Little Collins

We came for the Brunch items but we got here too late, so we stayed for lunch and it was yummy! Glad we stayed. The feta was my favorite part! It went perfect with everything we ate. The service was fast, and the ambiance of the restaurant is so chic! I loved it all. Can't wait to come back earlier and try the brunch items!

Food is tasty, but the space is quite cramped, the staff aren't the most attentive (needed to flag staff down for an extra place setting, refills on water, etc), and the space is a smidge too loud and busy for intimate conversation. My shakshuka ended up coming out to over $26 after tax and tip, which also felt *extremely* overpriced for an ambiance reminiscent of an overcrowded fast-casual restaurant. Take out might be the move here.

The food here is amazing! The pancakes are fluffy and tasty, the perfect amount of sweetness topped with strawberries and a smooth mascarpone and toasted hazelnuts. The orange juice is perfect! Freshly squeezed and you taste it. The bacon is probably some of the best bacon I've had from a restaurant, so HIGHLY suggest getting a side if you're a bacon fan. The workers are awesome, the restaurant is always busy so they are doing a fantastic job making sure everybody is taken care of!

This place has been bookmarked as I've been wanting to check it out for lunch. It's close to Grand Central Terminal so if you're in the area and want to grab a healthy and hearty meal this is the place to go. You may do take out or dine in at the restaurant. I chose to do take away. I was shocked to find out that this isn't a chain.They serve both breakfast and lunch. However, I came for lunch so I ordered the steak quesadilla which has sirloin steak, roasted red & green peppers, onions & mozzarella with sour cream and salsa Verde. I enjoyed the meal and was very satisfied. The portion size was great too!

I had the Shakshuka and my husband had the pancakes. The food was delicious and I opted for sourdough bread to accompany my food vs the pita. Our waitress was very accommodating as we were in a bit of a rush. I would definitely visit this restaurant again.

Excellent service and food! Hits the spot. Little Collins is a cute, boutique restaurant that offers breakfast, lunch, and drinks. They were busy and we had to wait a little bit. If you are in a rush, you can order off the to-go menu. Staff were all friendly and welcoming.

Loved this place. I went for a solo brunch on a Saturday which is admittedly a very crowded and busy time. But I was able to order in the front takeout area and then eat at the counter in the window, which worked perfectly for me.I ordered the Lox Sammie on gluten free bread without the cream to make it gluten and dairy free. It was incredible! Perfectly seasoned and flavorful while still being a fairy simple brunch meal. It was lox, egg, onion, capers, and had some delicious garnish. The gluten free bread was thick and fluffy. On the weekends you can only order from the breakfast/brunch menu so I would love to go back during the week and try more of the lunch food. My food took about 10 mins to come out which was very reasonable. Initially I was sitting at a high table in the front that I thought was for people who ordered to go, but I was told that area is only for people with coffee and pastries. A nice server relocated me to the window counter and brought me utensils and a plate so that I could eat there comfortably. Great experience!!!

We've had take-out from this establishment a few times. The line in weekends just doesn't seem worth, so we've only done to-go, and it's decent enough that we've come back a few times.This time around, we each got the Avocado Smash - one with multigrain bread and one with sourdough. We added to that a muffin and a scone, and both of the pastries were decent, but nothing to write home (or to yelp) about.Their Doordash profile prohibits comments or special requests for orders, and this is where I usually emphasize that we don't need any plastic cutlery. I shouldn't have to do this, (1) because the're sending it to my HOME, and most people have cutlery at home, and (2) it's actually against the law in NYC for restaurants to automatically include plasticware and such, and it's been in force for nearly a year now (went into effect Jan 2024), so I'm always baffled that people still do this. Little Collins, please get your act together. Stop polluting unnecessarily and save yourself some money.

Still consistently good.Holy sushito is extremely delicious. Gets packed when in the freezing weather!

This place does brunch right, I've been here twice and ordered take out once. Found it by accident when I was out on errands and decided to give them a try and it was really good.
