3.5 Pros: Good food, I had the chicken fried chicken and sourdough and it was all nice. Fast and friendly staff. Chill ambiance. Cons: Kinda rough parking, unnecessary tv, very burnt coffee, and oil/cheap margarine instead of butter read more

Good diner food with exceptionally pleasant staff. I love mom and pop diners and Dixie's is a good one! The ambience is definitely small town diner decor and that just adds to their comfort food appeal. One of these days I really need to try a cinamon roll - they look great. read more

I drive 30 minutes to come to Dixies. The best diner/breakfast in Pierce County. Sunday's are hectic but the service is still fantastic, came on a Saturday and it was even better. I have worked for a few James Beard restaurants and whoever makes their Hollandaise sauce? One of the best I have had and Hollandaise sauce is a craft, like surfing...you either do it great or you suck. I love this place and worth the drive. My favorites 1. Spinach Pie eggs Benedict (extra hollandaise) 2. Spinach Pie Hobo I always order a short stack of buttermilk pancakes for the table. read more

I had ordered breakfast to be picked up. I ordered hash browns but got large stripes of raw potatoes .The toast was hard as a rock and the food was really greasy.I have eaten here a lot.The only thing good was the fruit cup. read more

This place came highly recommended ... food was ... meh. Staff was aloof. Felt like a run down Dennys

Good food, good people and good music. Our second trip for breakfast and it was perfect. Try dad's potatoes, perfectly cooked with very little salt. If you like bacon order that too. I wanted the cinnamon roll but life has me avoiding that sort of goodness. I loved the breakfast! No pictures because you need to experience it yourself. read more

Dixie's Home Cookin' - Oh and they have apple butter. - Comfort Food Near Me - Sumner, Washington

I will come right out and say, I generally don't stop at diners unless I've heard something great about their food. Anecdotally my experience with them is that they under season their food and are generally uninspiring. Taking my mother to breakfast while in Sumner this was the place to go on a 100-degree morning so she didn't have to wait outside in the heat. I ordered a breakfast of eggs, bacon hash browns and toast. I also got a of sausage gravy to help make the potatoes edible if they turned out flavorless. They must have been short staffed because the order came in pieces. By the time the gravy and toast made it the food was moving from warm to cool. The food itself. The only thing that made anything interesting was the sausage gravy. It wasn't just a country gravy with sausage, it had a hint of thyme which added a great flavor. However, the thyme got stuck in my teeth because they were like little hard slivers of herb. It might have been the bottom of the spice jar or put in late so it didn't have a chance to soften. While I generally do not like to give two stars, I really couldn't find anything to raise it 3 stars and don't plan on going back! read more

Home cooking' but packaged jam? Whenever I see prepackaged jam at diners that claim it's home style cooking it usually not a good sign. Places that actually have homemade good food prepare yummy unforgettable jam. Freezer jam is always a favorite. read more

I ordered Eggs Benedict and the Blue Berry Crepes. The eggs Benedict was ok, I couldn't oder online and have the ham on the side so that was disappointing. However there was plenty of hollandaise sauce. The blue berry crepes has so much cream filling they should've been called cream crepes. There was a splash, like literally 1 ounce of blue berries on them. Idk who made these but they should go to food jail for the crimes they committed on these crepes. read more

First timer and ordered their new menu item of Beef Kebob. Good taste and flavor. Tried the zucchini fries, OMG Sooo good .

Ever since old Milwaukee in Tacoma closed down I've been I search of good biscuits and gravy. This is now my go to place in WA state for biscuits and gravy. read more

It's my first time in but my second time eating their food. So far, food is decent, good portions, good flavors. It sucked sitting facing the windows because the sun burned my damn retinas. The wait staff was nice but real snippy. We came in like 1.5 hours before closing so maybe that was a part of it, idk. read more

Dixie's Home Cookin' - There was a Hangover Bowl - Comfort Food Near Me - Sumner, Washington

The service was excellent. Seated as soon as we walked in. Our order was taken and served promptly. Answers to Questions about the menu were clear. The food was amazing. The sauce on the eggs Benedict was perfect and it came with potatoes and fresh fruit. In the future, I would ask that they cook the eggs a little more. The cheesecake pancakes were not too sweet. Good OJ. We will be back. read more

Dixie's Home Cookin' - Mel liked the pancakes - Comfort Food Near Me - Sumner, Washington

The eggs Benedict was scrumptious. Great egg, perfectly cooked, and the sauce was just the right amount and had terrific flavor. Would absolutely order it again. The potato cakes as a side were not great- but rubbery- didn't work for me-but, I am glad I tried em and now I know. Definitely going back for the eggs Benedict again-yes yes yes read more

The food is always hot and fresh. The service is always amazing. I eat here a lot and have no complaints. My favorite is the blackberry Italian soda with whip cream. They are so yummy.

