On the Grid : Silk City

"As if the authentic diner car as the main seating area isn’t cool enough, Silk City boasts one of the nicest outdoor dining spots in the entire city, as well as a downstairs lounge for dinner service and DJ nights. Despite the classic shiny exterior, the menu here goes above and beyond your typical diner fare, particularly for brunch: the fried chicken and waffles (that’s ONE dish, not two!) is the perfect sweet-and-savory option, and the salmon eggs benedict is a personal favorite. Be forewarned: Silk City’s excellent brunch reputation precedes itself, so expect a wait on an average weekend morning, particularly if it’s nice outside." - The McQuades
