    The hash brown things were not bad
    Joy O.

    Silver Social feels is a slightly elevated version of Silver Diner, just with a nicer setting. The location is great and the stadium views are a plus. We went for brunch and there was a game scheduled at 4pm, so just be mindful...leaving was a whole situation. Traffic and crowds were not playing. Service started off strong, but slowly went downhill the longer we stayed. Orders were forgotten, the wait for food was way too long, and when it finally came out, it was wrong. My steak was cooked incorrectly and my eggs weren't even made the way I asked. At that point, I was over it and ready to go. And I have to say this...they allowed a dog inside the restaurant upstairs near the hostess stand while seating guests. I'm sorry but no. That completely turned me off. Overall, it has potential because of the location and views, but the service and experience need serious improvement.

    Tried Silver Social in Navy Yard and it's essentially a more elevated version of Silver Diner. The waiter was knowledgeable, attentive, and patient, which made the experience better. The food was just okay it got the job done, nothing that really stood out. The location is right next to Nationals Park, so it's convenient, but it can get overcrowded pretty quickly depending on game day traffic, which definitely affects the overall vibe. I'm glad I tried it, but it'll probably be a while before I return. That said, I would recommend it as a solid option if you're heading to a game.

    I'm a fan of a silver diner anywhere so learning about their cocktail concept was a welcome surprise. Located in the navy yard on the 2nd floor of the diner, it has an upscale & cozy aesthetic with more intimate lighting & seating. I stopped by for cocktails and light bites with my family. Service was quick & polite. We ordered a round of cocktails that were delicious, an order of old bay potato chips (sublime! but not enough), the sliders were pretty good (Waygu & Crabcake) and the bacon/ricotta flatbread was interesting but ultimately an acquired taste of the good variety. This is a great option for quality cocktails and finger food in a casual dining.

    Lovely place above Silver Diner. Went here for the happy hour on a nongame day. They have a large bar and high tops to accommodate a number of people. Drinks were good. Nice variety of items at the same price point as surrounding places. Nice outside seating that overlooks the stadium. Good choice. I'd return for dinner.

    We came on a Saturday night and they have happy hour that starts at 9:30 on certain drinks for $8. I like that they have a mini size of the entree if you want something a little smaller. The bartender was slanging drinks but still attentive. My lobster pasta had a lot of flavor and I would order it again. I feel like there could have been more fingerling potatoes in the basket for $9 sheesh. Overall we enjoyed ourselves to conclude date night.

    Came here with some friends just to grab a drink and I love their outdoor seating area! Nice views of the city and also covered which is a win. My friend got the sliders and loved it and I got the gin drink and loved it. Solid spot.

    Churro French Toast

    Went to silver social for brunch on a Sunday. The place was filling up since there was a local game playing. I was able to get a table outside. The waiter I had was friendly and made sure to check in. I ordered the churro French toast. Brioche bread, raspberries and a chocolate churro sauce. This was my first time trying and it was delicious.

    Old bay wings.

    Definitely enjoyable! Went here October 6, during the Chris Brown concert. At first it was iffy as we were sat but not attended to. I went up to the hostess stand to address it and possibly move. Two servers were up there talking and the hostess was on the phone handling a customer. Stood there patiently then one of the servers asked me if I needed something. I explained then he informed me that's what they were discussing and give them a moment. I didn't quite care for this interjection as I wasn't needing him nor did he even resolve the issue. The hostess got us together right as she got off the phone. Anyway, we got moved and attended by Evan. Evan has got to be one of the best servers I've had in such a long time. The food was great and Evan's recommendations were fantastic. I had just got the old bay wings. I'd go back in a heart beat for those. I do wish they offered fries and possibly changed up the menu. I've been here multiple times and after a while you kind of want to see new items. I'd say the prices are reasonable. On top of the wings, I ended up getting a martini and two (generous) pours of the Cabernet. Drinks were great all around.

