“Went here on a first date and it was a fun spot! It took a little while to get a table and the service was a tad on the slower side but they were super busy and it was a Friday night so it made sense! We both ordered margaritas on the rocks and they were delicious and a good size/strength, not too sweet. The app we got was chips and guac and it was a great size for the price. We also both ordered 3 tacos from the options listed, both of our favorites was the Al pastor. Only complaint here was that the plate was this like rock slab so as the tacos dripped there was not edge to catch it and our waiter took a bit to get us extra napkins. I believe they were recently featured in a Washington post article or something like that so they might've been super busy because of that! Also as an aside, we had to try one of the tacos with ants in it because that's a unique experience and they were much larger ants than expected! Not my taste and weirded me out a bit but cool that they have the option!“
“I live in the neighborhood and once in a while when I want to just have a super chill, super yummy, super special experience I rack my brain to think of where to go? So many options but I always come back here. Like a warm, wholesome spongy Injera with a comfy lounge and an outdoor area to just relax and be. ❤️“
“When I tell you my toes curled at first bite it would not be an understatement...our server Faith made me feel as if I was the oyster and the food was my pearl. Will definitely come again for the roti. This sheer joy and euphoria I experienced with Faith as my server is second best to that of my 3rd wedding.“
“We went upstairs to the covered and heated rooftop bar. There were tons of board games to choose from so we decided on trivial pursuit. The beer selection here is phenomenal and I tried my first Lagunitas hoppy refresher, a non alcoholic zero calorie sparkling water with the flavor of refreshing hops! It was the flavor of beer without the calories or the alcohol, brilliant! Our bartender was super fast and very friendly. A great spot to check out if you're in the neighborhood.“
“NOT TODDLER FRIENDLY. Vibes are off.Is this a fancy upscale restaurant where you experience a quiet atmosphere, enjoy a duck confit quesadilla (it was ok) and have to make a reservation (they turned away 3 parties when we were sitting at the bar and there were open table.. clearly a mismanaged house or kitchen.OR is this a place to pop in for a pint and a burger after playing tennis or kicking a soccer ball around the park next door?The restaurant is not sure. Neither were we.We guessed it was a pop in place. I wish they had just said “no kids at the bar” or something instead of letting me and my husband and our two kids sit down.No crayons or stickers or anything for kids, though there were Elmo’s around the place and it was decorated with some cool vintage toys.At one point the manager or someone told *me* that my kids (2 and 4) need to “stay in their seats”And that my toddler curiously walking up to another kid at another table was “not appropriate” (there was another toddler also walking around… )Oh and he told me this lol when my *husband* was walking around the restaurant with my kids. Always blame the moms! #patriarchyWill not be going back.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly“
“I've enjoyed many nights of great music and hanging out with friends at this cool retro tavern with plenty of room for dancing! Top notch musicians love playing here and when they have a night off, they enjoy hearing other great musical acts here because it feels like home. You won't be disappointed--tell them Wolf & Connie sent you here! :-)“
“I’ve made few memories here, multiples friends have made plenty of memories here, grand scape of slightly different environmentsIt’s a good time.Passion fruit cheesecake was amazingMuch respect to the placeDietary restrictions: All types available but not very heavily“
“We have a complicated past with Roscoe's. We live just a block away in Old Town Takoma Park. When they opened we went there a couple of times and it was just plain bad. There were almost no toppings on the pizza and it was all pretty tasteless. So for the last more than a decade we've avoided them - which bummed me out. I love to support our local businesses but there have been, in the past, a few clunkers. And Roscoe's was yet another one. But the other day when I was walking my dog I thought, "Why do I always see people eating both indoors and outdoors there?" So I thought, "Well, let's give them another chance. Maybe they've change in over a decade!!" And have they ever. My husband and I had the Roasted Beet Salad, the Antica Pizza and the Siciliana White PIzza. It was all REALLY good. The Antica was a little greasy so I did some degreasing. The salad was perfect and substantial. The pizzas were really flavorful (with a lot of toppings) and the woodfired pizza was crispy and chewy. Just great. We'll definitely be back since we pretty much live right next door!“
