Price: Moderate
• Breakfast • Little Italy
Booked 2 times today
Morning Glory is a garden of eggy delights. We primarily only accept walk ins at Morning Glory. Once the restaurant is full, we use a waitlist through OpenTable which notifies you via text message when your table is available. You must be physically present to get on that waitlist. With strong support from soufflé seekers, that wait can be lengthy, especially on the weekends. We have opened up a handful of reservations for our last seating of weekend brunch services to offer an alternative to the waitlist and guarantee a spot for the few who are seeking to join us later in the day.These spots are coveted and can be booked up to 30 days in advance for Saturday and Sundays only from 2:45pm-3:15pm.

Classic and forgotten cocktails are reclaimed and re-oriented, dignity intact but with charm and character amplified. VULTURE is a fertile oasis, a secluded nest amidst arid convention. You will be roused by its audacious originality and comforted by its strange familiarity. It is the home of the best dinner party of your life, and the most fussed over Martini in the city.To arrive at VULTURE, walk inside our storefront micro-diner named DREAMBOAT, where our Maître d' will be waiting for you in the back of the diner.

    Nice setting on the covered back patio. Excellent service. Small entre selection with some items not available at an early dining hour. Decent wine selection for the size of restaurant. My linguine a la mama Alexander was seemed to me to be a thicker noodle than linguine and too heavily spiced. All the entres seemed overpriced. With the tip my bill was $200 for two, with a bottle of wine and desserts. But again, entered were not pastas beyond what are very commonly available in similar restaurants.

    Advanced reservations recommended. We had the soufflé, the German pancake, carbonara, and the fried rice. A lot of food for two. But we were not sure when we be back. Plus it was in the late afternoon so we made it more of a brunch then breakfast. It was worth the wait and the food was out of this world. Can not wait to go back and try other items… the Turkish eggs to name one.
