In the immortal words of the beloved drag patron saint RuPaul, “You Better Work”… your way on over to Oak Cliff for the fabulosity that is the newly opened Cliff Café, right next door to the Belmont Hotel.

Helmed by chefs Douglas Brown and Stephen DeSandro, Cliff Café serves up “comfort food” with a foodie twist - three meals daily, seven days a week. Think Flo from Mel’s Diner, but this time she’s telling you to “kiss her grits” that have been pan seared in a balsamic reduction.

Dinner menu favs include Italian Style Meatloaf, Spicy Mango Glazed Pork Shank and ooey gooey Mac and Cheese. There’s also contemporary breakfast classics, a sandwich and burger lunch menu and signature cocktails like the Root Beer Float made with Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum, Galliano and vanilla ice cream. Don’t worry, that carb-free diet doesn’t start until after you’ve eaten here.

Main plates run about $11 to $20 and come with two sides
so you can stay true to your promise to mom to eat
your vegetables.
