“Anticipating a chewing out at home following the police breakup of a scrum he initiated to defend a smaller boy from being bullied by three older males, Dick Grayson prepped for one of Bruce Wayne's caustic lectures in the opening pages of Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo's Eisner Award-winning graphic novel, "Leaping into the Light." Dick soon discovers that it's Alfred and not Bruce asking him what happened. "There was a kid. They were hurting him. I'm sorry, Alfred." "You're," Alfred paused. "Master Bruce may feel you should only be a hero when wearing a costume. But I'm glad Dick Grayson steps up when someone is in need. It takes a different hero to help without a mask." But what if the setting were Greenbelt, Maryland rather than Gotham City, and neither the teenage Barbara Gordon (Commissioner Gordon's daughter) nor the teenage Dick Grayson was around to help? Perhaps the best way to prevent such bullying would be to choose a culinary locale whose appeal cuts across class, gender, and race...a location that often has infectious K-Pop music videos in the background, a place whose specialties include Korean wings, fried rice, and even hibachi. The Bb.q Chicken tucked in the same Greenway Shopping Center as Safeway and Starbucks is just such a place. Both times I have been sent to pick up lunch I have encountered groups of five or six teenagers, split almost evenly between girls and boys, enjoying each other's company and salivating for their turn to place their own orders for golden original Korean Fried Chicken, Honey Garlic Wings, or even Wings of Fire (which my wife attests taste great even if "fire" for her is always a misnomer).“
“EJ was incredibly nice and helpful, all the drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was fun and welcoming. Dan was exceptionally polite and crafted excellent drinks. Despite our large group, we were served in a timely manner and with great attention, had an amazing night!“
“Super kind and helpful staff and food is 10/10.Had brisket sandwich, tried the cheddar sausage, and had a banana cream pudding. I forgot to even try the bbq sauce cause the brisket doesn’t need it. Good Texas bbq. Can’t wait to try other meats.“
“Not too welcoming in 2024, I applied there when they first came to the neighborhood . lot of white people, then I figured out why they didn't hire me you but you never know the Pearl and the oyster. I hope they change their practices. Expeditor could manage your time a little better especially when you got gumbo and salad, and then the barbecue comes out cold. It lessens the experience of having to take it home and warm it up. But those biscuits stop me in my tracks.“
“Nya was superb server and thoughtful to the maximum! We were short on time but she expedited our order and kept us posted on status to our great delight!

She exhibited even more attention to our schedule by bringing check before we finished : that was on time!Mya exhibited a keen sense of dedication to customer satisfaction!Judo to chefs too; food was great!Marshall/MargieL“
“"My inaugural visit to Kpot BBQ in Laurel was delightful. The food was superb, especially their hot soups and seafood offerings. The unlimited chicken fry and French fries were a standout feature. The staff's friendliness and top-notch service added to the overall positive experience. I wholeheartedly recommend it!"“
“AC Catering/Ardmore Carry out is hitting all the marks. They showed up 20 minutes early, the food was hot, they gave instructions on what everything was and how it was set up and the food was amazing. We've used them a couple times and never had a complaint. Highly recommended!“
“Had a pretty big order. MISTY ASSISTED ME over the phone she was so kind! My order was ready when I picked it up and she helped me carry it to my car because I had my baby with me. Amazing customer service. Been coming here for years… haven’t been in about 2 years… just wanted to leave a review! She is such a wonder lady! Love this place always will be my go to location …. Other locations food don’t taste as good and don’t have as good customer service! Thanks!!“
“Omg I ordered Mother’s Day lunch for my mom and sisters and they said it was delicious they loved everything I was happy that I could’ve done something like this even though I’m in Trinidad thank you pammy will definitely be ordering again.. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“The following were super yummy: 1. Brisket 2. Rib tips 3. Smoked turkey 4. BBQ sauce I’m not used to sweet collard greens. They were not bad, just not used to them. I ate them all. May not order again, but doesn’t mean I would comeback not again… maybe to try the other sides. Pickles had a sweetness to them. Not bad, but don’t look to me given I’ve never been a fan of sweetish pickles regardless of where they come from. The brisket made me happy. I would love to try the Turkey in a sandwich. The ribs tips were perfection. I purposefully saved my extra sauce because it is that yummy.“
