((me)) apple pie-stuffed french toast + scrambled eggs + pork sausage links + home fries: the french toast was the star of the show (my plate), but the sides were a welcome addition. this might be a limited edition/seasonal dish, so i'll be getting it again soon.

Lackluster Nothing stood out about this place. There was no one in the place but service was slow. Food was blah. read more

I've been here before but to the one on the D.C. Harbor which was great! This one, not to sure! Another place that shouldn't serve grits if they don't know how to make them! Sent them back and my server even agreed they looked bad! They were lumpy and flavorless! I visit this area all the time. It's a-shame that Marie's food is better. Guess I'll make that my breakfast spot instead. read more

This was officially my first Silver Diner experience. I had read that this diner In Waldorf had made changes to their menu so this made me curious. All I can say is wow the food is good. Oh and they have a bar if you need it . I decided to choose from side of the menu and had the Thai roasted cauliflower quinoa pasta dish. This dish has roasted butternut squash, scallions, pistachios, corn etc with a slightly spicy sauce that gave it a kick and added garlic spinach with lemon on the side. Also we ordered meat loaf, mashed potatoes with gravy, broccolini with turkey chili. They've acquired a more organic and grass fed approach to their food. The dishes were large portions as though you were at home. The service was excellent no issues at all. The atmosphere was a modern take on a diner like diner 2.0 One thing I can say is that it was so clean. I'm definitely going back. read more

This has become one of our favorite restaurants in the area. Our waitress Jesse is awesome just the food and drinks were. The flat iron steak I had was grilled to perfection. We will be coming back again and again. read more

Our server Jasmine was great! Will come again! The corned beef hash was good but the onions could've been chopped more and the peppers could have been cooked more. read more

I'm a huge fan of Silver Diner! I've been to the location in Clarendon, McLean, Reston, and Springfield. This is my second recent visit to the Silver Diner in Waldorf! COVID-19 DINING "in" EXPERIENCE: We walked up about 1pm today . There was no line and there was hand sanitizer at the entrance. I ordered a hot chocolate which was decent. For my brunch, I had the steak and eggs! I opted for the egg whites. I traded in my biscuit for a pancake. I love the home fries that come with the meal! I felt very safe. Masks are required. The tables were socially distanced. On the table, there was a detailed card of the steps Silver Diner takes to ensure the restaurant is clean and to comply with CDC cleanliness standard. Our server was attentive and responsive. read more

There was BROKEN GLASS mixed in with my sautéed spinach! The presentation and taste was off today, but I decided to continue to eat until I saw and felt the broken glass! I've given this establishment way too many chances and today was the last straw. Their customer service has gone down over the years and sadly so has the preparation for food. read more

We stopped in for a Sunday brunch at Silver Diner in Waldorf. The wait time was about 25 minutes for 2 people. The place was busy! But once we were seated, the service was fast. Our server, Maggie, was friendly and polite. We ordered milkshakes, an omelette and pancakes. The Oreo milkshake was amazing! The pancakes were also delicious. My husband thought the omelette was fine. Overall, we were pleased with the food and the service. The restaurant was nicely decorated to look like an old fashioned diner, and they even had juke boxes on the tables. I recommend checking out Silver Diner. read more

I love this place, that is when the food is hot, fresh, and tasteful. Delivery is spotty though. Sometimes it's the best and others not so great upon notifying management sometimes you get your issue taken care of and others when you are told sorry that happened or sorry it wasn't to your liking and that just doesn't cut it. Particularly this crab cake sandwich that is missing the crab aspect... and taste like it was dipped in a very sweet sauce... though they didn't miss the coleslaw this time... read more

I ordered a mimosa. It came with an older strawberry. I also ordered the summer cod. It had a strong fishy smell. The pomegranates on the quinoa were a nuisance. I enjoyed the asparagus very much. My fiend enjoyed the bruschetta. But she did not like the Turkey chili because it didn't have enough meat. She absolutely loved the no-hito. Our server Jiji was great!!! read more

