Restaurants in Gaithersburg

“The best chaat Place in my eatery list. Must try their "ROYAL CHAAT". One of the best place to have Indian food.”

“Tasty and healthy food that comes in a hearty portion! I got a vegetarian build your own bowl and my partner got the BBq chicken and chicken shawarma build your own bowl - both delicious and we loved the topping such as the pineapple salsa. Amazing service. We will be back again to support this wonderful local business.”

“Classic Bakery made a delicious and beautiful birthday cake for a special birthday celebration!! My lactose free requedt was honored and handled with care. My friend was delighted with her birthday surprise. Thank you, ɔBakery”

“Without a doubt the best place in Rio. The customer service is exceptional and the staff really pays attention to you as a person, not just a customer. The food is excellent and the place is well maintained.”

“Consistently delicious food (great fish), fun atmosphere, good service.”

“first time here, the staff was very welcoming. food was fresh and delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more items”

“The BEST VALUE all-you-can-eat place! Excellent, fresh food and clean!!! (even their women's bathroom is clean!) And great services, especially Amy! By the way, it is hard for me to believe this restaurant does not get 5 stars! We travel all the way from VA to this place at least two times a month. We just love it!!! P.S. I read the reviews that did not give them 5 stars and feel those reviews may not be fair to them. As an example, one review gave them a 4-star commenting food is great, quality is great, but expensive. Yes, if you compare this place with most cheap Chinese all you can ear places, $33 does seem expensive. However, fresh and high-quality food cost me. I am willing to pay extra for good, fresh food. As another example, I was shocked to see a review giving them only 3 stars commenting she got sick (even though she said she loved the food there). I was wondering if she did not cook her food well in the hot pot, or she couldn't handle the spices.”

“We had a real tradition al family style soup meal. The snakehead fish was very tasty and perfectly done. The cucumber salad was amazing. The fresh watermelon juice was perfect to cool the heat of the soup.”

“Great food and service, but disappointed that they have been out of AC for two months. They need to tell their customers at the door before they are seated. Not right especially if customers have respiratory issues. Some in the restaurant that day were experiencing discomfort Stay away from the Rockville Location until they fix the AC”

“This place is the absolute BEST!!!”

“Great atmoshere, high-end stylish dining room, comfortable seating. The salmon dish was delicious and a large portion. The spinach rice side dish was so delicious! The Ravini Politiko, coconut cake was the best I ever ate! The Thalissina, seafood pasta had plenty of seafood in it and delicious. Even the cappaccino was delicious, very smooth, no bitterness and taste great with dessert! The server, Baris, was attentive, friendly and did a great job taking care of us. Great place to eat, homemade dishes and desserts! Highly recommend it. I will be back!”

“Wonderful food and service. We all had different dinners off the menu. The French onion soup was some of the best I had. We walked in and were met with smiles and seated fast with no reservations.”

“Pizza, hot subs, wines etc. All delicious!”

“My family enjoyed the food, a lot of different flavors, and their food is yummy, and pretty to look at. The staff are very efficient and attentive to their patrons. The atmosphere is very cosy. I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised of this hidden treasure.”

“I love Cava; I eat there at least once a week. Today, however, I found an inch-and-a-half-long piece of METAL in my salad from the Germantown MD location. 😫”

“Great Fish and Chips, Great Subs, Affordable prices, but most important Fresh Food. You can tell the Kitchen and Oils are clean by the presentation of the food. The fries and fish are bright gold exterior (sign of clean cooking oil) and the taste is pure. absolutely great food.”

“We ate at this location twice recently. And both times we had William as a waiter. He was amazing both times. So friendly so helpful really made the dining experience something to remember. Will be back many times and will request William as our waiter. He’s just a wonderful person and a very professional waiter. The manager who I wish I could remember his name was also very helpful. The state came out a little bit overdone, and he scooped it up and made it right. Great restaurant. Great staff..”

“Second time here and still amazing. I look forward to grabbing a meal here before my tattoo sessions. The food is Filling and flavorful. Then the staff are great and happy to help me make decisions. Perfect price for a hefty portion. And the Strawberry Drink is Delicious.”

“Reagan and James are absolutely the BEST! From opening night, when Reagan was our server, she made my family and me feel so welcome with her kindness and warmth. Her exceptional customer service is the reason I keep coming back. I recently had the pleasure of meeting James, and his customer service is just as outstanding. They both go above and beyond to create a wonderful experience. These two are truly amazing!”

“This is my 1st Valentine’s dinner date. We had a pawsome 🐾 time here. It’s the best dog-friendly restaurant in the DMV area. This place is so welcoming paw 🐾 fur babies like me, people are very friendly, the atmosphere and the vibes is so uplifting, food is delicious, and their signature coffee is the best!

