Nice little old school diner.... 1950's / 60's themes on the walls, think Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Humphrey, Bogart, the Beatles, that era Classic rock playing at a enjoyable, volume in the background..... it's been a long time since I've heard slow ride by Foghat Service was friendly and attentive Food was good! read more

Sabina's Diner and Ice Cream Shop - Seating area - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hernando, Florida

Here we go again... another backwards business stuck in the 50's that refuses to accommodate vegetarians. Unless you want extra meat they can't help you. I asked if they could take the blt and just make it lettuce tomatoes and cheese and was told no, our chef doesn't change the menu. There is no one in here so they choose to lose business over creating a cheaper than anything on their menu sandwich and could still happily charge me full price. Make it make sense and wake up, it's 2024 accommodate people. I didn't ask for anything that wasn't already on the menu. As far as the ambience it's a dirty diner with tacky decor all over. They also boast of military support, next time try making a veteran a cheese sandwich and get over yourself. read more

Fantastic service, great food, value priced. I keep coming back. If you live in or are traveling through Hernando FL,you must stop here.

Great scrapple and ice cream. I like the veteran themed decorations as well as the rock and roll nostalgia.

Friendly diner with vintage decor and memorabilia. They have great homemade soup. We had the Greek omelette, which was perfect! A great stop on the Withlacoochee trail for breakfast or lunch. read more

As I was leading my local Harley Riders Group for a breakfast ride, I found out that if you get up early - forget the worm, you get eggs, bacon, biscuits & gravy, coffee and a lot more! Food was great, service top-notch and fun atmosphere. read more

We had great food and could tell this was a favorite hang out in the area. I had an omelette with feta cheese, toasted English muffin, and delicious home fries with onions. My friend enjoyed her food too including the cheese grits. The waitress was sweet and worked fast. She was the only one there. She had a good rapport with others as they called her by name. Overall great breakfast place. read more

Our ice cream was old, stale and sludgy. Gross. The staff was very nice. We sat outside. It was nice. The decor is excellent (for my taste) older ice cream shop feel. I loved it. Because the ice cream was so bad, we won't be back. read more

Very cute diner with an old time feel. The staff is wonderful and food definitely gas a diner feel.

This is a great local restaurant, with awesome food and low prices!! We've come here twice this week . They make you feel welcome!! Our waitress, Regine, is wonderful!! Come here!!!! read more

This was my first time eating at Sabina's. The staff is attentive and pleasant. The food was great. I couldn't ask for a better experience. read more

Sabina's Diner and Ice Cream Shop - a plate of food - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hernando, Florida

Coming from the northeast I've been brought up in diners... the only positive thing I can say is the three stars was for the waitress although I was concerned about her leaning over us with no mask... food was marginal , cleanliness was an issue, food came out haphazardly, (I man came in 20 minutes after us and got his food before us) and an excessively long wait for few people in there...my husband's fish was an inordinately small portion for the price. Won't make it a habit .. tried to find the silver lining in wasting time and money here: happy to support a mom and pop and especially during lean times. read more

Have never gotten a bad thing from Sabinas! Big breakfasts are amazing and the burgers are incredible. Kiddos love the sundaes and shakes. Best French fries in town. Also mimosas and bloody Mary's to compliment your breakfast. Owner and daughters make you feel like family. Our favorite go to place in town. read more

Best place for cyclists to eat on the north part of the Withlacoochee State Trail. We had some great homemade soup and a Grouper Reuben sandwich! read more

I have tried quite a few restaurant/diners since moving here in October. I had not even found a halfway decent restaurant yet. All over priced and was just OK. Today I tried Sabina's and their food was excellent. Cooked perfect. If you want some good food I suggest going there. Nothing fancy just GOOD home cooked meals. read more

I had just ordered from here and all I can say is wow. My order was totally wrong from the wrong side to the bland ground beef in the burger. Their was zero flavor beyond the large amount of grease which allows me to assume the beef is frozen. I ordered a garden bacon burger which comes with the standard lettuce, tomato, bacon etc which it had none of it only a single slice of cheese. I ended up eating the wrong side and throwing the majority of the burger away. read more

Great breakfast and excellent service. Lots of trivia from the 60's and 70's all around to enjoy.

I don't go to very many diners, but this one was pretty good. Only like 2 other people in the restaurant, so service was pretty snappy. We all got breakfast so I can't speak for their lunch/diner but my plate was bomb (see picture). Everything was delicious and cooked perfect. The only reason I didn't give 5 was because my buddies weren't as happy as I was. Overall a great little dive while traveling through the state. Everyone can get what they want and the service is great. read more

Stopped by this Diner for the first time a couple of days ago for lunch. Definitely will not go back for a 2nd time. Food was barely okay. Establishment was less than desirable. Service not good either. Upon entry we were informed to sit wherever we liked, what a joke!!! The amount of seating inside is less than 15-20 tables and/or booths as it is, but only 2-3 tables were cleaned off of dirty dishes from previous customers. Would've sat outside if it wasn't so hot, at least most of the tables outside were clean. We were seconds from leaving as we waited over 5 minutes for a server to stop by our table, and it was not busy either. There were more empty dirty tables than occupied tables at that time. This was the worst Diner experience ever!!! read more

Delicious and employees were very friendly and with a smile on their faces. Which in reality is hard to find such employees on early morning hours. I ordered biscuits and gravy as well as my girlfriend did and we enjoyed it. A comfortable place and is not loud at all. Every costumer were respectful for others privacy for not being loud. I would recommend this place for any occasion, friendly meet ups or family gathering. This is one of the a must place to check it out read more

Sabina's Diner and Ice Cream Shop - Biscuit and gravy with egg and sausage - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Hernando, Florida

So my husband and I went to Sabina's for breakfast and it was ok, our server told us they had great Cuban sandwiches. So today we ordered one to share. It was horrible, I actually spit it out. Spit it out!!! To do scribe the taste thing was like eating a band-aid. It tasted like what a band-aid smells like (No I have never eaten one) but it was gross. We literally threw it out the window. $15 out the window. Not going back. Which is a shame, I love supporting local businesses. read more

We love their breakfast. Always fresh quality food. It's delicious. Wish we would've tried them out sooner.