“Best sandwiches I’ve ever had!! I didn’t know sandwiches could be so good. This is my new favorite go to spot in Annapolis. Everything I’ve tried has been delicious. The house made chips are good, desserts are good, onion rings are good! Customer service is great. Overall, very clean, lovely bathrooms, and sanitizer available for guests.“
“This was my second time having kpot, first time at this location . Buffet was all that! Especially the fried chicken & they were so accommodating bc we really only like flats & they provided us with that with a smile. It was clean. And the food came so fast!Only thing I’d like them to add that my first kpot experience had was a picture of good sauce options you can make.“
“Came in after a visit at Go Ape nearby. Was famished after all the physical activity. Maya (sp?) our server was bright and friendly. My order was a bit wrong, but I was so hungry I didn't notice at first. The house salad apparently is pre made with the dressing already added? Could have been a quick cover-up (as I asked for blue cheese)and if she's that quick on her she's gonna go places, but it was great none the less. The steak wrap I had was a healthy portion and delicious.“
“The Jewel of India, epitomizes classic and authentic Indian cuisine. Bright on the menu, one can find diversified culinary heritages of India. Not only fine food takes the dining experience here to another level; outstanding warm service does. Attentive and genuinely warm staff place every guest to a special space which can be nothing else than Indian hospitality. Adding on ambience of light and Indian classical music, it is a sumptuous, great experience that lures one back for more. Whether your love of Indian spices is an old affair or you are just coming to these eclectic flavors.“
“We had a private birthday party and it was so fun the food was amazing the atmosphere was perfect. The bar tender was funny and helped make the night for all of us. Not from the area but would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back.“
“Satay Club is on of our favorite spots! Pad Thai is so delicious, fresh and amazing every time we order take- out. Gluten free options. We also have tried their sushi and green salad ginger dressing is fantastic. We will be back to try some new items, as all the food looks so good and the service is very friendly and fast.“
“Guys - if you like cider even a little bit, you have to come here. The cider is dry, flavorful, and delicious (without random sugar added). The atmosphere is hip, the lights are ambient, and Liz is (out of this world) attentive to all your food and beverage needs. COME GET ANXO! PS - you can bring your friendly dogs too.“
“This place is a little hard to find but definitely worth the effort. Great Mexican food and fantastic service. The servings are huge, I think the queso dip could serve 8 people. Margaritas were okay but beers from the giant cooler of beer were cold and refreshing.“
“Can't remember the last bar I went to without any tvs, very refreshing. Great spot to grab a beer and chat. Place was busy and music wasn't too loud. Lots of jackalope decor and pinball machines. Min $10 credit card limit, so bring cash or open a tab (or buy rounds for your friends)!“
“Our first time here a VERY busy place. Although we had a reservation, we still waited over 20 minutes to be seated. However, our waitress was very friendly and efficient. My salad was excellent! My only concern was that there was hair in our salmon. However, the manager came over and replaced it. There was 13 of us, and our bill was a little over $200, which I thought was reasonable. We will definitely visit it again.“
“From the outside you might wonder what this place is about but when you go inside it is a different story and when you go out back, it is different world. The food was great. The staff was attentive and the chef did a good job. Parking is not easy to find but it is on the still worth the visit for the food. I was the photographer for the Yelp event and it was a good time. Great work by the artist with the walls in the back. Every area told a story.“
“Toro Bar exceeded my expectations with its exceptional service and inviting atmosphere. The staff are friendly and attentive, making sure our experience was enjoyable. The menu offered a delightful variety of drinks. I highly recommend Toro Bar for anyone looking for a great place to chill.“
