I've lost count how many times we've come to silver diner navy yard in the last 2yrs. Always an A+ experience. Ambiance . Service . The food is fresh and we will keep coming back. We've had pretty much everything on the menu and nothing has been a miss. Enjoy. read more

It was a great atmosphere, to have a choice between the downstairs vs. the upstairs "nightlife" area was great. This was the fanciest Silver Diner I have ever been to and the wait staff as well as the hosts were great. I also enjoyed their menu's selections being a little more "high class" but still great tasing appetizers and their steak was so good. Please check this place out, even if it's a late night you will not be disappointed!! read more

Was heading to a game with the fam. I'm a fan of Silver Diner so we went there to eat and it is conveniently across the street from the stadium. Naturally, you'll pay a little more for that convenience. The service was good and they definitely had the proper amount of workers there. The place is clean and it's absolutely a chill ambiance that you'll have with the outdoor seating. The inside seating is a little dark and not my cup of tea but on a sunnier day, I assume it's better. We all ordered different types of burgers. They were definitely tasty and much better than spending that type of money inside the stadium for smaller serving sizes. I would definitely return here! It was all around a pleasant experience. I definitely want to see how their desserts are. read more

After attending Enchant DC, I decided to check out Silver Diner in Navy Yard. It was not busy at all which I enjoyed! The service was quick and easy. I ended up getting a simple burger and fries. The food was good. Not very exciting but a good burger nonetheless. read more

An excellent brunch place in Navy Yard. The service is great - they are very friendly (joking around with us) and provided some excellent pointers and tips. I got the shrimp and grits and a milkshake and I was very happy with both items. The food was flavorful without anything being overwhelming powerful. The menu items are also pretty fun and different from your typical brunch places in the area. It's right by Nats Park and I would highly recommend any ballpark visitors come here before or after the game. read more

Everyone that works here was very pleasant and kind. Came here alone for breakfast and they had me in and out which I liked. The menu is what you expect out of a diner menu pretty large. I went with a standard steak and eggs. I went with medium rare cook but it was veering on well done. Regardless great meal altogether and over easy eggs were cooked to perfection. read more

First of all it's in Navy Yard which offers many options from dining to drinking to sports when season arrives. But one of my go to spots to eat especially after hanging with friends for cocktails and fun is Silver Diner. For those later evening meals to sit and relax with friends. The food is fast, fresh and vibrant. I especially like the hanger steak meal and the chicken pot pie is mouthwatering. Don't forget to check out their shakes with premium Tillamook ice cream. The service there is very good and usually engaging as they are warm, genuine and welcoming. At times the food takes a little longer than others but they are always keeping you updated as to timing, which I appreciate. Nothing worse than a server that ignores you when things go a little sideways. Great for brunch as well especially with the upstairs Silver Social option and their fabulous happy hour. Best deal on drinks and food for HH. You gotta check it out if you haven't already!! read more

Probably the coolest and biggest silver diner I've been to. Stopped by for a bite before catching a Nats game with my family. They have a cool upstairs area too. Staff was really friendly, food was better than I remembered for silver diner...although before this time I haven't eaten at one in a few years. I think their revamp really helped/worked. It doesn't seem as much of a lame classic diner anymore. It's more of a full on restaurant with an extensive menu...maybe too extensive? I was basic and had avocado toast, but it was good. read more

Nice surprise! Essence of a diner but much nicer! Large menu with so many healthy options. We had breakfast- oatmeal protein pancakes with blueberries were so good- served with whipped coconut cream. Generous portion. Husband had waffles with eggs and bacon - all very fresh! Coffee also excellent! Wait staff friendly with appropriate attention to our table. Bonus- if you're going to a baseball game the stadium is right across the street!! And if you're not , try this place anyway - I don't think you'll be disappointed! read more

It might seem random, but whenever I'm craving a tuna melt sandwich, I always head to Silver Diner. The ambiance is old diner vibes. It's one of those comfort foods that never disappoints. The food and service is always quick, is perfectly made, and hits the spot each time. It's so good that I'll even order it on Uber Eats when I don't feel like driving to get it. read more

