    We’re visiting Laurel from out of state and always make a point to support locally owned restaurants when we travel. PDI did not disappoint! My husband had the grilled chicken sandwich with homemade onion rings, and I had a burger and fries. Everything was cooked to order, fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The homemade onion rings were especially outstanding! And the portions were huge…neither of us could eat all of it. The service was friendly and welcoming, the prices were very reasonable, and the overall experience was excellent. We’ll definitely be back! If you’re looking for great food, great service, and a local place worth supporting, we highly recommend PDI!

    We loved this little place! Just like burger joints/drive-ins used to be. Burgers were excellent, along with onion rings, tator tots, and malt. My husband was so hungry I didn't get a picture of his food before he took a bite. Prices were good, and even though it was close to 100° we sat on the picnic tables under the covered area with fans. We will eat here again if we are ever in the area!!!

    Great food! I come here yo get my cholesterol level back up because I live in a state that serves tiny food at very high prices! Great everything but the burgers, onion rings and shakes are to die for.

    Showed up just before closing and food was good, service was friendly and we enjoyed our time eating on the porch. Cheeseburger and BLT were as ordered and the fries and tots hot. I love a good malt and the chocolate malt they served up was rich and thick with a great malt flavor. If you haven’t already, give this place a shot. You won’t be disappointed.