“This is probably one of the better places I've been at recently. Got a flight with the 60, 90, 120 min IPA. The 120 min was 17% alcohol and tasted like hard liquor more than beer and couldn't finish it. Of course, the rest of the flight was great.I got the Jambalaya and the cajun egg rolls. Everything was excellent and I would highly recommend them. The whole experience from start to finish was perfect, and our waitress was on point.“
“We came in with a group of 8 (that grew to 10) and they were very polite and accommodating. Even with a big group, the waiter took the time to break down the menu because it was our first visitOur food came pretty quickly and everything was delicious.“
“Awesome place, great food, good prices, friendly staff. The kitchen is open late. I had the brussel sprout appetizer, and the beef kabob with rice and mashed potatoes as my entree, and they were all amazing. I will be back.Dietary restrictions: I am celiac and I was able to order gluten free food!“
“Had several different dishes so far and they're all good. You get more authentic Greek dishes that you can't find at other places. Falafel is crispy, but not too dry. Orange cake with honey cinnamon syrup is outstanding. Got the linguine pasta & the first time the veggies were grilled & it added a nice, complex flavor. All of the other times getting that pasta though, the veggies aren't grilled. $22 is a high price point for essentially veggie spaghetti. The grilled veggies are what really elevates it & I wouldn't get it again without that preparation.“
“Excellent tasty food! We ordered a sesame chicken salad and a hamburger, both meats cooked to perfection. The salad needed more mixed greens! Hamburger came well cooked, which is as my husband likes it. The server came and took our order after giving us extra time to survey the menu. He kept an eye on our table to attend to any needs. The wood booths create a warm feeling while the lamps make it cozy without being fussy! We love coming here!“
“Riviera Tapas Bar started off across the street and has been a staple in the Riverdale community for years. Had not been to this new location but finally made it in today for date night! Happy hour is HAPPY! Drinks and food menu for those who want a bargain. Wednesday - Happy Hour is till 8 p.m. Let's get into it! Datiles - Sweet with a salty taste! Yum! Glad my date ordered this! Yummy!!!!!! Gambas al Ajillo - Shrimp with Garlic Butter White Wine Sauce - Super super yummy! Bruselas - Steamed Brussel Sprouts with Garlic & Butter - Oh Yea! Steamed! Wasn't bad at all. Like it! Chuletitas De Cordero - Grilled Herb Lamb Chops with Fingerling Potatoes in a Demi- Glace Sauce - I liked it, my date said it was made Perfectly! Can't opine as I've never tried lamb chops. (Don't judge me) Vieiras A La Plancha- Pan Seared Blackened Scallops with Cauliflower Puree , Pine Nuts, Raisins & Butter Sauce - Exceeds expectations! Drink- Paloma was yummy! The garnish was a bit old tasting but the drink was perfect! My Date tried all sorts of drinks, and had no complaints! Definitely coming back! Love this is just a short walk away from home.“
“On St. Patrick's Day, my mom wanted green beer, so we went to The Barking Dog. The gastropub was filled with sports fanatics. Since alcoholic drinks weren't permitted in the patio area, we were seated at a booth near the bathroom. My brother had an O'Doul's, my fiancé had a Crooked Crab Haze for Days Pale Ale, my parent shared a New Trails Crisp Lager (dyed green), and I had a Green Tea Cocktail. We shared an order of Pub Pretzels, which was served warm and with a spicy cheese dipping sauce.“
“The food was good menu selection was good and the service was excellent. This is my first time eating in the Potomac location and I must say that I was quite surprised by the service and menu selection considering that my experience in the north Bethesda location was really awful. Thank you, Potomac gringos and mariachis for restoring my confidence and your food and brand.“
“Such a wonderful fun atmosphere! Top notch comedians. Laugh for two hours. My first time being here, but will definitely be a regular. Friendly cozy and on top of that made new friends! We ate before the show at the restaurant and could bring our drinks in plastic cups to the show. Thank You Laugh Riot for best start of our weekend!“
“There's Cheers in Boston, MA and there's Fusion Bar and Grill (FBG) in Cloverly, MD. Both establishments where everyone knows your name. FBG is the quintessential neighborhood/dive bar, nestled in between Silver Spring and Olney. FBG has various bar foods, specials depending on the day, and Happy Hour ALL DAY LONG on Sunday. All menu items well well-priced and fairly portioned.Support your local business!“
“Nice place, good tables and equipment, good food, and great service from the staff. It's tucked back in a hole behind a cigar shop, but worth the search. It's a pool hall with a bar, instead of a bar with a few pool tables, so the crowd seems more serious about playing and having a good time. I've been there a few times, and see myself coming back, easily.“
