My wife and I stopped by for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and we both asked the same question: what took us so long to come here? The food was fantastic — very reasonably priced and left us full and satisfied. The staff are always friendly and the interior really captures the feeling of a 1950s-style diner, complete with classic booth seating, framed car photos, and retro touches.
When you come to Dave's you feel like you are going to a long-time local favorite. A lot of older folks were there, looking like they've been coming every Saturday morning for years. The food was really good and the helpings were generous. The chicken fried steak with eggs and hash browns was tasty and filling. My wife got the eggs Benedict and loved it.
Had a great time at dinner with friends. The fried pickle chips were definitely my favorite. Got a burger to go and it came out nice and hot when I was ready. Pretty affordable for two meals plus an appetizer.
