Description
Known as the Tastee 29 Diner for some years, the 29 Diner has returned to its original name. The stainless steel and glass brick diner was set on its foundations in 1947. Although it is a Registered Historic Landmark, the original jukebox was replaced with a CD player system in the 1990s when the current owners took over.

Authentic roadside diner cuisine from an area classic
There aren't many places like the 29 Tastee Diner left anymore. This roadside gem sits on Route 29 in Fairfax and has everything you'd want in a diner: greasy food, beaten up menus, low prices (a couple can easily come away from a meal spending just over $10), local characters, and a jukebox (though it is a CD jukebox these days).
Though the portions are sometimes a bit small, the 29 Tastee Diner is a piece of Americana worth visiting. Considering the overdevelopment and general strip-mall nature of Fairfax, it's nice to see a place like this still around and doing w [20 Dec 1999 17:19:10]

The Metro Area's Best Diner
If WashingtonsTopTen.com had a Top Ten Diner category the 29 Diner would be number one. We love this bit of Americana tucked away in Fairfax. [29 Aug 2002 17:06:38]

Don't judge a book by its cover
While many of my friends frequent IHOP, I remain a fan of 29 Diner. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but true to the old adage, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
Although their menu might not be as large or comprehensive, I enjoy the atmosphere present at the Diner. It feels good to get away from the hectic Fairfax county life and sit down for a good, filling meal.
29 Diner remains a refreshing alternative in my mind for great breakfast food. [02 Jul 2003 18:35:18]
