    I love Silver Diner and this location does not disappoint. From meal options for even the pickiest eater to high-stakes culinary celebrity sightings--this place has it all! I actually had the pleasure of meeting Executive Chef Ype Von Hengst during my visit. For an award-winning chef and Food Network winner, he was incredibly humble and courteous. He truly has a wonderful listening ear, which makes the "local flavor" of this diner feel even more personal. The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is great--I even walked away with a coupon for a complimentary hand-spun shake for my next visit. Come for the menu, but stay for the local hospitality! #enjoygoodpeople

    Renovated area with tables

    Came on a Wednesday morning and they were quite busy which the staff didn't seem prepared for. The hostess when you first enter was pleasant, welcoming, and informative. Our server was very slow. She mentioned how busy the restaurant was and seemed overwhelmed which I don't think needs to be shared with the customer. The manager on duty was making rounds and helping out as best she could so the effort of some of the staff is very much appreciated. The food was great. The kid enjoyed her hotdog with strawberries. My mom had a smash burger with fries- ok, bun was dry. I had a ribeye steak sub add mushrooms with fries- delicious. The restaurant was clean and recently renovated by replacing some of the booths with tables and refreshed all the seating.

    Wifey and I partake on MLK day brunch. The establishment was packed, however we were quickly seated and the service was good considering the volume of people. We opted for brunch and both dishes were absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this Silver Diner if you are in the area.

    Irish coffee is the best !

    Food is always perfect! This is going to be a heavy rotation breakfast spot for me and the Big Spoon. Service is always okay, not perfect but they are honestly always busy. We tend to bring good luck and people flock behind us, never fails. So we always start off good and then it's packed! Ambiance is casual. Waffle is fantastic! Silver Diner is always a WIN!

    James was our server today and he was phenomenal! Spot on perfect service! The food is always fantastic but since Nils left we've been waiting for that service we were once used to, James was amazing!!!

    Bug in salad

    Honestly me and my boyfriend just came here last week everything was great! However today I told my mom we should come and the food was horrible and so was the service. Everything felt very rushed our server didn't greet us just walked to our table with dirty dishes in hand and said "can I get you some drinks" I ordered the same thing I got the other day and it was horrible there was a bug in my salad and their solution was a free entree for next time. Why would I come back? It should have been free this time. And why is the lettuce not being washed? I work in a restaurant that serves salad and we wash our lettuce and as a server I tip off service and I'll just say never again.

    Shrimp and grits

    I had the shrimp and grits recommended by a friend. It was probably one of the best things I ever ate! I was reluctant to try it since I heard it was a tomato base and I usually go for the creamy version, but this was amazing. It gave a type of Louisiana flavor (if you've been you'll know what I'm talking about) than tomato flavor. Absolutely amazing. I ordered take out since I was in a hurry but the inside was decorated nicely like a fifty's diner type of vibe. I definitely will be ordering this dish again. The only criticism I would suggest is that I saw the cooks without a hair net on and my friend mentioned there was hair in her food one time. A hair net would prevent this.

    Meatloaf
    Kysha D.

    Picked up dinner tonight after a long week, so glad I thought of Silver Diner! I'm a foodie & a cook, got the meatloaf w/roasted veggies, corn & mashed potatoes. So good! I didn't have to doctor it up as I ALWAYS do most places. Somebody in that kitchen loves what they do and thank you!

    Corn beef hash, hard fried eggs , bland unseasoned starchy potatoes.

    Decent. Not special. Unlikely to make my regular rotation…read more I drove past this place going back to forth to work and on the outside it looked like a nice establishment. Today I finally visited and was a bit disappointed to see the underwhelming interior where it is strictly carry out and cheap metal guest chairs to wait on while the food is prepared. But it's really about the food right?! Meh. It was very hit and miss. I ordered the (4) sliders with grilled onions. They were slightly charred which was nice, and they were juicy, but they could have been cooked a little more (they were like medium to medium well and I prefer well done - I should note they didn't ask how I preferred my burgers cooked). I also ordered their jumbo fried wings and picked sweet and sassy sauce. The sauce was tasty and the wings had a nice texture, but beyond the sauce the wings had a plain flavor suggesting they didn't season the wings before frying and then coating them with sauce. Overall the food was solid but not awe inspiring. I was less impressed with their cakes. I ordered a strawberry slice and a carrot cake. The carrot cake was moist and wasn't bad at all. I've had much better, but it was edible and satisfied my sweet tooth for the day. The strawberry cake however was dry and grainy. Perhaps it was old. It was definitely a waste of $7.99! On the plus side the employee was friendly and nice, so there's that!

The steak and cheese featured soggy bread with a side of limp lukewarm fries, and the jerk chicken was a poor imitation of jerk flavor, as the best word I could use to describe it was lifeless. On the bright side, the employee was friendly and the food was ready on time, so at least there was that. Unfortunately, this was a total miss so my first time will also be my last time.

So my fiance tells me to get dressed and let's go get some good food. The ambiance was lovely. I do love having a reason to dress nice and it felt romantic. Even in a room with other tables and people, it wasn't overly crowded. It was extra nice to have our server take notice of the effort I put in. I wish I knew her name because I would absolutely share and recommend her 100%. She, plus the food, really cheered me up that day and that's kind of rare. It's rare to go somewhere new and fully have your spirits lifted. We tried the crab balls, the surf and turf with steak, added scallops and some sides. It was so good. The seafood, the steak, everything was cooked to perfection. It was very filling too. I think my favorite side was the rice. I did like the macaroni but I was unexpectedly blown away by the rice. I cannot wait to go back and share the experience with my daughter. I was eyeing the lamb and from how tender the steak turned out, I will definitely order the lamb next time.

Visit #1: Our bill was mixed up with another table. A basic, embarrassing mistake that set the tone for what was to come. Visit #2: We couldn't even get a table. No explanation, no apology -- just turned away. Visit #3 -- the final straw: My husband called ahead and made a reservation. When we arrived, the hostess flat-out denied ever receiving it, then casually assumed we'd "be there in a few minutes" -- as if she knew exactly who we were and what had happened. That's not a system glitch, that's negligence. What made it so much worse? Not a single apology. Instead, we were met with outright rudeness from the staff. And the food? Horrible. Not "disappointing" -- genuinely bad. To top it off, the restaurant has a noticeable unpleasant odor that made it impossible to enjoy even being inside. This place has had every opportunity to make things right and has failed spectacularly each time. The staff is rude, disorganized, and completely indifferent to customer experience. Save your evening and go literally anywhere else.
