I was in the area and decided to stop by because I only taste their food at random food festivals in the city. I really wanted the chicken empañada, but we got here around 2:30 PM, and they said they sold out. It seems something was going on with their supplier. We ordered the half chicken and fries and the chicken quesadilla. That marinade/sauce is so flavorful. The chicken was excellent! read more

Dino's Famous Chicken - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Tonight, I had dinner at Dino's Chicken and ordered their famous Dino's Chicken & Fries. I ordered it to go, but I was so hungry that I ate some at one of the tables inside before taking the rest home and eating a little more at home. I had been craving their chicken for a while, so I finally came back today. As always, there was a long line. At first, the line wasn't moving at all, which was a little frustrating, but fortunately, it started moving much faster soon after. I hadn't been here in years, so it was nice to come back after such a long time. The chicken is definitely tasty, but unfortunately, they grilled it a little too much this time and some of it was quite burnt. I guess that's partly because they grill the chicken directly on the grill. And, too spicy for me : both chicken and fries. Parking here is always a complete challenge because the parking lot is small and there are usually so many people. But my parking luck is always amazing -- cars somehow always seem to pull out right in front of me! And once again, today, a car pulled out right in front of me, so I was able to get a parking spot easily. It felt like another parking miracle! I asked for a cup of water, and he kindly gave me ice water. I also asked if I could have one extra plastic bag, and he gave me another one without any problem. The staff were very friendly, which was good. However, there's one thing to keep in mind when getting takeout here: the chicken is so oily that the grease can actually soak through and leak all over the plastic bag. You basically have to throw the first plastic bag away afterward. That's why I'm really glad I asked for an extra bag and brought one home with me. It definitely came in handy! read more

I got the double cheeseburger and chili cheese fries. The portions were solid for the prices, and the food tasted good. My only complaint is I wish the fries were a bit crunchier, but I did get the fries to go and eat them about 30 minutes after getting it, so that might have been a reason why. One thing to keep in mind is the prices in person are cheaper than online, and the phone number wasn't working when I tried to call to ask about it. They don't list prices on their website, which is what I was confused about since ordering online even to go was more expensive than prices from a menu picture 1 month ago. The parking is a bit rough, but this isn't a huge deal since it's in LA, so I don't expect them to have plentiful parking. I did have to get dropped off to order it while my friend stayed in the car. Overall, solid food and portions for the price! read more

My friend took me here and I fell in love. Let me first say... the food is a tad bit salty but I take the food and I just make extra rice at home and it's stretches with the gravy, so it makes sense for me. But if I was to eat the rice as is. Its too salty. The place is always pretty busy. Usually some parking in back, busy street, but definitely a LA staple. read more

This place is famous so I was lucky to try this place out for work. It's hard to find a chicken place that opens at 8am to buy 2 orders of chickens a la carte. I think i paid $35-40 each. They were pretty good with a little bit of heat. Healthy and tasty never felt one guilt eating them. Nice to eat a chicken with different spices going on. read more

Dino's Famous Chicken - Wow the interior for an upgrade - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Dino's is so overrated, I'm not sure why this place has such a cult following. We tried their Dino's Chicken Combo, in which the chicken came set on top of french fries; the marinade, the seasoning, and the sauce were just not good - it was such a weird sour/tangy type of a taste; the fries, of course, were soaked and soggy, so those who like sauce will either need to suck it up or get it on the side. In addition, the chicken itself was cold. Not even lukewarm, but cold. This means that they have prepared the chicken way in advance, and it's just sitting out for the next combo/order to be filled. And after a nibble, we tossed the whole thing. There's a few outdoor and a side seating; parking is a bit limited in their small lot, but you can also park on the street. No, thank you, Dino's. +inedible, cold chicken +not fresh +seating available +small lot for parking read more

I haven't had Dino's for such a long time, but my friend moved a block away from here, so decided to give it another go. We ordered the famous chicken and fries, and while ordering, a gentleman asked if we could grab him a meal, so we did. The first bite was absolutely delicious. The fries soaked in the special sauce they have, which tastes kind of similar to a seafood boil, was so flavorful. The chicken had a great amount of seasoning that brought out the flavor, and when inserted into a tortilla with the fries, had a wonderful flavor profile as well. The coleslaw was good too but nothing special. The only dumb thing I did was I didn't order a drink. This place gets really busy so if you get thirsty while eating, which you will, you can't really get a drink quickly. I kind of almost choked on my food and had to go back to my car to get a drink. Other than that, the food was good. The service is pretty quick, despite the long lines. The ambiance is that of an old school diner with a lot of outdoor seating. Definitely worth visiting. read more

Dino's Famous Chicken - 1/2 Dinos Famous Chicken with fries - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place hits!! I found out about this a few years ago, but I didn't know it was a long time establishment. The only thing I got was the chicken and fries, but I think that's all you really need. It's very flavorful and the fries. I soak up all the juices from the chicken, which make it so delicious. The service was excellent and they're super friendly, it's a takeout style place. I recommend just grabbing your food and heading home to enjoy. You'll definitely be in a food, if you can eat the whole thing, but I'd recommend to share.! read more

What I Ordered: -Dino's Chicken and Fries $16.45 1/2 Dino's Famous Charbroiled Chicken with Fries topped by Signature Marinade and Seasonings with a Side of Coleslaw and 3 Corn Tortillas I was discussing food comas with a friend, as it had been a while since I'd experienced one. The very next day, I went to Dino's Famous Chicken, and, well, I think I might have jinxed myself! It was my first food coma in years. I went to the window and asked for recommendations, eventually ordering the 1/2 Dino's Famous Charbroiled Chicken with Fries topped by Signature Marinade and Seasonings, a side of Coleslaw, and 3 Corn Tortillas. I had read online that their fries were soggy, and they were! However, they were covered in that famous marinade and spices, and I couldn't stop eating them. The chicken itself was similar to other charbroiled chicken I've had in LA. It wasn't dry, but not very moist either. The real magic is in the secret marinade and spices - they truly stand out. Dino's, I'll be back! read more

