    Chicken fried steak
    Brandy E.

    We were very impressed. Everyone greets you when you walk in. The staff is so nice and friendly even other waitstaff will stop by your table and ask if you need more coffee or drinks. My husband never ran out of tea which is a job it self! Larry was our waiter and he is the best! I had the chicken fried steak with fried potatoes, eggs, and fruit. Is was hand breaded, so tender, tasty and huge! I cut half of it off and gave it to my husband. He loved it too. He said his biscuits were light and fluffy. He said breakfast was wonderful and it was the best breakfast he had in a long time and that's saying a lot! He is a nit picker and always complains and he loves this place. I highly recommend coming here.

    This place was fantastic! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. They're a well oiled machine - everyone working together. They're super attentive. The place is clean & well organized. We will be back!

    Now this was a pleasant surprise. I grew up down the street and waffle way has always been here. Pretty strange walking in and it being gone. But this place? Amazing. The food, service and unsweet tea were great. The biscuits were some of the best I've ever had. Also the chicken was fried to perfection. They have a massive menu so you're bound to get what will satisfy your brunch needs. Can't wait to make it back!

    This place is like your personal chef cooked breakfast for you! The food is fantastic and the service is top notch! My first trip here but friends and family have raved about it. Of course I wanted to try it all but that wasn't possible. Deliciousness- veggie scramble, eggs Benedict, perfect potatoes, best ever biscuits, and a light, fluffy waffle were soooooo good. Thank goodness my partner in crime was with me so I could try everything! Mackenzie was delightful in helping us with choices and service. Owners Jenna and Geno (sp?) are the nicest people. Can't wait to go back!

    The remodeled interior is adorable, with 70s‑style retro tables and chairs blended nicely with modern walls, flooring, and booth colors. All the staff were very friendly, and when we were unsure what to order, they asked about our preferences and recommended dishes that suited us perfectly. My husband chose the migas, and I had the smoked‑salmon scrambled eggs. Both were delicious and very satisfying. Other breakfast diners on the same street feel overpriced, but this place offers fair and reasonable pricing, which we really appreciated.

    It's still a fairly new place, but we just tried it for the first time! It's a breakfast/ lunch only restaurant. The menu has a lot of good selections, however, I was surprised to see they don't offer omelettes. A very friendly place where we were greeted to seated immediately. Larry took care of us, did a great job. Pricing was in line with this type of place, but a little high for what I feel breakfast should cost. I got the All-Star skillet, at the cost of $17. It was two eggs, chopped bacon, sausage with onions and green peppers. However, it was about 50% small cube pieces of potato. I felt like there was way too much potatoes, and not enough of everything else, especially for $17! However, the presentation and flavor was good. My wife got the biscuits with gravy, which she said was excellent. Mine came with two large pancakes, which were also very good... served with hot syrup! There are windows on two sides, making it well lit. Everything looked brand new and clean! Definitely a small diner atmosphere. We liked it, however, we did not feel that it was anything which set it apart from many other places like this in Grapevine. As I was disappointment with my skillet dinner, that will likely not encourage me to come back. However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try them!

    We had driven by this place a couple of times, but didn't hear much about it until a friend recently recommended it. We went in for breakfast today. Our server Jillian was excellent. We had the biscuits & gravy and the Laurel Canyon Benedict and both were very good. The coffee is superb! The new decor is a huge upgrade from the previous restaurant. The owners are actively involved in the day-to-day operations. They seem to have a really good thing going. Keep up the great work!!

    Imagine an old building, maybe an old Waffle House, that's been a few different restaurants over the years -- that's what it looks like when you pull up to Daytrip Diner. Not the most exciting first impression. But don't stop reading yet, because what's inside is actually really charming. I wasn't impressed with the outside, but the inside was everything I hope a diner would be: hardwood floors (except for the outline of the restaurant where there are charming tiles), modern booths that look like old-school booths, and tables and chairs that look like teak wood, another nod to mid-century furniture. The waitress was considerate, and engaging the whole time we were there. I never accept straws, and she got it, "Help save the turtles," she said. And I acknowledge her by relying, "This is exactly why I don't accept straws." We both understood each other. I am not much of a breakfast person, and the first time I come to a new restaurant I order scrambled eggs. This is my test. Daytrip Diner passed the test! The eggs were cooked perfect, and tasty. So many time scrambled eggs are over cooked and dry, but not here. This was a great experience and I look forward to coming back soon.

    Blueberry pancakes with lemon curd

    Amazing food and service! I had the Alamo skillet and upgraded($) to blueberry pancakes with lemon curd- sooo good.

    Nestled in Grapevine, Daytrip Diner is a nice option when trying to get away from the big hotel experiences nearby. The wait staff were very friendly and were honest with the recommendations. The food was fresh, hot, and really good. When in Grapevine, I definitely plan on going back!

    Daytrip latte & Biscoff latte... both delicious
    Lili D.

    All things were great ...service, food is delicious, ambience too. Small place but you don't feel rushed at all, it was worth a short wait. Friendly staff, who gave great suggestions. Must try the Biscoff latte!!

    OMG this place is amazing! The ambiance is that of a laid back diner. Our server was Kristen and she was awesome! The food was so good and coffee is the best I've ever had anywhere! We had the potatoes instead of the hash browns and they were super delicious and the bacon was extra good! I can't wait to come back for lunch. FYI this place gets crowded so come early!

    Plate sized pancakes!

