35 Best American Restaurants near Germantown

“This is a great place inside the Amish market. The food was fantastic and the service polite and attentive. Super crowded when we were there and we waited a bit for our food, but it was worth it. Sandwiches were great and they had gluten-free options for my son.“

“First time visiting a LongHorn and the place is great. Lunch specials are really good, a delicious cheeseburger and fries for $10! The bartender, Jen, was friendly and attentive. Looking forward to coming back again and trying some steaks.“

“its a hole in the wall cafe within a business plex, but oh my goodness are they terrific! Food is a little on higher side price wise, but wow, the ingredients are so fresh! It really doesn't get any better for take out. And the service is very good as well! Will definitely be back!“

“I haven't had Applebee's in forever. I was so full when I left I had to go home and lay down. Still pretty good(but I think I remember in the 90s it may have been better?), waiter was good friendly and somewhat fast, and the 2 other chicks were cool. I forgot my phone and one of the chicks ran out and gave it to me while I was still in the lot before I had a chance to get into my car. (oops, thank you nice chick!).“

“We had an amazing time here! The food (we ordered buffalo chicken dip and BBQ wings) was delicious and the gameplay was really enjoyable. We played two rounds and despite the freezing weather, we were comfortable with the overhead heaters. I had a great time and would absolutely recommend for big groups!“

“Great food and service all the time.“

“I wanted to share my positive experience with the food and service during my recent visit. However, I was disappointed to learn that filling a growler with root beer was deemed "physically impossible". I hope this can be reconsidered in the future.“

“Food and service was fantastic, however the reason my family and I had to rate it so low is due to the seating and table. Absolutely no leg space!! We were so cramp and the table was very high so our feet couldn't even touch the ground. It made our experience horrible! Also the people at the desk had a bad attitude. We lost a gem from a ring and dropped our name and number in case they find it at our table. They gave us a very dirty look and scoffed.“

“This is my hometown watering hole! I live on Maui now but OTWC is always my first meal when I come home. Maryland Crab Soup and the Swing Wings is what I always get!“

“We are going to Ted’s Montana Grill (Gaithersburg, Maryland Location) with my soccer team members for dinner every Thursday for past 2 years. Great atmosphere, Fabulous menu & Fantastic service by Dan, (Thank you Dan). Highly Recommend 👌“

“Fantastic food and fellowship with some amazing scientists and staff from NIH/NCI this Holiday season. 🎄🍭😊“

“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.“

“Food and wine are never a fail. This is my spot.“

“Great food and drinks. Weekend live music!“

“I have been to Firebirds several times over the last few years and have always experienced great food, service and atmosphere each time.“

“I recently organized a baby shower for my daughter and opted for catering services from Crisp and Juicy's, Frederick location. The food was exceptional and efficiently packaged for pickup. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine. The customer service was outstanding, and Liz, the manager, demonstrated remarkable professionalism and assistance throughout the process. It was an absolute pleasure collaborating with her. I intend to utilize Crisp and Juicy's services for my future events.“

“Great food. Our party of 8 had to be split between 2 tables but the food more than made up for that. Old Bay wings were excellent. Each of the kids also found something on the menu they could enjoy, which is saying a lot. We were taken here by relatives we were visiting. We liked it so much we got the wings again when we unexpectedly found another location by pure chance later in the week in Fredericksburg, VA.“

“Ordered online and it was ready minutes before I walked inside. The front desk was courteous and signed “thank you” back which was a nice surprise. Will come back again.“

“I love this place. One of the few remaining spots in Moco for live music and local atmosphere.“

“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“

“Great breakfast location! I’m borderline addicted to their breakfast sandwiches! I get the bacon, egg, and cheese on white bread sandwich and it is super filling, always fresh/hot, and they don’t take long to make it! The service is fast and friendly. This is definitely a regular go to for breakfast!“

“I always order Chinese food from here! The service is super quick and the food is consistently delicious. It is a bit on the pricey side, but honestly, with today’s economy, that’s to be expected. Still worth it for the quality and speed!“

“The food sucks. But Lisa is the best bartender you could ever wish for.

I travel for a living and it's rare to have such amazing hospitality.

12/10 to Lisa.
1/100 to the food.
Drinks are exactly what you'd expect.

That woman needs a raise. A promotion. And a 2 week company paid vacation to some exotic island of her choice.“

“Yummy Food and Great Service!“

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

“We had a very enjoyable and nice dinner yesterday. I feel bad that the previous reviews are quite negative on this wonderful restaurant. We’ve been to Bench so many times and we were always very happy with the food and service . This is a hidden gem in Rio. While other restaurants are crowded and noisy, this one has a classy and quiet atmosphere. The food’s delicious and flavorful. We appreciate the chef and the hosts- they get busy with a small staff but they are still very hospitable and attentive. Our server last night was Alie and I’m sorry I didn’t get the other lady’s name . Keep up the excellent work . We will surely be back .“
