This original location has annual sales of $6 million and remains one of the busiest restaurants of its size in the United States.[4] Silver Diner Development llc. operates 19 restaurants in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States with locations in New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. and employs more than 1,700 people.

In 2007, Silver Diner established its first airport location with the opening of its sixteenth restaurant in the AirMall at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI).[5]

In 2015, Silver Diner expanded its family of restaurants with a new brand concept called Silver. This upscale polished casual restaurant continues the fresh and local tradition of Silver Diner and elevates it with a full bar featuring craft cocktails from award winning mixologist Richard Torres.
