"The food was fresh and had enough variation to it to make it new and different while still qualifying as comfort food."
"A good menu with lots of different options and all food fresh and well prepared."
"The food was amazing and so were the drinks."
"Everything we had was fantastic: fried artichoke, both flavors of wings (we ordered one serving and then ended up ordering more!), grilled cheese dippers (the boys said these were the best grilled cheese they ever had)."
"The food and drinks were delicious and portions were generous."
Cons:
"The food was cold, but okay."
"I think portions are smaller than I thought."
"Everyone except one person from our table didn't get his salad until we were almost all done."
"I’ve been brunching at Grey Dog for years and it was one of my favorite places to eat in the city. However, for about a year the portions started to be half the size they were."
"The nachos were soggy and the cheese sauce was thick and didn’t even taste like cheese?"
"Food is below mediocre, service is average at best."
"Coffee and food weren’t that special. Eggs tasted very bland."
Service
Pros:
"Friendly and careful service."
"Exceptional service!"
"Awesome customer service too - the staff is very thoughtful and hospitable."
"The hostess and server were very nice."
"The waitress was super nice and we would gladly come again!"
"Service here is always top-notch."
"The staff was exceptional and very friendly."
Cons:
"I rated this restaurant only 3stars for their service."
"I’ve never had a dining experience where I had to wait for water, utensils, salt, got my food order incomplete and worst of all, with chunks of something I didn’t order mixed in."
"We were told we needed to leave because they needed the table and that we had a 5 min cap to leave."
"Your host Lauren does not seem to understand how to assist others in the order they are queued."
"Staff brought the bill, turned off the music and turned on bright lights before we had even finished eating making it incredibly clear they couldn’t wait for us to leave."
"The service was generally slow and inattentive."
"Servers need to put more effort, our main waiter only took our order and disappeared."
Atmosphere
Pros:
"Location is super cozy and low-key."
"Vibe is cool."
"Cosy, chique and perfect for a late brunch."
"The ambience was very friendly, the staff even more so."
"Atmosphere was fantastic for this great restaurant."
"Great vibe to the dining room...very comfortable and clean."
"It’s a very cosy place with friendly staff."
Cons:
"Overall I did not enjoy my visit here. The music was notably too loud."
"I do not recommend this place for a group over 4 people!"
"The restaurant did get too busy for me. I didn't like that."
"But cappuccino was mediocre."
"Overpriced! Food did not taste good and was also very simple."
"Also the tableware was damaged and dirty. We did not feel comfortable."
"Terrible loud pandora music with commercials playing out of a really bad makeshift speaker!"
Value
Pros:
"Had the chicken sandwich, worth every penny. Was perfect on the breading and came with a giant portion of fries."
"Food was excellent- we liked everything we ordered and the price is great for the area!!"
"They have happy hour everyday with 50 cent wings."
"The happy hour deal here actually still feels like happy hour prices!"
"Excellent food at a reasonable price."
"Great value for money and lovely atmosphere and staff."
"It was an incredible value and felt more like a ~$50-$60 brunch you would get in NYC."
Cons:
"Iced Mint Tea was very good, but for $6 and no refill, it was only about 6 oz. of liquid."
"We paid about 75 bugs for the brunch but the quality of food was worth max 30."
"Sodas are $4 for a very small mason jar filled with ice & refills are not free."
"The avocado cost more than the chicken?"
"Not worth it. Avocado toast had poached egg but white were raw and yolk was cooked…thru don’t know what poached egg is apparently."
"Had the Grey Dog Spritz and the Banana Daiq Attack; not really worth $14 each for a drink though."
"My eggs were cold. Food is blah( not well seasoned! )"
