Parkway Deli is a Jewish Deli, not a diner. It's great food and I love it, but it isn't a diner. They're different.


Yes, but there are no good diners in DC, so it'll have to do.


Agree.

There's American City Diner in CC, but I like Parkway better.

Cookies Kitchen in Pasadena, MD is the best real authentic diner in Maryland. Hands down. No question!

Old Gtown Grill in Bethesda. And Tastee is about as traditional diner as you get in this area. At least the one in Silver Spring.
