Maple Leaf Diner

This place is exactly what you'd expect in Canada - decent food and friendly staff. The place was busy but we were seated right away. We asked the ladies next to us what they ordered and one of them said the blueberry pancake was to be avoided - she had better elsewhere. I ordered the waffle trio with egg whites and bacon. The bacon was burnt to a crisp (just how I like it) and the eggs were cooked perfectly. My waffle was a bit cold but still edible. My partner told our waitress to pick something, so she brought back French toast, eggs and sausage. It was decent. Our waitress was super sweet. We went here because it was highly rated - it's definitely worth checking out if you're a tourist out of town, but it's not worth going back to again.

Maple Leaf Diner never disappoints! The food is always solid and delicious. The atmosphere is a relaxed diner vibe with quirky wall decorations that are so fun to scan while waiting for your food. I would highly recommend checking in on open table as the waits can get quite lengthy.

To say this place was great would be an understatement… This place was awesomely amazingly great. The food was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a large party without a reservation and they were able to seat all of us comfortably. Prices weren’t outrageous and the atmosphere was vintage but really cool. I would definitely recommend Maple leaf diner.

I can't recommend this place enough! My favorite go to for my birthday! The food is incredible and the staff is wonderful-I believe it was the manager- brought us cookies because he felt the food took too long to come out! My kids said that was the most Canadian thing ever❤️🤍❤️ 5 stars from this Canadian!

Y'ALL. I hadn't been to Maple Leaf Diner in ages and walking in Tuesday it was like it hadn't changed a bit! We were celebrating a friend's birthday, and we were seated pretty quickly after arriving, which is very cool for a table of 5. I ordered a half classic poutine, and the crispy chicken salad. The poutine was excellent! The gravy is delicious and the fries were well portioned. I LOVED the salad, had it with balsamic vinagraitte and I HOOFED that thing down y'all! Highly recommended, the atmosphere is loud yet inviting, just like Canada!

Was craving waffles and ended at Maple Leaf. All of the food items seem ✨dramatic✨ but in a good way. They definitely satisfied my waffle craving with a mix of savory and sweet (strawberries with the chicken and waffles? Surprisingly good.). Behind the waffles is their chicken fried steak covered in poutine. Also delicious. The staff was great. They were very kind and checked on us often. The decor of the restaurant was interesting. I can’t remember it distinctly, but I remember that I kept looking at the different things on the wall. All in all, great place for breakfast.

Being a Canadian I had to come and check this place out. The Poutine was on point and delicious. Everything that we have ever ordered has been delicious. The atmosphere is amazingly decorated with Canadian decor. The service is fast and friendly. This will be a go to spot every visit to Dallas.

The food was delicious here and I really enjoyed the Bloody Mary! I recommend the poutine, but it is very filling and the portions are huge, so you may want to share one order for several people as an appetizer like we did. The chicken and waffles are also 5 star here. Seriously a great experience.

Looked up a spot for breakfast/brunch and Maple leaf Dinner popped up. They did not disappoint. Service was great and was attended constantly and was seated quickly. Definitely recommend to stop by and catch a great meal.

I visited this spot for the first time today after driving by several times. I'm a huge fan of a nearby bakery (le reve). Anyway, we got there around 2 pm for a late lunch and joined the waitlist via yelp. We were seated approximately 15 minutes later which is what we were quoted. (Party of 2). I immediately noticed how cute it was inside. Lots of Canadian flare and artwork. Our server was Omar and he was incredible. I know customer service jobs are fast paced and thankless but he was quick, friendly and helpful. I love feeling like I'm getting the insider scoop on the best things to order. My son and i started off with sharing a half order of poutine which was delish and the perfect amount. He went with the chefs favorite breakfast- French toast and wheat bread. It was a massive plate of food and was delish. He definitely had leftovers. I got the lox benedict and latkes. I will admit i am a bit of an eggs benedict snob as i am a pro at making the dish. I find that most of the time the hollandaise sauce is split or tastes like nothing and/or the poached eggs are under or over- most of the time they are over. Happy to report no issues whatsoever with the eggs or hollandaise. I prefer my sauce to be a bit more lemony but it was well executed. The plate was full of food and it was all delish. No complaints. I am looking forward to my leftovers. I grabbed my free cookie from the yelp app and am looking forward to eating it later. I want to add that even my son noticed that not only was our waiter friendly, everyone that worked there appeared to be (which is unusual!) i will definitely return to try more things on the menu. We also joked that it was in the true Canadian spirit for everyone there to be so great. Keep it up!!

