“I was blown away by the quality of Mackie's food. Not only was it incredibly flavorful, but it was also presented beautifully.

She was still in her gear and medals from the Competition and everyone was saying congratulations to her!

“Went to the olney location for the first time for my dad’s birthday yesterday. This place is awesome. The ribs are some of the best I’ve ever had. Ton of meat and it falls right off the bone. We had 3 racks between 4 adults and 3 kids and I’m eating leftovers tonight again. I give it a 5 out of 5 . Go here and eat!!!“

“Oh my sweet baby Moses if you've been missing out on this chicken and ribs you are gonna cry yourself to sleep the night after you come in and try it here!!Maybe it's the authentic Amish hats adding flavor, but probably a brine, because the fried chicken is on an entirely different level than anything corporate.And the rib meal comes with a mess of ribs and fantastic sides, everything below was about $20 - insane flavor and value.“

“I went there today for a nice lunch date and I requested to get all the food gluten free. They were very helpful and knowledgeable about what was gluten free on the menu and made sure to bring out the salads and explain which one was which. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend the pargiyot skewer but was not personally a fan of the lam kebab flavor. When the waiter came over and asked how everything was, I told him everything was great. He saw I had not eaten the lamb and asked me about it. Im not a complainer so I said it just wasn’t my taste. Well, when we brought us the check, he only charged us for the pargiyot and comped the lamb! I am blown away by my experience at Al Ha’esh. Excellent customer service and food! 👍“

“Our waitress was thee GREATEST !! I highly recommend asking for Regina as your waitress at kpot in Fargo ND. She’ll give you 110% great service ❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻“

“I have ate multiple times at this restaurant and the service and food was fantastic! The food was hot and seasoned to perfectio“

“It’s a way fancier version of Kpot but for the same price. Decorations were chic and modern. Meat and seafood are high quality. Lunch is an amazing deal given that it’s $28/person for AYCE bbq, hot pot, and buffet. Did I mention the buffet had crab legs and crawfish? It was a lot of variety for food. Service was exceptional. Shout out to Andy for being so attentive, great with our kids, and making sure we had a good experience.

P.S. Drinks are included so to reiterate again, great deal.

Parking: There’s limited parking in front, but a lot of parking in the back. There’s a garage that you can park in for free.

Kid-friendliness: Kids under four are free! Lots of kid friendly food options. The fries are bomb.“

“the hickory burger is absolutely outstanding!!thick and juicy always cooked to perfection and the fries are outstanding their fried pickles are good if you like spears I prefer fried pickles chips but when I had their fried pickle spears I was astonished seasoned well and very crispy“

“My girlfriend and I come to this longhorn all the time at least once or twice a month. We order the exact same meal every time. So that's how we could tell something was wrong with my gfs steak. The experience is usually great. We visited on 10/17/24 we both ordered ribeye 12oz med-well but my gfs steak looked and tasted way different than mine. Mine was cooked very well and hers had the well done look and was very rubbery. She sent it back to get it re cook and Sydney(I guess she was a manager or something) brought it back out and gave her a med done steak when we asked for med-well Sydney proceeded to say that's just how we do our med-well steaks hinting to us that's how they do all their med-well ribeye steaks even though that's not true since my steak came out perfectly. Her tone was unwelcoming and we did not appreciate that. She tried to make it seem like my gf didn't know what she was talking about. We both took a bit of offense to that because we are normal customers here and our waiter adrien could attest to that. Our waiter Adrien was very professional and did a great job with the experience.“

“4.3? No. This place should be at least 4.7+.
I initially planned to go to a ramen shop nearby, but the wait was too long, so I randomly tried this place without any expectations. And wow, it was amazing! I was confused the whole time I was eating. The pork belly is on par with some of the best spots in Korea, and the bossam just melts in your mouth.

I've lived in Virginia and tried most Korean BBQ spots here, but I want to give this place the top spot. We ordered galbitang, a portion of pork belly, bossam, and naengmyeon, and we were stuffed—yet the total was only $79! Is this real? It's so affordable and delicious; I can't believe such a place exists. It’s so underrated and unknown. Please promote this place more, owner! The vibe is also trendy and perfect for young people.“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere. However, its strange this place has many names, including this secret one thats not found anywhere that I can see on the signs! This place in chinese is 老地方, pronounced Lao Di Fang (translate in English to The Usual Hangout); it's also advertised as East Grill Karaoke and East Dumpling House. Whatever you call it, it's the perfect hangout spot after dark, with terrific food, atmosphere, and music. Get that sexy night club feeling on and come on down!

Pls use the private club rooms for karaoke and food enjoyment only.

Nom nom nom! ?

Kid-friendliness: They love kids!“

“Although my favorite is the Bowls; everything is fresh, healthy and delightful! The food is scrumptious and the restaurant is always, clean and the entire team is welcoming and professional. I frequent the Germantown location several times a week and am impressed everytime. The staff feel like family. The management at this store screams SUPERB Leadership!!!!!!!“

“So delicious my first time there“

“Went on a Saturday afternoon before dinner rush. The skewers were on point with good table set up, we ended up removing the basket grill and use the slots for skewers. The hot pot was ok. This is a great ayce skewer place with ipad ordering and they bring the food out pretty quick.“

“Good food, love the salad, and good service!“

“Finally we have a good Pakistani restaurant in Maryland, that we don’t have drive an hour to get to! I have nothing but rave reviews for Zaiqa BBQ. my family and friends love going there. the food is fresh and delicious. The establishment is new, service is friendly. bathrooms are clean (which is a rare find in desi restaurants sometimes). Some of our favorites are the Butt Karahi, Shinwari chicken karhai, beef Chapli kebabs, chicken Tikka and goat karahi. Last week I catered food from them for a party at my home. It was a hit! Their beef haleem is of professional level. People always find the time to write a review when they are unhappy. I spent the time today to write a positive review because I feel this restaurant deserves it! keep it up, and we will keep coming back!“
