I have been in Falls Church for the last week and a half for a business trip. Since being here, I've gone to Silver Diner three times! Part of this is due to the solid food, but I have to give a special shoutout to our waiter Naren. He is so attentive and helpful with menu suggestions, as well as a very kind man who seems to care about his customers. Next time I come back to NoVa, I will make sure to stop at Silver Diner again. You can't beat the hospitality and service! read more

The food and wine selections were good my friends ordered New! Tuna Poke Bowl which looked delicious, Southwest Turkey with fries, Veg New! Beyond Meat Ciabatta Smash Burger in lettuce wrap with side salad, and Lemony Chickpea Hummus & Cauliflower Pita. All looked good and everyone loved it. But the pita did not taste like cauliflower at all, just bread. The place was packed but 3 different staff came out to explain that they had changed vendors for the pita and it is vegan, gluten free and cauliflower. It's a nice diner with quick and clean service. read more

We loved this place! Excellent food and excellent service! Old fashioned diner atmosphere but with healthy delicious food options. I ordered off of a seasonal insert menu that had a fresh vegetarian angel hair pasta dish, and I was able to add grilled shrimp to it. We all enjoyed our meals and our drinks. Highly recommend you give this place a try--especially if you are staying at the Homewood Suites Hotel, since you are able to walk across the parking lot to go here. read more

Silver Diner is one of our breakfast/brunch staples in the area. You usually can count on good food and service. Well Usually you can. At this location the service was so-so. The food was good though and the traditional diner atmosphere was alive and well. For breakfast if you are limited in options, this is a safe bet. read more

Stumbled upon this spot after my son's appointment and him craving for a patty melt. A 50s style feel with a small jukebox placed at every booth. For $0.25, you can choose from a small select playlist ranging from 50s to current hits. The service was fast and friendly and the food was prepared perfectly to order. My son really enjoyed his meal and listening to some oldies. He is already asking to return! Enjoy! read more

A solid diner experience in the Merrifeld area. There were a lot of cute aesthetic details, such as the jukebox, dining booths, and sleek retro design. The food was alright, and the service was quick. A great option if you want to feel a bit nostalgic! read more

Born and raised in this area and never had an issue, but Anna was so rude. I've never been so rushed, especially when my family was mid conversation. When we weren't ready to close out yet and asked for a physical receipt to take more of our time, she completely stopped interacting with us. But regardless always love the food and normally love coming here. Also usually not busy. read more

I've come to silver diner since I was child along with my father. I was sad they didn't have the chocolate banana French toast that we used to get. However, this time I decided to try the Philly omelet with potatoes and a side of fruit for some sweetness. I was not disappointed. The omelet was amazing and the halal ribeye it was made with was well seasoned. I was surprised when I found mushrooms hidden in their which added a little saltiness. Everything went well with my piping hot coffee read more

The beginning of this dining experience did not start off very well. First it took a while to get our order in and waited a while for our food but eventually we got it. My son got the tomato bisque. I didn't even know he knew what it was. He said it was good but not as good as Medieval Times!? ‍ He got his soup early. I didn't get my soup & side til he got his main course. The Yukon Gold mashed potatoes were fair but could have used some more flavor via butter or bacon! The crab and corn chowder was flavorful but not much crab (more crab juice) and a lot of corn. There was a hint of spice but the crab meat was missing. My son's flat iron steak (ordered medium rare) looked great with bleu cheese and butter topping, side of yukon gold mashed taters, fried crispy onion strings & sautèd spinach with garlic. When my son cut open the steak it was grey. Over cooked. Medium well. I had to alert our server. He showed it to the manager who showed it to the head chef. He made a face and shook his head. After 8 mins, my son got a new one with an apology from the server & manager and a coupon for a free entree next time. He cut it open and red/pink juice spilled out. It was a perfect medium rare. He ate the entire steak. He said it was juicy and flavorful. We also noticed (we had a good view of the kitchen & line) that the head chef cooked the steak. So what started off as a swing & miss was made up with a home run. read more

Ordered the cheese omelette dish. It was barely warm. The home fries were bland. They offered to reheat and I declined. Should have offered to make a new dish. Will never return. read more

Silver diner continues to be our lunch spot. Their healthy section of the menu has a good variety of protein, salad, and sandwich selection. The lemon chicken piccata was flavorful. Portion size was on the smaller end, we ordered dessert to fill up our tummy. Service was fast, given lunch time on weekdays, there were not a lot of people to start with. The restaurant is clean, each table has a real juke box for customers to play music the old way. Will come again! read more

