Cookies and cream shake
Emily K.

We hit Silver Diner post baseball game to eat and kill a bit of time for the postgame crowd to clear out! We got seated right away and our server was attentive. I had a cookies and cream milkshake, which was a generous portion. I enjoyed the caesar (also a big portion!) and my parents liked their burgers. The menu is pretty expansive and gives a kinda cheesecake factory/TGI fridays feel, definitely chain-y. However I love a diner so would definitely come back and try brunch!

The Lumberjack Breakfast leaves you wanting more. It's your classic diner meal with pancakes, eggs, potatoes and meat, but by the end, I wanted more -- a testament to both the quality and portion size. Every bite was fantastic, but I wish the pancakes were larger and there was a little more of everything. Other than the portion size, everything else, from the service to the ambiance to the variety on the menu, was great.

Country scrambler is a symphony of joy for your taste buds. Fast service and nice friendly staff. Ability to serve small or large groups with ease. Large menu with variety so everyone can find something to their taste Milkshake made with real ice cream. Delicious all around

Quinoa Coconut Pancakes
David H.

I met a friend for a breakfast before a soccer game and it wasn't too packed around 9am on a Saturday. The quinoa and coconut pancakes aren't your standard diner pancakes but they're very tasty and have a unique texture due to the quinoa and coconut in the batter. The pancakes include of course quinoa and coconut and also blue berries pecans, grilled banana and strawberries. It's a good portion and they're filling without leaving you in a sugar coma. They also come with a fruit cup which goes well with the pancakes. Service was fast and friendly here. Add an Irish coffee and you've got yourself a breakfast that's worth a try before a soccer game. I enjoyed my meal here and will come back.

Washington nationals ball park
Ricarta C.

One of my favorite places to eat in the DMV. This location is nice and new and across the Washington Nationals Ball park so a really cool vibe. Service was absolutely fantastic, quick and friendly. The upstairs area was really nice and outdoor seating was available as well. Food was hot , fresh and large portions. I am stuffed !

My husband and I are regulars for dine in and take out. My husband can't get enough of the short rib burger, but lots of dishes are great here. I love all the crab dishes: crab cake platter, crab pasta, crab melt sandwich, and crab cake Benedict. Really good quality and such a reasonable price. I also love the club sandwich and the vegan cauliflower pasta. We usually split an Oreo milkshake. The adult milkshakes are HUGE! Most stuff is generous in size here. Dog friendly patio and kid-friendly throughout. My sisters's kids loved their breakfast today. We also finally tried some breakfast items ourselves. The caramel French toast and the red, white, and blue French toast are both amazing!!!!! Join eat well do well, for lots of great promos. Good for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free dining. Happy hour daily until 9pm! Always friendly servers.

Found this place just by walking around our hotel on a recent DC trip. Old school diner vibe with a modern menu. They partner with 16 local farms and have a wide variety of dishes with organic ingredients. We loved it so much we ate here twice on our trip! We had clubs, bison burger, crab cakes and meat loaf. Lots of food for your money. Also don't sleep on the milk shakes! A variety menu too includes apps, salads, soups, burgers and a variety of entrees. Also they have a great drink menu and daily happy hour! Service was friendly and quick. Staff had orders in and food served a short time later. Highly recommend them for a pre or post game meal! Also, check out their sister place up stairs Silver Social for some great drinks!

We wanted to go to a nice diner so decided to come here for lunch. It had a nice family diner vibe - not too crowded or noisy. Overall the food was good - I got the philly cheeseteak and it was pretty solid. The service was good, and some of the food was halal too, which I always appreciate. I would definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for a nice diner to go to with family and friends.

Cocktails
Meridena K.

Five stars for service, friendliness, accommodating requests, and quality. Steak was cooked really nicely, not over done. Same for burger. Get the house made salad dressing, it was delicious. And the cocktails were really good too. Kid friendly with a great kid menu. Parking here is terrible, but metro accessible.

Tricia T.

Food was so good I forgot to take a picture. Great location and was very close to my hotel. As I walked in, we were greeted by the hostess who showed us to our table. The restaurant was beautifully decorated for valentines day and they even had a photo backdrop. The server was great and the menu options were extensive. So many options to choose from. I got the caramel French toast with strawberry lemonade and it was amazing and delicious. Definitely worth my visit.

Tuna melt
Mercelis B.

I will literally always go to and recommend Silver Diner. The menu has options for any and everything and they add seasonal items periodically throughout the year. The tuna melt will always be my #1 though, it's perfection.

New! Mozzarella Spinach Artichoke Eggrolls
Janrose S.

Solid food, happy hour from 3-9 PM, service depends on who you get. The shakes are great and I enjoyed the new egg rolls! Brownie on the sundae tasted a little plain and burnt.

Land New! Land and Sea Sampler
Scarlett D.

