I've been coming to Dinah's with my family since I was a kid and it has never changed. It's the best to eat fresh and take in the farmhouse like atmosphere. The sodes for the chicken are the best around, I love everything from the potato salad and mac salad to the mash potatoes and chicken gravy they really give a delicious and complete meal for a decent price. I recommend trying the pineapple iced tea and a slice of one of their pies. Love this place and will be coming back always.

I live about a half hour away from Dinah’s but always heard the food was amazing, and the drive was worth it. The cozy feeling you get the minute you walk through the doors is something special. The waitress, Hanna, greeted us with such warmth and friendliness that it instantly made us feel welcome. I could not stop staring at all the beautiful Christmas decorations. You can tell it is family owned and the history behind the restaurant is really meaningful. The service was fast and I never had to ask for a refill once. When our food came, every bite was so good that we kept looking at each other like wow this is delicious. We cleared our plates. Then the pie came and now I cannot wait to go back and try every single one. Hats off to the cooks, the manager Camron, and the whole staff. It is a great place to visit and get a taste of this warm, friendly atmosphere. I honestly felt like I was at home.

Was in town and was really craving some chicken and waffles, so close proximity to the Airbnb we were at we found this hidden gem, great service, the chicken was absolutely juicy and flavorful. It hit the spot, if you are in the area and want some country kitchen food, its a must.

OMG…we had such an amazing dining experience at Dinah’s today. Being that we were 1st time diners, our server Kim, was extremely attentive and helpful with menu suggestions. Her effervescent personality was a refreshing touch! We had an opportunity to sample a few sides, all of which were fresh, well-seasoned and flavorful. Our meals were prepared to perfection and arrived piping hot! We definitely enjoyed every bite. AND…we purchased additional items to take out. Dinah’s is a culinary experience, one that everyone should try! You’ll be pleasantly pleased.

First time trying Dinah's. The restaurant has take out orders and indoor dining. Friendly service and really good chicken. Ordered 4 drumsticks to go and the chicken was fresh hot and delicious . The coating was light and crispy and the chicken pieces were large and very tasty. There is a wait for the chicken but every order it is made fresh and not sitting around like other fast food places. The chicken was hot juicy, super crispy and delicious but not heavily battered unlike other places. They also have shrimp platter , coleslaw, potato salad and even home made pies. Well worth a visit . Loved the chicken.

This place is as unbelievable and authentic as It gets. Hands down the best place in Los Angeles. We brought our youth program to come eat here and the owner was kind enough to give us a big discount. It was completely unexpected. She said it was her pleasure to give back to the community. Unbelievable food. Genuine owner who really cares about her customers.

Oh my gosh Dinah’s Chicken is so delicious. This spot is super local to me, and it brought back so many childhood memories. Growing up, my mom would always bring home the classic box of fried chicken with sides, and it was hands down one of my favorite meals. To this day, it’s still one of my all-time favorite mashed potato and gravy spots, and that fried chicken has The same crunch and unique flavor that are unforgettable. Im glad this is a family-owned owned business that has been passed down for generations and is still standing string because now I get to take my kids to enjoy it as well. I hadn’t been here in a while, and this was actually my first time dining in, and totally worth it. I honestly regret not coming back sooner. Everything tasted even better fresh and hot. We ordered the chicken sandwich, chicken and waffles, and a shrimp lunch meal, and every single dish was absolutely delicious. You can tell the food is made fresh on the spot — the chefs were in there working their magic, and it really shows in the quality and flavor. I highly recommend eating here in person because nothing beats enjoying this food fresh. Dina’s Chicken is a classic for a reason, and it still hits just as hard as I remember. Highly recommend! 🍗✨
