Food was ok at best. Prices were high for quality.The oddest thing is that they had 4 young children, clearly belonging to the staff, playing in the dining room and kitchen. I only saw 4 actual employees working. It was kind of like paying top dollar to eat in a day care.

We come here for breakfast a couple times a month on weekends. Solid diner breakfast with more options than a greasy spoon place.Omelettes are large.They are always busy on weekends but we only waited once for 5 minutes.To go orders have always been as good as dine in.

They were just lovely! My companions were a bit late and even though the restaurant was super busy and could have used the table, they seated me right away and were very attentive even though I didn't order anything for almost a half hour. Our food came fast and it was good, diner food. Nice sized portions, I couldn't finish mine, and they kept our glasses and coffee full. I ended up ordering for my companions before they joined me and I missed one item. They brought it and they weren't going to charge me for it because I had already paid but I insisted on paying cash for it. Definitely recommend!

Came to Virginia from Georgia to spend Christmas with son & family. Wanted to treat them to breakfast before we started home so googled "best breakfast in Bristow" and Gainesville Diner came up. We laughed at negative reviewers who received a letter with IHOP address and just knew we had to visit this place!! Food was excellent and service was fast & friendly. Checked on our table several times. Our group had omelets, waffles, gravy biscuits, grits, pancakes, toast & jelly, country steak & gravy, scrambled eggs, and bacon. And every bite of everything was delicious!! Especially the western omelet...no wait...especially the grits...no wait...especially the--aw heck...it's all so good.You've got to eat here. Wish I was local so I could try that fajita omelet. And lunch!!

Great breakfast. Good portions. I got the country fried steak and it is supposed to be a highlight. It was very tender but a little bland. Was cooked really well though. Would definitely recommend.

After seeing reviews where the owner told complainers to got IHOP, we had to check it out. We weren't disappointed at all. The owner personally came to our table and gave my wife the biggest double espresso we've ever seen. The service was friendly and I left there fighting a food coma. Absolutely recommend!

Always very friendly staff. Always great and fast service. They make your entre anyway you want it. The restaurant is clean and process are comparable with other diners in the area. Breakfast all day, which is my favorite. Breakfast scramble comes with eggs and biscuits & gravy is my favorite. They also have healthy options with turkey based meats. Lunch and Dinner options range from classic American to Italian/ Greek entries. You won't be sad you came here. my husband gets the open turkey sandwich or chicken parmesan pasta with veggies. This is our favorite outing place. Come try them out.

The staff was so friendly, and the service was great. We ordered a multitude of different foods, from soup to omelets and burgers, and it was all delicious. There's a great variety of foods, and they were happy to accommodate my food needs! Will absolutely go again when we're back down here.

Stopped in my way through town, the omelet and breakfast potatoes were amazing!

excelentes atenciones, y una comida riquísima ?
