Diners Drive-Ins and Dives
Let’s be real here, when I order corned beef hash at other places, I’m
comparing it to the one at Tre Kronor. It’s the perfect combination of tender
meaty goodness, crisp potatoes and fluffy eggs. A masterpiece.
The Dwayne Purvis Burger! Burger, fully loaded with creamy peanut butter.
Awesome!
Family-run (and cash-only) restaurant at the eastern edge of Little Italy near
the United Center.
For all of you who think this is a 5 star over priced restaurant that will
cater to your every need, what is it that you think this place is? It’s a bar,
a dive bar at that. Their purpose is not to make you feel like royalty when you
walk through the doors, their job is to make you feel like a welcome regular
human being who wants to sit down and enjoy a couple of drinks, good food, and
casual conversation.
This place is absolutely the go-to favorite when you need a little sumpin’
sumpin’. Dave’s Not Here anymore, and I miss it too, but the tune up hits the
spot. I drive straight here whenever I come to town.
RICHARDSON AND ROANOKE HOURS: 7 days a week for lunch and dinner from 11am to
9pm-ish
I don’t even know how to talk about Uncle Lou’s. If you’re expecting a
delicious blend of fried foods and a wonderfully local atmosphere, look no
further than Uncle Lou’s. There’s really nothing fancy about this place. You
walk in, see some tables, lots of people and a giant menu with quick snapshots
of each item for easy pickin’.
A group of friends and I took a drive out here to see what the fuss was about.
I have to admit, even after a 1.5 hour wait it was sooo worth it. I chose the
ribs, baked Mac n cheese and let me tell ya the Mac n cheese was unreal.
The arepas here are incredible! I had asked one of my clients if he could point
me out to a good place for lunch and he referred me here. The previous location
of the same business, which happens to be only a block or two away, was on Food
Network’s TV show “Diners, Drive Ins and Dives,” which is usually a pretty
promising sign of a good restaurant.
Great food in the Fan district of Richmond, friendly atamosphere, great for VCU
students.
We were pleasantly surprised by the interior, and particularly liked the
paintings from a local artist that were everywhere.
The food is good, old, southern, American style. Staff is quite pleasant.
Open, airy, lots of windows, white decor makes it bright.
Hobo Breakfast, mixed hashed potatoes, meat, eggs and cheese. Very big and very
tasty.
After Daniel K. recommended this spot I had to try it. Any place that has 50
beers on tap is off to a good start, and Waddell’s did not disappoint. Many
great regional brews and a few craft beers, but I had to start with my favorite
brewery, Stone, having an IPA.
Decided to go back to Wallace Station for lunch today. Wow they do not
disappoint. I went for something different this time. The Bourbon Trail
Triple Crown. Turkey, bacon, cheddar and etc. on toasted wheat. It was so
huge that I had to cut it into smaller pieces just to eat and only ate half at
that. Served with a pickle and chips at $8.50 it was a bargain. I took the
other half home and I’ll have it for super.
It may look like a struggling outlet mall, but good things lie within. I
stopped by here with some friends on the way from Chicago to Detroit. It’s a
good pitstop on the road trip.
Diners, Drive In’s and Dives visited this place and featured it on an episode.
Great food. Great staff. I can see why triple d visited this place.
Really great find! We were in the Deerfield Beach area for business and looked
on all the various sites to find a great local dive, and, well, this is it!
Even though they are in the middle of all the beach traffic, when inside it
still seems like a quaint little dive. We love dives! The employees are
friendly, the food was great, and the atmosphere was fantastic.
After day 2 of having muddy fun at Lollapalooza we were starving, every place
in downtown was packed with people getting their grub on. We decided to find a
place that was not so much in downtown. Yelp to the rescue, we found this diner
right away, sure it was after 11:00pm and was a couple of blocks away, plus
going over a bridge but with the stellar reviews, photos and not to mention
everyone’s favorite TV chief and host Guy Fieri visited this place and even had
them on his show it must…
When you walk in, be ready to wait in line. In this case it’s a good thing
since looking at the menu can be somewhat overwhelming. They really do have a
lot to choose from, not only that you can smell that BBQ-!
