A group of five came to Silver Diner for dinner recently. We ended up having a problem, but I'm writing the review to note our satisfaction with the response. The problem: three vegetarians ordered Beyond Burgers. When they were brought to the table it didn't look quite right, but the cooking team told the server it was Beyond Burger. Vegetarians ate some burger and asked the server a second time because it just didn't seem right. We were given bison burgers. Fortunately, we're pretty understanding and didn't overreact. The manager was very apologetic and quickly addressed the problem. read more

Following up on my recent review. Will say that Silver Diner is committed to customer service and experience. Really positive exchange when compared to some others. Hoping my last experience was a one off and that the quality is better next time read more

We brought in a group of about 60. They were ready for us, sent us the menu ahead of time so we were preordered and it was pretty good. I had the chicken pot pie. I was the only one in the group to get it, so I cannot compare notes. It was okay. Others got burgers, chicken, salads, etc. They looked to be the better option. The staff did great for our big group and we were served with efficiency. I'd go back, but I'd get the burger. read more

It had been maybe three years since we were last here, so we decided to give it a try. This time we showed up around 1:00pm on a Sunday. Silver Diner was busy, but we were seated immediately. I'll start out with the best: and that was the Oreo cookie shake. It was perfectly made and came with extra shake in a large metal cup. Service was also excellent; our server was friendly and responsive. Now, talking about the rest of our brunch: the greasy heavy home fries at Silver Diner are not good. I just couldn't finish them. I ordered the lumberjack breakfast, which is eggs, three pancakes, two choices of meat and home fries. For the meat, I picked chicken maple sausage and bacon. The bacon was okay, but the sausage was extremely dry and tough. I also ordered a side of wheat toast. The bread, with seeds, was quite good but they don't butter the toast for you. Instead, they give you little packets of butter that are rock hard from the fridge. Also they didn't give me any butter at all for my pancakes. The pancakes were decent but had a pronounced vanilla flavor. I considered ordering a burger, but chose not to when I discovered that Silver Diner uses those horrid fall-apart-after-the-first-bite Brioche buns. JP ordered a beautifully presented lamb shakshuka. The lamb was a tad gamey and the shakshuka had cilantro buried in there somewhere. Otherwise the shakshuka was good. Prices here are notably higher than at other local diners. But maybe in conclusion, I will say that you can have a good experience here if you are careful about what you order. read more

The food was excellent and the service was great. Our server, Provid, was very friendly and attentive to all of our needs. I got a BLT and the bacon was very crispy, the letus and tomato was very fresh and the bread was perfectly tosted. I would definitely go back! read more

The food was amazing and was perfect. The service was great and the waiters/waitresses were really nice and polite. It's really sweet and looks older styled. read more

I tried to give Silver Diner Springfield another chance and they failed the prompt service test again. I was seated promptly. I looked over the menu 3-4 minutes, no server. I looked up and saw three servers talking amongst themselves. I tried to make eye contact. Finally, I flagged down a bus lady and asked her for a server. A few minutes passed and a young woman walked up to me and said "Your server is very busy now so I will help. I did not need that explanation. She offered to take my drink order. My server arrived, Sunita wasvery nice, but a bit stressed. Sunita was attentive. I placed my order. The food arrived and the order of waffles was perfect. The whole meal was good. I compare this Silver Diner to my favorite restaurants Silver Diner Fairfax and Tysons where service is superb. This Silver Diner Springfield needs to work on better service. I will come back again soon. read more

Stopped at the Silver Diner while in the area for Spring Break. Love the atmosphere and ambiance of the diner. Food was great. Had the grilled cheese deluxe and had to add an Oreo shake at the end. It all tasted perfect. Service was outstanding. Would definitely recommend if in the area read more

I used to come here regularly, and it's been a couple years since my last visit on which I gave it only 2 stars. So we tried it again and guess what... it's gotten worse! Pancakes were dry and flavorless, ham was not a steak. If it was, that was the world's thinnest ham steak ever! And it came to me all chopped up. The 2 scrambled eggs were minuscule and watery, not like uncooked watery, but like they were hit with a splash. Service was spotty and they were not busy. There was one bright spot... the coffee was great! For the coffee they get one star. This diner has all the earmarks of a business that no longer cares about quality. The bathrooms were horrendous. Such a shame, it used to be a go to spot. Can't recommend read more

