Answer

I'm pretty sure it's (het) avondeten. This is the most common i've heard at least.

Answer

ook warmeten

Answer

I've heard people just refer to it as (het) eten, although that doesn't refer to a particular meal.

Kunnen we iets gaan eten? - Can we get something to eat?

Answer

Yeah, we use "diner", but it is quite formal indeed. You can say "avondeten". If we talk about having dinner we often just say "we gaan eten", it means "we're going to eat".
