Dillon’s vision and dedication to culinary excellence have positioned The Boiler Seafood Atlanta as a sought-after dining destination in the city. His commitment to using fresh ingredients and creating memorable dining experiences has garnered him recognition in the local culinary scene.

Dillon was also celebrated for his philanthropy. He appeared on Good Day Atlanta on Aug. 26, 2022, to discuss his initiative to assist convicted felons in reintegrating into society and enabling them to start their own businesses.

Dillon said he found his restaurant he was being denied franchisee opportunities with The Juicy Crab. The restaurant has attracted celebrities such as Allen Iverson, Offset, Queen Najia, Ja Rule, and other notable Atlantans.
