Diner's Delight Reviews
I had tasteless smothered wings, not seasoned. I had burnt ya n s and a glob of something that was supposed to be baked Mac that wasn't even pleasing to the eye nor to the taste bud. Very disappointed, I am one who support black owned businesses, people you have got to service a better quality of food. Poor representation of what is advertised as Soul Food.
Waited in a long line listening to people hype this food up. It's a hard no for me and my 14 y/o didn't like it either. Food had no flavor whatsoever. I was really surprised. I had turkey wing, Mac, dressing. Son had chicken wings, Mac, corn. So disappointing. I really wanted some soul food.
I had the meat loaf with three sides and hot water corn bread. Let me just say, the food had no seasoning, the sides I had were yams, Mac n cheese and cabbage. The meatloaf was a really huge ball of hamburger meat, wasn't good at all I'll never try again from this restaurant. Everything was cold. Just an overall bad experience for me.

Diner's Delight offers great soul food at reasonable prices with well-seasoned dishes and nice-sized portions. The establishment opens around 11:00 am, and arriving early is recommended for the best food quality. Despite some inconsistencies with the chicken wings, the overall experience is positive, especially for lovers of soul food. This Southside diner is a favorite spot for many regulars, including those who enjoy a Sunday meal, with professional and efficient service that is deserving of recognition. The baked chicken, pork chops, and pound cake are customer favorites, though the greens could use some improvement. While the dine-in area could use some upgrade, the food quality remains consistently good, and the friendly staff ensures an enjoyable experience, despite the small parking lot that suggests most customers order to go.
