“Omg, District Falafel - what a real treat! As a Palestinian, I rarely eat at ME restaurants cause it's easier, less disappointing and always better to just go to mom's! My sister/friend introduced me to this place and I enjoyed it so much that I will even tackle the beltway to go into Bethesda from VA! The manager (M'hammad)/counter/table (Edwin?) staff were extremely nice, friendly, patient and just really kind! Pricing was quite reasonable & the same regardless of lunch/dinner - a real bonus. Easy parking, casual and just the right size inside. We had an amazing set of beautifully presented dishes before us incl: Adas soup (thinner than I'm used to, but SUPER delicious!), the falafel was so fantastic that I took a few dozen home to share w/family (will definitely try the spicier ones on next visit!), chicken shawarma & kifteh were nicely flavored & tender, and all the side dishes, hummus, baba ghannouj, salads, pickled items, pita bread hit the mark. Thank you for everything - Can't wait to come back!“

“Best place EVER!! I came here for the first time with my parents and the food was AMAZING and everyone that works there is really nice and it’s overall a really good place to eat at. Cafe Sophie also has a very calm atmosphere and everything overall is just AWESOME! I ❤️ Cafe “
“I have worked with Silk Road on multiple occasions for catering large events. The service and food has always been excellent, with a wonderful personal touch. Guests, even those who haven’t yet experienced Central Asian cuisine, always leave happy (and full).Vegetarian options: Hearty salads, pumpkin manti (dumplings), grilled veggies.“
“Our new favorite taco spot, hands down. Came down to Gaithersburg to go to an unrelated shop which was unfortunately closed; a bit bummed, we looked around, and found this absolute gem.My SO says the SOB tacos remind her of a good, home cooked meal, and I found the chicken reuben to be just as excellent, juicy without being sloppy.My SO also said the margarita was as close to perfect as possible, and I thought the aviation tasted excellent as well.I’m really glad the other place we initially came to this area for was closed, else we may not have stumbled onto S&G. Great food, everyone was friendly. Bit of a drive for folks close to Baltimore (like us), but we’re going to start making it, because this place is THAT good.Parking: Parking on Main Street is competitive during busy hours, but it’s free, and you should be able to find parking within a block or so.“
“Everything so delicious here. Feel like I am in Thailand. อร่อยทุกอย่างเลยค่ะ เหมือนอยู่เมืองไทย ขอบคุณพี่ไก่ ที่พามาทานค่ะ ❤️“
“Food is fairly fresh. They get your food out quick. I think their prices are not too unreasonable either for the area.My only complaint was I saw one piece of hair in my food. It wasn't my hair (different color) but that sort of thing happens when you order from a restaurant.“
“Authentic Greek food, amazing ambiance, and kind customer service? What more could you ask for? This restaurant serves amazing Greek food and you can tell they care about the food they serve and are very customer focused. I'm currently in town visiting but I know what restaurant is going to be my regular whenever I'm in town If you haven't visited, you need to, and get their famous gyro pita! You will NOT regret it“
“Some of the best burgers and fries I have ever had at a restaurant. You would think anyone could make a burger but they are easy to mess up. These are massive, all of the ingredients were fresh, perfectly prepared and portioned.Live bands on Friday nights to add to the atmosphere. Drinks were also very unique and creative.Parking: In a small shopping lot with other stores but one large shared parking lot. Big enough area out front to park and run in for take-away.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu with plenty of options.“
“I accidentally added crazy feta to my vegan order when I ordered cava remotely. After I picked up the food, I realized at home my mistake. Then, when I called the cava branch explaining my mistake, Arceli (staff at the time) was more than willing to help me reorder which she did with amazing hospitality and professional manner. And when I went to pick up my new order, I showed her the wrong meal first and understandingly she made me new one on the spot quickly. I love this store, and the staff. I recommend anyone to come here and not just order the good food but also appreciate their excellent service.“
“I tried it today for the first time. The food was great, but the best part of my visit was the staff! They were so excited to hear it was my first time there and helped me pick my food. They suggested I try all 6 of the sauces which were all delicious! I will definitely be back soon !“
Asian Fusion • $
