Golden Diner

Best diner ever. I’ve been coming for over a year and recently had a group dinner outside for my birthday. Golden Diner set up a special menu for my party and reserved the seating away from other guests (social distancing). My guests felt comfortable and the food was cooked to perfection! Highly recommend the wings, burger and chicken katsu.

So great Golden Diner is still making a go through the pandemic. We really miss sitting down there. Even so, the breakfast burrito travels like a champ. The new Rueben quesadilla crushes it. Matzo ball soup outstanding. Great food by people who love making food.

Fresh sourced ingredients, delicious Korean inspired menu options. Winning dish for this visit was the seasonal bibimbap bowl? , refreshingly & creative use of summer veggies like sweet corn, watermelon radish, eggplant and fennel with the creamy barley base that ties it all together.

Side note on the outdoor dining: the passing subways overhead on the Manhattan Bridge can be a little noisy. Not anything we could do about it, just adds to the new norm for dining out.

Ordered the Katsu Club Sandwich. That was great. Good portions. Service took a little while but that's understandable in the middle of the pandemic. The sandwich was loaded. And each thing tasted great. But I do wish there was lesser mayo in the sandwich. The drinks are super creative but maybe I was expecting a bigger serving for the price or they charged for the quality of the ingredients. The cocktail itself was pretty top.
