    Philly Steak Omelette and Lettuce Wrapped Kickin' Short Rib Burger
    Scarlett H.

    We got take out so I won't be able to speak on service or ambiance, but the food I can! We got the Philly steak omelette and the Kickin short rib burger. I asked for a lettuce wrap on that burger and they did it and it was FANTASTIC! Literally one of the best burgers I've ever had for takeout. The omelette was good but next to that burger it was hard for it to be great haha. The potatoes on the side of the omelette were a little lack luster as well, on the dry side and not very flavorful. Over all good meal though!

    Flatiron steak with Brussel sprouts and garlic spinach

    The "silver" diner was very shiny outside and inside. I really enjoyed that part of the experience. It was so clean. There's a small jukebox box machine at the table. That was a serious blast from the past. We got in 45 minutes before close and were served quickly. My medium well steak was still a little pink inside. However, it wasn't bleeding and was so tender. I can't complain. While the Brussels sprouts look unimpressive they tasted great! I didn't care for the crunchy onions or the garlic spinach really. Something of note was that, when I asked for substitutions, there was no hesitation. I've experienced at other restaurants this can really be an issue. There were lots of good menu choices. I will visit again. I held back a star because, while we got in under the wire, other customer was turned away at 20 minutes before close by one individual then someone else came much closer to close and a different employee welcomed them in. If we're turning people away. We need to be on one accord.

    I was in a hurry today and solo so Sat at the bar today to get in and out quickly! Was greeted fast and food was out in like 5-10 min! Sitting at the bar is interesting you become almost part of the diner inherent chaos (the charm of a diner) . The teamwork if getting food out fast was fun to watch real time. Servers helping each other to ensure everyone got hot food as soon as ready was nice to see. Start to finish was out if there in under 25! Had to post again cause the bar experience was new to me.

    Country fried steak and eggs
    Troy M.

    Love the ambiance of this place. I've always like the feel of diners from the past and this place fully embodies it. The waitress that we had was attentive and quick with our service. We ordered the country fried steak and eggs, grilled cheese with ham, and a kids chicken tenders. All the food was delicious generously portioned and temperature was right out of the kitchen. I 100% recommend this place!

    Avocado toast with salmon
    Stephanie T.

    Love me some Silver diner! Me and my husband came here for a date day brunch. I always try avocado toast everywhere I go to see what's different from restaurant to restaurant and I loved the micro greens on top of theirs! They also made the perfectttttt over medium egg . My husband loved his entree I forgot the name of what he ordered but he inhaled it in about 4 minutes . Wait staff was punctual and professional, and we will be back

    I've been a few times, the food never tastes the same. My last visit I really enjoyed my food and the customer service was amazing. This time I wasn't given butter or syrup with my meal. I also asked for hot sauce and didn't get it. I had to wait several minutes before getting someone's attention who did give me the items needed right away and asked if we needed anything else. I was really looking forward to my meal after it tasting so good the last time just to be disappointed with the taste and customer service from our server.

    Diner heaven.
    Heywood M.

    I'm disappointed ... that I don't find myself on this stretch of road, so I could eat here more!! When you're on the road 250+ days a year like I am, you have certain "go to" meals. For breakfast, mine is corned beef hash. And the corn beef hash here is absolutely the best anywhere I've ever had, tasty and flavorful and amazing. The biscuits are perfect. And the tropical mimosa was mind-boggling. It was so good. I love the place. I just wish I had more reason to be in this area of the state.

    Southwest turkey club. Came with fries and coleslaw.

    We stopped at this location to have an early dinner. We were promptly greeted and seated. The dining room was not busy. We decided on the bacon blue burger and the southwest club sandwich. Food was tasty, fries were served nice and hot. Shout out to Joel!!! He provided quick, great, and efficient service. Very personable. We will return to try other dishes.

    When we first moved here, we were looking for another diner for our weekly breakfast dates and love silver diner! The staff is friendly and the food is good.

    Kickin short rib burger
    Latoya J.

    I can honestly say this is the best burger I've ever had. The short rib burger was phenomenal--seasoned perfectly, incredibly juicy, and cooked to perfection. What really set it apart was the tender, delicious short rib nestled right in the middle. I had underestimated Silver Diner, thinking it was just another average breakfast spot, but this burger (and the fries!) completely changed my mind. I'm truly blown away by the quality and flavor of this dish. Our server Hassan was friendly, patient and gave great recommendations. I will definitely be back soon for another late night meal.

    Thai cauliflower quinoa pasta w/grilled chicken and peach tea unsweetened
    Joelle M.

    Came in for brunch , sat right away no wait. Has a was the server , brought drink and then came for order. Manager came by to take order due to menu at the table-kept in case I wanted dessert. Changed drink for unsweetened peach tea, but went back to original. Peach tea is way too sweet. Ordered Thai Cauliflower Quinoa pasta and added grilled chicken: tasty and quite filling. No dessert needed. Nice to see everyone helping clear tables, wiping off tables, etc and with a smile. Thanks for another great food experience.

    The Just Egg Benedict!
    Monica G.

    Outstanding Vegan-Friendly Service and Delicious Breakfast! We had an amazing experience at Potomac Mills Silver Diner today, thanks to our server, Josette. She provided some of the best customer service we've had in a while! As vegans, we appreciated her knowledge and guidance in helping us make informed choices from the breakfast menu. I was torn between the Just Egg Breakfast Tacos and the It's Back! Just Eggs Benedict, and after some deliberation, Josette asked, "What would you like that's different between the two?" That simple yet thoughtful question helped me realize it was the tempeh bacon I was craving--so Just Eggs Benedict it was! The meal was absolutely delicious, and I'll definitely be back to try the tacos next time. Highly recommend this location for great food and exceptional service!

    How do the jukeboxes work? Should I bring quarters?

    Yes bring quarters. The play list is various genres.... Not just from the 50's and 60's. They songs are played in order as a first come first serve. If no one feeds the jukebox and picks music then nothing is played.

Flavorful, lots of rib meat filling and bread grilled nice and crunchy. It's delicious. Berry Almond French Toast is very good. If you have a sweet tooth for brunch, then do not miss this dish. Steak & cheese melt is a staple on this menu. Filled with nicely seasoned steak, grilled onions and a blend of cheese makes this dish a hearty brunch meal. From the host to the service team, everyone is very efficient and friendly. Pro Tip: use the Yelp waitlist feature on busy days.

He gave us the history of the restaurant, it used to be at the watergate hotel and former president Reagan was a huge fan of the restaurant. Right after he got shot his wife had a surprise birthday party here. The original chef passed away and they lost their lease so this is the location now. Just some fyi for all you history buffs. The food was fantastic yet again. For the hors d'Œuvres we got the Merguez which was lamb sausage with ratatouille. It was very good. We also got a Brie and prosciutto platter with pickles and spiced pears in a red wine sauce. It was interesting for sure. The Brie was St Stephen's from Stephentown NY. I love Brie and this was a good one. Very interesting flavors. I got the seafood special this time. It was scallops, risotto, asparagus, and a shrimp crab cake. I wasn't a big fan of the shrimp crab cake it was dry but everything else paired well. My husband got the filet mignon. The side was these stuffed potatoes and asparagus. The stuffed potatoes were stuffed with a creamy filling almost like crab Rangoon but better. So yum. The waiter found out it was our anniversary and he went all out. He also gave me half a dozen roses and proposed to me in front of my husband . Yall just go here, and ask for Dennis to be your waiter. He's the best.