“Love the Asian Fusion Bowls with the tasty big flavors Salads with Asia flavor, they have kimchi, purple rice, Asian spiced meats and dressings. It's one of my favorite places in the Rockville/Bethesda Area. When I'm in the mood for a salad with pizazz, this is the place I go. I get the child-size for lunch and the full size salad for dinner. The service is good, the last time I stopped by, I received a free miso soup. Thank you, for the generosity.I love their variety of teas and juices. They have table downstairs, tables upstairs and some outside. One of my favorite dessert that they offer, is the coconut milk pudding, it's so creamy and delicious. I hope they bring this back soon. Located on the outer edge of the Pike and Rose neighborhood, and close by to the garage this is a lunch favorite pick up spot for me. I can't wait until Spring when they have table outside and I'll be able to enjoy my lunch and watch the crowd go by.“
“I had dinner here last night. Our waitress overheard me and my friend discussing the safety of my E Bike parked outside. She came over and told me I can bring it inside the restaurant and park it near the door, so I could keep an eye on it. I was very impressed and grateful. I highly recommend this restaurant.“
“Delish! Even gluten free Mac & cheese. I thought ‘why not give it a try?’ Happy I did.Parking: Easy to find at intersection of Old Georgetown Road and Democracy Blvd in Bethesda.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking and ramp for wheelchair.“
“Excellent customer service and yummyFresh food from Downtown silver spring Cava. I usually get chicken bowl and the food is amazing the ingredients are always fresh and especially Vicky, she has been a phenomenal manager. Always super friendly and helpful. This cava is amazing, great atmosphere as well. Yo I recommend this location to anyone in the Downtown silver spring area!!“
“It's me again I ordered a lot today for my family and we loved everything. Slyvie and her husband are amazing. I love this hidden gem deli spot. I love their food so much!! The service is always perfect everytime I go!! They do such an amazing job. It's such a homey shop. I love coming here. Slyvie her husband and team are so kind. Thank you sooo much always for everything and we love your food“
“My newest obsession! Dig is a new spot in Bethesda with healthy home-style concept. The employees are amicable and welcoming. It was my first time at Dig, but the employees were helpful and patient. The food was displayed like cava or chipotle; you get to pick as you go down the line. I order half of the greens, brown rice, charred broccoli, cucumber and tomato salad, and charred chicken. They have a variety of sauces, but I ended up getting the pesto and garlic aioli. The chicken was very flavorful and juicy. The broccoli was pretty good; it had a nice texture and lemon flavor. Overall, the food was super yummy, and the portions were perfect. My coworkers got the salmon and the crispy chicken with different sides. I will definitely be trying the other sides when I go back! We all enjoyed our meals, and this will be our new lunch spot! A great healthy option with a home-style feel!“

“This is my favorite Cava I have ever been too. The service is always fantastic and super friendly. Me and my coworkers go to this cava designation multiple times a week during our lunch break and never have an issue with the food or service. Thank you cava team!!“
“Tasty food with excellent vegetarian options. Choose your options (conveniently displayed and explained by helpful staff) and enjoy. Really really good.Vegetarian options: Eggplant, falafel, hummus, cheese, grains, salad. Ask the helpful staff for recommendations.“
“We ordered some take out for dinner tonight. Hubby and I got the Nashville sandwich, medium heat. Great amount of heat, I liked the pickled onions in the slaw and the addition of jalapeño. The bun was soggy, but beyond that things were good. The fries were interesting. Some were very cooked, some under cooked. They were tasty, but needed consistency. My kiddos got club chicken sandwiches and wings. The two that got the clubs said they would try something different next time. Hubby said the sandwich couldn't compare to another place we frequent. He wasn't a big fan of the slaw, since he doesn't like vinegar.“
“I’d probably say unless you go to a place like rays that specialize in fancy burgers, but are looking for a quick bite and burger I recommend eating here. These burgers by far, are fantastic compare to food chains. It even beats five guys ( and I love five guys). The flavor is fantastic. Highly recommended if you looking for a good burger without braking the bank.“
“I can't believe I'm just finding out about this place. I literally work right next to it. My co worker told me about this spot and now I'm hooked. They serve breakfast and lunch and it's busy. It's busy for a reason. At first if you drive up you won't see it, there is a door in the back where you can get inside from but there is a walkway through some small bushes. Haha you can go inside the office building to get here too but the back way is easier. They have so many options to choose from. They have snacks, muffins,drinks. Sandwiches and pancakes. This is a one stop shop. I got their tuna wrap and it was good. My coworkers rave about their Ruban sandwich and go there weekly just for that. Customer service is top notch! This is one of those sneaky deli shops that you have to try out! No regret!“

