Service was well with Nallely was very friendly. The entire establishment was very clean and cute. Everyone was welcoming

The food here was sooo good I will definitely be coming back Enjoyed the service from Nallely she was amazing !!!!!

Dear Dad's was popping!! My friend and I waited about 30 minutes for a table, but I considered it worthwhile. The service was quick and friendly! The inside of the restaurant is sooooo cute. I love how they decorated it! The food and coffee was really good! The chicken Caesar wrap was packed full of salad, and it was well seasoned and sauced up! I loved my iced biscoff latte - it was sooo tasty. I think I gulped in down in like 5 minutes. Really great spot in Greensboro! Glad I was able to try it out. read more

Dear Dad’s - Chicken Caesar Wrap - Mexican Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I recently checked out Dear Dad and I can definitely see why people are talking about it. They're known for their American and Mexican inspired comfort food, and it did not disappoint. I started off with an iced caramel coffee, and even while we were waiting, they brought our drinks out to us, which was such a nice touch and honestly set the tone right away. They didn't have to do that, but it definitely made the experience feel more welcoming. Once we sat down, we got right into the food, chilaquiles verdes, waffles with strawberries, and huevos rancheros. Everything was flavorful and hit the spot. The place was packed, so I was honestly surprised at how quickly our food came out, but it was absolutely worth it. Service was great all around. The only thing I'd note is that it is a smaller space (it looks like it may have previously been a Waffle House), so I'd recommend going with a party of 4 or less for a more comfortable experience. Overall, definitely a spot worth trying! read more

Our waitress Emma was absolutely incredible, truly some of the best customer service my husband and I have ever experienced! She was such a joy and made our entire experience 10x better. The wait wasn't long at all, and even if it had been, it would've been completely worth it. The coffee was amazing, and all of our food was delicious, (especially the home fries, they're a MUST)! We highly recommend this place and will definitely be requesting Emma again if she's available when we come back! Wish we would have taken pictures, but seriously the cutest diner style place. read more

Finally had the chance to stop in and it did not disappoint! Expect to wait quite a while on a busy day, today our wait was ~1.25 hours but well worth it! The inside was gorgeous and I loved the design of everything! Our server was fantastic and she was super attentive, even though she clearly had a lot going on! The food was FANTASTIC! I ordered the blackened chicken Caesar wrap and also had some of the chilaquiles. The wrap was perfectly sauced and the chicken was super flavorful. I wish the fries had been crispier, but paired with the house ranch they tasted great! The chilaquiles were to die for! Spicier than I expected but that was a welcome surprise. The portion was also huge with rice and beans on the side! Definitely will be returning to try the famous waffles and french toast! read more

Dear Dad’s - Blackened Chicken Caesar Wrap with fries - Mexican Near Me - Greensboro, North Carolina

I have seen a lot of positive reviews about this restaurant. We were looking to have brunch in Greensboro and decided to give it a try. It was busy, but the wait was not too bad. The restaurant is a formal waffle house so it is not very big on the inside. We were seated at a booth and the inside of the restaurant is very cute. Our waitress was really nice and gave great recommendations. I tried the Red Velvet waffle with chicken tenders. The portion was huge and very good as well as the waffle. I also enjoyed my pistachio latte. My son had the chocolate cake which was fudgy and very tasty. The manager came by to check on us and I thought that was nice. Overall, a great service of food. I would just go on a weekday next time since it gets very busy. read more

Arrived around 9 am on a Friday and the restaurant was busy. There were about 2 or 3 booths available when I arrived but they were soon filled as well. I love everything about how the staff welcomed my sister and I. We were checked on often and didn't have to flag anyone down for any refills. Bathrooms checked out as well. They are single stalls but there is a bench for you to sit and wait if needed. I'm late to the party dining here but the reviews do hold true. The food was tasty and portions were filling. I needed a carry out plate and so did my sister. She was happy with all of her food selections. Even the table next to us vocalized food envy for her chicken and waffles entree. I ordered the breakfast club sandwich with hash browns. I grabbed the ketchup but once I took a bite, the hash browns were all I needed on my fork. No extras. A few entrees stood out to me during this visit so I have to come back for more. As well as try a dessert or two! Thank you for the wonderful service and good eats! read more

