I have been to this restaurant about four times, and love it each time more. The wait time is unbelieveably long, so I stick to going on weekday mornings - on the weekends the wait time can be upwards of an hour. The restaurant is super small so it is a litlle cramped, but the food is so worth it. The coffee is really good and the biscuits are so fresh, they just fall apart. I usually have a brea...
Read More On Citysearch Flushingsfinest08 10/12/2009 - give the owners a break! great food means trouble!I have been reading all your reviews and can sympathize with all you say. Great food means wait time. All the hype means high expectations. Doesn't mean they cannot fullfill them but in a small place it does require several people working their butts off with no time off. You cannot duplicate the owners - they work hard but cannot always be there. We expect everyone to do the same job and cook...

Read More On Citysearch by ClaraPark at Menuism 3/26/2009 - Weekday DinnerSure, Brunch is alll Hype at Clinton St. But my buddies and I like it for dinner after work- Beer and Burger Special is a great choice. Reviewer said bad looking hosts, but we sit at the bar because of some especially cute and friendly bartenders.
Read More On Citysearch joshprosen 3/21/2009 - Improve service, please!!!We've been customers from the neighborhood for more than 7 years and I have to say we now think twice before walking down to Clinton Street Baking Company. For example, today we went to Le Gamin on 5th Street which was really good.
WHY:
The hostess on Sundays is rude and has a really short fuse with customers. Yes the place is mobbed on Sundays but that's no reason not to use words like 'ple...

Hi My boyfriend ordered the stuffed whole chicken, and the stuffing was clearly bad... let's just say we weren't well for about 5 days. Another friend who is trained as a chef ordered chicken on a different occasion, and when she bit into it it was bloody. BEWARE!!!
I was sad to find out this because until that day, it was a very pleasant place to go. I think I will have to avoid it from ...
Read More On Citysearch lauragleecontact 2/2/2009 - OVERRATED....is an understatement!
Ok, the "good reviews" are obviously from people who have never been to IHOP. My friend and I had the Blueberry Pancakes, the Banana Pancakes, Buttermilk biscuits, bacon and egg. I'm not sayin' the food was horrible, but definitely not worth a 2-hr wait and a $60 bill!.....I believe 85% of the patrons waiting in the cold for two hours, are there for no other reason than obtainng the braggings rig...

Anyway, so as expected my friend and I waited for an hour and a half before we were seated (We went on Saturday morning by the way). Anyway, ordered the buttermilk biscuit sandwich with eggs,bacon and hash browns as well as the banana walnut pancakes..my frien...

Read More On Citysearch sethgg 11/20/2008 - Best Fried ChickenYes, their brunches are amazing and the wait is epic but I like to go there for dinner. The fried chicken is juicy, never dry! The fried green tomatoes are cooked in a delicate cornmeal and are a wonderful complement. Steer away from the crab cakes, small and didn't taste fresh.
The baked items are always good so save room for dessert, all are amazing. Usually a biscuit with a side of jam is all...
Read More On Citysearch rosebud158 11/3/2008 - Would not recommendI discovered this place because of city guide. However after having brunch there this past Sunday I would say that this place is definitely overrated. We ordered a Spanish omelet and a Vanilla waffle that was topped with pecans and pears. We would recommend the Waffle but not the Spanish omelet. Most around us were ordering the Pancakes. Quite honestly, for the reviews and ratings on this s...

I went here and was told there was going to be an hour and a half wait but i ended up waiting only about 45 minutes.

I didn't realize they don't seat until 10am. I watched the line form and a hostess came out to take everyone on the line's name. When they call you in for your table at 10, all the water and silverware are at your seat. I found the service excellent and very friendly, as was the hostess. No one tried to rush m...

I ordered the special, Truffle Fried Egg, what a disappointment! Oily! Not seasoned! And something I could have made better at home!