“I recently visited Blue 44 for lunch, and overall, I found it to be a decent dining experience. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, providing a comfortable setting for a midday meal. The menu offered a variety of options, and the food quality was satisfactory, with flavors that pleased the palate. However, I couldn't help but notice that the prices were a bit on the higher side for the portion sizes and offerings provided. While I enjoyed my meal, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was paying a premium for what I received. That said, Blue 44 is still worth a try if you're in the area and looking for a nice lunch spot with decent food, albeit at slightly elevated prices.“
“My family loves this place. They consistently exceed our expectations and bend over backwards to make sure their customers are happy. We have some picky eaters in our crew and we can all find something. The French onion soup is delicious. The waffle on top was so special. I wouldve liked a few more! The duck roll app is one to try if you're interested in it. You honestly can't go wrong with any of the food here.“
“I love this place. The staff are fantastic at calming things down when playtime gets too rowdy or when one dog seems overwhelmed, and they clean up any waste right away. It's really obvious that everyone who works here really loves dogs, and they welcomed my dog Murphy like family! I also appreciate how organized they are about immunization records because it makes me feel safer about all the interaction my dog gets here. Murphy always comes home happy and tuckered out! I'm a happy annual member.“

“This spot seems like a local institution. They had live music- two guitarists playing in the background. The atmosphere was perfect and the food was really tasty as well. The restaurant is underground with no windows but the murals and lighting make it seem as if you’re transported to Portugal. Overall, an older clientele but a lovely spot.Parking: There’s a free parking lot for customers to use.Wheelchair accessibility: There’s a ramp to enter the restaurant to accommodate those in wheelchairs.“
“We were staying next door to the Flavor Garden and came in for breakfast on our first day in DC, the service was good, the good was so good. I keep thinking about the scrambled eggs! They tasted freshly scrambled and made out of real eggs, and seriously the best eggs I have had in my life! The french toast and bacon were also good but not as good as those eggs! We returned that evening for dinner and my husband and I both had the burgers. They were the best ever! Great flavor and texture and so savory. I also had one of the best margaritas I have ever had and all in all really good filling meals! I wish we got a chance to go again before we left DC. Believe me when I tell you go check them out!“
“Highly recommended sitting at the bar!! We chatted with the bartender Nick most of the night and he made us some of the best cocktails (N/A ones too). Lots of great options and phenomenal service. Definitely want to come back.Dietary restrictions: They were meticulous with making sure nothing was served to me that had nuts in it!“
“Service is much better if you're not dining solo -- I've done both, and believe me, it's a big difference. Menu is limited but the food is usually pretty good, if you can get someone to notice you're there. On my last visit, the only person who saw that I hadn't been waited on was a kind bus person, but I had already lost my appetite and left.“
“This was a fantastic Italian restaurant. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, the food was amazing, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.I came here on a date. The staff gave us a great table. We could really take in the atmosphere and it wasn't loud where they put us, so we could easily have a conversation.I had the daily specials. All of them. I stuffed myself to capacity. It was great. The wine pairing was recommended by the waiter and it was a perfect compliment to the meal. My date was a vegetarian and the staff happily worked with her to ensure her order fit her dietary restrictions. I will definitely be coming back.“
“I've been here many times. It's a fantastic bar with great happy hour. Some o the best cocktails that I've had in the city. The staff are always very friendly. The ambiance is great for catching up with a friend on a week night or having a rowdier time on a weekend night.“
“Everything was tops from parking to food service. Thank you. Thank you James Clark from food service for going above to make sure my dining experience was enjoyable and your service was top notch. Thank you for your professionalism and attention to detail.“
