Dari-ette Drive In
Best Lil' Drive~In on the East Side :).
My mother works in St. Paul, on 7th St. Most every nite I take my mom home from work (and I live in Eagan). She lives a couple miles away from the Dari~ette, and this is the place she wants to visit
for her late nite dinner. The Dari~ette Drive In is quaint (charming) and has better than home made food. The menu is even bigger and better than most restaurants. My mother and I enjoy sitting outside the Dari~ette, having good food and enjoying good conversation.
Great place to take a date, your family, grandparents or even when your walking your dog...cuz they have places to sit outside.
The Dari~ette is not only cute but they have awesome, yummy food :)
Enjoy ~ Peg…
RIP OFF!. So back in September I bought a coupon for 1/2 price food, ($15.00 value for $7.50) only to find out that, unlike a typical DQ that serves food throughout the winter months, they close for the winter, and my coupon expires in February 2012!! I have two words to say "RIP OFF!" Will they be honoring these online deals when they open next season? I doubt it, as they refuse to even discuss it with me,..NICE CUSTOMER SERVICE! If not, why would they offer a deal with an expiration date four months AFTER they close, (and probably a month or more before they re-open!?!) I would just like to add that the website where I purchased this made no mention of their closing for the winter, it only gave an expiration date next February, which is what I based my purchase on! They have since deleted all of my posts and requests on Facebook to honor their discount coupon that I paid for!~…
Great Fried Chicken. The food is great, but call ahead if you are in a hurry. They make the stuff fresh, if you want McDonalds don't come here as they cook it as they get the order and they get busy. Give them about a 1/2 hour for the chicken but since Jerry's is gone on White Bear this is now the best fried chicken around.…
Dairyette is awesome. Old school drive in with great burgers, root beer floats and sandwiches. Tried the spaghetti and meatballs last fall and was happily surprised at how delicious it was - thick sauce with a really rich flavor. Garlic cheese toast almost didn't make it home with the rest of the to go order.…
Excellent Food, Top Quality, Very Clean. The Dari-Ette is a staple of the East Side of St. Paul. The business is built on family values and doesn't sacrifice quality. As a former employee (many years ago) I know that the owner will never sacrifice quality in ingredients and it will always be the cleanest place that you will ever eat. I look forward to the opening every year and drive 25 + miles to get there. Yes, sometimes it pays to call ahead because the wait may be long but sometimes patience is necessary when you are doing buisiness with a small establishment. This is not a chain restaurant and all items are made to order. The prices could be less expensive too if the owners chose to use cheap ingredients but that wouldn't be the Dari-Ette way. I recommend the Dari-Ette to everyone who appreciates excellent food and family tradition.…
