The restaurant doesn't actually exist; the interior was on a soundstage. But the exterior is Tom's Restaurant at 112th and Broadway, also made famous in the Suzanne Vega song 'Tom's Diner.'

Unfortunately, the food at Tom's is AWFUL. It keeps going by being a 24-hour diner on the Columbia University campus, and it's a popular student hangout (because student's don't care much what they're eating.)

The real coffee shop that inspired Tom's was the Westway Diner, on 9th Ave. between 43rd-44th Sts. Jerry Seinfeld used to hang out there.

I love the jumping the shark theory...[www.observer.com]