“I ordered Barbeque chicken. The customer service was awesome. The manager Christine went over and above to get the best platter for me and family. I have to say this was the best customer service I have had in a very long time. I know I keep raving about the customer service. The food was perfect too. It was delicious and hot.“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem in Beltsville. I have gone several times and I always leave satisfied. You can obviously tell that they put emphasis into the quality of their meats. The bulgogi in particular has such a rich taste to it. It is well seasoned and marinated. I can never have enough of it. I happened to go in last night when they had the debut for their pork belly sampler. To say it was amazing is an understatement! Being able to experience the same cut of meat in different marinades was definitely exciting. I'm a big foodie, Gah Ram has won a special place in my foodie heart.“
“I had the great pleasure of accidentally stopping at this little hole in the wall in a strip mall. To my amazement I met this incrediable, personable, friendly and skilled man. He was raised on a farm in the midwest and relocated. He is a skilled farmer and it reflects in his pizza, I'm sure his other food too. I have to say it was an experience I will never forget. In this busy, hustle, hustle of today's lifestyle he was as warm and friendly as family, someone I've known my whole life. The pizza at 1st glance didn't look like much but boy, when you take that FIRST BITE, PURE HEAVEN. I must admit in 67 yrs, it is the best I've ever had. I once thought Rays Pizza in NYC was the best, sorry Rays this country man not Italian makes THE BEST PIZZA EVER!!! THANK YOU FOR FRIENDLY AND WARM MOMENTS WE SHARED WITH EACH OTHER. PERFECT STRANGERS TO BE LONG TIME FRIENDS. I PROMISED ON MY RETURN TRIP TO FLORIDA that I would not go thru Maryland without stopping at the PIZZA OVEN. to once again enjoy some down home great conversation, friendship, and great food. This time I'm taking a bunch back to Florida with me . CAN'T wait for others to try it. Thank you for a wonderful experience on a very brisk night. Everyone should stop in, try a slice or a meal and have a festive jolly time. I will NEVER FORGET THE OWNER, HIS WELL RUN ESTABLISHMENT AND THE GOOD TIMES WE SHARED. 5 STARS FROM ME, YOU CAN'T GET ANY BETTER. GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL, PRECIOUS FAMILY AND FARM IN PROSPERITY. I SEE THE IMAGE IN HIM THAT GOD ASKS OF US.“
“Fantastic dining experience! The freshness and quality of the meat were outstanding, definitely not your average cheap cuts. The flavor was superb, enhanced by their unique sauces and seasonings. The pineapple steak is my favorite. The attention to detail was evident as they even took Polaroid photos for us to cherish the moment. Can’t believe they have a full bar here! Because most of Korea BBQ place only have half bar. Definitely a good place to hangout with friends or family.“
“Good portion sizes and prepared fresh at your table. Music videos were cool and gave insight into the music culture in Korea. The bench seats are HARD! And the automatic tip added to my bill as usual sets me off. Limited dessert menu. I will go back to try the galbi next.“
“This place is DC's best kept secret for ribs, to such an extent that it's my standard for quality ribs. No one in the DMV can compete with them. Their ribs are cooked to perfection and their rub is second to none. Make sure to bring cash. Please also try the pulled pork sandwich; best in town!“
“Only open a few days out of the week first time here and tried the pork chop patter, and shredded pork sandwich with 2 sides a piece potato salad,coleslaw, coller greens, and the hamburger Beans everything was delicious.Parking: It's a in area where there is parking next to building“
“My family and I had such a wonderful time . I’ve been here so many times with my kids and always feel right at home . Thank you to the chefs in the back who make the wings so tasty and flavorful and that out law ribeye that is always cooked to perfection . My husband ordered ribs and the meat fell right off the bone . It came out perfect even with the heavy flow of how busy it was last Friday . My waiter Snupey was so funny he had my kids and I laughing the entire night . He was quick with everything and made our night special . My husband also told me to mention that the bartender did an excellent job with making drinks . 5 stars all around and a bigger applause goes to the managers . You guys are doing a fantastic job of working smoothly with the amount of parties I’ve seen come in . Oc job guys thank you again I will be recommending you guys to anyone who asks“
“4.5 stars!Everything is wonderful about this spot. Just found the ribs a little tough and the menu to be a little too small. This is bbq food with a Mexican twist, the steak is cooked perfectly and I definitely recommend getting it. Price is super fair and portion sizes are generous.“
“I love Just Jerk. I've been going there for years! The food is good and they stay busy. My favorite is the curry chicken and the jerk chicken sandwiches. My husband loves the stew chicken. Call ahead if you can. I definitely recommend this business.“
“Food was amazing and staff was super patient with me picking out what to order. Grabbed a big sampler platter and it was more than enough for two people for an incredible price. Food was fast, hot, and the best BBQ I've had in a one hour + radius.Little rough walking across the highway from the hotel to grab it, but super worth it.“
“Awesome service and tender brisket. We were greeted by a cheerful server who helped us put tables together, got us high chairs and set up the kids with coloring pages. I liked all the sauce options available for us to try. Our fries were fresh and delicious. We really enjoyed our experience.“
