    The location is very new with a large parking lot, but getting in and out of it can be a little confusing. It's not entirely two-way. Leaving takes you through a slightly confusing one way loop. Nevertheless, twas the evening before the blizzard of 2026, and the restaurant was mostly empty. I started with the Chunky Monkey Banana milkshake which was.. well, disappointing. Almost entirely liquidity. Not enough solids. Way too much milk. Disappointed I also had a blood orange sunset, which was good, refreshing, sort of like a reverse Tequila Sunset. The meatloaf itself was good but the pate was hit or miss. There wasn't much meat loaf, mostly mashed potatoes, string onions, and corn. I felt for the price the meatloaf serving size was just not quite enough. It seemed like it was deliberately hidden in there. I was expecting something more. The Kickin Crab and Corn Chowder, sans description, was also..unexpected. It was an option with the meatloaf and contained a lot of pepper. Black pepper. Not the ... Chesapeake Favorite "Kickin" expectation.. We had a mimosa, good, a little weak. Overall, it's an ok place to grab a meal, the menu has many options, they have milkshakes and martinis of sorts, not a full bar, unfortunately, you can't get milkshakes with alcohol, which I think is a tremendous hole in their menu, but I found everything to just be a little rough around the edges. Leaving.. What sealed the deal was that after all that, instead of staying to have drinks, etc. we.. decided to go to a different restaurant for something more.

    Silver Diner is a family favorite. We stopped in after my daughter's track meet and our server must have been a bit busy because the bartender took our whole order when he original came for drinks. I don't believes he gave his name but he had curly hair and glasses. This was probably one of the best service received during my visit to Silver Diner. We tried the new smoky bacon with my tried and true French toast. I love the touch of added strawberries. Needless to say, my plate was CLEAN. So good I almost want to come back for dinner.

    Always a good time at the Silver Diner! We've ordered takeout from here several times and they never disappoint with the amount of attention to detail. Food is always delicious and fresh, and service is always friendly. Love that they're always having some kind of community event as well!

    This is a newer silver diner. Plenty of parking. You get sat immediately and the staff is quick and friendly. Our waiter was able to accommodate all of our requests. Our food came out exactly as requested.

    This was our second visit and we had are same server Nicole again!!! As usual she was amazing despite the businessness of Easter Sunday. We still recieved great service. I loved the maple chicken sausage. Can't wait for my next visit.

    Patty Melt Chicken

    Walked in around 11 for brunch and the place was quite busy, but luckily got seated right away without any wait. The menu was handed over quickly, and the waiter came by fast to take my order. went with the chicken melt (with some customization) and the lamb shakshuka. The food arrived quickly and was delicious. The shakshuka had really good flavor and was served with soft naan, which paired perfectly. The chicken melt came on rye bread and was extra crispy -- a nice touch. Overall, tasty food with quick service despite the rush.

    Olivia, our server, was very welcoming and friendly to us. She was very kind to my boys with autism, and she was an attentive server, refilling drinks without asking, and coming by to check on us after the food was brought out. We chatted a bit and learned she drives from Burke to this South Riding location, and this isn't even her FT job. I told her how the restaurant sits on the very spot where my old employer and office used to be (M.C. Dean)! We always have a great experience here; even though it's not the closest one to our house, it's worth the drive. Plus, a full bar is a nice bonus too! Thank you, Olivia, for your personable service!

    So glad a Silver Diner opened up closer to home! Plenty of parking is available. Upon entering, the hostess was very kind and we were seated in a timely manner. The restaurant is clean and organized. Restrooms in the back are also clean. Our server was kind and helpful. We enjoyed our meal, each dish was flavorful and well seasoned. Nothing was overly salty or too greasy. Portions are generous as well. Silver Diner is nostalgic for me, reminds me of my High School days. Their menu has definitely changed but I enjoyed what they offered back then and now. The best part of visits to Silver Diner, has always been the company and good conversations. Can't wait to come again :D

They are located minutes away from Fair Oaks Mall, with plenty of parking. They are open for breakfast until late for dine-in, carryout and delivery. When we walked in for breakfast, the place was busy, but we got seated right away. The tables had those mini jukebox machine. It's a 50's diner theme, except for staff's uniform. The staff was friendly but not as attentive especially once we had our food. Mocha Banana Cold Brew - Caramelized banana mix, chocolate, vanilla extract, milk, cold oat foam. Way too sweet for me! What was I thinking?! I ended up ordering a plain cold brew and mixed most of it to the drink to tame the sweetness. Other than this, it was a nice drink. Fried Pickle-Brined Chicken & Waffle - Breaded boneless chicken (halal), pecan waffle, cherry pepper honey, sausage gravy and syrup. Chicken was nice and tender. Chicken & Waffle is all about that combo taste of sweet and savory! Good dish! (Found in the Every Day Brunch section) Oaxaca (wah-haw-kah) - Oaxaca-black bean salsa, pepper jack, salsa roja, cilantro, guacamole, whole wheat toast. I like this dish very much. It was flavorful! (Found in the Farm-Fresh Omelets section).

I normally try to find any way possible to compliment…read moreand support a business, but very unfortunately dinner this evening really missed the mark in terms of food quality. The bright spot was our pleasant and knowledgeable waitress! I ordered the fish and chips - now I know that the Silver Diner is not a seafood restaurant, but the reality in my opinion is that fish and chips is an easy dish to make. I have enjoyed fish and chips at more restaurants than I can count, including some of the world's finest seafood on a recent trip to Iceland. My fish at the Silver Diner had the thickest and most dense breading that I have ever had! It was terrible to me. There was nothing about the breading that was light - it was way too thick, too glutinous, and the fish was substantially overcooked to the point of being dry. The fish and chips were served with a cup of chicken soup which was mediocre at best - under seasoned. We did start dinner with an appetizer of fried shrimp seasoned with a bit of Old Bay. It actually tasted very good but again the shrimp were very sadly overcooked which made them tough and chewy. So the food is definitely not for me, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with a discerning taste. I also consider the food here very expensive relative to some other nearby restaurants that provide some truly great food at a much better price point.

The ingredients were fresh and much better than you would get at a chain restaurant. The loaded fries were filling and delicious too!

And we needed something quick as traveling with a baby equals time crunch. So let's get to it. There's a small parking lot and seating inside and out (picnic style tables). I got sliders and my significant other got a personalized burger. In addition we also got chili cheese fries and tater tots. We had to get this to go so I was quite happy with the temperature and taste when we got home. Surprisingly all the food maintained its quality and warmth on a 20 min ride. We both really enjoyed the burgers and I was surprised by the sliders. Most sliders don't fill me and I feel it's always missing something. These mini burgers were super filling and felt like I didn't have to miss eating a big burger. We both enjoyed our sides. I think my significant other heated up the fries later in the evening and said it was still pretty good. I myself reheated my one mini burger I had left and it still tasted like I just got it recently. Hoping to visit again and try more items when I can.
