Record Grill is a Timeless Diner with Classic Comfort Food in Downtown Dallas

Slapped next to a modest building on Elm Street in the heart of Downtown Dallas, Record Grill isn’t trying to impress with flash or flair—and that’s exactly why it’s a local legend. This no-frills diner has been turning out hearty American meals since the 1960s, offering up hot plates, warm service, and the kind of food that sticks with you long after you leave.

Come lunchtime, the grill gets going with juicy cheeseburgers, crispy bacon sandwiches, and chicken fried steak that channels old-school Texas soul.