“We used to go here all the time for sushi in the 90's since it was hands down the best in the area. After moving away 30 years ago, we found ourselves back in Germantown again and decided to see if it was still the same. I'm happy to say is it still as PHENOMENAL as ever!!! Again, by far the best sushi in Germantown, and quite possibly the best in the DC metro area! For reference, I was stationed in Japan for a year in the military and while I don't profess to be an expert, I definitely know good sushi. They still have the same fast and friendly service and cost is what I would I'll consider a great bargain considering the current economy. The volcano rolls are a must try. Highly recommend!!!“
“We were having dinner with friends in Bethesda, but got there early so we decided to stop by this place for a margarita before going to the dinner. We had some spicy skinny margaritas and chips and salsa. Both the margaritas and the chips were great. We cannot speak to the rest of the menu, but will likely come back to try it out.“
“In the years it was gone after the fire I missed it so much so many memories of ordering and eating to watch big sports event or just hang out with friends. Their food always been on point. It’s always hot ready to go and the staff there is good very good I would recommend going therelike for me multiple times a week but for the average whatever once a week to week sounds good for you beginner lol“
“I stopped here because of hunger & craving pizza. ? I got a medium but after tasting it, I should have purchased a large!! This pizza is soooo good!! Will be stopping again the next time I'm in town!!Parking: The parking lot is very congested due to other businesses in the same area.“
“My husband and I come here at least 3 times a week and the staff know us know lol. We love this restaurant so much! The wings are perfect! The brussel sprout salad with grilled shrimp is also one of our faves. My husband also loves their oyster rockefeller, and their raw oysters. The people are nice and the atmosphere is great! I will take more pictures next time we go, which will likely be in a few days!Wheelchair accessibility: This is a wheelchair accessible restaurant.“
“I love CAVA of Shady Grove! To stat the employees are really friendly and the restaurant is super clean. The food I fresh and the choices are just great! I’m on a low calorie diet, and I love that I can have such a great choice with their bowls.“
“#CeliacReviews: While visiting DC, went here 2x. Beside the menu being 100% gluten-free, it’s absolutely delicious. I cannot complain about anything and I want to sing Bibibop’s praises:? Varied menu including set bowls (vegetarian option) and make your own- all big portions for a very reasonable price!? I was so happy I could finally have japchae (sweet potato noodles) and bulgogi (seasoned beef) again without worry.? Food was fresh and tasted just as good the next day.? Free miso soup in store!!? The GF chocolate chip cookie was delicious, and my non-GF friends also thought so.?? Staff was extremely friendly, pleasant and helpful during both visits!? Great rewards app, even got a free bowl.Pictured: Bibibop fan favorite & make your own bowl with their take on bulgogi.Dietary restrictions: 100% gluten-free restaurant with Korean and Japanese influences.“
“Stella Pointe restaurant offers a great dining experience with its combination of excellent food and stellar service. The quinoa and steak wrap exceeded expectations. The steak salad was great, with fresh ingredients and a perfect balance of flavors. The wings were a highlight, exceptionally tasty and cooked to perfection. The plating/presentation was surprisingly on point. We rounded off our meal with the indulgent funnel cake fries, a sweet and crispy treat that left us thoroughly satisfied. Throughout our visit, the staff exhibited professionalism and attentiveness, contributing to an overall positive experience. Stella Pointe truly shines with its delicious offerings and top-notch service. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable casual dining experience.“
“Honeygrow restaurant always cooks my stir fry meal ? to perfection and the ingredients always taste fresh. The restaurant is clean and the service is quick. The kiosk machine is easy to use in order to place your order. The staff are helpful and always very friendly to speak with.“
“This is a very nice little restaurant, the people are always friendly. It is decorated nicely and is always clean. Your burger is made to order, so it takes a little longer to be served. They wrap the burger in paper so you can hold and eat it without touching the bun. They have soft drinks and 2 fountain drinks, strawberry lemonade, and a passion fruit drink. They also have self-serve hot peppers and lemons and limes.Parking: The restaurant has a small ot, but you can park in the shopping center lot too.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“We came here with some friends who went to the original location in New Haven, CT. They were thrilled to see this one open at the Montgomery Mall near their home. For my wife and I, we just wanted good, old fashioned American pizza with many toppings since we live in Germany. We get great pizza there, but the pepperoni is clearly different and toppings are limited. The service here was good, but nothing special. The pizza was very tasty and had plenty of toppings on the Special with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, mushrooms, peppers, and onions. The glass of wine was a let down, especially for the price. All in all, a hearty lunch with pizza to take home for another meal.Kid-friendliness: Great for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor with no stairs.“
