Valliant's Diner is a local restaurant that serves simple, delicious breakfasts and lunches. During my visit, the restaurant was clean, prices were low, and the waitress was prompt and courteous. My husband and I enjoyed our sandwich, potatoes, omelet, bacon, and orange juices.

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.

First time eating here in probably 10 years. It hasn’t changed a bit! My BLT and home fries tasted just as I remembered. We also got a gyro omelet. Also delicious. You can watch the owner make the food behind the counter on the griddle. Service can be slow because they’re busy and have few people working but it’s with the wait to eat at this historic and uniquely Pittsburgh diner. Parking can also be a challenge because the lot is small.

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.

We tried the blueberry pancakes, French toast, and home fries and it was incredibly delicious. All of it! Thank you for great service even on a busy morning!!! :)

✴️ Updated August 16th, 2023 Take a walk back in time. Ty 888K views! Valliant's is a retro 🍽️ 50s diner with nostalgia on every wall you see and and smiles from the staff. I got the steak'n eggs. Asked for it medium. The other person with me asked for it rare. Both steaks done exactly right. The eggs were done perfectly over easy too. My current top picks for breakfast are Gino's Petit Cafe, Harmarville DeLuca's in the Strip A nod to Cracker Barrell If you happen to be out this way, I would say give this and try and see if you like. The food was definitely cooked well. Added more pics.

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😎😎😎

We’re in town for Thanksgiving and searched for a diner nearby. We came here by chance and it did not disappoint. Delicious food, friendly service and very well priced.

Valliant's Diner offers a comfortable atmosphere with its quaint and family-run setting. It was nice to see Gerri, the original owner's son, working the grill, adding a personal touch to the place. The menu is simple but well-executed, focusing on breakfast staples like eggs, omelets, and griddle items. I opted for the Meat Lover's Omelet and was not disappointed; the cook skillfully prepared it. Accompanying my omelet with wheat toast rounded out a satisfying meal. The staff was notably friendly, and the clientele seemed mostly local—a positive sign for any diner. Overall, my experience was good. Valliant's Diner is a solid choice if you're in the area and looking for a reliable breakfast spot.

I would have given Valliant's Diner a better rating but after waiting about 10 minutes to even be acknowledged I was told by the waitress that "she didn't see us sitting there" though she walked past us three times. The food was really good, we ordered their omlet special but it took over 45 minutes to get our food. Unfortunately it was not a nice experience and even though our meals were very good I don't think I'll ever go back.

First time at this diner. This is definitely one of the best diners I’ve ever been to. The waitress was excellent with her service. Very polite, attentive and pleasant. I had the blueberry french toast special. Very tasty and made perfectly. The home style potatoes were excellent. Great coffee and an old school atmosphere. Everything is fresh and you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend this diner as you will want to be coming back very often.

This place takes you back to the 50-60's era with their comfy classic diner design. The food was tasty and not greasy at all; which is a huge plus. The breakfast potatoes could have been seasoned a little bit more however the bacon, eggs and French Toast were made to perfection! The parking is a little tough, I advised you to use the Evergreen Road entrance and park behind the diner for ease of access. Must check this place out for sure!

The food is delicious!! Atmosphere is friendly and it makes you feel at home. Eat n park , Dennys, etc can't touch this place. Nothing better than enjoying a great meal with family and freinds in a place that makes feel like you belong.

The best thing about this restaurant is how CLEAN it’s kept. Each day after closing you will see all the chairs off the floor so the floor can be cleaned totally. EVERYDAY !! The food is excellent and the prices are low !!

These are the best and friendliest people (people, not just staff/owners). Kind and caring service. Delicious and excellent food. All at a reasonable price. If you want a home cooked meal without the hassle, Valiant's is the place for you.

Stopped in yesterday with my boyfriend service was horrible. we ordered and waited but once we got our food the food was cooked incorrectly. not once after our food hit the table did our server or anyone else ask us how the meal was until we checked out. the meal was supposed to be a Medium cooked steak and scrambled eggs. the steak was well done and was not eaten. When we checked out my boyfriend said my steak was well done. the lady behind the counter said well was it good and he said No, I asked for medium and it was well done. She then said oh okay well 33.82 or what ever the change was. made us pay for something we did not eat nor checked on us. now we have come in about 3 ike's and never had a bad experience. we will never be back. clearly they don't care about service or how peoples food is cooked. Also our server didn't even serve us a food as she was sitting on her behind (a$$) next to her boyfriend eating. never checked on us after taking our orders.

I really enjoyed being in this cute diner! As soon as you step in, it feels like you are going back in time. The atmosphere was great, my server was really kind and attentive. The service was quick! It was clean too, especially for a diner. I think the food was a little greasy, but that tends to be the case with a diner.

Very busy local diner. Great food. Fast service. VERY reasonable prices. Was driving through and stopped here. I highly recommended stopping here if you’re looking for a family breakfast.
