About the Business

Specialties

Richie's Diner is pleasin' people with good country cookin'! Servin' up country breakfasts, classic burgers and sandwiches enjoyed for lunch and dinner, plus Richie's premium wood-smoked steaks grilled to perfection on an authentic outdoor BBQ with all the fixins' are just the beginning of Richie's tasty menu offerings. Old-fashioned shakes, malts, and Linda's luscious made-from-scratch desserts will bring back memories of good food as it used to be. Founded in 1991 by Jack & Linda Williams, Richie' Diner has recreated the good ol' dinner feel and food where folks love to meet for great flavors and fun. Of course, Richie's home-style meals like Grilled Buttermilk Chicken and Ozark Glazed Ham are always big favorites! Jack's Texas upbringing and Linda's Alabama roots are the perfect marriage for delicious country cookin' for all occasions.

History

Established in 1991.

It was over a half century ago when founders Jack and Linda Williams got hitched and began their lifetime dedication to the food industry. Along the way, they helped develop the concept for a well-known steakhouse chain and built 38 restaurants in two decades, becoming their largest and most successful franchisee. Growing up among local ranches and farms of West Texas and New Mexico, Jack's standards were set high with the freshest, highest quality meats and produce. And the backyard BBQ was not just a grill, it was a school - where Jack perfected the wood-smoked flavors that are now a signature of the Richie's menu. Alabama-raised Linda was brimmin' with recipes for homestyle meals and desserts, and longed to serve 'em up with that famous Southern hospitality. Together, they dreamed up the "Real American Diner" concept: old-fashioned country cookin', using only the best ingredients, served by a friendly, courteous staff devoted to "pleasin' people." The dream became reality in 1991.

Business Owner

In 1991, the first Richie's Diner was established in Temecula, California. The restaurant became a community favorite and neighboring Murrieta soon demanded a Richie's of their own. Concerned that franchising would compromise the unique quality, personality and service which gave the Diner its special appeal, Richie's Diner remains a privately held, family-run business. The tradition continued with the 2007 opening of the Victoria Gardens (Rancho Cucamonga) location by their daughter and son-in-law Sally and Gary Myers, seasoned people pleasers themselves, with 36 years of experience as restaurateurs. More locations are in the works, but expansion will be carefully planned to assure that every guest will enjoy Richie's famous old-fashioned hospitality and the freshest, highest quality breakfasts, lunches, dinners and desserts!Jack and Linda's philosophy is simple - "Pleasin' People."