Service was good, Ambiance, very noisy but tolerable. Food, what a let down. This had been one of our favorites but we hadn't been in a while. My meal, the Smash burger, they hype the farm the meat is sorted from then apparently give it to a cook that has no idea how to season food. Also, the cheese is supposed to compliment the burger, not smother it. Sweetwatr makes a superior burger at about the same price point and Freddy's makes a better smash burger at half the price. My wife's omelet was some sort of culinary crime. Although cooked on a flat top there was no air whipped into them so they were flat and rubbery. Honestly Waffle House makes a fluffier omelet. What a shame to treat premium ingredients with such disrespect, no pride,love or care in the food. At these prices it was a disappointment. read more

A large expansive menu that promises a lot but under delivers. It tries to set itself apart from other diners with some unique dishes but nothing really stood out. The taste of all of the dishes we ordered was sub-par, under-seasoned and uninteresting. The waiter encouraged us to try a Dubai Chocolate milkshake that just tasted like a regular milkshake. read more

I ordered the fish and chips for pickup. The wait time was 30 minutes, which was no problem at all. My order was ready as promised, and I asked for malt vinegar, which they promptly provided. You can see from my photo that this is a very substantial meal. Three fillets, a full Caesar salad, a small side of coleslaw, and a small portion of fries. The fish was absolutely outstanding, as was the Caesar salad. The coleslaw was so small that they shouldn't have bothered. The fries were pathetic, a cold soggy mess. My recommendation: This entree is worth ordering, however, substitute the vegetables for the fries and choose something other than the coke slaw. read more

We had a delicious breakfast at Silver Diner. This restaurant is what we describe as an old school all American diner! Menu has all the items we love that brings us into a "vacation mode" feeling. There is abundant parking. Abundant seating indoor and outdoor as well. Food portions are generous. Taste was to our liking. Not too buttery, not too raw. California Omelette was very good. Country griddle had a lot of flavor in it. Service was on point. Our waitress was there when we needed something. Check this restaurant out if you are in this general area. You will not be disappointed. read more

This review is for the outdoor service. Mind you, the food here is truly wonderful--lots of organic and healthy delicious choices. The food here could easily be served at any high-end restaurant. My issue is with the outside seating service. Because of the beautiful summer weather, I really like to eat outside whenever possible. Twice now we have eaten outside. Each time the servers were not that aware of the menu items or pricing. Additionally, the service can be a bit poor. For example, this last time our entrées came out to us together, as they should. No sooner we picked up our forks a waitress brought out our dessert. We looked puzzled and the waitress looked at us and said: "Too soon?" We answered: Yes! We told the original waitress we ordered our food from about the issue. We wanted to make sure she knew that we still wanted our dessert, but after we ate our main entrées. She seemed puzzled and unconcerned. Another item that is a little puzzling is the lack of lighting as the sun goes down. As the night got dark we asked the waitress if she could have the string lights put on. The waitress left, came back, and said the manager told her they were broken. Too bad because it's quite cute when the lights are on. Having said all this, I may not eat outside again, but I will definitely be back for their wonderful food. In the past, the inside staff have been wonderful. read more

Roach infested! On an evening after work and with my family. The server was decent, but after dirty glasses and swapped glasses.

Stopped in here for a quick lunch. Ordered the double pickle brined chicken sandwich with coleslaw and fries. The sandwich arrived with 2 nice size chicken pieces. I thought it was bland and needed more flavor. The arugula was a nice touch. The fries were shoestring type with a little seasoning. The coleslaw I did not like. It was a creamy based slaw with roasted corn. I also thought it was bland. read more

Not what I've come to expect from SD. I should have suspected my omelet would be room temperature, given how long it took to be served. It likely sat on a shelf for 10 minutes before my inattentive waitress bothered to serve it. Funny how the only time I had something to say to the question "How is everything?" the question was never asked. My coffee cup was cold and empty long before I was offered a refill. I might have been better off at IHOP on this occasion, at 1/3 the price. read more

I immediately enjoyed the environment. But as time went on the environment change was back and forth. The Turkey Burger was good. Not the best first experience. But adequate enough to go back. read more

I love this place for its convenience and consistency. I've never had a problem. Service was a little slow today but overall mostly positive experiences. I've had many dishes from the menu to include breakfast lunch and diner. One suggestion I have is if your entire table is drinking water, please bring a carafe of water versus letting everyone's cup stay dry. Some of my favorites include the Belgian waffle (w/no powdered sugar) with the local pork sausage and the crab cake brunch. I also love their mimosas. read more