Service was spectacular, super fast, polite, and helpful. The restaurant is typical diner style inside, nothing fancy. The food is incredible. I got the fried steak poutine and it will live on in my heart forever. So much gravy, a healthy portion of steak, tasty fries, and of course, delicious cheese curds. I would go back weekly but I fear I'd have a heart attack soon.

Come hungry!!! The portion sizes are huge and very delicious. We tried the poutine which was fine. It was no where near as good as in Montreal but it was okay. I felt the brown gravy was a bit bland. Note the white gravy was really good! Had some lovely biscuits and gravy. Try their Bloody Mary, really great presentation and the taste was fantastic. Our waitress was lovely and helped us fine great options on the menu. Food cake out fresh and fast. The place looks like Canada threw up in it which is really fun! They have some cool looking t-shirts and other souvenirs. I feel the breakfast is the way to go here, enjoy!

Food was fantastic! Service was even better because of Melissa. The ambiance is a classic American diner with a Canadian spin. French toast was my favorite!

Good food, awesome service. We went to Dallas for a holiday weekend and we really did not know where to go for breakfast. We went to the Maple Leaf diner based on Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. The portion size was on point and the food were just Seasoned right. I highly recommend this place.

I really enjoyed the food and service here. Great dill sauce with fish fry and comes with American and Canadian chips. Very clean and well kept diner style decor. Must go to spot.

Absolutely delicious and authentic!! Service is friendly, fast and helpful. They make sure you are ok and they check on you often! The ambiance is busy and good high energy! Always a long waiting list! HIGHLY suggest you "join the waitlist" before arriving. It gives a pretty accurate idea of wait time and you can plan accordingly! The Poutine is to die for!!

At 9am on a Friday there were plenty of tables available but the place definitely filled up within the hour. The 6 of us sat in a huge booth. They can definitely accommodate large parties. Started with a half order of poutines. The fries were COMPLETELY covered with gravy and gooey cheese. I ordered the "stack" per my nephews request (they wanted the cream puffs). Two waffles, 3 pieces of chicken tenders, 2 pieces of bacon and 2 cream puffs. The waffles are layered with strawberries and whipped cream. The chicken was very tender! Bacon was crispy enough. Blueberry pancakes were another hit! The kids meals are a great deal at $6.99. I think the one egg breakfast would've been enough for an adult even. Our waitress, Melissa, was great! She checked on us throughout our meal. Refilled my coffee as needed. Prioritized getting the kids meals out first.

There will definitely be a wait so I highly recommend using the Yelp waitlist. I would say start looking 2 hours in advance to time your arrival on the weekends. Food was spectacular and I loved the large plating! There were so many amazing looking choices that it was hard to choose. Overall this is a great diner experience with Canadian favorites, but make sure you plan accordingly and get on the waitlist in advance. This place is popular for a reason!