The food is okay but the atmosphere is pretty nice. It's a classic diner feel with booth seating. They could use way more seasoning on their potatoes but other than that, nothing to complain about for classic breakfast food. read more

I always love the food here, BUT today I did not receive the ice cream with my bread pudding. That really ruined my day. I got a crab cake sandwich which was great and a bread pudding. My co worker picked it up for us. When I come there the atmosphere is always nice. The service is always good, but today I'm sad to say I'm disappointed. I am adding to the review because I just tasted the bread pudding. It is horrible. What are the little square things? Omg sad face sad face. read more

I was excited to see more late night dining options opening in Navy yard, and eager to try this spot out. When we arrived, it was fairly busy, but we were promptly seated. The service left a bit to be desired. I'm not sure if our server was overwhelmed, or new, or both, but I could tell she was a bit in over her head while waiting on us. A big selling point for this spot is that they serve all day brunch, even during the week, so that's what we ordered. We got the apple pie stuffed French toast (with strawberry and bananas added), and the fried chicken and french toast. We also ordered a couple of cocktails along with our food. I didn't care for the breading on the chicken and it could have used more seasoning, but the french toast was fine. Also, they must use the term "stuffed" quite loosely - the apple and creme toppings were just on the french toast and plate. Nonetheless, my friend said it tasted fine as well. We were extremely disappointed with the cocktails that we ordered. I also got the feeling that the bartender was either new or unlicensed. When I asked for an espresso martini, they literally gave me a martini (or chilled vodka) and a shot of espresso on the side. I was flabbergasted lol. I did ask the server to take it back, and she had another bartender make one that looked/tasted more authentic. My friend ordered the Strawberry Hennessy, but we're almost positive they didn't have all the ingredients listed on the menu to make it, and so they just threw something together. Due to the lackluster drinks and okay service, Im not sure if I would fully recommend this place. However, it's an okay option as a last resort. read more

This restaurant brings an elevated diner feel to Navy Yard. Filled with big booths and small tables, this restaurant exudes a casual, welcoming warmth. It's a relaxed atmosphere where patrons are dressed in casual sweatpants to beautiful going-out clothes. The menu is expansive, from breakfast to dinner, with options for any picky eater. Everything is cooked fresh and comes out from the kitchen quickly. The salads at Silver Diner are my favorite. I'd highly recommend the Ancient Shrimp Grain bowl, which was huge and delicious. The Chicken Caesar Salad is another favorite. The staff is helpful and attentive throughout your visit. Pro tip - they can typically seat you faster than the initial quoted time so stay close if you try and pop in. read more

We were looking for a place to go after enchant, and this was one of the only places open, and it wasn't bad. I feel like it's like Denny's if Denny's was trying too hard. We wanted just something easy on the stomach and soothing for the soul so we ordered some sweet potato fries and a chicken noodle soup. The soup was smaller than we expected and not as soothing as we wanted ):. We wish it was hotter, and the noodles were kinda mushy, and the sweet potato fries were kinda salty. The staff was all very welcoming and I did enjoy the Christmas decor. I decent late night choice for people looking for food after attending the Nats stadium. read more

Silver Diner is a restaurant that I grew up eating here in Maryland. This was my first time at this location and I enjoyed the appetizers and a steak and cheese sandwich. I usually enjoy breakfast but I was not disappointed by the sandwich.The service was quick and the ambiance was relaxed and comfortable. read more

Our server Nyy and her management team was amazing. The atomosphere in this specific location is impeccable. I will bring my family and friends here when they're in town. read more

Dylan killed it. Very accommodating when we came in with a 9 top with no notice, he was so lovely and a rockstar. Shout out Dillan

Good food consistently for the whole family. I can bring my grandkids and get something for them and something for myself.

