We got coffee for my husband myself and orange juice for my grandson, then sat there for about 20 minutes as other people got their order taken, and well what can you say? After she sat down our drinks, we requested a booster seat for the grandson. She said let me go get one and never came back a bit 10 minutes we see her come from the back and start packing up a to go order, maybe if the earbud was taken out of our ear we might've been able to concentrate on our job...

I wish the remodeled it or something to make this place popping. I will for sure be back buttttt not a place persay I am craving to go back to. But the service was great.

I received a warm welcome and was offered two options for my dining (bar or table). Hot tasty coffee was on the table promptly; it's neat you get a pitcher of it at your table! My waitress, Catalina, was knowledgeable about best choices for me as I have Celiac disease (no gluten). Before I could drink half a cup of coffee, my meal was delivered! They served the tasty Monterey Club on fair tasting whole grain g-f toast. It was PACKED with turkey, bacon and avocado along with the cheese and veggies. I admit I was hungry and had to force myself to slow down. That last spoonful of soup was the icing on my 'cake.' The check came-no extra charge for g-f bread. Now I can take it to the register when I'm ready. My first trip here was WAY back when they opened and it took a bit to get seated and so forth. I plan to get back sooner!

Friendly hosts greeted us and find us a seat on a late Sunday afternoon. Nice day gave us the option of courtyard seating or indoor cottage seating. Pleasant service team, great food and a wonderful cottage atmosphere makes this place a great place to stop for brunch. Korean BBQ Short Rib sandwich is a newer menu item. Flavorful, lots of rib meat filling and bread grilled nice and crunchy. It's delicious. Berry Almond French Toast is very good. If you have a sweet tooth for brunch, then do not miss this dish. Steak & cheese melt is a staple on this menu. Filled with nicely seasoned steak, grilled onions and a blend of cheese makes this dish a hearty brunch meal. From the host to the service team, everyone is very efficient and friendly. Pro Tip: use the Yelp waitlist feature on busy days.

Even though it was pretty busy, we were seated immediately, and I was especially grateful to be seated in a quieter corner where the tables were more to the side instead of directly behind us. It was a stressful moment because my autistic son was having a really hard time and was clearly overwhelmed. Our server was wonderful, but the manager, Joy, was truly an angel sent at the perfect time. Not only did she remember our family from a previous visit, but after we explained that our son is autistic and was struggling in the moment, she immediately went to the back and returned with markers, paper, gemstone stickers, a timer, and more -- almost like she was fully prepared for children with sensory needs. I honestly can't express how much that meant to us. Her timing couldn't have been better, and we will forever be grateful for her kindness and compassion. On top of that, when my food came out, my steak wasn't cooked the way I requested. I honestly wasn't even planning to say anything, but Joy noticed I wasn't eating it and asked how I had ordered it cooked. When I explained, she kindly offered to remove it from the check. Managers like Joy are rare and so deeply appreciated. The food was great, but truthfully, Joy is what made this experience unforgettable. You can tell she's not only an amazing manager, but also a genuinely good person with a caring heart. Thank you, Joy, for making such a lasting impression on our family. Silver Diner is lucky to have you!

Ok, we are regulars here! The food and service is just fantastic!…read more We continue to find seating at the counter the quickest way to be seated if they are busy. Case in point... Mother's Day was super crowded but we were able to quickly get seats at the counter. Plus at the counter there are several servers walking by that will help if you need anything. Big kudos to Theresa and Sarah who are always attentive and super friendly. Our favorites have been the Western omelette with pepper jack cheese. The fresh ingredients, including onions and bell peppers are just delicious. Definitely get the biscuit and home fries. We think the biscuits are made at the diner. The crab melt is another favorite. It's well balanced with the filling and crab. You will not go wrong with this dish.

The location by itself is green, serene, and beautiful i.e. a nice backdrop for photos. The music selection and the food was very befitting to the theme of the event. My friend had the jerk wings which were absolutely delicious (I should have definitely gotten these). I got the mango habenera wings and another flavor, which wasn't as tasty. The sauce, by itself, for each flavor was fairly good, however, beyond the sauce of the wings (the meat), needed a little bit more marinating/seasoning for the wings to be a complete hit, in my opinion. As it pertained to service, our waiter was very delayed. Often times, we had to get another waiter to get her, which was a tad annoying.

She didn't come back until 15 minutes after in which she finally took our order. Ordered grilled salmon and jalopeno burger with chocolate chip pancakes. We received regular pancakes (no chocolate chip), with chocolate syrup. We tried giving waitress benefit if the doubt thinking maybe she misheard us. Once we got the food, the salmon wasn't grilled. It was fried and overcooked; burnt actually. Garlic bread was also burnt. Paid $17.99 for a burnt piece of salmon which was embarrassing. Afterwards, we tried to get our waitress attention to ask for the check. That itself took about 5-7 mins due to her prepping other tables while having a personal convo with her coworker. I personally don't mind the side convos, but at least pay attention to your customers since you're in the hospitality business. Due to lack of customer service skills and lack of food quality, 1 star review. Customer service is a huge area of opportunity. Will be informing management about that and food quality as both caused a negative experience. Ambiance itself wasn't enough to save this experience (and their ambiance was the only best thing about this visit...)