So, there I was making my way out of Dallas with a hunger bigger than Texas itself. My taste buds were itching for something homey, as I was on my way to Arkansas, and boy, did I find one at the Maple Leaf Diner. A Canadian spot in Dallas? As unexpected as finding a penguin in a cowboy hat, but hey, I'm all about those culinary plot twists. Walking up, the host greeted us with a smile so warm, I half expected to see a moose waving at me next. It was like being teleported straight to Canada, minus the long flight and the snow. We were seated quicker than you can say "Eh," in a spot that felt just right amidst the bustling ambiance of fellow food adventurers. Now, let me talk about our waiter - a true gem, shining brighter than the Northern Lights. The place was buzzing like a hive in spring, but he treated us like we were the Queen and King of Canuck. With a grin and a grace, he dished out recommendations, and my boyfriend, bless his adventurous soul, dove right into one of them and emerged victorious and satisfied. As for me? I dove fork-first into the farmer's omelette, which was a masterpiece of eggy, meaty, cheesy goodness. Those fried potatoes on the side? Imagine biting into a cloud, if clouds were crispy and seasoned to perfection. And the pancakes, oh the pancakes! Fluffier than my favorite pillow, drizzled with house-made maple syrup that was the stuff of sweet, sticky dreams. But let's not forget about the preserves--because, darling, these weren't your grandma's jelly. They were the kind of good that makes you want to write love songs about breakfast food. All in all, Maple Leaf Diner wasn't just a meal; it was a journey--a delicious jaunt to our neighbors up north without ever leaving the Lone Star State. It was a reminder that sometimes, the best adventures are the ones you never see coming. So, if you're ever wandering through Dallas with a rumble in your belly and a spirit for adventure, swing by the Maple Leaf Diner. It's a Canadian invasion of the tastiest kind, and I'm here for it, eh!

Stop what you're doing and get down to Maple Leaf diner asap! Hands down the best Bacon chicken and waffles I've ever had. The dish was prepared mile high and full of bacon. They even added two cream puffs on top with extra love. The staff made me feel right at home and even told me their favorite options as well the background story of the establishment. This hole in the wall makes you feel like you're back on the farm eating fresh food prepared with care. The restaurant is clean, inviting and has tables big enough for the entire family. Menu ranges in a variety of options so there's something for everyone!

I'm so sad that I've lived in Dallas for years, and I didn't know this Canadian haven existed! Absolutely delicious!! I'm not a huge breakfast person and especially not a waffle person, but when I was told the Chicken, Bacon & Waffles was the go-to, I just had to, and I was so glad I did! I also really loved the pot roast poutine. Usually, the fries are so soggy that it just ruins it for me, but they were fresh, and the gravy was super flavorful. Definitely take dessert to go. You'll be way too stuffed from the food, but you know you want something for later. The service was great and super fast. We went on a Friday morning, and it was steadily busy, but I'm told this place is extremely packed on the weekends, so I would get there early or join the waitlist ASAP!

One of my fav brunch spots! Everything is huge and delicious. You will leave full and still have tons of food left. Only negative is that it's usually 200+ min wait on the weekends and joining the waitlist in advance is a must.

Attractive, busy café with Canadian-themed food. Everything we tried was delicious. Long waits, generous servings, and attentive service seem to be the norm.

We stayed at a hotel nearby and saw that they had a lot of reviews so we decided to come here for brunch. We signed up on the Yelp waitlist while we got ready so by the time we got there it was a short wait. We killed time at the bakery next door and spice shop across the parking lot. My boyfriend got the real canadian breakfast and I got the classic eggs benedict. The canadian bacon was delicious and eggs were perfectly poached. The breakfast potatoes weren't crispy so that wasn't great but I was so full at the end of it that I couldn't finish them anyways. It's a very busy restaurant and can be loud but the waitstaff is nice and they don't rush you. There were some interesting choices on the menu but they looked way heavier than we wanted so we were glad to have gotten a lighter breakfast. Next time we find ourselves in Dallas I think we will try a different brunch spot.

Excellent food and excellent service. Our waiter was courteous, respectful and attentive. We did the waitlist and were seated in minutes. We will definitely be going back!

