    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Silver Spoon has been around for years and I would say it's most accurately described as being an average diner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is your traditional NYC diner fare - all day breakfast, sandwiches, meatloaf, gyros, etc. The thing that will draw people is that they have very good prices even by Queens standards. Most entrees with a side are in the $14-$16 range, which is what even a fast food meal costs nowadays. They even have lunch specials in the $10 to $12 range. We ordered a variety of food and it was okay. The portion sizes are normal and average. One of their signature items is the burger and it was also just average in size and taste. It was actually a bit dry. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is acceptable choice if you are in a rush to find a nearby diner. If you have time to spare, you can find much better.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Found a hair inside my tartar sauce.... That's absolutely disgusting!

    The food is pretty pricey even from many years back and now that a lot of things have gone up even more so. That being said, you can still find some good deals without having felt like it's over charged.

    Friendly service as soon as we walked in. Hostess gave my daughter's lollipops. Also a coloring page and crayons. I ordered eggs over easy with french fries, i ordered my bacon burnt literally lol he understood crispy there is a difference i don't like to eat the fat but whatever still good. My husband ordered an omelette with home fries he enjoyed it. My older daughter orders Choco loco pancakes nutella and bananas. My youngest ordered grille cheese the biggest one i ever seen lol place was clean busy two ppl were helping so i was confused who would take Oder. Finally the man did but he was like rushing us sort of, i mean i know he was busy but we did wait almost 10 minutes to order and did not complain. That's the only reason for the 4 stars.

    Fantastic food, outdated food/product dates putting lives at risk. I give this a decent rating because the food is fantastic, but finding out that at least one if not many of their ingredients are out of date are being served to the public and worse. I worry.

    Really enjoyed the food at this diner. Food was served quick, on point and staff was pretty friendly. I ordered the Milano Panini and it tasted really good, maybe cause I was hungry or whatever the case, I devoured the sandwich quick and fast. My co-worker shared his garlic knots with me, which was good. The diner's menu has a wide selection of Pizzas to Burgers, sandwiches, and popular milkshakes. There's also indoor/outdoor seating, so finding a seat is an easy task. Even though the staff was friendly, they do get a bit pushy when more customers are coming in. Overall, great diner spot

    Terrific diner serving up good portions of tasty food. Great service and owner. My running club and I hit it up for breakfast and drinks after today's NYRR Queens 10K. Did not disappoint and they easily accommodated our large group.

    Happy birthday to me breakfast !!

    I've been to Silver Spoon a few times now, and it's consistently a good experience. It is a classic diner from the food to the ambiance. The food tends to be on the slightly greasy side, but nothing crazy for diner food. Overall, it's pretty good food. The portions are massive, and the prices are fair for a good value. I'm also always impressed by how much variety they offer, and many of the meals give flexible options for the sides. The service is always really good here. They are very friendly, and they treat you like part of the family. Even when it gets busy, I have never felt rushed. I would recommend making a stop by for brunch if you find yourself in the area.

    *writing this review as I'm finishing up the last bite of the crunchy, buttery, perfectly toasted bread with my slightly greasy fingers* I was too lazy to prepare/pack lunch for the day so I ventured out to buy lunch. They have a lunch special menu where with every order you get fries, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, to name a few. I got their grilled chicken panini and side of coleslaw. And o m g. So good. As stated above the two huge slices of bread were smothered with butter and toasted to perfection (technically not panini but it was too good for me to get into technicalities. Sandwiched in between you got grilled chicken, spring mix, tomatoes, and oozy/stretchy cheddar cheeeeeese. The plan was to eat half and save the rest for dinner, but I finished the whole thing in 20 min tops. In addition to their amazing grilled chicken panini, service was snippity, snap too. I ordered at the front cashier and was out the door with my bag of yummy goodness in less than 15 min. Definitely found my go to spot for lunch!

    How is their delivery? I was thinking of ordering a burger using Grubhub, but sometimes food arrives cold with delivery, even though I'm not more than 5 - 7 minutes away.

