I had a wonderful meal here. I ordered a chicken bacon ranch wrap and the person I was with ordered the chicken fried steak; and they have a nice little gift shop area at the front of the store where you first walk in where they allow people to sell stuff on consignment. It was really good and reasonably priced and I will be eating here again. read more

Traveling from Alabama to look at a house to buy in town. Stopped to eat at Daisy's Diner. I ordered the bomb stuffed burger with fries-was expecting an average boring tasteless burger and fries from a an average small town diner....let me tell you.... They must put crack in it! Absolutely full of flavor I can taste every single ingredient and it all blended together so well! It was like Disney land for my mouth! My husband got a bumpers burger and a side of squash- incredible! Squash was amazing! And my fries absolutely perfectly crispy! Then I tried the buttermilk pie! First time I have ever heard of it! Tried it and it was amazing! Definitely planning on visiting this restaurant again! Great food and service ! Now I have to make sure we buy our house near it! read more

Fried pickles were amazing, but the rest was disappointing. Chicken taco salad, and the onion rings were bland. The beef taco salad was ok but nothing special. read more

Always good food and service staff is always friendly and ready to help. My favorite dish is the mushroom chicken yummy yummy

It doesn't look like much from the outside but the food was fresh and delicious!!! Wide variety of menu choices. Fantastic wait staff!

Very unpleasant experience Not one thing special about the restaurant or their food. Just average food and hard seating read more

What a fun place to go when visiting our child at SHSU! The food was really good and hits the stop when wanting a homestyle dinner. read more

Daisy's Diner - Breakfast plate and two chicken fried steak plates with cabbage and loaded mashed potatoes. - Diners Near Me - Riverside, Texas

Food was great! The kids enjoyed their food and only place I know to get liver/gizzards. Big room to accommodate our family gathering. Great staff! read more

I've been there when they have screwed up an order and at admitted an it. They are gracious and happily correct it.

The food is delicious. The service is good most of the time. The owner is extremely friendly, there's a little country store, and plenty of seating. They have daily specials. read more

The food is always hot and tasty. The service is always great. The restaurant is clean and has a gift shop area. Prices are very reasonable. Foods are cooked like home cooked meals. We have been there several times and it's very consistent in food quality and quantity. read more

If you are looking for a home-cooked style meal then this is the place. It's not fancy, but the parking lot is always full and now I know why. My wife and I stopped in for dinner after a ride in the country. We had chicken livers and catfish. Both were EXCELLENT! The livers were not dry or overcooked. The catfish was fresh and flaky. The sides (okra, loaded mashed taters) were as good as the entrees. We took home some banana pudding for dessert. Some of the best we've ever had! The menu had a better-than-average selection of goodies, including some hard-to-find items. Good selection of drinks, but no alcohol. This is a home-style family restaurant. They have a small gift shop in the front that sells country-style home decor, spiritually uplifting items, and patriotic gifts. The restaurant (floor, tables, chairs, windows, silverware, lights) is very clean. The servers are a hard-working bunch. They were always on the move. Our server made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us often. They are a really friendly bunch too. Bottom line: If you are looking for a nice place to take the family and eat some tasty, wholesome, home-style food you'll not find a better place in a hundred miles! I highly recommend it. Say hi if you you see me there! read more

Omg! Passing through and we see this diner. It's packed with cars. We passed it at first cause not really hungry, but seeing all the cars...yeah... decided best to turn around. Know what? This is seriously good cooking. Traditional stuff on the menu along with some grandma like treats. Got a burger that was the bomb. Soooo good! Kinda like just perfect! I'm glad we stopped. Otherwise...we'd have missed out. Come here. Eat....enjoy! Pies look awesome but too stuffed to try it! read more

Daisy's Diner - Burger paradise! - Diners Near Me - Riverside, Texas

I have been living in Riverside for over 40 yrs and before this place became Daisys it was an ok place but everyone smoked in the restaurant and even if I smoked I don't smoke when I eat, Daisy made the change, and man was it that a good thing. Their food is a great and good home cook meal with no cigarette smell in the place. Food at a good price made to order. If you are in Huntsville or just driving by it's a must-stop place if you like home cooking. PS The Chicken Mushroom is the best read more

First time to visit this restaurant. Had the fried chicken livers, Lima beans and mashed potatoes. Food is incredibly delicious, wait staff was very attentive and observant to our table. Very clean inside. Highly recommend! read more

The best chicken fried chicken I have eaten!!! I haven't ordered anything I didn't enjoy from Daisy's. So good.