This place is exactly what you'd expect in Canada - decent food and friendly staff. The place was busy but we were seated right away. We asked the ladies next to us what they ordered and one of them said the blueberry pancake was to be avoided - she had better elsewhere. I ordered the waffle trio with egg whites and bacon. The bacon was burnt to a crisp (just how I like it) and the eggs were cooked perfectly. My waffle was a bit cold but still edible. My partner told our waitress to pick something, so she brought back French toast, eggs and sausage. It was decent. Our waitress was super sweet. We went here because it was highly rated - it's definitely worth checking out if you're a tourist out of town, but it's not worth going back to again.

Breakfast time on a Saturday is really busy be sure to put yourself on the waitlist. Melissa our waitress was phenomenal, very nice and attentive! We ordered and although there was a hiccup in the timing of our food coming out, I will still give 5 stars for the sheer abundance of kindness and respect that was given to us for that mistake. The manager Neve (sp?) was so apologetic and gave us free dessert! Country breakfast was tasty and that cream puff was delicious! Canadian eggs Benedict was scrumptious too. Even the coffee was tasty and hot! Very small dining area for the amount of people that go but the booths are large for large parties to sit comfortably.

Ate here once as we were in town for Queen and the only bad thing is we tried to go on Sunday at 11 and the online wait line was over an hour. We couldn't wait so we were so sad. The food was simple. Had the Chefs Special that came with six pieces of bacon and three eggs and pancakes and toast. It was so fresh. The eggs seemed to be pasture eggs and the bacon was perfect. The pancakes were hearty and the warm maple (naturally) was warm. Also had the chicken fried steak breakfast with gravy and eggs and it was delicious but too much to eat. Tried, but the stomach capacity dictated to stop. It's BUSY. And that means plan way ahead or eat off hours. We waited 40 minutes at 2pm. It would not matter if they had double or 10x the seating. It's fantastic so it's busy. Good food is worth the wait.

I'd been wanting to try this place for a while as I hadn't had poutine since the place I used to eat it in Austin shut down 5 or so years back The restaurant was busy in the early afternoon about an hour before closing (at a shockingly early 2:30pm on weekdays since they seem to specialize a lot of breakfast foods) but they do a great job of dividing up the tables and have folding screens that seem to dampen the noise a bit. Service stood out and my waiter was friendly and attentive. The classic poutine (full size ~$10) was awesome. The gravy was thick, the cheese curds nice and gooey without being too much of a stringy mess, and the portion was enough where I didn't end up quite finishing it all. In addition the also have varieties with pot roast, chicken fried steak, and southern gravy that I'm sure I'll have to come back to try, as well as a bakery that I was too full to think about ordering from at the time. Maple leaf diner is a great option if you are craving some poutine and their menu looked pretty inviting as a nice brunch possibility as well. My only mark against it is with their hours it might might be hard for me too make it there for a late lunch or early dinner when I'd be more likely to be on that side of town.

Service was great here. Came for breakfast and shared the chicken waffles dish. The place is super cute with all the Canadian decorations. The cookies here were soooo yummy! We got the dulce de lèche and snickerdoodle ones. Oh we wish we had gotten more! Definitely would come back.

Ok, so, road trip back home from New Orleans to Vegas. Needed lunch that we could eat in the car. Ordered ahead on their website: fish and chips, and chicken tenders and poutine. Very friendly and helpful staff. Host opened the door for us, server asked how he could help, lady at counter was cheerful. When she brought out our food, she showed the containers to make sure everything looked good to us. The fish was one huge piece, which I wasn't expecting. She recommended I break it up and make little sandwiches with the rolls included. There were also cooked carrots and string beans in the container, which I was happy to see. Fish was excellent, so thick, hearty, and well cooked. The chicken tenders were a little more standard. The half order of poutine was very good, but there were literally only 4 or 5 cheese curds. Would have liked a little more. They also have fresh baked cookies, so I bought a few. Would definitely recommend the white chocolate raspberry, dulce de leche, and one that was a blueberry scone type with a cheesecake type of center. No idea if I'll get back to Dallas again, but I'm a firm believer in supporting local businesses. You can get McDonald's any time. Try Maple Leaf if you're in the area. Sorry, no pics. I was juggling enough with all this food on my lap, didn't want to add a phone to the mix. :D

