Theresa was a fantastic cook and personality, very quick and on point with the service, I ordered the Slinger and she recommended some options, the end result was more then expected, eggs cooked perfectly alongside the hashbrowns for the foundation of the breakfast entree with a generous portion of chili and onions and cheese! And my dining partner got a percectly cooked Ham and Cheese Omelet with just right American Fries. We drove from Woodson Terrace by the Airport and would not hesitate to do so again. 10/10 would recommend!

No frills diner serving tasty breakfast items. Old school decor and old school service which means friendly, fast at a good price. Lady working the grill knew her job- watching her handle multiple orders like a boss was a treat. This is the only location I’ve been to (there are 4-5 other locations) and I’ll return again. If you are looking for an easy going diner with well priced items that are tasty, give them a look. Cash only.

Worst service ever. Waitress gaves us coffee but never came to take our order while we sat at the counter. She.oroceeded to take order for 4 others that came in 10 minutes after us and then began making their food, but still never took our order. Some guy, maybe Dave, was busy counting the register money the whole time we were there. When we got up and walked out, they both looked totally clueless as to why we were leaving. DON'T EVER GO TO THIS PLACE. WE WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE AGAIN. !!!!!

We met friends at Dave's for breakfast. They had their adorable 2 year old granddaughter with them. From the moment we arrived until we paid the bill. It was a great experience. If you are fine with simple, clean, really great staff and customers enjoying their meal, you will love Dave's Diner on Lindbergh! We sure did! Thank you for a great start to a Saturday!
Happy Customers

Beware of Darkness

For years, I've gone to concerts. It's tradition to hit up a 24-hour diner for food after a fun night of music. Sadly, Covid killed off most 24 hour sit down diners. We had been going to Denny's after the last few shows, but their quality has gotten horrible.

This brings me to my visit at Dave's Diner. After we saw Green Day, I did a quick Google search and found this one beacon of light open 24 hours. I'm so glad we stopped in! The guy who waited on us and cooked our food was awesome! My country fried steak was tender and cooked to perfection. So many times, places overcook it, and it's tough. Not this man, he nailed it! The American fries I had as a side were also expertly cooked and very delicious. My over easy eggs were also exemplary. I took a few bites before I snapped a picture, but it looked so good!

This is now my go-to post concert diner. If you're looking for excellent late night diner food, this is your place! I can't recommend it enough!
