Employees dont know how to cook. I watched the cook make pancakes. He flipped them 5 times and pressed down with the spatula. Thats how you get thin & rubbery pancakes. Youre supposed leave them cook until the surface is dry and there are bubbles around the edges, then you flip the pancakes only once. Never pat the pancake with the spatula because that pops all the air bubbles and makes the pancake flat & rubbery. They should be light & airy. This is basic knowledge. Also dont tell the customer no when you have a simple request on a slow day. I ordered 2 scrambled eggs with feta & onions. I was told, "ok", but the cook made plain scrambled eggs and packed it up. I said that was wrong. I explained that I ordered with feta & onions and was told ok. He just dumped feta & raw onions on top of the eggs and I said no. I wanted them cooked inside. He said that is an omelette. I said an omelette is 3 eggs with milk. He refused to make 2 eggs the way that I ordered even though initially he said okay! He had all the ingredients and I didnt care how much I was charged. He still said no. Really? I walked out without any breakfast. Who says no to a customer? It was slow and easy order. They just never made it that way before so they said no. They lost my business and I will tell everyone I know what happened there. They will lose even more business. Dumb move. I would have paid anything.

찬음식, 따뜻한 음식 다양한 음식들을 도시락에 담아서 먹을수 있는곳. 2층에 여러테이블이 있어서 편하게 먹을수 있다. 점심시간땐 주변에 근무하는 사람들이 많이 찾는다. 그래서 그 시간대에 새로 만든 음식이 많이 나오는듯... 소스가 강해 맛은 나쁘지 않다. 아시아인들도 느끼하지 않을듯... 물론 흰밥도 있다. 계산은 1lb(0.4536kg)당 $8.95정도 한것 같다. 흰프라스틱 도시락통에 반정도 이것저것 담아계산하니 $12.95 나왔다. 무난한 가격. 다양한 음식을 고루고루 먹을수 있어 개인적으론 나쁘지 않았다. 24시간 오픈 운영하는것 같은데, 음식회전이 많을 점심시간이나 저녁시간이 아니라면 음식 퀘리티가 떨어질수도 있으니 새로 만든 음식들이 나오는 점심시간에 가는것 추천한다.

If I could give this place a negative star I would! Today was my first and last time at this cafe. My sister and I are traveling from out of town and we stopped by cafe 28 for a bite to eat. The employees were sooooooooooooooooo rude!!! There were two ladies standing behind the counter. My sister asked one of them can we seat ourselves and she completely ignored her. So we stood there looking lost and I decided to ask where should we place our order. To my surprise the lady walked away from me and as she walked by pointed to the other side of the restaurant!! Im glad to see others have had a pleasant experience here and Im sure they have great food. However, its not always about the food but the quality of the service. At the end of the day it cost NOTHING to be kind to people.

I come here all the time to get a salad and today Im giving them a 1 star not for the food because thats amazing but for the service...the guy at theres a little Asian guy who serves the food and also does the deliveries who was rude. I was creating a salad and asked him to hop it and he did it half way and when I asked him to chop it more he said "I already chopped it, theres more people waiting" (which there was only one lady and she just got there at the same time I did) with an attitude. Im paying for the salad not getting it for freee so I should get it how I want it. Point blank. Highly annoyed because service is everything. Thats how you keep your business running. Be humble!

Not a coffee shop as the name suggest, is a typical dinner/pharmacy/corner store. They have prepared food that is sold per weight, plus a sandwich/pizza counter where you can get something prorated to your taste. I did like it when visiting New York as the price is right and they are open weekends. You may get more privacy at the tables on the second floor. There are long cues on the single (? Im not sure there is only one, I didnt ask just went to the one in the second floor). Probably because oft the same bathrooms are not clean and smell as a train station bathroom. Service is efficient to the point of rudeness, but I went there for food, not for a long lasting friendship.

Un choix incroyable ! Lambiance est très sympa et le personnel souriant. Le buffet est juste incroyablement délicieux et leur sushis sont fameux. Le cafe 28 à été mon rendez vous quotidien pour prendre du plaisir, déguster de bonne choses a vec ma famille tout en sextasiant sur notre journée dans cette ville magique. «Je reviendrais.»

My experience was not good. I ordered a prosciutto di Parma sandwich and they used domestic,basically ham and put pesto sauce all over the bread to try to disguise it. Everything in the refrigerator was warm.when I asked for a cup of ice she told me it was another $1.50 after touching my warm beverage... the whole experience sucked. I should have left at the register when asked to pay for ice... my loss is your gain. DO NOT EAT HERE UNLESS YOURE CRAVING TERRIBLE FOOD, FALSE ADVERTISING AND TERRIBLE SERVICE... other than that everything else was great... A wonderful establishment for those who know nothing about food or service. ENJOY!!!

If it wasnt for their credit AND debit card minimums, I might stop here slightly more often. In addition to your typical self-serve purchase-by-weight buffet (vegetarian and non-veg options), theyve got a counter where you can get soups and have sandwiches made for you. If youre looking for snacks, they have an assortment of cookies and chips and beverages to keep your stomach from grumbling. My friends swear by their udon noodles (for a reasonably-priced, reasonably-tasty lunch option), but I havent indulged yet.

A great place to get take away or eat in with a large selection of hot and cold foods and various counters with a wide range of food options. There is a salad and fruit, hot buffet selection and sandwiches made to order. The food is of a high standard and reasonably priced. It is great of you want take away but have a healthier option. There are seats inside where you can enjoy the food and watch the world go by too. A great option no matter what time of day or night.

Świetna alternatywa dla będących w NYC. Bar sałatkowy czynny od rana, dodatkowo świetne śniadania. Dania obiadowe - rewelacja. Ceny naprawdę OK, jak na NYC. Znam ten lokal z polecenia i sam dalej polecam.

처음찾은 뉴욕, 메디슨스퀘어 가든을 지나 엠파이어 빌딩으로 가는 길에 너무 빨리 나와서 먹지못한 쉐이크쉑버거를 뒤로하고 찾은 곳, 다양한 브런치 메뉴들과 음료들 그리고 편안한 테이블들이 있어서 좋았어요. 한국 점원이 있어서 더욱 반가웠던곳

Ufak bir cafe. Meyva, kahvaltılık gibi ürünler de bulunuyor. Bir 25 Aralık gecesi burada boğazlarım ağrırken içtiğim sıcak çikolata eşliğinde dinlediğim "Feliz Navidad" şarkısını unutmam mümkün değil.

I spent a mere $5.82 to grab a hot snack in the evening at this deli before heading to an event. The selection at the hot bar was pretty routine. The food however was very very salty and dry. It was probably sitting there all day or sitting in the kitchen all day, did not make for very chewable snacking. Other than the salt, the taste of the foods was not bad. Im guessing this might be a better fit for lunch when the food is prepared fresh.

No matter what kind of food you like, youll find it here. Entres, pastry, soups, salads, fruits - loads of everything. Id say thats a perfect spot for breakfast and lunch. Its not that cheap, since you pay for weight and always want to take more than you eat. What was a real revelation to me - this place had proper english PG Tips black tea!
