About Ellen’s Restaurant
Ellen’s is all about scratch-made Southern comfort food, served all day long. Named after the owner’s mother — a famously bad cook — Ellen’s does the opposite: hearty breakfasts, classic Southern plates, and new takes on timeless recipes.

I had a great breakfast here! I got the shrimp and grits and it was delicious! It was nice and hot temperature wise! The service was also great! Sarah was my server and she went above and beyond! I can’t wait to return when I visit Dallas again!

Our first experience of an American breakfast and it did not disappoint. Great location, great food and great service and the price was reasonable for what we ordered and for the ambience of the place.

In Dallas for the weekend. Walked to Ellen’s from our hotel and had a nice meal. Very pleased with Grits Benedict as I eat Gluten free. Seated without a wait for a late dinner.

What a way to have grits. Fried grits with blue berries oh my, heavenly! Fried Crabmeat! And the last one was fried cheese! Definitely will go back.
