An unrequested, unhinged review of UES diners.

Gracie Mews Truly the GOAT of UES diners. The blueberry pancakes were fluffy and luxurious, the blueberries big and juicy, perfectly warmed in the batter. The side of bacon is huge. I also have enjoyed their BLT and outdoor seating. Pictured above.

Gracie Diner I’m biased because this is my closest diner, but the food is consistently tasty, the new location has a beautiful aesthetic, and prices are ok.

Green Kitchen Love the ambiance, service is friendly. The plants outside always make me happy when I walk by. Food is as expected, nothing mind blowing.

The Mansion Get the waffle fries and milkshake, cry when your bill is $30. Delicious, cute, very overpriced. Only note is the menu is so big, why is it as long as Cheesecake Factory’s?

Midnight Express Decent pancakes, love the large windows to people watch.

Lexington Soda Shop Absolute skip, saw a cockroach while eating here. Portions are small and the food is bland.

Have not eaten at Ritz or Triple Decker yet.
