Always fast delivery. Any specialty instructions I note are always followed. Friendly service too! Great for late nights.

ZERO stars!! It took them an hour to get to me and the food was COLD!!!! I had to re-heat the food in the microwave!!!! Not to mention they messed up the soup order. I don't recommend this place at all!

Chicken caesar wrap is not a hot meal no matter how much you want to believe it should be (and yes, it's disgusting that way).

They didn't include the coleslaw and soup offered with the foccacia sandwich. The sandwich was gross and greasy.

Love the matzo balls, chicken fingers and egg white and fat free cheese omelettes. Great new neighborhood diner we are thrilled to have!

disappointingly slow service - we have ordered numerous times from Cafe 79 and generally very good food and large portions - must have been bad timing (Sat @7pm) busy time - delivery was 45 mins and cold soup and cold, soggy fries - will try again, though since otherwise had been good in the past

Great diner food. Excellent pancakes, and other breakfasts. They do their fries just right, most of the time. When they make mistakes, they always send out the correct items without any hassle. Overall, a very good 24 joint