Fun diner experience! Popped in for breakfast and we arrived early, before the Sunday rush. Loved the music playing--it set a nice vibe. I had the Benedict with a side of bacon. It was tasty, though the bacon was from those 'paper pigs' (a prefer thicker bacon but still good). A great spot to stop by before hitting the road back home. read more

My husband and I don't go to Silver diner often, but when we do, the food is delicious! It also gives you an upscale diner feel! I ordered the Pastrami Rueben sandwich and ordered a peanut butter and banana milkshake. Probably one of the best Pastrami Rueben sandwiches I've had! Service was top notch! read more

Came here with my extended family around 11am on a Saturday. It was about 60% full. I ordered the country fried steak and eggs. The batter was a bit thick and very salty for my liking. Eggs were cooked to perfection over medium per my request. Dish also came with home fries which were inconsistent in texture (doness). My daughter 8yr old daughter ordered chicken strips and again the batter was very thick and some pieces a bit overcooked. The fries she enjoyed very much. Overall service was "meh" server rarely came by and had to ask for waters to be refilled after waiting decent amount of time with completely empty glasses. read more

This restaurant has no senior citizens menu for weekends. The breakfast menu is not comparable to IHOP $7 and $8 breakfast menu. I had to ask for butter for pancakes. Asked for ice water twice. read more

I come here often with my daughters. The selections of food and drinks (for me) are always amazing. Yesterday I did not come with the kids and sat at the amazing bar area for the first time during brunch hours (approximately 10 or so) on a Saturday. Although it was packed, I did find seating at the bar. I ordered the Tropical sidecar with shrimp and grits. Although both were amazingly made, I found it a little off putting when the bartender made my drink and another patron asked to taste it... then the bartender took a straw into the drink she made for me (but not yet handed to me) and handed the sample over to the other patron. While I watched. Then gave me the rest of the drink. It was uncomfortable for me. Please don't do that to other guests :) Other than that experience, the bartender was pretty awesome. The other staff delivering food seemed unhappy and inconvenienced, but were effective. read more

Best Silver Diner Experience Yet This is hands down the beta Silver Diner by far. The customer service is what truly sets this location apart--Joel and Melvin were both outstanding, but Joel was the main reason we decided to come back. His hospitality and attention to detail were top-tier. The food was great as always, with consistent quality and flavor. The ambience also added to the overall experience--clean, welcoming, and just a nice place to sit and enjoy a meal. Highly recommend this location if you want the full Silver Diner experience done right. We'll definitely be back again. read more

Me encantó la atención fue una experiencia fabulosa. Me hicieron sentirme como en familia. Sobre todo Gaby quien me atendió y Pavón los 2 siempre muy atentos. Gracias por todo. Volveré pronto. read more

Breakfast today was a disappointment. Service was mediocre and no water offered upon seating. Coffee was good. Breakfast was country fried steak, home fried style potatoes, biscuit and scrambled egg (hard). Waited about 10 minutes for the food ("cooked to order") Egg came out flattened...like a rogue wheel had rolled over it on the grill before placing the sad yellow victim on my plate. Utterly lifeless...didn't eat them. CF steak was good as was the gravy, did not eat the potatoes...they too looked lifeless without any seasonings or glistening of butter after being fried. These sad chunks joined the egg road kill on the side of the plate. Biscuit was decent. This place used to be bustling and busy. Fresh food, attentive wait staff and clean...not anymore. Bathroom was atrocious...only makes you wonder about the cleanliness of everything else. New rule, check restrooms first, if not maintained, leave. Spend your money and time where it is valued read more

The food was phenomenal as usual and we had a great server named Haji. Haji went above and beyond to provide the best customer experience possible. He was very knowledgeable and was able to provide great recommendations for all of our dietary needs. We look forward to dining with him again. read more

Good food. Quick service on a packed Sunday morning. No waiting at 10am, even though the parking lot told a different story. Bring a quarter for the table side jukebox. It works! read more

The food was really good and the service was impeccable. Getting into the restaurant is a bit confusing as you have to enter through the mall parking lot. It seems pricey, but for the area, prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area. read more