    Went here on a Sunday, during a busy time when there was a concert at the national park. Went around 3:30 so in between dinner and brunch, they were just doing last call for brunch. We sat upstairs on the balcony overseeing the Navy yard and loved it. It did get a little warm but they have fans you can ask them to turn on if needed. Our waiter Carlton was a sweet heart and trying his best to manager a number of tables. We did have an issue where half of our table ordered around 3:45pm and didn't receive our food until 5:00pm. While folks at our table who showed up late around 4:15pm for their food about 20 minutes after and the table next to us who also ordered around the same time as our 4:15pm guests. Our table had 5 people so not big. Nonetheless the table had crab cakes, the CHIMICHURRI wings, the waygu sliders, the steak and chips, the hot honey wings, and CRISPY SMASHED FINGERLING POTATOES. Everyone loved their entree except the waygu sliders lacked flavor and seasoning. Everything else was super flavorful and tasty and we honestly can't wait to go again to try other items and take advantage of their bottomless cocktail on the brunch menu. Only gave four stars due to the timing of receiving our food but we are hopeful that next time we don't have to deal with the stress of our order not coming out within a reasonable time.

    Crab cake 10/10
    Brandi A.

    Got the crab cake main dish and shrimp tacos. Everything was delicious. I love the ambiance and how it's more of a vibe than the downstairs-silver diner. Great place to grab drinks at the bar!

    Came here for drinks with mom! Very eclectic crafted cocktail menu in addition to wines and beers. Seated promptly and had our orders taken. Took a little longer than expected for 2 drinks but what was worth it! We had the Fancy Colada and Watermelon Drop. Filled to the brim you get your moneys worth! Fresh ingredients and fresh garnishes really enhanced the drink. While we didn't have food, they do have full lunch/dinner/brunch menus. The food we saw go by did look delicious! Located on the second floor of the Silver Diner, this spot is the cool place to be seen! Large bar area and small dining area. Definite place for pre or post game drinks and food! Check out their sister place downstairs too Silver Diner!

    Steak medallions with homemade chips
    Tamara S.

    First time visiting, and I will say, it was an experience, in a good way. The menu was slightly different but good. I tried the Ceasars salad. The description stated the romaine was crispy however, it was not. A little disappointing, but the creativity was good. The taste of salad was good, but was a little soggy. I had the medallions medium-well and those were great. I would definitely recommend them. Our waiter was friendly and efficient, with our large party. Hostess waa friendly as we came in. I will definitely return.

    Classic margarita
    Donyiel C.

    Visited here a few days ago for happy hour. We got seats at the bar shortly after they opened up at 4. If you want a seat, get here early. Located at the top of Silver Diner and right across from the stadium, it's not hard to find! It's just a block up from the Navy Yard metro station. They have great happy hour specials considering the area! I'm sure soon when baseball season starts it'll be crowded! I liked the margarita I got. I wasn't too hungry as I had a late lunch, but I tried the wagyu sliders - very delicious. Add Silver Social to your list!

    Yes, it's daily at the bar. Silver social is closed all Mondays and Tuesdays.

I know Silver Diner is a chain in the area, and I knew I liked the food. I came in, sat immediately, and was greeted by the server. Placed a drink order and went to the menu. It has been a while since I have been to one of these, and I wanted to make sure it was still on the menu. Not sure what was going on in this section, but I swear the lights were either off or set to the lowest setting for dimming. I almost had to bring my phone out to give me some light. I confirmed that the item was still on the menu and waited for my server to come back. Listen, whether you have a party of six or a party of one, you really shouldn't skirt around my table and kind of ignore me. I was waiting to place my order and had to wait for my server to come back around to me. My order was finally taken and my drink showed up. I ordered a side salad and their meatloaf. My go to meal for this establishment. My salad came out pretty promptly as it was a food runner bringing this my way. Your typical pregame salad. Before I had this done, the meatloaf made its appearance. The meatloaf hit. It was exactly how I remembered it. For a late dinner, it definitely sat heavy in my stomach. But I know when I did have my head hit the pillow later I was easily fall asleep. Which, I could have done here with how dark the space I was sat in was. Meal was over, but it took a long time to get my bill and pay it. Once I had that out of the way, I went through the well lit portion of the restaurant to use the facilities before heading back out. Seriously, turn the lights up in that front street facing space.

We also ordered the fish and chips, but they were very heavy and greasy, to the point where we decided not to finish them. For drinks, I had a margarita that was overly sour and not very enjoyable. My husband had an IPA on draft and said that was really good, so the beer selection may be the better route here. Unfortunately, the service was also not great, which made the overall experience feel a bit underwhelming. I could see this being an okay place to watch a game or grab a beer, but based on our visit, I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back for the food or cocktails.