We absolutley loved this place!! The food was delicious!! I especially loved the cheese curds, so authentic. Our service was wonderful. Even though they were super busy the place was very clean. My only complaint is the wait was sooooo long and there needs to be another location in North Fort Worth

I came in and was immediately sat without a wait. I looked over the menu and found what I wanted. My server christine suggested nothing. Not even a beverage. This was my first time dining here. So that would have helped. She took a minute to refill my drink. I was thirsty because my waffle was huge and delicious. The chicken was hot and fresh and delicious. I just wished they had better butter options. I hate the small pack of butter. My menu was clean. I was surprised by that because it was a paper menu. I also noticed how clean the restaurant was. I really appreciate. Every one seemed so pleasant. The lady stopped by my table to tell me to check in on yelp for a free cookie. That was awesome. I'll be back again

The food and drinks were amazing. I will definitely be back. The service was good and it was packed on the weekend. It had a relaxed diner atmosphere.

Came in for brunch. Just make sure you get on the waitlist because on the weekend especially it will be quite a bit of a wait. It was worth it though. The food was delicious and came out quick. It is very busy and great place for families to go to. The restaurant is on the smaller side but does have long booth seating for larger groups.

Food big portion yet delicious but MELISSA our waitress made our visit even better THANK YOU MAPLE LEAF DINER for hiring MELISSA!

My wife and I were visiting Dallas and wanted to try something new. To start, the decor in the restaurant represents Canada very well. I thought that was cool. I recommend joining the waitlist on Yelp because it gets very busy. Our server was very attentive towards us from the time we sat down to the time we left. We started with the half order of poutine. This was immaculate. In my opinion, it's the best thing on their menu. The taste of it makes you feel like you're actually in the Land of Maple Syrup! The chicken fried steak was okay. The eggs were frozen and not fresh so that kind of threw the meal off a bit. My wife enjoyed her waffles with the chicken and bacon. One last thing: Trying their cream puffs are a must!

The food here was amazing and fresh. The service was also great. Loved this place. We would love to come back next time we are in Dallas. The poutine was very fresh.

This was my first time visiting Maple Leaf Diner!! It was such a unique Canadian gem, with lots of unique items on the menu. Service/Ambiance: The service at this establishment truly stands out, thanks to the attentive and friendly waitstaff. The ambiance is nothing short of inviting. With plenty of seating available, you never feel cramped or rushed, allowing you to enjoy your meal at your own pace. The lighting is just right - not too dim, not too bright - creating a cozy atmosphere that's perfect for a meal. The Chicken, Bacon & Waffles dish at this establishment is a fusion of flavors. The chicken is fried perfectly and the savory bacon adds so much depth. At the bottom lies two perfectly cooked Belgian waffles, creating a delightful contrast between crunchy and fluffy. But that's not all - the addition of fresh strawberries and delicate cream puffs adds a touch of sweetness that elevates the dish to new heights of indulgence Now, let's talk about the Poutine. This classic Canadian comfort food is elevated to new levels of deliciousness here. Imagine a generous serving of crispy fries, perfectly golden and cooked to perfection. Then, imagine them smothered in a rich and savory gravy that's bursting with flavor. Each forkful was just so delightful!!

I came here the first time after my graduation. We were all starved after a long walk, and this place solved all our problems. I had the cream of mushroom soup, poutine, and Steak/Waffles. Beware, the food is extremely delicious AND can be overwhelming. But that doesn't take from the fact that this is the best brunch I've ever had. The next time I ate from here was Uber Eats - I had pot roast poutine and Chicken/Waffles. I know fries can get soggy but I didn't have an issue with it because the gravy made it so delicious. But I definitely recommend eating in the restaurant when going here, food like this deserves to be consumed fresh out of the kitchen

Second time here. They came through again with the pasta. And the pie. This place stay packed on weekends apparently. So you know it's gonna be a wait. But it's worth it. Check it out if ya haven't.