I came to this place the other day for a work meeting with my manager. The restaurant is always super busy but we got there at a good time (2p.m.)where we didn't have to wait for our table. I was able to meet the owner of the restaurant and he was super nice! We had a really nice server who was very attentive. We asked her for some recommendations from the lunch/dinner menu and she recommended anything that has the birria in it. I ended up ordering the birria burrito and I also tried their iced vanilla latte. The latte was delicious it came in a cute glass cup with some whipped cream and caramel drizzled on top. Our food was out quickly as well. My burrito came with a side of fries that were delicious and well seasoned. My burrito was stuffed with birria, rice, beans, guacamole, and pico de gallo.It also came with a green salsa that was not spicy and I could tolerate it. It was very good, the burrito didn't feel like too overwhelming for me, although I did get full quickly and had to ask for a to go box. Overall if you're looking for a cute little brunch spot or want to grab something for dinner, Dear Dads is a great choice. The vibe inside is very warm and welcoming and they have some great music playing as well! read more

Hello Yelp... it's me again My boy E put me on and brought me to Dear Dads for the first time. We pulled up Sunday morning--party of 3, about an hour wait. Honestly? No complaints. That's how you know it's about to be serious. Now let's get into the meat and potatoes (and yeah, I mean MEAT). I ordered the Breakfast Chilaquiles with beef... and listen... this beef?? I don't know what they marinated it in--holy water? Jesus tears? Grandma's secret prayers?? Because GOOD LORD. I almost stood up and testified. Parking is a little tight, and the place is small--real intimate vibes. Like, you might accidentally make eye contact with strangers and end up knowing their life story by the time your food comes But here's what really got me: while we were waiting, the owner/manager came out and asked if we wanted drinks. DRINKS... while waiting?? That's not customer service--that's customer love. They care over there. Coffee? Fire. Food? Amazing. Staff? All good vibes. Real talk, I would've waited two hours and still left happy. 10/10, I'm coming back--and next time I'm bringing stretchy pants read more

My wife and I have been here a couple times and my wife at least one more time. We've had a great experience each time. My wife sat at the counter with our daughter, and said that was a lot of fun. My wife and I were there yesterday and I got I half dozen chicken wings and she got a fried shrimp wrap with a side of sautéed spinach. All the food was really good, the wings are roasted in the oven, not fried, so they were more tender than I expected. Which was good. The buffalo sauce was good and came with whatever dressing I wanted, of course I picked blue cheese. Our server, Dianna was very sweet, and very polite and proper. She was very kind and apologetic if things were taking a while, I overheard her speak to the other tables she was serving. And she kept our drinks refilled efficiently. We also got the bread pudding for dessert which was good also, but my wife who is somewhat of a dessert connoisseur, felt it should've been a thicker slice of bread. But we gobbled it up no matter what! This place is definitely doing things right, it got pretty busy and there were a lot of DoorDash orders as well. Sorry, no pictures this time read more

Another wonderful time at Dear Dads! Busy as always so be prepared to wait at any time in the day. Got Fernando's Plate this time around, which comes with a waffle, choice of two meats, eggs, a side, and choice of bread. A loaded meal for sure. I opted for sausage and corned beef hash, sausage gravy for the side, and biscuit. The waffle was perfect, nice and crispy on the outside but fluffy on the inside. The biscuit was fluffy and buttery and went perfectly with a spread of peach jam. I topped mine with a sausage patty and the gravy as well and it was phenomenal! We of course will be back! read more

Upon entering to get my order, I immediately noticed the lively, clean atmosphere of the restaurant. All the tables were filled, the waiters busy, and everyone seemed happy. While I waited for my order, they offered me a complimentary cup of ice water and a seat. It was very refreshing after a long day outside! My order was ready early. Parking was very easygoing, it was not difficult to get in or out of the place like other restaurants on Battleground. The beignets were so soft and delicious! They had just enough powdered sugar for flavor without making a mess, and the chocolate sauce was creamy and tasteful. I would definitely come here again! read more