Came here on a Sunday afternoon to enjoy brunch with one of my friends. This is only my second time visiting a silver diner. The atmosphere was really cute. They have a silver social upstairs, which I will have to go visit. The server was sweet as can be as well as the hostess. Getting into the food, the seafood sampler was delicious the sauce that goes with the shrimp balance perfectly. The eggrolls were better than I imagined. I was not too fond of my crabcake melt. There were capers and corn, which I was not expecting. And the au jus wasn't my cut of tea. I forgot the name of the noodles. My friends got, but they were amazing. They had cauliflower and were Thai based. I would def come back for their happy hour and to try their expansive menu

We've been to different Ted's locations a few times, but never when they had their cinnamon roll, so we had to try it. It literally was as big as my head and it was delicious!

I decided to to bold and ordered the chicken and biscuits. Unlike the photos I saw on Yelp, they now give you two chicken biscuits and hash browns. I asked for the hot honey on the side but it was liquid instead of thick. It was delicious but not as spicy as I had expected. The biscuits were superb! So thick and flaky, freshly baked. I wish I had some jam on the side. The fried chicken was solid but thin so a little dry. My spouse had the burger and he said it was amazing. The fries are great but some were a little too salty. What was mind blowing and the reason we came in the first place were the Ted's Tarts. I absolutely love pop tarts from child hood but no longer eat them because I know better but these were the tarts of my adulthood dreams. We ordered one of each flavor because we were flying back to CA later that evening and also, why not? The fillings were rich and ultra flavorful. The pastry was flaky and delicate. Just WOW! Also, it is in a super cute neighborhood and it has a coffee/alcohol bar. I mean, come on!

Ok, so I love Mr. Henry's and have been coming here for a long LONG time! But, to be honest, it is…read morea difficult place to review. I can't decide between 5 stars which my gut tells me OR 4 stars because the interior is so drab and dreary. Ultimately, I decided to give it 5 stars because the food was so good and the service was so lovely! So there - that is my decision! We returned to Mr. Henry's after a long hiatus and we found the food still among the best comfort food in the city. My spouse's blue cheese hamburger was juicy and meaty. The potato chips were crispy and not greasy (and tasted like real potatoes). The cole slaw was tart, a little sweet and a little tangy - just like it should be. A very good meal. For me, I had the pulled pork. OMG the pork was so good. Very moist, real meat and it had a luxurious barbecue sauce that neither overwhelmed the meat nor underwhelmed the sandwich! And the bun was toasted to perfection and held together perfectly under the moisture of all that delicious pulled pork. Really really good! One thing that struck both of us was how VERY good the service was! Naveeta was so friendly, so professional and so talkative (without ever interrupting us). She really added a great casual yet welcomed atmosphere to Mr. Henry's. She was able to help us navigate the menu. If our glasses got close to empty, she was right there for a refill! She is the consummate waitress to be sure! The other waiter (who did not wait on us) also seemed friendly and professional. How did they find such good people to work there??? The ambiance of the dining room leaves a little to improve on. It's not just old, it's run down. That doesn't stop me from loving the place and it will NOT stop me from coming back of course. But, it is, to be honest, not a good looking or modern dining room. It is comfortable though and that is consistent with the type of food you get here. It is not fine dining BUT the food is all SO DAMN GOOD that you really don't care! Is it a touch dirty looking? Maybe. But, again, I can overlook that if the food knocks my socks off (which it did). And when the service is great, I have to give this place its due. I guess that is the real reason Mr. Henry's has been around so long. Delivering great comfort food in a friendly and efficient way with a big smile on their faces! I highly recommend Mr. Henry's for a wonderful casual meal of comfort food in a great atmosphere!

At first we went into nearby Hawk and Dove, but they only had brunch items, and some of us were looking for something more savory/substantial. One more block, and the answer appeared, like a rainbow after a summer storm. It was the only crowded place today, a good sign! We were seated in about 3 minutes and had a great meal. Son and I both liked the grilled ham and cheese. The ham was great- just the right thickness and perfect blend of salty and sweet. The fried pickles were the perfect appetizer to take the edge off our hunger. My wife liked, but couldn't finish, her breakfast quesadilla. DIL enjoyed the waffle stacker. Wife said the waffle was delicious. One of the most historic places on Capitol Hill, friendly staff, good food, and a unique experience. Highly recommend!

My only note for improvement would be the timing of when the food is brought out to the table. Some people like to eat certain food items together and the pace was lagging in-between the food items dropped off to the table. Another area for improvement was the frequency in which the waiter checked our table, especially since we had bottomless mimosas. I feel we may not have been able to maximize on our mimosas due to the slow check-backs. Other that the noted areas that could use some improvement, the food was very good and we enjoyed our time together immensely!

Tables are limited, so make sure to have a reservation. On the topic of food, I didn't see much on the menu I could eat, so just opted for a cocktail (ate at home). There were some side option, just nothing that really suited me. I ordered a beer and later a tequila sunrise. The cocktail was bright, beautiful, and delicious. It was such a great drink for the beautiful sunny day it was. Our server was Deja and she was wonderful. She was prompt and we saw her often, which was appreciated. The check is done via QR code which was very easy. We had a slight issue with our check not pulling up, but she quickly resolved. Again, the food doesn't really suit my preferences (heavy meat options), but I would definitely pop back for a drink.