Dixie's Home Cookin' - Dixie's Cinnamon Roll - Comfort Food Near Me - Sumner, Washington

Delicious local diner. My party of 6 was seated almost right away on a Sunday around lunch time and our server (forgot to ask his name) was really on it! Our food was excellent, hot and tasted home cooked. The biscuits were fresh and amazing! My 5 year old and 1 year old enjoyed the fresh fruit and oats. Restroom was also very clean and cute! I read the reviews before coming so I kept an open mind and I'm so glad we stopped in. There's lots of parking in the back near the back entrance. It is a little loud but I feel like it was no louder than any other place we have eaten. Friendly neighborhood dining and we enjoyed our meal here. Definitely recommend! read more

Just stood there waiting to be seated. Multiple workers walked past and didn't even acknowledge us. We left. I'm not going to be ignored and wait for shitty service and mediocre food at best. Fuc* this place read more

My husband grabbed some take out for breakfast. Yummy diner type food. We got two different burritos and shared them, while my daughter got a Mickey Mouse pancake. Overall, good. Would like to try eating there next time. read more

I ordered pick up for the Basic Pig breakfast. The meal overall was good, however I feel like their eggs, sausage and potatoes could've had more seasoning. It tasted a bit unseasoned. However, the biscuit was delicious! It tasted homemade and very fresh. I would definitely come back again as the food was good overall and staff were friendly. While I didn't dine in, the restaurant looked clean, had plenty of seating, and easy to get to with parking. read more

Found this place from a delivery service app from for which I had a gift card. I wanted a breakfast / brunch "something" so I ordered the corned beef and hash with a side of pancake. I've got to say it was really great. Maybe a little under seasoned but I was pleasantly surprised that they packaged it so it would arrive intact and delicious. Better yet I've think I've found a great little breakfast and lunch spot to try with the family. Looking forward to trying out Dixie's again and updating to 5 stars. read more

The food here is consistent. My favorite dish is the California Benny. I find that any Benny with bacon is superior to one with ham, but that's my personal preference and I love that they offer that here and I don't have to be that person asking for a substitution. The people here have always been nice. We've eaten in several times, this time we got to go. I love that there is more than one option for what kind of potatoes you want with your dish. It's your typical small town diner, busy and loud when it's packed. If eating in on a weekend, come early or with enough time to wait as the line can get pretty long. Best for smaller groups since there's a decent amount of seating but not very large group friendly. read more

Our second visit. The ambience is odd. It looks like it's not quite done. The food is not impressive. The cinnamon roll French toast was undercooked and had some sort of stale frosting squirted all over it. The Hashbrowns were soaked in grease that did not taste fresh. The scrambled eggs were from a carton I'm sure, and not fresh cracked. The butter is whipped margarine. Nothing tasted fresh or good. The prices are high for sub grade food. That brings me to the service. Our server was nice and efficient. However the hostess who refilled the coffee spilled all over the table and just left it, like it didn't happen. No apology. We had to use all our napkins to clean it up ourselves. But the orange juice was great! Served in a big frosty mug. Nonetheless, we probably won't return. read more

I've Doordash to this location in the past and always seems to be busy. Decided to get some breakfast and it did not disappointed. Got the chicken fried steak hangover bowl and a blueberry grape. So good! read more

Dixie's Home Cookin' - a cheeseburger in a styrofoam container - Comfort Food Near Me - Sumner, Washington

This lace is full of warnings to their customers. So many posted signs telling you what you can't do then a sign at every table giving a preemptive excuse for whatever goes wrong. Menu is also full of individual side costs and alcohol warnings. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospitality read more

Trying out places in the area and came across here. TINY place but great home cooking as the name indicates. VERY friendly staff - "Sam" took great care of us - drink refilled and coffee piping hot. Worth the visit and definitely try out their zucchini fries !! Yum ! .... w/ their ranch. So glad to know that there is small Home style places still around that provide tasty food brought to your table w/ a smile, and very fair prices. read more

Last Sunday me and my husband decided to give dixies a try after driving past a few times. We get there and park, kinda excited to try a new breakfast spot. Well we park and walk in, get greeted by a young lady that says we are kinda busy go to the booth and we'll seat you. Ok, no problem at all. So we walk up and wait for the hostess because she is assisting another customer. We notice an empty booth with no one in it. But we just do as we are told and wait. Well as we are waiting for her, we see a white couple come in after us and get seated while we were clearly there first. Never have I ever experienced this type of shitty service because the color of our skin color. Kinda ticked off, my husband asks the guy hostess/waitress what's up with that and he shrugs his shoulders. The girl that we were waiting for at the front of the restaurant just blatantly acts like she didn't see anything. In disgust we walk out, I was sooooo shocked that it happened.!!!! Needless to say, I hope if you ever give this place a try, that they never make you feel like how we felt that Sunday for us. It's 2021 and to still experience racism and inequality from a restaurant is just sad! Thank god for these types of platforms that let you write freely so people can actually see the kind of things that happen. read more

Really great breakfast, very nice staff and very quick! We will be back again.............

Had a breakfast here mid week. It was still packed. I judge restaurants based on locals and cleanliness. Dixie's was friendly and offers a great menu. Be patient it is worth the wait. The brisket was delicious and large portions. read more

Must try the cinnamon rolls! They can definitely feed two especially if you are having it as dessert! I did a pickup order for some and they were ready as soon as I drove down there! Super quick and friendly service!! read more

Food and staff are wonderful and it really is the only place you can go for a good early breakfast in the area that isn't a fast food chain. This place is LOUD though - chatter echoes the walls. Every noise people or objects make get amplified that it becomes DEAFENING. For this reason I'm taking off 2 stars. If only the restaurant can install some kind of soundproofing like thick foam boards (which are reasonably priced on Amazon Fstop Labs Acoustic Foam Panels, 12 Pack Black 2'' X 12" X 12" Mushroom Studio Wedge Tiles, Sound Panels Sound Proof Foam Panels Sound Proofing Padding For Wall https://a.co/d/1v5cCzF ) read more