I have been so many times and EVERY TIME, the customer service has been Excellent!! The ambience is still giving Waffle House vibes but I'm hoping to have a different opinion when they roll out their new location! Now for the food, it's giving comeback every day if you need too and try something new or as they say, "if it ain't broke don't fix it" and get the same thing. I started with an iced Brown Sugar Coffee. For Brunch I had 3 stack of pancakes with Strawberry topping and I had to try the Red Velvet pancake with cream cheese drizzle....DELICIOUS I will continue to go back and absolutely can't wait for the new location to open! read more

Dear Dad's is always a home run. The other day my boyfriend mentioned that he wanted French toast but of course it was 7 PM lol he asked if I knew of anywhere that would serve French toast at that time of night and I checked dear dad's website and sure enough they had not one, but I think three or even five options. I was able to make reservations for 45 minutes from the time I looked on the website which was a great thing because dear Dad's is always busy. I at first thought I was going to also get French toast, but then I saw Chile Keys on the menu. I couldn't decide between red or Verde salsa, but I know for the future the Red is certainly the way to go. The servers are genuinely so helpful. They do their best to get everybody in and out quickly. The only thing that in my opinion was a little weird on the night that we went was the "live music.." honestly not just us but the surrounding tables all discussed if it was karaoke or if the singers were really that bad. Not sure if you can tell by the videos, but it was quite the experience. This absolutely does not take away from the food or the ambience and I think that having live music is a great touch when it's done right. read more

This is definitely going on my list of Greensboro Favorites. We came for a Saturday brunch and our first visit was simply awesome. First things first, parking is a little tight. We were lucky in finding a spot pretty easily. But come prepared to be patient. Inside is also a little tight, but they made it work pretty nicely. The hostess stand is immediate inside the door. They offer several two-person and four-person tables inside as well as a few four-person tables outside. For larger groups, they got a little creative. They have used an outdoor shelter to offer 6-person patio tables in a grassy area on the other side of the parking lot. It was perfect for us. The manager mentioned plans of renovating that space in the near future. Now to the important stuff. The food was AWESOME! I started with a hot Brown Sugar Latte. Both the presentation and the taste were great. Our waitress recommended the Biscoff Latte, which my hubby tried, and she was right; it's a winner. For my meal, I went with the Chef's Special. I highly recommend it. It's a Red Velvet Waffle with Hand-breaded Chicken Strips. It also comes with a side. It may not look like much, but it was very filling. They don't have a Kid's Menu but my toddlers split the Classic Plate and it was perfect for them. Everything came out fresh and at the perfect temperature. Other notes: - The hostess, the servers, and the manager were all amazing. Everyone was very personable and helpful. We never felt rushed even though it was clearly busy. - They have plans to open a second location near downtown Greensboro. - The restroom was nice and clean. Again, I HIGHLY recommend Dear Dad's. I can't wait to go back. read more

This was my second visit and got lucky on a Thursday night finding space at Dear Dads. This is a tight little diner that serves awesome food. I'd had the Cajun Pasta before and really loved it. This trip I stuck with the Louisiana theme and went with the jambalaya. Great choice! The combination of chicken, sausage, and meaty shrimp combined with the spicy rice made this a wonderful meal. And so much I got to have leftovers the next day. The added garlic toast was just the right touch. So what am I going to try on the next visit? Whatever it is, will be delicious! read more

Tried out Dear Dad's today for lunch. The vibes are immaculate, very bright and trendy. The menu had a lot of great options to choose from for breakfast and lunch/dinner. Our waitress was incredible and very attentive. The food was also phenomenal and very savory. I have the chicken and waffles and my friend have the birria quesadillas. Both of us had plenty of leftovers. Not a ton of seating and even on a random Thursday for an early lunch (11am), had to wait a bit to be seated. Would definitely go back. read more

Cute boutique sized restaurant with a large menu. Seems to be the neighborhood Sunday favorite as it was jammed pack with a 40 minute wait for 1-2 people. The food was so bland. I never put additional salt n pepper on eggs, but I did for this meal. The food wasn't that great and not worth a long wait. Biscoff latte is great for those who enjoy really sweet drinks. My son ordered the steak and eggs ...also bland and asked for a new one which came out exactly the same...bland. They have a cute photo op in the waiting area, too many people were standing around so I didn't get a pic. Ladies, dress in pink if you want your IG pics here.

