Dads was breakfast after 220 miles of driving. Great people, service and especially food. I saw people eating huge slices of chocolate cake at 10 am, others tucking in to a huge burger and fries. Breakfast enchiladas were my choice and I can't wait to return. Everyone walks out of Dads with a smile on their face!

I had a great experience dining here! The food was tasty and the service was excellent. everyone was so friendly and welcoming. Even though it was a slower time when I visited, I really appreciated seeing the staff staying busy by cleaning. Overall, a wonderful place to eat and I’ll definitely be coming back!

Dimitri our server was spectacular & very attentive. The food was so yummy & we loved the 50's diner atmosphere. When I used to live in Farmington as a teenager I liked coming here but today's experience was even better than I remembered.

We’ve had the pleasure of being served by Ashlee twice now, once on her very first day and again just yesterday and she has been outstanding both times. Even on day one, she was friendly, attentive, and making us feel genuinely welcomed. On our second visit, she was just as impressive and checking on us at the right times. making sure everything was perfect and how we liked it Ashlee has a great attitude, excellent service, and a warm personality that really stands out and we’ll be asking for her again next time we come in!

We have frequently enjoyed Dad’s Diner over the years, and we always have a great meal. Vast menu, good food and fun nostalgic atmosphere, and attentive service, yesterday from Derek, entice us to return when we come down from Durango. Highly recommend.

We visited an old friend in Farmington and he took us this place. Wow! The chicken fried steak was fantastic. The steak enchiladas was great. The staff was friendly and informative. Great family place. Nice dining atmosphere.

Mushroom burger Enchilada plate Chicken fried steak breakfast w/pancakes. Burger was flavorful but a bit soggy, guessing from the mushrooms. Still good. CFS & gravy was tender with great flavor. Pancakes great. Enchiladas were excellent with both red & green chile bursting with flavor. Both w a little heat. Service was EXCELLENT Fast, friendly and right on the money with every request. (extra napkins/lemons) Lots of great menu choices and be sure to try that crazy chocolate cake. We'll be back! Great job.

Just finished an awesome meal with terrific service. The chicken fried steak and biscuits and gravy were absolutely perfect. I was surprised how little grease was on the hash browns. Overall, very please. Try it out!

Best swiss mushroom burger I've ever had. Perfectly cooked burger with real sauteed mushrooms (not canned). Delicious! They have a whole basket of curly fries as a side. So good! The whole place is very 1950's diner themed. Great atmosphere, comfortable seating (mix of booths, counter, and tables), friendly staff. Excellent place! Highly recommend!
