    One of the few places open late in Herndon. Good set of food choices and baked goods. Service can be a bit variable, but that's par for the course these days. Price is moderate (dinner is usually around $18-20 range). If you're working late, it's tge go to place.

    I've been coming here for the last 20 years. The best corned beef hash I've ever eaten. Today was one of the days they run out of them. So tried different items. Didn't disappoint. Island hopper appetizer so we could sample different Greek dishes. Gyro platter with fries and Tex mix. They were delicious. And had white chocolate raspberry cake. Yum!!

    Stopped by here on a Saturday morning with a friend of mine for some breakfast as we've always past by this pace but never went in. Well, this was our chance and from our experience, it was good. The Food: I went with the "Cajun Eggs Benedict" for my meal. Two eggs benedicts with some andouille sausage, and some hash on the side. Eggs were cooked nicely with a runny yolk, muffins were soft. However, there were barely any sausages in my meal. And, the portions for everything was small. It was odd because for about $16, I thought I'd get something a little more fulfilling. I probably won't be getting the benedict again. Maybe something else next time, if I find myself back here. The Service: Service was good! For it being a Saturday morning, the restaurant was decently busy and we didn't have to wait log for a table. Staff were attentive and friendly. The Atmosphere: Very spacious restaurant with plenty of tables to sit at. Also, it looked pretty clean from what I saw around me. Overall, a 4/5. Food was good, better than some diners in the area. Just a little small on the portions for me.

    Where do you go for a fantastic and scrumptious meal, great service, amazing portions, a beautiful and comfortable setting, that genuine and home Greek hospitality and love 258 miles south of NYC ? It's the gorgeous Amphora Diner in Herndon, Virginia. The entrance is so nice. There is a warmth that hits you the second you enter. The greeting from the hostess and not one but three different wait staff was very cordial. The presentation of the menu booklet is just stunning. It is classy. I am so used to the old, long plastic 8 by 14 pages. My buddy Gerry opted for the Caribbean salad with grilled chicken added and I ordered the glazed salmon salad with this wonderful citrus dressing. Both were so fresh, bursting with flavor; the fresh mango on the Caribbean salad was simply outstanding. The salmon was grilled perfectly and the chick peas added a nice taste to the salad. The hot tea was served in this beautiful flask( the hot water that is) and our great server Alan brought me two tea bags to start with and replenished the hot water pronto. He was just great - friendly, cool, funny and on the ball. The breakfast items also looked very appetizing. I had heard a lot about their stellar bakery. Next time! The owner Steve made it a point to come by and say hello and check up on us. Amphora Diner is open daily from 7 am to midnight and their bakery is also in Herndon about 2 miles away on Sunset Park Drive. This was a fantastic meal and experience .