I was very excited for my first visit to Silver Diner but I unfortunately was met with much disappointment. Last week I visited in the morning for a late breakfast. There was a bit of a wait and I was placed on the waitlist (10-15 min.). However I stated to notice that people who walked in after me and were also waiting were being seated before me! If I hadn't went back to the front to ask about my table I would have been waiting longer than the quoted time. When it came to my order, I ordered the buttermilk pancake platter with scrambled eggs and chicken sausage. When my pancakes came out they were not only tepid but difficult/tough to cut through. They didn't look anything like the other pancakes I saw come out at other tables around me. Since the restaurant was so busy I wasn't able to speak with anyone about this and it also took a long time for me to receive my order. Needless to say I was disappointed with my overall experience at Silver Diner in Navy Yard and not sure I'd return anytime soon. read more

Paola was a great server! Food and outdoor dining next to the Nationals Stadium are also a win!

My favorite place to eat in Navy Yard! Food and services is consistently great and is well priced.

We love diners everywhere we go and Silver Diner is a good DMV local option. Since adding one to Navy Yard, we've gone several times. We added our children to the free Kid's club. For signing up, you get a lanyard and a card to scan for every visit and a free birthday meal if you sign up at least a couple months before the birthdate. Then for every visit, you get a pin with a card that might be blank or might have a free treat. If you visit 5 times in 3 months, the sixth meal is free. We visit a lot but never enough to get that free sixth meal. Still a favorite restaurant for the fam. Great staff and ambiance! Sometimes they run out of the food we choose which is a bummer but they find ways to accommodate. We always spend too much here compared to other diners but gotta love Silver Diner! read more

We stayed in DC for a week and ate here three times - super yummy, very welcoming, and the focus on healthy local food was helpful for our family who has a range of dietary needs. The restaurant is beautiful- mid century cool. Affordable too. Coming from CA we have high standards around food, and they nailed it. I love that they had so many plant based options too! And servers were really sweet to us. We will definitely come back! read more

This spot used to be one of my favorites but it is progressively getting worse. I order breakfast and get uncooked potatoes, non-toasted bread, and the meat is typically either overcooked and uncooked. The service is great but the food is not. Today was the last time I waste money on the food. I ordered breakfast potatoes and received onions that look like that were for French onion soup in my potatoes (which I did not request) along with the potatoes not being cooked and food ice cold. Will not be back. read more

Dylan was attentive, had great meal suggestions, and was generally a great person to interact with. 10/10, thank you Dylan.

Ho hummmmmm...,craving a shake? It's a standard breyer's ice cream mix. I was told the plant based ice cream shakes by #eclipse (especially minty grasshopper) is fantastic. And you can substitute regular ice cream. Perhaps next time? The apple pie ala mode was fresh and unstructured, with a dollop of plain breyers ice cream. Nothing fantastical here... Customer service was awesome!!!! Sydney was friendly and informative about the menu. Staff were accommodating and turned on the baseball game for us! read more

I've had their food catered at a work event and delivered through a food app so thought to check them out for dine in. They didn't disappoint--they got 4 stars because I was the server was more attentive but the drinks and food were good. It was also late and right before they closed so we had some grace. read more

Dined in for a late brunch. Our wait for walk-in was not long, ~15 minutes. Service was good. Our server was very attentive and nice, checked on us constantly and made sure we had enough coffee and cream. When we first got there, it was packed, so it took a little while between when we ordered and got our food. But it wasn't a terribly long time. Food was good too. We tried the Apple pie French toast and corned beef hash. The apple pie French toast was good, a little on the sweeter side with a creamy style filling between slices and was topped with roasted apples and pomegranate seeds. It wasn't greasy like some French toast can be. The corned beef has was a finer hash and came with diced potatoes, biscuit and eggs your way (we chose over easy). The eggs were cooked correctly and the potatoes were cooked through. We got coffee, they serve compass coffee and make it nice and dark. They had run out of the mocha to make a full mocha cold brew shake, but were able to make small mocha shake. It supposed to be plant based, and was good thick shake. It did have an aftertaste that reminded me of soy milk. Price was pretty standard for brunch foods. I would say it is a good deal, since we've paid more for less in the area. We will be back to try dinner foods! read more

