Dishes that I tried and recommend

We went to Viand Coffee Shop for breakfast and ordered pancakes. OMG! This was the real taste of America for me :). There were thick, moist, served with crunchy strips of bacon and a delicious small bottle of maple syrup.The restaurant offers free refills as traditional in a real diner.

How’s the service?

The service was efficient although not as friendly as other places we’ve visited.

What’s the best tip at this restaurant?

I strongly advise you to come for breakfast since it’s very particular. As you wake up slowly with the delicious smell of food, we meet New Yorkers in their daily lives, it’s very American.

The prices are reasonable for New York City, in between $10-$15. Here’s the menu.
