Review Mama's Daughter's Diner - Dallas

Miss April
I was in a hurry this morning for an appointment. I did my best to try to enjoy my food. But Miss Ashley was a delight! She did answer her leg or foot, so it's going to take some time to heal, but be patient with her. What I really love is that you weren't picky about where you can take a seat. You are allowed to sit wherever you like. The lady who owned it unfortunately passed away 10 years ago, but their granddaughter and daughters are highly involved in the business. And I do come by on and off. I can't wait to get back and try the pies, which I heard was so delicious. I think I found another favorite eating place! Everything looked great, and my blueberry pancakes actually had a lot of blueberries in it, not just three of them, LOL. So if you don't eat all your food, expect to take a doggy bag home.

Mama's Daughters' Diner is a cute little mom and pop cafe that is great for a traditional breakfast. This place does get pretty busy on the weekends, but the service is fast and we haven't had to wait too long for a table. We have only eaten breakfast here, but it is a great meal! The portions are standard for breakfast and the prices are reasonable. We do not eat breakfast meat and while they do not allow substitutions on breakfast specials 1-4, I was able to order a special without meat for the same price. The biscuits appear homemade, and the gravy is creamy. I did have an issue with a hair being found in my food, but I brought this up to the waitress who apologized and had my food remade. Definitely will eat here again!

If you like old style diners that serve home style food, this is the place for you. The customer service is amazing. You get 3 sides with your lunch specials, and the food came out within 5 minutes. We went at 11:45 middle of lunch and no problem getting in, ordering and leaving within an hour. Food was served hot and was very good. Will go back for lunch again next week.

This is our go to spot for a warm homestyle breakfast! I live less than 5 minutes away and it’s super convenient for me to stop for a quick bite or have it delivered on my lazy days. I always get the #2 w/French toast and Turkey sausage and add a side a hash browns. My partner gets the chicken fried steak and a waffle for dessert. This truly is a hidden gem!

This is a great mom n pops diner. Came here for breakfast with my daughter, and we loved it! The food is great, and it was brought out quickly and hot. It was flavorful and delicious. The pies for dessert were great too!

Today, while I was waiting for my car to be serviced, I decided that since I had a couple hours to spend, I would have some lunch. I popped over to this lovely quaint diner. I'm here to tell you that their roast beef was out of this world. My entree was served with three generous sides and corn bread. I was thinking the food would take at least a few minutes to be delivered to my table, but it came straight out! No waiting at all! Delicious and piping hot. The service was impeccable as well. Romelia was very pleasant.

One of the best places to visit if your in Dallas to give you a down home dining experience. Both breakfast and lunch options are great choices. My waitress customer service was spot on from beginning to end, very nice overall. Food arrived 7 minutes from ordering. Hot and fresh chicken fried chicken smothered with gravy. Breakfast is always good. Parking space is small. All employees seem to be happy working there and it shows with great service.

Very good food. We've never eaten inside since we always get take out. Place seems very cozy and staff are super nice. Food portions are very good for the price. Definitely recommend but they are only open until 3pm so get up early and go so you don't miss out.

My husband and I stopped in for a late lunch on a Monday afternoon. I was surprised by how many people were there for such a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Our server was friendly and the food was good, nothing super special. I don’t exactly think they’re going for mind-blowing dishes. As we were finishing our meal, we were offered a free slice of pie since they close at 2:30pm so that was a nice treat (on top of the banana pudding we already ordered). Would definitely go back to try more of their desserts and breakfast/lunch staples!

Found this after a “breakfast” search on Maps and will say it was worth taking the chance. While the interior looks a bit unmaintained the food was really good, specially the french toast and biscuits/gravy (which were huge). The service could improve, while it was busy they were fast with serving the food but not very welcoming. At the end of the day, I would definitely come back!

This is the best diner google recommended me so far. Located in suburb Downtown Dallas and the place looking like a rundown 60’s diner let me tell you it’s far from it once you get inside. Inside you’re greeted with a family atmosphere and very warm greeting. You get to sit yourself and take in all the warm family photos of the restaurant and mama said lines scattered all around the ceiling. Service is fairly quick and very friendly. The options on the menu should read portions are large because the meals definitely will fill you up and it’s cooked to order. Everything is prepared fresh and hot and delicious; filling every taste bud with mamas home cooked meals. The price for two people is mind blowing awesome. For two I spent no more than $30 including tip on both occasions and I feel like I should tip more for what they offer and how amazing the service and food is!! Definitely recommend coming here and giving this place a try you won’t regret it and you can’t use the excuse it’s a long wait!!

I walk to go try it. I've been told great thing about this place and everything was right on it, I made a mistake and didn't check my food before I left and I was given something different but they gave me credit for the next time. This is an Awesome place to eat at or pick up. I had chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes with cream gravy, fried okra, broccoli and cheese, and for dessert I had peach cobbler. I normally don't eat this much food at one time and I ate it all. And I had 2 rolls with it.

Came here for a work lunch a bit before noon. The food is standard fare done competently. Service was fairly fast and efficient, though the server only came back once after we received our food. As I needed something this was inconvenient. Overall,I wouldn't hesitate to come back.

Hi there! We stopped in to the diner for lunch. We got the opportunity to try two things. The hubby opted for breakfast and I opted for lunch. Let me just say that the food here is good. They use real eggs for their breakfasts, and their tuna and fruit plate did not have any of the good old “trash fruit” (yes, I am looking at you cantaloupe and honeydew). So why four stars instead of five? Well, like so many have said before myself… their service is slow. Also, I really hate their coffee. It is not good coffee. It tastes cheap and watered down. With so many competitors in the area that I have visited, I really feel that they could improve those two areas. I would dine here again and even try the fried pies. Would not order the coffee. The atmosphere is unique, and the old dive diner feel is in full swing! I genuinely loved the decor and vibe to the restaurant. Kids will love this restaurant because there is so much to look at. So if you want a break from Ferris Wheelers, then this is a good alternative. Thank you so much for reading!

Love the food, atmosphere, and service! I'll definitely be returning.

Loved the atmosphere. It was very packed, but we were seated almost right away. Great service. The omelet was ok.. a bit dry, but definitely full of bacon and cheese. My family really enjoyed their pancakes, eggs, and chicken fried steak! I would go back again.

Delicious food, quick service, nice waitress, and the atmosphere was very cool and nostalgic. The only bad thing I would have to say is to make sure you get there before the morning, lunch, or dinner rush bcuz there will be a long line getting in and when you're trying to leave and pay your bill, but that just shows you how good the food really is. Overall I give it a 👍🏻👍🏻.
