mid overpriced. would come back if they had normal prices and normal food
I live by the motto of “the sketchier,the better”, so I came across this place, I already knew it was a local find. Not to mention, the spicy pork torta slapped. Listen, this isn’t a 5 star restaurant. I need some of y’all on here to lower your expectations a little. I didn’t know the half of you was a paid food critic.
TL;DR Served the most pathetic BE&C of my life, and was told that is how it is made EVERYWHERE in NYC. Pretentious and Self righteous staff, without the food quality to justify it. They have a human working the counter that told me, a 25+ year NYC breakfast veteran, that I shouldn’t complain that there was not enough bacon on my sandwich because EVERYWHERE IN THE CITY puts 2 slices on their Bacon Egg & Cheese, I was even told to ask the delis around me (which I did as I was so taken aback by her aggressive ignorance) and turns out they all serve 3 slices!!! Not only did this raincloud of a woman refuse any kind of addition to the sandwich, she never even for a moment acted like she could be in the wrong. Today I complained about my first bacon egg and cheese in my life and was told I don’t know how the city works by a woman who prepared and defended the most pathetic sandwich I have ever seen in my life. I had to get the agreement of fellow customers there that the sandwich wasn’t up to standard and only then was I compensated. First told I’d get extra bacon (I came in an asked for 1 extra piece so I could enjoy my food) then just given my money back and told not to come back tomorrow and order the same thing. Again, this lady is so wrong about her business practices her approach to other humans and her general attitude and presentation. I don’t know why she would think I’d ever come back. If you read this make sure to get 3 SLICES of bacon, it’s your right as a New Yorker!
:: Hidden gem of my neighborhood. Here’s a secret. The lunch buffet w/ baked chicken… is literally some of the VERY BEST baked chicken ever. Never dry, always moist & delicious. Their side veggies are utterly amazing. $10 lunch plate, protein, rice, beans & veggies & w/ their custom fruit juice included. Huge meal, amazing. Also ask for their jalapeño condiment it’s awesome too. UPDATE: Not sure what happened there but the family that runs & owns the place have become quite unfriendly & have raised their prices dramatically. Inflation yea I get it but their attitudes are horrible. I’m assuming the food is still great but i no longer go there.
I wanted to order food, and I had to use the restroom as well. But I was told I cannot use the restroom. I am assuming customers cannot use the restroom if they are paying their money. I would never recommend anyone to eat here this was very inconsiderate and the young lady was very rude about it.
Good people, good food! I go here all the time.
Best food place in the area the food is fresh and and delicious
