    Blueberry Crepes
    Nereida G.

    The Arlington location was incredibly welcoming from the moment I walked in. The service was attentive without ever feeling rushed, and the food was absolutely amazing. The refried beans were perfectly prepared--on point and definitely *not* runny. The bacon was crispy and not oily, just the way I like it. The crepes were delicious, the pancakes were fluffy and full of flavor, and the chilaquiles were truly tasty. I come from out of town, and I would 100% make a special trip just to eat here again. Highly recommend!

    Pretty good food, not bad on the prices, the variety is vast, and customer service is great. Definitely worth the visit.

    First time at Good Day Cafe. Saturday morning and the restaurant was pretty full. It is a please seat yourself restaurant. The cashier smiled and pointed to a smaller table (helpful!). It is a smaller place, but manages to have quite a few tables. The cashier helped again bringing me a menu and by letting the server know I had been sitting a bit with no service. I ordered the 2 eggs and bacon, hash browns (crispy), toast and a pancake (taking the suggestion from a fellow yelper). The eggs (medium) and the hash browns were cooked perfectly. The thick cut bacon could have been cooked a little more. The pancake was delicious! The food raised from 3 stars to 4. I was able to get more coffee from another server. What impressed me the most were the two bussers. They had tables cleaned and re-set immediately. They even watched tables to clean off finished plates as needed. I heard the individuals next to me rave about the waffles...gonna have to try them next time.

    Impressive menu selections, timely service, tasty food. This place looks small & simple from outside, but they have so many American-style breakfast AND non-breakfast item selection in the menu! The chopped steak was flavorful & juicy. The breakfast tostada was tasty but the tostada could be crispier. The potatoes are tasty, but not too salty. The portions are generous. They are on a bit of pricier side. The only thing that was disappointing was the flat soda, no fizz whatsoever, so my friend returned hers. This is NOT a fancy place, but definitely a great place for a group of people with different tastes for food.

    Corned Beef Hash Breakfast with 2 Eggs
    Kenetha B.

    We were very pleased with our visit here. It's located in the end cap of a strip mall but visible from the road. Our server was new but she provided such excellent service that we had to tell her manager. Our visit was on a Sunday afternoon. There was a 20 minute wait and we received a call once our table was ready. The place was packed but they turned tables over pretty quickly. We ordered corn beef hash with eggs and hash browns and French toast combo with berries plus eggs and turkey bacon. Our food was delicious and matched the service. We love visiting local spots with a mom and pop vibe and was happy to learn that while a chain, it's family owned. Prices were reasonable and we plan to go back to try some of the lunch items.

    Excellent breakfast! Fast service nice atmosphere we loved it. I have been coming here for years and food quality is always the same. I love this place

    This is a no frills diner with fast service. The food has large portions and is of a decent quality, similar to a Waffle House. The bathroom was a bit rough with dirty paper on the floor and no paper towels available. It is located not far from I 20 so it's centrally located. It was just ok for me

    Got the Chicken fried steak with  2 eggs!

I decided to enjoy the Korean bibimbap and what a treat! It comes as a bowl with rice, shaved beef and a handful of various veggies. It has a slight kick of heat that blends well with the salty veggies. I was able to get most of this dish down as it's so flavorful. I wanted to try dessert but was too stuffed from my entree. Maybe next time. There's always plenty of seating and parking here. If you're into sports the bar area is also well equipped with TVs and more. Lastly I wanna mention our wonderful waitress Sarah. She is always so kind and gives great recommendations on menu items. Can't wait to return!!!

Every time I go to Lazy Dog I order Hush Puppies for appetizers. It includes 4 puppies and dipping sauce, which has a perfect type of bite. I ordered a burger with a brioche, always a good choice, fries. The brioche had Lace Dog's special sauce, lettuce, tomatoes and Gouda cheese. Lazy Dog is always low lightened, which makes it hard to see your food or companion across. It does have a date night vibe writing all over it. In my opinion, too dark. I could barely see my food.

    I had to really think if I should review this restaurant or not. It had a hard start and got worse…read moredue to a snobbish bartender named Colby. I don't live in Arlington and just recently moved from Dallas to Ft Worth. While looking at properties in Arlington for the day, this looked like a great stop. The reviews were mostly strong and the pictures I could see reminded me of my favorite Dallas steak fix, Bob's Chophouse on Lemmon. It doesn't have that vintage, chic atmosphere sadly, but it is old TX, steakhouse, 80's style. Colby asked if we wanted a menu and I said yes. He brought one for us both. I asked if they had any happy hour specials which is mentioned often in their reviews. He haughtily informed me that, "They don't do happy hour" and then giggled. Yes, giggled, the only other description is snickered. We ordered a Tito's Dirty Martini and Guinness and decided to stay anyway. He served my martini slushee and a good pour on the Guinness. He simply never came back. Everyone else had nuts and their orders taken. He avoided us as if we had the Bubonic plague. After his pointed non-service, I dropped my credit card, he snatched it and dropped the check. Obviously, I won't be back but I think that was the entire point of his service.

    We were in the Mansfield area to get our monthly haircuts and just finished up with our barber…read morearound lunchtime. So, it was time to figure out what we wanted for lunch. We tossed around a few suggestions and decided to stop at Cotton Patch Cafe since it was on the way home and wasn't out of the way. The restaurant, being a Saturday afternoon, wasn't busy at all. We were greeted with smiles and shown to our table. Rachael, our server greeted us and took our drink orders, unsweetened iced tea all the way around. One of the issues I have with Cotton Patch Cafe's menu is there are SO many awesome choices. It's hard to make a decision. Rachael checked back in with us and we had a chance to visit with her. We learned she had recently moved to Mansfield from New Mexica. We chatted about our last trip to New Mexico and all the fun we had while visiting the state. Finally, we made our choices. My wife ordered the small chicken tenders' basket with fries. I decided on the small chicken fried steak accompanied with garlic mashed potatoes, and Cotton Patch's incredible baked squash. It was a leisurely time catching up of how both of our previous week had gone. We're so busy during the week, we're sometime like passing ships in the night. Rachael arrived at our table with our piping hot entrees. My wife's chicken strips were so hot, she broke them into so they could cool down. My wife said they were awesome, and her fries were fried to perfection. My chicken fried steak was one of the crispest I've ever enjoyed. It was fried perfection just like my wife's fries. What can I say about the squash casserole, it was delightful as well as the garlic mashed potatoes with the jalapeno cream gravy. The manager even dropped by to see if all was OK. We said it was! What a delightful visit we enjoyed at Cotton Patch, all was wonderful, and Rachael was one of the best servers EVER! Thank you, Cotton Patch for a wonderful time.
