Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc., as Registrant, hereby requests acceleration of the effective date of the referenced Registration Statement, and in connection with that request we acknowledge the following:

1.

Should the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

2.

The action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
