Great classic diner experience close to Times Square💚I had the veggie egg white omelette with toast and home fries—very tasty and the coffee hit the spot.

A very welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere where all the staff were very kind and helpful (besides English, they all speak Spanish). In fact, March 4th was my birthday and I received a surprise from the restaurant staff. I had breakfast there during my 8 days in NYC and I recommend it without hesitation!

Response from the owner

Thanks Fernando for taking the time to write us a wonderful review. We are so happy to see you enjoyed dining with us. Happy birthday again and we hope to see you again.

Perfect way to start the day is a decent breakfast. This place did that with quality. Great welcoming with great service. Poached Eggs was spot on and the spicy sausage Benedict was a great choice to have. Recommended

Response from the owner

Thanks Paul for visiting and the kind words. We appreciate all our guests and hope to see you again soon.

I was trying to get brunch somewhere else in the neighborhood, but they were crowded, so I came to the Times Square Diner and they were fine. The Strawberry Nutella Pancakes were really the standout, with the omelettes and home fries both just being fine. I didn’t love the coffee.

Response from the owner

We are so glad you got to dine with us. Thanks for the visit and the kind words. We hope to see you again Matt.

Service was great! My medium well burger was under cooked, chicken sandwich was a frozen chicken patty, the bagel (not pictured) wasn't even a true NY bagel... over toasted and was hard to swallow. Staff was great but the food was a big miss for me.

Response from the owner

Hi Kristi I am so sorry to hear that your visit with us was not up to out standards. I can assure you that we try our best to please all our customers. I can only chalk this up to a bad day and hope you give us another chance in the future. Thanks for stopping by.

The portion sizes are absolutely massive, and the price definitely reflects that. if you’re calling on a budget, this isn’t the place for you. service was great, my server refilled my water every time i was getting low, and constantly came over to see how my food was.<br>both of the sodas i ordered came FLAT. no bubbles. the food was just… eh. very few of the entrees actually came with sides, so if you wanted a sandwich and fries your total would be over 30 dollars. don’t really recommend, find another spot.

Response from the owner

Hi Jasmine thanks for dining with us. We really wish you had informed your server about the flat soda so that we could have remedied it for you. We pride ourselves on customer service and trying to make the best experience for our guests. Looks like we missed the mark with you and for that I personally apologize.

This restaurant has such a diverse menu, and everything I ordered came out absolutely delicious. I ended up going back twice while I was in the area! I had the huevos rancheros, which were prepared perfectly, and the staff was very friendly. All the other dishes I saw coming out of the kitchen looked equally delicious.

Response from the owner

Thanks Jenny for the great review. We appreciate your business and great photos. We hope to see you again.

My wife and I had an incredible breakfast experience at Times Square Diner & Grill. From the moment we walked in, the service was timely and welcoming. Our food came out quickly and was cooked to absolute perfection—honestly, we were blown away by the quality, especially considering how affordable everything was.<br><br>I ordered the walnut cheese-stuffed French toast along with eggs, potatoes, and sausage—every bite was rich, flavorful, and satisfying. My wife went for a bowl of oatmeal topped with seasonal fruit, which was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully presented.<br><br>The drinks were just as impressive—the cappuccino and hot chocolate were both excellent, perfectly balanced and comforting.<br><br>If you’re in the area and want a delicious, reasonably priced meal with great service, this spot is a must. Highly recommended!

Response from the owner
