Penrose is great for that, because the inside is nice and cozy, and the employees are super attentive. They were showing a few games on the tv which was cool, but I was intrigued with their menu. I'd love to try lunch here or at least one of their sandwiches. The quesadilla was great and I even ate part of it the next day for lunch. Hashbrowns were great as well, and the cheesesticks were awesome. Love trying those out at diners. The waffle, eggs and sausage was very tasty as well.

Loved my first Dungeon Crawl at Silk City in July '26. Got there a little early and stopped into…read morethe beer garden to check out the menu and see how late the kitchen was open. I planned on grabbing something to go after the show. As I was perusing the menu I saw several dishes pass by and decided I couldn't wait any longer. In particular I noted the wings and chicken fingers, both of which looked amazing. I got a table next to the bar in their lovely beer garden. Has some TVs, a very friendly staff, and the food looked great. I was blown away by their chicken fingers. Obviously hand breaded, and served with Comeback sauce and your choice of ranch or blue cheese. I ate a few and saved the biggest one for a late night snack. Ended up eating it a couple days later and it was still delicious! I'll have to try the wings next time. Service was great, from hostess to servers, everyone had smiles. Food came out promptly and my drink was refilled without asking. Definitely a good start to the night. The Dungeon Crawl itself was the highlight of the evening! This is in the lounge/bar area of Silk City. It's an intimate setup with the stage in a corner with a dance floor and the bar area and a few tables at the other end. A DJ warms things up while the main act comes on at 8:00. It was Dogs in a Pile for my first visit and I was blown away by the sound and energy. 2 sets of amazing improv and jamming, with a dedicated crowd of music lovers. I can't wait to get to my next one!

One of my friends got the breakfast sandwich called "Trenton makes - the World Takes" and I love the nod to some NJ history. Good food, nice ambiance.

I searched online to find the Silver Diner was only 12 minutes away from where we were. I also had my wife and 2 other Shih Tzus with me in the car and were planning to eat in the car since we thought it would be too much of a haul to drag them all out to dine in. They greeted me at the front as I went in by myself to check and feel the ambiance first. They encouraged me to bring the whole furry family in to dine inside with my wife. We were seated at a window booth and were waited on almost immediately. My dogs are well behaved and my wife was shocked how comfortable they were at the diner. The staff were super friendly, the food was fresh and hot. It came out within 10 minutes. Large portions and priced fairly. My wife had the Western Omelette with home fries, biscuit and caramelized onions while I had the Bacon Bleu Burger with a side of fries. Hot black coffee, Large Apple Juice & Large Orange Juice.

We wanted to get some "Philly food" and opted for a roast pork and broccoli rabe sandwich with a not so "Philly" staple, a gyro. The roast pork was a little dry, but the flavors were good. I've never had this sandwich before but it reminded me a French dip, which I love! The gyro was also very good! Large portion and great flavors, especially the tzatziki sauce! Service was a little slow, but they were busy. The restaurant was clean, but definitely an older establishment. Overall a great experience!

It has both indoor and outdoor seatings. The visit occurred on a Saturday morning and the place was packed inside and out. We were seated right away and hot coffee arrived quickly along with the menu. The servers were friendly and food also arrived quickly. I can't believe how much food was on the plate!!! Just with the potatoes and omelette alone was a ginormous portion. It also came with toast of my choice. I got the Spanish omelette without mushrooms. Don't judge me for eating my eggs with ketchup, please! I liked how the eggs tasted but not so much for the potatoes. I found them too greasy. I also wish my basket of jellies came with more marmalade!! Still, the food and the service turnaround time was phenomenal given the volume of diners in the restaurant. If I'm back in the area again, I would love to try out their pancakes and waffles. The ones eaten by other diners looked delicious!

Inside, the food was fresh, plentiful, and delicious. We chose side salads instead of fries and they were a great size to start the meal. I had the open‑face Turkey Reuben and the portion was definitely shareable and very good. My husband had the fish and chips and the cod was fried perfectly, 4 nice fillets, crisp outside and tender inside. He swapped the fries for a baked potato and it tasted like it came straight from the oven, hot and fluffy. They offered a long list of specials for 16.99 that included beverage, soup, salad, an entrée and dessert. The cakes and pies looked fabulous and many were ordering dessert. We were too full this time, but next visit we'll save room. Our waitress, Lala, was wonderfu, attentive, friendly and always checking in at the right moments. The manager greeted us warmly when we arrived and again when we left, which added to the friendly atmosphere. Plenty of parking and easy to get in and out. We would definitely recommend this diner and would happily return.

The meat was moist, tasty, properly salted, with a discernible bark. The amount of cheese, sauerkraut, & dressing accentuated the pastrami, although so much meat would be hard to impact! It needed the long spear to stay together. But yet I could cut & shave & make mini sandwiches. The potato salad was a great refresher. Not too tart, with carrots, celery, & I could taste onion. The pickle was not too acidic. Great crunch. A nice interlude between bites of the sandwich & potato salad. I took my time. It went into overtime. Washing it down with coke. My taste buds won. Great service. A nice diner like vibe. Incredible menu. We don't have this level of Jewish Deli in the Bay Area. I'd go every week. $36.18 is with it!

The latke was okay but it had way too much sauce for my liking (kewpie mayo and unagi sauce). The carrots and tomatoes were fresh and delicious, though the portions were small. The French fries were nice to order and pair with the NY strip and General Tso-Wich sandwich. For mains, the grilled branzino was delicious (though the portion was small), the NY strip was a bit chewy, and the General Tso-Wich had good flavor. For dessert, they put a sparkler since it was my birthday but I wish they offered a complimentary birthday dessert. Both the sponge cake and Olivia's pancake à la mode were too sweet for my taste. When we left, the hostess didn't greet or acknowledge us so I didn't think they were friendly or welcoming. Unfortunately, I don't think I would come here again to celebrate special occasions.
