I have been saddened by the quality of breakfast joints some ask too much (Claire's pantry) or are too gimmicky (Beth's) or fast food (IHOP, Denny's) so entering this greasy spoon was a treat. If you're looking for anything other then good cheap breakfast go to the others but if no nonsense simple delights is what you want then swing in here. Upon entering this place you will be entering an old fashioned American restaurant but don't let the veneer fool you. The owners and the wait staff are Greek and celebrate this fact. Every first Thursday of the month they have a Greek night, and the food on the daily menu has a bit of the Grecian flare. The burgers are good the omelets are great and the wait staff is friendly and a couple are pretty damn cute. read more

The waffles do NOT come out of a toaster; they're terrific, crisp, not of the Belgian but of the classic American variety. The service is friendly, the prices reasonable, the food excellent, the menu extensive, the atmosphere friendly-diner: It is, I think, the best place for breakfast in the north end. I've mainly enjoyed breakfasts here, but also a few lunches; the turkey sandwich (made with real turkey roasted on premises) is terrific: generous, simple, tasty. This is clearly not a place for gastrosnobs, which means there aren't many in evidence, which gives the place its final, fifth star, I M O. read more

This is a fine diner. Hardworking folks, nothing pretentious. Leave your Seattle attitude at the door, have a plate of food. It's a small place, but has parking. You do need to get in going southbound, but doing a u-turn is pretty easy. Seat yourself, I grabbed a chair at the counter and read my book with a cup of coffee. The waitress was down to earth and friendly, and pretty much assured me I'd be a regular soon enough. Had Andy's Scramble, which was filling and priced right. All no-frills, but was just what I needed. read more

This is a perfect neighborhood diner. Great breakfast served all day. A wide ranging menu that should satisfy every craving without being overwhelming. Everything is fresh. Their hand made fries are great. And Greek Night on the first Thursday of every month?! Opa! read more

Since my last review wasn't very informative, it's time to give Flo-Anna's a review they deserve. Flo-Anna's is not a very big cafe but it has a lot of character and you can tell it a great place to come hangout due to a lot of regulars that come in. My wife and I came here this morning for breakfast, since we enjoyed the last time we were here. We were seated right away since it wasn't very busy, so not waiting is always a plus. The hostess was very friendly and greated us as soon as we walked in the door. Looking over the menu, it was hard to decide what I wanted to eat, there are plenty of great options to choose from. I don't know why but a milk shake sounded so good, so I decided to order one of their old-fashioned strawberry milkshakes for $5.99. I felt like being a rebel and start the morning with a delicious milkshake. My wife decided to keep it simple and go with a cup of hot coffee, BOOO. HAHA. After mulling it over I ended up ordering the Greek Omelette, that had Gyro meat, tomatoes, onions and feta cheese for $9.99. Let me tell you that was an amazing omelette. The Gyro meat and was cooked perfect and tons of flavor and added with the feta cheese just made it that much better. YUM!!!!! My wife ordered the two piece french toast that came with eggs and hash browns for $5.49. The french toast looked so delicious I had to take bite and boy I am glad I did, they were so damn gooooood. The portions here are just right, not to big and not to small, just right. It's a great little cafe with a nice and friendly staff. It's a great place to bring the family and kids and they have wonderful pies that the kids will really enjoy. I have yet to try one of the pies but they look really good in the case. Next time for sure I will be getting a slice. read more

There are many mysteries in the universe, few are as baffling as the positive reviews on this place. Flo Annas puts the grease in greasy spoon. It is dirty. The food was disgusting, the coffee one step below Farmers Brothers. The minute we sat down we questioned why we were there, followed by regret when the food showed up. This place is disgusting. read more

Their chicken fried steak sucks ass, all breading, no flavor, fresh from the freezer!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Its the perfect restaurant. Great friendly and attentive staff, your glass is never empty (even when its busy) and they're just so nice! Its obvious that a lot of their customers are regulars. And the food is well cooked and always hot, which is big for me. They cook an over-medium egg perfectly! Which is rare. The pancakes are HUGE and fluffy. Its just like a really great home cooked meal and I love coming here when I'm too lazy to cook my own. Never tried anything except for breakfast, but that's because they serve it all day and its just so good!!! Did I mention I love this place?! :) Looks like a run down hole in the wall, the only thing they should do to make this place better would be to expand since they're always so packed with happy customers! read more

