Like working with friends‎‎ Staff is very friendly and helpful with those who are not certain about what they need & want. Maria was very patient and explained the pros & cons of progressive eyeglasses so that this first-timer would know what to expect. I felt as though I was surrounded by friends. My glasses were ready weeks before expected AND are better than I had anticipated. If you avoid shopping for eyeglasses because some optical shops remind you of unpleasant Manhattan cashiers then Pildes on Broadway & 78th is the establishment that will change all of that

Once I walked thru the doors probably 15 years ago, I have never bought another pair of glasses elsewhere. Been around the world and all over the states but when I need new frames or stronger lenses I always go back to 77th and Broadway. Why? First – Jay. He’s authentic and smart, easy to talk to and takes care of me like family – and this is how I felt from day one. His inventory: whatever look you need – fun, hip, flashy, subtle, sophisticated, functional, designer, outragious, soft, or cool. The service: always been efficient, thorough and careful at the same time. The staff: patient and generous with their time. Cause I make them pull frame after frame after frame out from under those glass showcases as I pick and choose that new look for myself. And I switch up and do this once or twice a year. The place is a gem – they are everything one needs when looking for glasses or optometry services…contact lenses, shades……cause they have it all and most importantly their prices …‎ More »Once I walked thru the doors probably 15 years ago, I have never bought another pair of glasses elsewhere.

Of course it doesn’t hurt that they are situated next door to Caridad (Best Cuban Chinese food in the city) and sometimes I just want to get some Beef Szechuan or Plantains, bring it back to Pildes and pull a chair up to the counter, eat and schmooze with Jay about the neighborhood.
