Why All Bad Reviews?? – Don't know what the other reviewees are talking about. I had lunch there on Sat and although it was a bit crowded, I thought service was friendly and fast. Food was really good, better than average. II ordered the Ban Mi sandwich w/ fries and onion rings. My other guests had the burger and ruben. I actually like the open air vibe and I love that you can people watch and still be inside. Great location and view of Soho. I would definitely come back next time I'm in NY. I am however giving it a 4 star r... read more

HORRIBLE HOT MESS.. – I've never written on here before, but after eating here today I was strongly compelled to. My friends and I have been wanting to eat here for awhile. The location is great, the decor is really nice, but thats seems to be all they have to offer. I love food and I love eating. I'm not really picky and I usually finish all of my food, but this is one place where I didn't. The food here is absolutly disgusting. My friend asked the unenthusiastic waitress if the tuna sandwich was good, she hesitated for qui... read more

Don't believe the hype! – Time Out New York said this place is "Better Than It Needs To Be" well my experience could have been a lot better. I've been wanting to visit this place for a while - the decor looks lovely and the menu looks interesting... unfortunately our server had very poor knowledge of it. After some debate with the waiteress over basic menu items, my dining partner was informed of the bizarre rule that omelettes are only served until 830am. We looked in puzzlement at the array of poached, scrambled and benedi... read more

airhead staff – Been wanting to check this place out for a while. Food was ok and the atmosphere was good. The one reason I'll never go back though is the staff. The hostess was an idiot - it would have been less annoying to have nobody standing there than this airhead, totally lost and obviously avoiding all customers. When I rudely interrupted whatever mental vacation she was on, she got us to a table, leaving us with an equally stupid, but less annoying, waiter. Had to get our own drinks from the bar, and the table next t... read more

such bad food and service – i'll start of by saying that i love CAFETERIA (same owners), but......... the hamburger spring rolls were completely saturated in grease (worse than TGIF) and the pastrami sandwich was a hunk of rubbery fat. they wouldn't make my sandwich "lean" as i requested and i could barely find a piece of the pastrami that was edible. my other issue is the crowd and the NOISE. it's like a bad Saturday Night LIve skit in there. a million loud, obnoxious yuppies piled up at the bar and overflowing into the tab... read more

Needs A/C; food was good – I had lunch the other day and the sandwich I had was good. The place was not that crowded and surprisingly (based on the reviews I have seen) filled with "normal" people of all ages. My biggest complaint is that it is too hot. They need to close the doors and put on the A/C. The open air idea is nice but it is too hot, steamy and smelly in NYC for it to work, especially during the summer. The decoration is quite beautiful though--I didn't see the other lounges.

I'd rather eat frozen dinners. – So my girlfriend and I live a few short blocks from this place and have passed by many times but tonight we went in with no expectations. We were going to Spring Natural but figured we should try something new. The host said there was a half hour wait (which is common for a Thursday at 10:30) but recommended we try the mini bar downstairs. The mini bar smelled like a bathroom so we quickly retreated upstairs and told the host. He sat us right away at a table inside. For the next half hour we ... read more

Worst Service I've Ever Experienced – I have never posted a review on Citysearch before, but my bad experience at Delicatessen drove me to open an account first thing this morning just so I could warn others... I went to Delicatessen for dinner last night with three other girls. We arrived at the restaurant on time, and my friend told the hostess that our party of four was ready to be seated. The hostess looked at her quizzically and said that she thought we were only supposed to be a party of two. We spent the next HOUR sta... read more

Long wait for whatever food – We live in the area and I didn?t have high hopes but I really just wanted another "go to" place for easy food. We ended up going for brunch the atmosphere is nice, and let?s face it the location is great, but that?s about it. We ordered the Asian Salad which I think had soy sauce on it as its dressing, but thank god we at least had that, because the food took nearly an hour to get. My wife ordered the waffles which she actually did like but I had the fish and chips which were just like any other... read more
