NYC restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of 59th Street Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

It has been many, and I do mean many years since I dined here, so since I was in the neighborhood, I stopped in for a quick bite to eat. I don't remember much about this place from my last visit, other than that it served good food, but after my recent visit I could clearly see that it didn't change. I really liked the atmosphere and service of this restaurant. My server was friendly and attentive, and my food came out pretty quickly in spite of the place being super busy during the breakfast rush. They have a very inexpensive menu with great items, which includes alcoholic drinks. The restaurant itself looks small, but it is very spacious inside and kept very clean. I was pleased with my latest overdue visit, and I will definitely stop by again in the future the next time I am in the area.

Walked in and was greeted by a friendly old man who told us we could sit anywhere. My sister and I ordered the pancake deluxe and waffle deluxe and found both dishes extremely filling! The portions were quite generous and the pancake deluxe had 3 massive fluffy pancakes that were very buttery and soft! Each plate came with several pieces of meat — 2 bacon strips, 1 sausage, 1 ham tucked beneath everything. I found the bacon strips and sausage very salty and could’ve been toned down a bit. As for the waffle deluxe, I was hoping there would’ve been more fresh strawberries that could’ve been added to the massive waffle given that it’s almost a $3 add on. I wish there were options for additional sauces such as whipped cream. Loved the simplicity of this meal and definitely enjoyed this experience as a newcomer around this neighbourhood.

Affordable and delicious diner with a large menu and great portions. Maybe a 4.5/5 in quality but 5/5 in quantity and value for money. Ordered the honey fried chicken but did not taste the honey at all. Guacamole was great. Home fries had a satisfying crust and a soft texture. Honestly my meal for $32.50 could have fed two people. Would go again. Service was a bit unorganized, but I went for Sunday brunch so it’s understandable.

Best diner in Sunset Park! The coffee is very good and the breakfast is delicious. The staff and ambiance are nice and the service is great. I keep coming back.

You definitely have a good time alone or with family. The staff are friendly, the owner is very nice. I ordered Home fries, and they didn't come a lot for me. I can eat, I asked and they gave me more. So I think they listen to you.

I stopped by for breakfast on a Saturday around 10am. I was honestly very disappointed that I got a bagel with watered down cream cheese I ordered an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and the cream cheese was SUPER watered down, it was melting out of the bagel with every bite. I’ve honestly never experienced such watered down cream cheese before… clearly they’re cutting corners on the cream cheese… the bagel was thin and tasted stale… The service was quick and friendly but not friendly enough to make up for such a sad excuse of a cream cheese bagel…

I almost came to this place every day for breakfast! The bagels were amazing. We used to get eggs and cheese bagels and they were awesome also the pancakes. The cappuccino had a nice blend of coffee. The guys working there were very friendly and welcoming. I do highly recommend this place if you are up for a decent bite with a reasonable prices.

One of the best spots for a quick bite in this neighborhood. They have a huge menu with all kinds of deli classics as well as fresh bagels and smoothies on deck. Prices are always good, and the food is better.

Hidden local gem. Authentic cuisine, sit down with no reservations. Good hot food, decent portions, friendly service, strong drinks. Prices are very fair and i hear they have live Mariachi entertainment on the weekends. Definitely a win, win.

Just by fluke, we found this place walking 5 Avenue yesterday in Brooklyn. I have to say, what a stroll along 5 Avenue it was. From the various clothing stores and walk up restaurants to the locals on the sidewalk selling various homemade goodies to eat. And then out of nowhere, we found this sit down resturant right on 5 Avenue. It was around 6:30pm and maybe 6-7 tables had customers. Then by 7:30pm this place was jammed packed. The food, the service - all of it was over the top. A work colleague and myself shared a dish, there was enough for 4 people (seriously). Everything was delicious. Great job all, personally I came from Vancouver, BC Canada. And have to say, that was hands down the best Mexican Dish I had ever, ever had. Well done !

