I've had their food catered at a work event and delivered through a food app so thought to check them out for dine in. They didn't disappoint--they got 4 stars because I was the server was more attentive but the drinks and food were good. It was also late and right before they closed so we had some grace. read more

Our server Nyy and her management team was amazing. The atomosphere in this specific location is impeccable. I will bring my family and friends here when they're in town. read more

Dined in for a late brunch. Our wait for walk-in was not long, ~15 minutes. Service was good. Our server was very attentive and nice, checked on us constantly and made sure we had enough coffee and cream. When we first got there, it was packed, so it took a little while between when we ordered and got our food. But it wasn't a terribly long time. Food was good too. We tried the Apple pie French toast and corned beef hash. The apple pie French toast was good, a little on the sweeter side with a creamy style filling between slices and was topped with roasted apples and pomegranate seeds. It wasn't greasy like some French toast can be. The corned beef has was a finer hash and came with diced potatoes, biscuit and eggs your way (we chose over easy). The eggs were cooked correctly and the potatoes were cooked through. We got coffee, they serve compass coffee and make it nice and dark. They had run out of the mocha to make a full mocha cold brew shake, but were able to make small mocha shake. It supposed to be plant based, and was good thick shake. It did have an aftertaste that reminded me of soy milk. Price was pretty standard for brunch foods. I would say it is a good deal, since we've paid more for less in the area. We will be back to try dinner foods! read more

Dylan killed it. Very accommodating when we came in with a 9 top with no notice, he was so lovely and a rockstar. Shout out Dillan

Talk about an AWESOME night. My family and I came in for the sneak peak on Friday 9/30/22 and had an amazing time. We were greeted immediately and seated quickly with out reservation. Our waiter "EDWIN" was Phenomenal. It was only his 3rd day but he already had knowledge of the menu and offered GREAT choices. The menu is massive so be prepared to find the right items. I know I did. We ordered the following appetizer: Shrimp Quesadilla's - (Edwin's recommendation) Amazing, tasty and delicious. 5/5. Id get these again for sure and I don't usually like trying things. Cheese Fries - Really nicely seasoned. They were so good I forgot to get a picture. 5/5 Buffalo Wings- I would have liked them to be cooked a little harder but they were good as well. Its really hard to mess up wings. 4/5. I love the fact that they were saucy. As for the drinks, my wife ordered: Strawberry Hennessey and I believe the Tropical Side Car She wasn't a fan of the Strawberry Hennessey as it had some type of soda mixed in. I don't think she finished this but she LOVED the tropical side car. That was gone in a few minutes. She said we have to come back for this. Finally onto the meals: I ordered the french toast without the caramel. DELICOUS DELICIOUS DELICOUS! This is always a hit and a go to of mine at Silver Diner. It never misses. It comes with meat and eggs. The bacon was tasty as well. My wife also ordered the french toast. She was impressed as well. She had no idea it was so good and couldn't believe I didn't tell her about it. My daughter ordered a burger which seemed a little raw to me but they said that's typically how they make them. We also ordered the country fried steak. I must say I wasn't a fan and that it caught me off guard. The gravy wasn't to my liking but the potatoes and eggs were. I ate around the gravy. If I get this again I would leave off the gravy. Overall this place is GREAT! I will definitely be returning and I hope Edwin is still there. read more

Paola was a great server! Food and outdoor dining next to the Nationals Stadium are also a win!

TTHIS IS A PROBLEM!!! - Im trying to cook more but this COULD be my favorite restaurant in the neighborhood! Perhaps we just picked the right things, but the food was good!!! Every single thing we ordered was awesome, down to the Guava-Mint Ginger; a definite MUST try Bryan R. Was my server; super chill but super attentive. Everything he gently recommended delivered! - Chipotle Salmon and Shrimp; clearly a Chef creation the leeks, veggies, etc came together beautifully! - Red White and Blue French Toast; all of the taste of French toast but kind of light. Tip - this is not Sliver Social which is upstairs; you cannot order food the other restaurant. We did solver social last night and it was good too. - Outside Seating 'allegedly' closes at 9pm - A little pricy for a Diner, but this is not really a diner! Kalkidn was my hostess; I've come in here a few times at night and she was by far the most welcoming!!! read more

My favorite place to eat in Navy Yard! Food and services is consistently great and is well priced.