What a dump. When the specials board is a jumble of misspelled words, you know they don't give a hoot. My husband and I noted the general dirtiness and disarray of the place and opted out. The staff was surly and food on diner's plates looked greasy and unappetizing. Wouldn't touch this place with a 10 foot pole. read more

Wow what can I say, weak coffee no creamer ( milk or powdered) ...nothing came out right. Scrambled eggs with cheese came out runny, more like a folded over eggs. Response from kitchen was what do you want me to do with your eggs? Well maybe scramble them and cook them? Was what I was thinking. Other issues but really difficult n't want to go on. Canceled the rest of our order paid for what we had and left. Shame, waitress was pleasant and efficient. read more

I love that this place is a diner theme. They have a neat screened in front porch where u can eat and watch the traffic. They have a 50's kitsch theme going on and 50's music plays. When you first walk in it smells awful! Mildew and bleach! Ecckk.. I ordered the grilled cheese and asked for tomato. Ugh.. the worst grilled cheese ever. They put 1 tomato slice in the sandwich with a pickle on the side. This should be on a kids menu. The bread was a cheap Wonder white bread and I swear Govt. cheese! I know diner sandwiches and that was not one at all. My boyfriend got the eggsalad sandwich with fries and coleslaw. All was homemade..(dont know about fries though) the sandwich came with lettuce and a tomato. The coleslaw was divine he said! The service was fantastic and we were there at 2p so lunch crowd was gone. I gave it 3 stars because of my sad meal and smell of the place. I think that they have wayyyyy too much on menu and that is why my meal failed. Too many options! I included photos on here as well. They also serve alcohol! read more

Delicious food with extremely good prices!! Visiting from Washington state and wish we had something like this there!! Thank you Regine for your exceptional service!! read more

THIS IS A MUST IF YOU LIKE GREAT FOOD WITH A FRIENDLY STAFF!! I will be back frequently! ANYWAY, Just tried this little jewel that I pass by all the time. Had the Eggs Benedict and truthfully I am extremely impressed. The food was excellent. The employees, servers cooks and well everyone is absolutely wonderfully friendly and enjoyable. It's like being in a friends kitchen having breakfast (in my case) or lunch etc. They are all so friendly, funny and like I was a friend who stopped by to eat. Do yourself a favor and and hit this place up! read more

Fried mushrooms were terrible we ask can we switch them out for something else cause we didn't like them and the boss comes out and starts being rude telling us they can't cook anything else for us and we have to pay , waitress was rude , so was the owner! read more

Love this place. Friendly people. Amazing home cooked food. Great prices Try eggs Benedict Florentine. YUM!! We will be back!! read more

Probably the worst breakfast I ever had. I ordered the western omelet. Huge greasy chunks of onion and bell pepper. Way too much onion with tiny pieces of ham. The home fries tasted like they were sitting in grease all morning and very over cooked. She uses American cheese which was disgusting. I'll never go back. I literally couldn't eat it. The sweet waitress asked me if I wanted a box. lol. no. Also, there was only one waitress for the whole place. We waited forever. Felt really nauseated on the way home. Darn. I really wanted to like it. read more

Great food and Old Dinner atmosphere with attentive staff. Had a home made burger and it was delicious. Desert was a cherry pie a la mode. For those riding the Florida bike trail, it's a perfect stop to make. It's around 50 feet from the trail. In a world of corporate restaurants, Places like these are hard to come by. read more

Breakfast omelet was excellent, as was the friendly service! Clean tables and very interesting decor. Books and things to glance thru, but not for long. Food service was fast. Very relaxing, comfortable, morning with coffee! read more

We were just passing through town looking for a small mom and pop place for lunch. The service was good but the food was horrible. The fries tasted like they were on their fourth time being re-heated, even the kids didn't like them. Don't waste your time stopping here. read more

Simply put; the very best. Sabina and Regine have eclectic tastes when it comes to creating dishes and everything is carefully and beautifully prepared. The owners and staff are very nice indeed. The customers? What a great crowd they are! Be prepared for great food and a great time! Prices are remarkably inexpensive considering the high quality and huge servings. Check 'em out! read more

I won't lie, the first time we went to Sabina's the food was rather greasy but still edible. Service was great, but the food wasn't as good as we expected because of the grease. They must've had a spill lol. We gave the place a second chance a few years later and didn't regret it- the burgers were large and delicious, service was good as always, and the food quality was improved and reasonably priced. Friendly atmosphere, nice decor inside. Definitely will be returning! read more

My husband and I went here for breakfast on our way through town. It's really a cute little diner with lots of personality, and the food was simple and very tasty. read more

I had a burger and fries. The burger was the type you could toss into the microwave: bland, and lukewarm. The waitress asked me how I wanted it done, and that made me believe it'd be handmade, or at least seasoned, but don't be fooled. The wait time was probably for the fries-they were good, but that was it. The ice cream is also the brand that you can get from any gas station-in other words not home made. I would never eat here again. read more
