Diz's is truly the gem of Manchester! I moved here from Florida a few months ago and had no idea where to eat, so I started relying on Google—and that's how I found Diz's. Since then, I’ve told countless people at work, the gym, and my friends about how great this place is. Every time I’ve visited, the staff has been friendly and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. The food? Amazing. I love the burgers, but the buttermilk tacos with cauliflower rice are next-level. It’s like classic diner food—elevated—with healthy options that don’t sacrifice flavor. Five stars, all day!

Great lunch spot. The menu has variety, which i like obviously, and from what I can tell, almost everything is made in-house. Our service was pleasant and swift, we stopped in for an early lunch at 11:30 and sat at the big window. Our food was delicious and made from quality ingredients. Onion rings were incredible

As nutritionist and someone who has many severe food allergies. I was very excited that I was able to have the beef taco on a corn soft shell. The flavor was absolutely wonderful. I had the opportunity to speak with the owner and I would travel and will do so an hour drive just for that taco again. They also informed they could do a fish taco for me as well. Service was absolutely fantastic. Felt comfortable having out business meeting there and never felt rushed. Thank you for an enjoyable evening.

I had heard great things about this place so I decided to head over with my daughter. The atmosphere inside is great. It was close to Christmas and they gave us some construction paper to make a paper chain to decorate the restaurant. We wrote little messages on them and put our chains together! It was a fun quick craft while we waited to eat. It was pretty busy and the food came out in a reasonable time. We both had the fried chicken sandwich I had mashed and she had fries. The sandwich was delicious and so were the mashed potatoes. We will definitely be back!

We recently visited this restaurant before a concert and were under a very tight time constraint. When I explained our situation to the owner, she was incredibly friendly, honest, and accommodating. Although she mentioned that the kitchen was extremely busy and couldn't guarantee our food would arrive in time, she still went out of her way to make us feel welcome. Our waitress was equally attentive and understanding of our schedule, ensuring everything moved as smoothly as possible. I ordered the buttermilk mac and cheese, and my wife had the hamburger. Both meals arrived with time to spare, and more importantly, they were absolutely outstanding. Ironically, the only downside to our experience was that we had to rush through such a fantastic meal to make it to the concert on time! That's certainly not the restaurant's fault—in fact, it's a testament to how much we wished we could have lingered and enjoyed every bite. From the exceptional hospitality to the delicious food and outstanding service, this restaurant exceeded our expectations. We will absolutely be returning, and next time we'll make sure to allow ourselves enough time to fully enjoy the experience.

I’m not a Mac & cheese eater but once I sampled her plate, I was hooked. Incredible delicious. Fish tacos were spectacular as well.

Dispinaca and chips for app The best my lips have ever tasted. The chicken tenders top notch. And the steak bowl was slamming. Can not believe it took me so long to try this place. Service and food was phenomenal. My new favorite spot.

It's everything you want in a comfort food diner, especially on a snowy late afternoon when you just need a good supper plate. Surprisingly affordable. Delightfully welcoming. Generous portions. Quick service. The buttermilk chicken Mac & Cheese was ridiculously good for something you ate and have it on the table in fast food timeframe. I only wished I had appetite left to try the Irish Cream Cheesecake. Next time.

We had an amazing date night at Diz’s! We walked around on Friday night for about 30 minutes looking for somewhere to eat that wasn’t too expensive and that didn’t have a long wait. Diz’s had no wait, and we were sat by the windows. We loved to people watch! The inside is adorable and so nicely decorated. I got the peach martini and the hot n dirty martini as well as a build your own burger. They were all soooo delicious! The burger was cooked perfectly and everything was fresh. We thought it was a great touch that the menus included local events that were going on that month. We had a great chat with our server, too. We were too full for dessert but the dessert nachos looked to die for. Prices were great! We will most definitely be back!
