"No frills" and "old school" don't even scratch the surface. As bare bones and unpretentious as it comes. Knish themselves are hit or miss. I find the savory ones to be mostly really bland, but the sweet ones (esp cheese and apple) are wonderful. A lower Manhattan institution regardless.

This is a New York landmark. Having grown up in New York I have fond memories of this place and it really hasn't changed much over the years.
The knishes are delicious and they have more variety than the kasha and potato knishes of my youth,
Delicious borscht .
If you are in NYC treat yourself to a fun experience.
This place is not fancy, it's a small space but really authentic food.
