Love Cafe — Restaurant in New York

This was a huge disappointment. Ordered the french toast and added sausage. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles. We only ate a few bites and decided to be done because it was that disappointing. Ordering out is about eating things that are either better or different than what you would cook for yourself. This did neither. The french toast was basic and almost burnt. I added my own toppings of powdered sugar and fruit compote since that is what french toast usually offers. The sausage was a smashed blob of meat. The fried chicken clearly had been frozen as its texture reflected that and the waffles were rubbery. At a price point of $18 the chicken should be freshly fried and if sausage is an additional $4 it should warrant that. Because we live in the neighborhood I decided to make my own eggs as they would have been another $4. I’m glad I did as that was the only thing I ate. I’m sure their other items are better as the reviews claim as much but this was just so disappointing that I don’t know if I would give them a second chance considering it’s a...

I hate to leave a bad review for a local spot like this but wow have things changed! I almost never leave reviews but i felt the need to share this with the business. I’ve lived in the area for almost 10years now and used to frequent love cafe for their tasty breakfast food and delicious ice coffee but I’m in total shock with my recent visit. Granted, i haven’t been here in a couple of years but the ice coffee tastes nothing like it used to. The sausage egg and cheese that i ordered was gross! Tasted like old cooking oil and stale sausage and the Belgium Waffles with “The Works” was basically a chocolate soup with a waffle inside which didn’t even have Nutella like it used to. Seems like there’s a different chef cooking the food. The service is still top notch and the atmosphere hasn’t changed. This is not a negative review on the establishment itself but more a review on the food. Maybe this was just a one-off experience because The Love Cafe has always been a...

Absolutely everything over priced and the owner is incredibly rude and disrespectful. The sandwiches are never gonna get you what your money is worth because they’re stingy with their portions and predatory with the prices. A water bottle being a dollar fifty right in front of a high school where there are kids just trying to get a bite to eat where there aren’t a lot of affordable places is ridiculous. I’m an alumni from the highschool in front of this place and throughout my four years there I’ve experienced the owners disrespectful manner and heard stories of him looking and treating the female students of MCSM in completely inappropriate ways. Don’t know how the place has such ratings. Probably relies on the cops that come in in the mornings for business. Attached is one of an experience a student had at this cafe. Hope it...
