Silver Spoon Diner

Im just so disappointed in this dinner. ITS HORRIBLE !!!. I have been ordering from this place for about 2 years and EVERY SINGLE TIME i order they just happen to mess up my order ALWAYS !!. The staff has a horrible attitude. The food id horrible always with SOGGY UNCOOKED FRIES. I do not recommend it to no one. Smh

Standard diner fare. I eat breakfast here almost every weekend.
Pros:
Nice staff
Decent food
Fast turn around
Convenient location
Newly renovated atmosphere
Kid and group friendly.
Cons:
Food is inconsistent (ie, amount of food, how it is cooked, what’s included)

I have ordered the pizza from here before. It has been fine not great but fine.
Tonight, the pizza was delivered with cheese missing from half the pizza. All the cheese was congealed in the middle.
Either they did not leave in the oven enough or the delivery man dropped it on the way here.
In either case it doesn’t matter because I will never set foot in here or order from here again.
Suggest you do the same.

The breakfast is good enough but the other day I’ve tried one of their hamburgers with fries and «chicken soup» it was horrible and tasteless. The «chicken soup» tasted like it came from a can and the hambuger was super dry with hard fries. I felt like I was eating paper… never again :(

I’ve heard locals describe this place as «having pretty good food»…its obvious now that people in this area don’t know good food from dog food. Decided to try it after they renovated recently & treat my mom to what I assumed would be a tasty cheese burger and I initially ordered a turkey burger but changed it to what i again assumed would be a more satisfying option– their gyro. Well 18 $ LATER. I exclaimed, GROSS NEVER AGAIN! GYRO, way too much dry, salty, tasteless, and ancient «lamb» meat, over stuffed like they needed to clean out the fridge before an inspection… sauce on it was sparse and with absolutely no flavor. I felt obligated to eat half & threw the other half of it in the trash/​/​absolute Gyro disgrace… not even suitable for dog scraps. My mom’s facial expressions as she was eating her burger were hilarious but very sad for a guilty son to watch– dry, over cooked and again, tasteless. If a diner can’t make a decent burger and fries with an obviously frozen patty for 10 $ and up… then there isn’t much promise for whatever else they have on the menu… This place needs a Kitchen Nightmares overhaul… over priced, over rated and below standard. Very zzzzzzzzz… Unless your looking to feel cheated and underwhelmed… SAVE YOUR DAMN MONEY PEOPLE. They obviously don’t put any pride into what they serve. Previous reviews describe this a being like a food court, the owners need to be taken to court! #Silver Spoon Diner? #Aluminum Spoon Diner (would be more accurate.) #Stop being lazy and cook! This areas food options are a complete joke WTF?

There is a high level of inaccuracies on delivery orders in spite of the fact I make him repeat the order.
They have changed the sausage from sliced to crumbled in the pasta with garlic and broccoli. It does not taste as good and it upsets my stomach.
They do not cook grilled chicken to order so it is dry in the pasta with garlic and broccoli and salads. The same goes for chicken Marsala. It’s like they just grill up a bunch of breasts and let them sit until needed.
They do have good breakfasts.

Overall this diner has gone a long way! I haven’t been here since before they renovated it and to tell you the truth it look amazing inside. Even the small restrooms look nice.
Good plate portions
Great prices
Good customer service
In detail:
So far I have been to this place twice after the reservation and I was a bit disappointed with both visits.
The first time I ordered a CHEESEBURGER with French fries and I was expecting a burger bun but instead the burger came in a roll. It was odd. But anyways the burger was ehh. It was a good size but the taste was not that good at all.
The person I came with ordered BUFFALO WINGS with fries as well. Good taste, spicy and not a soggy texture for the wings. So that was good.
My second visit I ordered CHICKEN TERIYAKI and it comes with mushrooms and yellow rice. I absolutely regret ordering this plate just because I did not like the taste. It was different and I know that plate might not be their specialty but the taste was no where near as any other chicken teriyaki I have ever had. HOWEVER, if you are willing to give this plate a try, what I can say is that they give you a good portion for the $ 8 you’re paying for.
The person I came with ordered FISH AND CHIPS. I was so jealous. I did try the fish and I can say it was sooooo delicious!!! So crispy and a great moist savory taste of fish. I would recommend this plate to anyone! 3 fish tenders and fries (chips) for about $ 9.49 (I think) if I ever come back I would order this plate!
Customer service was okay. A bit late with noticing you for the check and stuff. Plate orders came in fast.