Wonderful experience, first time here! Free parking, seated right away on a Saturday morning at 10am, server came right away, took our orders, food was delicious, payment easy breezy. Prices are a little high, but that's everywhere. Will definitely come again! read more

The food and service were excellent! I will recommend it to my friends and I will definitely come back

Disappointed. I ordered steak and eggs and my husband the American Favorite with over easy eggs. Everything was cool to touch. My medium steak was Medium well, his eggs over easy, the home fries stone cold. The service was meh. I was only asked about coffee once and before that I pursued him for a refill. read more

Silver Diner is the spot for classic, no-frills diner food, whether it's breakfast, lunch or dinner. The portions are generous, the menu has something for everyone, and everything is reliably good. A solid choice for a casual meal! read more

Hadn't visited in a long time. But they have definitely improved a lot. The new menu is impressive and the service as well. We came today for lunch and had the Philly Steak Sandwich and tried the Wagyu Melt both of them were really good. Definitely coming back. read more

Had the Hanger Steak and eggs for Brunch today. My server was very attentive and refills came really quick. It was busy but really fast.

I am a delivery driver this morning I have an order waiting here, and no one asked anything about my order, there was a man manager who chased me out of that area, I know standing there will hinder the staff there, but I wanted him to confirm whether the restaurant has my order or not, but he showed a discriminatory attitude towards me, he meant that I am just a delivery person, the others are important here, restaurants should remember we are delivery drivers also working for the restaurant to earn money for the restaurant through the app don't treat me like that, do you know sometimes I go to the restaurant and wait for about 30 minutes but the staff said the order is not in the system or someone took it, meanwhile I asked them to check for me whether the restaurant has an order or not, but I was despised like that they didn't check and chased me out of that area read more

We were craving Silver Diner for brunch on Saturday and came to this Springfield location. Plenty of parking in the lot. The manager greeted and seated us. She was a gem. It took FOREVER for our order to be taken and for our food to be brought out. The people around us came in after us but got their orders, drinks, and food before us (and we ordered soup...). Finally, the manager was checking in with every table and asked us if we had finished our meal, when the reality was we had not even gotten our plates yet. She apologized and brought the dishes straight out. We were 10 minutes in and the waitress was trying to take a half eaten plate (that we were still working on away). She also kept forgetting the napkins, silverware we asked for. The food was good and fresh but the whole experience was shadowed by our server. read more

Absolutely incredible experience. The food was fantastic, with every dish cooked to perfection--definitely some of the best we've had in a long time. But what truly made our visit unforgettable was our server, Nathan. Nathan went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing time. His attention to detail, warm personality, and excellent recommendations were top-notch. He made us feel so welcome and taken care of. In fact, the experience we got from him was a stark difference from other people we interacted with throughout the experience. If you're planning to visit, do yourself a favor and ask for Nathan. He's what elevated our meal from great to exceptional! Can't wait to come back! read more

The food is served hot and the servers are polite. However, the prices continue to increase and the value is not as good as it once was. Make sure to check the accuracy of your order before you leave and ask for extra napkins and utensils. read more

Not good or bad, just meh the food had no flavor. The drinks had no anything it was just. I was eating at place that serves people with no taste buds. Just bland. Food service was OK.

Joel was awesome. He was super accommodating for my grandmother and provided great service! Food was delicious.

I have been eating in this restaurant for many years. I love this place. It is an excellent place to visit. I only go for breakfast or brunch. The food is to die for. The service is wonderful. Now folks, I am only talking about the Springfield, VA location because I ate at several Silver Diners in VA, but none beats Springfield, VA. The staff stays for years. They know you by name and your order. If you go there for breakfast you will see MS. Joy. Ms. Joy use to watch me for years when I was stressed out. Yet, she always had my breakfast ready when I got there. We only started talking when I retired from a really stressful career with the federal government. She then said to me, Ms. Francine, you look so happy. I told her I retired. The Silver Diners are only successful with the help of its dedicated staff like Ms. Joy, the staff and the biscuit man. People, if you are lucky, the biscuit man will serenade you with his operatic voice when he takes the biscuits from the oven. People meet Ms. Joy who always make me happy. read more
