Hear from our valued guests
I hadn't vista this establishment in years. Last Sunday my son encouraged me to have brunch there and the did not disappoint! The food was great! The service was top-tier! Atmosphere was giving nostalgia with a nouveau twist. It was quite an experience for anyone looking for a good meal.
Chelsea Square Diner is a staple for us—we come here almost every weekend for breakfast and it never disappoints. The pancakes are a favorite, and the biscuits and gravy are also excellent. Portions are generous, so consider splitting. Service is always friendly and attentive, and the food comes out quickly. It just feels like a classic NYC diner experience.
Me and my friends had found this place online and the second we walked in, we knew we found a fantastic spot. Our server was a sweet gentleman who greeted us and tended to us with amazing care. When we sat down the lighting was beautiful, the decorations were so fitting, and the atmosphere was so cozy. The food was brought out quick and incredible. Will be returning just for the food and Dennis we think that’s his name
Great breakfast with authentic atmosphere. I had never had such an enormous portion of food before. That pancakes were bigger than my head and they were delicious. They also refilled my tea with hot water. Service was nice and quick. Would definitely recommend this place.
I cannot believe I haven't reviewed this incredible, comforting restaurant yet. That's because it's one of my favorite places in the Chelsea neighborhood and in Manhattan altogether. It's a bustling, busy place, a traditional New York City restaurant pulsing with the hustle of the people who make this city their home. Their menu is immense. Take a look online. Everything is good. The people are excellent at their jobs and mostly leave you alone. It's wonderful that it's open around the clock. There's always somewhere to go.
This is my favorite Diner ! Always good energy, the staff are very welcoming and treat me kindly. Great service! Food is always fresh and delicious. Very reasonably priced! You get a lot of food for your money. I love eating here !
Been twice this time around. Everything is lovely. Fast and delicious, with nice portions. Staff is friendly and lots of seating is available. Highly recommended.
I've been coming here ever since I was a student in NYC 13 years ago. Everytime I came visit, I'd always come here. This time I came with a friend and both ordered Huevos Rancheros and a coffee. The portion was huge and certainly very delicious. Not the cheapest place for a breakfast, but it has maintained its quality over the years. It's not a big deal, but I'd have to mention that our server lady was a bit impatient when taking our order. My friend is a chatty old lady who hasn't seen me for 6 years or so. We told the server to give us some time, but when she came back we still weren't ready. So I said give us 2 more mins. She literally came back 2 mins later. We just picked what we saw on the menu, and my friend ordered the same thing. Please have a bit of more patience...
We were craving a great diner, and we found one. We had great service, great food, and a great atmosphere. I wish I could remember our waitress’s name because she was terrific. We would definitely recommend this place and will absolutely be back!
Never in my life have I seen better, tastier food or BIGGER portions in New York 😭🤍 The portions here are absolutely insane they seriously do NOT hold back on anything. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and huge that the camera honestly cannot show how much food was actually on the table. I got a salad, my boyfriend got pasta with meatballs, and we literally could not finish our food because the portions were THAT massive 😭 And the atmosphere… sooo beautiful. The ambiance is cozy, warm, and just has such a nice energy. One of those places where you just want to sit for hours and enjoy everything ✨ You guys HAVE to come here, seriously you MOOOOST come 😭 This was honestly unbelievable and we will 100% be coming back again😍😍😍😍
