This location is a very popular space in the Rio complex of eateries, shopping and other entertainment experiences. The biggest issue to highlight is parking- be ready to need to be super patient to find parking. There is a garage very close by- the one nearest the theater, but there are always so many people there!
That being said, Silver Diner is fantastic down to earth comforting food. There's nothing too crazy, and everything is well prepared and fresh. That's really the goal for any eatery, right!?
After that, the service should be informed, patient and kind, as they are here. There is a lot of seating, especially in the warmer weather as you can sit outside and inside. So, it's not a problem getting a table. The staff here have lots to do, hustling about, but they are pretty attentive.
The place is clean and spacious, and feels like you can comfortably dine here for as long as you like. I've never felt pushed or rushed to finish my meal because they're trying to get another seating from our space. That's always a bonus!
My food choice here is always the same, but I'm happy with just a salad and maybe a side of other vegetables like fries or edamame. Milkshakes here are rich and filling, taking me to a childhood place of happiness, as I don't think about the calories there.
All in all, the menu is extensive, so anyone you dine with will be able to find a meal here. That might require a change or substitution to a menu item, or a pairing or more of smaller dishes, but it can accommodate all eaters and diets.
I'm sure to be back here one day!
