I came here for breakfast to include biscuits & gravy, and added sausage patties. Their coffee is hot and freshly made, and their food is delicious. read more

Loved it! We have been coming up here to the hospital district every weekend for 5 months and decided to finally try this out and it was awesome! Both wife and I had the #1 breakfast and it was a ton of food. You will leave here with a full stomach for sure. Food was great, service was great and you will feel like you are in the 1950s. They were busy on a Sunday morning but line moves fast. Will definitely be back. read more

Loved it! My friend and I sat at the breakfast bar and really enjoyed it. The food was delivered hot and fast, and was delish. It was fun to dine at the counter and watch the entire "machine" in action. I especially loved their B&G and hash browns. So so delish! Will definitely return! read more

While down in the hospital district had to stop by for lunch. Great diner ambiance and wait staff. Small can be crowded and noisy but delicious home cooking. They serve breakfast all day and we were tempted but my friend came for their liver & onions, with spinach & macaroni & cheese. She enjoyed every bite along with the brown gravy it came with. I went with one of the lunch specials a smaller portion for $12.95. A giant Cabbage roll stuffed with rice and pork and covered in a creole sauce with one side fried okra. Food was great and so much I had plenty for another meal. Also rolls and cornbread. read more

The food is always good. It might take a while to get served, but they keep the coffee flowing, which essentially makes up for the service. The ambiance is an old-school diner fashion and could use a facelift. read more

Our usual go to for breakfast in Dallas. I always get the Denver omelette, which is always consistently good. They've up to their game with their coffee lately too going to a better brand. It's a quick In-N-Out service is always friendly and the prices are reasonable. In a major metropolitan area you can't beat any of that. read more

What I love about this place is the old time customer service. Everyone rushing around to take your order and follow up to make sure everything is okay. Used the short Express Menu today. Old fashioned ~ 2 eggs over medium, grits, bacon, biscuits and gravy. Fresh coffee. Good news you can swap menu items around to your liking. Food came out hot and was very good. Although the Diner is old, menus a bit tattered, not fancy, however, clean restaurant, and customers are friendly. Restrooms are tiny but that's ok. Open early. They close at 3p every day. Serve breakfast all day. Both lunches and desserts are tasty. So much to choose from.... Located just down the road from UT Southwestern and Parkland Hospitals. read more

This was a cute old-fashioned diner, and our waiter was very kind, but the food was very underwhelming. It was in need of major seasoning. I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger and jt tasted like the patty was unsalted. The other guests with me said their food was also just ok. A better diner option is maple leaf diner in carrolton. read more

Such great diner ambience because it has actual history a family story, not to mention handed down recipes. Original owners were Greek, so there's a gyro on the menu and even an omlette with gyro meat inside. I tried that and it was amazing. Hash browns were very good as well. Companions had chicken fried chicken and a French dip. Both got good reviews. We all shared a piece of coconut cream pie, which was delicious. Lots of booths in the restaurant-- just the touch I want in a diner. This might be my go-to place for brunch and lunch on Harry Hines near Dallas' UTSW medical district. read more

Service was really great and food came out fast! My lemon with tea was pretty funny but I enjoy lots of lemon juice so I didn't mind too much. My apple pancakes were so delicious and filled me up completely! My friend's food was also good according to them read more

We had an excellent brunch here on July 4th! It was packed, but we got seated after a 15 min wait and service was great despite how busy it was. I also love all the sauces, syrups, and jams at each table. We got the blueberry waffle, and I loved the waffle but did not like the blueberry sauce, I wish it had real blueberries instead. I loved the biscuits-they were buttery and soft. I also liked the Ranchero omelete, but wish the salsa had more flavor. The hashbrowns were perfectly crispy! Overall, we had an excellent meal here. read more

Take a step back in time to the early 1950's at the Original Market Diner. While the decor fits the era this place was built and adds to the ambiance of the place, the prices are far from those of the 1950's. Example, just under $17.00 for an omelette! The food was just ok, not great and certainly not bad. I ordered a Ham & Cheese Omelette that came with Hash Browns and Biscuits and Gravy. We also tried the Pancakes. I enjoyed the light and fluffy biscuits and the hashed browns the most. My grandma used to say "some pancakes need a little more syrup than others". These were pancakes that needed extra syrup! The service was great, absolutely nothing to be critical or uncomplimentary there about. Our server Laura was fantastic. read more

We came here after day one of martial arts state finals. It was right next to our hotel. Figured why not? Overall our experience was great. First the place felt like a part out of a horror film. Not a typical classic diner, but a dark classic diner. Like twilight zone. I don't know, that's what the midget said? I thought it was cool. A little rough, but it kinda was cool. Ok onto the food. The service was ok. I think it's because we went right before they closed, and we felt a bit rushed. We kept it simple, and just had burgers and the jalapeño mozzarella sticks. Let's start with the appetizer. They were actually good. They mixed the jalapeño flavor into the breading. You can see the jalapeño on the outside of the sticks! Great idea and it works! Wish they were actually spicy. Still good! He had the bacon cheeseburger, and I had the jalapeño cheeseburger. The buns were great, the beef could've used more seasoning. They give you tons of fries! Where they were creative with the mozzarella sticks, my jalapeño burger was just a burger with pickled Jalapeño slices from a can thrown on top. Not creative at all, and a little disappointing. Like a reach to charge more. We had dessert, hard not too when you are sitting next to the case. We asked for a recommendation and were told carrot cake and banana cream pie. They were both great, but the carrot cake was by far better. Not too sweet, not too much carrot. Just right. The other pie was just ok. Also, a HUGE plus is they had stevia at the table! I wish more restaurants had it! We will come back when we are back, to try more of the menu! read more

