Best

Good food for reasonable prices. Delivery people are always kind and friendly.

Worst

I've only ordered one thing from here, but it was not good. The Grecian Wrap lacked any kind of dressing. Most bites were pretty flavorless, unless I happened to get a bit of feta...

Editorial review from GrubHub 11/14/2008

I've only ordered one thing from here, but it was not good. The Grecian Wrap lacked any kind of dressing. Most bites were pretty flavorless, unless I happened to get a bit of feta cheese. The chicken was all to one side of the wrap, not mixed in with the other ingredients. Chicken noodle soup was included and was chopped up oddly and was okay. Maybe some of their other food is good; just don't order this item. more

Best diner food on the east side 11/10/2008

Really good. I have had so many different things there. Ranging from a deliscious burger to a tune melt, to eggs benedict. Although it is pricey, Morning star cafe is quick and you know you are going to get really tasty comfort food. I suggest the Bacon Cheesburger Delux and an order of cheese fries. Pros: Really tasty comfort food Cons: Expensive breakfast, lunch, and dinner more

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? 11/8/2008

read the reviews and wanted to try Morning Star Cafe - anyone that thinks this place serves tasty food doesnt' get out much - and the service (if you're going to wait on tables in nyc it's a good idea to speak/understand english) is really poor - very lame. Don't be fooled by these reviews like I was ... this place is AWFUL at best! more

Best Eggs on the Planet 4/27/2008

I went to Morningstar 5 times in 2 days, consuming a grand total of four omelettes and a New York wrap. Don't plan on going to Morningstar if you don't want your omelette to arrive within 90 seconds of ordering it and/or you don't want it to taste delicious. If you want something slow and not delicious, go somewhere else. more

Eh 1/29/2007

I've been here a bunch of times, and it's just your average diner. The one thing that is consistant is that my eggs are always pretty oily, which is kind of gross. The homefries are good, and the service is quick. I wouldn't come here if I didn't live around the corner. more