Yes, the ambience ain't great. The service was good and friendly. I haven't been to this place in years and I forgot that after I hear, I can't go near in El Pollo Loco for years. This place is El Pollo Loco on triple steroids, and makes El Pollo Loco taste like a Velveeta cheese sandwich. And don't get me wrong, I actually like El Pollo Loco, but this place just blows it out of the water so hard. Oh my God, so good chicken and fries. And really unique, I haven't really found anything quite like it in the city. read more

This place is amazing for the original famous chicken and Dino fries -- seriously, they're incredibly delicious and always hit the spot. That alone keeps me coming back. The service can be a bit hit-or-miss depending on the day, and the restaurant itself is starting to show its age and could definitely use some attention when it comes to cleaning and upkeep. Overall though, the food still makes it worth the visit. read more

I really wanted to like this place. I read the reviews and had super high hopes. Sadly, food was not great... or not what I consider to be great. Chicken was dry, sauce is spicy and too oily, fries were mid. I don't get the hype, sorry. read more

After years of ordering from Dino's online, this was my first time actually going there to order. The parking lot itself is small and can fill up quick. Service was quick and easy. Probably only waited 10 minutes. The inside is small but cozy with a light diner vibe to it. The food was delicious as always. Was hopping my food would be showered with sauce as always but there wasn't much to be found. Maybe it was the plate I ordered, but we'll try again next time. Anyways, Dino's will always leave you full and satisfied and even with some leftovers for the next day. read more

Had this food delivered to us so I can't review my dining experience.Best grilled chicken I've had in a while. Well seasoned and cooked with tons of flavor. I got my chicken on a bed of fries which made it even better. Had to get a side of their famous sauce. Also tried their chicken salad. Very delicious with fresh veggies and decent amount of grilled chicken. Don't sleep on their zucchini fries. Not too salty with just the right amount of batter. Overall a good meal at a reasonable price. read more

This is a staple in the community and I finally was able to go try the out. Although they are known for their world famous chicken, I went ahead and tried their DUI fried which has chili cheese, carne asada and pastrami on top of the fries. At first it seemed like too much going on for fried but the flavor was there. The chilli has a mild spice heat to it and the pastrami is nice and crispy! The guys behind the counter are always super nice and there's plenty of seating inside and out. I just suggest that if you are coming it he evening or weekend to order ahead as the lines tend to get long. The parking is limited but there is a lot of street parking to look out for. read more

We came for the delicious famous chicken and fries and got a cheeseburger as well. I feel weird saying this because Dino's is most famous for its chicken but it was honestly the best cheeseburger I've had in my life. The quality of the beef they use with the seasoning they use on the chicken was an absolute match made in heaven. I would definitely recommend trying the burger and of course the amazing chicken and fries. read more

This place will always be legit in my heart. I use to come here when I was young and remember plates being $5-7, they now cost $17. The food is delicious .. the taste has not changed ! Customer service is okay, not much interaction, you don't even have time to ask " how are you doing?" Lol ... plates are big and possibly good for 2 ppl to share ! I also ordered a hamburger for the first time and it was surprisingly good! Heads up weekends get super packed and parking is minimal ! Seating can become limited and often not as clean food in the floor and sticky tables PS. ORDER THE SAUCE ON THE SIDE FOR THE CHICKEN, fries will be soggy and not great for next day consumption read more

Being back home means one thing- Dino's Famous Chicken! That flavor is unmatched perfectly infused with Mediterranean spices and that signature vinaigrette that sets it apart from anywhere else.

We ordered food for pick-up, asked if my toddler could use the bathroom and was told by the employee--who was unfriendly to begin with--giving us the food that it was not a public bathroom. So ridiculous and unnecessary. We rushed to a nearby shop to use their facilities instead. Very disappointing, Dinos... read more

Amazing food, service and the ambiance is ok. Although they have gotten way pricey and the portion sizes have drastically decreased, I come back here for the quality of their cooking, unique flavors and one of a kind sauce on the roasted chicken. I typically order half fries, half beans with chicken, Cole saw and tortillas combination. It's super tasteful. It's definitely a guilt pleasure of mine lol Even after years of coming here, it's tends to get busy! They're definitely still in demand. Would recommend to people if they like charbroiled chicken, its taste it hard to find around here. The indoor seating can be small but if you come when it's not that busy, it might be a fit for you. The parking is minimal too unfortunately. Overall, I like location over their other location. Estimated $20 per person. Most likely the potion will get you full. read more

The servers are nice and friendly but the food sucked so bad. Pastrami burger with no flavor and the pastrami was so thick, chewy and rubbery I took it out of my burger and saved it for my cat. The fries are just a mushy ball of grease with no flavor. I was so excited to try it and so disappointed read more

After years of missing out--whether it was bad timing or those notoriously long lines--I finally made it to Dino's Famous Chicken, and wow... why did I wait so long? I ordered the famous chicken a la carte, and let me just say: this stuff lives up to the legend. The flavor is out of this world. It's spicy, but not in a "my mouth is on fire, send help" kind of way--it's the perfect level of heat that keeps you going back for more. You can taste the charbroiled, grilled goodness in every bite. The marinade seeps into the meat, and the skin? Absolutely packed with flavor. This isn't just fast food; this is a rite of passage for anyone in the LA area. If you've never been, stop playing yourself. Dino's is a must-try--especially when you catch it without a line. I should've come here years ago. I'm already planning my return trip. read more
