This is one of those diners that looks like a vintage diner but really is new--maybe 10 years old? But that's okay because the food is very good (much better than the coffeeshops that used to be everywhere in Manhattan but are now far & few between). The portions are really generous. I've ordered in more than eaten in, and lately they do tend to get some of the order wrong. For example, they forg...
