The Dream Cafe has been a Dallas institution since Mary and Grady O'Brien opened the first location in Uptown in 1988. Christine Lott launched the Dream Café concept in Lakewood in 2016 and continues …
I love all the dishes at Dream Cafe, but the squash dish is my favorite. I love the spices, the texture and flavors, this dish packs. The rice, vegetables, along with a touch of sweetness from the raisins with the crunch of the pecans make this delicious on a cold winter day.

The cloud cakes must've been a storm cloud They obviously were on the grill too long. I have loved these cloud cakes since I tasted them. The product experience in the cafe much different from the product delivered. The portion was lovely but the taste was not. I wouldn't order this again for delivery. It was a mistake.

Another delivery disappointment. I order the Strap Hanger, just eggs, sausage, cheese grits, and a popover. The eggs were just okay and the grits meh, But the cook must have thought that veggie sausage needed extra time on the grill. It was so overcooked it was inedible. Maybe I shouldn't have expected the popover to be fresh in the afternoon, but it was cold and almost all crust. Dream Cafe is supposed to be great but this is enough for me.

The Country is amazing! It taste great and is filling. I would normally give this 5 starts but the portion I received is no where near what they normally provide. Small chicken and little to no hashbrowns this time.

The Ode to Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffle's and Monte Cristo were both great! The sweet and savory of both were perfectly balanced.
