Hot Rods 50's Diner
Alcoa, Tennessee
http://www.hotrods50sdiner.com/
My girlfriend and I go there all the time. I've always been very happy with their food, prices, and service. They have over 70 kinds of burgers! They even have a donut burger! Shakes, fries, you name it. The have the outside of the building all painted with old cars and the inside walls are covered in old car signs and vintage license plates, neon signs, everything. It's pretty neat. If you're ever in the area definitely try and stop by!

I don't know if this place has been mentioned already but my wife and I stopped by the Silverado Cafe last week in Silverado Canyon, Orange County, CA. Real nice little diner/dive in a remote part of the OC, in what little is left. |

Ill add to the list if not. .
After a lazy day...storm laden evening.. my wife and I decided to try a small Thai place we had heard about last night..
Small grille within an oriental market..
Killer food and portions for a good price...
The outside did not represent the food quality we received.
The Thai Hut

I'll add a couple:
Ziggy's Pizza
3700 E Douglas Ave (Clifton Square)
Wichita, Kansas
Maybe the best Pizza I've ever eaten. It certainly isn't a dive. I'd describe it as more of a "hipster" type place. Dining room is small, seating limited.
Los Dos Potrillos
2022 Forest Ave
Great Bend, Kansas
Authentic Mexican place run by authentic Mexicans. (Owners don't speak much English, but wait staff is proficient). Very good food.
Recommended: Taco Salad or Enchilada Dinner
The RACK
3322 Railroad Avenue
Great Bend, Kansas
This place is hard to find without a map or GPS. Definitely a "dive". The building looks like it could fall down any minute from the outside. Actually a decent family restaurant/Billiards club. (Pool hall). All of their burgers are called "Racks". The "Fried Onion Rack"; the "Jalapeņo Rack". You get the idea.
Recommended: Chili Cheese Rack (burger). Burger served open faced with a mildly seasoned chili covered with cheese. Fries on the side.
Gella's Diner
117 E 11th Street
Hays, Kansas
Local restaurant with a unique menu and microbrewery. Lots to offer. Everything is top notch.
BrookVille Hotel
105 E Lafayette Ave (Just off Interstate 70, North Side)
Abilene, Kansas
So named because it was originally located in Brookville, Ks and was originally a Hotel/Restaurant. The original building has been "recreated" in this location. One of the oldest continuously run restaurants in the state, this family owned business has been serving Fried Chicken dinners family style since the late 1800's. There is no menu. You get fried Chicken, potatoes, rolls, vegetables, salad, cole slaw, etc. Call ahead for reservations.[/u] |

Stumbled across this one while out n about.
Food Factory Craft Diner
5251 Hickory Blvd, Hickory, NC 28601
https://geo0.ggpht.com/cbk?cb_client=maps_sv.tacti...9118997733
Prime Rib was great.. and Im particular about my prime..
My wife's Citrus Seafood Pasta . not so much.. it was swimming for its life in too much sauce..
I tried the "award winning"deep fried deviled eggs.. IMO good..but not for everyone..
Crabby Pups.. were huge.. too puppy.. not enough crabby.. but good.
It has some good decor, nice view of the river (Lake Hickory) .. friendly people and a good beer selection.
I'd go back.. hence why I'm adding.
Spotted this on the wall in a few places..

I love the A&W drive-in on the Oregon coast in Florence. It still has the original look like stepping into a time machine.

Just to bump this up..
Tis a bit pricey but food is delicious. .
Lily's Italian Bistro
141 W. Main Ave,
Gastonia NC 28052
And.. a killer place.
Another high end joint..Pricey, but atmosphere and food is out of bounds top notch.
Built in the local town movie theater and always has classic movies rolling while you dine. Has lower or upper balcony levels. Nice classy old feel..
I dig it..