This place is growing on me! I can’t believe we haven’t tried this diner in all the years we’ve been in this neighborhood. It’s your typical diner with a variety of choices. Pizza on your left when you walk in, bakery and breakfast items on your right. You get seated in the back where the booths and tables are and there are plenty of seats. Service is good, quick and friendly. My husband especially loves that when he tailors his order, they get it right. The chicken sandwich here is made really well. The scrambled eggs, bacon, home fries with toast is good and always on point. Well-​seasoned home fries and love their toast. They give lots of bacon! The bread comes out perfectly hot and soft, with soft butter… it’s always the little things that makes us enjoy our meal! Now we don’t have to go as far as Georgia or Tower diner in the area because Silver Spoon does a pretty good job of giving us the diner experience.

Huge improvement! Interior renovated and staff moral way up! Love the nice clean extensive menu and lunch specials! This diner is the real deal!

Had a long wait for another appointment so decided to stop by for breakfast. The breakfast was decent, nothing special. The place is very clean and bright. Service was pretty decent. Typical dinner on the clean side. Price is not cheap but reasonable for the area. Don’t mind coming again.

It’s a good place to have in the neighborhood. They are very attentive and fast. When lever I’m in the neighborhood, this is the place for me

Ordered a burger with fries and a shake. Burger tasted good, but the bun was soggy. Sweet potato fries were just terrible, totally soggy and really had no flavor. The really disappointing part was the shake. It just didn’t taste like anything. Never had a shake that tasted so bland
Deliver took 40 minutes, which on a rainy Saturday night is good. Don’t think I’ll be ordering from here again.

One of the best diners in Queens. Silver Spoon opened in 1982, when I was 8 years old. The food has always been great since their opening. The prices are good, the menu has great selection. Their reuben sandwich is great!!! French Toast is delicious. I love their food. It’s great to know that they give back to the community like they originally started in 82. Too many restaurants/​shops have changed their traditional values. Silver Spoon stayed the same all these years… So Grateful to have great, REAL food again in NY.

Not a review about food but what happened yes the food is good and some of the people there are really nice this has to do with I don’t know how many owners this place has but the owner /​manager there this easter sunday. I did not want to cook so I thought let me go here to get something to eat I have a lot to say but I will try to keep it short after my food was finally done the manager /​owner I don’t know his name got my order proceeded to bag my food in a paper bag but stopped since one of the waitress /​server started talking to him finally after she stopped talking he finally started to finish bagging my order not with a new plastic bag but a bag that was already on the counter when I came in around 11:40 am I didn’t mind too much but I kept my mouth shut but what made me mad was after he put my order in the plastic bag he coughs right on both bags to me this is disgusting and disrespectful I am always respectful when I come here after seeing this I still kept my mouth shut and just said thank you and all I got in return was an attitude when I got outside I took out my order of food from the bags he cough on and the foil tray the food was in was not properly covered and almost fell out on to the sidewalk cause I did not want to get sick so I put it in one of the bags I got from the grocery store the point of my review is people are disrespectful to other’s by not covering their mouth’s when they cough and sneeze and in return other’s get sick I have multiply health issues when I get sick it takes a long time for me to get better I don’t know if he did this on purpose if so that was wrong because people that work there know me and know I am always respectful this has taught me a lesson I am too damn nice and respectful but now I feel I should stop being the way I am and start being disrespectful

Poor service. Placed an order for delivery. An hour later called and they said they forgot to send it. Too bad their food is actually decent for a diner.

Great location right next Lefrak City and the 1 Lefrak office building. What you would expect from a normal diner. The service was good, food was good, and the prices are good. If you are in a rush sit at the counter instead of a table or booth. In the morning it can be pretty hectic.

This place is great for take out or dining in. The only drawback is that the décor needs a bit of an update.
Their pancakes are very tasty. I would definitely recommend the pancakes if you’re stopping in for breakfast.
The pizza is always a good choice in the afternoon.
The menu is extensive. Lots of choices which is typical for a diner.

Save your money and just go the panera for breakfast and into the food court in the Queens Center Mall for lunch. This diner is not attractive. The seats and tables are old and the way they are placed makes it look crowded. The food is extremely awful and really expensive. The cook never gets your order right. I am pretty sure it is because there isn’t another diner close enough to give them competition. Also, be careful of the creepy workers who are preverts!

