Reviewer: Terry Total Reviews: 739 Reviewed: 10/21/2007 Rating: 8.5 My photo gallery	Dino's was a wishlist request from riottgirl and I didn't have too much trouble finding the place, as I used to live somewhat nearby. The place is in the same shopping complex as the Safeway and Osh (across from the Cattlemens) in Newark. At first I was a little scared that it was replaced by a chinese restaurant, as Dino's is smashed between a taco bell and chinese place. But fear not, its there. It has a nice classic feel to it, with a decidedly greek twist to it. The menu items feature a lot of greek take's on the classic burger, with many good greek dishes (like gyro's) offered as well. I resisted the urge to go off the menu, and instead stuck with the daily special of Crab salad sandwich with the ceasar salad. The kids were also with me today, eating, and ordered kids items (which are offered on a separate kids menu here) To make things short, service was great, and food arrived quickly. The drinks were the one letdown, as its a soda machine but all of the drinks there are lower tier stuff like RC cola or other equivalents. Kind of a bummer for an otherwise top-tier place. Kids thoroughly enjoyed their root beers, as well as their chicken fingers & fettuchini alfredo. I really liked my super-rich crab salad sandwich. It was so stuffed with the rich crab I had a hard time finishing it off. I also polished off the salad beforehand (been in a salad mood lately for some reason) - and that probably explains it too. But I did finish it. Good stuff. The fries here were your standard thick cut, but were done up well. My family looks forward to returning here again soon to try more off the menu. Maybe this weekend - I'll post an update.