We stayed in DC for a week and ate here three times - super yummy, very welcoming, and the focus on healthy local food was helpful for our family who has a range of dietary needs. The restaurant is beautiful- mid century cool. Affordable too. Coming from CA we have high standards around food, and they nailed it. I love that they had so many plant based options too! And servers were really sweet to us. We will definitely come back! read more

This spot used to be one of my favorites but it is progressively getting worse. I order breakfast and get uncooked potatoes, non-toasted bread, and the meat is typically either overcooked and uncooked. The service is great but the food is not. Today was the last time I waste money on the food. I ordered breakfast potatoes and received onions that look like that were for French onion soup in my potatoes (which I did not request) along with the potatoes not being cooked and food ice cold. Will not be back. read more

Highly recommend this establishment!!My wife and I went to Silver Diner approximately two hours before attending a Nationals game on July 4th. They are conveniently located outside one of the entrances to the ballpark. My wife got The American Favorite two Amish Eggs, bacon, huge biscuit, fruit cup. It came with home fries but she wanted grits instead. My pick is the California Omelette. (See picture with ingredients) Despite being very busy before game time, service was exceptional. Brian did a nice job of being attentive. I believe he was new and confused about his area. He recovered nicely. Silver Diner had the feel and atmosphere you experience before a ballgame. Very busy and it seemed like the people's choice of dining. It has a relatively big space to accommodate lots of patrons. They handled the crowd well. There were several who showed up closer to game time that turned away because of the long line to check in. I'm not sure what it's like in the off-season or when the Nationals are on the road. I assume the would have regulars who dine there before going to work. P.S. Started the day here and ended the day with a To Go order we placed online. After a ballgame early afternoon we traveled to The National Mall for sightseeing all the monuments and memorials. Finished the day with the fireworks show. When returning to the hotel located near the Navy Yard, we decided to actually grab a late dinner. One of the few places that were open at 10:00pm on a holiday. My wife got a Chopped Cob Salad with grilled chicken. I got the Hawaiian Luau burger with sweet potato fries. Both were delicious. Sorry no pics!! read more

We visited in a Sunday round 2:30. The food was wonderful and there was a great variety of options to choose from. It all arrived hot, fresh and in a timely fashion.

Dylan was attentive, had great meal suggestions, and was generally a great person to interact with. 10/10, thank you Dylan.

Food was warm when it came out, & tasted great. Love how there are so many options on the menu as well! read more

There were 5 of us enjoying outdoor dining in naval yard area. Our food included shrimp and grits that was excellent, bison brunch item, corn beef hash, lumberjack breakfast and a kids meal with eggs and pancake. Food was excellent and service excellent except for one item. My pancakes were tasteless and overdone. There were three included with the lumberjack. I did try the kids meal pancake and it was excellent. This seems like a great place to go regardless of the time as they serve everything on the menu all the time. I was not going to let one item ruin a review. I will definitely go again and choose from the many choices on the menu. read more

Wanted to do silver social, but was closed due to a private party. Maybe next time! I'm hoping that the service will be better at future visits. read more

Let me start off by saying the service was terrible. I placed an order for pick up that was supposed to be ready by 9:08. When I arrived I was interrupted by game traffic I had no idea that would be there. As I entered the I was greeted only to find out my order must of been picked up by a thief! The staffed offer to remake my food. Which I waited . Not sure how but my food was ice cold and unenjoyable. My spouse was highly upset that nothing was offered for the inconvenience but a dumb milkshake which I am allergic to milk. We need better staff and management to ensure people spending their hard earned money on today's economy is worth it. I will never return to this location. read more

Shaver C made our Saturday with exceptional service and attentiveness. I shared I wanted mostly Prosecco with a drop of OJ and he brought me a chilled glass with OJ on the side! I also shared how last time my fries were cold and limp so he made sure to bring them over as SOON as the kitchen churned out out. I'm continuously astounded at the quality of gluten free / vegetarian / vegan options... the cauliflower GF pita they serve with their hummus bowl is FABU !! Adding grilled shrimp to these salads is also game changer!! For the ancient grain shrimp bowl - Shavar NEVER made me feel like a difficult client when I swapped the feta for Goat cheese- and swapped the pest0 dressing for champagne vinaigrette :) Love this spot- I've also heard a rumor this location is the nicest one so far, with the best menu options... ! read more

Great location, love the interior, staff is nice and service is good, but food is disappointingly mediocre (and a little overpriced for what it is). To be fair, have only tasted items on the breakfast menu, but everything from the coffee to the pancakes are just bland. read more