This evening, my daughter, grandson, and I came to eat dinner at your Waldorf, MD, location. I frequent this location often, so I was surprised at the lack of good customer service this evening. The server, Chanel D, did not correctly take down my order or my daughters. We brought this to the server's attention, and she agreed to exchange my daughter's meal. The second time the server bought the meal, it did not have the requested seasoning; again, we brought this to the server's attention and asked for a manager. When we asked the server about the season, she indicated she would come back with it momently; however, we observed her talking with her colleagues before departing from behind the counter to take another customer's order. This lack of communication was disappointing and made us feel neglected. After a while, a manager came over to our table, and we explained our displeasure with the lack of attention from our server and that we did not get what we initially ordered. The manager apologized and informed us that the particular season we'd enjoyed for many years was no longer being offered. So, we again expressed concern that the server never returned to our table to inform us, and now my daughter's food was lukewarm. Additionally, I ordered a Caesar salad with salmon and asked for two side orders of avocado; although the salmon and salad were delicious, I did not receive the avocado that I ordered. Although I am grateful I was not charged and it was removed from my ticket, I am deeply disappointed with this dining experience. The manger did apologized, indicated she would take 10 percent from our check, and offered a substitute seasoning, which my daughter accepted. Afterward, I asked her if we would receive a courtesy 110 percent card. She indicated we would not, as this is at the manager's discretion. I was puzzled since I have frequented Silver Diner since 2013 (first time at your Tysons Corner Location in Virginia and now Waldorf, MD),and was unaware that Silver Diner's policy changed. Nevertheless, later, when the server returned, I requested our check as we were ready to depart after this unpleasant dining experience. The server, another server, and the manager conversed for several minutes before she bought over our ticket. I found this to be disrespectful and unacceptable. As a result, I did not give the server at the time as it usually is my custom to tip. Again, my daughter Kantrelle and I are both members of your club, although we have frequented your restaurant on many occasions before our membership to receive this kind of service. I wonder if we should continue to patronize this particular location. read more

Silver Diner - Receipt - New American Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

NEGATIVE 5 STARS This is the most disgusting meal I've had all year. I ordered take out from the parking lot and grabbed my order 10 minutes later. My "watermelon cucumber mint soda" was completely flat, sausage gravy was without sausage and taste like unseasoned flour and water. The chicken looked nothing like the image online and was unseasoned and raw in the center. Although my waffle wasn't terrible the overall experience was horrid. I warn you in advance please do not patronize this establishment (or at least this location) read more

Te'a was an excellent server! The food was delicious and very fresh! I highly recommend Silver Diner!

We're new (sort-of) to the area and happened to come across this restaurant when looking for a breakfast place near our doctors office. And what a hidden gem! From the moment you walk in you're taken back to an old-school diner. Love the environment, the food and the quick service. BIG James was our server and he was so kind and welcoming and made sure to check in on us throughout our meal. His hospitality and overall friendliness was so appreciated! This place will be our new go-to spot for appointments in the area. Thank you again BIG James! :) read more

Silver Diner - Shrimp and grits with home fries - New American Near Me - Waldorf, Maryland

Very cool diner with a bar. Enjoyed my mimosa and shrimp and grits. Great weekend specials. Bartender was lack luster. The guy at the bar on the other hand was extremely friendly. He said he's there almost every morning read more

The menu is robust and has something for everyone. Not your typical diner fare. The atmosphere is typical diner with juke boxes and booths. Service was great and the staff friendly. Food was mediocre in taste. We got a burger, salad, and a lunch combo. All was satisfying and mostly finished, but we won't be going back. Feels like they should focus on making a smaller menu that is higher quality, better tasting food. read more

Our service was amazing. Te'a was so attentive. I had a burger and it was by far the best burger I've had in forever. We love Silver Diner!! read more

I've been to Woodmore & Waldorph and have been very impressed and satisfied with the quality of the food, service and prices!

Someplace between the $19 French toast or the $18 omelet or maybe it was the $20 eggs and bacon it dawned on me this place is more of a scam than it is anything else. read more

The food at this establishment is good and subsequently it's one of my favorite places for breakfast in the Waldorf area. The first impression of a business in most instances can determine whether a customer returns or list that place in the, "I don't know if I'll return to this place again" category. The host/hostess at a restaurant sets that stage in an eating establishment. Richelle, the Hostess at Silver Diner in Waldorf, is an excellent example of how the individual filling that position should function. Her customer service skills are second to none. She's friendly , courteous, accommodating, and conducts herself in a very professional manner. Richelle should be the person that every new employee should spend the first few days with to learn what excellent customer service looks like. read more

Food was decent and service started out great, but then she disappeared like Houdini and we sat there looking around and around but she was nowhere to be found. This visit had a lot of potential as our server came out welcoming and strong, but then faded and limped across the finish line at the end. Sigh... read more

So disappointed Went to S.D. Three months ago with some friends and ate outside. Waiter was new but thorough. So i get an email hey you haven't been back come earn your points.. So i ordered pickup the same thing i had when with my friends. Let me just say quantity and quality is so different from when you eat in $19.00 for what.. cold food and something that looks like it came off someone's eaten plate.. Called and manager just over talked me. Offered to mail me a $5.00 coupon... really man.. I won't be back read more

