                 QDI, LLC URGES QUALITY DINING NOT TO FRUSTRATE
                        SHAREHOLDERS' DECISION ON TENDER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Southfield, MI, May 22, 2000 - NBO, LLC, today announced that it sent a letter
to the Board of Directors of Quality Dining, Inc. (Nasdaq: QDIN) urging that it
take the steps necessary to allow shareholders to truly decide for themselves
whether to accept or reject the offer of QDI Acquisition LLC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of NBO, to acquire all Quality Dining shares at $5.00 per share.

Quality Dining is expected to announce its recommendation, if any, on the tender
today. The letter requested the board to agree that, regardless of its
recommendation, if shareholders tender a number of shares which, together with
the shares owned by NBO, represent a majority of all outstanding shares on a
fully diluted basis, Quality Dining will fully cooperate with NBO and take such
steps as are necessary to satisfy all conditions to the offer that are within
the company's control. The letter states, "In this way, Quality Dining
shareholders, with both our offer and your recommendation in hand, can decide
whether to tender their shares with the assurance that the company will not
frustrate the decision of the holders of a majority of its shares."

A copy of the letter is attached.

QDI Acquisition's tender offer is scheduled to expire at midnight, New York City
time, on June 5, 2000, unless the offer is extended.

The tender offer is conditioned upon, among other things: (a) there being
validly tendered and not withdrawn before the expiration of the Offer shares of
common stock of Quality Dining that, when added to the shares owned by QDI
Acquisition and NBO, would represent at least a majority of the outstanding
shares of Quality Dining on a fully diluted basis on the date of the purchase;
(b) that Quality Dining's Board of Directors redeem the Rights or make them
inapplicable to QDI Acquisition's offer; (c) that the Quality Dining Board
approve the acquisition of shares by QDI Acquisition in the offer, or that QDI
Acquisition is otherwise satisfied that the proposed merger can occur under
Chapter 43 of the Indiana Business Corporation Law, as soon as practicable
following consummation of the offer; (d) that the Quality Dining Board approve
an amendment to Quality Dining's By-laws or otherwise ensure that QDI
Acquisition will be able to vote its shares acquired in the offer without
restriction or limitation under Chapter 42 of the Indiana BCL; (e) that QDI
Acquisition, in its sole discretion, is satisfied that the proposed merger can
be consummated without a supermajority vote of Quality Dining's shareholders
pursuant to Article VIII of Quality Dining's Restated Articles of Incorporation;
(f) that the Quality Dining Board agree to cause a majority of the Board of

<PAGE>
Directors to be comprised of representatives of QDI Acquisition and/or NBO
immediately following consummation of the offer; and (g) that QDI Acquisition,
in its sole discretion, is satisfied that Quality Dining will not be in default
under any of its outstanding indebtedness upon consummation of the Offer and the
proposed merger.

Mackenzie Partners, Inc. is the Information Agent for the offer.

Board of Directors
Quality Dining, Inc.
4220 Edison Lakes Parkway
Mishawaka, Indiana  46545

Dear Directors:

                     It is my understanding that, as required by law, Quality
Dining will today be announcing whether the Board recommends acceptance or
rejection of (or takes no position on) NBO's offer to purchase all Quality
Dining shares at $5.00 per share. We believe shareholders should have the
benefit of your recommendation in considering this matter. Regardless of your
recommendation, however, we urge you to take the steps necessary to allow
shareholders to truly decide for themselves whether to accept or reject our
offer.

                     More specifically, we are requesting you to agree that, if
shareholders tender a number of shares which, together with our shares,
represent a majority of all outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis, Quality
Dining will fully cooperate with NBO and take such steps as are necessary to
satisfy all conditions to our offer that are within the company's control. In
this way, Quality Dining shareholders, with both our offer and your
recommendation in hand, can decide whether to tender their shares with the
assurance that the company will not frustrate the decision of the holders of a
majority of its shares.

                                                Very truly yours,

                                                /s/ David W. Schostak