“The best part of it was the bang bang shrimp. The rest of the food was OK. I have been there before, but I think they change the chef.”

“Great experience. The hostesses were friendly. Our server was exceptional, attentive to detail, and provided a healthy balance in seeing what we needed. The food was great and the dessert was delicious. The overall welcoming atmosphere.”

“the sushi is so delightful so many to choose from excellent service priced very moderately”

“Quick table and good food”

“Takeout has its limitations. Tonight we ordered burgers and a pizza. They forgot the pizza and by the time it arrived the burgers were stone cold and the fries a soggy pile of grease. I want to support DFH but if it happens again, I'll wait until indoor dining resumes.”

“The restaurant we had planned to go to was closed, and being Vegan, our options are usually very llimited. We had noticed the storefront for Thai Express, so we went there instead. Wow!

“Great seafood and great service provided by Josh Z!”

“oh my goodness. Everything, the freshest seafood I've seen in just about ever, delicious broths, huge portions, great presentation. My first hot pot experience and I will be back, a lot of times. Met the owner, and he was wonderful too. I highly suggest supporting this tasty, and fresh establishment”

“Great little spot, they are very passionate about their food and you can taste it. I truly enjoyed my chicken teriyaki bento box. The calamari was delicious and so was the ramen. I look forward to stopping back here again.”

“My wife and I are from southwest of China. I would say Chef Lee's Element makes the best and the most authentic southwest Chinese dishes in DC area. We've tried almost every dish and it never lets us down. For the service, I want to thank Micheal for his kind and wonderful service, he is always smiling and talkative and gives his nice recommendations of the dishes. We go there almost every week.”

“Great price great eats inside of 99 grocery store.”

“The jambalaya was super good, flavorful sauce and tender chunks of seafood. It wasn't spicy to me, but still enjoyable regardless. Our waiter was super friendly and accommodating despite how busy it was. I will definitely try to come back and get different items from the menu!”

“The noodle soup was so flavorful and was perfect! I had the signature dish Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup with thin noodles. The noodles are hand pulled and made fresh every day and you can tell by the excellent texture and flavor! My new favorite restaurant! Also we were honored by four songs excellently played on the baby grand piano. Thank you for a delightful dinner, perfect service, and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend Chopin Noodle House and look forward to trying more dishes on the menu. ❤”

“Masarap! The bistek is the bomb!”

“A solid choice for Thai food in the area. The interior is decorated in a traditional style that gives the place a nice, quiet feel. The drinks were enjoyable and the service was efficient. Overall, it was a positive experience and a good place for a casual sit-down meal.”

“Serene, magical forest and reliably yummy beers. What is not to like?”

“We get take out from Isaac's often and they never let us down. We usually get the wings and tenders plain with extra dipping sauces because everyone in the family likes something different. I haven't tried a bad one yet. The sides are great, especially the French fries. They have nailed the French fry game.”

“Black sesame cake is delicious 😋”

“Custom Cake Designs made my wedding cake dreams come true! The cake was everything I dreamed of, came on time, and the team was incredible to work with! They even created an espresso filling for us! Thank you for a delicious wonderful cake!”

“Everything they have to offer.”

“Got breakfast here. The lady behind the counter was so nice! My breakfast sandwich was just how I like it (they serve scrapple), and my daughter liked her french toast. The order came out fast. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!”

“The food and service was very good! Generous portion of food.”

“Best Ramen I’ve ever had, though sometimes the service was slow. Coming back again in a couple weeks, it tasted so good!”

“Good food, Good staff will go back again soon”

“Yay!! A bar that has a great Happy Hour with excellent prices and the best food!!! Non- threatening atmosphere for an old lady like me to come in and watch Notre Dame game by myself! Friendly, inexpensive, clean and yummy food!!”

“When the quality of food of some Pinoy restaurants have faltered or deteriorated through time after a big bang opening or having a change of hands from previous owners, Matthew's Grill has maintained a high quality of sumptuous entrées and desserts having reasonable prices and amiable service a throughout the years even pre covid. It is worth every trip from Virginia to Matthew's Grill. Carry on Raymond and crew!”

“Best Indian food I’ve had in the area. $15 and you can get a Chipotle style bowl with one scoop of everything. Such a good deal. I got the shrimp biriyani, masala dosa (it’s huge and stuffed with potatoes), and garlic naan. Everything came out hot and fresh. Bursting with flavor. Everyone was kind and explained the food too. Definitely coming back”

“We went on the morning of July 5th, so it was hopping busy, but we expected that and anticipated having to wait. For our party of 2, it was about 45 minutes, so we had some good appetites when we sat.

Our server was McKenna, and that girl was a rockstar! She was perfectly attentive and prompt despite having what seemed like half the tables in the restaurant and a couple of large parties to boot.

