gledys was very kind and very helpful as well as being really quick with our food and was overall a great waiter and person

There is no welcome quite like an old jukebox lit up like a Christmas tree, crooning out tunes from the 70s, and a hostess with a big smile holding menus. It's like a flashback to the old days. Diners are my guilty pleasure, so seeing this place even from the outside gave me warm fuzzies, and then I stepped inside... This. Is. Life. The service we received was spectacular. We were looked after; our waters and coffees were kept full, our breakfasts were brought in great time AND they were delicious. I'm not confident in what I ordered, as I did a roulette style finger pointing... but it sure was delicious! My favorite thing was the individual jukebox on each table. A word of warning though, the 'low' setting is actually very loud... I wonder what the high setting would have sounded like!? Whilst I can honestly say the menu was rather dear, it was worth every cent, just slightly disappointed with the cleanliness of the booth we sat in. read more

This place was a misfit to me. I didn't feel it at all. It is pretty busy, however, so maybe not everyone agrees with me. It's an old school diner feel, complete with juke boxes at the tables. The menu, however, is not classic diner fare and is instead created by a chef with lots of organic/local farm items. With the chef menu comes higher prices than expected from a diner. The decor and wait staff attire is nothing fancy, though. While we were eating breakfast I saw 3 people in pajamas! Overall the food was ok but not really what I wanted for breakfast. I got eggs Benedict with fries. I wanted hash browns instead of fries, but they didn't have that. For my taste it had too much Hollandaise sauce, too thin of an English muffin, and would have been better without the tomato. We wanted huevos rancheros but the menu picture of the dish didn't look authentic. So we didn't even venture to try their version. The Bloody Mary wasn't mixed well and the alcohol was at the top. Overall this is a place I tried once but it wasn't for me. read more

Always reliable and consistent. Coffee is decent here, but come for the chicken and waffles! It comes with a tangy relish that sets off the chicken perfectly. Perfect for breakfast lunch or dinner. read more

Their food is good, but it's extremely overpriced and no longer an option for our family. When a simple sandwich and drink will cost you nearly $30, how can any family afford to go to a place like that. It's too bad, but the snottiness and extreme over-priced menu no longer make this restaurant an option. Read the community and act like you're a part of it....just not the snotty, stuck up overpriced part. read more

First time ordering, but lots of issues. My omelet was good, they remembered no mushrooms so yay. But, they put the butter and english muffin on top then sealed the container. So instead of crispy muffin I got a soggy steamed english muffin with fully melted butter in the container. That's a minus. Also I was supposed to get fruit as my side. Not home fries. Normally I would shrug it off but I paid a up fee to get the fruit. I tried to call but no one picked up. Big minus. Took too bites of the muffin. Couldn't eat it. I ate the omelet, threw the rest away. Very disappointed. I am going to try again to see how lunch or dinner goes. It could be just the packer needs a bit of training. read more

Food came quickly great service from Olman! Food was fresh and tasty will come again for breakfast!

The Floor and Table were spotless, to the point I could see my reflection everywhere. My Waitress was quick, friendly, and made me feel welcome. Recommended what's popular and whats new to the menu as well. Didnt need to wait long for the meal. The food, the food was spectacular, it blessed my inner debt of the soul. It felt fresh from the farm, flavorful with many colors, unsurprisingly taste and looked delicious to the eyes and taste buds. Blanca (the manager) made sure everyone was on their task, making them hustle, making sure there was no issues, making sure tables were clean after being used. Lastly, making sure everyone enjoyed and satisfy with their meal as well read more

This has been one of the most outstanding restaurants I have ever visited. The food was amazing, My husband and I are new to Reston/Herndon, so we were so excited to try out this restaurant. Everybody was so welcoming and kind, and the jukebox at the table was nice to experience while eating. Ms. Blanca had excellent customer service when they accidentally added blueberries to our pancakes. She was very understanding and patient with us. Everything looked spotless and tidy. I recommend coming here to have a nice warm coffee in this cold weather. read more

Always great and tasty food. Something for everyone! I got there often to pick up to go dishes.