“Quick breakfast/lunch place! We got two subs and two drinks for lunch, which costed lesser than $20. The service is very good, friendly and efficient, so even if you see many people in the store, you won't wait much. For a wrap, I could choose a wrap type so I had green spinach rather than regular wheat or other types. The ingredients were super fresh, and the portion was also great. Way way way better than going to Subway, which doesn't have fresh ingredients or offer this price. There are a range of sub menus so I would try another one again. There are two tables inside and many outdoor seatings outside.“

“If you work nearby and don't feel like dealing with the food court at the Mall, then this is the spot for you! I usually eat here once a week, and the sandwiches are delicious. They have all types of sandwiches, a hot bar, a salad bar, and tons of beverages. Everything you would want from a deli/cafe. More importantly, the staff is friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend.p.s. i picked up this oat milk coffee from there, and it tastes amazing!“
“We got to go there for the first time in December when relatives took us there. We did not have to wait long and got a seat right off although the place was busy.They had a great beer selection and the plates we split were excellent as was our server.They had a great 'take-out' selection of craft beers. I checked many of the expiration dates, and unlike many of these specialty beer stores, their selection was current as well as varied, I want to go back again during our next visit.“
“Fantastic food. Like, subscribe, and smash that delivery button. So delicious. Order the drunken noods. You won't regret it. Now, this...**_Soliloquy of the Drunken Thai Noodles_***(The stage is dimly lit. A single spotlight illuminates a steaming bowl of noodles center stage.)***Noodle**: *(in a slurred, noodle-like voice)*Oh, woe is me! A tangled mess of rice and spice, swimming in the murky broth of my own existence. I, the humble Thai noodle, once firm and resolute, now sway like a drunken sailor on choppy seas.**Broth**: *(gurgling)*Noodle, why dost thou lament? Is it the fiery chili that burns thy delicate strands? Or perhaps the fragrant lemongrass that whispers secrets of distant lands?**Noodle**: *(swirling in the broth)*Nay, 'tis not the spices that trouble my starched soul. It is the fate that binds me to this ceramic vessel—a vessel that cradles the sorrows of countless hungry souls. I am but a fleeting pleasure, a fleeting slurp, lost in the labyrinth of taste buds.**Bean Sprouts**: *(poking their heads above the surface)*Hark! The noodle speaks truth. We, too, are but ephemeral beings, born from the soil, sprouting forth to dance upon this savory stage. Our crunch, our freshness—it matters not. We, too, shall drown in the broth of oblivion.**Basil Leaves**: *(rustling)*Yet, dear noodle, dost thou not see? Our destiny lies not in the depths of this bowl, but in the hearts of those who consume us. For with each chopstick wielded, with each slurp, we become memories—fragments of flavor etched into their souls.**Noodle**: *(twirling)*Ah, sweet basil, your wisdom transcends the steam rising from this cauldron. But tell me, when the last chopstick descends, when the final drop of broth is drained, what then? Shall we be forgotten, lost in the haze of drunken revelry?**Broth**: *(bubbling)*Fear not, my noodle friend. For even as the bowl empties, our essence lingers—a hint of lemongrass on parted lips, a memory of warmth on a cold winter's night. We are sustenance and sentiment, nourishing both body and soul.**Noodle**: *(swaying)*Then let us embrace our fate, fellow ingredients! Let us revel in the slurps, the stumbles, the laughter that accompanies our descent. For we are more than mere sustenance; we are poetry in a porcelain bowl, a symphony of flavors that echoes through time.*(The spotlight fades, leaving only the aroma of Thai spices lingering in the air.)*“
“I ordered the breakfast special "French Toast with a choice of meat, for me it was the bacon and Home Fries". The breakfast was excellent and it came out quickly. I ate their as there was ample room. I would highly recommend this location. For under $10.00 you can't go wrong. The food was excellent, the service was great and Daisy the owner has a great personality. Service with a smile!“
