Giving this place 5 Stars EVEN THOUGH we sat for about 20 minutes waiting for them to bring us our food, and had to ask us three different times what we ordered and who's name it was under but... that said, the boy who finally brought us our food was extremely apologetic. Smart move on their part by sending the most adorable teenage boy with perfect puppy dog eyes to humbly hand us our bag as he kept saying how sorry he was. Who could be mad at him? Not me. We had ordered on their app as we were passing through the area and they were very busy so I get how a mix up could occur. The 5 stars happened because even though we sat for 20 minutes, our food did not. It was hot and it was fresh. Other places could take note of this and maybe step up their game a bit or A LOT.... I'm not saying any names but their initials being with Whataburger... Anyway, I digress. We both got the same thing. The double burger with chili, slaw, mustard, onions, and pickles. While not necessarily the best choice for a road trip lunch driving down the interstate, it's hard to be salty about something so delicious. Messy? Yes. But it was a glorious mess!! You gotta love a place that not only allows you to completely customize your food, but allows it for relatively no extra charge except on the big ticket items like bacon or extra cheese. And they don't skimp either... which again made for a messy drive but well worth the laundry I had to do as soon as our 7 hour drive was over. The two patties were perfectly done, the buns were fresh and they were very, very liberal with the included toppings. This thing was stacked with a wonderful, meaty chili, cool, crisp slaw, crunchy pickles, and rounded out with fresh onions that added a terrific contrast to the chili and slaw. And the toppings were spread through out the sandwich so that every bite delivered on flavor. They were also generous with the napkins, which is rare these days and very, very much appreciated. The fries were good although I'm not a big fan of the crinkle variety... that said, I do appreciate that you have the option in the app to get them extra crispy. That made for a much better experience. Though they're not my favorite type of fries, these were well cooked, soft on the inside without being mealy like most crinkles are; while having a nice crispy exterior. If I have to have crinkle cut fries, I'd prefer Dairi-O's. I also tried their tzatziki sauce because I love that as a dipping sauce for fries and it was pretty spot on. At first, when I saw it on the menu, my thought was, "what does a burger joint really know about tzatziki sauce?" Turns out, a lot. It was creamy, tangy, with just the right amount of fresh cucumber and dill. Over all, as far as I'm concerned, it's a solid fast food choice that feels less like fast food and more like eating a perfect burger from your backyard grill. We both enjoyed it very much and will be back. read more

Dairi-O - Extra crispy fries - Burgers Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

See all

Stopped by Dairi-O in Archdale after disc golfing at Creekside Park and it definitely hit the spot. I ordered the double burger and, as someone who always asks for extra pickles, I have to give them credit -- they actually delivered. So many places throw on one or two extra and call it a day, but this was a legit pickle situation. The crinkle-cut fries were seasoned and really good, the milkshake was decent, and the burger was solid overall. Nothing fancy, just classic fast-food comfort done well. For two double combos and a chocolate shake, it was $29 and some change, which felt pretty reasonable. I'd definitely grab it again if I'm in that area. Perfect post-disc golf fuel. read more

This place reminds me of Chick-fil-A back in the late '90s and early 2000s--when customer service and the overall experience really stood out. They were fully staffed, the food came out fast, and everything tasted great. The fries weren't my favorite (crinkle-cut), but everything else hit. The vibe was really good--busy, but the line moved quickly. I can definitely see Dairi-O gaining popularity across North Carolina. read more

Dairi-O - Hot Dig with Chili - Burgers Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

If you are looking for a great hot dog, Dairi-o is a solid choice. This company, which has been in operation for 78 years now, has seen its menu gradually expand to included a variety of sandwiches, salads, soup options, and wraps. But the heart of this restaurant chain remains where it began - hot dogs, burgers, and milk shakes. The hot dog remains a clear winner in this area - and there are some very good hot dog houses in the triad, stretching all the way to Burlington to include Zack's! I ordered the Hot Dog Combo, which in retrospect was a mistake - the FF are as plentiful as they are awful - overcooked strands of non-flavor. I got a dog with mustard, chili, and onions and a dog with mustard and sauerkraut. These were, as usual, good hot dogs. This was a nice experience. This is a nice location, with a get in and out that is nice. read more

Went for a late night snack and got a hand-scooped sundae. I always get their chocolate peanut butter ice cream and it's TO DIE FOR!! The restaurant is always clean and tidy, and the workers are always kind and helpful. Any food you get will probably be good, but definitely get the ranch, which is also fantastic! read more

Dairi-O - Hand scooped sundae with chocolate peanut butter ice cream, sugar wafers, whipped cream, hot fudge, and a cherry! - Burgers Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

