Considering it's near Lincoln Center, the prices are good and for what is really an upscale coffee shop, it's kind of pretty because it looks like "Olde New York." But the quality of the food has gone down. My friends and I used to go there often -- I looked forward to the delicious portobello mushroom sandwich which was loaded with veggies and garlic and a healthy helping of mushrooms. Now, the layer of vegetables is patheticly thin and it's not very garlicy. As the place fills up, the noise level escalates, making conversation painful The TV, which no one watches, adds to the cacaphony. But as I said, it's reasonable for the area so we'll probably continue to go there.

This was the first time I had been to Old John's. I thought it would be better when I got there. The food was pretty good for diner food. But I wasn't expecting anything spectacular. Had a turkey burger. Anyway, I left and then realized 4 hours later I didn't have my $400 sunglasses. In a panic I called them. They looked and found them. I picked them up today. It's so nice to find a place with honest workers in the city. They could have easily said they didn't find them. I'll be going back purely because of that.

Nice neighborhood place. Very friendly owners and solid food; burgers are above average and the meatloaf is delicious.

Just right for a quick lunch with our three kids (ages 5, 9, 12) before a Lincoln Center performance. Very basic food - burgers, grilled cheese, great milkshakes. Diner atmosphere, friendly staff, quick service. For those looking for a "real" restaurant, this isn't it. Suited us just fine.

Let's face it, Lincoln Center dining spots are all overpriced. Old John's is old reliable. Sandwiches, burgers, beer or a milkshake (which are terrific, btw) are the order of the day, though their chicken pot pie can be quite tasty.

We had a great meal. Just looking for burgers and a beer this is the place. No push to get out and the price is right. We had a fine time.

This is the kind of place you can go when you don't feel like cooking but dont want to go through the whole ordeal of eating out.... reservations, getting dressed up etc. The food is good, all american, home cooking. And they are very accomodating in cooking whatever you want, however you want it. The atmosphere is nothing special, but its casual and very comfortable. This is our favorite, "go to" restaurant and we feel lucky to have it in our neighborhood.