Talk about an AWESOME night. My family and I came in for the sneak peak on Friday 9/30/22 and had an amazing time. We were greeted immediately and seated quickly with out reservation. Our waiter "EDWIN" was Phenomenal. It was only his 3rd day but he already had knowledge of the menu and offered GREAT choices. The menu is massive so be prepared to find the right items. I know I did. We ordered the following appetizer: Shrimp Quesadilla's - (Edwin's recommendation) Amazing, tasty and delicious. 5/5. Id get these again for sure and I don't usually like trying things. Cheese Fries - Really nicely seasoned. They were so good I forgot to get a picture. 5/5 Buffalo Wings- I would have liked them to be cooked a little harder but they were good as well. Its really hard to mess up wings. 4/5. I love the fact that they were saucy. As for the drinks, my wife ordered: Strawberry Hennessey and I believe the Tropical Side Car She wasn't a fan of the Strawberry Hennessey as it had some type of soda mixed in. I don't think she finished this but she LOVED the tropical side car. That was gone in a few minutes. She said we have to come back for this. Finally onto the meals: I ordered the french toast without the caramel. DELICOUS DELICIOUS DELICOUS! This is always a hit and a go to of mine at Silver Diner. It never misses. It comes with meat and eggs. The bacon was tasty as well. My wife also ordered the french toast. She was impressed as well. She had no idea it was so good and couldn't believe I didn't tell her about it. My daughter ordered a burger which seemed a little raw to me but they said that's typically how they make them. We also ordered the country fried steak. I must say I wasn't a fan and that it caught me off guard. The gravy wasn't to my liking but the potatoes and eggs were. I ate around the gravy. If I get this again I would leave off the gravy. Overall this place is GREAT! I will definitely be returning and I hope Edwin is still there. read more

TTHIS IS A PROBLEM!!! - Im trying to cook more but this COULD be my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood! Perhaps we just picked the right things, but the food was good!!! Every single thing we ordered was awesome, down to the Guava-Mint Ginger; a definite MUST try Bryan R. Was my server; super chill but super attentive. Everything he gently recommended delivered! - Chipotle Salmon and Shrimp; clearly a Chef creation the leeks, veggies, etc came together beautifully! - Red White and Blue French Toast; all of the taste of French toast but kind of light. Tip - this is not Sliver Social which is upstairs; you cannot order food the other restaurant. We did solver social last night and it was good too. - Outside Seating 'allegedly' closes at 9pm - A little pricy for a Diner, but this is not really a diner! Kalkidn was my hostess; I've come in here a few times at night and she was by far the most welcoming!!! read more

We visited in a Sunday round 2:30. The food was wonderful and there was a great variety of options to choose from. It all arrived hot, fresh and in a timely fashion.

Highly recommend this establishment!!My wife and I went to Silver Diner approximately two hours before attending a Nationals game on July 4th. They are conveniently located outside one of the entrances to the ballpark. My wife got The American Favorite two Amish Eggs, bacon, huge biscuit, fruit cup. It came with home fries but she wanted grits instead. My pick is the California Omelette. (See picture with ingredients) Despite being very busy before game time, service was exceptional. Brian did a nice job of being attentive. I believe he was new and confused about his area. He recovered nicely. Silver Diner had the feel and atmosphere you experience before a ballgame. Very busy and it seemed like the people's choice of dining. It has a relatively big space to accommodate lots of patrons. They handled the crowd well. There were several who showed up closer to game time that turned away because of the long line to check in. I'm not sure what it's like in the off-season or when the Nationals are on the road. I assume the would have regulars who dine there before going to work. P.S. Started the day here and ended the day with a To Go order we placed online. After a ballgame early afternoon we traveled to The National Mall for sightseeing all the monuments and memorials. Finished the day with the fireworks show. When returning to the hotel located near the Navy Yard, we decided to actually grab a late dinner. One of the few places that were open at 10:00pm on a holiday. My wife got a Chopped Cob Salad with grilled chicken. I got the Hawaiian Luau burger with sweet potato fries. Both were delicious. Sorry no pics!! read more
