“ While looking for breakfast spots in the area, I found this spot and was drawn to the challah French toast. Arrived and there was a brief 10 minute wait before getting seated. Ordered the French toast with eggs and bacon (there are no sides of eggs so you have to order the two eggs meal with no toast to get eggs) as well as the fried chicken sandwich with truffle fries. Everything tasted good but the star of the show were the truffle fries! The French toast was lovely paired with the berry sauce although it had a slightly tart aftertaste. The fried chicken was well seasoned and even thought looking at it I thought it would be dense and heavy, but it was a very light sandwich! It’s ridiculously pricey - while the food was good and the service was decent I wouldn’t say it should be that expensive (1 slice of French toast for $22 is kinda insane). Also note: a biscuit here doesn’t meant the flaky pastry but instead means a cookie or biscuit in the European sense of the word. ”
“ Little Collins is a must-visit for brunch in NYC! The cafe has such a cute and charming atmosphere, and the staff are some of the friendliest you'll meet. Our food was delicious, and I especially loved my Shakshuka—it was packed with flavor. Great food, great people, and a great vibe. What more could you ask for? ”
“ Everything was absolutely delicious! The dishes were beautifully plated and full of flavor, fresh, balanced, and satisfying. The Eggs Benedict were perfectly cooked, the pancakes were light and flavorful, and the fruit bowl was incredibly fresh. The orange juice tasted freshly squeezed and was the perfect complement to brunch. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy yet lively. A definite must-visit for brunch lovers! ”
“ The food was flavorful and had unique elements that stood out from traditional breakfast places. We had the salmon Benedict eggs, the salmon roti and the French toast with a side of bacon. They were all delicious but the French toast with challah bread was my favorite. The average wait for a table of 4 was about 30 minutes. ”
“ Yeah this is one of the best breakfast places around, no question. Seating is a little tight but everything on the breakfast menu is awesome. The broccoli burrito, the benedict, the rosti, the French toast - there are no bad choices. And they have the best pour-over cup of coffee that I’ve ever gotten anywhere. I’m glad I decided to stop in the first time I walked past them. ”
