First time going since new owners. I was very impressed with how clean they have made it and my ribeye was perfect well worth the price. My mother got hamburger stk and she loved it also. The owner is very nice came and made sure our food was right and delicious. I will be going back. So glad I gave it a chance again.

It's unfortunate to see new ownership ruin an established restaurant. Let's break down our current visit:
My wife and I ordered the Alpine Chicken; always a great dish. Usually comes with a 6-7oz piece of chicken. The latest visit, the chicken was 3-4oz, if I'm being generous. She ordered a side salad as a substitution (side salad is listed as a side on the menu, no info about substitutions costing more). You can add a side salad for $3.99 but if you substitute a side for a salad, it's also 3.99? At that point you're just being robbed of a side.
The baked potato I received was so burnt and dry you couldn't even cut into it. The green beans that my wife ordered were dripping in oil. The prices have went up 20 to 30% since the new ownership. We were initially charged for two drinks that we did not order, but these were removed.
Since the new ownership the prices are higher, the food quality is lower, and the food portions are also smaller. It's a shame to see a beloved downtown Elizabethton Diner on the path to ruin.

Completely shocked when we ordered a basic spaghetti dinner and child chicken fingers. 2 small tenders with about 20fries, no drink. Child's meal was 10.99 and spaghetti was 13.99. No salad. Never going back. Too small portions for price. Nice service

This place has gone downhill the prices have gone up and the lasagna is nasty a frozen lasagna is better than what they have for sale it's a shame that this place has gone downhill this fast
I am so disappointed in the new Dino’s. I use to eat there at least 4 times a month and always had a great experience. Now since the new owners things have changed. The prices have gone outrageous. Not affordable anymore for what you get. What use to be our go to is now our not go to.

I’ve eaten at Dino’s over the past 30 years . It’s actually hard to say that! But I will say my wife and I enjoyed dinner Friday night prior to the rodeo for the first time in 10+ years. It was amazing . Service , speed, and it was the best Dinos I’ve had in 30
Years . Lidia , was a pleasure . Highly recommend.

My husband and I have always eaten at this restaurant through the years. It wasn’t the same and I’m truly sad. Dinos was known for its great food. We knew Dino personally. The sauce definitely tasted different. It didn’t have the great herbs that was used before. I beg you. Go back to the way everything was before or it will fade away. The people who have spent years eating there notice. That’s not a good thing.

Definitely not the Dino's of yester-year. Food was warm but not hot. Lasagna was like a frozen entrée from the grocery store. Server was very nice.

Just didn't taste good I got the lasagna and the noodles where Over cooked and the sauce tastes like tomato sauce with cheap seasoning my opinion a frozen lasagna would been a butter choice

I had my first Lasagna at Dino's in 1967 & loved it & always came to Dinos when i moved away & would visit! I moved back 10 yrs ago & continued to go to Dino's! I hadnt been in several months & stopped by today! I could tell as soon as it was served that it was different! Not just different but horrible! Everything was different, the sauce, the cheese, the meat & whatever the green leaves were that was in it! Even the bread! Why would you change the very mainstay of Dinos restaurant! Sorry, but i could always count on Dinos for the Best Lasagna! Not anymore!
