Crab cake melt
Marie S.

I liked the decor of the place. Located in a little strip mall, my friends and I came here and ordered a range of burgers, pancakes, and omelets. I got the crab cake melt, which came with a lobster bisque to dip it in, fries, and coleslaw. It was interesting having corn in the coleslaw. Even for the price paid ($21.99), portions were large and the sandwich was tasty. I'd like to come back for dessert or a shake. 2026 #11

Crab & Corn Chowder
Marty S.

This is a Classic 50's/60's/70's era Diner located within multiple franchises around the Washington, DC area (also known as DMV: Delaware-Maryland-Virginia)! An experience one should not miss as the menu choices are varied of standard diner dishes with the 24hr flexibility of breakfast served too! Enjoyed a plentiful chicken pot pie classic entree which included a choice of one: soup, chilli, side mixed green or caesar salad. I chose a cup of crab and corn soup while my companion chose the chicken noodle soup. Both were served at a perfect temp and flavorful. Unfortunately, I was completely filled and could not even try nor attempt any of their freshly made and decadent homemade desserts. Don't miss this special eatery and be prepared to enjoy jukebox Jackson 5, Motown, Smokey Robinson as well as early Beatles, Bob Segar, Eagles during your dining therefore leaving you with a full stomach and a smile as you depart.

I was in the area for a doctors appointment and the nurse suggested I came here for breakfast. The decorations for this palce was so so cute. Their menu is extensiveeee. I could not decide what to order and was so surprised how many items they have and the diversity of it all. However my experience was okay. I ordered the challah french toast with cofffee. It was okay. My french toast was a little bland. It was good but felt something was missing. The service was my biggest pet peeve. My server was nice, but nowhere to be found when I needed something. At one point, I literally stood up looking around the dining room trying to find them because I was ready to pay but couldn't find them. I would come back for the aesthetic and to try other items with my family, but now I know to expect to be there for an hour waiting to be served.

Green Goddess Lobster Salad
Christina L.

I ate brunch with a colleague this past Sunday. The restaurant was very busy! The server was fairly attentive, though she disappeared at some point while we waiting for the check. I ordered the summer special, Green Goddess Lobster Salad. It was amazing! It's made with summer greens, local goat cheese, berries, radishes, Green Goddess dressing, pistachios and pomegranates. Unfortunately, I ordered before my colleague arrived, and my food arrived AFTER hers. I waiting a solid 25 minutes for a salad. It seemed to be a fluke, but was disappointing when eager to eat the first meal of the day.

Ribeye Philly Steak and sweet potato fries
Kerri C.

We recently tried Silver Diner at BWI, and only a few weeks ago realized there was one not too far from our house so we decided to go for an early dinner. Our server was lovely, and the food was so good! We shared the crispy Brussels sprouts, I got a peach soda and my boyfriend got a creamsicle, and then for dinner I got the Philly cheese steak and he got the fish and chips. Our favorite was the Brussels sprouts- they were crispy, and had such a good sauce (that wasn't spicy thank goodness). We both loved our sodas. My cheese steak was really good, but in my opinion far too many onions so next time I'd ask for light onion. He really enjoyed the fish and chips as well, but noted the batter for the fish wasn't the traditional light and fluffy batter. It was different- but good! Also to note- the portion sizes are huge! You'll definitely leave stuffed. We look forward to returning in the near future. I'm glad it's nearby!

I frequent here to grab breakfast/brunch since it's very close. This location and diner has the best pancakes and I come back every time to eat them. First time sitting at the bar but had a great experience. I can't wait to go back for more pancakes.

Wow can describe wow great this food was a 10/10 diner! Our server was Joshua, He was so nice and kind checking on us every time. My husband had the steaks with mash and asparagus wow to die for! If you are around the area check this place out you won't be disappointed.

Minaz M.

Service and food were both good! The strawberry was FABBBBBBBB.. omg sooooooooo good!!!! Yum yum yum the fries were good too. I think we paid about $220 with tip for 6 adults and 4 kids. Ambience is pretty chill and laidback.

Mimosa flight
Mary G.

The new mimosa flight is pretty great. This is our go to diner because the food is always fresh, different varieties and love the shakes and desserts! Service is good. Used to be able to play the jukebox on tabletops but not anymore. Overall a great diner

Breakfast
Yvonne R.

Breakfast selection was good the waitress Bre was fantastic!!!. Some of the food items were overcooked but we left satisfied. Classic diner items.

Sarthak S.

I am writing this review after being a regular for a few years. I have had many a fun times at Silver Diner. The service there was always great. The ambiance was retro that will take you back in time. You have your own little jukebox right on your table. The booths were comfy. During my many visits to Silver Diner, I sampled many items off of their menu. Some of my favorites include: chicken pot pie, chicken lemon picatta, pickle-brined fried chicken sandwich, and their milkshakes, just to name a few. All in all, I highly recommend this establishment.

Bacon
Diane W.

