    Food is excellent but unfortunately, long delays and inconsistent service are terrible at this location. I've been here several times. I've never experienced service this bad. The server did not ask about my order. Stop back in the meantime got me the wrong size to go container took too long with my drinks after my espresso came out right away. I've been to other silver diners before I never had this poor service. Bathroom was average convenience. Parking lot was good. Took a long time to get the check and check out.

    Love a good silver diner! This location was good, with quick service and recommendations. The food was very tasteful and delicious. Though it was busy we were able to sit in a good booth.

    Silver diner always seems to be a hit or miss for me. I think I've cracked the formula for myself though. Whenever I go now I always get the tomato basil soup and so far I've been happy. This time I also got the bruschetta, I didn't care for the cheese it came with but the rest was delicious. I will note that it's usually loud and difficult to get ahold of somebody when you need them.

    The best part of this visit was the service. Samir did an awesome job taking care of my table. I was seated quickly and had high hopes. The diner has a cool retro interior and was well staffed. I ordered and quickly had my shake, I got the S'mores flavored one and it was tasty. I got the Smash Burger and it was very disappointing. First off, it's not a smash burger. If it was, they need to do a better job of training the kitchen how to smash it. It was just a small burger. The bun was way too dense, and the fries were limp and undercooked. I left about half my meal on the plate. Great service, cool venue, subpar food.

    We arrived 15 minutes before closing, and all we wanted was a little dessert. Instead of telling us to kick rocks, they sat us at the counter and sated my late night sweet tooth. The chocolate cake was a little on the sweet side, but beggars can't be choosers when it's close to midnight. 5 stars for friendliness and service. We were in and out in 11 minutes flat, and back in our car 4 minutes before closing. Incredible.

    Came here for dinner one night and it was pretty quiet. There were a lot of open tables. Our waiter was probably below average we had to ask for a lot of things, including silverware, water, the check, etc.. I thought the food was also very average and I thought I could make a better sandwich at home. Not sure I would want to come back again.

    It was my first time at Silver Diner, recommended by a friend. The place was pretty packed during brunch and quite noisy with people chatting and a baby crying. After we were seated, no one came by with water or menus for the first 10 minutes, which was a bit frustrating. The food, however, was not what I expected from a typical diner--it was surprisingly healthy, local, and fresh. I especially enjoyed the fruit; the strawberries were sweet, better than what you usually find at grocery stores.

    I would just like to start with this is 100% my bad. I hail from New Jersey... The land of diners... So I went into this diner just ordering my usual not thinking much of it. That was until I got the bill and saw that two eggs bacon and breakfast potatoes with a side of fruit cost $19 lol. And that wasn't including tip yet. In Jersey that would've been an $8 breakfast, maybe $10. I'm not knocking the establishment, I'm more so knocking my naïvety not realizing where I was and that things are just not priced normally in the area haha. So that's not saying I'll never come back. The atmosphere was great, the staff was even better, and the food was delicious! I'll just be more prepared with my wallet next time. So word to the wise if you're coming from out of town... Remember where you are lol. Do as I say not as I do lol. Gotta love DC. Thank you, Silver Diner for the delicious breakfast!

    Great ingredients, great vibe, and great staff. Location was very convenient to my hotel. Love the vintage feel. Customer service was outstanding. Don't miss out on this gem.

    The service was okay. The food was fair. There wasn't anything overwhelming or delicious about it.

