    Love this place for abundant gluten free options. Thick cut bacon is tasty. Sad that this location does NOT have lemon ricotta pancakes, only blue berry or chocolate. Fast, efficient, and friendly service.

    Cool experience, good food. But the food came so fast it felt like we were being rushed out of the restaurant. Our server was fantastic.

    We went before and enjoyed it but I guess the novelty wore off. It’s fun once but not a great dining experience .

    Great breakfast place that wasn’t too crowded and service was amazing. Wasn’t too pricey either (for NYC at least).

    Stayed at the Edison and received discount breakfast vouchers as part of our package. Food was good, service good, and atmosphere was good. We’ll come back.

    I have a child with Celiac Disease so finding restaurants that are knowledgeable about safe food handling practices and offer a variety of meal options is so important. I'd heard many good things about Friedmans so was excited to try this restaurant during our city excursion. We made a reservation to be safe, but imagine we'd have been seated quickly even without as it was breakfast and not later in the day. All the staff were pleasant and helpful. Our server was attentive and food was delivered quickly. It was breakfast so I'll say the food was just fine - we didn't order anything fancy. The prices were a little high, but it's Times Square and these days all restaurants are pricey. The location is nice - although I miss the pink walls of the old Edison Diner, I love that there were still some of the old details in place that you could enjoy some of that history.