I'd never eaten at a First Watch before, and I'll DEFINITELY be back. The seasonal steak bowl I had was fantastic, and my husband, whose family has been First watch regulars for over a decade, ordered the house specialty bacon for the table. Add those two to the list of foods he's gotten me hooked on!

Tl;dr, go with an appetite, be prepared to wait a bit for a table or reserve one over the phone, and try the bacon.”

“This place is a real gem, tucked away in an industrial park. I've worked in the Airpark for 35 years and couldn't be happier about finding The Woodfield Diner. Our company goes together every Friday and everyone has been thrilled by the incredible selection and amazing quality. The flavors are spot on, incredibly fresh food that is also an excellent value given the large portions they serve. This place deserves all of the accolades they are receiving. I say this as I devour my skillet chicken with rice and vegetables. So incredibly good!”

“Best bakery ever!!! So fresh, best bread, super healthy, amazing bakery items like croissants, almond, apple pie stuff, so good my favorite bakery ever in my life”

“If you’re looking for an amazing pre- or post-workout treat — or just something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling guilty — this place is it. The service is always wonderful, and the Cowabunga Smoothie is one of my personal favorites. Everything they serve is made with natural, organic ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about a bunch of ultra-processed stuff going into your body. It’s refreshing to find a spot that focuses on quality while still making drinks that taste this good. It’s always a great choice when you need a quick energy boost to keep your day going. Highly recommended.”

“Perfect restaurant! The most delicious food, excellent and large portions, excellent atmosphere, excellent service Adrian.”

“We had a fantastic meal at Paisano’s Pizza in Gaithersburg. My daughter ordered the Italian cold cut, and I had the garlic spaghetti with grilled chicken. Both dishes were fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned.

The garlic spaghetti was perfectly seasoned, and the grilled chicken was tender and cooked just right.

The Italian cold cut was top quality and the toppings, on the absolute freshest bread, were just right.

Everything exceeded our expectations, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious Italian food, with top tier customer service.”

“Truly your neighborhood meet and eat place. Ted Danson and the whole Cheers gang would feel right at home here. And yes, everybody knows your name😇”

“The service is always the best, they repeat the ingredients of what comes with the food and asks if that’s fine or if you would want to exclude a ingredient and just overall really friendly, the atmosphere is great, it’s always clean”

“I love love loveeeeee this place! I recommend EVERY THING on the menu 🥰”

“Great food and service. We highly recommend for great Thai cuisine.”

“Great place to eat, I love the sushi options. They give a great portion of food for cheap, and it's never to busy. The ladies who work there are always nice, and they get the job done quick and easy. They take both cash and credit, allowing for an easy transaction. I would love to eat here and enjoy their options more”

“When I was a kid I hated their chicken..i don't think meat should be sweet...THESE GUYS ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR COME BACK..MANNNN CHICKEN SO GOOD MAKE U WAN SLAP UR GRANDMA.. I will be back!”

“Had yummylicious karahi real flavour of Pakistan’s Karahi � . Tasty ever.”

“Finally found a Mom and Pop shop close to home. We tried breakfast. The scrapple, egg, and cheese sandwich was amazing! simple and flavorful! The side of grits were on point!

Wonderful time had by all and will definitely plan other events at Madras Palace.”

“The food was delicious. We bought the catfish, potato salad, macranio cheese, and pound cake.”

One of the other employees accidentally messed up my order, but she quickly stepped in and corrected it without any hassle. She greeted me warmly when I came in, made me feel welcome, and even offered to help if I needed anything else. She turned what could have been a frustrating experience into a great one, thank you…😊”

“Celebrated my birthday at Empress Coffee & Cocktails with my girls, and it was everything! The food and drinks were incredible -- we tried so many dishes and loved every bite. The Persian pizza (a house favorite) was full of flavor, the soup and grilled cheese combo was pure comfort, and the turkey + havarti sandwich, bacon egg croissant, and margarita pizza were all delicious and perfectly done. The drinks? Just wow. The espresso martini is an absolute yes! We also loved the butterfly margarita, lava-shak martini, and Malibu sunset -- all beautifully crafted and fun to sip. Plus, they offer a nice selection of wines and juices to purchase. Shots were order as well. Had too much fun didn't take pictures of all the food and drinks. The space itself is perfect for a girls' day or night out -- stylish and cozy with beautiful lighting and thoughtful décor. We especially loved the artwork of the girl with the pearl earrings -- such a fun and elegant touch! We were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves, which made the whole evening feel extra special. Huge shoutout to Sam, the owner, who was such a warm and welcoming host. Highly recommend this gem for a celebration or a chill hangout. Can't wait to go back!”

“Absolutely love this Baskin-Robbins! The staff is always super friendly and patient while we pick out flavors. The store is clean, and the ice cream is always fresh and perfect. You can never go wrong. Highly recommend!”

