Silver Girl

We had the most fantastic meal at Sliver Girl in West Acton! The food, the drinks, the ambiance and the hosts were impeccable! Dawn and Tam, you have made a welcoming, comfort food haven. In order of the photos: Grey Lady cocktail, Rogue River Blue Cheese with poached pear, hot honey and baguette; popover with cane syrup & Aleppo butter; Mama Eva’s gumbo; chicken pop pie; brioche soaked in cardamom syrup and filled with marscarpone cream. This was a magical meal in a magical venue (even a soft jazz trio!). #silvergirl @silvergirl.us

Let me tell you what: it’s criminal how empty this place was on an early Saturday evening. This meal brought me to tears it was so lovely. The decor inside is beautiful, the service is so friendly and attentive. The drinks- DAMN! I had the envious moon, it blew me away. I ate by myself, and to know, the plate of Brussels is HUGE. Gladly took some home. The bonito flakes on top are a unique and brilliant touch. The gumbo- lightweight but with a beautiful dark and flavorful roux. The chocolate cremeaux, super rich, perfect portion size so as not to overdo it. Take your friends, your dates, and your mama here. Enjoy this place to the fullest because they deserve it and you do too!

December 2025: We are back after a recent trip to New Orleans and Silver Girl's gumbo stands up to the gumbos I had in New Orleans. I also enjoyed the refreshing PPP salad with pear slices. An added bonus jazz trio at 6 pm March 2025:We had an excellent dinner here. Duck leg cassolet with beans tasted incredible. My husband enjoyed the seafood gumbo. Popovers were perfect. The beet salad was flavorful. The only thing to be aware of is that there are three sitting areas: bar, lounge, and dinner. The lounge area has tiny tables which could barely fit two dinner plates. They were meant for drinks and bar snacks, not having a full dinner. Be aware when making reservations.

We celebrated a 40th birthday here and thoroughly enjoyed the food. The musical duo who started playing at 6 pm were delightful.

This place is a great vibe and the food and cocktails are amazing. Went on Valentine's day and it felt like they really respected your time and didn't try to rush your out like some other restaurants on this holiday. They also had live music (see their website to see who is performing) really added to the atmosphere! Will be back!
