Astro

Peak New York diner vibes - it’s a small space but service is lightning fast so they hustle people in and out so you don’t wait long even if it’s full. Had to get a mug for myself because the aesthetic was just so classic. I wouldn’t say it’s overly pricey considering where it is in New York either, and the portions are enormous.

We stopped in for lunch before a show at a theatre nearby. The location is great. The diner is small and a bit cramped. If there’s a line, people are huddled together waiting for an open table. It’s a mixture of tourists and locals. The servers are nice, but hurried. Food is served fast, our fries could have used more time in the fryer… however the cheeseburger was delicious!! Perfectly made but needed addition of salt and pepper. Large menu… Pricey.

Busy NY diner, but totally worth the wait. Which is really the only downside. You can’t go wrong with the Pancakes and bacon. My husband had The San Fransisco, it’s served surrounded by cutout potato skins, with cheddar, Swiss , turkey and the insides of those potatoes. And what breakfast is complete without some grits. Which were of course very yummy!

We saw this when we were walking and decided to stop because we very hungry for lunch. It was a yummy choice. The food was very expensive but it was fresh. I got the Buffalo chicken wrap with fries. The others got a party melt and Ruben. The pickles were yummy! The service was very quick!

We stumbled across Astro on our first night in NY. We hadn’t been in the city more than a couple of hours and we just wanted something light. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We opted for open faced BBQ brisket with french fries, pickles and coleslaw….the serving has more than enough and very tasty. We returned the next morning for breakfast and I had pancakes,(when in America 🇺🇸), with Canadian bacon…a strange combination to an English palate BUT it works really well and was delicious. The menu is VAST and very varied…well worth stopping by for something to eat. Ps it’s a lot better than my pictures show. 👍😋👍😋👍😋👍
