Opening hours

Had an absolute blast at Ellen's Stardust Diner on Broadway! ? This place is not your ordinary diner; it's a whole experience wrapped up with a bow of nostalgia and Broadway flair. The singing and dancing waiters were just phenomenal - each performance was so engaging, it felt like a mini Broadway show with every order. Seriously, these talented folks could easily be on the actual Broadway stage - And some if not most of them will be! The time just flew by - I was so caught up in the performances, I hardly noticed how long we were there. And let's talk about the food for a sec - so, so good! Classic diner fare but with that extra touch of love that makes all the difference. The atmosphere was just buzzing with energy and excitement, making the whole dining experience unforgettable. I'm already planning my next visit back to Ellen's. If you're looking for a side of spectacular performances with your meal, this is the spot. Broadway magic plus delicious food? Count me in any day! ???

The atmosphere is far and above the reason to come here. The service was good overall, the food is mediocre, as I expected coming in. It was my wife's birthday, and the emcee made it a point to call her by name a few times throughout his audience engagement, which was nice. The singing waitstaff was great, especially Emily. That girl is going places. Our waiter, Alex, was also good both in his attentiveness and singing ability.

This place was an absolute gem! The service was great, the food was good, the singing was fantastic and fun! Went for breakfast since we saw this place from our hotel room window, not knowing what it would be like so it was quite a pleasant surprise! The employees get turns to sing/perform throughout their shifts and donations collected to benefit the future of those employees looking to make it to Broadway shows. With a vast history I started learning during my visit by the manager (who visited every table to check in and spent time having meaningful conversations with everyone). Sitting on the top level was fun and next time I visit NYC I hope to sit on the bottom!

What a surprise! My friend recommended we try this diner, and what a treat… it’s yummy diner food (burgers and fries) paired with Broadway! Each server is an aspiring Broadway singer/actor/actress with each performing throughout our visit, and they come right up to your table. So there is a lot of interaction and audience participation. I now understand why the wait is so long to get in - this place is a lot of fun and our party of 6 was there for over 2 hours. Come hungry and ready to have a great time! They serve alcoholic beverages as well.

So much fun. Would definitely recommend and if we came back to New York we would be visiting again. The food was lovely I had pasta my daughter had a chicken burger loads of food we were stuffed. The singers were out of this world what a show whilst eating. Definitely worth a tip in the bucket to help towards their acting and singing lessons.. highly recommend
