Who doesn't love a local diner?!…read more I come to our town diner very often for their omelettes because they're huge. It's probably made with 3 or 4 eggs - extremely filling. For the price you can't beat it!? On this visit I tried their vegetable burrito - again very filling. You can't go wrong with the breakfast.

Stopped in on a weekday morning for breakfast. Solid diner-grade breakfast experience. Ordered the…read moreCorned Beef Hash special: Corned Beef Hash (extra crispy), hash browns, two eggs over easy and Sourdough Toast - plus coffee and water. Food came up fairly quickly. The Corned Beef Hash (canned variety) was crisped up nicely. The hash browns were also crispy, eggs were cooked properly. Coffee was standard coffee - nothing to get excited about. Service was good. Paid with Apple Pay. I'd visit here again. #OrangeDiner

We were greeted warmly and seated promptly, the hostess allowing us to choose whether or not we…read morewanted a high top table. We ate on a Saturday afternoon and it was busy but not full. We parked in the lot across the street although there is 2 hour street parking. Our server was friendly but it was a little disappointing that one of the drinks we wanted couldn't be ordered because it wasn't available (not sure why because it was just an old fashioned and we could clearly see the whiskey displayed behind the bar) so we ordered a different drink and the exotic mushroom pasta entree I ordered had a choice of being served with gnocchi or pappardelle pasta (which I preferred but again, it wasn't available so I went with the gnocchi). One of my friends got the beef sliders with mashed potatoes ($3 upcharge!!!) (they wanted the beef stroganoff but the chef wasn't able to make it without mushrooms) and my other friend the Brazilian beef stroganoff. The food was delicious. The ambiance was typical of a tavern with the TVs broadcasting the Olympics and the tall ceilings caused it to be a little noisy but not unbearable. We were too full for dessert but the carrot cake had been recommended so we ordered a piece to go (the biggest slice of cake I've ever seen!) along with a slice of their lemoncello cake. Good experience, I would've given them 5 stars had they not been out of so many things and unable to accommodate my friend's wish for no mushrooms

The location of this restaurant is central and it's ambience is enhanced by the incredible staff:…read morethe welcoming staff were warm and genuine; we were lucky enough to get Lori for our server on our first visit (we asked for her on each subsequent visit); the food was so fresh, well seasoned, expertly prepared, and the portions were generous. I'm visiting my family after a sudden, unexpected death, and I've already sent messages to friends and family recommending your wonderful restaurant. During our last visit, I asked if I could meet the Chef. My Sister and I got to meet Doc, and express our appreciation for his food freshness and the beautiful taste thanks to Lori facilitating our meeting. He encouraged us to return and profusely thanked us for the feedback. If you're in Orange; Spottsvania; Charlottesville; or heading anywhere to the North and South along the 95 corridor, please stop by the Silk Mill Grille, ask for Lori - who will make your experience enhanced by her incredible work ethic and welcoming demeanor. If Doc and his crew are in the kitchen - you are in for a treat. My Sister and I are Senior Citizens. Our trips to meals out were more frequent when we were both working full time. Now, we are very picky about where we go. We both encourage you to treat yourself and be sure to ask for Lori. PS: This facility is spotless. It's clearly a hidden gem awaiting your discovery.
