    Renovated area with tables
    Danielle M.

    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.

    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!

    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!

We had dinner there my son and I shared a melt. It was delicious! The Moons Over My Hammy, to be exact! The following evening we traveled home and my husband said he wanted to catch the game with friends. I stayed home and didn't really feel like cooking. While scrolling door dash I saw "The Melt Down" by Dennys. The menu only listed Melts. So I ordered a 3 melts. 1 for myself and 2 kids meal melts. My boys shared one and my daughter had her own. The melts are a nice size! Very filling and also tasty! They came hot and juicy! I highly recommend the Feeling Groovy Melt, so tasty! We had enough to save some for a snack the next day. Popped them in the oven and they were still on point! Great service, fast delivery on door dash's part. The you to the Denny for ensuring our order was correct! This location is always on point.

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!

Had high hopes as the menu was very diverse…read moreand the pictures online looked great, but unfortunately the execution failed on many fronts. The cornbread was hard, like inedible hard. 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.

    Alexa, play "always time" by Miguel…read more Cracker Barrel in Waldorf will always hold a special place for me. It's the kind of spot that makes you imagine Sunday mornings with your person, the two of you settling into a table sharing life, and growing old together without even noticing time passing. I probably won't make that long drive from the city again, but the good memories tied to this place are ones I'll always keep close. I never had any real issues here, aside from one cold cup of coffee and even that feels small now. The wait staff was always warm and friendly, the kind of people who make a place feel familiar. And that little store inside? Still one of my favorite parts. All the cozy, quirky things you don't need but somehow want anyway. That's the charm. Parking is plentiful, and if you go, take that left when you exit. Trust me, it will make life easy. And well, life should be an easy and pleasant journey as possible. Let's get into it! Grandma's breakfast Always! - Blueberry pancakes and eggs with bacon. My little Sunday ritual. The kind of plate that feels like comfort, memory, and a hug all at once. Let the good you've lived settle into your spirit, acknowledge the past with grace, and never look back. Only taking the good memories with me and this is one! Cheers!

    I stopped by Cracker Barrel because I saw what looked like a meal deal advertised, but when I got…read morethere it was more of a "choose three country entrées" option with sides. For about $18 (before tax and tip), you get three selections and two sides, plus biscuits and cornbread ,which is definitely a good value for the quantity of food. I chose the fried chicken, meatloaf, and chicken & dumplings with turnip greens and mashed potatoes. The restaurant was pretty empty, and while the country store area is always charming, the dining room itself felt very cold .....literally. I will say my waitress, Tamara,was amazing. She was incredibly sweet, attentive, and made sure my drinks stayed full. Truly top-tier service. As for the food, it just wasn't good. The fried chicken was crispy but had a strange, almost watery taste. The meatloaf was dry and not appetizing. The chicken & dumplings were the only decent item, but it's hard to mess that up. The greens and mashed potatoes tasted old, and even though the biscuits and cornbread were warm, they tasted like they'd been baked earlier and reheheated. The peach sweet tea was good, though. I usually come to Cracker Barrel for breakfast because their pancakes (with the crispy edges) are good. But lately, even breakfast hasn't tasted as fresh as I remember. It could just be this location, but overall the quality feels like it's declined. The value is there for the portion size, but the freshness and flavor just aren't. I hope it's not the brand overall, because years ago Cracker Barrel tasted hot, fresh, and truly country. This visit just felt old and reheated.

I enjoyed this spot. A great place to eat.