My husband and I went there yesterday for lunch. I ordered the tuna melt and my husband ordered a hamburger. His was cold and over cooked and mine was weird. You know by definition a tuna melt is an open faced sandwich. I took one bite and all I got was bread. I tried to fix it by taking off one slice of the bread but that was where the cheese was. It took us an hour to get our lunch. Mine was inedible his was over cooked and dry. Cold French fries need I say more? I was there for the first time in 10 years. I thought I'd try it because I was going to Reston now I know to find a different place to eat. read more

Cute and healthy diner! Came by for a second lunch (lol) and to play scrabble with my boyfriend after some shopping at the Trader Joe's near by. Great healthy choices and gluten free options! I got a veggie burger made to order with a side salad and my boyfriend got their meatball sub. They also serve beer and wine and do pairings with food. Our server was great and very hospitable. Place was popping during lunch and could only imagine so for dinner. definitely check this place out if looking for a relaxed or cute date idea. read more

File this under whoops, I've been to this particular location several times since it first opened and I'm now reviewing it. I have to say I was impressed, the menu changed since my last visit to any Silver Diner establishment but the menu still has a good mix of various items from more traditional diner fare like burgers, breakfast, and shakes, to a focus on healthier options as well. My husband and I came for a late dinner he got some sort of breakfast platter and I got the BLT. The portions were quite hearty, I only finished half of my meal and it still tasted great the next day. My hungry hubby finished his breakfast platter and it did look tasty. The service was terrific, our server was attentive and stopped by a few times to make sure we were doing ok. Another plus about this location its easy to get in/out of. Its right off Barron Cameron Ave, in front of Trader Joes, word to the wise if shopping at Trader Joes don't park in the Silver Diner Marked spaces. As others have mentioned I think this is one of the better locations overall from food, to service. read more

This is probably the best Silver Diner I have been to, but it still gets the usual 3 star rating. The food is probably the best tasting I have had of the ones I have been too, as was the service, but the prices are also probably one of the highest as well. I got a Belgian Waffle and eggs, with meat, and a fruit cup with an orange juice. It all came to a pretty expensive amount... for breakfast. Maybe next time I should avoid the fruit cup and juice and just stick with water. The location is also a bit tricky to find if you are not careful. Basically I found this place to be what I expected it today be, minus the high prices. read more

This is one of those places you can call "old reliable." This is a diner, with the 60's theme, it is a fun place to come and eat. The food is good - always able to "the spot." The service is hit or miss. While some days you will have a great server, like Diane or Andy, there are other days you don't. I have some specific dietary needs, which they can accommodate. However, some of the servers will take any special requests as an inconvenience. Now, the milkshakes are some of the best - hands down. Real milk. Real whipped cream. Yummy! All in all, this is a solid place to go when you want a good cup of coffee and quick breakfast for a reasonable price. read more

The worst restaurant in Reston. We recently stopped in to give them another try, and the food was terrible. The service wasn't much better. Who the heck thinks that it is ok to charge extra for syrup when you order pancakes? $1.99 for syrup. I would laugh if it wasn't completely ridiculous. But it gets better. Do you want gravy on your mashed potatoes? That's gonna cost ya.... Stop!!! Next up, surcharge on the ice water. Maybe they can price it by the cube. Just cut to the chase and close this place down. read more

Excellent burger, ok prices, good service, and good atmosphere. They did charge $1.49 for cheese, but it was worth it.

We are from out of state all the way from California. We were on our way to our hotel but we were looking for a fast food place and couldn't find much. Plus a lot of restaurants were also closed. And then I saw bright lights and was like " let's go here" .... I wish this place was in Orange County! Delicious food! Lots of options and some healthy options as well. We were most excited about their oat milk shakes so good! Love the food, love the hours and great customer service. read more

We usually eat at the silver diner in Springfield. My son who was meeting me at the Reston location, ordered the burger he usually gets in Springfield. It was not cooked all the way thru, it was actually cold on one side inside.Our server did check up on us, and the edge that my son started on at that time was cooked properly. Because the server was busy with a customer who was trying to get the deal for food on her phone, and she really wanted that deal but needed the right code, we sat while it was time to depart for me for other reasons. I got up myself to get the bill and the server had gotten so behind by then, I spoke with the manager. The restaurant was NOT BUSY! But yes at 5pm different parties will come in for dinner. Thats dinner hour. You need to be on the ball at that time, but don't rush cooking food. and eggs will cook faster than hamburger so timing is important if you want business. read more

A clean retro diner with jukeboxes at each booth. Excellent fish and chips! The chips had bay seasoning and were hot and not so crispy they were dry. The fish was nicely breaded and fried without oily aftertaste. Malt vinegar was offered but I had the tasty tartar sauce. I enjoyed the slaw, as well. Roasted corn was added to the cabbage slaw. Service was friendly and efficient. Definitely tip worthy and a return trip. read more

