Cute spot with comforting food.
This restaurant is styled as a traditional luncheonette with a counter and table seating. The atmosphere is definitely a highlight but the space is small and I can imagine it fills up VERY quickly on weekends. On this visit we enjoyed the banana date shake, an iced coffee, the Sparta plate, the Zorba plate, the blueberry and cream pancakes and the baklava banana waffles.

The banana date shake is rich and creamy with a perfect, deep sweetness from the dates and a comforting scent from the banana. The shake should be served with a larger/boba straw as it is impossible to drink through the one provided. There were some larger date chunks at the bottom that should have been blended a bit more.

The iced coffee was notable as it was nicely sweet even without sugar. I really enjoyed my coffee.

The Sparta plate is served with savory eggplant patties that provide a texture reminiscent of sausage patties. The eggs served at this restaurant are visible good quality with golden orange yolks and rich velvety textures. There is also a red pepper sauce which works well with everything on the plate. The plate is flavorful but I would probably choose a different option next time. The serving is too light and I am not vegetarian so there isn’t a reason for me to get it again.

The zorba plate is much heavier and just as delicious. A plate with halloumi is always appreciated and this dish delivers on all fronts of flavor.

The baklava banana waffle is great but the description is a bit off. I wouldn’t say it’s heavily baklava, more candied pecans/walnuts. Delicious but it would be complete with a honey forward butter syrup. The flavor profile just needed some completion.

The blueberry and cream pancakes are fluffy and tender. The blueberries are excellent quality and the cream cuts through the heavy textures to balance the dish. Really delicious and classic.

The price point here is JUST a little bit high. I had two full plates of food and had room to spare when I left. For two people it was over $100 which is just a lot for breakfast food and nothing here is hefty.

thoroughly enjoyed everything about this diner. from the space to the service everything was flawless and as an aficionado of diners i love how they’re doing some traditional style greek food without frills or breaking the bank. everything was perfect literally. frothy coffee i asked not too sweet was dope, the breakfast plates filled me up, and the baklava flared pancakes just topped it off. can’t wait to come back

Fantastic breakfast, lunch, brunch, food, and a unique and quite camp restaurant. Definitely recommend this place and we will be back.

The food was fantastic and you could tell they used good quality ingredients. The Zorba platter was filling, fresh, and hit the spot. The blueberry baby cakes were amazing.

There was a funny picture frame in the bathroom titled Baby of the year with a Google review of someone who said the food was great, but the service was bad. Just found that funny; nothing else to say.

Stopped by on a random weekday and waited for about 15 minutes. The restaurant has cute retro diner vibes, it’s a small space, and our server was friendly. There are a lot of healthy options to choose from. We ordered the Zorba Plate, Like a Greek Bagel, Lamb Burger, Blueberry Baby Cakes, and a frappe.

Zorba Plate – Loved the variety, but the potatoes took up the majority of the plate. Still, everything was really good and well-seasoned. I just wish it came with more pieces of halloumi.

Like a Greek Bagel – Came with a long piece of crispy sourdough instead of an actual bagel. It was creamy and zesty, served with a side of smoked salmon.

Blueberry Baby Cakes – Fluffy and amazing; no syrup needed. So good!

Will be back if I venture out to Williamsburg again.

Retro diner with decent food. The blueberry baby cakes were a standout — so perfectly fluffy that I didn’t even realize I forgot the maple syrup halfway through! The lamb smash burger was stellar. It came with a side of potatoes that were a tad on the greasy side. If you got the 1 in 5 chance of getting the crispy ones, they were amazing, but the 4 in 5 chance of getting an oil soaked potato was not worth it — I would sub for a salad instead. The eggplant fritters were … edible? Zero crisp, zero flavor. If something is on the menu and I’m waiting an hour for it, I think it should at least taste like something. I would come here again if I was in the neighborhood and there was no wait. But definitely not worth the wait.

The fig toast made for a tasty snack and the watermelon juice tastes fresh and limey. We were sat pretty quickly but the place looks like it definitely get busy. I have no real complaints about this place but it’s also not something to write home about. It wasn’t necessarily exceptional.

Baby Blues has the best restaurant vibes I’ve ever experienced. The decor is perfectly curated, creating an incredible, unique atmosphere. The food was also a huge hit. Everything was delicious, and I especially appreciated the healthy options. Plus, the portions are big, so it’s a great place to order a few things for the table to share.

I LOVE THIS PLACE !! Hands down the best brunch spot in all of NYC. The Plato’s plate and Blueberry pancakes were very satisfying (quality & portions were perfect). Service was great and staff was very kind. The space is beautifully decorated and I love the baby blue theme. There wasn’t a wait when I went last time but it’s definitely worth waiting if there is a queue. I’ve been here a few times now and it’s consistently a 10 / 10.

Must order when you go:
Frappe
Plato / Zorba plate
Baklava banana bread

Good food, casual but cute atmosphere – Zorba plate was delicious, but honestly the sandwich (I think goat finger?) stole the show it was so so good. It was goat cheese, some kind of sweet jam and it was perfect.

Very very long lines so would recommend going during off peak times (aka not saturday and sunday morning) otherwise you may be waiting for over an hour – they do not take resos – worth waiting but one time I went the hospitality was not great because the staff were likely overwhelmed and since they’re busy they don’t “need” your business so that sucked a bit, but all in all yummy spot, nice staff in a general sense, and good spot to have in the neighborhood!