NOT WORTH WAITING AN HOUR AND A HALF FOR COLD EGGS.....This place must have gone down hill from when other recomended it. We got there at 10:30 and were finally seated at 12:00 after speaking to the rude red head hostess that sat three sets of people in front of our party of two. Once we were seated and ordered the food arrived it and it was cold I mean really cold. Not worth the hype! Don'...
Read More On Citysearch emanyc 4/20/2008 - PerfectThis place is perfect. Go early to avoid line up.. It opens at 10 during wkend, we'd go at or before 930 to make sure we can be seated right at 10. I really dont want to tell anyone, but their dinner is even a better deal. Go early on a weekday to avoid lineups.
Read More On Citysearch DumpyBumpy 4/18/2008 - smallest place on earthRead all the reviews here and was excited about having brunch last Sunday. Sadly, I hadn't read that it is one of the SMALLEST places becasue if I had, I wouldn't have waisted my time. Be aware that the establishment is TINY...and unless you've already eaten and aren't starving then this might be the place for you to go....otherwise pick one of the other thousands of restaurants in NYC.

However, I'm sure all members of my crew will concur IT'S WORTH THE WAIT! You just need to be creative. We waited 2 hrs, but during those hours we made the most of it...we went to a cute place down the street and had ...

The service is barely average, the hostess was not nice ( excuse my language but she was just awful, miserable and not pleasant). As a hostess, you the first impression people have about the restaurant, you sh...

The avocado salad consisted of 3 ingredients: greens (like you get from a bagged salad), a few thin slices of red onion, and avocado slices. No flavor, unimpressive, nothing luxurious about it!
You should definitely try this place; jus...

The food, Crab Cakes, Coleslaw and Sweet Potato fries was the absolute worst. The crab cakes and fries were burnt. The coleslaw wasn't great but it was the main attraction. The biscuts served were extremely hard, almost like a pretzel with very little taste. The waiter was inattentive, ...

What a delightful treat!! The food was divine, and the place ever so quaint. The service was a little slow, but all in all, worth the wait. Best Huevos Rancheros I've ever had....

The pancakes didn't taste like a "mix" but like a light cake, served with a mixture of melted butter and syrup. The fried green tomatoes were the best! Crispy on the outside and melted in your mouth. And the bisquits and ham tasted better than any other bisquits and ham I've had. My boyfriend and I were in heaven and thought that it was worth the 3000 mile trip just ...
Read More On Citysearch straesser 8/20/2007 - Amazing brunch if you can stand the 2 hour waitMy friends and I went to this place on a Sunday around 12, which I knew from its reputation alone would mean epic wait times. Well we waited for 2 hours just as promised but it seems that the table seating is less than democratic. We watched again and again as the hostess turned away people because they "couldn't seat any groups of 4" and then 5 minutes later a group of 4 attractive girls walk ...

My friend and I waited an hour and I have to say that this place is worth the wait. The food is delicious. The fresh menu is orginial and creative. Everything, from the orange juice to the jam, is homemade and extremely wholesome. I had the Spanish Scamble and it was just amazing. Go for brunch or breakfast!!

Consistently good. Hint: Go on a weekday and avoid the 1+ hr wait on weekends... lunch and dinner is largely unrated...and also terrific. This place is open 7 days a week! Just GO already.

The tall red-head was curt and uncaring. One customer cut us in line and instead of mediating the situation, she told us to "battle it out ourselves". We decided not to make a stink and put ourselves back on the waiting list. While waiting for our table, we tried to order two...

If you go for dinner, try the appetizers but don't over order since the portions are often quite generous.
For takeout I recommend the berry scones and biscuits (rich but worth it).

Service was fine, and although it's a bit loud and crowded, the ambience is quite good.
Try the blood orange mimosa, the cafe con leche, and of course those pancakes!!

And they're the only restaurant who has it. Delicious. Not to mention the full bar which can help cure your hangover with a delicious brunch. I had a group of 10, and this place was great. You just gotta get there at the right time on the weekends, cause it gets busy.
