EXCEPTIONAL FOOD AND PRICE. A true classic diner, I felt like I was in Grease.. the waitress was amazing & I highly recommend hot sausage & pepper/onions on an omelette. Met the owner & he was working on the grill, it was nice to see. Extremely friendly. This is the diner I’d recommend to everything. The diner was extremely clean.

The restaurant is a throwback to the 1960s. It’s a retro diner with a retro theme, and they still use paper checks for their bills.
The service is exceptional, and so is the food. I had a veggie omelet and toast, and it was good. It was on par with every other restaurant that has said less and toast.
There’s limited parking in the front, but you could drive around back. There’s plenty of parking in the back.

A FOODIE’S FIND OF A VERY PLEASANT FAMILY-RUN DINER, a testimonial that the American Diner tradition is alive and well .
The place has a terrific ambiance, throwback to the 1960s. It’s very well lit with natural light. It looks so very clean…. It looks very popular to locals, to not young and old .
It’s a 6 to 2 operation, suggesting a successful family business .
The menu is both breakfast and lunch burgers/sandwiches, a handful of salads. The prices are very very affordable.
The menu suggests this is a place specializing in Omelettes. We had the Mushrooms Cheese and Valliant’s Omelettes….simple to look at, but a surprising moist and flavorful centers where the egg is king . They were surprisingly satisfying that literally breaks the fast.
Coffee was strong and fresh.
Service is outstanding.
Very highly recommended

This was a pretty good diner. I liked the front row seats near the griddle, it felt like “hibachi breakfast” at times. (I realize other places let you do this as well, but it felt more amplified here.)
The service was a bit chaotic and disorganized at times, but what small business isn’t experiencing that right now? Either way, the sightly shortstaffed employees were all very kind. Everything was kept pretty clean and the coffee was better than the average diner.
The food was very good. They have a full spectrum of ingredients, including my beloved spinach. My wife and I both ordered omelettes.
Some people prefer zero brown on their eggs; they say that brown spots means the eggs are burnt from being cooked too fast. Brown on eggs is not a deal breaker for me, but I do generally seek out diners that cook fluffy omelettes without any brown spots. Valliant’s cook their eggs too quickly, and while I loved every bite, it would have been that much better if they were cooked a little bit slower.
Overall, this is still a five star recommendation. Check them out if you are in the area.

I’m a diner / cafeteria girl at heart, so this place was right up my alley. I love sitting at a counter and watching a short order cook do their thing like they’re dancing, amazing to watch. Our waitress was the perfect combination of sassy and great at her job. Super friendly. And yes we did have Apple Pie for dessert after breakfast, and glad we did to, it was so delicious! Love chunky potato ‘hash browns’. Parking can be tricky, so if you drive a land yacht, maybe not that day. I can see why this place has stood the rest of time, will definitely go back!!

What a hidden gem of nostalgia! The throwback decor in Valliant’s Diner is a priceless treat! This diner is definitely retro, old school, blast from the past! Many vintage eye appealing photos on display. Parking can be a challenge with limited and tight parking spaces. The staff were very friendly down home staff! The food was nothing spectacular but still a decent breakfast for a reasonable price. The menu is an ala carte type menu. Pick and choose as you desire to build your plate. I love the paper guest checks that are still used! I definitely think this diner is worth checking out!

Finally got to stop at this classic diner on a Saturday morning…and just barely. By just barely, I mean that I dropped my family off and had to circle around the roads near the restaurant twice before finally getting a parking spot after almost giving up. That says something to the local popularity, especially considering this is a stones throw from two other popular area diners.
Unsurprisingly, the place was packed, and my near 3 year old was having a bad go of it, so waiting was hard on him. One of the waitresses was kind enough to combine two different two top tables into one so we could be seated quicker, which was very thoughtful. I can’t say my little boy made it a ton easier from there ( ♂️), but we did out best for that morning.
I had the BELT (Bacon, Egg, Lettuce Tomato), which definitely felt like a diner throwback I’m an enjoyable way. My wife enjoyed her omelette and my daughter raved about her Sausage Egg and Cheese sandwich. Overall, a very nice experience, even given the stressor of a younger child. So be prepared to potentially wait to be seated (and maybe park), and expect a decent wait for your food since they are cooking from scratch and in obvious large quantity, especially for the overall diner size. But with patience in mind, this is definitely a worthwhile and funky retro spot to enjoy a meal.

One of the coolest diners I’ve been to! I just absolutely love all the vintage decor and the colorful atmosphere and some good food. This is a definite hidden gem in Pittsburgh that I would recommend to everyone.
