Ask for one off hours and you'll hear a joyous uncorking pop in the rear. If you don't want a mimosa, even this small restaurant has a fun little wine list and some quirky beers, and odd sodas too. The eggs are well poached. The Canadian bacon is tasty, if a little dry from overcooking. Sometimes a large portion of ordinary ham is served instead.
English muffins are well toasted.
Small, quartered roasted potatoes, once served liberally and unidentifiably spiced, have lately been more bland. Service is unusually informal. If there's a hostess, she's a chatterbox. Waiters tend to be very young women in light, casual dress. For relaxed diners accompanied by friends or just the Sunday paper, New Prospect is a comfortable place to eat, and hard to leave.