Tried this spot out on a Saturday. Wait was pretty long, but thankfully you can hop on the waitlist online. Aside from the wait, service was really fast. Menu prices are great considering you get huge portions. Some of my favorites were the cream puffs, poutine, and scones!

It lived up to the hype! I went for Sunday brunch with my mom and boyfriend; we had about a 15 minute wait for a table of 3 (around 10am). We were quickly greeted by our waitress, Mae, once we sat down. We ordered 2 coffees and an iced pumpkin latte. The coffees were standard, bonus points for having decaf coffee freshly brewed. The iced pumpkin latte was very creamy and light in color. It was more of a pumpkin milk, than a pumpkin latte. For meals, I ordered the original pancake stack, and the rest of my party ordered the Canadian eggs Benedict (one with a side of poutine). The pancakes were light and fluffy and the maple syrup was so so good! I was expecting it to be with it being a Canadian diner!! The cream puff that came on top was one an added treat. The filling was light and custardy with a sweet icing on top. I tried the eggs Benedict as well. The ham was salty, thick and perfect for eggs benny!!! There was plenty of sauce on top, the sprinkled dill on top as a nice flavor touch. The poutine was piled high and looked fantastic; we ended up with a lot of leftovers. The side of potatoes with the eggs Benedict was a massive amount; they were heavily seasoned in the best way. It was progressively getting more crowded and busy, as expected for Sunday brunch, but Mae checked in regularly and dropped off things we needed before we could even ask (extra napkins, ketchup, etc.)! Great service and a good ambiance. It was clean and simply decorated. They definitely take pride in their stellar reputation!

I was in Dallas for a Women's Conference and just happened to Yelp brunch places in the area I was staying and my friend and I lucked up on this Canadian brunch spot. It did not disappoint! When they say everything in Texas is big, they mean it! The chicken and waffles is a popular brunch dish so we decided to order it along with an Irish corn beef skillet. When you check in, you get a free stuffed cookie. Our server gave us a chocolate and raspberry filled. I wasn't a fan. It should have been warmed so the filling is gooey when you take a bite. The server was great! We have no complaints and would come back if ever in Dallas again.

Every time we have an extended stay in the Dallas are we try our best to visit this restaurant. The food and service is always superb and you can never go wrong!! There's going to be a wait, but it's worth it!!!! 10/10!!!

Fun diner food that's delicious. Somewhat greasy and unhealthy but to be expected with a diner. Servers were great and did their best, but it felt like they were rushed. They are clearly busy and understaffed.

I don't remember the server's name but he was very respectful. We were here from out of town and wanted to see how great the breakfast was here. I had a build your own omelet and my other half had the Denver skillet. The food was great, we were so hungry we didn't take photos but the food was delicious, the service was good, and the server gave us top-tier service. When we come back to town we know where to stop.

Space - 3/5 The front of house is clean, nothing fancy (this is a diner after all). Unfortunately, the restrooms are tiny compared to the enormous seating area, perhaps half the size which would be appropriate for the restaraunt. Service - 5/5 This is a table service diner, and our server was excellent. Gave great recommendations, and was entertaining to boot. Food - 4/5 As others have said, the poutine is excellent. If you've never had poutine and want to give it a go, this is a great place to start. The Lox Benedict is also worth a recommendation. I would avoid the home fries, however, which, despite being a fry-lover, I had no desire to finish.

Amazing food! Great service. Nice location. Have yet to try their pies because I never save enough room for them .

