We got seated right away. The server was very sweet and fast. They have all the sauces and jam ready before getting the food! I ordered Rowlett’s favorite and it was very delicious! My husband ordered Chicken and waffle. It was very delicious as well! The chicken had flavor. My brother ordered chorizo skillet and he said it had an amazing flavor and the portion was really good. Overall, definitely coming back!

We have been visiting this diner for the past 3 yrs every time we come home. The service, the food is great and it has a great vibe. It’s a small diner nestled in Rowlett, at times it’s packed but once you get a seat you better order your heart out!!!

Best breakfast I have ever had hands down! I had country skillet and my bf had chicken fried steak. Both were soooo good. Plate was full, cooked perfect and had lots of flavor. Service was quick and had lots of servers walking around filling coffees and drinks so were never empty. Atmosphere was 50s theme and was so cute

I always see this place and say I'm going to stop one day. Today was the day. I brought my dad here for breakfast it was 10/10. We got a traditional breakfast supper stuffed and content. Can't wait to bring my mom back with us and try the sweets pancakes or French toast! Service was great, brought out the food fast, and by no means felt rushed or anything. Loved the atmosphere and old style diner vibez. Felt very welcomed.

The diner was busy but accommodating. The music was absolutely fitting and I couldn't help singing along while dining. The service was great and the people in the diner were friendly and kind. I got the waffle plater, the waffle was tasty - the perfect balance of sweet and crispy. I love crispy bacon and it was perfect! I even enjoyed the sausage. Now... the coffee was great and I loved that my cup was never empty. I was impressed that they offered me a coffee to go. Can't wait to try other menu items!

OMG! The Best, very delicious meals! Cooked extremely well, flavorful and full of good nutrition! Highly recommend the grilled haddock in light olive oil. Caught fresh in the Atlantic, shipped to port live in Atlantic sea water, filleted and shipped on ice. LEAVE ME SOME PLEASE!

We have tried this place quite a few times and always have outstanding food. This last time we ordered Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs with a side of Hashbrowns and Grits, my partner ordered the Three Meat Melt and Grits. The Chicken Fried Steak was so delicious and cook to perfection. The Grits and hashbrowns were very tasty. My partners Three Meat Melt was fantastic a complete breakfast between the two slices of bread. Our server was very helpful and friendly. We found the restaurant very clean as were the restrooms. The restaurant has a very nostalgic feel in how the dining room is decorated. Very small with limited seating but worth the wait. We will continue to return again and again.
