Pulled in to the silver leaf for a quick breakfast and was a little concerned about getting a table with all the vehicles in the parking lot. Not to worry - there were still plenty of empty tables in the dining room. The diner has the flat top and cook working right in front of you which I like - reminds me of many old diners that I've been to. The waitress was quick with coffee and menus - we ordered and the food was surprisingly quick to be delivered. Food was good .... No wow factor but was what we needed to get through to lunch. Bathroom doors are very narrow and restrooms quite dated.

For an out of the way place, there is good food to be had. I had an omelet, which was good. Others had a Ruben sandwich and chipped beef. Both were good! If you're in the area and hungry, go for it.

I have been trying a lot of diners in this part of ny. This is my favorite. Inside is nice. Service is top notch. The food is amazing and the prices are great. My number 1 pick for this area. I had to travel 45 minutes each way to get here. Worth the trip.

Part cinnamon roll and toast

Well swung in here to eat some breakfast. Read some reviews that said homemade bread and pies... that did it! Lol I had some nice coffee and Bf had iced tea. He decided to have a julliniee salad. I had oatmeal that came with toast and coffee! I opted for one piece of toast since I was having a cinnamon roll. Wrong... that bread for the toast was light and airy and the homemade jam omg...! I ate most of the cinnamon roll. Thank god he was sitting across from me. He tackled the rest. He stole a bite of my one piece of bread too and loved it. So he ordered an order of toast as well. I got my bite back haha!

Jumbo fish fry with Mac and cheese on Fridays is the best anywhere. Great service and prices. Always lots of homemade dessert choices.

This was exactly the type of diner I was hoping to find. Everything was perfect. It reminds me of a Greek diner.

Don't let the area around the diner dissuade guy from trying it. Walked in on a weekday morning,…read moredecent crowd. Friendly wait staff seated me and brought a coffee. I ordered an omelette and home fries. I judge a diner breakfast by the quality of the homefries and these were A+. Extra crispy, real potatoes that were nicely seasoned. Everything was hot, coffee was very good. Friendly attentive staff. Can't wait to go again.

Looking for breakfast spots in the area this looked to be our best bet. Plenty of parking available…read moreand it is located in what appears to be an old mall that while outdated looking did appear to be full of many other businesses. This is your classic diner you would imagine when you think of spots that brings regulars in everyday. Also I must add they were decorated for Christmas to give that little extra holiday feeling, great touch. You are greeted right away by some of the friendliest staff and service is top notch. The person in our party was getting their coffee topped off long before it had a chance of being empty. Not really something you see with service quality much these days. In typical diner fashion they offer their breakfast all day during their open hours as well as have rotating daily specials. While some of the specials sounded really good, and even just their typical menu offerings sounded tasty both my wife and I ended up choosing an omelette. She ended up choosing the bacon and cheese while I got one of their loaded ones that came with sausage, onions, homefries, and cheese. Serving sizes were great and it is definitely a spot you will be leaving feeling full. While both were tasty, we have had better breakfast and omelettes elsewhere but would gladly return here again! The cheese used appeared to be American cheese slices and my wife's hash brown had an off taste from the oil used to fry it. Just a few knocks against the food to make it a 4 star review rather than 5 but minimal overall. Positively though they filled her omelette with a ton of bacon! If you are in Potsdam or the nearby area looking for a breakfast (or lunch) spot I do think this is worth your time! Some of the friendliest staff in a place with old school vibes for a good hearty meal!
