We went to celebrate a birthday. The food was mostly delicious. The burger needed salt. But the more frustrating part was that on two separate occasions we ordered drinks - one was not even entered and then the second took a very long time to come with little to no apology on either. Will always go to the Chevy Chase location from now on.

Very welcoming atmosphere. Lovely variety of menu options. The halibut, salmon and steak dishes shine. Consistently impeccably prepared. Bartenders and wait staff as well as managers are helpful and friendly

The food, service and atmosphere are always outstanding and the food is the best anywhere. We have had about everything on the menu and have never gotten a mediocre meal. Thank you Bella for coming to Palomar!