I came here after a group recommended the place and I was very pleased. It's a very sweet location, great decor, and a chill vibe. The service was excellent. It was too crowded for me to get a table so I sat at the counter, which was okay, but it was nice to see all the action. I ordered a Decaf Pistachio Latte and loved it. Very flavorful. The French Toast with Eggs, Bacon, and the side of fruit was delicious. The French Toast was a good flavor and texture, the bacon crispy, and the eggs were scrambled to perfection. An overall good plate of food. Next time I'm in Greensboro I'll definitely return to this spot. read more

Such a cool local spot with great service and cute decor. My food was better than I expected given the menu has such a variety and I couldn't really tell what their specialty was. I guess everything is their specialty. We had a reservation so there was no problem with seating but I could imagine them typically having a long wait since it is so small. I had the bourbon shrimp and chicken which was cooked perfectly. Also the mashed potatoes and gravy looked like they were out of a tv dinner but complimented the flavors of the protein very well. The string beans were lightly cooked so still had a nice crunch with seasoning. Everyone was super helpful, patient and quick with service. 9.5/10 experience read more

The staff truly made this a 4‑star experience. Everyone was incredibly friendly, including the manager, and their energy set a great tone from the start. As for the food, this place has been hyped up, so I wanted to see what the excitement was about. Honestly, I wasn't impressed. It tasted like standard breakfast fare, and nothing really stood out. I ordered Ali's Favorite with the turkey sausage patty, fried eggs, grits, a biscuit, and a waffle. The turkey patty was dry and lacked flavor. The grits and eggs were pretty good, and the waffle was fine, but again--nothing memorable. The biscuit, unfortunately, was very dry and basically inedible. Like others have mentioned, the space is tight--both inside and in the parking lot. I felt pretty claustrophobic indoors, and it definitely took away from the overall experience. Maybe I'll come back during a less busy time (whenever that might be) and try something other than breakfast, but my first visit wasn't stellar. read more

Like majority of us I found this restaurant on TikTok . Though nervous I was pleasantly surprised. All staff not just our server were attentive and contributed to the overall experience. Being that the restaurant is so small we were really happy to be sat right away without waiting . The Strawberries and Crème french toast was my favorite . The crème definitely sets its apart from any other local restaurant with strawberry french toast . I would've loved a little more "cajun" in the Cajun chicken pasta but that may just be an overall personal preference. The beignets were more so like airfryed puffed pastry .I would say overall this is a nice breakfast and brunch spot , everything that we ordered from the lunch and dinner menu was just a little lackluster overall . Nonetheless we'll be back . read more

I've been to Dear Dads twice and both times had good experiences. Each visit did come with a 30-60 minute wait, but the location is clean and the staff are very attentive. Their Biscoff latte is amazing, such a treat! The menu also includes a few Mexican-style breakfast favorites like chilaquiles and huevos rancheros. The breakfast burrito was a nice in between option if you're not in the mood for something too big or too small. I also tried the skillet with potatoes, bell peppers, smoked sausage, and sourdough bread, which was very tasty, though I felt the balance was a little off. I only got like three pieces of sausage compared to a lot of potatoes. Prices are reasonable too! The main reason I can't give five stars is the parking situation. It took me 25-30 minutes to find a spot without risking parking in a nearby lot and getting towed. The lot is very tight, and twice on one occasion I even saw people nearly fight over a space. While I know that's not fully under Dear Dads' control, it might help if they had a parking attendant during peak times, or at least a cone to indicate when the lot is full (and remove it once spaces open up). read more

Dear Dad's is the kind of place that surprises you in the best way. Yes, it's a diner, and yes, it used to be a Waffle House (the layout gives it away), but it's been completely reimagined with an expansive, elevated menu that delivers something for everyone, any time of day. We came in for lunch and were greeted with friendly service from the moment we sat down. Tables can be a bit snug, especially when it's busy, but the welcoming vibe makes up for it. Sage, the owner, even made his rounds and introduced himself. A really nice touch that gives the place that extra dose of charm. The triple decker club sandwich was solid and satisfying, but the birria tacos were the standout, seriously some of the best we've ever had. Rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. My wife went for one of the coffee specials, a caramel iced coffee with whipped cream and biscotti, and it was decadent, fun, and delicious. Also worth calling out: the fresh squeezed orange juice is no joke. Bright, cold, and absolutely worth getting. Whether you're craving breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Dear Dad's hits that sweet spot of comfort food with elevated flavors. It's diner food, but done better, and we'll absolutely be back. read more

Best food and fast service. Can't wait to try more things on the menu. The place is decorated in such a beautiful way.

