"Eleven City Diner is a deli/restaurant hybrid that really leans into the retro diner vibe: It has 1950s music, neon signs, and counters with glass cake stands and huge jars of old-timey penny candy for sale. Come here for the all-day breakfast dishes like omelets and challah french toast, or things like pastrami and corned beef sandwiches. Brunch on the weekends tends to be very crowded, with a pretty strict seating policy (everyone in your party must be present before they’ll seat you, and once you’re seated, no one else can join), but they start serving lunch at 10am during the week in case you need a break from your sad work-from-home desk salad." - veda kilaru, adrian kane, john ringor
