  1. Do you want a solid brunch that doesn't cost you a goddamn arm and leg for what essentially boils down to food items that cost about $4 to buy and less than a half hour to prepare on your own?
    Well Sullivan's Bistro has got you covered.

    Full of old school New York diner character, Sullivan's Bistro is a refreshing drink of water in a sea of bloated expensive trendy drivel. A reasonably priced brunch with satisfying and straight forward food, a $5 mimosa/bellini/bloody mary special and no wait to be seated. That's really it, simple, nice, tasty. What more do I need to say? Free Hersey's kisses at the front desk? Well, they got that too.

    Who knew this sort of place could still exist in West Village… I'm glad it does though.

  2. This staple of SoHo has been around since I've lived in SoHo. It offers a quaint diner service food that a notch above your typical diner. The small restaurant  is comfortable but not too claustrophobic. The service is friendly neighborhood which locals in the area come for brunch/lunch/dinner.

    The Bloody Mary was pretty good with a touch of spiciness but lacking a celery.  The friends omelets looked good. My scramble eggs was fluffy with a side of potatoes and greens. The meal was good but portions were a bit meager. I guess this is where the 'upscale' comes into play.

    We enjoyed our meal and relaxed.

  3. I really like this brunch spot, as I have had 2 experiences without the drama of waiting for a table. The location is also not too shabby, supposedly located across the street from where Anna Wintour lives. There is somewhat of a French ambiance though the menu is as American as it gets.

    I ordered burgers both times, really juicy and served with guacamole plus fries. I believe most people come here for the pancakes. So, I will tell you that portion size is large.

    Best part? The complimentary 'bread' basket that is a serving of freshly baked corn muffins in caramel sauce. On word…yum!

    If you are wondering, price point is around $12-16 for brunch. Left with leftovers.

  4. i like it here.   i'm not very picky.  i enjoy a simple breakfast and that's just what i got here.  the place is a little small but cozy.  i had the veggie breakfast platter $16.50.  the platters are a pretty good deal.  the portion sizes are good.  coffee isn't watered down either.  the staff is also very friendly and seem very sweet.  i would definitely come back

  5. I came here with my aunt who was in from out of town. We were eating dinner at around 4:30pm (I know, I know), so the restaurant was completely deserted, but they were nice enough to seat us. Service was great and I had the ribs, which were delicious. Prices were reasonable enough.

  6. Tasty traditional brunch without the wait or drama.

    Jane had over an hour wait, and my friend and I were absolutely starving. A quick Yelp revealed Sullivan's just a block away. We were seated almost immediately and brought waters and menus. We both got the classic pancake breakfast, one with chocolate chips and the other with blueberry and bananas.

    They bring all tables a small serving of corn muffin drizzled in caramel sauce, which was a great compliment to my coffee (which came with hot, steamed milk versus cold cream!). Our entrees came out shortly after and I was surprised by the amount of food. It had two nicely sized (and fluffy) pancakes, multiple strips of bacons, not over seasoned home fries, over easy eggs, and an orange garnish. The pancakes were actually extremely fluffy, and easy to cut through with just a fork. The bacon was a little overcooked and the eggs undercooked but nothing major. For only $14, I was more than full on decent breakfast food.

    They take card, offer $5 drinks, and have no wait. What else can you ask for from a Saturday brunch spot?

  7. Came here randomly on a food adventure.  It was a nice surprise!  The service was friendly and the decor was french cafe-y.

    The food was good too.  We had French toast (good), Corned beef hash (really good), Sausage (good), blueberry pancakes (really good!).

    Yeah it was really good – and not crowded at all around 10 or so.  But then it filled up.

  8. Love this cozy restaurant, the owner is always very courteous and the food is delicious.
