Custom Omelet

If you are looking for a place that has museum quality artwork, this is not your place. If you are looking for a place that serves one of a kind dishes and drinks, you will be disappointed. However, if you are looking for a no frills place (aka diner style) that serves good basic food at a reasonable price, this is a place for you. The portions are not huge but they are filling. Most of the patrons seem to be from Leisure World and the surrounding area and they are known and welcomed by the staff - think Cheers. The staff are attentive to your needs. The Mrs. and I went in for breakfast. She had the custom omelet (ham, cheddar cheese, onions and peppers), while I had the Western Omelet. Both came with home-fries and toast (wheat or white). Both were properly cooked and tasty. We also had coffee, which was a bit pricey ($4) but you could drink as much as your wanted. We paid by cash, as to avoid the 3% card fee. Overall, a good place if you are looking for a good solid meal.

Reuben Super Melt Lunch
Jasmine N.

I was randomly in the area and decided to meet a friend for a quick bite. I happened to stumble upon Nancy's. It's pretty small inside and I was told to sit anywhere. It's a no frills type of place. I was greeted immediately and ordered a coffee while I waited for my friend to arrive. To eat, I got the Reuben melt and my friend got the patty melt. We both really enjoyed our meals. The melts came with fries and a pickle. It was exactly what you'd want from a diner type place. They advertise many pies so we decided to share one for dessert. We got the lemon meringue. It was good but a little too sweet. Overall, we enjoyed everything and was surprised with how affordable it all was. I'd definitely stop by again if in the area.

a plate of eggs, bacon and pancakes

I wanted to try a local spot for breakfast instead of one of the national chains. The space is quaint and you seat yourself. There were two servers who were very nice. The food was ok. I wouldn't get the French toast again (a bit bland), but my dining companion enjoyed their waffle. I would go here if I was in the area and wanted a quick bite, but I definitely wouldn't go out of my way to go here. Perhaps lunch is better.

Slice of bread with Corned Beef

Absolutely no idea what this is, i ordered a reuben and when I got home discovered 2 floppy pieces of wholewheat with Corned Beef between them, nothing else, literally nothing else .....

Vegetable omelet with crispy home fries
Amy S.

It's been awhile since we have been here. It was a quiet day here. The service was wonderful. The food was delicious. I got the good old stand by of veggie omelet and crispy home fries. The omelet was perfectly cooked and home fries were actually crispy. I asked for crispy home fries at a lot of places but always disappointed but not here. I will definitely return soon.

DD's omelet (spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions, green peppers, and feta cheese) with home fries.
Barbara D.

Nancy's was everything I hoped for in a diner. I have no idea what all of the 1 and 2 start reviews are about. The coffee was hot and delicious and the creamers are real half and half versus non-dairy coffee whitener. The omelet was made with fresh ingredients and was hot and delicious. The home fries were extra crispy just like I ordered and yummy. My friend had the Eggs Dillon which was scrumptious. The wait staff was prompt, friendly, and delivered our order quickly!! If I lived in the area, I would definitely come back!!

a bagel with onions and olives
Santi G.

Overpriced and not fresh. Ordered corned beef hash (not fully cooked) with eggs and home fries. My girl had a lox bagel, bagel looked like from Shoppers with no flavor on salmon, needless to say the onion had the outer skin

I've been here a few times & really love this place! It does get pretty busy but I've never had to…read morewait long for a table (for two). I love ordering the vegan hash (veggie hash w no egg) & the drinks are pretty good , but definitely over priced. The service is always great & I love supporting this business. Parking can be a little tricky on the weekends, but street parking is free on Sundays. Love the decor, I just wish the bathrooms were better kept. Mimosas -- 7/10 overpriced Cab Calloway -- 7/10 Seafood grits -- 9/10 has a little spice to it! Veggie Hash -- 10/10 super filling Veggie burger -- 8/10

I was told this charge does not go to the waiter but is instead shared with other staff (busser, host, etc.), and that customers are expected to leave an additional tip for the server. I initially left a 20% tip because I did not notice the automatic 18% service charge. To make matters worse, I was initially given the wrong receipt, which added to the confusion. When I realized the service charge had already been included and asked for the extra tip to be removed, the waiter told me he does not receive any portion of the 18% charge. I asked whether the expectation was for customers to leave a total of 38%, and I was told that is how it works at this restaurant and in Washington DC. I found the billing and tipping process confusing and misleading. I won't be back.

Tastee Diner is a historical landmark, no frills, no latees, just good old-fashioned comfort food…read more We were seated in April's section, and she was an absolute treat! She's funny, attentive, and gives honest food recommendations if you're undecided on the menu. She's also incredibly talented -- we watched her balance six cups of coffee to another table without using a tray! On our first visit, a Saturday morning, we ordered the blueberry pancakes (I love when the blueberries are cooked into the pancakes instead of just sprinkled on top), scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, turkey bacon, potatoes with onions, and coffee. Everything was affordable and delicious, so much so that we came back two days later. On our second visit, a Monday, we asked to be seated in April's section! She actually remembered us because we shared the potatoes the first time and she even asked if we wanted to share them again (yes, please... and she brought two small plates!). This time we had scrambled eggs, potatoes with onions, turkey sausage, turkey bacon, toast, and a biscuit. We even dropped some quarters into the tabletop jukebox for the full diner experience. I'd definitely visit again and have already recommended it to relatives who live in the area!

Some places are "institutions" because they have served a community with great food for decades…read more Other places are institutions just because they're old and never bothered to renovate and as a result have become curiosities, like a museum exhibit -- a window into a bygone era. Tastee Diner is solidly in the latter category. The food is not particularly good, and not particularly cheap. It's just a very, very old room. Do yourself a favor. Step in, take in the ambiance, and then go have an actually good meal at one of the many other good restaurants within a few blocks of here!

We originally…read moremet at a strategic planning event last year and decided this was the ideal place to reconnect over coffee--and it did not disappoint. The service was warm, friendly, and attentive, making it easy to settle in and enjoy a great conversation. While we didn't eat much this visit, the menu is incredibly robust and tempting enough that we've already decided to come back next month for our next check-in. Another huge plus: convenient parking nearby and easy access to the Metro, which makes meeting up here simple and stress-free. Java Nation strikes a great balance between a welcoming café and a productive meeting spot. Whether you're grabbing coffee, planning your next move, or just enjoying the neighborhood vibe, this is a solid go-to.

Yet, they have the gall to program their payment for a tip starting at 18% on top of the additional fee for using their credit card payment. The staff working on Sunday acts like you're bothering her when you're trying to place an order or ask her anything. It is really unfortunate because the Key Lime Pie and coffee taste decent but not sure if the food is good enough to compensate for the crappy attitude. Please consider hiring people who actually enjoy providing customer service. Their steak burrito was right up their with anything in the frozen food section. Banana loaf was dry, otherwise would be good when fresh. For faster and much more friendly service, stick with Starbucks. And if you still prefer their coffee, make sure you taste it before walking out so you don't just pay $1+tip+fee for syrup they forget to add. The service at the dining section is friendlier but slow as molasses on the weekend.