“I recently visited the location and I must say Inwas well pleased. I am from NC originally and my Lady is from NY. We both have a passion for food. She owns her own catering business and I am a southern food specialist. We both are in agreement that hands down this is the best restaurant we have tried in the DMV.Heres why. The aesthetic was very appealing to the eye and that is very rare for smaller restaurant in my opinion. They took the time to make the space invititing. Secondly the wait staff was dressed nicely and very nice and assisted with the menu choices. Thirdly the management and host was very welcoming and greeted us well and engaged in conversation when possible. That is a 10 in my book.Last but certainly not least the food was cooked to perfection and not just a carbon copy dish. We asked for the chef to visit out table and he was very humble. He is definitely a hidden gem in the DMV. He deserves to be known around the globe.I would recommend this for a nice date night experience. Please make a reservation and get there early because parking is limited in the immediate area. I parked a block away but it was well worth it.“
“a very nice restaurant with a rare quieter corner where you can have a conversation with friends. Vegetarian options were ok . Minestrone soup made with chicken stock. Cold rainy day a nice soup would be good . Will go back again. Very friendly and attentive staff“
“Love this deli, the husband and wife team make delicious breakfasts and lunch time goodies. Dont miss there freshly baked daily cookies! Friday Chicken paradise sandwich is my favorite, ooh and french toast combo in the morning ,mumm , guess I have multiple favorites.^.^Check them out the next time you go to Shady Grove Fertility, great place to hang out during your parters egg retrieval!#shadygrovefertility“
“This Sweetgreen is very clean and exceptionally well managed. The staff took the time to provide my daughter with plastic bags to protect her new uggs from the rain, and they held onto and returned the wallet she left there. So very kind - wonderful people.“
“This place is terrible! I went there on a whim but was shocked when I realized they copied jeans deli. If your near Nabi’s, just go to jeans. For the price I expect 20x better than jeans. Edit: After switching my lunch to more Nabis than Jeans, I have to revoke everything I said about them. Nabis is a wonderful place to have a nice lunch and converse with some strangers. W Nabis“
“I love Cava! It was my first time at this location. It was very clean and service was quick. The food is very fresh and tasty at this particular location. They didn't have the Roma tomatoes this time but the mix they had was good though. I got the avocado on my bowl this time because It actually looked fresh and wasn't browning. I did notice that they keep the seeds of the avocado in the pan instead of throwing It away like other locations. I wonder why though? I'm thinking It must help keep the others fresh. Bowls typically run from $11 - $15 depending on what protein & extras you're getting. I'd definitely eat here again if I'm in the area.“
“Decided to swing by with my boyfriend for savor Bethesda! They had an amazing deal for lunch (weekends only) for an appetizer, lunch and a canoli $20 per person. We both ordered buffalo wings (A+), he ordered the multi carni and I the salsiccia. I preferred the multi carni a bit more with the amount of protein it came with. Handcut fries were ok, a bit too chunky for me so it didn't taste like the potato was cooked all the way through. Service was amazing. Both the host and waitress were friendly and checked on us several times to make sure we were comfortable. There's inside and outside seating (within a tent). The inside of the restaurant is a bit smaller with a cozy bar and outside seating has several heaters to keep it warm. 100% would return here.“
“Late night salad run and It was really good. The "Kale Caesar" is always my go to w/ "heavy" dressing. However, I'm not a huge fan of their chicken; It's plain and I think It could be cooked some more. Overall the inside is clean and they deliver quick and efficient service.“
“A wonderful visit for our large group! We inquired about a reservation for our group of teenage girls and their families to stop in after our team played a lacrosse game in the area. They were ready for us upon our arrival and treated us very well. The service was fast and friendly. The regular menu is large, and since we were there during brunch hours, we had those options too - the food was delicious. And the adult beverages did not disappoint! The girls all enjoyed their meals and so did the families. Thank you so much for hosting us! We highly recommend and will definitely be back next time we are in the area.“
“Such wholesome employees. My food was delivered but they were missing an item. So they wrote me a little note on a bag with the refund, and gave me an extra bagel and cream cheese. That was thoughtful and sweet. Thank you for going the extra mile in situations that are not in your hands. Just beautiful, I smiled reading that note.“
“Food is good and staff is friendly. But this is the second time I’ve ordered and paid for avocado and haven’t gotten it on my meal. I wish they could be like qdoba and not charge for it. Then I wouldn’t have to be so frustrated about them not including it.“
“First and foremost, let’s talk about the food. It’s not just good—it’s exceptional. Each dish is crafted with care and attention to detail, resulting in flavors that dance on your palate.
