Diana's Diner — Restaurant in Albert Lea

Wow! My wife and I took our 2 kids for breakfast. My wife and I had omelets and they were the best I have ever had. No joke try them! They were stuffed full and the cheese was superb! Highly recommend! My daughter ordered the cake. Let me first say I only eat my wife's pancakes, I am really picky when it comes to cakes. Well, I think I found a cake the rivals my wife's / beats hers (hopefully she doesn't see this review haha). It was cooked to absolute perfection. It was light and airy, not burned or cooked to long . I don't like dark golden cakes. Best of all it tasted exceptionally well! Did I mention Diana was our waitress, cook, and hostess? She did it all while cooking excellent food. I went to pay and she remember my entire order without a ticket... I just cant say enough about my experience. I have shared with numerous people since eating there Saturday morning. Great Job Diana, sincerely a new loyal customer! I cant...

Came here a while ago and had a VERY rude interaction after I constructively offered my opinion on the lack of quantity of food on my take-out the same day I ordered. Was one of the first customers here, and with COVID surging again, decided not to risk it, got home, and I feel like they forgot half my order.

Omelette was all egg, no filling or goodies. Toast was WET with butter. Side of Bacon (2 pieces) was dripping with grease. I asked for hash browns, but those were nowhere to be found even though I was charged for them.

Locals rage about this place...but I think if you're not a routine customer here, you're unlikely to get the meal you've paid for. One and done for me,...

Best thing about this friendly, clean, cute little american styled cafe diner are it's hours. They open super early and close late -- so if you're nearby on Hwy I35N or I35S, yes please go and visit and get a bite. You'll probably find Diana behind the counter, tall with a quick smile and easy laughter. Their food seems all home made style made fresh, tasty with great ingredients -- right there across the counter as you sip on your coffee....
