Other breakfasts there are also very good. Pricey yes however the ambience,service and quality of the food more than compensate!!

That's a big claim. Have you had Clinton Street Baking Company? What makes these so delicious? What else is good there? More importantly, where are some of your other NYC bests? Burgers? Pizza? Wings? BBQ? Serafina,

Tell me more about these pancakes. That’s a big claim. Have you had Clinton Street Baking Company? What makes these so delicious? What else is good there? More importantly, where are some of your other NYC bests? Burgers? Pizza? Wings? BBQ?

These are the truly best I've ever had in Manhattan and always go back for them. Try the buttermilk pancakes and tell me what you think. -S The BEST pancakes in NYC are at the Pershing Square Cafe on 42nd St. (across Grand Central).

They both use bananas and mascarpone, and they're absolutely otherworldly. If you’ll accept french toast as the alternative pancake, then you must try newcomer JoeDoe and old faithful, Extra Virgin.

I don't think you can really put Lemon Ricotta Pancakes in the same category as the buttermilks. They're a totally different breed. As far as Good Enough To Eat, I've never had the huevos rancheros, but I've definitely seen them and they do look good. As far as specials go, they're all nice in concept but as I said in my review, the small portions negate the good intentions. <strong> Katie K,</strong> Il Bastardo looks pretty cool. $15 bucks for all you can drink is definitely legit. I'll have to put it on the to do list. Thanks for the recommendation. What are some of your other favorites in the city? <strong>Problem Child,</strong> Stick with desserts and you'll be fine. <strong>Phil,</strong> Gross. Kristen,

Problem Child,

Stick with desserts and you’ll be fine.

I actually used to go to Sette every weekend for brunch because the deal was good and my friends and I could sit and talk for four hours with unlimited mimosas! Sette went away but re-opened under a different name I believe, and with the same owners as before (they own Il Bastardo as well). I plan on going back! 7th Ave & 21st street.

Sarabeth's Lemon-Ricotta Pancakes are about the greatest thing on earth... i cant comment on most of their other breakfast but rest assured that the lemon-ricotta pancakes rock. Good Enough to Eat makes some awesome (if not authentic) Huevos Rancheros... and most of their breakfast specials are pretty good... However, i will grant you that the strawberry butter is the best thing there... i think your problems were in your choices… Sarabeth’s Lemon-Ricotta Pancakes are about the greatest thing on earth… i cant comment on most of their other breakfast but rest assured that the lemon-ricotta pancakes rock.
