About Dinky Diner

Dinky Diner is a cozy spot where customers feel at home. The friendly staff accommodates various dietary restrictions with ease. Guests appreciate the warm atmosphere, delicious food, and reasonable prices. The food is good, service has always been outstanding, and the atmosphere is kitschy. The jalapeño burger is fabulous, and the chili is great—closer to the kind you'd find at a chili cook-off than a restaurant. The breakfast is even better, with very large portions like the chili and cheese omelet and chicken fried steak. The hash browns are absolutely amazing. This is a must stop for home cooking at its very best, serving a fabulous lunch like a wrap and Turkey Club with tasty homemade fries. The place is especially charming, with friendly staff and a clean environment. Visitors often praise the welcoming atmosphere, especially for families with children, who are treated with kindness and even given coloring books and video games to keep them happy. The restaurant is small but offers excellent, hand-cut fries and a perfect burger, making it a great spot to enjoy a nice meal in a little town rich in Nevada Gold Rush history.

Share your opinion about Dinky Diner

On a trip to Reno from Las Vegas we wanted to try something not a national fast food chain.
Dinky Diner was open.
We pulled into a dirt lot, admired some old rusting cars in a nearby lot I wish I could restore and walked to front door. Neon sign said open but bright sun hid that some and it otherwise looked closed.
We opened the door and it was at at least 60% capacity of customers.
We navigated flow and were seated where I could see some grill work and still be in...read full review
Simple classic diner. No frills just a family owned place with real good food. My wife and will make this a regular stop.
i had a deluxe breakfast sandwhich and it was the most perfect thing i've ever had.
