    We arrived 10 minutes early for our Thanksgiving reservation yet, were given a table immediately despite the crowd. The server, "Daniel" was excellent as was the service. Food came out quickly and correctly. Nice portion sizes at reasonable prices ( for midtown Manhattan). We highly recommend this restaurant!

    The waitress was awful she didn’t even speak good English. The burgers were so greasy. There was no cheese on the fries. I just wouldn’t ever go back super unimpressed. Bathrooms were filthy

    Two words of advice don’t GO. The food is marginal & arrived room temperature. If you do not like well cooked fried food this is not for you. The atmosphere is noisy & chaotic I had a reservation & arrived 15 minutes early coming from Radio city. I had to wait on a line for 10 minutes mixed with people who did not have a reservation. The hostess told me i could not check in until 1. She seemed to be more concerned with giving beepers to the people who did not have reservations. There are much better places in the area.

    The food and atmosphere was great. They need more TVs for the sports, if going to be a “sports bar”. Our server was new or just. It good. Very friendly, but SLOW! Overall I’d go back again. Good was good and prices very reasonable.

    I’ve been in the city a bunch of times and passed this restaurant many times without trying - had a family day in the city and kids love burgers and shakes - so thought i would give it a try and happy that I did. The burgers were really good, the shakes really good. The service was great - thank you Stefanie. My only suggestions is that you show go in very hungry and not over order as everything comes out oversized . The pretzel barely fits on the table (just kidding) but it’s huge . Lots of food and wish I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch . Next time (and there will be one) I know.

    We had a party of nine and our server was excellent. The restaurant was very quick. It’s VERY crowded and loud. There’s hardly any room to navigate between tables.
