Pork Belly & Grits
Alan F.

This ranks is one of my greatest breakfast experiences..EVER!!! The service was warm and informative..being our very first time here! We loved the local feel..seeing the collegiate sport team highlighted.. Now for the food...I am ABSOLUTELY STEALING this menu item!! Pork Belly & Grits. I choose poached eggs (Our server even asked how "poached" I wanted the egg) love that touch When I ask our Server about their corned beef and hash. She replied "everything here is homemade". She saw the look of disappointment in my face as I really love homemade corn, beef hash. She then suggested why don't you go with this menu item where you could actually get two breakfast entrées split down into one cohesive plate. What a brilliant idea! Definitely great for foodies who wanna try more than one thing but don't want to spend that much money and get that much food. This has been absolutely hands-down, the highlight of our road trip and truly plan on returning back here again!

We came to this diner at the glowing recommendations of a local friend, and we can definitely see why! The wait was 45 minutes but WORTH IT. Three words. Fried. Pumpkin. Roll. We tore that apart in about 10 seconds, but that wasn't the only star of the show! The crab cake Benedict was great! I'm from Maryland, so I know my crab cakes. This one gets a gold star. The banana bread was high recommended by our gracious server, and we even got a lil chocolate dipped bacon on the side because I was curious to try it. It's unusual but it works. Our server was awesome! When we told him it was our first time there, he sat at the booth with us to give us the lowdown of the menu. I don't think I've ever seen someone so passionate about the restaurant's food. I love that! Super amazing experience in every direction. Must visit if you're in Wichita!

A little attitude is good for the soul, they say.

I always visit the Doo-Dah Diner for breakfast whenever I am in Wichita. It has that diner vibe combined with an impressive display of pride in the city of Wichita. It is easy to miss the uphill entrance from the frontage road into the parking lot, so keep your eyes open. The parking lot is relatively small and may be full during busy hours but there is plenty of street parking nearby. The entrance is attractive and is your first glimpse of that pride I mentioned. Once inside, the hostess greeted us with a welcoming smile. We were seated immediately but when it gets busy, there is plenty of comfortable seating for your wait. While there are burgers and lunch food, I always order breakfast. My favorite item is the Banana Bread French Toast. There are plenty of options for those who require gluten-free or dairy-free. The décor is...whimsical, as it should be in "Doo*Dah" diner, and demonstrative of the pride in Wichita. It is worth a walk around to take it all in: sports, music, WSU, accomplishments...anything that Wichita has done well. Even the restrooms support the themes. The staff is as they should be in a diner representing their city. I love this place.

Every year and a half when I visit Wichita this is usually one of the first places I have to go to! I love Doo-Dah! If the price of the shirts did not start at $30 I would of purchased one already! This time I got the Brutus with chicken gravy and it was delicious. It comes with extra crispy hashbrowns topped with chicken fried chicken smothered in gravy and topped with scrambled eggs. Our table also got the Triple D andTimi's Benny and everyone loved it. Our waitress was Laura who is an veteran of the diner- been there over 14 years I believe. She was super helpful and obviously knowledge. The size is fairly large so it is good for small groups. Highly recommend on your visit to Wichita!

First things first! Make sure to get on the waitlist at least 30 mins to an hour before you plan to arrive, because Doo-Dah Diner is ALWAYS packed. I had the Brutus and I'd give it an 8/10. My friend had the crispy corned beef hash with a pancake and she enjoyed her food. Overall I'd give an 8/10 rating and I'd recommend Doo-Dah Diner.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll

Always good food, service, and atmosphere. Cute diner worth the wait. Highly suggest.

Great eggs Benedict. Giant breakfast burrito satisfying as well. Super service. Coffee could be better though.

The monkey bread was delicious! I got the Brutus. Chicken fried chicken over hashbrowns with onions smothered in gravy. It was really good. Huge portions. I really liked the colorful table cloths. It gave the restaurant extra pop. The staff was friendly.

Still a great place for breakfast after the ownership change. My wife especially enjoyed the ham

So you can see the inside!

We ate at Doo Dah Diner this morning, it was delicious! We enjoyed their complimentary monkey bread! It was gooey and delicious. I forgot to take a picture until it was only left a couple pieces. For breakfast my husband had Timi Benedict, he thought the hollandaise sauce was a tad more lemony than he usually has but was very delicious that way with the bacon. I had the breakfast burrito grumpy style! The mixture of the green chile enchiladas sauce and sausage gravy was more delicious than I could have imagined and so filling!

Booth w/ Old Bay Hot sauce.  Love this place

Service was fantastic. Food was solid and didn't leave hungry. Am I ace was cool and separated so it was little more quiet.

This was a great place to enjoy a great breakfast. Service was great, food was served fairly fast, hot and tasty. The server brought us some complimentary " monkee bread" was a nice touch. The inside was very clean and well organized.

I had been wanting to try this place for years. Stopped in for breakfast on Sunday. The place was packed and for good reason. I had the Triple D which is a choice of three of their favorites. I got The Benny, corned beef hash and biscuits in gravy. I judge the place by their gravy. If the gravy is good, it's a legit place. The biscuits and gravy were to die for. Biscuit was unique, spongy and soaked up the gravy-. The corned beef hash was also very good. The Benny was solid but normally not my thing anyway. The banana bread French toast was sooo good. And the complimentary monkey bread took me back to my childhood. Service is pleasant and efficient. Great place.

Ask the Community - Doo-Dah Diner

Do you have gluten free options?

We have become known in the celiac circles for our GF Banana Bread French Toast!

Is there a place nearby to park our 40 foot trailer and we could walk to the restaurant?

Yes, the restaurant is adjacent to a large parking lot.

Does anyone know if they put onions in their breakfast gravy? I'm allergic and it's my favorite thing to order at a breakfast place but some of the places in town have onions in their gravy

Abi, we do not put onions in our sausage gravy or our chicken gravy which is served on our chicken fried steak or chicken breakfast meal.
