Follow along if you know this one: “In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their stories.” And if you ended the last part with “Dun Dun,” then clearly, we are on the same wavelength.

For 25 years, the dynamic duo that is Stabler and Benson and the self-described "junkyard dog" that is Jack McCoy have graced our screens, all thanks to Dick Wolf and the creation of the “Law & Order” franchise. As a salute to a quarter century of primetime television, the crime drama is taking over Rockefeller Center for a limited time this fall, and it plans to be especially heinous.

From October 3rd to 5th, the “Law & Order” universe will launch the “Dun Dun Diner.” Recreating a hangout made for the elite squad, the pop-up will churn out classic diner staples and limited-edition merch, all thanks to partnerships with Milk Bar and Dinner Service NY. Plus, the interior will feature interactive moments, posters of the cast and quotable moments that will make you feel like you are on the case. 

The “Dun Dun Diner” will be open Friday, October 3, from 1pm to 7pm; and Saturday, October 4 and Sunday, October 5, from 9am to 7pm. It is free and open to the public, but you do need a reservation to get in. Available on a first-come, first-served basis, the reservation window opens on Friday, September 19 at noon via Tock. So reserve your spot here
