Dialo's Cafe - Benton Harbor

Always ALWAYS is good, best soul food much work and care goes into their food. Never a long wait and always great service

I have only gotten take out. Delicious. I'm not sure I've ever had a bad meal here.

As they say, you can 't judge a book by its cover . Don 't judge this restaurant by its building. The food was delicious ! There was no doubt that it was fresh and homemade, like grandma would make. Thank you to my friendly server Anna.

Dialo's had decent bbq. I love the smoke smell off the street! I love the black history and richness they have as wall decor. My two biggest cristisms was the rib tips was smothered in sauce and I'm more of a meat eater with sauce on the side; the other was the greens wasn't tender enough. However, I will be back for more ribs without sauce and to try their Mac and Cheese.

Wed 11.2.2022 5:00pm. While in Benton Harbor for a few hours taking care of business, was looking forward to eating some of Dialo's food, which is normally pretty good. Was planning on eating inside the restaurant today, instead of driving and eating. Amazingly, the host cashier would not let my wife and I sit inside to eat, even though it was two and a half hours before closing time! As you can see from the attached photo, they were not allowing anyone to eat inside. Not to be allowed to eat inside of a diner at 5:00 p.m. on a nice 70° day in November is unforgivable. We crossed the river and went to Cracker Barrel instead. Very disappointed.
