I actually think the hype cycles aren’t just TikTok/media-driven—they’re also celebrity-driven! The place was on a reality TV show a while back, and Kendall Jenner ate there too. I totally get that it’s frustrating for locals who used to pop in quietly, but for what it’s worth, Golden Diner has always been tough to get into for weekend brunch without an advance res—like, 2–3 years running.

That’s not true, just 2 years ago I was able to walk up and put my name in then return. They’ve completely shifted the model which is now that people lineup before. Not saying it’s their fault, but is this really the way? Having folks line up 2 hours before opening to put their name down?

I lived in the LES until last year and had no issues getting a table so this has got to be recent?