    You should assume that delivery from any restaurant will not be very hot. Delivery times from any service average 35-50 minutes; the distance from your location is not relevant as the delivery is handled by a third party like Grubhub and ubereats.…

We got the ginger milk pudding. Do think it's a bit pricey ($10) since it's an easy dessert to make but I guess it's all the theatrics. They pour the dessert in front of you and put a sand glass on top. Once sand glass is done, so is the dessert and you can even rest a spoon on top. The dessert is very smooth, barely a solid, and its ginger taste is very strong- which I like. Strong ginger but pairs well with the milk and good amount of sugar. It is a bit spicy but I like it this way. They do have a lot of other desserts as well as savory items on the menu. Intrigued by their savory menu and will definitely come back to try them next time.

Let the countdown begin. I deducted a star after a server placed a porcelain spoon on the pudding right as I was taking my photo. OMGOSH, the Ginger Milk Pudding was absolutely delicious. One word: Scrumptious Snack: Octopus Ball (Takoyaki) Mmm, these bite-sized takoyaki were savory and super tasty. I paid my bill in cash to take advantage of a 2% discount. Bookmark this spot to try!

This classic and favorite dessert spot still has its magic. When we arrived, there was a line on both sides- to sit down and the to go order. Since today is our first visit here but not our friends, we patiently waited for our turn to get a table. Corner table is not bad. We picked one of their best selling items- banana split, 2 scoops of ice cream. Comes with free whipped cream , choice of syrup, rainbow sprinkles a cherry. Extra charge for any added item like any toppings. Price is reasonable for the serving size, it can be shared. The server is ready to give extra cutlery. A glass of water should be asked, not automatically given. There is nothing extraordinary for the taste of the ice cream except the fact that all flavors are home made. The 1930's decors, classic kitchen gadgets, existing old style but refurbished furniture's , is selling popular candies in early 30's and original atm machines version still working are things that make this place extraordinary , an additional things to look forward to and keeping customers coming back. A monopoly Queen's edition board game puts a smile on my face when I find out that they are selling it for a good fee and includes a $20 gift card with it. Right away purchased it. Definitely coming back to try their other popular and hot items. By the way when we are about to leave, there was a long line waiting for seats.

As the city's oldest continuous ice cream parlor, it has been bringing cloud nine to dessert lovers for nearly one hundred years. Unlike modern shops using pre-made bases, this joint makes all of its small batch ice cream, syrups, and incredibly thick whipped cream right on the establishment. Costumers acclaim the original early 1900s ambiance, featuring vintage marble countertops, heavy wood accents, a historic old refrigerator, and antique swivel stools. They are famous for their spectacular, towering sundaes loaded with all your favorite toppings. Digital payments are not an option so first-timers might be surprised. For around $12, guests enjoy a generous two-scoop sundae, though some find it a bit pricey. Cozy limited space, big demand! Weekend wait times may vary.

It took us a while to decide on what to buy partly because we were buying also for our friends. Naturally, we were asked relatedly by at least the different staff if we needed help or if we were ready to order. Each time, they seemed genuinely want to help, and made us feel welcome with their smiles and gentle demeanor. For myself, the pistachio muffin was totally satisfying and I confirm they did not slump on the nuts. The crunchy eclair was a BIG hit with our friends, and the rest is kind of a blur but I know we enjoyed everything we tried. We'd go back without hesitation. I hope they keep up the great work.

The restaurant/bakery is big with lot of seating. Great display of cakes, pastries and breads. Street parking is available. Service: the nicest people.

It comes in cubes so definitely easier to share. CRUNCHY: this is the very must!! It's chocolate mouse inside with layers of other chocolates. Plus with nuts on it. It's like a ferrero but bigger! Price rating: 7/10. It was not expensive a good cake. I always buy cake here for special occasions or even if I am craving cakes. Visit this, its worth it!

It was a bit of a sweet & savory mix, but not strong in either sweet or salty flavors. There was also this persimmon snack that was filled with nuts and other things. It was slightly sweet, very unique, and both paired well as a tea time snack. They're also open until 11:30pm!
