Jams (Midtown, Manhattan) 01/2017

On the corner of 6th Ave and 58th St. this vine covered building houses an unembellished  ground floor eatery serving breakfast, lunch and dinner plus a weekend buffet brunch, for a deceptive set price of $45. Children under 12 are half price. 
Beverages cost extra and 15% is added to the bill
They discourage BYO wine with a $30 corkage fee. 
The place is light and spacious.

Tables are large 

and there is enough space so it is possible to talk without having to shout.
There's plenty to eat and plenty of variety with a chef making omlettes or scrambled eggs to order. Eggs any other way are not available. 

This was their menu

It's a very decent buffet without being outstanding in any way.
