Truly one of the greatest diners in NYC, and the best patty melt I’ve ever had in my life. Fantastic food, prices, and people. Come hungry and explore the menu beyond eggs and bacon. That’s where the gems are.

Joe Jr. is everything a classic American diner should be — simple, comforting, and done right. The breakfast here is basic in the best way possible: perfectly cooked eggs, crispy bacon, fluffy pancakes, and hearty portions that hit exactly the way a diner breakfast should. No gimmicks, just well-executed classics.
Service is fast and efficient, even when they’re busy, and the food comes out hot every time. It’s the kind of place you can rely on for a straightforward, satisfying meal without any fuss.
A true New York staple. Five stars for delivering diner food exactly the way it should be.

Absolutely delicious. Crispy corned beef hash. Silky scrambled eggs. Even the toast and butter was quite good. The prices and portions were reasonable. I finished my meal without leaving any leftovers, yet still felt satiated. Great service with a kind smile. The vibe is unpretentious and relaxing. It feels nostalgic like a place where the characters from Seinfeld would hang out. There are not too many tables and the lunch hour can get busy. Seating is not a problem because the patrons come in for a quick bite then leave. The restroom is the smallest I’ve ever seen as if built from a broom closet.

Went here with my beautiful wife and we ate like queens. I had a breakfast combo with a waffle, two fried eggs, and two sausages, and washed the whole thing down with orange juice. It was very filling and at a reasonable price for Gramercy. The wife had pancakes and coffee. They were on par with what one should expect for coffee and pancakes at a diner. We’ll be back!

Classic old-timey diner with large portions and good food. There really aren’t too many tables, and there’s a bit of counter space, so you should be prepared to potentially wait a bit to sit down.

Although just a tad bit salty, this place has an absolutely classic delicious pastrami sandwich to die for. Friendly staff and a great retro atmosphere here too, and reasonable pricing.
