The Viand

The server was a very nice girl, very helpful. Not complains about the service. The burger ??? This photo speaks for itself. The Patties were gross. It was greasy and it didn’t have not a single milligram of salt. Hire a new chef.

Took my wife to the city for valentines weekend and wanted a place that felt more local for breakfast. This place is awesome. Great service and atmosphere. When the reviews say the portions are huge, believe them! Neither of us could finish ours. Will be adding this to our future trips.

Been here a couple of times, and each time I've been more than satisfied. They have a wide variety of diner food with some American and Jewish staples. Highly recommend their Eggs Benedict, breakfast sandwiches, and wraps (namely the Texas Wrap). Aside from entrees, I'd suggest Challah French Toast or pancakes to share (generous portions). I haven't been here for lunch yet, but its on my to-do list.

Great ambience, great service good ok (omelettes Greek and veggie did not impress - had better ones at many other places), decent prices

This is the quintessential NYC diner! We went on Christmas day for a snack during a frozen walk on the UWS. Lovely, friendly people and Wow, the food! We had 3 different kinds of soup, all fantastic. I had the split pea and it was delicious. The loaded potato skins were so good and a reminder of why people love loaded potato skins that are not just warmed up in a microwave. Go there!!

Spending the weekend in NYC and looked for a place to have breakfast near Central Park and to our good fortune found Viand!! Solid reviews and really deserves more than a 4.3 rating..come on folks, hype up your favorite spots… because this place a strong and steady flow of local New Yorkers for breakfast (especially families with young kids). My breakfast sandwich, The Modern, was delicious! I was able to change the ciabatta bread to the brioche bun which was soft and sweet and the tomato bacon jam was out of this world, yummy. I’ll definitely add bacon to this sandwich next time. My partner got the steak and eggs, good sized steak, well seasoned, cooked to the desired temperature and the eggs they use here are huge and hearty! We don’t usually like shredded hash browns ( prefer breakfast potatoes) but their hash browns are pretty good with onions and peppers and again, well seasoned. Atmosphere is very nice, small but not cramped, clean, and the staff are wonderful; friendly and attentive without being overbearing and they seem to work well as a team to serve all customers. Overall this was a really great experience, slight dings for the fact that the coffee was pretty weak (and o don’t like strong coffee so that’s saying something), and the orange juice was a bit tart/bitter. But that aside we enjoyed it so much we ordered a salad and Cuban sandwich to-go for lunch later! Awesome food, great service… stop by!!

The service was amazing. Kelly was our server. Couldn't be more friendly and attentive. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. Coffee was a bottomless cup. I'm wired! Waited for a friend who was a bit late. The staff were patient and kind. NY diners are the best 👌

I walk past this diner all the time and finally decided to try it. Cozy diner with cute booths. It was busy and raining when I came in the employees were very accommodating as I opted for their covered outdoor seating and changed my mind preferring indoor seating. The chicken souvlaki was a little messy to eat but delicious. The chicken pesto panini was good but it would’ve liked a tad more chicken. The fries were really good, I would go back just for them and curious about their breakfast items like their dulce de leche French toast and eggs w/ corn-beef hash