Food was ok today. I placed my order online and the pickup time said 12:01. I arrived at the restaurant a few minutes before my pickup time and my food was already sitting waiting for me- which was good. I checked my food out before I left due to having issues here before, everything seemed to be ok. I get home which is less than 5 minutes away, and my food was cold. It wasn't even like warm. It seemed as if it had been sitting h too long and my food lost its quality. Also, I had no plasticware and only 1 syrup but 5 or 6 packs of ketchup. I really keep giving this spot chance after chance but it's always something.

Armistead J.

I decided to stop in for breakfast because the sliver diner always has some really great breakfast options. This place also is a wonderful vibe too me not sure why. I decided on the Philly omelet and it was absolutely outstanding. I normally get Huevos rancheros with bison but didn't see it on the menu at this location but overall I have a really great breakfast with A 1 customer service.

Reviews are mixed. Many praise the friendly service, classic diner atmosphere, and menu variety.

She was a ray of sunshine and gave us help in deciding on menu items. We both ordered salads. I ordered the crab and shrimp Louis salad. And, my friend ordered a chicken salad. Our salads were huge, fresh, and delicious. I really liked the fresh veggies and poached shrimp. I also liked the surprise sprinkle of Old Bay on my seafood. I wasn't a fan of the crabmeat. The dressing was delicious too. My friend liked her chicken salad. She did say her chicken was a little dry. But, she loved all of the fresh veggies and ended up taking the leftovers home. I also ordered the Oreo cheesecake which was delicious. I mean come on now, you combine Oreo's and cheesecake, that is a winning combination and the whipped cream was amazing. The restaurant itself was bright, colorful, and full of sea themed decor. The booth was comfortable and you get 3 hours of free parking in the garage. Again, thanks Fatima for your excellent service.

First night there, after 10 hours on the road, we had a meal so good, and so convenient, we went back Saturday and Sunday night before getting underway home on Monday morning. I wish the kind people there a great success and please, keep up the good work. A few highlites. The "free" salsa is some of the best I've ever encountered, much like Chico's in Welaka, Florida, distinct for it's use of Black Pepper. Secondly, the Guacamole was the best I've ever had outside my families homemade recipe. Very similar to ours in that it had salt, garlic, and lemon juice, in perfect proportions. We ate everything from Gumbo to fried Rainbow Trout, to Cheese Burger and Reuben Sandwiches, and every thing was splendid. The beer was COLD and the waitresses were friendly and on time.

This place just missed the mark for me. It had just opened and I was trying to take a bookmark off. I learned last year that being the first to a restaurant isn't an achievement it actually is a disservice sometimes. Well, two years later my sweet partner "Big Poppa" (who lives pretty far) committed to coming to me every week to do date night in or out so we have quality time together. He said he Googled all the best restaurants near the D.C. line. He asked me to dress up so I'm thinking it has to be somewhere super nice. When we drove up to Station 202 he said, this can't be it. I laughed so hard. He was so confused. He immediately said, I can't bring you here. I am super easy going so I insisted to just stay and try it out. Needless to say, it is an old dated Italian spot, the owners did not renovate this place at all. It's not fancy and super casual. He said he got cat fished by the pictures. I agree they look good online but the establishment is super casual. Let's get into it! Calamari - Not bad, I'd likely ask them to fry them hard if I ordered again. Meatloaf - Big Poppa was hesitant to order this but he liked it. I didn't try so we are going to take his word for it! Shrimp Linguine - Well I didn't get linguine but it was still very good! We opted for dessert outside of here. Note: Big Poppa was going to get the Burger but when he asked if the hamburger patty was fresh the waitress said no they were frozen. I raised my rating to three. It's okay but I wouldn't come back. Cheers!

But sometimes, even the best experiences can take an unexpected turn! So, my son surprised me yesterday with a call to tell me he had ordered breakfast delivery for my birthday. I was excited to learn it was from First Watch, my favorite breakfast spot. My anticipation grew as I opened the sealed bag, revealing the packed breakfast boxes ready to be enjoyed. However, my mood shifted after I removed a couple of boxes and noticed the plastic silverware pouch had been opened. The fork was missing and the opened silverware pack raised concerns, making me question the attention to detail and packaging standards. After noticing the packaging issues, I began to wonder about the cleanliness of the rest of the order. Sadly, some items fell short of expectations -- the waffle was soggy, the eggs were stiff and cold, and the potatoes were simply mediocre. The one thing i did enjoy was the fresh fruit bowl which was the highlight of the meal. This experience left me feeling sorely disappointed, I can only give this experience three stars, and that's being generous. First Watch Silver Spring, I hope you take this feedback seriously, as quality control truly matters.

The service was great and incredibly attentive. Everyone was so nice. I ordered waffles, scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, and coffee. The waitresses might ask all their questions to ensure it is cooked to our liking. I barely have pictures because I was so famished. We ended up staying for like 2-3 hours talking as the restaurant started to wind down, and they let us sit and chat while we watched the parking wars outside. MY biggest con is the parking. It is annoying that Sardi's catering occupies 30-40% of the lot. There is a fast turnaround, so my friends and I literally sat and waited to catch someone leaving before parking, rather than driving in circles. There is a hotel next door with ample signs that it's for guests only and that you will be towed; however, I still saw people do it and then watch their cars from the window lol.
