I recently had dinner here and the food was excellent. Sujata, our waitress, was really welcoming and made sure we had a great experience. Everything was just right, from the food to the service. Highly recommend it read more

This location has really gone down in quality. We used to come here often since we go to the Kaiser across the street. We recently came for breakfast in Feb 2023 and it wasn't the Silver Diner we remembered. We were seated in a corner booth and service was really slow. We had to flag down multiple servers to get silverware/water/orders placed. The omelet was flavorless and tasted as unappetizing as it looked. The waffle wasn't anything special and plain. We ordered a kid's breakfast with a sad, single scrambled egg and soggy fruit. It was hard to justify the $50 bill for this meal. We thought our last visit was a bad day for them and decided to give it another shot for dinner last night. We ordered the salmon/shrimp special, crab cake platter, and a kids mac & cheese meal. The salmon and shrimp was tasty and a good portion. The crab cake was very disappointing. There was no crabmeat, way too much filler/crust, and it was weirdly sweet like they used cornbread or some kind of cake to bind it. The kids mac & cheese was hard to mess up and we got steamed edamame as a side. Our server was attentive and came by often. We paid $95 including tip which felt way too much for less than average dinner. TDLR: the food quality/preparation is a miss, service is alright, but WAY overpriced for what you get. read more

I love this diner and I am sad that we don't have one in Miami. They have so many creative dishes and their vegetarian and vegan options are phenomenal. This time I had the grass fed braised short ribs and they were really good, very tender. They were on top of creamy mashed potatoes and broccoli rabe that was cooked crisp tender. We had the avocado toast as a starter topped with smoked salmon and the combination was delish! I will always make it a point to come here when I am in town. read more

I love the portion sizes you get at the price offered. We really enjoy eating outside but it comes at a disadvantage. Our food was lukewarm and plate cool to touch letting me know they were sitting for awhile which is why I had to give 3 stars. I love my food hot. Despite the cold food, I will say our server was great and attentive but maybe a bit overwhelmed read more

Food is alright nice service. The menu never changed in years which is bummer. Their new locations are okay read more

12/4/21 Last time we were here, we meet Chef Ype. Today we met our server Yudith A. Ms. Yudith did a wonderful job. I can see her becoming a manager soon. The dinner is back to its former glory. Guests are coming and guests are going. The turn around and cleaning of the tables looked good. Please don't forget to wipe the seats. My table had crumbs on the seats. Ladies bathroom was maintained as busy as it was...at least this what I was told by my wife. The men's bathroom was busy. I think a piss floor mat would be appreciated to avoid the misfires and golden bomb drops on the floor. I appreciate the service of Yudith and wonderful smile. She check in on use periodically to make sure everything was fine or if we needed something. Something we did not get at the last Denny's we visited. Like I mentioned earlier, Chef Ype wasn't here this time, but his cardboard cut out was. He may not be American football fan, but he was a Baltimore Ravens's fan when we met. Another great experience at this location. read more

Party of 5. Everyone enjoyed their meal. My husband I were happy to find Calves Liver on the menu. It came with good sized salad and was accompanied by bacon, onions, green veggies, corn, mashed potatoes and gravy. A great meal for $20. Plenty left for lunch the next day. read more

Stopped in for a bite before our visit to Costco. All and all pretty clean spot. Our waitress was kind and quick with service. I ordered the Chicken and Waffles and they were ok. Felt more like oversized chicken tenders vs a chicken breast. Still good, pecan waffles were a bit too chunky though imo. The Huevos Rancheros my wife ordered was delicious. My wife's mother ordered the Philly Steak Omelette. She said it was good but too much steak for her. Milkshake was great and I love how they give you extra. Good time for quick bite. read more

The food was delicious, and they even customized my husband's chicken picata. The service was outstanding. Our waitress was quick, kind, and very helpful. Thank you, Marlen, for the wonderful service you provided for me and my family. We will definitely be back!! The Nutella banana shake was to die for!! read more

Went there for dinner on 9/14 place was not busy we ordered Cobb Salad, Shrimp and Watermelon salad. , Turkey Sandwich and a burger. service was extremely slow the salads had lettuce which had turned brow, the turkey sandwich had one slice of turkey and the burger and fries came out cold. they remade the burger and fries and the manager apologized for the cold food one of the worst dining experiences ever read more

I haven't been to Silver Diner in forever. It's changed, in so many good ways! I'm loving their menu. The hostess was friendly and our server was awesome. She was so sweet, attentive, and helpful. Had to start out with some cheese fries. Love that they let us order this during breakfast time. The cheese fries are perfect for sharing. We enjoyed our avocado and bruschetta toasts. It was well made and quality ingredients are used. Ended with their churro doughnuts, which were dangerously good. Slightly crisp and fluffy cinnamon sugar doughnuts with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. Yum! We had a lovely meal and the conversation was even better. So glad G and I decided to meet up for breakfast here. read more

