If you are looking for the "true diner experience" you want to go to the
original Tastee Diner in Silver Spring, MD. It's near the corner of Georgia
Ave. & Colesville Rd (Rt. 29), by the Silver Spring Metro Station.
They have a decent menu and some of the best diner style food around
(including Meatloaf). I recommend their onion rings most especially.
Otherwise, I haven't really found any others that are as consistantly good in
the DC area.
Out in St. Louis, MO there is a chain of diners called Steak & Shake which
are most excellent, with large, tasty portions and reasonable prices, if you
ever get out that way.....
