"The timeworn character of Willensky's gives it a charm that transcends the sandwiches, cherry Cokes and egg creams on its menu."
Michael Stern
"Here's the dish for which Willensky's is known, a pressed-flat sandwich containing slices of bologna and salami. Cheese is the only option."
Michael Stern
"It's unusual at mealtime to find empty seats at Willensky's counter. Nobody lingers; this is a place where customers are encouraged to eat it and beat it."
Michael Stern
"Have it your way? No. At Wilensky's you have your sandwich Wilensky's way."
Michael Stern
"A genuine egg cream (here called a frappe), perfectly made, meaning that there are still streaked veins of chocolate syrup in the bottom of the glass."
