    Lots of chicken
    Melissa H.

    I chose this restaurant for a casual dinner close to home. While I knew it was a diner I wasn't expecting the 50s decor. Coordinated with lots of pink and metallic touches, it's a fun place that makes you wish you'd worn your poodle skirt! The menu is extensive with breakfast lunch and dinner options. I chose several things to give myself a variety to try. The fried pickles were my top choice. I try these in many restaurants and this is a clear winner. Sliced in rounds, breaded and fried to a satisfying crunchy texture (chef's kiss). I ordered the meatloaf plate with chicken noodle soup and green beans and my friend chose a chicken wrap with fries. While I wasn't overly impressed with the meatloaf and mashed potatoes, the portions were big and the green beans and fries were really tasty. Service was fast and friendly. Jaxon is a polite and attentive sweetheart.

    The aesthetic is adorable with the pink phones hanging from the ceiling, the gorgeous dessert case, the pink sparkly bathroom door, and the art. Tables are too close together. Didn't really want to have to see giant TV playing Fox news during brunch. I believe that the owners also own My Big Fat Greek Tavern which is way better, but the service over there is spotty and they don't serve alcohol. The food here at the Dacula Diner is on par with the giant breakfast chain with the yellow sign. The best thing we all had was french fries which isn't really saying a whole lot for everything else we had. My grilled chicken plate was meh. Giant golfball sized pieces of potato in my home fries, a super dry chicken cutlet, a wee portion of eggs, and a thick dry biscuit that I needed water to get down. I'd much rather go to their Greek spot and just not have breakfast-y food.

    Looks like a fairly new spot. Food prices are a little on the higher end like $9 for bagel and cream cheese. They do have a big menu, there's something for all. Seems good for groups. Ambiance looks like they're trying to make this fun and instagrammable? Cute things here and there. We enjoyed our cakes but the mains were just okay.

    *** We did not dine-in as they were out of Cod fish at the time*** Adorable diner will be a huge addition to the area. They have a full menu and it look like they will have alcohol based on the bar area, its completed with TV's! The diner has a lot of character with a staff of friendly faces. I ended up ordering a slice of coconut cake to-go, the cake was around $12, but the slices are pretty big, very soft and yummy. I can wait to try the veggie omelet.

    Lobster ravioli. The sauce is scrumptious.

    Stopped in for dinner and was pleased with the food. Kelsy was our server and took great care. Food is served hot and is delicious. The dessert's look fantastic. Another great meal at the Diner!

    Servers are nice and the pies at the front looked delicious. Aesthetic is cute, not like a diner in NY but it felt nice. Now for the food... Matza ball soup- matza ball was undercooked and a literal salt bomb. I thought the soup was perfect until I cut the matza ball and opened up the sodium chloride gates. I couldn't finish the soup after that. It's how I imagine a dish would taste when an unhappy customer salts their food before returning their plate they want remade. Or, like accidentally drinking ocean water while swimming in it. The crackers were also stale and bland. Shrimp scampi- very lemony (and artificial like bottled lemon juice) garnish-heavy, and clumps of either flour or the scampi sauce made it taste awful. Buffalo chicken wrap was probably the best tasting item we ordered. It had a little too much of a balsamic glaze taste to it. Coleslaw was too vinegary. However, a wrap and fries dish is really hard to mess up. It was a safe bet. The table next to us got the fried calamari and it looked good. I don't think I want to go back, though. The Diner on Webb Ginn is way better.

    The decor is fun and inviting, great diner feel. Service was excellent. Jackson, our server, was awesome! The food is great and there is so many options!

    The cutest place EVER!!! Such a good date night restaurant! Everything tasted so fresh and clean! Multiple options as they served breakfast, lunch, dinner, and all of their cakes look AMAZING!!

    A Hidden Gem in Dacula - We're Coming Back! We had the pleasure of visiting Dacula Diner today, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. We ordered the Disco Fries, Chicken Cordon Bleu Sandwich, and a Monte Cristo Sandwich, and let me tell you, everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Our server, Maria, was incredibly friendly and accommodating. She and the staff immediately made us feel welcome and at home, even going out of their way to rearrange chairs to make room for my husband's wheelchair. That kind of genuine hospitality means a lot. The ambiance is fun and inviting, the kind of place where you feel like a regular even if it's your first time. And in this economy? The prices are more than reasonable, especially considering the large portions and quality of the food. We're so happy to have a diner like this in our town. We'll definitely be back soon!! Can't wait to try their breakfast and dinner service next!

    They are brand new to the neighborhood and just getting started. I will say everybody was courteous, and the food was good. It came out hot and at a reasonable time. They only have three or four booths, everything else is a table and chair. The decor is like 50s, as was the music which was kind of cool. They got a little busy and it took a minute to get to go boxes and check out. But that's normal for a restaurant. They did not have a lunch menu so the menu that they can do is their menu all the time . The prices are a little bit high. Naturally we would like to try some other items on the menu and will be back to see if anything has changed.

