For Business Diners

New Restaurant Partners Starting April 15, 2026

Business dining happens in cities of all sizes, from Boston’s Faneuil Hall to Albertville, Alabama, and everywhere in between. This month’s new additions to Dinova’s ever-growing network prove that the best meals don’t always come from the most obvious hubs. Whether you’re a road warrior or a homebody, these are the local gems worth seeking out—where the food is made with care, the welcome is genuine, and every visit supports the community behind the kitchen. Your myDinova points travel well, too!

912 Korean BBQ & Hotpot

Pooler, GA

Some meals are just dinner. Korean BBQ is an event! At 912 KPOT in Pooler, the all-you-can-eat format turns any team outing into a two-hour communal feast — marinated meats sizzling tableside, a raw bar stocked with seafood and grilled oysters, a sauce bar built for all levels of heat-seekers, and boba drinks alongside beer, wine, and sake. It’s the kind of interactive dining experience that no conference room can replicate.

Angelina’s

Lynbrook, NY

Angelina’s hits that sweet spot between neighborhood go-to and genuinely impressive — the kind of Italian restaurant where homemade pasta and hand-tossed pizza share the menu with filet of sole and cannoli, and the warm, family-run atmosphere feels equally right for a casual lunch or a client dinner. Lunch specials, happy hour from 2 to 6, and a private party room for up to 85 make it a reliable all-occasion destination.

Basilico Italiano

Concord, NC

Concord got a taste of New York when Long Island natives opened Basilico Italiano, transplanting their love of great garlic knots, NY-style pizza, and genuine Italian hospitality to the heart of the South. Here, the wine is flowing, and the menu rewards the adventurous as much as classic Italian food devotees. Catering featuring elevated dishes like shrimp scampi pasta and stuffed mushrooms is the kind of spread teammates actually talk about.

Baxter & Frost

Ellensburg, WA

Tucked near the entrance of Seattle’s iconic Pike Place Market, Baxter & Frost is the kind of scratch-made bakery that turns a quick coffee stop into a genuine highlight of the workday.