Came on a Sunday at 11am. I had to wait maybe 3 minutes before I was seated. This place is way bigger than it seems, and there is alot of hustle and bustle within the booths and stalls. My server was going above and beyond, checking in on us every so often and giving us drinks to go when we didnt ask for them. She was probably working 6+ tables so I was quite impressed. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese. It also came with lettuce, tomato, mayo, and mustard. I thought it was OK, but wasnt as amazing I was hoping. I feel the sausage could have had more browning or been thicker. The sandwich didnt pop as much in flavor as I would have hoped. My girlfriend got the pork chops with an egg. The pork chops were actually really good! They must be swimming in butter before they throw them on the griddle with the way they looked and tasted. I will say after 15 minutes, the pork chops end up pretty dry on the last bites, so dont linger when eating these. They serve hashbrowns like a giant casserole slab, which was fine since there was still some charred texture on the outside. I didnt think I would ever come here, because it looked like typical, mediocre diner food. While I wasnt off with it being typical diner food, I thought that for most of the food they serve, they do a fairly good job. If you order the right stuff, and eat it within 10 minutes, this is a traditional american diner thats enjoyable when you dont want anything fancy and youre in this particular area. read more

My friend and I came to Dallas for a concert the night before. We were searching up places to eat when we checked out of our hotel. We say that Original Market Diner was a half a mile down from where we were. So we decided to head there. When we first walked in, I was greeted with the buzzing conversations from the customers and the waiters taking orders. Although the diner was busy, as soon as we walked in, we were greeted and sat down. Our waiter, Laura, came a minute later. She warmly greeted us and gave us time to look over the menu. She was even went out of her way to get us warm syrup for our waffles. It was nice to be in a real diner and not today's mock up, franchise breakfast places. Although the diner was small, it was not uncomfortable, it actually felt warm and welcoming. I enjoyed my meal here and would return with more friends once I head back to Dallas this fall. read more

Local classic, I've lived within walking distance of this diner for the longest time, but only recently ventured in. Walking in, you feel the classic diner vibe. A mix of booths, tables, and the kitchen side bar. Low indoor lighting but plenty of windows allowing natural light in. The location has plenty of foot traffic but no wait. There's a melodic comfort hearing the kitchen, and others conversing. It's an inviting place. My waitress was very attentive and friendly. She was quick to bring me my water and coffee, not long after taking my order. I ordered the classic eggs with sausage, hashbrowns, and biscuits & gravy. The food arrived fresh with my eggs cooked to perfection. The sausage was a little dry but still delicious. The biscuits were fresh and the perfect sponge to soak up the yolks. The food was as you'd expect from a diner hitting the spot after a long night out. I'm eager to come back and try some of their other options. Highly recommend! read more

For the meatloaf sandwich with fries and my wife got the chicken dumplings. My sandwich had a very good taste and my fries were perfectly hot and crispy. The chicken dumpling was flavorful for a dumpling. The chicken and dumpling came with corn bread and yeast rolls. The corn bread was a little dry but the yeast rolls were on point. The ambiance reminded me of a 1950's dinner. The waitress made sure that we never ran out of tea. Only complaint was that I got full before I had a chance to get some of the pie in the case. Maybe next time. read more

Hubby said "it's lunch time and there is this diner that I know is right in tune with your vintage living heart"! So off we went to the Original Market Diner! It's pretty small so adjust your schedule and time to accommodate a possible wait. We were there for an early lunch around 11:30 and zero wait time. The original part of the diner only has a counter and just a few booths and tables but it's so cute! Our waitress obviously is a long term employee who was knowledgeable, friendly and fast. She even apologized that my cup of coffee was drained before she filled it. I laughed and no problem I kind of gulped it down pretty quickly today. Ordered the iced cinnamon roll. French toast and hubby ordered the wild pig omelette with toast and hashbrowns. It was delish! Super cool vibe, great staff and good food. Be advised though it is a little pricier than other places, but it is also near downtown and Maple. You will see a wonderful mix of Dallasites from blue collar to white collar enjoying the food. So if you're looking for old-school diner with upscale food, this is your place! read more

What to say... It is everything you ever imagine as a diner. Small, cozy and welcoming. The staff are excellent and great you like family even on your first visit. I say first because there will be many more, you will be back. I eat breakfast there when I visit. Everything is always cooked perfectly. Eggs are never over cooked or under cooked, and the bacon is crispy when I ask for it that way. The coffee is every bit nostalgic. Dark, Rick and put hair on your chest kinda classic coffee. Eat here, you won't regret it. read more

Went here for lunch for the first time with my grandparents this week. I haven't been to a diner in forever and it felt like the perfect place to take my grandparents. It was so cute inside! Just what I was hoping for. They decorated for Christmas which was a nice surprise. The service was okay, our waitress didn't say much to us. She came by a few times asking if we needed anything but personality wise was pretty cold. Food was yummy, and a great portion!! Their lunch menu was a great deal price wise. You get a lot of food for a very reasonable price. I would say the feed needed a ton of seasoning, and I added a ton of salt, but it was still good. The hash browns were nice and crispy and the eggs were yummy! My grandmother loved her meatloaf. The rolls they gave were amazing!! So yummy. I will definitely be coming back for lunch sometime. read more

Best biscuits ever. Enough said. Service was great and the portions were very generous.
