I need a good breakfast late Saturday morning after an early Christmas Shop. I remember a friend saying he thought Sparta might be affiliated with the "Farmers Cafe" out in Carlton. I love that place so I thought I'd try Sparta. It did not disappoint!! I ordered the "Sparta Skillet". That's hash browns on the bottom of the skillet then bits of ham, bacon, sausage links cut into small chunks, then shredded Cheese then topped with sausage gravy then Three eggs. It sounds like a lot because it is. It was delicious. I had toast and coffee too. Everything was perfect. The staff was friendly and attentive. My coffee cup was never empty neither was my water glass. The bill was about $11 + tip. Which seems high but there was a lot of food. The only negative was my own fault. I sat at the counter near the door and every time it opened there was a cold chill. But like I saw I'd that was my fault I chose my seat. Great breakfast I'll definitely go again.

Very typical family restaurant/coney island menu. The service, cleanliness and quality of the food is however, not typical - it is far above average for this type of restaurant. I went for lunch a few days after they opened. Being in restaurant operations for the past 13 years myself, I was impressed at how well the front-of-the-house worked together. They also had great attitudes and acted as true "brand ambassadors" by speaking highly about the food and the ownership. By the way, try one of the grinders. Great Job!Update!!I moved Sparta up to 5 stars as they continue to be consistently good at providing fresh food at an un-beatable value.

Excellent breakfast at this Woodhaven diner, with prompt and friendly service. Busy in the mornings on weekends. Great for carryout!

Good food, typical Coney Island. Service was polite and kind. My father and I go there often for breakfast, I get something different every time and there is nothing yet I do not enjoy. I recommend the western omelette, it is a large portion and you will leave happy!

I often order their BLT's with a salad for lunch. they are always fresh and come with a side of dill pickle slices. I've also had breakfast there which is delish also. They have a large seating area but they are only open till 3. Service is always great. Ladies are always smiling when I am in there and they are ALWAYS poppin' with customers in the mornings. Give it a try- you may just find you have a new spot to attend regularly as well.

Food was great. service was gruff. Server was rude. Never once smiled. Very Gruff! Eat here at least 2 times a month. Next time she is there I will leave.

Love Sparta !! Excellent service! Great food! And homey atmosphere! Wait staff is Excellent!!5

Our favorite breakfast place around. We normally order to go on Sunday's and sometimes pop in for dine-in on the occasional weekday. Pricing is super reasonable. The amount of food is perfect. We always leave with full belly's.

Average FoodMy visit was on a Monday morning around 8:00. The place was almost empty.A waitress told me to sit wherever I desired. There were two waitresses on hand. Staff was very attentive and all neat in appearance. It had been since the spring that I had been here last. The menu had a decent choice of items. I picked the #1 Mini Breakfast Special. This included: Two eggs, Choice of meat ( I chose Ham), Grits and toast. Coffee as usual is extra. Wait time between ordering delivery was minimal. Staff paid attention and refilled my coffee twice and inquired about my meal as well. My plate appeared full due to the nice arrangement of the items. The eggs came cooked as ordered though almost over well. Whites thoroughly cooked, yolks barely releasing any yellow/orange goodness. Grits were thick but not lumpy. My two pieces of ham were heated through and lightly browned from the grill. Fat had been trimmed away. The wheat toast was nicely buttered and had some remaining butter on the tops of each slice. Coffee was average. AtmosphereSparta Family Dining is located on West Road near the corner of Hall Road. There are an adequate number of tables and booths. Very plain inside with the absent tvs usually found in most places. I found the quietness nice.Noise LevelVery quiet due to amount of customers present (7 at time of visit).MealBreakfast Special: Early Bird Special.
