    Always love coming to this place. The new pasta special was great to split between two people. Amazing staff and service!

    The location is very new with a large parking lot, but getting in and out of it can be a little confusing. It's not entirely two-way. Leaving takes you through a slightly confusing one way loop. Nevertheless, twas the evening before the blizzard of 2026, and the restaurant was mostly empty. I started with the Chunky Monkey Banana milkshake which was.. well, disappointing. Almost entirely liquidity. Not enough solids. Way too much milk. Disappointed I also had a blood orange sunset, which was good, refreshing, sort of like a reverse Tequila Sunset. The meatloaf itself was good but the pate was hit or miss. There wasn't much meat loaf, mostly mashed potatoes, string onions, and corn. I felt for the price the meatloaf serving size was just not quite enough. It seemed like it was deliberately hidden in there. I was expecting something more. The Kickin Crab and Corn Chowder, sans description, was also..unexpected. It was an option with the meatloaf and contained a lot of pepper. Black pepper. Not the ... Chesapeake Favorite "Kickin" expectation.. We had a mimosa, good, a little weak. Overall, it's an ok place to grab a meal, the menu has many options, they have milkshakes and martinis of sorts, not a full bar, unfortunately, you can't get milkshakes with alcohol, which I think is a tremendous hole in their menu, but I found everything to just be a little rough around the edges. Leaving.. What sealed the deal was that after all that, instead of staying to have drinks, etc. we.. decided to go to a different restaurant for something more.

    Silver Diner is a family favorite. We stopped in after my daughter's track meet and our server must have been a bit busy because the bartender took our whole order when he original came for drinks. I don't believes he gave his name but he had curly hair and glasses. This was probably one of the best service received during my visit to Silver Diner. We tried the new smoky bacon with my tried and true French toast. I love the touch of added strawberries. Needless to say, my plate was CLEAN. So good I almost want to come back for dinner.

    Always a good time at the Silver Diner! We've ordered takeout from here several times and they never disappoint with the amount of attention to detail. Food is always delicious and fresh, and service is always friendly. Love that they're always having some kind of community event as well!

    This is a newer silver diner. Plenty of parking. You get sat immediately and the staff is quick and friendly. Our waiter was able to accommodate all of our requests. Our food came out exactly as requested.

    Patty Melt Chicken

    Walked in around 11 for brunch and the place was quite busy, but luckily got seated right away without any wait. The menu was handed over quickly, and the waiter came by fast to take my order. went with the chicken melt (with some customization) and the lamb shakshuka. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The shakshuka had really good flavor and was served with soft naan, which paired perfectly. The chicken melt came on rye bread and was extra crispy -- a nice touch. Overall, tasty food with quick service despite the rush.

    This was our second visit and we had are same server Nicole again!!! As usual she was amazing despite the businessness of Easter Sunday. We still recieved great service. I loved the maple chicken sausage. Can't wait for my next visit.

    Olivia, our server, was very welcoming and friendly to us. She was very kind to my boys with autism, and she was an attentive server, refilling drinks without asking, and coming by to check on us after the food was brought out. We chatted a bit and learned she drives from Burke to this South Riding location, and this isn't even her FT job. I told her how the restaurant sits on the very spot where my old employer and office used to be (M.C. Dean)! We always have a great experience here; even though it's not the closest one to our house, it's worth the drive. Plus, a full bar is a nice bonus too! Thank you, Olivia, for your personable service!

    So glad a Silver Diner opened up closer to home! Plenty of parking is available. Upon entering, the hostess was very kind and we were seated in a timely manner. The restaurant is clean and organized. Restrooms in the back are also clean. Our server was kind and helpful. We enjoyed our meal, each dish was flavorful and well seasoned. Nothing was overly salty or too greasy. Portions are generous as well. Silver Diner is nostalgic for me, reminds me of my High School days. Their menu has definitely changed but I enjoyed what they offered back then and now. The best part of visits to Silver Diner, has always been the company and good conversations. Can't wait to come again :D

There were two waitresses working and it was 3PM on a Saturday, so they weren't very busy. I just sat there waiting for someone to stop by and provide a menu. I've been here two times before and there were no issues with service, but it always gave weird MAGA vibes to me. Maybe it was the wall decor or the patrons that were there at the time. It just didn't seem like a place that was very friendly to non-White patrons. It was like they were telling me that I wasn't welcome without verbalizing it. I got the message though and I won't be back. I used to live in South Riding for six years before moving. I visited the South Riding Inn only once and it was late night at the bar. I remember the bartender was great. The food was also good. But, that was years ago.

We ordered and got our apps within 15 minutes....not bad since it was just onion rings and cheese curds. For our entrees we just ordered a patty melt and a chicken wrap. It took an HOUR after we ordered to get those 2 items Unfortunately, 2 times of bad service with us and we won't ever return. It's too bad because the food is actually good, there's just no kitchen management

    Our group of eight enjoyed a wonderful "chef's table" dinner at The Grille last Saturday. This is…read morea golf club diner that has been recently renovated, so the atmosphere is a cafe with hightop tables and television screens, adjacent to the pro shop. The table had been set with crisp white tablecloths and centerpieces, the first indication that this was going to be a special event, and as our evening progressed, we were not disappointed! Pete Maxwell served us several courses that began with the best tomato basil bisque I've ever had, prepared with locally-sourced heirloom tomatoes. Then came ahi tuna on microgreens served with a horseradish-based cream sauce. It was served family style, with Pete accommodating some of our group's request for more well-done portions. An heirloom tomato and burrata salad was fresh and delicious. I don't typically choose lamb, but the entree of a lamb ribeye and a little lamb lollipop in a bed of autumn squash puree, served with roasted heirloom carrots (strip steak for the non-lamb eaters) had both a beautiful presentation and just the right seasoning and I was pleasantly surprised. A miniature, warm pumpkin muffin was served before a unique dessert of vanilla ice cream served inside a roasted squash bowl. We brought and enjoyed our own wines, including a wine that paired well with the desserts. This is not the type of dinner we would have expected to be offered at The Grille, but every person raved about the experience and we look forward to doing it again soon.
