Our Story

Welcome to the flavorful journey that is Dino’s Chicken and Burgers, a tale that spans generations and is rooted in family, tradition, and the pursuit of culinary excellence.

Founding Vision: Our story begins with Demetrios Pantazis, a visionary who embarked on the adventure of creating a restaurant with a single goal – to support his family and community through hard work and the joy of sharing exceptional food. What started as a local burger joint evolved into something extraordinary.

Greek Heritage and the Famous Chicken: Demetrios's Greek heritage played a pivotal role when he introduced the marinade that would become the heart and soul of our Famous Chicken. Drawing from the rich flavors of his cultural background, he transformed Dino’s from a simple eatery into a destination known for its delectable chicken.

A Legacy Passed Down: The torch was passed to Jimmy, affectionately known as Dino, who not only inherited the restaurant but also the secret chicken recipe. Under Dino’s guidance, the restaurant flourished, solidifying its place as a cherished establishment in the heart of Los Angeles.

Generations of Dedication: Today, the legacy lives on through Jimmy’s four daughters, who manage and operate our five locations. Their dedication ensures that the values, traditions, and, most importantly, the exceptional taste of Dino’s Famous Chicken continue to be shared with our community.

The Famous Chicken Experience: What sets Dino’s Chicken and Burgers apart is more than just the ingredients; it’s the passion, history, and commitment to delivering an extraordinary culinary experience. Our Famous Chicken, marinated to perfection, reflects decades of hard work, innovation, and a genuine love for creating unforgettable flavors.

A Taste of Tradition: From our humble beginnings to becoming a symbol of culinary excellence, every bite at Dino’s is a celebration of family, community, and the rich history that defines us. We invite you to savor the taste of tradition and experience the warmth and hospitality that have been at the heart of Dino’s Chicken and Burgers for generations.

Thank you for being a part of our story. We look forward to continuing this flavorful journey with you.
