Restaurants in College Park

“Food choices were amazing and my server was top notch!! There were so many options on the menu. Can't wait to go back. I had the crab dip and the Kona Steak Skewers for apps. Along with Seafood Ravioli as an entree. Oh, the Jameson Whiskey cocktail was delightful as well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Always great customer service and food. Love the cozy atmosphere!”

“Their food is very professionally prepared. It tastes great and I also like their health-conscious options.”

“This place is top tier. It's sports bar meets 5 star restaurant. The food is consistent everytime. The drinks are top notch. Even their rail liquors are quality. This has quickly become one of my favorite spots.”

“I ordered the Lasagna dinner and I The serving was large and the salad was with Balsamic Vinaigrette’s. They also make pizza did not try from the amount of Togo orders it must be good. The management needs to decide are a full fledged Italian restaurant or just a pizza place serving some Italian food. I would go back again.”

“Granted I haven't been to their restaurant locations, their pop-up location that features their food truck in Forestville Plaza is where my mom was blessed to bring some of their food home for the family to try. Quick story, one weekend I was driving by with her in my vehicle and suddenly we smelled a delicious aroma as well as saw smoke coming from the grill. She noted the place in her mind this weekend she was able to venture there. She relayed that they had a good amount of customers ordering food but the personnel was so patient, kind, and helpful. She brought home some grilled chicken, lamb, jollof rice, macaroni and cheese, and green beans. Majority of the meat and jollof rice was in one container, but altogether enough to feed a family of three people with huge appetites. Everything was delicious, but my favorite was their grilled chicken! It paired nicely with their mustard sauces, especially the hot mustard sauce! They also have The most unique and delicious joloff rice I've ever tasted in my life! The taste of Senegal cannot be compared! I've tried other West African food, but Senegalese food stands out like no other! Originally, Ivorian food was my favorite, but now I can add Senegalese food to my new list of favorite West African food! You have to try it - you won't regret it! I look forward to going to one of their restaurant locations!”

“Since Eastern Gourmet has opened it has become our go-to for great Chinese takeout. We have ordered an extensive amount of the menu and there aren't any dishes that haven't blown us away. The food is amazing, the service is attentive, and the prices are quite reasonable for the quality and portion sizes.”

“My first time here , the food was great , Chris the manager came by to check on us great location”

“The best Korean BBQ in the area as far as I am concerned!! The Cyberpunk/Blade Runner feel is the best I have seen in a while!!!🤖🤖”

“Quickly becoming one of my local favorites in College Park.”

“I can not express my love for UMD Dining enough right now! They have stepped in (and up) to cover the food and beverage experience for our patrons at the ArtHouse. Their quality, service, and food offerings are spot on!! Thanks so much!”

“Great location, super nice staff and a super fun time!”

“We had an amazing time here! Delicious food and a really fun karaoke experience. Would recommend!”

“I absolutely love this Smoothie King location. It’s exceptionally clean, great smoothies, and outstanding customer service. I really appreciate Kevin and all of the staff. I frequent this location because of how wonderful the staff members are. I’m here at least 3 to 5 times a week that’s how much I love it! Many of the staff members even know my order my heart lol. Thank you very much to the entire staff!!!!!!!”

“Free 3 hr parking, the best service and the lounge at the lobby bar is fabulous!”

“Great food and great service as always! Thank you for your wonderful and attentive staff! You are always a best choice in the area for our annual holiday breakfast. I enjoy the pleasant staff and wonderful food options. Thank you for being the best in the area!”

“From the moment I stepped into RJ Bentley’s for Happy Hour, I had no idea my life was about to change. But one bite into their signature dish, and it felt like the world stopped spinning. The flavors hit me like pure magic- buttery King’s Hawaiian rolls, juicy chicken fried to perfection, and a nice combo of ranch AND blue cheese on the side. It was as if each ingredient was a spell, cast to awaken my tastebuds from slumber.
Lugnuts I thank you sincerely.”

