Always one of the hottest weekend brunch tickets in town, Jonathon's even had to open a second location down the road to accommodate the overflow. Housed in a restored 1930s bungalow in Oak Cliff, the eatery is best known for home-spun comfort food, which for brunch translates into breakfast tacos, pork chops & eggs, waffles and more. Must-haves on the wide-ranging menu include Danger Dogs (pancake battered, deep-fried turkey sausage links), and the diner's legendary fried chicken & waffle. Don't overlook the Nooner Burger or bread custard with citrus, banana syrup either. Also on offer is a build-your-own bloody Mary bar. Best part? Jonathon's churns out most of its brunch options all day throughout the week.