This place has been a hit or miss the past few times I've gone, but the last time I went, I really enjoyed what I got. I ordered the Chicken, Bacon & Waffles (it's one of their most popular items), and my friend got the Diner Special. My meal had fried chicken breast & bacon served on Belgian waffles with whipped cream, strawberries and cream puffs. With the diner special, you can choose between blueberry, pumpkin or chocolate chip pancakes. My friend chose the blueberry pancakes and the meal also comes with two eggs, two slices of bacon, two sausage links and a cream puff. You also get to choose between scratch-made white or wheat toast, biscuit, bagel or English muffin and it's served with homemade preserves. I love how beautifully the first meal was presented and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The strawberries complimented it well and also, the cream puffs were so yummy! My friend and I enjoyed what we ordered and they were both filling meals. Even though it was packed, we didn't have to wait too long to get our food and the customer service was great!

Oh man I absolutely love this place. HUGE portions at a reasonable price. Love the ambiance. Love the staff. Love the poutine and the oversize waffles. I try to get everyone to try this spot.

Good diner food with Canadian twist. Hollandaise sauce on Eggs Benedict exceptional, home fries also recommended. Blueberry pancakes are good but wouldn't come here just for those. Overall food quality definitely good. Didn't try the apparently famous Chicken and Waffles but impressive looking. Also not poutine lovers so didnt try. Fast service once you get in. Getting on electronic wait-list ahead of time a must during busy times. It's a very hot wait on the sidewalk during the summer and not a lot places to sit when line is long. Clean with pleasant enough diner ambiance including some big red booths! However not particularly fresh or especially charming compared to some other diners in town. Very loud during busy times but you know...diner. We will be going back if only for the Canadian Eggs Benedict and to try the Chicken and Waffles.

Solid diner food. I wouldn't say over special but definitely good quality. Be prepared for wait if coming on a busy day. I used the yelp app to get on their wait list and it worked like a charm. Had a fairly short wait once we got there. Latkes were good. Wife got chicken and waffles which also looked good and decent sized. Service was lightening fast so we were able to get in and out fast.

Oh my so much food, and so yummy Nona's pasta was excellent. The flat pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was fantastic. It was definitely homemade and slow cooked. The chicken strips were moist hand cut breast and breaded to perfection. The sweet potato fries were a little over fried though. Lox Benedict had perfectly cooked poached eggs with velvety hollandaise sauce. The restaurant was clean and service prompt and efficient. Looking forward to many more meals.

Soooo yummy! Drink was perfectly strong, food was amazing, hot and fast. I'm not over this way often but I will stop in again!

Always good was swamped and they did a great job with food and service.. Always a great time

We found this diner with 3000 plus reviews while we were visiting Dallas, and I had to try it. Even on a Tuesday for lunch there was still a wait time. Although you can put down your name and they will text you when ready. We waited about 15 minutes. They won't seat you until all your party is there. Our waitress was very nice. I checked in for the free cookie and she gave me two. Sadly, the raspberry lemon cookie, might have been the best part of the meal. I ordered my husband the classic poutine and I got the meatloaf or beef in a bonnet. The poutine was way too rich for my taste. Fries tasted soggy in the gravy and salty. I liked the meat in a bonnet but it was filled to the brim with mashed potatoes. Again, extremely heavy fare---I couldn't finish. The temperature for both were perfect. My kids got the pancake breakfast and a waffle on the side. I was kind of shocked the waffle alone was $9. An interesting experience, but the food was just too heavy for me. Even though they've been on the food channel, I just felt the food was slightly upscale diner dishes with a Canadian twist. Nothing special.

Looking for breakfast? Lunch? Well look no further and come here. Coming to this place for breakfast / lunch was one of the best decisions we made on our trip to Dallas.. When we arrived there was not a wait so we got seated rather quickly. The waitress was friendly and dropped off menus and waters right away. The portions here are huge!! I could've easily shared my plate with someone else. I definitely had more then enough food left over but since we were going to the airport I was unable to take it with me:( The service was great and the server was very attentive. She was even able to accommodate my friend and recommended her a few things since she is vegan. Prices are reasonable and the food is delicious!