“The subway location provides exceptional service with friendly staff who are always eager to customize your order. The shop is consistently clean, and the ingredients are fresh and well-stocked. It’s a great spot for a quick, delicious meal on the go.

“This is my 2nd time going to a CAVA location. The first time I dined in. This time I ordered food to go.

The food is Greek Mediterranean. In comparison to Chipotle. I prefer CAVA food. It is definitely healthier.

P.S. I rotated photo. For some reason, the new photo is not displayed. Many apologies.

The service is top notch. It is quick, efficient and served in a reasonable time.

Lastly, it feels like home. If I didnt have to rush out today, I would find a quiet area to sit and relax.”

“After moving from Florida I have been tirelessly searching for a good taco place in Maryland. I was so happy to find Tacos A La Madre! When you go inside it is very under decorated, but clean and they have a good sense of branding with their black and yellow color scheme. The tacos are amazing, flavorful, and consistent every time I go. The ingredients taste fresh. If I had to choose a favorite, it would be the shrimp tacos and the birria tacos! 🌮 This is our new go-to taco place. You have to go- you won’t be disappointed.”

“The pizza is delicious, I can choose my own toppings, the dough is thin so it doesn't give that bloated feeling afterwards, everything is fresh and made on the spot, the place is clean and organized. Thank you!”

“Definitely get all the sauces if you can stand a little heat.

Kid-friendliness: My younger kid…. Not so adventurous so thank goodness for the cheese burger selection.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs- accessible from sidewalk”

“They got fantastic food!

Trust me, although the atmosphere is very basic and even there’s no AC, the food is awesome! Sometimes they will be slow at preparing food when there are more ppl waiting because they only have two chefs. But every food is made fresh, no premade food. I have been there many times and it’s one of my favorites.”

“Friendly staff, seating was clean and store was organized. The bowls were delicious 😋”

“Amazing and courteous staff. Great taste !!!!”

“I’m fairly new to road biking and had just bought a new to me road bike from FB Marketplace. I had sent an email through their contact form which Laurie answered and gave me enough reason to bring my bike to Proteus. I brought my bike in this past Saturday. The first person that greeted me was Paul. He checked over my bike and let me know that my bike was really in great shape and made a few minor adjustments that he didn’t charge me for. He replaced my seat and clipless pedals with flat pedals. Literally everyone in that shop made me feel comfortable and welcome. Laurie, Jeff, Duncan, Andy, Paul, yall are amazing and made me feel at home. I live in DC, but Proteus is my go to bike shop now!”

“Fire boba - weird flavors sometimes but absolutely slaps. if you say 30% sugar, they'll actually give you 30% sugar. I recommend dahongpao cheese foam boba, and mango cheese foam - so good so good.”

“Greatest food place in Maryland with the best vibes!! George & Maria, you are the greatest! Keep up the good work!”

“If you love noodles, you’ll probably want to check this place out. I really liked the atmosphere, and the service was great. That said, I wish they offered more than just noodle dishes. I ordered the beef noodle soup and was disappointed to find only two pieces of broccoli—was hoping for a few more veggies.

The place was packed during our visit, so clearly a lot of people enjoy the food. Personally, it wasn’t for me.”

“I’ve passed by this place for years and finally got around to checking it out. The menu must have changed over the years but I found the salmon tacos are a good sushi alternative. They appear to be in their ramen phase.”

“I tried to go to this location only. It is the original. If you'll notice the other restaurants are Ledo's with an S at the end. Similar signage. Similar pizza. But not as good as THE one on Knox Road. If you can go there you won't be disappointed. Parking meters.

2024 UPDATE -- apparently Ledo's did do the right things when they franchised. So I feel like I could go to any of them. I don't think I've had any bad pizza there. Always tasty!”

“The Pizza was provided by the AMA club which was cool. The food was quick to arrive. The Pizza was still hot which is always good. The pizza was so delicious I think I am going to start going to Paisano's Pizza. I want to see how it is to dine in.”

