This Pittsburgh gem has been featured on the Food Network’s Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, so if you haven’t been there you may have heard of it. A friend suggested we go for a late breakfast, and it was worth the trip. Arriving just around 10:30 am, we did not have to wait for a table, and received very prompt and courteous service. I chose LORI’S STUFFED RASBERRY FRENCH TOAST, complete with a side of bacon. This is one of the items that was featured on the show, and looked so good I had to try it for myself. It wasn’t what I expected, as it was individual slices of french toast with the filling in between (not “stuffed” in a traditional sense, you could say). Boy, it was good, though!! The raspberry component was excellent—not sure exactly what it was—it was pink, not red, so it was mixed with something. Yummy, none the less!

This will definitely call for a repeat visit to try some of the other menu favorites, like the Banana and the Pumpkin Pancakes.

Worth the stop!!

Typically put-off by storefront evangelization, both the advertisement of biblical quotes and the FoodNetwork stamp are usually sour notes in my consideration. That said, for a diner, this place is indeed outstanding. I love it here, enough to take pics at my initial visit and enough to force my husband to take a day off work to avoid the lines and get fed. Service is Pittsburgh friendly, and the food is solid, consistent and fab. I’ll go back and take friends each chance I get.

I have been to the Dor-Stop many times since they moved across the street. The new digs are spacious and comfortable. The place is spottlessly clean, the food delicious. Friendly fast service at very reasonable prices. The Dor-stop is my favorite breakfast place!