The casher charged 75 cent for credit card transaction for my $ 7 worth order. This is highway robbery. No more doing business with this place.

Crowded for lunch. Seat yourself. The front is busy take-​out area. Filled with a blend of locals as is their menu, a blend of different dishes, but mostly ‘diner’ food.
Got my usual vanilla egg cream and it was perfect. Tuna on toasted rye. Nothing crazy but solid. Service was attentive and quick.

I got a menu delivered to my door and decided to try this place. My first few order were for sandwiches, The Silver Spoon Cuban and Pastrami and cheese. Both times the food was extremely greasy, but the delivery was prompt and on point, a half hour means a half hour.
Then one night I came home late from work, no food in the house, and nothing open late in Rego Park, except for the Silver Spoon. I tried the Double Cheese Burger Deluxe with an order of Cole Slaw. WOW… what a difference the food is when it comes of the grill. The burgers were absolutely perfect and had a nice grill taste to it, the fries were perfectly crunchy, not soggy, and the Cole slaw was amazing, real old school cole slaw.
The delivery and the burgers are what makes this place. I will be amending this review once I get a chance to try breakfast.

I seriously have nothing bad to say about this place. Upon first glance, it looks food court-​ish and doesn’t look like it has any sort of ambiance whatsoever. Then, as I walked past the cash register, I saw lots of booths, and a long counter with padded swivel stools. Oh, yeah, now we’re talking!
Service was great. And the menu? Truly impressive with fantastic prices. My omelet was SOOO good — and they even had weird options like pepperoni! Go for it!
I also really liked that you pay at the counter. I didn’t feel rushed– and could have sat there with my unlimited coffee all day. They charge you 75 cents if you pay with a credit card for an order that’s less than 20 bucks. But honestly, I’d rather they do that then tell me that I have to pay in cash!
This is a place that definitely has regulars, and as I’m moving to the area, I’m looking forward to being one of those regulars. They say, though, that a diner’s true test is how good their burgers are. That’s what I’m getting next time, and I’ll adjust my review accordingly.

I’ve never eaten in Silver Spoon but have gotten delivery a few times.
I recently had the French Toast with Scrambled Eggs. Both very good and I would definitely get it again. My friend had the Western Omelette and I guess he really liked it since he had it again the next day. Previously I have ordered a Swiss Cheese and Broccoli Omelette which I remember really liking and the Turkey Burger is very good from here as well.
I really like Silver Spoon, I’m glad they are right around the block from me.

I believe this was called Silver Spoon Diner a while back, but then it changed to Food Court for some reason. Maybe it was a change of ownership, but I’m not sure…
In general, the guys there have been pretty nice and they deliver promptly…
In regards to the food, I can’t really say I’ve been all that impressed. Yesterday i ordered a meatball parm. and it wasn’t that tasty in my opinion…
Summary: Even though i didn’t like my meatball parm., there’s plenty of things to order and you’ll just have to try them out for yourself. I can only give them 3 stars for good service and variety. It’s hard to give this place any more stars when Georgia Diner is very close by with parking and serious 5 star grub.

Silver Spoons: a Michael Bay-​style review
it is approximately half an hour before the 2011 Super Bowl. CUE DRAMATIC MUSIC.
we cut to our heroes, The Phantom and Leonidas. they are speeding down Queens Boulevard. there are car crashes and explosions all around, and a helicopter chasing them.
they maneuver down Queens Bully and into LeFrak City. more military vehicles en route, as they duck into «Silver Spoons».
Leonidas: we’re here to pick up an order for 5 boxes of wings.
the Phantom: gentlemen, welcome to «the Rock».
guy at counter: forty-​three dollars, please
Leonidas: do you take credit?
the Phantom: GIVE ME YOUR FACE!
our heroes speed out as the tanks, jets, and chopper are converging on their location.
«WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED!»
navigating through the side streets, as explosions go off around them, they return to their home base in Rego Park.
the wings are succulent, somewhat spicy, messy, and packed with flavor.
the Super Bowl party has been saved.
END CREDITS

I don’t know if I’d consider this place a food court. I’d say it’s more of a diner, with newspapers and drink coolers for those on the go.
The place gave me a good breakfast. I got an omlette with pepperoni & cheese (yes the cheese was extra), grits (finally grits in NY), toast and coffee. Everything tasted great. I didn’t feel rushed at all.
I didn’t like the fact that they charge an extra .75 if you use a credit card under $ 20.
