Enjoy live entertainment and dancing as well as a solid "diner" menu at Silk City. Read Full Editorial

Like this place very much... by RoseFarrow via Citysearch on 12/11/2010

The band and dj that play, keeps the crowd going. the drinks are great and have just enough alchol in them. The food is the cherry on top. They are a great place to be, and so much fun on Thirsdays. Thats whwn me and a few girls like to go…

Silk City by Wendi D via Insider Pages on 11/26/2009

The new outside section of Silk City was nice when the weather was warm. The food is usually pretty good too. I like going there for the bar and dancing most. If you get there early enough, you can find a nice spot with your friends for…

Silk City by Emily B via Insider Pages on 11/25/2008

The food is good here. Kind of higher end, upscale, and slightly more creative diner food. Booth and counter seating is nice. It is never that crowded. Staff is somewhat aloof.

Not as good as N. 3rd or the old Silk City by Christa C via Insider Pages on 11/20/2008

This place is not bad it's just disappointing. It lacks the coolness and go back for comfort food that Mark B.'s other place North 3rd has and while it's way more than an old diner now, I still miss the original Silk City for it's…

At Last by anna h via Insider Pages on 11/1/2008

Always a favorite by Rontu827 via Citysearch on 6/17/2008

Everything on the menu is good! Order anything, and you'll probably like it. The wings are excellent. The chocolate bread pudding is definitely worth ordering, but be advised- they give you a lot. Waitstafff service is generally good, and…

Most amazing place in America's most gastronomically underrated town by NinaBa via Citysearch on 2/18/2008

I was taken there by friends, two young locals , that explained to me, a New Yorker ,that Silk City would be the place to eat after 8, when everything is closed. It was spectacular. I paid 100$ for 3 of us including, drinks and a tip .…

So glad they reopened... by soccermom121 via Citysearch on 1/24/2008

On a Friday night, we lucked out getting a booth at around 9:00p.m. The music was 80's pop and the service was friendly and prompt. I had the lentil burger which was very good and we split the buffalo chicken salad. Tastey! It's good to…

The best tofu veggie burgers ever!!! by Dana D. via Judy's Book on 4/16/2006

First, order the sweet potato fries. You will not regret it. Make sure to get a milkshake and a veggie burger. Also, get a side of jalapeno cornbread. Alright, this shouldn't all be done on one trip. Oh no -- you need to frequent this…

Go See Lauren by luvlet789 via Citysearch on 3/11/2006

I love to frequent this spot when I am in town. Great food and ambience, and you cant go wrong with the waitstaff. Lauren always waits on me and never lets me down.

For Late Nite Cravings... by judy k. via Judy's Book on 8/9/2005

If you want breakfast at midnight here's your place! The restaurant is actually an old fashion diner car. They have a typical diner menu, but some with just the right twist to make the dish something unique and mouthwatering. The open…

Great Night Spot by josef27 via Citysearch on 5/14/2005

Me, my girlfriend and my friend just went to Silk City for the first time tonight. It was really cool, I deffinitely recommend it. My friend and I had burgers, which were excellent, and my girlfriend had the fries which were pretty great…

A quintessential American eating experience that goes beyond mere milk shakes and meat loaf. by Contributor via Citysearch on 9/8/2004

In Short
This boisterous spot is classic Americana, with its sleek, silver art-deco exterior accented by the glow of neon. Patrons sitting at the long counter sip coffee and stare at tempting desserts within glass cabinets. Each…

The French Toat Rocks! by rscerullo via Citysearch on 4/22/2004

My husband and I go every weekend. The food is typical diner fare which is fine by me but what keeps us coming back is the DRAMA! Its so much fun to watch the wait staff interact with each other. They're hilarious. Food AND…

silk by kreutli via Citysearch on 3/7/2003

the food is usually pretty good - sweet potato fries and a milkshake are so good together It's a cute nostalgic American diner

Great Food!! by grtguy069 via Citysearch on 11/26/2002

I used the Citysearch to find a good place to eat breakfast early in the morning, as I was picking up my brother at the Airport at 6:30AM. I decided that we would try this place. What a pleasant surprise!! We both got exactly what was…

Best Diner in Philly by blitz1940 via Citysearch on 11/23/2002

This is where my husband and I go for meals when we are in Philadelphia. They have an excellent breakfast menu and their eggs benedict are very good. Their lunch specials are great and offer a nice variety of International Cuisine. As…

overrated stool by mareina via Citysearch on 8/20/2002

The tiny menu shatters any resemblance to the quintessential American diner. Our food was mediocre at best and the service was casually awful.

Dirty Dishes by rubbrbndmn via Citysearch on 8/3/2002

The place was very dirty. The water glasses had what looked like ashes and crumbs in the bottom. They do not give refills on soft drinks. There is no parking. Finally, the food and service was not good enough to be worth going back.

Sobering-Up food by prettie77 via Citysearch on 7/23/2002

What better way to end a night but over a plate of sweet potato fries and a milkshake?? Its open 24 hours on the weekend so staying out late isn't a problem if you're hungry. Just prepared to wait in line at about 2 am after the bars let…