It's National hot dog Day! Wouldn't be right if I didn't re-affirm my review for my absolutely favorite hot dog in the Triad, and now beyond, because Dairi-O is spreading out to farther corners of NC. This is it. This is my favorite hot dog for so many reasons. Buttered and grilled bun, first and foremost, one of the few ways a place can set itself apart, by doing this simply step to the bread and by using a high quality frank. DairiO does both. Quality toppings, both the chili and cole slaw at DairiO are in my top 5, if not the absolute best. The coleslaw is finely minced and not heavy on mayo, just enough sweet and spice to it. The chili is mild, no beans, and creates that additional body to your meaty taco. Love that I can get jalapenos here, truly underrated as a hot dog topping. Then the bonus is that you can still get a pair of them, a big order of fries (always hot and fresh), and a glass of your favorite beverage for 10 bucks. That's absolutely what I'm looking for, and makes Dairi-O a primo hot dog experience. Congrats DairiO, for being my absolutely favorite hot dog in the Triad. read more

Very solid choice in fast food. They have a pretty wide range of food, including your typical fast food choices, healthier options like salads, several soups, and even vegetarian options like a black bean burger. I've tried a lot of things here, and have no complaints across the board. My old usual order was the Chicken Souvlaki. It's one of those things that taste more "real" than fast food normally does. Fresh, hearty, involves vegetables. I've also gotten a grilled cheese and tomato soup several times when I want something different. Lately, I've been in a burger mood. The burgers are perfect: not too greasy, but not dry. Buns toasted. A good variety of toppings to choose from. The fries are crispy and well seasoned. I dip them in ranch, which is also very good here -- it has that homemade taste and texture. They have a big dessert menu, and serve anything you'd get in an ice cream shop: floats, sundaes, shakes, banana splits, dipped cones, etc. They serve both hand scooped and soft serve ice cream, and I have never tried one I didn't like. One time, someone was picking up food and accidentally ordered me a banana pudding milkshake instead of the banana split I asked for, and even that was delicious. I thought it sounded disgusting and was mad about the mixup, but I ended up drinking the whole thing. The inside of the restaurant is spacious and clean. In short, Dairi-O coming to Archdale is one of the best things to happen here. Definitely on the pricier end of fast food, but well worth it. read more

This is my fourth time eating at Dairi-O and they NEVER disappoint! The food is high quality and fresh every time. The fish sandwich is my absolute favorite. It takes a little longer than everything else as it is made fresh to order, but it's worth it every time. I do suggest adding condiments such as tartar sauce, cheese, etc. The vibe is friendly and welcoming, like a small town diner with a modern twist. Everyone is friendly and helpful if you have any questions about menu items. Will definitely come back again! read more

Nice open space, tall windows, clean, contemporary, industrial decor palette. Not familiar with Dario's so pleasantly surprised with the food options. Burger was great very lil grease, wish they had more cheese options. Pricing is affordable. $10-$20 As busy as they were the service was pleasant and quick. Not sure if all Dario's have the same quality but would drive here again. read more

Dairi-O First time visit to the restaurant. I was impressed. It's a fast food restaurant, but it seems to be of higher quality than most other chains. I played it safe and ordered a Monster Burger, a strawberry shake and onion rings. My wife had the Apple Crisp Chicken Salad. The burger was very good. The meat had a light texture to it, it seems like it was not overly compressed or handled before putting the patty on the grill. The flavor was good, no special seasonings I could tell, but that's how I like my burgers, lightly seasoned. It made the beef flavor stand out more. Very juicy, but not greasy. The veggies were plentiful and the lettuce was dark green (yes, I had to mention that as most similar restaurants do not have that...just a nice touch). Unfortunately for me, the lettuce started to wilt before I could begin eating it (takeout order). Everything on the burger was very good and high quality including the sesame seed bun. The onion rings are definitely recommended. Large thick slices of onions fried well and not greasy. Just some salt on them and that was enough for me. The strawberry shake was very good. You can see the strawberry pieces (lots of them) in the shake, so the flavor was very pronounced, which was a good thing. They also give you a good amount of food (and quality food) for your money. For the salad, it was large too, with nice sized chunks of apples, chicken and other veggies. My wife mentioned the vinaigrette dressing was nice complement. The inside of the restaurant was very clean and well lit. The staff were very personable and smiled when I arrived and when I received my order. They were also very accommodating in answering my questions, as this was my first time at that chain. I would definitely go there again if I'm in the area. Unfortunately, there are none near where I live...for now at least. read more

I have visited this location a few times now and each time the place is clean, the staff friendly, and the speed of service reasonable. The place can get a noisy when there are even a few people there and there are televisions hanging at various locations for viewing. Never had a mistake on any of my orders (yet), prices are reasonable, and taste was excellent. I like how all the condiments are easily accessible and ketchup dispenser worked. Overall, it is great and I typically visit the location when passing through the area. read more