“We absolutely love coming here every Sunday to bring a pizza to our grandma, who always requests it. The prices are also so great and the owners are always personable and kind to us. We are so thankful for their wonderful service!”

“Good food, good customer service. Best place to get Asian food in College Park.”

“We had a wonderful experience at the best tacos that we’ve ever had in DC here! Esmeralda was a wonderful waitress and the environment was super fun and authentic!”

“She's great for all of your needs when it comes to cooking”

“The service was above and beyond tonight. The game guru did a great job finding and teaching us just the right game.”

“Service with a smile ! Served quickly, encouraged to relax Highly recommended”

“I haven’t been home to DC area in about 8 years and my first stop was to get some chicken wings with mambo sauce and fries. We decided to try Eddie’s since it was nearby where we were staying! The food came out perfect! My family and I was very pleased! Next time we visit DC area from Oklahoma, we will definitely stop by to Eddies to grab some food! No complaints! My wife and daughter was very satisfied with everything as well! Shrimp and fried rice was good too!”

“My first time getting food from The Kabob Joint. I got the boneless chicken kabob platter and it was tasty with good portion sizes. My only complaint is that I didn’t receive the sauce I ordered (tamarind chutney) so I had to eat it dry.”

“Loving the quesadillas, guacamole and tacos so far. The crispy shrimp tacos were my fav.”

“You can reach out �� #HerbalistOmoke for immediate treatment for any kind of health issues both viruses, diseases and infections I dare recommend to you him for total cure �thank y'll ���”

“The food was awesome as this was my first time trying it. I HIGHLY recommend dinning here as it will not disappoint. Not to mention the employees were extremely polite and happy to help make recommendations for toppings and such. Will definitely be back!”

“Unique, tasty, affordable, convenient cuisine!”

“Amazing Food!! and Great Service!!”

“Great sushi! Great location. Great deal with the maki combo got 24 pieces for 17 bucks. Staff was so nice and friendly. This will be my new sushi spot on campus ?”

“Hands down the best bagels I have had in Maryland (and I have tried many spots). Fun to watch the old school bagel baking process while waiting in line. Highly recommend for bagel snobs and foodies. I will be back, but I will be ordering ahead next time- as can be said of any great food spot, the line and wait can be quite long. 🥯🥖”

“Oh the memories!! I can remember my Mom taking me for ice ream here back in the 60’s and 70’s. It was a special treat. My Mom loved their Coffee Flavored ice cream.”

“I am not sure if the kiosk is not reliable or it's user error. I have tried twice to use it but the second time I focused on accurately adding the amount of sugar I wanted but it didn't go through because the barista served my coffee with no sugar and looking at the receipt it didn't have any sugar amount. She begrudgingly added the sugar for me.The coffee is always tasty.”

“This place was really great. Dined in and ordered a large veggie pizza. They didn't stiff on the veggies like some places do, and the crust was so good. Nice service too!”

“EVERYTHING!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍”

“I’ve been to Tokoa about a dozen times now and every time I order their house cheesesteak. The problem is that this house cheesesteak changes about twice a month. I’ve seen it go from “The Steak” to “TK Cheesesteak” a handful of times now. With every name change, the sandwich itself changes too.

Last month, when it was “The Steak”… Holy Jeebus. It was probably the greatest meaty amalgamation one could ever ask for. It had tender, perfectly seasoned chunks of steak, lettuce, tomato, house sauce, melted garlic butter and it was topped with fried onions. I must’ve ordered this sandwich about 5 times in the span of a week or two. I even made a fool of myself and tried to order a large size (which they didn’t have for this version). I would do anything for that sandwich.

As of this month, it’s back to the “TK Cheesesteak”. This is your typical thinly-sliced steak with provolone and the usuals. Is it more true to a real Philly cheesesteak? Sure, and it’s still a pretty damn good one.

