    Perfect diner for a simple, homemade breakfast. Home fries were crunchy outside, poached eggs were awesome. Cozy, well priced and delicious.

    My husband and I have lived within 2 blocks of Sandy's for the past three years, and this is a favorite of ours. It's a long, family-run, diner-style place with lovely friendly owners. Food is your standard fare with a Greek twist: cheap, quick, delicious, and sometimes greasy (in a good way). There's a lot of good food to be found in this city, but very few places as unique, charming, and reliable as this.

    I absolutely love this place. No frills mom & pop diner. Mom takes your order and her husband cooks it. It doesn't get more mom & pop than that. Simple food by simple people at super simple prices. Portion sizes are absolutely perfect. This hole in the wall diner is going to be one of my new regular hangouts. Come here with a few friends or all by yourself. Either way, you'll feel at home.

    Came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning and saw toward the back dining area as it was a little busier up front. Seems like a spot with a lot of regulars from the neighborhood, and everyone who worked here seemed very friendly! We had some breakfast sandwiches that were pretty good, nothing special, but good nonetheless. Plus, the prices will be hard to beat, especially in this area. I will definitely be back to grab a quick and cheap bite in the near future.

    I stumbled upon this little place last sunday with my boyfriend around brunch time. The food was pretty cheap and it tasted pretty awesome. I really liked that it felt so home owned and small town in a big city. I might have found a new place to add to the weekend brunch spots.

    3 stars for the food, 5 stars for the cook who graciously walked my bacon egg and cheese over to 17th and Lombard when I had a vicious hangover. Apparently the whole city shuts down on Labor Day, since my two breakfast go to's, Grillmaster and Pinky's were closed. I called Sandy's in a desperate attempt to obtain bacon without leaving my apartment, and they agreed to deliver even though it's a pretty far walk. My bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel and side of home fries came to $9.50 which isn't terrible, but also isn't cheap. The sandwich was decent but the bagel was terrible - overly chewy and tasteless. The home fries had that nice crisp on the outside but could have benefited from some onions or seasoning. I might go again if I was close by, but I don't think I would go out of my way.

    This little diner off the Schuykill river trail is the perfect little diner for a quick homemade lunch or a yummy breakfast seven days a week. Ran by a lovely older Greek couple they take the same loving care in preparing the meals as they would their grandchildren. I have seen her packaging up homemade rice pudding he ladled out from a large pot, briefly ribbing him when the portions seemed inconsistent. The food is good, especially for diner fare, and the ingredients taste fresh. The potato salad is what picnics are made of and they advertise daily specials on the menu board outside. They do have early hours, on average they are open 7a-4p but it's worth finding a window of time to slip in and enjoy the next closest thing to your Mom's cooking (granted she's a good cook!).

    If you are looking for a greasy spoon with a Greek flair, this is the place! Classic American breakfasts for cheap and great Greek food like Baklava.

    Alright, I'll admit right off the bat, I probably have some neighborhood bias here. I can literally throw a stone from my window and hit this place (not that I've tried). They serve quality renditions of diner standards. Don't go expecting some noveau Greek-American cuisine. Nope. Just burgers, hoagies, club sandwiches, great greasy-spoon breakfast, and as Jamie S. points out, a small selection of Greek food. Not only is the food always on target, the staff is very friendly--I've never walked in and not caught a smile. The ambiance is cozy. By that, I mean you feel right at home dining by yourself with a book at lunch time, but also that you probably won't fit more than 4 people in one of their 5 or 6 larger booths. The rest of the booths are 2 seaters, and they have the classic "diner" bar setup for singles.

    Lots of tasty diner food for cheap prices in a quiet part of town... I say I love me my Sandy's! I stumbled upon this place a few times, mostly when I'm out running, then I would unfortunately forget about when I got home. Then it popped into my head one day for a breakfast place, and I am so glad it did! Tasty omelets, delicious breakfast sandwiches and always a full mug of coffee. Great place for a rainy Saturday breakfast or quick cup of coffee. The staff are friendly, and the small setting is ideal for keeping the charm in this place. Try to remember Sandy's for some breakfast!

    A nice little throwback diner-style cafe full of neighbors and locals. Tried the Greek omelet and chocolate pancakes. Everything was tasty, cheap, and served by a pleasant staff. No fine cuisine, but more power to them for doing so well as a small business in such a competitive food city.

    I beg to differ with anybody who says there's no greatness at Sandy's. In the field of diners, it's five stars. Halfway through a walk from Spruce Hill to Center City, my lunch companion and I happened across Sandy's. We were in search of a cheap lunch and a cool place to sit for a little while during the June heat wave. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger. I have ordered a burger almost everywhere at one time or another because it is a safe and reliable lunch that hardly anybody can screw up. Sandy's not only didn't screw it up, but served the best bacon cheeseburger I have ever had placed before me. Seriously. I've paid twice the price for a cheeseburger at National Mechanics that was only half as good. You aren't going to be impressed by the decor, but it's a diner, folks. C'mon. The waitress smiles pleasantly and makes you feel welcome. I wouldn't hesitate to stop in again if I was in the neighborhood. And if I was particularly in the mood for a bacon cheeseburger, I'd make a special trip.

