake. The Cafe Mocha and Oregon Chai were delicious as well.

A friend and I came in and had such a great meal! The French toast was LEGIT some of the best I have ever had. The grilled cheese deluxe also hit. Excellent service as well.

We had an incredible experience at this diner! Arriving just before 7:00 AM, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a classic American atmosphere. The food exceeded all expectations, the pancakes and French toast were expertly prepared and very well-served. If you're looking for a hearty, authentic breakfast, this place is 100% worth a visit.