I'm a connoisseur of the diner format. This place is ten times better than Bob and Edith's. Their menu is focused on healthy eating and local ingredients. Chef Ypes does an excellent job curating the menu. My only advice would be to not overexpand and cause your quality to go down. One of my previous employers overexpanded and was not able to maintain quality; this company is now out of business. Silver Diner has been rapidly expanding lately, but so far has been able to maintain their quality. I got some lemonade ($5.49), Creekstone Farm meatballs and pappardelle (a type fo pasta, $18.99), and a chocolate shake ($8.99). The meal and service were excellent. No complaints. read more

Tonight we had the pleasure of being served by Anibal. He answered all of our menu questions & was extremely welcoming & friendly. This was our first time at this Silver Diner location but it definitely wont be our last! I loved the "Steak Frites" & you have to try the hand spun milkshake- I always get the "black&white!" Make sure you bring a quarter to choose a song in their original table jukeboxes!! We cant wait to come back! read more

If you're trying to eat plant-based, go somewhere else. My meatballs had regular meat mixed in. I'm 100% sure because we opened it up and compared. I'm not daring. I order the same thing every single time because it's usually bussin'. Besides them being overpriced, this isn't the place for dietary restrictions. Poop on them. Update* some of the meatballs were straight up rubbery meat and the rest were the beyond meat consistent. Definitely know the difference! Thank you so much for $5 off$15 on a meal that was 20. read more

Love the gluten free options and the wonderful service. We will definitely be back when we are in the area!

This is one of the nicer Silver Diners I've been to and I attribute that to the outdoor seating. They have turf in a sectioned off portion of the parking lot with gazebos and some decorative plants. Couple that with the great weather the experience was very relaxing. I ordered the oat milk protein pancakes which are made with blueberries and pistachios and they came with a side of coconut whipped cream and agave syrup. These are the best pancakes I've had in a LONG TIME. The whipped cream left something to be desired but the agave was so good. Add up the nice seating with great pancakes and an excellent server and I now have a place I'll be returning too. read more

I love Silver Diner and I'm a former server. I preface this review with that because I get it. It's not fun to get people 20 minutes before we close but this place was acting like they were already closed. They "let" us sit at the counter so we wouldn't "dirty things up". Her words. Older woman with auburn dyed hair. I get it can be annoying but if you are still open, you serve the customer. I recall many nights waiting on people to leave when waiting tables. She even served all of our orders into to go containers to shoo us out the door. It was super rude! I plan on filing a complaint with corporate. The shakes were good though. So there's that. read more

I like this location, I don't come here to this location as often as the one Springfield near my job. If I had to choose I would choose this one because of their attentive and kind staff. I went for a really late brunch on my day off and had the pleasure of having a waiter named Vincente attend me, he was friendly and prompt . Food was delicious and service was great! read more

Age old problem, where do you want to go for dinner tonight? Silver Diner? Nah that's a breakfast spot. Wait you know what it's not to far away and we can probably get seated right away. We walked in to find no wait but a busy dining room nonetheless. Wow. Someone's been modernizing this old diner. Don't worry the jukebox is still at each booth (and it works) but the menu and decor has all been freshened up and looks great. My wife, daughter and I all went for the build your own burger section of the menu. They both got beef while I went with a turkey patty. All our burgers were tasty and yummy. The differences were in the sides chosen. My wife's cooked veggies including Brussel sprouts (not my fav) were just ok in her words as was my couscous that lacked spices. The correct choice this evening was my daughter's fries. So much for trying to eat a little more healthy. Despite some of the sides, our meals were great as was the service. Everything about our visit was good and we will certainly return again and likely for dinner. read more

Silver Diner is a favorite for us. Their menu is fresh and dynamic. Their food is always hot and delicious and made to order. I love their gluten free selections include breakfast sweets like French toast and pancakes! Service is always warm and competent. On top of all the other great things, the restaurant is comfortable and inviting wether you eat at the counter, in a booth, or outside. We ate at First Watch across the street recently, and all I can say is "no contest". read more

Food is excellent! Classic 40'/50's diner setting with jazzed up menu including outstanding chicken fried steak entree, brunch classics Bay Benedict (crab cakes egg Benedict), and Red, White and Blue French Toast (raspberries, blueberries and magical cream sauce that had my son and I mopping his plate. A huge parking lot and quick service mean even packed weekends move quickly and efficient kitchen staff have rolled out consistent, reliable plates. read more

Not my 1st review of this place, I love Silver Diner! We like to take family there when they visit, always something for everyone. Even the strict Vegan! I'm writing this to address the Corporate side of the business, namely customer service as it pertains to a recent DoorDash delivery. We ordered delivery (obviously) for a special occasion, it came fast and hot to the door. However some sides were missing and wrong. Went through the proper channels to let them know about the issues, not expecting much feedback. DoorDash is a separate business- sure you know that! But Wait!!! I received a very nice letter in the mail with 3 vouchers for free entree's! Who says customer service is dead?! Once again I love this place! read more

