Diner Grill is a family-owned and operated restaurant that has been a staple in Chicago's culinary scene for over 80 years. Established in 1937, we have been proudly serving traditional American comfort food made from scratch to the good people of Chicago. Our story is one of resilience and determination, as our restaurant has faced its fair share of challenges, including a devastating fire that destroyed our original location in 2016. But we refused to let adversity defeat us, and we rebuilt from the ashes, stronger and more determined than ever.
