Amazing value for the price! It’s situated in the middle of nowhere, but the amount of food they give is crazy! We ordered beef and veggie fajitas and shrimp tacos. My beef fajitas were tasty! The meat was tender and well seasoned. Vegetables shone as well, particularly the bell peppers. This was a great stop for us on the way back from DC.

Really nice staff, great prices and the menu has something that everyone can enjoy! I’ve never seen a diner and Mexican restaurant combination but I love it! The restaurant was very clean and dimly lit for a relaxing vibe. Our food was delicious and came out super fast! If you’re in town stop by, you won’t be disappointed. 10/10 !

Nice local place! Great food, service, and not too busy. I loved the Reuben. My son got the kids hot dog - Heads up it's a little spicy! He still deemed it worthy to eat. His mashed potatoes and gravy were yummy as was my onion rings for sides.

Very surprised at this little gem found on our road trip. While the outside only stated "diner", the menu has both standard diner fare as well as Mexican options. We were the first customers of the day and the lobby smelled a little strong of cleaning products but the place was well set and the staff friendly. Food was prompt and delicious. Did not order drinks but noted they did offer a full alcohol selection. Bathrooms were clean but no coat/purse hook.

A hidden gem! We decided to try this place out. I had the chicken fried steak, and my husband had the meatloaf. Both were so delicious! We will definitely come back!

Excellent service, great food. This is not “good food, for the money”- this is great food for a less than average price! Do not let the humble exterior fool you, it was clean and a solid spot and an excellent rest spot for myself and my family, as we were on a long journey, traveling home. (bonus points that there was a gas station right next-door- also a dollar store within three minutes to grab some last minute essentials)

such a hidden gem, food was flawless and the restaurant is spectacularly clean. we pulled off on a road trip and were not expecting such high-quality food. we ordered from the mexican side of the menu. The lunch shrimp fajitas were flavorful and the shrimp themselves were high quality: comparable to any i’ve eaten seaside. the tacos al pastor were not cooked on a spit as is traditional, however the pork still had a pleasant chew and sported a perfect seasoning. both came with rice and beans which could not have been done better anywhere or by anyone else. if i didn’t live two hours everyday, i would come solely for the rice and beans. service was good and the bathrooms are clean. this restaurant is a must stop on trips up i-85.

This isnt the old dinwiddie diner! Food is a delicious service is amazing and it is so much cleaner when it was just dinwiddie diner! The new owners really know what they are doing will continue to come back. Ps a group of young men were in here the same time as me. Never have I seen such a group of respectful young men! They were all driving big trucks. Respect for the dinwiddie parents that raised those boys!