DC has been needing a local dinner within its borders. Silver Social is the local diner chain which I'm glad came into the city and filled the void. In my experience, most major cities have a local diner chain that gets local love. Kerby Lane in Austin is an example. Snooze AM in Denver is another. None are really foodie destinations, but they're highly respected in what they put out - basically decent food and comfortable vibes. That being said, this is DC's answer. And the location is nice, with the second floor being for those who want fancier grubs (18+ only). Juanfer, our waiter was friendly and deserves props for the great service! read more

I love me some Silver Diner!! Happy Hour at Silver Diner is the best. Great cocktails and great food on their happy hour menu. It's cool when the bartenders remember you and know your drinks! Next time you're in the Yards, do yourself a favor and check this place out. Head upstairs, check out the view, and have a cocktail. You won't be disappointed. read more

So the wife and I went there early Sunday morning. They were short of staff only a manager and one server. The manager was Patricia and the server was Gio, they were absolutely awesome. Patricia apologize for being short of staff, but got our food to us still hot and fast. Two thumbs up to this team. We were impressed. read more

We went to silver diner after attending the holiday event across the street at the baseball stadium. This place was packed, and we were very surprised when they told us they could seat us in 5 minutes and we would have been fine waiting longer. I will say they are definitely trying to cram as many tables as possible into the restaurant, which is a downside for me. It was hard to get in and out of my chair without bumping into the next table, so the hostess moved our table a bit, but it honestly did nothing. The service was great, and the food was also good. I had a burger with fries, while my spouse had the eggs and turkey bacon off the all day breakfast menu. I knocked off a star because eating in cramped quarters is a minus for me. read more

Silver Diner - Watermelon cucumber mojito - Diners Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Came for dinner on a Thursday night around 8pm and had a great meal! There are two host stands when you walk in (or at least their were when I was there). One for Silver Social upstairs and the other for Silver Diner downstairs. It can be a bit confusing but the hosts do a great job directing you. I planned to eat at the bar at Silver Diner but apparently there is only a physical bar you can sit/eat at upstairs at Silver Social. That being said both Silver Diner and Silver Social serve drinks. The host directed me towards the correct stand to check in at Silver Diner and graciously gave me a drink token to come back and check out Silver Social since there was an event there the night I came. A fun surprise and generous offer! Now onto Silver Diner, the hosts at the second stand greeted and seated me immediately and pointed out specials and recommended the best milkshakes. My server came over super quickly and I had my order in and food in front of me in no time, maybe 10 minutes! I had the pot pie which was AMAZING. Its not a traditional pot pie in that it doesn't come in a bowl covered with crust. Its more of a deconstructed pot pie in a huge bowl with biscuits/cornbread at the bottom and two large pie crust pieces on top. It was incredible! So rich and flavorful and the squash gives it a nice sweetness. I was genuinely stuffed after eating a quarter of it and took the rest home. It also came with a small house salad that was super delicious! My server checked on me at least 3 or 4 times in the half hour i was there. Super attentive and speedy! If you need a quick meal this is a great option and the atmosphere is very casual so you should feel free to hang around as well. I was too full to try any desserts but the milkshakes looked epic. I will definitely come back to try drinks and the milkshakes and also to use my drink token and try Silver Social upstairs! read more

I came here for a quick dinner with my husband and had a wonderful experience. Great location literally across the street from the main entrance of Nats Stadium so very easy to get to when there's no game crowds. We were greeted and seated right away and I enjoyed how spacious and clean everything was. The menus have lots of options but I decided on the guava-mint ginger ale and ribeye Philly steak sandwich while my husband got the hibiscus mango plant-based shake and Beyond meat miso burger. The drinks came out quickly and I love that you get the milkshake cup on the side when you order a milkshake--bonus milkshake! Both drinks were tasty but definitely pricey so I was treating it like built in dessert. My philly steak was absolutely delicious! It came out piping hot on perfectly toasted bread with a side of chili sauce so you can control how much of a kick you want it to have. The fries were super salty but that didn't stop us from nearly eating all of them. Husband enjoyed his burger but didn't get much of the wasabi flavor until the last bite. Wait staff was extremely attentive and friendly and made it a joy to be there. A little pricey for diner food but the quality and service was top notch so it was worth it. I absolutely recommend this spot and will be back! read more

Came in for a quick dinner on a Sunday game-day. We expected the place to be packed--as it usually is on game-days-- but despite the circumstances we received exceptional service from Raven with the red hair! She was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable of the wholeee menu. I'm vegan and can rarely indulge in milkshakes, but I was able to satisfy my craving for a (Beyond) burger and fries AND an oreo milkshake in one sitting. 10/10!! Will definitely be back. read more

