- Michelle EvangelineAugust 27, 2016Their waitstaffs a who can sing very well. Try their crispy chicken wing and Smores shake and burger with mushroom. Come early or be prepared to Q for dinner. Lunch is good because Q is shorter.Upvoted Jul 17
- Andrew MooreMay 31, 2013Touristy but in a good way. If you come as part of class trip for lunch, I suggest getting the grilled chicken sandwich or Caesar salad. Stay away from the chicken strips or pasta pommodora w chicken,
- Jess ArnoldDecember 30, 2015I got a spicy crispy chicken sandwich. It was pretty tasty! The spicy sauce they bring is sort of like buffalo sauce. Definitely get a milkshake for dessert! Zech was a great server!
- Norah CordovaNovember 8, 2016great dinner food, it's expensive yet the experience is worth it, Waiters are talented performers that will sing famous broadway songs.
- EllensStardust DinerFebruary 20, 2015The U.K. is in the house! A huge U.K. crowd is in the house making it a lively breakfast - Tilly & Nikki (our resident Stardusters from the U.K.) wow their home town visitors. Read more
- AbhishekJuly 4, 2017Broadway show for the price of a cheeseburger? Yeah! Make sure that you plan to visit this place in advance as you will probably have to stand in a long line to get in! Don't miss the malt shakes!
- The food is hit or miss here but the entertainment is A++. Great restaurant for any theater lover. The Chicken Pot Pie is the best thing I've tried on the menu so far.
- ℳ𝒶𝓎♍December 25, 2019Typical tourist spot in the heart of Times Square. You definitely go for the entertainment rather than the food! Each server is someone trying to bust into the theater scene. Some are truly phenomenal
- Chris MallonAugust 25, 2017Really whacky place - singing wait staff (all are aspiring performers with their sights on broadway) mean it's pretty loud but hilarious. Food was awesome too (try the duke chicken sandwich - nom)
- Robert NeumannJanuary 18, 2017Went in with a few friends from out of town, wanted to do something touristy. The singing waitstaff was as talented as always, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good my brisket sandwich was.
- Maria HenkelMarch 7, 2018My daughter had a wonderful sweet 16 birthday here. The waiter even did a Dear Evan Hanson medley for her and her friends because one was wearing the shirt from the show! Such a memorable night!

- Laura K.December 24, 2022This is about an experience more than the food. Don’t let a long line intimidate you because it will move quicker than you think. It’s busy and noisy and FUN inside! NYC must do ❤️
- Tara BreeJune 21, 2017Fun atmosphere. Generally there is a line wrapped around the corner, but we arrived at the right time. The staff sing songs from popular musicals. The pulled pork sandwich was delicious!
- Shirley CelerinDecember 19, 2015The servers were awesome! The burgers were OK, could be better Can't go wrong with a great sing-a-along or serenade!! Would definitely return for the entertainment and the milkshakes!
- Zach LonsingerAugust 6, 2014This place is amazing. And so fun. The waiters and waitresses are aspiring broadway performers and sing while they wait on you. Great family atmosphere!! Arrive early or expect to wait in long lines.
- Emily-janeOctober 11, 2019Does exactly what it says on the tin! Your servers singing non-stop showtunes, diner food & a whole lot of campy fun! If you're looking for a quiet, high quality meal this isn't the place for you!

- Khalil Faron SmithCraftFebruary 5, 2014The waitstaff's performing show tunes is worth the wait and the food is just ok. But you should come for the entertainment. I will come back every time after or before I see a show on broadway
- Elie HirschfeldFebruary 17, 2016Great place to eat following a Broadway play. I went after seeing Rent and it was very entertaining, to say the least. I went with the grilled cheese.
- Nate FolkertJune 9, 2017when our waiter started his song, i thought we'd have to wait until he was done to pay the check, but he ran my card while he sang

- Nena MidwinterNovember 24, 2016Amazing and the bacon bowl with mushrooms for breakfast! Yummmm! Singing hits from les Mis and wicked made my visit amazing! Incredible voices
- Nicholas BorgeNovember 29, 2018Obnoxious process. We were put upstairs, couldn’t see any of the singers at all, and they refused to move us to any better spots even if we’d wait again in line, so basically a pointless outing.

- Christian DickmannFebruary 16, 2017The feta cheese omelette is a great choice. Other diners in the city offer better breakfast food, but the singing staff makes Ellen's worth going to once.
- Inglorious v1COctober 20, 2014Ambience is fantastic!!! You'll have a great time with real aspirants to Broadway!!! Break a leg guys!!!
- TomFebruary 24, 2015Come here for the entertainment, not the food. Very touristy but worth the visit. The food is forgettable, the singing waiting staff is not. Had the Walter Cronkite waygu beef burger and carrot cake.
