    The atmosphere is good, tight space but cozy. Service is good. It's always busy here, so you will have to wait a little, be seated, get your order, or get your bill, but you know they are trying. No complaints. The food in general is good, especially the sandwiches. The sandwich bread is on the thick side, and the only dissatisfaction from us was the cold fries.

    I’ve been to here and Chelsea location and it was all good. employees are always chill and friendly and food is great! I loved their atmosphere. But it’s always packed so if you want certain time and seats maybe making a reservation will be helpful. It’s a great place to spend time with people!

    Probably one of the best breakfast places i have ever been to. Food was incredible! Friendly staff and great service. Love the decor and atmosphere.

    Great food, ambience, and service! I had the chicken and waffles (make sure to ask them not to drown the waffles), and my fiancée had the short rib hash - both were fantastic.

    Ordered breakfast for pick up for a work event, everyone was underwhelmed by their selections. I personally got the egg & cheese croissant, which had no seasoning, and the hot chocolate, which came half filled (despite being well-packaged to avoid spillage)

    Great drinks!! I had a spiked palmer which was awesome. We also got the Beet fries (these were DELICIOUS), Nachos, french fries, and avocado hummus with chips. All were pretty good!! Their outdoor dining space was really nice too.

    Impossible burger pictured below. It's such a great deal. Rarely can you find a double patty impossible burger with fries for less than 20 bucks. The fries are delicious. Drink pictured is the berry mocktail. This location is a bit loud at brunch (loud music) but we sat in the back so it wasn't as bad. It's a great place to go with friends because there is something for everyone, and breakfast all day is awesome. I'm always looking for a place with good vegan options and I've now tried the breakfast burrito and burger, both are delicious. Make a reservation so you can be sure to get a table at brunch. It's very popular.

    Such a delightful place! Expansive menu with plenty of food and beverage options. The peach fizz mocktail was fantastic as were the hash browns. The staff & management couldn’t have been nicer. Can’t wait to come for brunch again soon!

    Food is yummy Portions are fair for the price Excellent service Can’t wait to have breakfast there again They had this amazing almond milk chai with rose petal OMG

    Food orders were huge; we could have easily split an order between two; because of this, my mom didn't enjoy her sandwich that much- she felt she could barely eat it. My sandwich was delicious, not to say the potatoes it came with! The service was great, and honestly, considering you are in NY, here, you pay for what you get! I totally recommend for a classic American-style breakfast in NY.

    Came to this spot for a last minute brunch. The menu is varied and very accommodating. And I was pleasantly surprised to find *multiple* vegan dishes available. I ordered the Buffalo Chik’in Sandwich and it was delicious! This spot was busy, but the staff was great at checking on us. Would definitely stop by again :)

    If you like good food, bring your appetite, they serve way too much food. I struggled to finish half my plate. Even the bread was over the top.

    At the Servers recommendation I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. The chicken was over cooked but loved the fries. There's outdoor dining available.

    Take pride in the food you sell. Come on… This how all of my tacos were presented to me.

    I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. Inside seemed busy, but not crowded. I opted for the outdoor seating (because covid) which was spacious, comfortable and a good people watching space in summer. I waited a bit longer than I would like for service, but perhaps a shift change was responsible. When I did get service, the waiter was polite, and after a shift change, the next waiter was friendly. I opted for the hamburger w/ lettuce, tomato, pickle, add cheese, my friend got the veggie burger as is--both with fries. My burger came with two juicy patties and looked great, the veggie came loaded with sprouts (maybe too much) and other toppings. The burger was just okay, while the texture and arrangement was excellent, the flavor was a little bland... And that's unfortunate because it looked so juicy and tasty. My friend said the veggie burger was good, but didn't seem to eat much of it (as you would expect if it was delicious). The fries were excellent. Each burger was about $14. Cocktails were about $12, and iced coffee~$8. The crowd disappated quite a bit around 4pm(Sunday), so if you wanted to avoid a crowd in the afternoon, that seems to be the time. Overall it was decent, but the good thing is, if for some reason you last minute decide you don't want this, there are several restaurants very close.

    I adored this restaurant's food and service. The vegan breakfast burrito I had was excellent, and my server Gilbert was really pleasant. I requested a strawberry lemonade from the bartender, whose name I believe to be Alex, and he made it for me. Y’all should try it 10/10

    Unfortunately my previously pro-grey dog persona has took a turn. We had a reservation for a party of 7 at 8, and we were automatically seated as a party of five in the back while waiting for a table and the other two seats to arrive. We were told that in a few minutes we would be able to get a table for the party, which turned into twenty to thirty minutes. After that, we had to wait for the party of three sweet girls next to us to manage the situation and pay for their bill to give us the table next to us (new flash: we had a reservation, they shouldn’t have had to). Our waiter tried to make the experience better, but little could be done after waiting for a table, and especially because the service continued to go downhill. From messing up several orders (such as forgetting cheese on a burger and when trying to fix this, ended up giving us cheese on toast instead of cheese on the burger) in addition to cleaning up for the night while we were still eating. There were many moments which made me regret choosing grey dog. The food is great, but this experience was not worth it- especially for the price of the food (non-comped) and automatic large party gratuity.
