Food was okay, very overpriced even for NYC. Atmosphere and air conditioning were poor. Bathrooms, stairs to bathroom, and floors outside the bathroom were deplorable. more

We went here because the hotel had a TV channel featuring things to do in NYC, and eating at a great deli was shown, so my boyfriend, the great sandwhich lover, couldn't wait. Yes, the sandwiches were piled high with meat, but the bread couldn't be cheaper! He had the Lindy's triple decker or something like that for $22, and... more

Just okay food, nothing special. If you like $4.59 soda's and $17.50 sandwiches, this is the place for you! I'd venture to say that almost any other "Deli" in NYC offers similar, probably better food at more reasonable prices. Their claim to fame is their Cheescake... yes, very good -- but few places in NY offer cheescake that isn't great... more

Way over priced food, extremely rude service people. I was told how much my tip would be. Eggs and ham for three, 80.00. Plan to go back in Nov. 08. They will not steal from me again. West Texans are easy to fool once. more

Total tourist trap...and bad service to boot. Why would you choose to eat here in light of everything else in NYC? more

I looked for this restaurant in TA just to ensure no one else has the same terrible experience we had. I read about this place on a traveler book which recommended it for its chessecake. My husband and I were passing by and decided to have lunch there. I should say that it was the biggest regret of our trip!... more