I discovered Silver Diner after a Yelp Elite event at Silver Social, which is their upstairs 21+ upscale outdoor dining space. I got very interested in eating at Silver Diner after looking at their menu after the Elite event. We came back 2 weeks later to try their apple pie a la mode, as well as a cheeseburger with fries after visiting the nearby Enchant event. Both were excellent and very classic, well done meals! Their menu is extensive, and it was very hard to decide what to order. The burger was a good size and enough for both of us. Service was great and checked on us regularly. Food came out quickly also. The ambience was nice, not too loud and very family-oriented. Next time I think I'll have the chocolate cake, which looks decadent and delicious. I can't wait to eat here again anytime in the Navy Yard area! 5/5 read more

Stopped here after a night at Enchant DC. We were immediately greeted and seated. Our waitress was astounding. I wish I would of gotten her name because she deserves all the accolades. She went over the menu, what everything meant, asked if we had any dietary restrictions and was just overall quite a joy. My medium rare steak frites was delicious. The hollandaise sauce was so very good, perfect shoe string fries and even the greens were pretty bomb. We also ordered a bottle of wine. The food was good. The ambiance was upscale diner and everyone seemed very friendly. Food also came out promptly. read more

I'm gonna chalk this visit as we came in on an off day. Our server tried his best but it looked like they were short staffed. He sat us down, took our order, etc. He looked like he was the one of two working the first floor. We needed to get his attention a couple times. Even to pay. Food was good just like most Silver Diners. Today just wasn't the day. Maybe next time. read more

Silver Diner - Cobb salad, hold the egg - Diners Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

The popular Silver Diner in one of the most popular places in DC, right across the street from the main gate of the Washington Nationals stadium! While we haven't been to a SD for years, it was on a holiday weekend we ventured in to see how they were stacking up. Still armed with an expansive menu or all-day breakfast items, starters, soups, salads, small plates, sandwiches, burgers and entrees it does take you some time to peruse the menu for decisions. It's also been years since we've gone out to a lunch with a very traditional appetite. As mentioned, there are tons of options on their menu, but today the most basic comfort lunch food struck us as a must-do..for her, a B-L-T with fries, for me, a grilled cheese sandwich with Cole Slaw and veggies. the BLT looked plentiful and well put together and it was reportedly a perfect representative of the pedigree. It was accompanied by a large cylinder of thin cut french fries, ample enough for sharing. My grilled cheese on the other hand was just okay; actually the baked bread had a slightly off-taste, as if the grill maybe wasn't cleaned of other oily substances. The Cole Slaw and veggies however made up for the deficiency of the sandwich. Since it was a day off from work, the spicy Bloody Mary's (affordably priced at $8) were a good choice for us. Do be aware they are true to their billing, as spicy, but tasty. No celery or olives for this version though, instead a spear of pickled jalapeno slices reiterates that this is a drink for those who aren't afraid of some kick. Like others here, I do have to comment on the serving (and hosting) staff. They were terrific, friendly, without hovering, helpful and very prompt. They were an important part of our experience as they will be yours. Rest assured, the trip was a net positive. With the upstairs Silver Social beckoning with great views and their own distinct menu, it won't be as long for us to be back for a repeat visit. read more

Good food and service lots of police officers eating there so you know had to be good or free food.

Ok, let's just start with this location. This location does NOT have waffels, nor do they serve turkey burgers how most of their other locations do. It was 0900, and they ran out of crab meat, then magically they found some to make the crabcakes. Like WTW. They get a 3 star. However, our server Kegan was very accommodating. Very knowledgeable of the menu to assist with making suggestions of different eats due to lack of waffles and turkey burger. We had pasta and crab cakes. Although tasty, I will not return due to lack of certain items on the menu that should be on the menu. Everyone does NOT eat beef. read more

Yeah, I'm a 50-50 on this place, meaning I went twice and the first time it was perfect and the second it was absolutely horrible. I got the same item both times, the American breakfast and a Diet Coke. The first time everything was perfectly cooked and seasons, the biscuit was awesome as well to the point it stood alone, no jam/butter required. The second time was worse than a hospital cafeteria where my potatoes were almost not cooked, the apple sausage patties tasted days old and cold. The only palatable thing on that second visit was the Diet Coke. Don't think I'll be back for some time, which is a disappointment because its a five minute walk from my apartment and on the way to work in the morning. read more