Consistently delicious authentic Mexican food with a very friendly and accommodating wait staff. The inside is fairly large for a Brooklyn restaurant which I really like because there's always plenty of space between you and other diners. I go here a couple of times a month and I never get tired of the food, highly recommended.

I recently visited Irish Haven to meet my boyfriend for a night of pool and drinks. Before going, I had read some negative one-star reviews accusing the bar of racism and wanted to see for myself what the atmosphere was truly like. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly welcomed by both the bartenders and the regulars. My British boyfriend joined me shortly after, and we spent the evening enjoying great music from the jukebox, playing pool, and sharing drinks. The experience far exceeded our expectations, and Irish Haven has quickly become our favorite bar in Sunset Park. Don’t let the negative reviews mislead you—Irish Haven is a gem.

Dropped into the Irish haven on Monday 18th march,,, I felt right at home straight away, bar staff are really friendly and they can pull you a decent pint of cream... Got talking to the owner's, lovely lads, chatted to them for awhile, and had a good few pints, it made my day to meet some great people... Here for a full week and I intend to go back for a few pints...so if you're ever in Brooklyn, give this place a look in. James, Ballyfermot, Dublin 👍

This used to be my favorite comfort-food restaurant, and for the last couple of weeks they have been messy. It started as bad and now we are at worst. I feel like the food is overcooked, and I really don’t like to eat too crispy fries and/or chicken. Additionally, I think they are literally counting the fries because they used to fill the containers, but now, not so much. And today it was last straw for me and my family because I found a hair in my fries. I realized that they don’t use hair nets or anything like that. To top it off, I saw a lady that helps there brush her nose then going back to tending the food. Why? I don’t know if they changed management, but I don’t think I can go back there. I understand that accidents happen, but there has to be a standard for cleanliness when it comes to restaurants. Also, when I called I ordered the first three items and they couldn’t even let me finish ordering? Why? Anyways, I think I would like the old people back please. I tried to be as constructive and objective as possible in this review.

The food was great im surprised this place doesn't have better reviews. Maybe they stepped their game up recently. All of the food had a lot of flavor. I mean real flavor not just msg. The dumplings were the best Ive had in the area for sure. The outside of them was caramelized but not burnt or dry, and there was green onion inside the dumpling, just a lot of flavor. 5 wantons in the soup (usually places give 3) and the broth was a dark color full of flavor. was not reminiscent of salty pee like most places. The chicken was as good as anywhere else Ive gotten it. definitely was not worse. I was surprised everything was so much better because it was actually a little cheaper than the other 2 places I frequent. This is my new go-to place if they can keep doing what they are doing.

Johnny's has all the makings of greatness: old-school digs, counter serve, locals of all stripes. And the pizza is excellent. Soft fresh dough, quality moz, bright sauce. Not sure Italians run it anymore, but who cares. Top 10 Brooklyn slice joints?
R Kimmich - 7 years ago

If you find yourself in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, pop into Johnny's Pizza for the real deal. The owner, Johnny, took my son's multiple allergies (pn, tn, egg, fish, sesame, poppy, pumpkin, sunflower seeds) very seriously; in fact, Johnny's daughter has allergies, so he understood! Johnny's is very much an old-school, authentic pizza joint-nothing fancy- just really delicious Brooklyn pizza! Perfection!! Pictured is their square pie.

This is a classic pizzeria that has withstood the test of time. Est. 1968 the pizza is delicious the variety is enough to keep traditionalists like myself happy with extra cheese and pepperoni and sausage or the grandma slice and for the more adventurous types they will be pleased by the Hawaiian style. They also have appetizers like beef patties, garlic knots and they make delicious heros and pasta dishes. Take a trip to this great place and Manga!! Enjoy!!!

Acai bowl was amazing, fresh fruits perfectly blended and great portion at a great price point. Everything else looks delicious but the Brazil Acai Bowl is really tasty/refreshing. Glad to have a health conscious place around the neighborhood. Also the workers was pleasant and extremely helpful and polite. Mateo was really knowledgable and very kind. 10/10. Will return very soon!