I live nearby but had not visited Flo-Anna's until this weekend. I really wanted a traditional club sandwich and fries. I was not disappointed by the sandwich although it seemed smaller than the ones I remember eating in the past but where I was disappointed was in the french fries. I love homemade fries when they are light and crispy and golden brown but if they are dark and bitter and thick skinned like these are then I would much prefer the frozen type from cash and carry. Not sure if we will be back because light crispy fries are a must for me. read more

Clean. Fast service. Good food, reasonably priced. Plenty of parking. Big menu. They bring the coffee around regularly, so you don't have to ask. If you want add-ons or changes or whatever, the answer is 'yes'. Friendly staff. Sometimes busy, but I've never had to wait to get seated. I've had breakfast and lunch there many times, always left happy. read more

Great old school diner. Total greasy spoon! Seems to be frequented by the older crowd. I tried the Greek omelet and walked away very happy. Will be back to try out the dinner fare sometime soon. read more

This is my second time and I am sure will be the LAST time! First time was "ok", this time was disappointing! Ask waitress specifically that I want soft thin pancake (not hard one like IHOP style) and ask the beacon strips to be crispy,she seems understood by nodding her head. Turn out the pancake was thick not soft !!! the bacon was hard instead of crispy! When you expect something and turn out the opposite way,wouldn't be fair if you lose your appetite? read more

Solid old fashioned diner. Good food, good service with a old fashioned feel. Parking is good albeit a tad scary pulling off of their busy street into their lot. Regardless, I'll be back. read more

A gem of diner! Great breakfast, good service and good portions! I'd go again when I am in town!

Pretty good food here. Good breakfast. Ok for kids. Its a family run restaraunt. Ate here few times. Prices are average. Not enough parking and not very easy to get into the parking lot if you are coming from the south. way better than the place next door. read more

This diner is a great place to visit if you're looking for that cozy local diner feel. They serve great mimosas for breakfast and have the best customer service hands down! There is parking available in the lot although you can only enter from the southbound direction of 522. The prices are about $10 for a plate and you will likely be full. This isn't the healthiest spot around, be prepared for grease to compliment your meal. I recommend stopping by for that hangover burger and hair of the dog! read more

I've been here twice for weekend brunch and both times have left very satisfied! They are pretty small and packed on the weekends but both times we have been able to get a table quickly. The food is typical yummy breakfast food but the portions are huge! Haven't tried their alcoholic morning beverages but they look good--- bloody Mary's and different kinds of mimosas. The people working were also very nice. This may be my new breakfast spot! read more

Breakfast review: Ahh, Greek-American diners . . . always such a good greasy spoon, and this one is no exception, in fact it excels. This place is in my opinion the best eggs/hash/bacon plate in wider Seattle. If you are looking for Eggs Benedict, Biscuits and Gravy, etc, you can do better (but not in North Seattle), however as a simple breakfast place, this can't be beat. read more

Great service and the chicken fried steak was SO yummy! Portions are huge and they are friendly and efficient! Yummy diner food!

I just love this place. Fast friendly service, home cooked meals, and very helpful even when you're on a funky diet. Love this place. Comfort food for sure. read more

I have been a die hard customer for years and "Oscar" is the best cook! Love it now that they serve beer and wine and "Greek night" is the first Thursday of every month with delicious Greek food served. read more

I have been driving past this place for so long, and I never even had a second thought. However with all the Denny's closing down my husband and I decided to give FloAnna's a try. My husband and I had breakfast there and were very pleasantly surprised. Somewhat typical breakfast menu, eggs, bacon, sausage and such. I had the chicken fried steak and it was really good. Pancakes are big enough to share. The place is a bit small, but we were seated right away on a Saturday morning. That goes a long way for us, read more

After driving around Lake City looking for something to eat after Pug Day - we came across this diner. My BF said 'We can leave if it is scary on the inside'. It wasn't. Basic diner on the inside with a lot of locals about. I had a swiss grilled cheese with tomato. It was jammed full of tomatoes and the side of potato salad was great. No bacon in it so as a veg - I could eat it. Huge cokes. Would come again no problem. Love that they have a pocking lot! read more