Service was great! Food too! It's a great place to take the family or just the two of you

We've been to Daisy's Diner a couple of times and the food was great both times. The food has been fresh and very tasty. Now the grandchildren ask to go there eveytime we visit Riverside. Oh and the staff has been very friendly and helpful. 10 out 10, will go again. read more

Prices have gone up a little bit but the food is great as always; I've gone to daisys more than a few times and I've never had bad service. Would recommend 10/10. read more

We love Daisy's Diner! It's nothing fancy and has a small town, country feel, but the service is always very friendly and the food is home cooked and tasty! read more

Found this diner on our eat way to go camping. Drove up in our RV to a very busy parking lot. Very warm welcome as we walked in. It's a seat yourself type of diner (which are my favorite places to eat). Walked through the small gift shop to get to the dining room. Very friendly staff and some great home country cooking food. I had steak fingers (WOW) that were so good! Grandson had popcorn chicken which he gave a thumbs up, and hubby had a burger that he said was really good. Life's to short so we always have dessert . Bread pudding and key lime pie OH MY! This is one of those diners that we'll definitely make a trip to from Houston. read more

Just ate at the Daisy Diner for the first time and I will be back. Service was fantastic and the food was amazing! We arrived when it opened at 11am and by 11:30 every table was filled! read more

The food was excellent!! I was pleased with the price and amount of food. I highly recommend this diner.

My husband had Daisy's cater a work event today. They had bacon cheeseburgers with ALL the fixings!! I was super jealous until he brought us two burgers home for dinner!!! To say this is the best burger I've ever eaten is an understatement!!! The patty itself was huge!! Nestled on top of a huge sesame seed bun!! The bacon was cooked to perfection and was still crispy! The condiments were so fresh and delicious! Crisp lettuce, bright red tomatoes, onions, and pickles!! There isn't one complaint from me!!! Everything was perfect!! read more

Great country diner! Love the laid back atmosphere and particularly the fried squash.

I used to come here a lot when I was younger, but the last time I went... I received a really bad chicken, I was supposed to be the sautéed chicken (with buffalo ranch) and it gave me food poisoning... I'm aware that they had about two hours before closed... But please don't rush food, especially chicken. Because me and my boyfriend were both puking and holding ourselves over the toilet all night. It was pretty ig though. read more

Down in the area for summer camp drop off and found this place down the road. So glad we did!! Super nice people, good food options and good food. The place could use a facelift but worth a stop nevertheless. The food took a while to come out, which was our biggest complaint. But the blackberry cobbler came in a cute jar and we enjoyed it. Would stop by again if in the area. read more

I drove by this diner for years until this month and called in an order. The lady I spoke with was very helpful and suggested the mushroom Swiss burger and fries. She said it would be 20 minutes being right around lunchtime which was reasonable. I came inside after parking (plenty of parking). It looks a converted store with three separate sections. Everyone was friendly and helpful- the menu looked really good and I found some other things on the menu that looked good. It took awhile to get the food but it was still warm. The burger was very good and the fries were so so. Not a single person wearing a mask so hopefully there is not an outbreak around here because everyone there would have been infected. Overall very good. read more

Food is fantastic, we had catfish and the Dirty Harry, sides were mashed potatoes, cabbage, broccoli casserole, greens and we ate every last bite it was so good! Kids meals were good portions and tasty too. Diner is clean, and they have fast and friendly service. Will definitely be back. read more

This place completely sets you back into the dark ages with the atmosphere and the lighting in makes it seems like they are hiding something. The service is below sub-standard and no one seems to care about their job or customer service. Then you eat and it doesn't taste too bad but you will regret it when you get home and can't sleep. read more

Being here for lunch felt like I was an extra in a movie. It was so surreal, sitting in such a small, quaint, country diner with the banjo player twiddling away. Oh wait, there wasn't a banjo player? I must have just imagined it, as it would have been so fitting in this setting. I got chicken fried chicken, which was drenched in a thick white gravy. The chicken was battered and crispy. The french fries were perfectly crispy. The corn was corn. The Texas toast was Texas toast. Overall, a pretty average meal, but a notch above all the other establishments in Riverside,Tx. All 5 restaurants, that is.... read more

This place is awesome! Home cooked food like Grandma used to make .Very nice, helpful and friendly waitresses, very clean and just an all around great dining experience with very reasonable prices. The wife and I eat there when we go to Tallent`s sausage factory across the highway when the freezer gets a little low on sausage. And then sometimes we just jump in the truck and drive up there from Willis just to eat lunch. We try to get there around 11:am and try to beat the big lunch crowd. Prison guards and working people from all walks of life flog to this place for lunch. Well worth the drive any time! read more

Amazing place!! Great atmosphere!!! Catfish was delicious, best hush puppies we've had, amazing sides and the Peach Cobbler was fantastic! Highly Recommend!!! read more

Everytime I've been there the food is amazing. Where else can you get Pecan cobbler? NOWHERE! Tonight I had the pepper jack burger. ABSOLUTELY delicious! The service is stellar and it seems that everyone who works there really enjoys doing do. read more

Always very friendly service! Maybe a few healthier options on the menu wouldn't hurt but everything is delicious and the staff is great.

We were in the country for staff retreat. Came into town for evening meal. This little diner was not crowded so we were concerned. You could tell that it was a popular place because the locals were getting meals to go. We were able to be seated immediately. The wait staff was pleasantly sarcastic. We enjoyed the kidding. Tried the deep fried bacon. It was perfect. The choices for main entrees was country cooking. There may have been healthy choices on the menu but who cares when you can eat real food. Prices were reasonable. All in all a good experience. I had the fried shrimp. Others in the group ate the stuffed burgers. (A unique creation. ). The fried catfish was also good. No complaints about the food. read more
