6/27/26: Stopped by Tasty Nook Cafe for breakfast while I was in the Medical Center area. The…read morerestaurant was clean, the staff was welcoming, and the service throughout the meal was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Big Eaters Platter, the Corned Beef Hash & Eggs, and shared a Nutella Crepe with Strawberries for dessert. The portions were generous, especially the Big Eaters Platter, making it a solid choice if you're coming in hungry. The corned beef hash was decent, and the Nutella crepe with fresh strawberries was a nice sweet finish to the meal. That said, I thought the food was just okay for the price. Nothing we ordered was bad, but nothing really stood out enough to make me want to come back. The quality was solid, but I left feeling like there are better breakfast options in the area for the same price point. If you work nearby or are visiting one of the surrounding medical offices or hospitals, I could definitely see this being a convenient spot for a quick breakfast or lunch. However, as someone visiting the area, I don't think it's a place I'd go out of my way to return to. Overall, friendly service and a clean restaurant helped make for a pleasant experience, but the food didn't quite justify the price. A good neighborhood café if you're close by, but probably not a destination breakfast spot.

The Tasty Nook Cafe has a sterile, college cafeteria feel…read more Although the staff is nice, my server forgot to put in my order, so I had to wait about thirty minutes more for my chorizo omelet. The omelet arrived well done. I forgave that but this was the blandest chorizo I had ever tasted. It was devoid of flavor and there was no hint of any kind of spice. At least the peppers and onions had some flavor. What I tasted the most was grease and that prevented me from finishing the omelet. The hash browns were crispy at least. The latte was ultra-bitter and tasted burnt -- severely burnt. I will not go back.

Based on so many positive Yelp reviews about its breakfast, I decided to give it a shot. It's a solid eatery. The place is comfortable, well lit, with a heavy diner feel that I really like. All the customers seemed to know the waitstaff by name (Barbara), which I find cool. She was very attentive and friendly. The veggie omelette with egg whites was very good, with tomato, broccoli and cauliflower (I ordered it without cheese). It came with home fries and toast. The home fries were well prepared and came with a covering of sautéed onions. Yum. I got an English muffin that I ordered without butter and it was . . . an English muffin. (C'mon, I'm not going to be dramatic about an English muffin. : ) ). And the coffee is decent with free refill.

The new location is decorated in bright colors, lovely overhead lighting, plenty of seats and tables. Service was excellent! I was pleasantly greeted and waited on right away. They have a variety of sandwiches, salads, chips, and amazing cookies. I ordered the New Yorker with corned beef, pastrami, coleslaw, cheese, and Russian dressing on a marble rye bread. It was delicious and they were very generous on the meat. I also ordered two of their phenomenal cookies. They are super yummy and melt in your mouth good. I got a chocolate chip and an oatmeal raisin. And, they are really large size too. Parking was a little tricky, but once all the snow and ice is gone, then it will be easier. So, make sure and stop by and visit the new location. It is nice to have more food choices in Rockville Town Center.

I got a small (called a "Beanie" sized) New Yorker and my partner got the same sized Pastrami sandwich. Both sandwiches were a good size with what appeared to be good quality meat. My New Yorker came with Thousand Island dressing and cheese - both were in the sandwich in ample amount and accented, but didn't overpower, the other flavors. The marble rye bread was good, too. We had one sandwich toasted and the other not. I recommend toasting the bread. We also shared a cup of Maryland Crab soup ($6.99). Excellent broth and filled with veggies. Really good soup and a cup was more than enough to share. I wish them luck at this location. A good sandwich place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

Food offering & preparation gets a C for effort, yet the quality of taste & service gets an D. The disconnect between the kitchen & deli/grill areas showed no reservations while arguing with each other & in various languages. You are absolutely on your own trying to figure out what is what. Unless time is on your side you have nowhere to go & can wait for assistance. The Cashiers were friendly, prices were ok, self serving station for utensils & such was messy.

It's located in the lower level of a government building. If you're not from the building and looking for a quick bite, there's a paid public parking garage across the street.

I was here about a year ago and the place was pretty quiet. Same today. You order at the counter and then they call you when your food is ready. Food came pretty promptly. The omelette was a nice size, filled with green pepper, onion and tomato bits. The potatoes were well prepared and were not dried out or oily. They really are well prepared - nice sized chunks that are charred on the outside and soft on the inside. A little bit of onion in with the potatoes. The toast was toast, but it was good too. Decent coffee. It's not fancy and for milk there's a choice between half and half cups and Coffee-mate. Refills on the coffee are $1. The place isn't fancy.
