"Such a great place to go to while visiting NYC. The waitstaff is hired when they are on a break from Broadway shows and they are fabulous!! They are extremely talented singing, entertaining and they do an excellent job multitasking taking care of you while your there. 👏 The food is just simple American food but solid. Their drinks and milkshakes are a work of art in themselves. The COOLEST thing is they release a ton of streamers from the ceiling while your there! It is a full out party almost every hour! Epic!! Check this place out!! 🥳 🎉 🎊 🍾 🥂 🥳"

"Probably overrated but still a must do when visiting New York as it’s very unique. The queue was about half a block long but took about 25 minutes to get in. Inside it’s quite loud but also quite a fun atmosphere. The service was VERY slow but probably to be expected if waiting staff are also performing but even so was a long wait after ordering. Hot Chocolate was delicious, the food was just okay but the onion rings were delicious!! Definitely overpriced for what it was. We didn’t like that the first thing that was mentioned was a tip bucket when we arrived and the again when eating…there was a mandatory tip added to the bill (no problem with that) and then again asking for a tip when paying. We have no problem tipping but it almost seemed like busking / begging. Definitely not one to miss especially for the kids but probably not one to return to"

"Great place to experience. The staff are amazing singers as they wait for their big break on Broadway. We just popped in for some drinks and snacks. Great atmosphere. Was highly recommended to visit and we glad we did. A must for anyone visiting NYC. We got there at about 3.30pm and there was no queue. After 15 minutes queues started to build presumably for dinner service, so worth getting there late afternoon."

"You should DEFINITELY come here when you have the time. The singers/Waiters were hilarious with some of their movements, and the food took a little time, but the atmosphere totally made up for it. My personal favorite? When our waiter threw straws at the other staff and said “SING!!” It was the funniest. Service: they were really polite and respectful of their customers. it was nice."

"WOW!!! If you're in the Big Apple and are looking to stop somewhere for a quick bite and catch a show....This is The Place for Both!!! The Stardust was envisioned by a former Miss Subways beauty queen, and it is where you'll find Great Food served by an amazingly talented staff of actual Broadway performers! They take turns breaking into spectacular songs, showing off their pipes! Our wonderful waiter rang up 2 bills and filled & served multiple beverage orders without missing a note, balancing the bevs & bills with the mic! Your host invites you to toss a donation into a blinged-out bucket to help your wait staff pay for added lessons as they wait for their Big break. You may have already seen them on the Great White Way! Years ago they used to hop up on special tables to strut their stuff, but these days they have a cleverly built mini runway down the center of the main floor. The food was fabulous (grilled cheese perfection with waffle fries!) and if we waited for it we didn't notice because we were enjoying the non-stop show! There was a line outside to get itn, and they go by the number in your party to coordinate with the seats available. It went fairly quickly and was So Worth It!! And don't forget to purchase some mementos on your way out!!"
