Shaikh's Place - Brooklyn

This charming old-fashioned lunch counter is a hidden gem. Open 24 hours a day, the prices are very affordable, the service is quick and friendly, and the food is delicious. The portions may not be massive, but they're not small either. And at just $5 each, why not just get two servings?

Imagine you are coming home from a night out with friends and you're coming out the train hungry. I went the Shaikh's place at midnight and ordered a Quesadilla with pork(the have other options as well) took 7-10 minutes to get come to plate and would have to say it's really good. I have had their tacos as well and that's great too for a well established price.Often when I want something sweet I would choose here. Get a few donuts and we are good to go. No pictures for now but will follow up with some.

Unfortunately, my recent experience at this restaurant was disappointing. While they offer delicious food at a reasonable price, the service I received during my visit in the early afternoon was unacceptable. The older Spanish man with glasses working at the counter was extremely disrespectful, the rudest person I have ever encountered. Despite this, I will still return to the restaurant late at night, as the younger gentleman working then was always polite. The late-night atmosphere, with its colorful patrons and occasional shenanigans, is a stark contrast to the earlier visit.

No matter week day it is or time of day, I WILL ALWAYS BE SATISFIED WITH THEIR FOOD. And my favorite times here are after a long night out and its super late, nothing open or good to eat..but this place will serve you breakfast, lunch or dinner anytime of day. My is always the basic 3 scrambled eggs with bacon, home toast, and home fries. Too it off some tea and their freshly made donut.Theres no better way to end your night or even better start another again for round 2 :

I can't believe a place like this exists! They are open 24 hours a day and their donuts are only $1. But that's not all, they also serve delicious food cooked on a skillet like chopped cheese, Philly cheese steak, burgers, breakfast, pancakes, and tacos. The donuts are light and tasty, I'm almost embarrassed by how often I've been going there in the past week. I may need to start going to the gym soon. The food is cheap, but it's prepared by two very talented men. I've been there at 1am and also during breakfast hours, and these guys are quick and make everything taste amazing. The strawberry glazed, coconut glazed, crullers, apple filled, Jelly, and chocolate frosted donuts are probably the best ones. I almost don't want to leave this review, but I have to because for just $7 you can get a BEC on a roll, 2 donuts, and a coffee. It's unbelievable.