Silver Diner Waldorf Md on 9/17/2024 @ noon Long wait Waiter did not offer drinks prior to ordering. Food was delicious and hot upon receipt. Did not appreciate how the manager seating guest and staff stood close by socializing while customers were eating. Extremely loud, distracting, and disrespectful. read more

This is the best Silver Diner location I've ever been to and is now apart of my brunch and lunch rotation. Food and service are consistently great here. Takeout orders have been sent out hot and fresh. Social distancing, sanitizing, and mask wearing are all enforced here plus the tabletops and bathrooms at Waldorf's location are always sparkling clean which has not been my experience at other locations of this chain's restaurants. I love their huge & colorful fresh garden salads with grilled salmon & shrimp and I get the smokehouse cheddar style turkey burger with turkey bacon for lunch and dinner fairly often. The crispy fried Brussels sprouts are my go-to "healthy" option if you remove the fried part in your mind LOL. I didn't know there were so many cocktail options with a full bar of spirits galore, but on my last visit, our server Brian, recommended I try a tropical mimosa and it's my new favorite thing to wash down the chocolate chip pancakes I love. I was apprehensive about trying the crab cake Benedict, but Brian assured me it'd be delicious and it turned out to be just that. Brian was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and friendly. He made great recommendations and was attentive and patient with our table of substitution and modification requesting picky eaters. We loved how proactive he was with refills, bringing extra condiments and napkins, and removing dishes we were finished eating with perfect timing. We felt catered to, but never rushed. Dare I say, this Silver Diner with the awesome updated menus, 5 star service, and pandemic induced white glove pristine cleanliness is now one of my favorite late afternoon brunch locations to visit? It absolutely is!!! Those Brussels sprouts & salads make them a strong "best takeout in the area" contender, too. read more

A really nice Silver Diner although the parking can be a bit tricky with some cars driving a bit too fast around the building. Always a nice variety of options available and the seasonal selections are unique and delicious. Make use of the happy hour deals or blue plate specials! Those are discounts/cheaper options during different times for select items, I'd double check online to review specifics. The service is friendly and amicable, our server checked in with us a few times and helped answer some of our questions about the drinks (both alcoholic and about their hand spun milkshakes). The only thing this diner lacks compared to basic traditional diners is that they do not offer a variety of pasta dishes if that's something you crave ay this type of establishment. As a seasonal offering, they currently have a crab meat and lobster angel hair dish, but in their standalone menu there is no pasta section. Again they have plenty of mindful and rich food options so there is still a lot to enjoy. read more

This spot is super cute with retro vibes. At every table there's a small jukebox, the interior decor matches the whole vintage dining experience. They also have a nice outdoor seating area, albeit not ideal during the hot summer weather. I had a strawberry milkshake, which was sooo tasty, it had real cuts of strawberry and wasn't too thick but just right. To eat, I had the classic egg Benedicts- which they allowed me to substitute the maple ham for turkey bacon (extra crispy just how I asked for.) staff was attentive and did not desert us. I've been here twice, first time was during the week and we were able to be seated right away, however today we came back on a Sunday and had a 20 minute wait for a party of 2. Oh and I almost forgot to mention! They use a lot of their locally sourced grown fruits and vegetables - including their ketchup- which I found pretty neat. read more

I sat at the bar where Marquis took care of me. Service was fast and friendly, not over bearing, and every question was answered without hesitation. I had the avocado toast with salmon and it was fresh and full of flavor. The avocado still had texture which I love and the toast was the perfect thickness and had just enough bite to it to hold things together but not be tough...the salmon was a nice compliment! The MEDITERRANEAN GREEK SALAD was crisp, garden fresh and full of flavor, the chicken was cooked just right and not dry, couldn't have asked for more... They also had a nice scotch on the top shelf, that's always a bonus! I will reserve the fifth star for when I return and try one of their highly praised dishes off the main menu. All in all, a great experience and I love the decor and music... read more

The menu doesn't get stale here. Seasonal changes are the norm. I love that and always look for the new additions. Try the Smith Island Cake, a MD speciality, if you've never had it. Even the wines and beers change, a VG thing. The price is right for the food quality. You'll see tables with nothing but "boomers" having lunch - a sure sign that a restaurant prices are reasonable. For a restaurant that's into organic and food to table sourcing, my hope is that the level of plastic use goes down. Get rid of the plastic straws, for example. Use paper straws or none. I don't want to feel guilty when I see photos of turtles with straws up there noses or read about the amount of plastic found inside a dead whale leading to its' death. It's a huge environmental responsibility issue. Yeah, I know other places are even more guilty but change has to start somewhere. Why not with SD? read more