I ordered their featured dish, the sous vide short rib. I was served beef medallions (and not that many) buried under a mound of dried onions. Not even with mashed potatoes. Some had crispy edges which meant that they were not sous vide. I Love short rib and I have had short rib at many restaurants - and I know this this was not short rib. A waste of my $27. read more

It's June, six months later, and we are back! This time Angie is our server. We were greeted upon entry by a gentleman that appeared to be the manager, he immediately began by joking with us and another "regular" customer, it was fun! This time I am going to have the Organic Bison Huevos Rancheros and my wife is having Avocado Toast with Salmon. The menu here looks great! Huevos Rancheros was excellent, not the Huevos Rancheros I grew up with, but great all the same. The bison was VERY lean but the chorizo evened it out. The mix of flavors were very good ant the texture of the fried whole wheat tortilla was great! The avacado toast was likewise, excellent! Another wonderful visit! read more

We waited 10 minutes and had to ask a passing by waitress for something to drink because our person didn't come and greet us. She advised that she would go get out waitress. The food must have sat to wait note sausage because they were the only thing hot on plate. The butter did not melt because the waffles were cool. We just asked for to-go boxes and the bill so we could leave. The booth tables are tight and not comfortable. read more

Food was marginal and the service was rather slow. I ordered Fish & Chips. fries were room temperature and the fish was hard and overcooked. My husband's meal came out a few minutes later and his fries were fresh and hot. Go figure. We were last at this Silver Diner in February-decided to stop in for lunch. At that time I ordered the shrimp with ancient grains. I had it before and enjoyed it very much. During the February visit it was awful. The Salad had the appearance of a dish that had been sitting out on display for hours...the absolute opposite of fresh. Terrible. We decided to try again today, 18 June. We are done. wasn't worth i.There are too many competing restaurants to take a chance on another bad meal. read more

Great for a quick lunch. Love the local produce and variety of options! If you want to be healthy you can or if you want a burger and shake this is also the place! I had soup and half sandwich. Great deal and very tasty. read more

The staff sat us down immediately. Our food took about 20 mins to come out. The bruschetta tasted divine. I wish there was more of it because the ratio wasn't enough for the toast. The power breakfast definitely gave me the boost I needed. It definitely isn't enough you are a hungry person. This place is affordable and serves all day brunch. The ambiance was more family-friendly and just quaint. read more

I ordered the vegan cauliflower curry dish. I asked for my cauliflower to be steamed instead of flash fried. The server said the chef would accommodate but my food was so greasy and disgusting I couldn't enjoy it and gave it to my husband. The flavor was good but I couldn't stomach how sloppy, greasy it was. I wish he would have just said they couldn't steam the cauliflower instead of serving me greasy slop, I would have ordered something else. read more

So... I came here on a random search. I had a doctors appointment in the surrounding area, had some time before my next obligation so I stopped here for wifi and food with my MacBook. Arriving was fine, my seating was fine. As far as March 2022 Covid regulations go, employees did wear masks throughout the establishment. The service.. was decent. I didn't lack anything, it was just difficult at times at reach my waiter when I did want something (like a new straw because.. there's are paper. :), or napkins because for some reason I was only given 1 at a time) - maybe because I came by myself? I'm not sure. So to the food, it was below average. I ordered an iced coffee, a water, the western omelette and a side of bacon (all pictured below), and I honestly could've made better food at my house. My total was about $24 and... yea, I could've/should've put that in the gas tank. It was fine for what it was - a quick meal & a quick wifi hunt. read more

Very consistent in terms of good quality. A great option for groups where everyone wants something different

Took my parents here for lunch and was pleased with the healthier food options offered. It's not the diner of the past as the average main dish looked to be around $18-$20. Surprisingly, tables offered a bottle of "organic ketchup"! My husband ordered the "Warm roasted local veggie salad." He loves beets and Brussels sprouts. Sadly, it didn't come with the pecans or dried apricots as advertised but most disappointing was discovering the veggies were all boiled and cold, not roasted or warm. (Insert sad face emoji) On the flip side, I tried the plant forward Thai cauliflower quinoa pasta. It was very tasty! My folks enjoyed a burger and the cod. While the cod was done well, we found the accompanying quinoa to be a bit more salty than we expected. Otherwise the plate presentations were all lovely and appetizing. Again, it's not the diner of old and worth a try. read more

Usually a very pleasant experience until we recently got a to go order. Not only did this location fill the order incorrectly (my wife ordered her sandwich on white bread and they gave her a sandwich on wheat bread) but my wife also found a long black hair in her sandwich. (My wife's hair is light brown and was wrapped at the time). This is truly disgusting and we have lost all trust in this location. Will not be returning. read more
