"In the heart of Midtown is an homage to vintage diners, The Silver Skillet. The humble atmosphere hasn't changed in its 60 years of business with a traditional Southern menu, including country ham steak with red eye gravy, fried catfish strips, Dutch salad, and lemon ice box pie." - Tori Allen

"If you spot a movie or TV show with a vintage counter and wait staff wearing earrings shaped like omelets, the shot was probably filmed at Silver Skillet on 14th Street. This breakfast and lunch counter has been an ATL staple since 1956—and, of course, a preferred backdrop for many set crews. Order the corned beef hash, buttermilk waffle, and soft scrambled eggs, which look like they’re straight from Mel’s Diner (that’s from Alice, young’uns). One bite and you’ll know this place isn’t a gimmick—the old-timey vibes and homestyle tastes are the real deal." - nina reeder, demarco williams, juli horsford