Delicious food and the cleanest bathroom I've ever seen in a restaurant!!! We had a few issues, at first, but considered them to be minor ones. To our surprise and delight, the manager came by to check on us and address the issues that we had. He invited us back, and I'm positive we will take him up on it. We were there for breakfast, but there are a variety of dishes, including many that are vegan. The food is locally sourced and very healthy. read more

Most fast food chain restaurants get a bad rep I feel like around here, mostly because there's so much competition around. BUT, I come here at least 4 times a month or more, for their breakfast. Something about having breakfast made for you is nice, especially if you know the cooks and servers. S/O to Vinny! He is the best, always has a smile underneath that mask, and knows my order by heart. Support your local silver diner fam! They have a stupendous filtration system, you can tell how important PPE and precautions they emphasize here. Service may take a bit if you go in the mornings on the weekends, but that's expected at any breakfast or brunch spot. read more

I really enjoyed my meal here! There's a large outdoor seating area which is nice in these times. Good service and the food was tasty! The American Favorite is one of the Blue Plate options (weekday breakfast special which comes with coffee or juice). I chose to get scrambled eggs and turkey bacon for mine. The eggs were super soft and fluffy. The turkey bacon pieces were nicely charred. No complaints about the biscuit or home fries. Overall really good! I had never been here before but would love to come back! Very quintessential American vibes. read more

Been here twice now and they are good. Customer service is good. It gives off a legit diner or like a skate up and order type of place with juke boxes and stuff. The food is ok. The wings were not very good and could h r been cooked more. The chicken and waffles was... different. The waffle which has pecans in it, is great. The chicken was not so great. Very hard to chew and didn't have much taste. The breakfast food though, was very good! Eggs, pancakes, bacon and sausage were all good read more

Clearly the manager has already left for the night because the servers were horrible. Not only did I get my soup after my main entry, we were asked to leave with just 5 minutes warning. There was a table who just got seated too and they were asked to leave. Why seat them at all in the first place? We have been coming to Silver Diner for years, and this was one of the worst experience. read more

This diner is an underrated hidden gem right in plain sight! They have an outdoor patio seating and it was such a lovely day, we had to take advantage of brunch outside. The birds chirping, the smell of fresh brewed coffee. The ambiance was too nice not to enjoy it. Our waitress Yully was the sweetest and so attentive, she was great! Will definitely come back again and again. read more

Terrible Food Went there 7-5-24 and got the country fried steak with eggs potatoes and toast. Sunny side up eggs were cold, the steak was scorched and the potatoes were cold. The waitress was good though and not her fault. It was 9am and not busy at all. I should of said something to the manager but I don't like to sound like an old guy pitching about food. I would never go back and with a Macdonalds close by I recommend you go there for 1/3 the price. BTW, with coffee and oj and tip it was a little less the 30.00 never again, never again , never again read more

Food was average for the price. Chicken sandwich per my son was not as good as Chick-fil-A and came with onions that he asked to be removed. The other food was just average. Fries taste like rubber and did not seem fresh. This chain seems to be hit or miss and on this day it was a miss. Lots of staff but poor service. read more

I appreciate the review posted shortly after I posted mine.. I guess at the SD they have trouble with the ordering. In my case I ordered a burger, yes I paid the up charge for Bison, with the roasted vegetables and it was served to me with French fries. No apology, the server grabbed the fries and then returned with my now barely warm veggies. Oh well! read more

After ordering $40 worth of takeout, I was refused extra syrup unless I paid for it. Imagine how stupid I felt for having tipped for my takeout order after being asked to pay for said syrup. Like, do you charge patrons eating in the store for any syrup they use beyond the tiny 1.4oz allotment for takeout orders? Suffice it to say, it was my final time at this or any Silver Diner. I advise anyone ordering takeout to save the money you would have tipped for going in and picking up the order yourself (as I did), because you may need it for condiments. I hope the next level stinginess was worth the bad review (and possibly more bad reviews once my food review friends hear about this). I feel bad for Silver Diner employees that would have otherwise made a few extra bucks on tips from people coming in to pick-up takeout orders. read more

I love Silver Diner and have never given them a low rating before but I feel that this needs to be said. I ordered their chicken tenders/fries and cole slaw last night. The chicken had no flavor at all and the fry was very dark, thick and not crispy. Fries were soggy and some not fully cooked. I was disappointed because I know that they can do better. read more

I came to the Silver Diner for lunch and was impressed! First off, this place has some of the fastest service I've ever experienced. I was immediately seated, and my order was taken within a minute. The food prep was fast too; I got my meal in just 10 minutes. I had the Summertime Cod, and there's not enough positive things I can say about it. The fish was tender, moist, and appropriately seasoned. The quinoa perfectly complemented the fish, whereas the pomegranate gave the dish more character. read more
