'Prairie Dog' Drive In Restaurant — Restaurant in Grand Prairie

I’ve considered stopping here for many years, I just never have. Usually I hear a recommendation about mom and pop types of diners, but never heard anything about this joint. I showed up just before 2 pm, it wasn’t busy. The place looks clean.

I ordered two eggs over easy, “home potatoes” (after asking what they were), bacon and biscuits-n-gravy.

After 30 minutes the meal finally came out. Maybe they had to cook the biscuits? This is a quick simple meal.

My eggs were overcooked. Not even kind of over easy. It’s what I would expect if I asked for a fried egg on a burger.

Bacon was pretty good. It could have been cooked a little longer, but it was nice and thin, so it wasn’t chewy.

The “home potatoes” are like eating a baked potato that has been sliced and seasoned. The taste was ok, but don’t expect home fries or your standard grilled breakfast potatoes. They are sliced VERY thick. Not bad, just not what I was expecting.

B&G was a total fail. There were two very small, very dense, flour covered biscuits. No flavor and no fluff. The gravy is almost certainly from a package. It’s thin. It looks like pepper gravy, but there’s no pepper taste. No salt, either. It’s not often I leave a biscuit and gravy on my plate, but I did today. I didn’t even butter and jelly the second biscuit. And I’m a hefty, biscuit loving kinda guy.

The good news is that it’s not expensive at all. Less than $9 for this plate and an enormous cup of coke. Because they were out of Dr Pepper. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Service was pretty good (the wait was due to the kitchen). Atmosphere would rate higher if there weren’t signs everywhere saying “we have the right to refuse service to anyone”. It’s factual, but it’s very off putting.

I see better reviews for lunch food, I may try them again for lunch. After some...

Hasn't been back in a while after a terrible experience the last time. Decided to give it a go again! Food was great, but the service sucked! Waitress had an attitude. Impatiently took our orders. Dropped our food off at the table and was never to be seen again! Made me feel like an inconvenience rather than a customer. To top off the perfect dining experience, two women came in with two children old enough to know better. They sat in the corner and proceeded to argue the entire time they were there. Don't know who they were, but I know Elijah shouldn't talk that way to his mother. To be fair, she was just as bad as he was so I don't blame the kid for his behavior!! It's also not the restaurants fault, but it certainly was annoying! Wish they could get better servers. We really do enjoy the food. Maybe we'll try the drive through instead of dine in next time!!!! Good...

You would not think. However this is a don't judge the book by its cover. OMG, was not expecting what I received hot good home cooked to order meal. Really it was hot. Other than a pizza from MOD coming straight out of the oven. My meal was from the grill to table very good flavor. I was doing work in the truck so I had it togo. Very good I'm in town for the night coming back for breakfast...... I'm sure everyone around here knows how good it is... Keep up the...
