dena's home cookin'

excellent food and great atmosphere. always feel welcome and service is amazing. you wont find a betterplacefor quality and quantity vs. price. i would give dena's a 5star rating!!

my boyfriend and i were in niagara falls and looking for aplacefor breakfast. when i saw the reviews for dena's home cooking, we thought we found the perfectplacefor breakfast. when we arrived theplacelooked closed, as i was looking for a newplacewe saw people starting to arrive. we went in, we were seated right away, i started to look around and notice a couple of roach hotels on the floor one behind my boyfriend and the other behind me. we thought we would give it a try. i had the blueberry pancakes and my boyfriend had the peameal bacon with a side of mushrooms. the pancakes were so dry that no amount of syrup could moisten them. they tasted like they had been made earlier, frozen then reheated. my boyfriend breakfast peameal bacon was partial raw eggs over salted, mushrooms were cold and greasy. we could barely eat the food we just paid and left the only good thing i could say was that it was not to expensive.

i very much enjoyed my breakfast here. it's a smallplaceand family run. dena is nice and will likely be the one taking your order. the food came out super fast and was flavourful. some of the best home fries i've had in a long time and i love the mushrooms and tomato that come out with the meal. i had blueberry pancakes. if you aren't a big eater don't be a hero, just get the junior size. but my favorite part was the peameal. thick cut slices. grilled perfect so they were still tender and juicy. overall a really good breakfast at a really good price and supporting a local business to boot.

the best of the best!!!. our experience at dena's was one we soon won't forget! we were served promptly by dena herself. right from the get go we felt welcomed, as if we had been regulars for years. the menu consisted of a wide variety of different pallets to fit even the pickiest kid out there! (a.k.a. my 3 year old) lots of vegetarian options (the roasted red pepper and feta omelet is to die for) as well as plates heaping with sausage, bacon, ham, back bacon for the carnivor in the family! (a.k.a my husband). real home fries, texas toast... even fresh tomato, fried mushrooms and fresh fruit! the coffee and tea is included in the price of your breakfast. inplacelike niagara falls, where you have to pretty much re-mortgage your house to find a decent meal, dena's is a breath of fresh air. so much awesome all in one tiny restaurant, i promise you will regret not coming sooner!

'out of towners'..it's worth the stop over. found thisplacethrough a random google search and i am so happy i came. nothing beats a good ol' home cooked meal and thisplacesurely satisfies that need! the best part of it was that my meal (for 2) was $17 with tax! can't get this quality of cooking anywhere else. thanks to linda, dena, and the jolly gentleman in the kitchen for making our visit to niagara worth the drive....

great breakfast and service. we wanted to find a classic diner away from the clifton hill area before we left, and thisplacewas fantastic. huge portions, great prices and fantastic friendly service. theplaceis small so you may have to wait, but it is definitely worth it. neither one of us could finish our meals, but i will definitely be going back next time i'm in the area. (the fried mushrooms for breakfast was an unexpected tasty bonus).

denas restaurant. wow what a greatplaceand great staff. the prices were very low for the food. had too wait outside but told it was a greatplacewe were a large group. they moved us in quickly a small but very nice inside. the food came fast and large proportion we were very pleased.from out of town we told many of are friends .about thisplacealso i should mention one of are friends had food allergies and made sure there food was safe for them .thumbs up thanks for a great stay and meal.

great food! great value! great conversation!. august 2014. my family and i (mom, dad and two teenage boys) were visiting niagara falls. i wanted us to eat at a canadian restaurant. we had breakfast at dena's. it is a cozy little eatery just 10 to 15 minutes outside the tourist area. theplacewas packed. the staff was warm, friendly and quite accomodating. we waited a few minutes and it was definately worth the wait. we had the best meal with more than enough food. the owner was engaging and and gave us quite a few pointers on where to go to get the best out of our trip. thank you all at dena's. we really appreciate your hospitality.

everyone should go here for breakfast. thisplacewas awesome. it was on our way to wine country, and my goodness, i got the cheapest price for a plate of food so big i could barely finish it. everything was delicious, and the staff was extremely gracious! worth the drive!

mmmmmmm mmm. mmmmm.. found thisplaceon urbanspoon when we were looking for aplaceto have breakfast. had great reviews so went for it. we were not disappointed one bit! dena's is amazing. the food was absolutely delicious and the service was fast and attentive. dena and her family were very pleasant and chatted with us. they definitely appreciate their patrons and value your business. also, the prices are ridiculously good. for the quality of food and service you get, paying double what we did wouldn't have seemed all that unreasonable. highly highly highly recommend.

amazing. we we're in town with a few of the guys celebrating a couple of birthdays, saw the reviews online so we thought we'd give it a try. called them as they were closing and they said they would stay open just for us!!

let me tell you thisplacedid not disappoint one bit. we ordered off their brunch menu and it was the best home cooking ever. the eggs benedict that i had was to die for. the owner even brought us a plate of their peameal bacon to try for those of us that didn't have it in their breakfast.

the jist: prices were very reasonable, the food amazing, the staff extremely friendly - definitely coming here again next time we're in town.

awesome place. came for march break with the kids. didn't want to over pay for industrial franchise food like the ihop and had enough of eating at tim's and ending up hungry after an hour. read the
reviews and decided to give it a try. it was great. delicious food, big portions everything was delicious and tasted homemade but better than i could ever make it.
my wife had the vegetable omelet and i had the big mans breakfast. each kid had the classic breakfast and a glass of juice. everything tasted so good including the coffee and theplacehad all local customers who were regulars by the greetings that were going back and forth. we felt very welcomed and cozy. 2 adults and 4 kids eat and drank well (and took leftover's) for $55 after tax and a tip for the excellent service.
you have to try dena's!

fantastic!! looking for aplaceoff the beaten path for breakfast when down in niagara falls. this is exactly theplaceyou want for a simple, reasonably priced breakfast. friendly service. food came fast. would definitely recommend!

cosy, delicious and cheap food. finally hit thisplaceup with the fam. it was amazing! :d
the chef comes to your table, really friendly nice guy. the food's delicious and flavourful. the eggplant parm is out of this world and the sauce is killer. it's a smallplaceand cosy... if you know what i mean. will be going back for sure!

this was a fantastic breakfast!! everything near the falls is so expensive! for two coffees, a big breakfast wrap, side of toast, and a veggie omelette with feta the bill came to $18!! my boyfriend and i were so stuffed after that meal. the portions were big and the food tasted amazing! i'd much rather give my money to a mom and popplacethan a chainplaceby the falls any day!