Honestly the service was amazing I loved it. Harry was our server and he was very attentive, brought out everything we needed in a quick manner. I would like to give this experience a 3.5 but can't due to googles star rating. The only reason my rating is on a lower scale is because I didn't enjoy my food as much. That might be on me tho and my poor choice in food lol. I got the protein pancakes with eggs, turkey bacon and chicken sausage. I def recommend going to this location just try something else lol read more

Okay. So I keep hoping every time I go back to Silver Diner it'll be better. However, this time I saw how these other terrible Yelp reviews came to be. We were seated in a booth immediately, but were only given 2 menus for 3 people. I'm not really sure how that happened because we were all seated at the same time. As I opened the menu, I noticed the prices were exorbitant. $1.49 for maple syrup? Really? And $14 for a pretty average burger I can get cheaper at the Breeze or Glory Days? Then it took another 30 minutes for our waitress to even take our order, despite the fact she walked past us several times and had plenty of time to chit chat with all the other waiters. Then another 30 to get our food. Then no water refills. I honestly was miserable and ready to go before I even got my food. This is not the childhood favorite it used to be--where birthdays and last days of school were celebrated. I'm very disappointed after having been a customer for nearly 15 years. I do not think I'll be back, and strongly suggest you don't go In an interesting turn of events, while Silver Diner offered to reach out to me, they never remedied the situation as I had been told over email. So fair warning--the customer service you see is the customer service you get even higher up. Still confused why Bryce Harper said he would miss this place...not that we miss him! read more

Tonight we were at the Reston Location of the Silver Diner and it's always a wonderful place to dine! There were three of us coming to have dinner and were greeted by Olivia at the welcoming area who made us feel right at home. She took us to our seated area and we were greeted again by our waiter, Abrabam. What a pleasant young man with a great smile to top things off. Throughout our meal he was very kind and attentive. Please let him know that he made our dinner more enjoyable by his attention to detail. We will be back for sure! We LOVE The Silver Diner! Barbara and friends read more

Silver diner never disappoints!! Before today I've only gone in for breakfast and it is always delish. Today I finally tried dinner and yum yum yum! I tried the creole salmon with Cajun shrimp over mashed potatoes with asparagus. It was delish! Flavorful, great portion and fresh! The food is always fresh and the options are plentiful for nearly every diet. There's gluten free, vegetarian, locally sourced, organic... so many options. There truly is something for everyone. I guess after today I have another lunch or dinner restaurant option to add to the list. read more

Two homeruns, one strike. ++ Wasabi fresh Atlantic salmon sliders with pineapple citrus salad: yummy teriyaki glaze and soft oat buns, and tender salmon. The nutty salad was a great accompaniment. 5/5 French fries: it's not easy to get these skinny fries right, but they did it on this visit. 4/5 Colorful, fun atmosphere. Sure, you can't escape the sticky floors, but I've accepted by now that they're to be expected in American diners. - - The hyped-up banana stuffed French toast: what a disappointment! For French toast to be little more than two thick, dry slabs of bread with tons of drizzle stuff and chocolate chips... And I thought this was French toast. Completely underwhelming, unfortunately, and will never order this again. 1/5 read more

Went for brunch . Wait to be seated was fine for a Sunday. We waited for service for a time. There no refills of coffee or ice tea offered. 3 if the 6 meals were served after 10 minutes. The 2 American Favorites did not show up. And when they did they were wrong. Biscuits instead of toast wrong meat. They went back and cane back correct except mine was 1egg not 2 and everything was stone cold. So I sent it back again and did receive a correct warm order the only reason I did not rate a 1 was because the server comped by meal. We did t get to eat together the food was marginal at best. Disappointed. read more

This is a very decent diner! In an area largely devoid of this traditional fare, finding Silver Diner was a pleasant surprise. It is done up with the classic 1950s diner motif and looks great! The restaurant is very clean. Servers are quick, polite, and attentive. We could not believe how quickly our meals came out, especially considering we were there at peak lunch time and the place was packed! I had a nice club sandwich, and my chick had a cheese steak omelette stuffed with cheese steak. The food was made with TLC and was tasty, options were a-plenty (but not overwhelming), and the prices were fair, especially considering this location is in Reston... Nice place to eat. read more