We've eaten there on a few occasions. We've only eaten breakfast. The food and service has always been good. But tables are so close together. It makes you feel like you are eating with strangers. If the party on either side of you arrives or leaves it is disruptive to your meal. read more

Small, quaint place with great service, quick food output, and all-day breakfast. The gravy was thick and seasoned well and the pancake was cocoa-forward without being overly sweet. The home fries were overcooked (but I'll look past that). Overall, a great meal that was very satisfying (including the drinks which was some type of hibiscus tea blend). read more

I finally made it back to Dear Dads! I had been there before for an event. But today was the first time I had ordered food. After waiting a long time for a parking spot we were finally able to join our friends who already had a table outside. Although they cannot control the parking situation it can be rough to say the least. I then ordered some fried pickles and a Spanish Latte. Both were absolutely delicious and I loved the sauce for the pickles! For my main I ordered the Birria bowl. It was okay but I thought "Birria" tasted more like pulled beef and didn't have much flavor. For dessert we had to get the beignets. As they are so good! Overall I really like Dear Dads but I would try to avoid it on a busy weekend unless you don't mind waiting a bit. read more

We have been hearing a lot about Dear Dad's for quite some time and it is highly rated here on Yelp, so we we decided to try it. My wife and I and another couple went in for dinner around 5:30 pm. As ambience goes, Dear Dad's is a nice appealing restaurant. It is billed as a diner, and it has that diner feel. Very light and airy decor. It is inviting. The four of us tried very different menu items. I had the jambalaya, my wife had the sweet chili chicken and shrimp, our friends had the seafood duo, and the bourbon chicken and shrimp. The first thing I have to say is that what I ordered was not a jambalaya. It had cheese on top (jambalaya does not come with cheese on top) and the sauce was more akin to an Italian red sauce than it was a Cajun jambalaya. the couple who joined us are from Louisiana and immediately said "that is not a jambalaya". There was not much spice at all. It was tasty in its own way, but it was not what the name Indicated. Also the rice was minimal and it needed to have more to be a true jambalaya. I can really sum up the other meals by saying that on the positive side, the food is fresh, the flavors are good, but there was nothing that stood out. The shrimp was similar to what you would find in most other restaurants. The chicken had good flavor but once again there was nothing extraordinary about it. The same can be said for the sides. Put simply none of the food wowed us and we are not that hard to wow. There was nothing we had that we didn't feel we could find at a number of other restaurants in town. We had hoped for a lot more. Since Dear Dad's bills itself primarily as a breakfast, brunch and lunch restaurant, perhaps we need to come back and try the breakfast fair. As for the dinner, the food had good flavor, but there was nothing special about it. It just did not match the hype. One minor thing to mention. They have a number of tables for two and then they have some very large comfortable looking booths that can seat 4 to 6 people. We walked in the door along with a party of two. The party of two was seated at the final big available booth, leaving us to deal with two small tables pushed together for the four of us. In fact all the booths had only two people in them and there were four empty tables of two when we walked in. read more

If you can get past the atrocious parking situation everything else is fine and dandy. I am fairly certain this is a remodeled waffle house so the parking lot is tight and doesn't accommodate the amount of people who are flocking to try the restaurant. That being said once we were finally seated the service was great and fairly quick. The menu is expansive offering breakfast (all day), lunch, and dinner. I had an omelet, breakfast potatoes and a biscuit. My food was good. I asked for strawberry jam for my biscuit and that jam was amazing you could just taste the fact that it was made fresh there. They have outdoor seating which is nice but also seems to put staff in danger in the cramped parking lot. Overall I like the vibe and ambiance of this place and I'd definitely return. read more
