We are a family with two very young boys, so to get our dining out fix while also exposing them to eating at a non fast-food restaurant, we try a new restaurant every Tuesday for an early dinner. Maple Leaf was an awesome spot for this week’s outing. There weren’t many other diners, allowing us to use one of their enormous booths for our family of four. Service was awesome, friendly, helpful, and prompt. I had their chicken and waffles, which was too much food, but so yummy. The waffle far outshined the chicken. My husband had the buffalo chicken sandwich, which I tried, and it too was delicious. Our boys split the fried fish and shrimp combo and ate more than they usually do, a testament to the meal. We hope to get back here soon!

Not bad but nothing to write home about. It's a pretty typical diner with some eclectic choices like poutine or cabbage rolls. It can get pretty crowded so definitely doesn't feel relaxed during peak times.

It was my birthday make-up dinner. I chose a bad restaurant for my actual birthday, my wife picked this one to make it up, and once again, my wife was a way better restaurant picker than I was. This place was AMAZING! Not for the health conscious, but a solid pick for an awesome cheat meal.

OMG! We had the Salisbury steak and Almond Joy pie The steak was great, one little piece of grisle but other then that cooked perfect! Almond Joy pre was super tasty! Very tiny crust and lots of coconut! Very eclectic crowd. Or server, Anthony, was very good! He was always checking to make sure we were happy. That's actually so Canadian! They're such great sweet people! I would definitely recommend this and we'll be back!

Our group of 10 women spent a pleasant evening relaxing, talking and enjoying our meal. A change of pace for our dinner group, but everyone was happy with our choice. I had the cabbage rolls and enjoyed them immensely. The comments on diners choices were positive. Everyone enjoyed their food. Spirit choices are limited, but one can have wine, or a cocktail but their is not really a full bar. Our waiter was accommodating and helpful with our choices. All in all a good evening.

Grease grease and more grease on the special of shrimp and fish. To much breading, server actually dropped a plate as he was putting down our entree. Splashing me with some type of sauce. He never looked up...didn’t care. I reserved through open table and they did not register my points. It’s ok fool me once but not again. All hype...I won’t be back.

We had a great time at Maple Leaf Diner. The food is fun and creative, as long as you’re not expecting a heart-healthy meal. I’m certain you could accomplish that if you so choose, but what would be the point?! We enjoyed everything we tried, from poutine to fried pickles, to the veggie burger, adult milk shakes, and apple pie. We will definitely be back!

The food was great; although when I ordered potato skins it was literally just that - the potato peelings deep fried - they were yummy. The poutine could have had many more cheese curds. The fish was scrumptious all covered in salt n vinegar chips. Can hardly wait to go back and have cabbage rolls. I’m a Canadian from Vancouver, so this makes me feel special.

I would not order the Denver Omelet again, but my son's cheeseburger and poutine earned high praise. The omelet was thinner than a crepe, and had way too many peppers without enough cheese to hold it all together. Some pieces of the ham were inedible due to the gristle. I booked a reservation, but they weren't busy during my visit, so it really wasn't necessary. There were many other items on the menu that sounded delicious. I am doing a low carb diet, but I think the pumpkin pancakes would have been amazing.

Met for dinner with friends. Food has always been great for breakfast, brunch and lunch. Was disappointed in lack of basic cocktail ingredients like tonic water. Very limited bar choices and some confusion on who mixed drinks. Service was slow in delivery of all four meals. Some had to wait for their dinner. Restaurant was not busy so disappointed in level of service during dinner. Will return for earlier meals during business hours.

Food is excellent at good prices for serving size. Have tried a few dishes and not had a bad one yet. Very casual but not the most comfortable chairs to linger in.

Had to visit and try the poutine after seeing on Good Morning Texas. Happy to see they had comfort food- stuffed cabbage just like Mom makes! Only complaint was that they ran out of soup and the potato latkes were not cooked enough. The manager checked on us several times and apologized. Can't wait to come back and try the breakfast menu!

No kidding, this is a diner. Not sure if they were short-handed, or just overwhelmed & disorganized. It took quite a bit of time to get waited on & just forget ordering a cocktail. They are terrible. BUT, when you get your salad, as fresh as can be & quite tasty, you forget about the chaos & noise & appreciate the fresh & delicious home cooking. Frankly, better than your grandmother's. Fish and chips were crisp & not at all fishy. The Cabbage rolls are outstanding - the best I've ever had. Green beans and carrots were fresh & just fine. Toasted Coconut Pie seemed more whipped topping and less about coconut flavor, but it was certainly a flaky crust & 4" high. The restaurant was full of families and seniors who appreciate such good food for such a reasonable price.

Went on a trip from our home in New Orleans to Dallas with some friends and had heard some good comments about Maple Leaf Diner, so we tried it and all of us agreed that not only did the food have a great flavor with that "home-cooked" taste, but our meals were inexpensive as well. Great food and a great time!

It was my turn to pick a place for our monthly "date night". My wife and I went to Canada last year and when I saw this I thought it would be an interesting choice. Don't know if there is any place like it in the Dallas area. We were seated quickly and had excellent service. Our waitress (Melissa?) was fabulous, explaining the dishes and making sure we always had everything we needed. We tried the Poutine, which was very good. My wife had the fish and chips and I had the grilled salmon with a cranberry glaze. It was amazing. The owner came by to make sure all was well. We will certainly be back.

I married a Canadian, so in honor of our Canadian wedding (we had 2 weddings, 1 US & 1 CDN), we went to celebrate the Canadian wedding's celebration at this diner. It was excellent, & we'll be back👍🏾