But nothing compares to “The Steak”.

I can’t speak to the rest of the menu, but it’s clear that the food here is made-to-order, super fresh, and sprinkled with love. Good stuff.”

“After sampling several places when we moved to the area, this is by far our favorite place for Chinese food take-out. I was on a quest for the best boneless spare ribs and so far this is it. The quality has been consistent and delicious. We order for delivery frequently and of course stop by anytime we're at the game shop in the same plaza.

I'll use pork fried rice (my husband's staple order) as an example. You won't find tiny little scrap bits of pork here.. no, no - you'll get actual pieces. The vegetables - an often overlooked and disrespected part of any takeout menu - actually have color to them and still look fresh. The rice still has some life left in it instead of being hard, oily, and overcooked. It feels like genuine care was put into assembling this classic dish that so many other establishments just phone in.”

“I would love to give a standing ovation to vaynia she made things smoother during a rush I can see. However whoever is her manager locks the bathroom door and is highly rude. Vanynia and excuse if I spell her name wrong; was the star. As a customer asking to use a bathroom and you have it lock with and employees only sign. With inside eating? The only reason why I give four star s is for Vanynia. She was the most polite. I would recommend her for a promotion but she doesn’t deserve dealing with your previous managers bullshit”

“Wow! It was my first, and definitely not my last, Ramen dinner. This place is unassuming, and fast-food-looking. But after that, the servers were helpful. The choices were overwhelming, and took some Google searches to understand. But the second I ordered from the app the delicious food was at my table. The dumplings (Gyoza) were a hit- soft, and tasty. My son had the Salmon Ongiri, a crazy combination of our parent's spam, salmon, an egg between seaweed/rice outside. He raved. Somehow, separately, be both ordered a tankotsu pork broth ramen named Aka Oni Karaka. If you like the umami satisfying taste, this is it. (I took some of the chili spice out and added it a little at a time.) This place is worth the visit.”

“great music. food and drinks, very pleasant”

“A wonderful thing to have inside one of the most popular buildings at UMD. They have all the quick bites and drinks you can ask for; a great addition to the space!”

“I can not express my love for UMD Dining enough right now! They have stepped in (and up) to cover the food and beverage experience for our patrons at the ArtHouse. Their quality, service, and food offerings are spot on!! Thanks so much!”

“No frills, so flavorful and fresh!! Generous, well-seasoned portions. The tacos were tasty and the fried yuca was nice and crispy. The horchata was also good (not pictured). Absolutely going back!”

“when I ordered an iced mocha latte with oat milk, I didn't expect to meet God. but I did. I tasted heaven. how did they do it? I can't question such divinity. thank you, coffee bar. thank you. I want to live again.”

“I love this place! Last affordable place in college park to get a great sandwich and good coffee. Employees are always fast and good natured. It is also a good place to get some work done and it’s always clean. Summer business hours are different than school year and on Google so keep an eye out”

“Solid choice for Thai deliciousness without the long flight. Thier pad thai is so good- even when ordered not spicy! And their curry puffs are always SO GOOD! Thank you for being our neighbors!”

“Came to visit my friend my friend at UMD and came across a gem right next to campus. The owner he gave me a discount and he was so nice to talk with. Also the food is amazing”

“The Food was super good and he was super nice and very cozy inside but the only problem I have is that I don't really like the hours he only works and on Saturday it says he was open he never was that's the only thing that's wrong and I wish he was open on weekends”

“Dear Doghaus,
I love this place so much. It is my favorite restaurant in college park. My only complaint is that the volcano sauce sour beer was taken away from the menu. Please bring it back. 5 stars if u do.
Thanks, hope you change this soon.”

“Kid-friendliness: No kid size ice cream, but the Rainbow Roll was perfect for my rainbow loving 3YO. It was fun to watch them roll the ice cream - made it more of an outing than just buying ice cream.”

“Great food! Great customer service.”
