“Dinner is amazing, don't miss out on trying their superb mac and cheese, their super yummy, creamy, thick milkshakes, and the gently fried, not too greasy huge onion rings!” View Less

Citysearch Editorial Review. Like nearby Diner, this chromed-out hangout is a old-school diner revised for the hipster crowd. Inside, big, comfy booths are lit in sultry red, and there's nice long counter and a full bar. The food isn't on par with its aforementioned and better known competition around the corner, but it does have smash hits in its burger and mac & cheese, and the short, market-driven menu is reasonably priced.

we give up on this one. the charm of the old diner car is looking a little ratty these days, the food was way too greasy to be edible and the service.. well, leah, our waitress was aggressively hostile when we were one of four couples in the entire joint.

One of my favorites. We've been coming to Relish for about 13 years and have never been disappointed. The menu is on the small side, but the preparations are always perfect! In the warmer weather, the outdoor garden is perfect for a relaxing dinner. But maybe I shouldn't be saying all these good things about it. I don't want to have to wait to be seated the next time I go there for dinner.

Bad service, mediocre menu. Going to this place is just settling. The menu is tiny and mediocre. By the time I picked something off the menu that moderately interested me, my waiter never showed up. He just never took my order, brought me water, acknowledged my existence. I sat there for fifteen minutes, got up, and left. Maybe if they hired someone who wasn't 11 years old to work there, the service wouldn't be so awful.

My favorite place!. I had to write a review because I was really surprised by what I read from other users. I love this place and come all the time and always have great friendly service. I love their burgers and the specialty drinks are on par with any upscale bar in NYC.
