  1. Great place for a late night snack in the UWS (note: $10 minimum for debit and credit cards)! Loved their vegetable pizza loaded with spinach, cauliflower, broccoli, and olives. Crust had a perfect crisp, followed by nicely rolled dough, a hearty layer of marinara sauce, cheese, and toppings. You won't be disappointed.

  2. Great place for late night burger and pizza. The food is good and the staff are great. Delivery or for dining in you always get great service. I always get the burger with waffle fries if I'm working late. Made from scratch and Tastes great.

  3. I wanted to like this place.  I've passed it so many times, questioned it and kept walking.  

    It's loud and small with a lot of people coming and going.  My burger was greasy, thin and not that tasty.  My dining partner ordered his medium and it was served rare.

    The shakes were thin and plain.  

    I don't plan to go back…

  4. Good food, though pasta dishes are a little pricey. I will have to try another one when I come back since I found that garlic and oil pasta is not exactly my cup of tea. Also, there is something about those booths, or maybe it is the kind of dish they serve pasta in, I feel like a midget. Those booths are either very low to the ground and the table is high, or the bowl I was eating out of is deep and taller. Whatever it was, I felt like I had to really be careful to not get food on myself. I think maybe my friend and I will try a table next time. Place got really packed late into the evening, service was okay, though for a refill machine, I was not expecting to get charged again for a refill on my coke, especially since they ran out and the waiter had to refill the machine. I guess I will be careful next time. Waiter did as we asked, but the way he carried himself, he seemed unfriendly and stressed out. He also cursed, "shut the f*ck up" before some loud customers opened the door to come in. Don't know if he knew them, maybe…

  5. A nice cheap burger spot for lunch.  Especially after glancing at the menu at the restaurant down the block and saw a $17 burger.  This is a small hole in the wall burger and pizza joint.  There is nothing fancy about this place.  That's fine with me though.  These hole in the walls have their own charm.  The waitstaff was friendly and the service was super fast.  The burgers came out cooked just right and the fries were nice and crispy.

  6. I found this place on Groupon and decided to give it a shot. I called in my order; medium pizza half cheese and half eggplant parm. My pizza was ready when I got there and all of the staff were very helpful. The eggplant pizza great; lots of eggplant slices and very filling. The cheese was just okay; I've had better. Neither pizza was too greasy and the crust in both was soft and enjoyable. The menu is so extensive so I would definitely come back and try something else again!

  7. I used to work across the street from this place until wee hours in the morning so they were my go to spot after a busy night. It doesn't have great decor, greasy would be the decorating style, and it's kind of a tight fit. But that's because it is usually packed. The only thing I've ever had from here is the GIGANTIC burgers they serve up with lightening speed. Now when I say gigantic I mean I got one for my boss who was a big burly guy, and it took HIM by surprise! No, they aren't healthy in any way. But if you're coming out of the club, getting off late, or just hungry, you want to come here. The food is tasty, great portions and quick.

  8. I have been to this location twice and each time left satisfied and stuffed! They have a large variety of different foods. I recently had their lamb gyro and it was phenomenal for a non-Greek restaurant!
    -I highly recommend this to anyone in the neighborhood!
