I found the place to be very comfortable, clean, and cozy. I ordered around 1:30 pm so eating in the dining area was a bit open, but still staff were eager to serve even the simplest of tasks like getting napkins. The fried chicken was flavorful, but I’ve had chicken from hundreds of places really hard to get high marks on that. However I do recommend to try. Fried chicken 7. Greens 9. Yams 9. Dressing 9. Mac and cheese 6. Very pleasant meal and note my aunties are my standard of 10s. Try them out!

Our families meal was an absolute delight! The chicken was perfectly cooked, with a mouthwatering tenderness that made every bite a savory experience. The seasoning was just right, adding a burst of flavor without overpowering the natural taste of the chicken. Paired with the juicy peas and vibrant greens, each component of the dish complemented the other beautifully. The peas were a pleasant surprise, bursting with freshness and offering a sweet contrast to the savory chicken. As for the greens, they were cooked to perfection, tender yet retaining their crispness. The seasoning on the greens was subtle but enhanced their earthy taste, making them a delightful addition to the plate. Altogether, it was a symphony of flavors that left me thoroughly satisfied and eager to return for another delicious meal.

Went for lunch, ate inside and got sweet potatoes, spaghetti, chicken. They gave me a large amounts of the side dish and with every spoon I took of the sweet potatoes, it was hot. Food was fresh and good in my stomach Got a dinner plate before I left with 3 pieces of at a catfish, cole slaw, and spaghetti. Nibbled off the fish later that evening and it was soft, easy to chew and tasteful. ( still full from lunch ). Diner's Delight has just become my new best friend.

Be prepared to wait on Sundays! Wait is worth it. Turkey wings, chicken, wings, the sides & don’t forget the caramel cake. All so good! The caramel cake melts in your mouth & is perfect for dessert. Service is fair also. Great restaurant all around!

This place is indeed awesome an STL monument!! The food is great and the company is always entertaining "fellow customers" your going to be together for a while. The wait is ridiculous and could be more efficient with a different cashier or add another cashier station. No matter how long the line is the current cashiers pace stays the same..... 5 minutes to wipe his brow, 5 minutes to grab a sip of beverage.... 7 minutes to ring up an order thats been lined up for 10 min. Bless his heart. My family will continue to support. Just a suggestion.