Came here on my birthday as I had a hankering for waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. Placed my order which cost $8.59, and for that I got ONE single waffle that was soggy in the middle from the strawberry juice. I just cannot believe that a place could charge almost $9 for a single soggy waffle, no sides. read more

I love this spot. Go here nearly every week with my three kids and it's the highlight of their Saturday. Big grins as they order their "regular" from Alana, our fantastic waitress. She once gave my 10 year old daughter a polly pockets doll and my 8 yo son, I think is in love. Great service, good food, and right here in the 'hood. It's not the Canlis, but what did you expect in 'lil old Lake City? read more

Not sure what I was expected when ordering a salad but it was ice berg lettuce with a heavy amount of balsamic dressing. Nothing special but everyone in my group seemed to enjoy what they had. read more

I wanted it to be a little better - I love diner food, but this was all a bit tasteless. Super friendly staff, though.

Went here for breakfast on a Sunday. We got seats right away, so that was good. But the food wasn't very good. There was nothing special about it. The hashbrowns were flavorless, the poached eggs were flavorless and extra runny--not in a good way. It's hard to screw up breakfast but this place was just so bland! read more

I ate here for the first time on New Years day, if you are in a hurry forget about it. Breakfast was great! I had French toast, the syrup is yummy and the service was good and attentive. I will be going back, soon. read more

We came here for breakfast and the portions were pretty large. The food was good, nothing super special. All in all, I would come back again. It's a step up from Dennys or Shari's. read more

A very relaxing Ma & Pa type diner filled with comfortable and attentive waiting staff. My wife and I are ova-lactate vegetarians, and have plenty on the menu we can eat. The food is great! I've had the veggie burger, pancakes, and cheese and mushroom omlettes, and all three were great... the omlette, though... omg. VERY good. The chocolate malts are wonderful as well. I highly recommend Flo-Anna's for a relatively cheap, cozy meal with or without family. read more

This is my favorite go-to breakfast place when I'm in Seattle visiting my daughter. Food and service are both great, a perfect spot to eat, read the newspaper and linger over a few cups of coffee. When my daughter was pregnant, they even made her spaghetti with a couple eggs scrambled in for breakfast. What can I say, she had the craves. read more

I had hoped for a great breakfast but it was just okay. My friend's pancakes were too large & thick & bland. I ordered the Flo-Anna's omelet, asking for crisp hash browns and a well-toasted English muffin but neither were. On a positive note, the waitress was friendly and we didn't have to wait to get a table at 9:00 on a Sunday. Also, my husband and other friends have had good lunches there before. I just wish it had been a great breakfast today. read more

Greek American restaurant. We had breakfast here. Service was very good; food was excellent. Recommended.

Nice play, nice people, tasty and friendly. I recommend this place to everybody. Time to wait for the order is quick

I was 'in the mood for a diner', and this is exactly what I got. I ordered my favorite old fashioned turkey dinner and was very satisfied, thank you very much. It's hard to find a decent diner close to the Seattle-city limits these days, and when one does, it's always a true find. The services was friendly, if not incredibly efficient (that's OK - I was in no hurry). Would definitely recommend for diner lovers if you are in the neighborhood. read more

Excellent service and food. Great place for weekend brunch. Loved the spinach frittata. Ordered the small and it was still huge. You get plenty of food. If you're north of U Dist and a hungry college student or family with kids, this is a really good spot for a weekend breakfast. Breakfast items are $9-15, but well worth it. read more

This place is my go-to spot for breakfast. Every single dish I've had here has been absolutely flawless. They have the best chicken fried steak that I have ever had in my life. I've been here dozens of times, and never ordered anything other than breakfast, that's how good it is. My wife has ordered several items from the lunch and dinner menu and she has loved those as well. The staff is so friendly, they remembered us after the 2nd time we were there, and every time I order take out, they ask me about my family when I pick up the food. This place has everything you could ask for in a restaurant, the food is delicious, the prices are good and the service is flawless. Give Flo-Anna's a try, and you will not be disappointed. read more

Dirt and mildew stench the moment you walk in the door. It literally smells and looks like 1975 in here. Booths are ripped up and duct taped. Menu was standard fare but wayyyyy overpriced and tasted like I heated up a frozen entre from the grocery store. Don't waste any money here seriously. There are at least two other much better diners in shoreline. read more

mmmmm. me likem' Floanna's. I showed my best friend Ryan this place years ago.... read more
