When ever its breakfast time & I'm in Calgary this is usual where my hunger takes me. There's usually a line up, but with good reason & it usually moves fast & the coffee flows wail you wait. Think we have had everything on the menu at some point & the custard oatmeal & chocolate banana French toast stick out... More

I used to live only blocks away from the Dinner Deluxe and everything I had on the menu was fantastic. The decor is retro 50/60s, the servers are wonderful. The place is always packed but service is still good. This is just a casual, welcoming, warm place to go for a great unpretensious meal.

I have been here before awhile ago, when there wasn't all the non-retro tables crammed into the already tiny diner!! Is cramped and claustrophobic now. Upon arriving we were told to sit at a table fairly quickly, then we were asked to move (both tables were so close to another table you didn't even have elbow room). I asked if... More

My friend took me to Diner Deluxe yesterday, it was in the neighborhood she had just moved to, so I was game to try something new. She warned me, the place was always packed, and we might have to wait. I didn't think at 1pm it would still be packed, but we got there, and they were taking names for... More

We arrived and there was a line up so we waited and put our name on the list. The list master came by about 20 minutes later and told us we were 5th on the list and then he sat a few tables. He then came back and told us we were first and would be seated next, except he... More

I always enjoy coming here. I've even brought clients and done business, although it is fairly casual. The food is generous and delicious. The smell of the bakery next door is tantalizing!

Somewhat of a granola place but the food is still good. I like the lamb shank, very tender and tasty. they also have fried oatmeal that is very good.

I've been to Diner Deluxe a number of times and every time it seemed a little more disappointing, culminating with this last time in October. Instead of going at peak time -brunch, a group of friends and I decided to meet later in the day. Most of the group had already eaten so they stuck to warm drinks, but two... More

Authentic period furnishings (formica tables edged with aluminum!) form a great setting for hearty, sumptuous breakfasts.
