This is definitely a 5 Star place taking consideration that this is a greasy spoon diner. Surprisingly there's not many of these kinds of places in Gainesville especially within the center of Gainesville. Just a very solid breakfast place and I look forward to coming here for lunch.

Came here after work with a friend. It's a diner and I feel like it was a true diner experience. The waitress was sweet and attentive. There is also plenty of seating and it could definitely accommodate a large party. This is a typical breakfast for me, and they executed it well. Loved that you could swap your toast out for a pancake! Heard the bacon is good, so I'll definitely be back.

We were very lucky to find this place on a busy Sunday morning on a long game day weekend. Every where we tried had over an hour wait. This place hustles you through and has a delicious diner menu. Small location, old style diner, churning and burning. Offer a full breakfast and lunch menu. Everyone was very helpful, but they are so busy and newly opened that they kind of lose track of the people coming in so there were three tables available and we were waiting along with many other people to be seated. Eventually we got tired of waiting and just sat ourselves. I don't think they were prepared to be slammed with so many patrons. Food comes out quickly but we had to wave servers down for coffee refills and for our sides like toast and oatmeal that came long after the rest of our meal.

Definitely the best breakfast you can find in Gainesville. A hidden gem. The food is outstanding and the service is even better. 5 stars.

Walked in and everyone was very welcoming. Facility is clean and food was GREAT! Portions were good and not overwhelming. True diner tasting food with outstanding service.

Our normal breakfast spot was closed so we stopped in here and were pleasantly surprised. My gf had a omelette she said the eggs were light and super fluffy almost magical. My Reuben sandwich was excellent and the bread was a nicer thicker bread making it not get soggy. We both loved the coffee too. The service was friendly the seating and decor is simple dinner just tables and really good food. We are definitely going back a bunch.

My husband has raved about Darrell's for a while, and we finally ate there together yesterday. He had only ever had breakfast there, and lunch was decent, but nothing outstanding. My husband did order a side of sausage, and WOW, YUMMY! The service was quick, orders were correct, and everything was a good temperature. My husband got the combo with chili and a half tuna sandwich. The sandwich was fresh and delicious while the chili was meh. I got a Buffalo chicken wrap with potato salad. The Buffalo chicken wrap was decent, but the potato salad was really disappointing. The potato salad was bland, some of the potato was undercooked, and the chunks of potato were really big. We both ordered sweet tea and it was good. I wish I would have just ordered breakfast because that might have been a better experience. I would definitely return to try breakfast. Rating from F to A +++, I give it a B-.
