    Yum! We love the villa and their food is delicious and well made. This is classic breakfast diner…read morefood, so don't expect an avocado toast, frittata, charcuterie board vibe. This is a simple, no frills, pancake egg hash brown coffee kinda joint. This is NOT brunch - it's breakfast. No complications, just simple good food. My boyfriend's two favorite things are the biscuits and gravy and the French toast. He gets it every time and it's always good. I usually get a combo breakfast with scrambled eggs, sausage links, corned beef hash and hash browns. Can't be beat! The food is hot and delicious. The prices are totally reasonable so you'll have to wait awhile if you come in person especially on a weekend. Expect to wait up to an hour. If you don't want to do that you can also order delivery which I've done a few times. Overall, this is a great spot for simple hot and delicious breakfast!

    We were looking for breakfast heading out of UVA family weekend and it this hit the spot! So much…read moreso, we forgot to take pictures of the food. Highlights include the 1) eggs: whether sunny side up or scrambled, delish and well-seasoned, 2) accompaniments on the table: jelly, butter, syrup, half and half, sugar, salt and pepper, hot sauce...didn't have to ask, 3) service was overworked but really kind and as responsive as they could be, 4) menu variety: they have something for everyone. Drawbacks: none. That all being said, this is absolutely solid but nothing unique to any diner. (That would be my only suggestion...like Penn state diner has grilled sticky buns...a unique dish would make this a stand-out)

Came here on the earlier side, and there was a table of older gentlemen and a table of cops. Usually a great sign of stick to your bones, no-frills, food for value. Our waitress was great and we were quickly seated in a Comfy booth. They had all your diner classics and some healthy options which I truly appreciated. I had an egg white veggie omelette, which came out lightning with delicious fries and a side of tzatziki sauce a must! Breakfast sandwich with a side of cottage cheese. Delicious home-cooked meals done right! Yum!! I love a place that has customizable options to make your breakfast feel like comfort.

    Tony's Diner doesn't look like much from the outside since it's tucked away at the end of a strip…read moremall in Charlottesville, but don't let that fool you. We were greeted by Tony, the owner, as soon as we walked in and were seated immediately, which made us feel welcome right away. Our waitress wasn't especially bubbly, but she took good care of us. It may have just been her morning personality, and the service itself was perfectly fine. We stopped in for breakfast. I ordered the pecan pancakes with a side of sausage, and the pancakes were delicious. There were three large pancakes on the plate, so it was a great value. My husband had the French toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and home fries. The breakfast was classic diner fare, but the home fries were exceptional. One of the highlights was getting to chat with Tony when we paid. He shared a little about how he came to own the restaurant and some of his background, which added a personal touch. We also ended up talking with the regulars at the table next to us, and it was easy to see this diner has built a friendly community of loyal customers. The menu is extensive, with just about every breakfast option you could want, plus a wide selection of Greek dishes for lunch. Overall, it's a welcoming neighborhood diner with generous portions, good food, and an owner who clearly cares about his customers.
