They have a huge menu featuring breakfast, lunch and dinner items, along with Mexican and Greek selections.
The choices for breakfast are many, including eggs, Belgian waffles, omelets, biscuits, gravy, pancakes and sandwiches. I will say that our server wasn’t very knowledgeable regarding the menu. I ordered two eggs with sausage ($5.45) and asked the server what came with it and she just looked at me. I said, “Do grits or potatoes or maybe toast come with it” and she said “no, but you can buy a side”. So I said I would just take it the way it is served, even though I was thinking $5.45 was a bit high for two eggs with sausage and nothing else.
When my plate arrived, there was a huge mound of fresh home-style potatoes. When the server came back I mentioned that this is what I was asking so she tells me, “another lady ordered the same thing and she didn’t get anything with hers”. Who knows, maybe she didn’t want anything. Actually I have now found that their breakfasts come with a choice of potatoes or grits, toast and a choice of coffee or a small juice. I wasn’t given the drink option either.
My eggs were a perfect sunny side up (I’ve given up on soft scrambled in a restaurant) and the potatoes were quite good, some a bit crisp, and some soft and tender, a perfect combination.
While we were waiting, someone brought us a plate of fresh, homemade bread with butter. When our breakfast was served, the toast was made from the homemade bread, which was delicious.
Wayne order the New York Omelet ($7.45) made with sausage, bacon, ham, onions, peppers, and Monterey Jack cheese, and served with the home-style potatoes.
The New York Diner has a multitude of salads, soups. All sandwiches are served with your choice of potato salad, fries, home fries, Texas fries or rice and black beans, with the soup of the day.
With so many choices, and the fact that they have a good breakfast, I hope this place succeeds since the last few places haven’t lasted very long. We need a few good breakfast places! We look forward to trying out their wings.
A Kids menu is offered for $3.95 featuring more than the standard chicken nuggets (roast beef or turkey dinner, fried filet of flounder, spaghetti and several others).
I’m pretty sure we will go back for another visit.
New York Diner is open Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. until 9 p.m. and Sunday from 6 a.m. until 5 p.m.