The outdoor patio where they had a live band would have been a good place to sit, but that 100° heat is a little much for this Minnesota blood. Started off with a smoked old fashioned and that hit the spot. Dinner was a pulled pork sandwich with sweet potato fries. The sandwich was a bit on the disappointing side as the meat seemed a bit on the older side, and very little BBQ sauce. Our waiter was AMAZING, but he was soooooo busy with large groups I didn't trouble him for a side of BBQ. However, the bread pudding totally made up for the sandwich. That was a delicious way to end the experience. I'm sure we'll be back next time I'm at DFW.

It was a great way to kick off our lunch. It just hit lunch time, so the restaurant wasn't too busy and we decided to take a seat at the bar for our meal. The restuarant is beautiful, great decor, very bright yet great seating for small or large parties. It looked like there was private dining also available! As we perused the menu, we were greeted promptly by our bartender, who's name is slipping my mind, he was such a sweet guy! He gave us some excellent food and drink recommendations. The one drink I went with that he recommended was their 21-day pineapple infused vodka martini. Shaken beautifully and poured into an ice cold martini glass and dressed with a fresh pineapple wedge. It was nice, crisp, cold, and delightfully fresh! For the food, I was originally thinking a burger, bc it's a smokehouse, and that's what they specialize in, over the fire cooking, but his recommendation on the Hot Honey Chicken sandwich sounded too good to pass up, and in fact, had a missed it, I'd be missing out!!! The sandwich was huge, and after the camera eating first, I took my first big bite, and it was so flavorful. The chicken was hot, crunchy, sweet, with a little spice, crisp pickles, cheese melted as I took each bite. Just a great burst of flavors. The fries I liked very much, and now thinking back on it, should've ordered a side of the sauce they had on the sandwich to dip those fries in. My sister order the 1/2 ribs, which she says were really good, along with a side of au gratin potatoes, that looked like they came from someone's moms kitchen! She left nothing on that plate!!! This was a great first impression of the restuarant, and I look forward to trying them again, something that can be kissed by that flame!

Unfortunately, the steak arrived quite late, likely due to a communication issue in the kitchen. The rest of the dishes complemented each other well, and we especially loved the bread served for the table. The service was great, and the manager went above and beyond. He personally sat down with us to discuss what may have gone wrong and checked on us while we waited for the steak. We truly appreciated his professionalism and kindness, as well as his decision to remove the steak from our bill. The atmosphere was warm, cozy, and inviting. Despite the delay, the excellent hospitality and genuine care from the staff made for a positive dining experience. Thank you for taking such good care of us.

I had…read moreheard several people talking about Mi Dia From Scratch, so I decided it was finally time to see what all the buzz was about. I arrived during the lunch rush, and both the parking lot and the restaurant were packed. Even though they were extremely busy, we were immediately greeted by a courteous and polite young man who quickly escorted us to a booth. We were seated in Ms. Maria's section, and she was a wonderful server. She greeted us with a warm smile, brought us menus along with the lunch menu, chips and salsa, and promptly served our water. She gave us plenty of time to look over the menu and was friendly, attentive, and very courteous throughout our meal. The chips and salsa were very good. My only suggestion would be to offer a salsa without cilantro for those who prefer it. We ordered the Create Your Own Combo Plate, which included a chicken flauta, a crispy taco, rice, and refried beans topped with cheese for $15.50. The taco was perfectly crispy and well seasoned, while the chicken flauta was covered in a flavorful red chile sauce that had just the right amount of heat. The rice and refried beans were seasoned perfectly and complemented the meal well. We also ordered the chimichanga, smothered in cheese sauce and served with rice and refried beans, for $16.00. It was well seasoned, delicious, and satisfying. The flavors weren't overpowering--they were balanced and enjoyable, making it a dish I would gladly order again. This was my first visit to Mi Dia From Scratch, and I came away very impressed. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lively, and the restaurant also offers a nice outdoor seating area. Between the excellent service and flavorful food, I will definitely be back. I hope you'll give it a try too!

The portions are also huge Our server was wonderful from start to finish. He was friendly, attentive, and checked on us often without being overbearing. The service was honestly the best part of the experience. We started with the Sichuan calamari, and this was easily the highlight of the meal. It was perfectly crispy, the glaze had just the right amount of sweetness and heat, and the seasoning gave it a nice kick without overpowering the calamari. It was one of the best calamari dishes I've had and definitely raised my expectations for everything that followed. Next was the tenderloin bruschetta, and unfortunately this one just didn't work for me. The flavors didn't come together, and it was much saltier than it needed to be. It felt like there were too many things happening on the plate without much balance. I wouldn't order it again. For the entrées, the Chilean Sea Bass was very good. The fish was flaky and cooked well, the risotto was creamy, and the sauce brought everything together without being too heavy. It was one of the stronger dishes we ordered. The lobster stuffed ravioli was another solid choice. The filling was generous, there was plenty of lobster on top, and the vodka sauce complemented everything nicely without taking over. It was rich but still well balanced. We also tried the New Zealand rack of lamb. This one had mixed reviews at our table. It wasn't as tender as I was hoping, but I didn't dislike it and again I didn't love it! The blackened exterior and the wine reduction gave it good flavor, but it just wasn't particularly memorable. My favorite entrée ended up being the tomahawk pork chop. The pork itself was juicy, flavorful, and cooked really well. I wasn't a huge fan of the pineapple bourbon glaze since I didn't think it added much to the dish, but the quality of the meat made up for it. We also had the strawberry spinach salad, which was fresh and a nice lighter option alongside all the richer dishes. Then there was also a side dish with green beans and almond and again no complains there. Overall, I left feeling a little conflicted. The service was outstanding, the atmosphere was great, and the portions were very generous. The food itself was a mix of really good dishes and others that completely missed the mark. After such an incredible start with the calamari, I expected the rest of the meal to be on the same level, but it just never got there. I'm glad we tried it, but I don't think it's a place I'd rush back to.
