    Norma Manis opened this Oak Cliff diner in 1956, and it has been a Dallas institution ever since for its chicken-fried steak, biscuits and gravy, and house-baked Mile-High Pies. The portions have stayed as generous as the reputation, and the original Davis Street room anchors a handful of locations.