    Finally tried this local spot. I think I'll be here once a week from now on. Great diner atmosphere, real throwback...no pretense, just straight forward home cooked breakfast. Had the Hungry Man--2 poached eggs, perfectly cooked, 2 pancakes just right, side of rye toast, and home fries that were fresh, lightly browned and delish. Coffee with refills included, side of crispy bacon extra. Nicest, friendliest service around. I'll be back, and looking forward to some souvlaki and a gyro!

    Sandy's is absolutely adorable. This spot is a sweet little breakfast & lunch Greek diner, equipped with reasonable prices, more than solid diner food, and a very friendly staff (which are each lucky finds in the area). I can't recommend Sandy's higher.

    Not a place where the waitress introduces herself and tells you the greens are organic, the eggs are from free range chickens, the potatoes are from this special little farm just outside of the city... yada yada yada, Since we moved in the neighborhood, came here a few times because the kitchen was not set up yet. It's an old fashion mom and pop dinner with good food and friendly services. I like their home fry the best. Not sure what he puts in it to make it so tasty. So far have not seen any hipster in there and hope it stay that way.

    Great neighborhood diner! Friendly atmosphere and the food is exactly what it should be: comforting (maybe a little bit greasy, but that's pretty standard at a diner), simple and well priced. Will definitely be going back!

  • Jeff W.

    2.5 stars I feel bad for the low rating because the people are so nice and it feels like going over to your grandmom's house to eat, but the place just isn't anything that I couldn't make myself. The food is cheap, and definitely a good place if you're in the neighborhood and too lazy to cook anything yourself. The baklava was the highlight of my meal, though it was a tad dry and probably had a bit too much spice in it. The rest of the menu is just standard fare: eggs, breakfast meats, burgers, etc and none of them are executed with any kind of greatness that would make me come back on a regular basis.

    I love Sandy place. Get omellet they are so good and made with love. Sometime Sandy forget you are there so I hit the table so she come back with more coffee. We talk sometime and I tell her about my daughter and she tell me about her son. I invite her for Christmas but she no come. The place is quiet and peaceful. I rat omelett and toast that make life beautiful. I get excited thinking about it!

    I love this little place... it's so convenient and affordable, and best of all, right next to my place. The service is friendly and attentive and the food is good. I especially like the Mousaka, yum!!!

    Even though it's cheap and the only breakfast place in a half mile radius, I would suggest walking to South Street to spend more $ for Ants Pants Cafe or Chestnut for Midtown Diner. Even better, you can make your own eggs and etc after going to Trader Joe's or in a pinch, Rite Aid. I've tried Sandy's 3-4 times due to proximity, but I've been repeatedly disappointed by overdone scrambled eggs and omelettes, and greasy underdone hash browns. Service is perfectly nice. Step up at the door- not wheelchair accessible. Also, Sandy's is slated to close and reopen with a liquor license and completely different full menu (ie dinner) concept mid 2008. (Interestingly and OT, the spellchecker thinks that "omelettes" is spelled wrong. Same for omelette.)

    Great spot to go to in Rittenhouse for a cheap and quick sit down breakfast. I have yet to try the tasty looking baklava that is always sitting on the counter but mark my words I will.

    I lived the diner atmosphere, prices, and home cooked food. I will definitely go back many times for the baklava.

    love this place! 4 instead of 5 because the size of the place and the menu isn't too exciting. but the veggie omelet is amazing! location is awesome and the people are so nice! it's nice to go for a stroll by the river after brunch. my sibilings always want to go back when they come in town!

  • P Y.

    Love love love this Greek diner mom and pop's cramp style! There's personality in this place that is missing in many places in Philly. Actually, Sandy's is like the ugly duckling of the neighborhood...it doesn't know how beautiful its uniqueness really is. The food is good but I go more to feel like I'm at a friend's home.

    Cheap eats here, and a cozy booth for one. Sandy is friendly, and breakfast is really cheap. But my Greek omelet had canned spinach, so for that there are only three stars.

  • Chrissy R.

    I love Sandy's. it's a classic diner with a real family atmosphere. They are really inexpensive here but it's always packed on Saturday and Sunday for breakfast. It's tiny and you may have to wait for a table but I think it's well worth it.

  • Kelly W.

    Sandy's is a good choice for those lazy mornings when you have no eggs left and don't want to walk to the store. This small diner flaunts no aesthetics but provides friendly service. Personally, I'd rather walk to the store and make my own eggs or french toast, but there are just those days that I simply can't do it. When that times comes for you, trust in Sandy for that pick-me-up coffee and eggs on Correlle.

  • Jessica N.

    Absolutely classic Greek diner. This is a great place to get a fairly inexpensive breakfast or brunch on the weekend. The space is tiny and narrow and there's always people in there, but you can sit and read the paper and relax if you want. There's nothing fancy about this place and that's just the way I like it. The number five special is my favorite, and I'm sticking to that.

  • James M.

    A classic Mom and Pop small diner - formica atmosphere on a neighborhood corner. Their greek background shows in the homemade deserts and a few of the excellent dishes, but the staples are good versions of hamburgers, sandwiches etc. Each time we go the proprietress smiles as though we'd returned from an expedition - she's truly one of the nice people, which of course makes the visit enjoyable.