“This place has a little of everything! In my opinion, it's a full service deli with plenty of food options, of high quality, and if you want dessert you can get that too. My wife and I went and we ordered the roast beef grilled cheese and the Viet Dog. Which....grilled cheese came with au jus and the Vietnam style hot dog was a great take on a Bahn Mi sandwich. My wife also got a scoop of ice cream and we left very happy. Great local place so go here to eat well and support a local business.”

“We had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentically prepared, with just the right balance of spices. Every dish we tried was delicious, and the portions were generous. The staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and perfect for a family meal. We'll definitely be coming back and would happily recommend this place to anyone looking for great Indian food.”

“Very yummy อร่อยมากๆค่ะ ปริมาณอาหารแต่ละจาน ชนาดกำลังดี สั่งได้หลายอย่างมาแชร์กันในโต๊ะเหมือนทานที่ไทย ค่ะ👍😎😋😘🥰”

“The food, drinks and staff were all great! Seriously 10/10!”

“Excelente y rica comida! Lindo lugar y acogedor. Presentación de los platos sencillamente maravilloso! Y la cordialidad y atención de Marco Campero extraordinaria! Recomendados 100%”

“I live for their pepperoni and burrata and hot honey pizza. Crust is the perfect thin, chewy, crunch even better folded! Salads and fresh lemonade w strawberries or blueberries really can’t be missed!!!”

“I eat 100’s of tacos per year. This place has the best tacos. I don’t know what they’re doing with the tortilla on the grill or whatever, but trust me.”

“The pupusas are addicting, very flavorful and always fresh. Well priced as well, so I can keep coming back without feeling guilty. Parking in front is tight, but there are a lot of spaces in the back. Love coming here to reward myself after dealing with the crowd at Costco across the street.”

“This is the Nori Japan that used to be in Lakeforest Mall.

I remember when I was a kid, we used to go to the mall and we would always get nori japan!

Got the chicken teriyaki with half noodles and half fried rice with extra chicken! It was so good! Just as I remembered it! Took me back to when I was a kid! Will be visiting whenever I'm back in town!”

“The food was absolutely delicious and honestly made me emotional in the best way. The jollof rice had that real smoky party rice taste, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The bitter leaf soup tasted just like my mom’s cooking back home, and it truly made me miss home so much.

The owner came out to chat with us and asked how we liked the food. I told her how much I miss home and how I never learned how to make bitter leaf soup, and she was kind enough to share cooking tips and recipes with me. Such a warm and genuine person.

The restaurant itself is beautiful, clean, and smelled amazing the moment we walked in. We had the jollof rice, bitter leaf soup, moi moi, and meat pie — everything was delicious. And the chin chin is an absolute must-try!

5/5. Easily the best authentic Nigerian food we’ve had since visiting Nigeria. I absolutely recommend this place.”

“I've always had good experiences at this location, which is why I'm still giving it 4 stars and will continue coming back.

That said, I had a concerning experience during my visit on June 29 at around 8:40 PM. I wasn't asked for my rewards phone number, which is normally fine because I can scan the barcode on my receipt later to receive my rewards points. However, when I received my receipt, there was no barcode to scan. In the past, whenever I haven't provided my phone number, a barcode has always been printed so I could claim my points afterward.

Based on that, I believe an employee may have entered a different rewards phone number instead of asking for mine. I can't say for certain that's what happened, but based on my previous experiences, it's the only explanation that makes sense to me. If that's what occurred, it's something management should investigate because customers shouldn't lose out on the rewards they've earned.

Other than this incident, I've always enjoyed coming here. The ice cream is great, the staff is usually friendly, and I hope this issue is addressed.”

“Our family's favorite. Proud Crave Card powerusers! They are always coming up with new and delish flavors of ices, pops, custard, drinks, and every kind of dessert you can imagine. Plus they offer coffee and breakfast! . The Fall Gelatis are our go-to desserts. I just wish they would post the flavors of the day online, but that would be hard because there are so many!”

“This place has the most authentic Shanghai food in DMV. Well if you argue it should be from your mom's kitchen then you win. I am just comparing this with Shanghai Taste and Bob66. (Shanghai lounge and Nanxiang has nothing to do with Shanghai food from my humble opinion.)
Back to the business. If you are fine with any dishes being sweet then I suggest give everything a try. Something you may find weird, but it is just how things are done in Shanghai. If you want something salty you can get Fuzhu 腐竹 or Moyu魔芋， both are nice cold dishes. But I still suggest Kaofu 烤麸, Lajiang 辣酱 and Ribs小排 even you don't have sweet teeth. Meatball 狮子头 are nice to try as well, and Shenjian生煎 is a must try - I served Shenjian to my parents who still live in Shanghai when they came and they gave a positive feedback.”
