    I finally had a chance to try Old Dixie Cafe today. Great food. Great prices. Great service. The cheeseburger triple decker was awesome. I’m pretty sure this cute little cafe will become a regular stop.

    Big breakfast at a good price! Couldn’t ask for more. Eclectic mix of young and old make Old Dixie Cafe North a great place for a Sunday breakfast with the family.

    If you love the Mom and Pop places this is a great pick!! Staff was so pleasant seated us right away. Large menu and selection of foods. Breakfast Lunch and Dinners. The portions were huge. The food was delicious 😋 super fresh and definitely made with Love. We had the mushroom and meat lovers omelette Amazing place to meet up for coffee or grab a bite with friends family and the kids. Highly recommend! All was super clean. Parking lot is a little tight be sure to pay attention to the one way in and one way you do need to go around the side back to leave the parking lot lol. Looks like you can't but you can it's like a secret path haha 😂. Overall perfect experience meeting with my friend.

    Great tasting breakfast and lunch fare. Or favs include city fried steak with gravy and their chipped beef. They have daily specials as well; the turkey reuben is amazing! "New" owners take pride in the place.

    Great casual spot to get dinner. I got comfort food on Meatloaf Monday. My husband loves the Lasagna. My daughter really likes the wraps!! Waitresses are friendly, good prices and you can even grab a beer or glass of wine if you like!

    I just had a gourmet meal at…..yes, wait for it….Old Dixie Cafe North! After the new management took over, this iconic local hangout changed. The decor is more subtle, TV screens of different channels have replaced the eclectic collections of posters. The honky tonk music is there. The wait staff that looks like real southern cafe wait staff is there. No sexy outfits or excess makeup and nonsense. Just hard working wait staff concerned about your food service. No kids that know nothing but adults that do this for a living. The booths and tables may be a bit freshened up but mostly the same basic furnishings. They serve beer and wine now. No wine list just types and the beer is a good selection, not a dozen or more. I’ve only eaten lunch here until tonight. I have to say that it has become a staple choice when I need a generously packed tuna wrap of fresh ingredients and some crispy French fries. No dinner menu try out until tonight. I’m an accomplished chef. If I order something special, it better be right. I boldly ordered the Veal Piccata. Go big or go home. I choose the salad and bread instead of the soup. Fried calamari was the choice of appetizer. A garlic ‘sauce’ was brought with what appeared to be a fresh, soft non commercial bread roll. Wow. It was more of a garlic oil pesto that screamed garlic and if the garlic had been roasted, would have avoided the ‘bite’ of raw garlic. That would have made it palatable to a larger audience but I love raw garlic so it was perfect. The salad was fresh and simple in an angled bowl perfect for salads. The silverware and plating is basic. Cafe style. Trust me the food doesn’t need upgraded dinnerware. The homemade balsamic dressing was just what it needed to be. Not tart, not sweet, just right. I indelicately tipped the bowl up to my mouth to finish the dregs it was so perfect. The sauce for the delicately cooked calamari was also perfect. Little slices of garlic in a meaty red sauce without too much or too little. When my main dish arrived, there was no fuss or pretense, just a generous serving. I have sent back veal at expensive restaurants because it just wasn’t prepared correctly. Three slender filets perfectly pounded lay on top of my choice of Angel Hair pasta. A generous but not excessive amount of sauce and capers covered everything. I took my knife (not needed) and fork and sliced into what proved to be a very tender, perfectly cooked veal filet. My first mouthful presented a light, lemony bite of tender veal. I was very surprised. Not because it’s a cafe. I was surprised because even high end restaurants can ruin this simple recipe. I was surprised because the veal wasn’t the finest cut, there was a small piece of grizzle in one, but because of the preparation, it rivaled a finer cut. The pasta was cooked a drained perfectly before pairing on the plate. I had one suggestion for our manger/waitress. I asked her to please arrange, for people like me, to offer a corkage fee for the diner to bring their own wine. If you were going to appreciate that pasta, you may want your own vintage. Best of all I can relax in a casual atmosphere, free of pretense and unnecessary high costs. My meal was $20.99. I have found my new go to dinner location. Please don’t try it, I hate crowds!

    I found this place one day while I was working in the area. I had a great breakfast and decided to try the place the next time I was in the area and I was not disappointed. Now it's become my favorite place to go to eat when I'm visiting Hobe Sound. Just great food, great service, great staff, and just a great experience. This time around I had to have the wings and fries again. I will say the place does get very busy at times and as long as you're patient with them you will get great service as usual.