“I’ve been seeing this restaurant for years and we finally tried it recently. We really were missing out!! Every single item of food that we ordered was absolutely delicious. The service was wonderful and they were so kind and patient with our toddler. They have a great coloring sheet option for kids with crayons and she was distracted for big chunk of time, which was great for us. I really do love it when a restaurant thinks about their younger customers. Really appreciated that. The atmosphere is great and felt very cozy and welcoming. Not too loud, not too quiet — just right. Seating was ample and there was no wait since we were there on a weekday for dinner. We’ll definitely be back soon!“
“Friendly service and delicious food. I came in for dinner early on a Monday. I was welcomed in and promptly seated by a window in the bar, which is a cute area- colorful pillows and a comfy bench sit against the wall. The food itself was hot and delicious. I got the chicken tikka makhani and garlic naan. I wasn't asked spice level, and it was definitely milder than I'm used to, but great flavor. I'm sure they would have accommodated if you like it really spicy (I personally don't like to set my tongue ablaze, so I was good). The portion was just right for me to finish everything with no leftovers and be perfectly full. Definitely would go back for quality Indian food!“
“We needed space and food for 40 plus people for a reception after a funeral. Could not have asked for a smoother, easier and more pleasant handling of our needs.Seth, Liz, and Neil were incredible!From the moment I contacted Seth through the planning and scheduling, to the execution of the event, everything went off without a hitch.I can't thank them enough for all they did for our family.Everyone, including myself loved all the food items we had. Thank you back of the house!!I will be returning, not only for myself, but business meetings as well.Thanks everyone at River Hill Grill.“
“To say I love this place is an understatement. From the management to the bar and wait staff, everything is fantastic. I come here at least twice a week — with rugby, maybe more. I have not only never had a bad meal here, I’ve never had bad service or bad anything. I am so glad to have a place like this in my neighborhood! When I come here, I feel like family. Can’t ask for more than that.“
“ELSI Ethiopian Restaurant offers a truly authentic culinary journey through the flavors of Ethiopia. As soon as you step inside, you're transported to a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere that sets the stage for a memorable dining experience. The food here is nothing short of exceptional, with each dish expertly prepared and bursting with traditional Ethiopian flavors and spices. From the fragrant injera to the richly seasoned stews and savory lentils, every bite is a delight for the palate. The service at ELSI is also worth mentioning, with friendly staff who are passionate about sharing their culture and cuisine with guests. Overall, ELSI Ethiopian Restaurant is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking an immersive and delicious Ethiopian dining experience in Cityville.“
“Great experience. The place is a bit small but wasn’t overcrowded even for a Saturday evening. The people service was fast and very accommodating, I guess that’s the plus side of only having a few tables to service. The atmosphere was nice, and the food was affordable. The only downside is I wish they had happy hour on Saturdays. Most happy hour these days are Mon- Sat if not everyday. It could bring more revenue for the establishment to have happy hour for a few hours on the weekend“
“Fantastic dining experience! The freshness and quality of the meat were outstanding, definitely not your average cheap cuts. The flavor was superb, enhanced by their unique sauces and seasonings. The pineapple steak is my favorite. The attention to detail was evident as they even took Polaroid photos for us to cherish the moment. Can’t believe they have a full bar here! Because most of Korea BBQ place only have half bar. Definitely a good place to hangout with friends or family.“
“Much Better than the Gaithersburg location. We been going to hook & reel in Gaithersburg for 2 years and this was our 1st time at this location. Everything was 10x better. Only downside is this is a 35 min drive when the other location was only 10 min away. Let’s just say We won’t be going back to Gaithersburg again!! Everything here was Amazing!!!“
“We just came back from Azucar and had a great meal, great service in a great atmosphere! Carlos was so attentive and pleasant. All the tables were set perfectly and the glasses just shined like diamonds. Everything is so clean and welcoming. We can't wait to go back. We felt so welcomed and like family...what a great meal! Thank you so much!“
