DALLAS – The Highland Park Cafeteria opened 95 years ago in 1925 on Knox Street in the foothills of Highland Park, a highly affluent town in central Dallas County, Texas.

Only the Casa Linda location in East Dallas survived and was called the ‘Casa Linda Cafeteria.’
In 2007, a new owner, changed the name back to the original name, ‘Highland Park Cafeteria.’
The Highland Park Cafeteria announced the sad news on Monday, May 11, that it will remain closed after the temporary closure due to the COVID-19 crisis.
