Dove's Luncheonette offers a welcoming atmosphere with a cozy diner vibe. The restaurant serves delicious breakfast options, including the must-order Dove's Deluxe, and features an impressive Mezcal selection. The food is consistently amazing, and it's a great spot for a quick meal or a leisurely bite.
Customers praise the friendly staff, delicious brisket, and creative dishes like the Al pastor fries with chipotle aioli and the Ceasar salad with a sunny side up egg. The portions are generous, and the cocktails and selection of tequila and mezcal are also highly regarded. Despite the popularity of the restaurant, the turnover of tables is usually not too bad, and its convenient location right off the Blue line makes it a favorite among locals and visitors alike.
The restaurant has a vintage diner vibe and the food leans towards Mexican cuisine. Customers have enjoyed the brisket hash, which is one of the best meals they've ever had. The restaurant offers housemade sauces and condiments, including a chili/garlic/sesame oil that is highly recommended for eggs or potatoes. The mimosas are also praised as being the best ever. The music, which is all vinyl, includes older, Tejano and Cumbia music, as well as other genres that create a fantastic atmosphere.