As a fast food stop, Dairi-O is great and the whole family can usually agree to stopping at Dairi-O. The food is a touch above normal fast food in quality, they don't skimp on portions, and the kids love both the food and the ice cream. Service is always super friendly and helpful. They have plenty of room inside for finding a seat which is nice because they can often be pretty busy. Normally they handle a large line quickly though. read more

the friesssssss with the ranchhhhhh incredible!!!!! get the fries and the ranch and maybe a milkshake read more

Dairi-O's food is always great and the place was super clean. My main complaint was the large soft serve was much smaller than the other locations do. I specifically stop at Dairi-O all the time for the purpose of soft serve and would love if the large size got bigger to compare to other locations. I was also disappointed with the amount of sprinkles because he really only put it on one side. Service was a little bit rude and not friendly but it wasn't anything terrible. Just a bit disappointed compared to other Dairi-Os. read more

Dairi-O - Menu - 2025 - Burgers Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

Big fan of the vegan black bean burger with fries...always order 2 for myself when I'm in town. This place is a well run establishment with excellent staff, cleanliness, and consistency. 23 years in the restaurant industry - I notice everything. read more

Fairly busy place, wide open space with a contemporary industrial design with the theme colors of Red, Green, gray, and brown. The observed immediate customer base is on the older side, think early 60s. If you like the idea of stadium food, but don't like stadium quality and prices, then definitely give this place a try. Its got the basics of Burgers and Hotdogs, as well as its derivatives such as fish sandwiches, BBQ sandwiches, and chicken sandwiches. If you have a more greener palette, they offer salad options as well. For alternative tastes, Chicken wraps, and a Gyro wraps are also an option. The Mediterranean options are decent quality to where I will order again. There are also three different soup options. If you're craving grilled cheese and tomato soup. The part this place is known for : Its the ice cream. There are 27 flavors that I've counted and a wide variety of ways to prepare it. I went for the strawberry cheesecake. General experience: its in the same conventional layout and ordering system akin to ordering at McDonald (ordering up front part, not the kiosk) Price range is about $10-$20, so its a fairly affordable place to eat out. Orders are completed in about 5-7 minutes. read more

I get the talk about Dairi-O now. The burgers are nice and fresh and pretty legit. Just the look of it, you can tell it's a high quality fast food burger. Seasoned well, perfect toasted bun and all of the toppings were correct. Fries were good too, wish they were seasoned more. Menu is quite extensive and I hope their hot dogs are equal quality of their burgers. This Archdale menu has double lanes which makes things quicker than it should (I'm sure they get very busy). Will be back to try more items. read more

The young adults were polite and did their jobs well. read more

Absolutely loved this place! My first time there and it was so delish! I got the two hot dog combo all the way. So yummy. And got a cone of the campfire s'mores ice cream, it was amazing.

As far as fast food restaurants go, Dairi-o is amazing! The food is the freshest you're going to get at a fast food place. It even smells fresh inside the restaurant!

Dairi-O - Burgers Near Me - Archdale, North Carolina

I was disappointed the chuckwagon burger no longer appears on the menu, so I opted for the fish sandwich. The fish fillet was crispy and fillet extended slightly off the sides of the bun. I opted for lettuce and tartar. Husband opted for chili dogs, kids chose hamburger & corn dog. Fries were crisp and come seasoned (heads up to those who don't like seasoned fries). For some reason flies love this place--a little off putting but doesn't deter from dining experience--plan on swatting them away or killing them. Remember to save room for dessert--offerings include: soft serve, hand dipped, sundaes, shakes, floats, and flurries. If you're looking for a change from the usual suspects, definitely give Dairi-o a try read more

they have so many workers for NOTHING. they never get our orders right, they just want our money. I sent someone to pickup my order. I ordered 3 combos and asked for fries. When I received my order there were NO fries in the bag. I ask for ranch and honey mustard and they give only 2 sauces for 3 meals, when I should've received 6 sauces in total. This place USED to be managed very well. Now they're just hiring ANYONE who aren't even qualified with good customer service or skill. read more

2visits to the drive thru in the last 2 weeks. Both orders were wrong !! Get home to having the WRONG salad .. This is an item from your menu and u can't get it right.

I don't hv another 30 minutes to drive back there , so now I'm out 12 $ and eating toast read more

extremely disrespectful to their own fucking workers expecting trainees to know shit on first day, and the workers are snakes and talk shit about their customers so if you've been there before you probably got shit talked behind your back.

I passed by this place a few times, poking fun at it for being a "fake Dairy Queen." Little did I know this is what Dairy Queen aspires to be. The food is fresh, and the ice cream is top tier. I got a burger and it was perfect. It was a fresh patty, cooked perfectly, and seasoned well. Staff was nice, and the restaurant was extremely clean. It had a subtle Christian ambiance, set by the music in the background (but it was not over the top or bothersome). The ice cream choices were plentiful. A friend of mine literally begged the staff to give him a soft serve cone and roll it in sprinkles and they did. I highly recommend this place! read more