    For the longest time, my son refused to come to Silver Diner. Maybe it was the service or the food but now he is older, his tastes are much more refind & adult-like. Don't get me wrong, he still likes some kids foods but he is appreciating what the adults eat. That's good and bad. Good that he is trying new and more complex meals but bad, it's more expensive. We were greeted and seated within a couple minutes. The server was attentive and efficient with our drinks (water) & our order. This evening, my son iis having Surf & Turf (Scallops & Tenderloin medallions). I am having the Flat Iron Steak. Mine came with a soup or salad and I opted with the salad. When it came out it had tomatoes along with different greens, croutons, parm cheese and caesar dressing. It was good. Our food came out later. The Flat Iron steak was ordered medium rare but it was more rare. I won't complain cause at least it isn't over cooked. See photo. I opted out of bleu cheese butter. The steak was seasoned well on the outside. The mash potatoes, spinach and heavenly fried onions were delicious. My son's tenderloins were a bit overcooked (ordered medium rare but it was more medium-medium well). They were still good. He ate it without fuss. The scallops were not cooked enough so they were on the rare side which was disappointing and tasted fishy. Oh well. He loved the fries and spinach. Overall, the items on the menus are more expensive and fancier than traditional diners, but Silver Diner isn't a normal diner. It's got upscale items and of higher quality. The execution of the food still needs to improve but the service has improved. We'll be back...

    Food is fresh from the farm, and tastes like it. Everything was very well prepared and appealing. A bit pricey, but worth it.

All of our eggs were cooked to perfection, the hash browns had the perfect crisp, and most notably - their fries?! That crunch and potato/batter ratio was chef's kiss! Note: you can sub the salad for fruits which we both did for our Benedicts, pic not shown I would love to give this place 5 stars, but unfortunately, the service was quite slow. I ran out of water so I tried to catch the eye of every single staff member there, raising my hand, and absolutely no one looked my way. Our server eventually brought food to the table next to us so I was able to flag her down. Other than that, the place was cute and I'd come again!

    2 out of 3 isn't bad, but it's not great, either…read more Like other diners here in NYC and elsewhere, Carnegie has a huge menu and serves generous portions at appropriate prices. For example, yesterday, I had their Peter's Special, a sandwich made from 1/2 lb of pastrami and 1/2 lb of corned beef. Except that it's not "a" sandwich, but three, all on delicious rye bread, each with its own pickle, and a small helping of slaw, sauerkraut, and a major pile of salad. It was my lunch yesterday; the remaining two sandwiches are my lunch today and tomorrow. That's three meals for $30, which, to me, is a reasonable price. The problem was that the more they do to create the food, the less flavorful it is. For example, on another recent visit, I had their Country Style Omelet. Again, it was huge and contained everything that goes into a great omelet. Except, there wasn't a lot of flavor. And that seems to be the theme. I grabbed a slice of their 24-layer cake and, again, big but not much taste beyond sweetness. If you crave a lot of food, then this might be the spot for you. However, if you prefer less and more, smaller portions with better, more nuanced flavor, then maybe try one of the other nearby restaurants.

As soon as we entered, General Manager Sam welcomed us like old friends. After we were seated, my wife asked if he had previously worked at The Dabney, and sure enough, that's where we recognized him from. It was great catching up as he shared what he'd been doing since then and how his dream had always been to open his own restaurant. Seeing that dream come to life made the evening feel even more special. The restaurant was busy (definitely make reservations), but we were able to enjoy cocktails while we waited for our table. My Grey Goose martini with bleu cheese olives was phenomenal and set the tone for the rest of the meal. We started with the Bison Tartare and the Ceviche. The bison tartare was leaner than traditional beef tartare, and the crispy chips added the perfect savory crunch. The ceviche was incredibly fresh and bright. For our entrées, I had the ribeye while my wife ordered the Dory. The ribeye was cooked perfectly--juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. My wife couldn't stop talking about how buttery and delicious the fish was. To finish the evening, we ordered the 100-Year Port Flight featuring 10-, 20-, 30-, and 40-year ports. Vertical tastings are such a fun way to experience how a wine evolves over time. The 40-year was absolutely outstanding, and the 20-year was another favorite. The 10-year was enjoyable but still showed its youthful character compared to the older vintages. The atmosphere strikes a nice balance between upscale and relaxed. The main dining room can feel a little tight when the restaurant is full, while the bar area has a few TVs for anyone wanting to catch a game. One thoughtful touch that stood out was the women's restroom being stocked with amenities like hair ties and hair clips. We noticed they also offer a tasting menu, and after this experience, that's already on our list for our next visit. Between the outstanding hospitality, exceptional food, excellent cocktails, and welcoming atmosphere, Evelyn Rose absolutely earned five stars.