    Got the Tropical Sunset and Neon splash. Also got the lasagna and Oreo cake. Everything was delicious!!! So nice to finally have a diner near the Dacula area. The service was great, everyone is so nice, friendly, and welcoming. Definitely will be back!

Once we were seated, took about 10 minutes to have our drink order taken then another 10-15 minutes to actually receive the drinks. It appears to be only family members that work here but I may be wrong; if so they definitely need to hire 1 or 2 staffers to help on weekends. I think that might have made a difference in the service. My catfish was seasoned well but was fried pretty hard; almost made it "tough." Greens were good. The Hennessy Yams were good but quite heavy on the Hennessy. Cajun seafood eggrolls barely had a hint of cajun seasoning. Very disappointed in the peach cobbler as it had no sweetness to it. Very nice ambiance. Generous portions which was a plus, but too many other "misses" to justify returning.

They sell gator and crawfish. We came to purchase Fried Catfish which is served with a side. We ordered the veggies which consist of (1) corn, a half potato and broccoli in seasoned butter sauce. Once we arrived we saw they had Boiled Shrimp with corn and potato and my hubby wanted the Garlic Noodles with heavy season potatoes, sausage and (1) corn on the Cobb. However, my hubby was disappointed that the noodles looked and tasted like Ramen Noodles! He is from Cali, Bay Area and knows ethnic food and what is not what it is. So we want order that ever again. The Fried Catfish and Perch was delicious. The Fried Catfish was the winner overall! It was flaky fresh and cooked to perfection!! We will definitely return to order it with vegetables or try the fries. The young man at the register was friendly and helpful. The space is huge. You can have a large party of people come and eat. They also cater and have private rooms. If it wasn't too cold, we would have sat on the patio. There were heaters with wood in place, but we went home to eat.

The food was made fresh and ready in about 15 minutes. I ordered the eggs and shrimp combo; menu listed broccoli included--my order was missing broccoli. I substituted the sausage for more shrimp and added noodles. Overall, the food tasted good; the noodles were seasoned well. I would suggest additional seasoning options. They only offer garlic butter and cajun butter--you may combine the two (Vintage Butter). Otherwise, it's a good quality boil. I didn't discover the missing broccoli until I got home. I like that take-out orders are packaged in a pan. Remind staff to include bib and gloves because I was not given any!

My birthday is Christmas week and I typically don't go out as I simply would rather not have to deal with the anticipated crowds. It was indeed crowded (on a Tuesday!) but my experience is one I'll never forget. She had made reservations and so to save a bit of time, we did valet parking. And from the friendliness of the valet, to the near immediate greeting and seating upon arrival, Seasons52 truly made my birthday special. I honestly can't give enough kind words for our server Tori - she was a genuine treat! Professional, attentive, kind ... just a beautiful soul. Please acknowledge Tori for the kind human being that she is and the wonderful service she provides. And my steak - the 8 oz. filet - oh my! Easily one of the best I've ever had! Perfectly cooked and seasoned. I savored every bite! Even the young guy at valet parking (wish I had gotten his name) was attentive and pleasant. I left them both nice, FAT tips with the hope that I made there day just as much as they made mine. They were even intentional about thanking us for our visit as we were leaving. Thank you so much Seasons52 for making my birthday a memorable one!

To their credit, the staff did apologize and replaced the meal, and also offered a Caesar salad. However, the salad itself was not good and didn't really make up for the situation. The replacement entrée was fine--it tasted good--but by that point the experience was already affected. For a place like this, you expect a higher level of quality control and attention to detail. While they did try to fix the issue, finding something like that in your food is hard to overlook. Overall, just not the experience I expected for the price. Only good thing was my server he was excellent, I wish I could have remembered his name.

Past by this restaurant all the time, but never had a chance to try it until I saw it on IG yesterday. Ended up ordering 12 lbs of crawfish right away with 3 different flavors and OMG...it's so good! My whole household loves it. The flavors just hit the spot. Crawfish was fresh, not frozen. Some were decent size and some were small, but every bite was worth it. I did tried to place the order over the phone to avoid the $7.50 online platform fee (unavoidable even if it's through their website or app), but they said that I had to order it online because it was my first time. I've also ordered it 3 hours in advance for pickup, but when we got there, we still had to wait another 15+ minutes or so. I prefer to have it waiting for me to just pick up and go as I was on a time crunch. That's why I set it up at a certain time. Overall, I had recommended this place to all my family and friends. I can't wait to order from them again sooner than later being that it's crawfish season.
