When we arrived we were seated quickly. A lot of items stood out to us on the menu so we went back and forth on what to order but it did take a little bit for someone to come take our order. Ultimately we landed on the peach cobbler French toast, cinnamon roll French toast, and a 1/2 and 1/2 lunch special with chicken & waffles and a cup of jambalaya. I was told the peach cobbler French toast was really good. The cinnamon roll French toast was prepared perfectly. Not soggy which was surprising given how much syrup and melted cream was on the plate. It was just VERY sweet. It also came with a side of eggs and brown sugar sage sausage patties. I loved the sausage patties and 2 was just enough. The chicken and waffles were good, the chipotle honey that came on the side complimented the chicken really well. The jambalaya had potential, but could have been seasoned a bit heavier. I also ordered the raspberry peach palmer and it was bombbb. I'd absolutely recommend another broken egg and will definitely stop in again if there's a location nearby.

I…read moreknow someone who owns one of these restaurants in Alabama and it's the first time I've seen it locally to try. I arrived around 11:00 and it wasn't all that busy and opted to sit inside. Although they have a nice outdoor area it was warm and humid on this day and I wanted to sit in the air conditioning. I was seated immediately and provided a menu. I was a little surprised by the prices on the menu as I expected it to be a little less than it was. My server came by shortly after and asked about drinks and I got water. A few minutes later he came back and I ordered the peach cobbler French toast which looked good but probably look better in the picture then when it arrived. The presentation wasn't very good as it was just thrown on a plate and not really well presented to me. It tasted good it was very sweet but it was good. One of the things that reduced the star was both the presentation and the fact that the syrup that was presented to me in the cup had a layer of film over it and when I went to pour it over my French toast it wouldn't pour until I pierced the film covering the syrup. The eggs over medium and the well done bacon that I ordered came out perfectly and were very good. It was starting to get busy when I was ready to leave and it took a little longer for my server to bring my check and also then pick it up. All in all it was a good meal, and I will be back but I will try something else the next time I come in. I definitely recommend giving this restaurant a try.

The line to order went quickly and food was brought to us at our outdoor table. Our party of 2 had no problem getting a seat, but on weekends parties larger than 3 may be better off with take out.

When I looked up it's menu I saw that it had a New Mexico theme - score! So I was very excited, and hopeful that the food would bring back memories of trips to Albuquerque. It did! I'm a huge fan of Hatch chiles. I roast and freeze a case or two from Wegmans every year (August 21 in Frederick, baby!). So when I saw Hatch chiles used extensively across the menu I was VERY excited. Ended up ordering stacked enchiladas (corn tortillas layered with refried beans, shredduce, tomatoes, topped with a fried egg). I asked for "Christmas style" - a 50/50 mix of red and green chiles. It was excellent, every bit as good as any I ate in Albuquerque, with enough heat to make it, well, perfect. The rest of the fam enjoyed a mix of sandwiches, burgers, and salads. Clean plate club members all! Prices were good, and service was attentive and fast. And it's a hell of a lot easier to drive to Catonsville than it is to fly to New Mexico to get my chile fix!

While it's a…read morebit more of a medium-priced diner compared to some traditional breakfast spots, the quality of the food made it well worth the cost. A few highlights from my visit: Delicious brunch options that were well-prepared and satisfying. Food quality that justified the price point. Accommodated our family of six comfortably with a reservation. Clean and well-maintained bathrooms. Convenient parking lots located across the street. Friendly atmosphere that made for a pleasant dining experience. One of the best parts of the location is what comes after the meal. The diner is situated along Catonsville's Main Street, making it easy to spend some time walking around, window shopping, and exploring the local businesses nearby. Overall, Doozy's Diner is a great brunch destination with tasty food, good service, and a convenient location. If you're in the Catonsville area and looking for a solid breakfast or brunch spot, it's definitely worth a visit.

Very fun big bar as well. We got everything she recommended and it was so good! We got the Eggstravaganza (Brioche French Toast with two eggs, choice of meat and potatoes) and the Flatbread Sourdough Pizza with Pepperoni, grilled onions and peppers, and extra cheese. For drinks we got the seasonal Pistachio Latte and the Tropical Teaser smoothie that was a refreshing fresh fruit smoothie with mango, banana, pineapple and strawberries.

Recently met up with a friend and we sat at the bar. It wasn't too crowded. Antonio greeted us right away and provided menus and complimentary popcorn. I wasn't that hungry so didn't get any food this time. They have a few snacks/munchies on happy hour: pretzels, wings, cauliflower, tacos, mussels, and more. Lately I've been getting into gin so I started with "the 75" which is basically a French 75! It was a good drink. My only "complaint" and I know it's petty, was that it was served in a stemless flute and I've always have it a stemmed flute. At $7, it was still worth it! I then tried the happy hour red wine which was the portillo (a Malbec) and it was pretty good. That was in a stemmed glass at least. The brunch menu looked good. I would visit again.

The menu offers several dependable favorites, and the bakery display case is always tempting, filled with an assortment of pastries and desserts.

I ordered from a kiosk or you could order online or in person. I got the bacon egg and cheese croissant and it was made quickly by welcoming staff. It was a regular size croissant with very light cheese and a layer of crispy bacon pieces in a well toasted croissant. The flavor was good.

The larger shopping area has a diner 3-strip mall sections, one of which is called Princess Shopping Center, so I'm a little confused which mall-name covers which shops.

It's pre-sweetened so no need to add extra vanilla syrup or anything. This does not taste like a traditional matcha, which in my opinion tastes like dirt. This is a sweeter, dessert like matcha. I didn't care for the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. It was kind of dry and it tasted like something was missing. The croffle was amazing. It has a nutty, pecan like taste to it and it was topped with vanilla gelato and blueberries. I couldn't really taste the maple syrup but it was delicious nonetheless.