    Great food! I usually get breakfast, but tried something different and I am really glad! Arugula salad with blackened mahi-mahi, an antipasto and a slice of real homemade cheesecake were our choices and everything was fresh and delicious!

    My buddy Joe said that was the best hash brown he's ever had. I ate grits so fluffy they tasted like clouds Eggs were cooked just right. Folk's were friendly. Heck we sang with a waitress. I'm glad I live close to Old Dixie North Diner. So I can go back there again. Thank you. Big smiles!

    The fries & chicken panini were good. The panini was a little toasty, but still good. The waitress was great. Cute diner. It smelled like cigarette smoke to me though, not sure if it was just an old odor or what exactly.

    I don’t normally post about a server bit Stacy was a breath of fresh air to have as my server. She was genuinely nice, friendly, and attentive. My glass stayed full and our order was delivered on time, along with the check when I was ready to go. Nice to see someone who’s attentive to the customer.

    What a great turn around in the last couple of years from the previous owners. These ladies work hard and the food is very good for Hometown Hobe sound. The tuna salad is exceptional. Made fresh every day as well as the chicken salad. Best burgers in town.

    The food is always good. The service is great as well. Even when it’s busy Troy and Marta will juggle each others tables and keep everyone happy. I’m always greeted with a happy smile as well. I have brought family and friends on many occasions and recommended this cafe to my associates as well

    Had breakfast for lunch at 2 o’clock and it was amazing. Homemade gravy was on point staff treated us like family and definitely the best part of the meal will definitely come back huge menu.

    Update: Went back for lunch and had the House Panini and it was one of the best I’ve ever had! Also highly recommended is the Turkey, Ham and Cheese Club! What a great way to start the New Year!!! This is the best restaurant in the area! Breakfast all day, because it's the most important meal of the day! Nicole and Troy are super nice and very helpful. They honestly make you feel right at home! They offered great suggestions which didn’t disappoint! The service was fast and the orders came out quick. It feels more like a family reunion than a restaurant. The kindness is amazing. You don't find places like this anymore. The food is delicious and if you’re hungry, you won't be when you leave. We had the Southern Scramble and the Country Fried Steak with Scrambled Eggs and (cheese), home fries and homemade biscuits! Absolutely WOW!!!! Breakfast specials every day til 10 lunch specials every day as well. They are in the corner of the plaza, come in and see them you won't be disappointed!

    I have been dining here for a number of months, including before the new owner took over. Since the new owner has taken over, I have seen a huge change over in ambience and quality of food. I can honestly say since I have been coming here. I have never experienced a bad meal whether it’s breakfast, lunch or dinner. I am having dinner as I read this. I ordered the chicken Caesar wrap with a side of pesto pasta and everything is delicious. Thanks. Will continue to come in to three times a week.

    First time eating here,lunch was open roast beef sandwich. It was very good with mashed potatoes gravy and steamed vegetables. Second time was eating off their dinner menu ordered Veal Parmesan. I was hoping it would be at least as good as my first meal. The veal was perfectly thin and cooked to perfection! Side of pasta again cooked to perfection. The gravy(sauce) was like my grandfather ( from Italy 🇮🇹 ) made garlic sliced thin, could taste all the spices. Will definitely be back.

    This is a casual place with good basic breakfast, lunch, and dinner foods we all know and love. The wait staff are friendly and professional. The service is timely and responsive and it's reasonably priced. Good p[lace top go to when you can't think of any place to go "get a bite to eat."

    I have had food poison since Wed when I ate there. Lost 2 shifts at work. I had open faced roast beef. I should of known how dark it was. My husband ordered fried shrimp which he had to send back because it was so over cooked. I called as a courtesy and didn't get much response. I have been in the service industry for over 40 years. Very disappointed.

  • 5/5 Steven H. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is fresh and tasty. Good portions with a fairly large menu. They seem to be busy every time I go, but the service is still quick and courteous. A great local restaurant to give your money to rather than the corporate giants that make communities uglier.

  • 4/5 Joseph R. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place for some good home cooking, was driving and looking for a place to eat and I found this place/ the only thing I can find wrong was the price was very high for a cup of orange juice, French toast with eggs and bacon and side of home fries was 20 plus dollars
