American Restaurants near Hillcrest Heights

“food was delicious and definitely worth the drive from Baltimore. We will be back!“

“The environment is great, the menu is very diverse, and seemingly commonplace dishes manage to be innovative in flavor“

“This place was highly recommended by several people in the area, including the concierge at our hotel. The place was very busy and the service was a bit off. They brought me the wrong entree but corrected it. The food was excellent and worth the wait, but the service could be improved on. Like I said, it was highly recommended so I’m hoping it was just an off night.“

“Fun night for two out of towners! Food was amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly, even though we’re two or three times their ages and not cool at all! ;)“

“A thoughtful shared plates experience. We followed the wise recommendations of our server and were rewarded. Nice spot. Excellent yet not pretentious.“

“Just an all-around wonderful experience, I was able to pull right up sit down with my lovely puppy outside and enjoy one of the best brunches I’ve had in the long time“

“The Mule, Avocado Toast, and Scallops were very good. The prime rib was mediocre as was the mashed potatoes and squash. The service is top notch.“

“This food was delicious! The owner & chef, Keem is amazing and personable. I would visit this restaurant again 10x!“

“The food was great! The chicken wings & the Cuban sandwich were generous in portion size for the price ! The Mezze was good but small portioned for $17. The manager of the day made our experience very good and he was very kind to us . We had a big family & he checked in on us even more than the server herself! We appreciated it so much h because the waitress wasn’t super friendly. That is totally okay , but I always appreciate people that try to make the day happier. So thank you manager !!!! It is nice to be treated like humans !“

“Had a great experience. I would definitely come back next time we are in DC.“

“Great establishment for brunch with excellent service and food!

The staff members at this restaurant were very professional and helpful. The level of service offered was noteworthy, from the manager to the server to the staff from the kitchen that delivered our food. A big thank you to the entire team for delivering a seamless and consistent great experience.

The food was delicious. The eggs benedict were made perfectly and the taste was on point. The smash burger was a solid burger cooked and seasoned to perfection. The only critique I have is that the fries that accompanied the burger could’ve been served better — I found that the temperature of the fries were a little on the colder end and not as crispy as I was expecting. The seasoning was good, however!

The best part of the meal was the dessert — the tiramisu and the key lime pie. Both were delicious and definitely worth the order.

Overall a great experience both in terms of service and food. Would highly recommend this place if you’re looking for somewhere to visit in the area! Hoping to return for dinner some time soon!“

“Great food and excellent service. John was fantastic. 100% recommend“

“Excellent experience, excellent food, and excellent service! Thanks Lenny!“

“Ty was the server who heightened our eating experience increments about the very good food. Her descriptions of items completely changed the dinner choices the three of us had after looking at the menu. Ty highlighted new items on the menu with nuance and apt descriptions. Ty answered all of our questions, paced the meal wonderfully, and ensured that our birthday celebration of a loved one was memorial. The food - a nice range of choices for cold and warm appetizers and mains and prepared with excellence.“

“Incredible experience. Will be returning.“

“We had the most amazing evening, celebrating our wedding anniversary. From the moment we arrived, John met us with a smile and promptly sat us. I forgot my reading glasses and he graciously let me borrow his (thank you again!). The food and service were spectacular. Everything from the rosemary infused bread, down to the dessert and port. We both had the filet and it was done to perfection. Our waiter was attentive and kind, making our evening even better! The atmosphere was warm, welcoming and full of so many stories, as evident on the walls with the decades of pictures and memories. Our favorite part of the evening was speaking with John, who felt like we've known him for years. Our only regret is that we haven't been there sooner. We can't wait to return soon! Thank you all for the exceptional evening and making our wedding anniversary one we will never forget. -Shannon and Spencer Phifer“

“I have chicken wings ring ring Chris Rock they would really really good I had a good time there“

“I enjoyed my experience. Being able to watch them cooked the food and then bring it to us and describe what each dish was, was excellent. I also enjoyed the attention of the staff the ambience. The wagyu egg rolls were so good. They melted in my mom. The right texture and crisp were excellent. I also enjoyed the salmon on a bed of crab rice. It was excellent. What more could I say, except I will be back. Great night to end a 25 year anniversary. Thanks“

“Love this place! Dinner is always 10/10 but service, we had Alena or elena and she was just the sweetest young lady and she knows was shes doing, and she was honest too with her recommendations! We always have a tuna and oysters! Then steak this time we shared the cowboy ribeye and added scallops which by the way is not on the menu but elena said they could do it and it was delicious!! 5 star service“

“Carlos was our waiter. He was exceptional. Food and drinks exceptional. Hope to come and dine again in the future. It's a 5“

“Good food, highly recommend the National Premium beer (dashingly crisp and dry). Service was fantastic. Feel slightly betrayed by the small portion size since the croquettes were $14. Overall, solid establishment that kept service great even late into the night (reservation was at 9pm).“

“I’m on a restricted diet and traveling for work. When I asked if they could make grilled chicken, asparagus and rice, they were happy to assist. The rice was not on the menu and the chef made a special order for me. Extremely friendly staff and so accommodating. I am extremely appreciative!“

“The food, the service (especially), the atmosphere, the important mission--I recommend them all. I dined solo at the Ballston location last night and hope to return on future trips.“

“Had my first brunch at Sequoia and it was just as nice as a summer day! The venue alone already counts a lot, the food was great! We had a swirl margarita which was really good, and we ordered two dishes to share and the sizes were pretty good for two people. Their guaca with chips is also really tasty! Plus you get the beautiful view from the Potomac. It was perfect!“

“Loved our visit and such a dining experience! You have to try it!! Cheers y’all“

The Tom Tarts, mimosas, chicken biscuits, every single thing we had AND the customer service— top tier! All of it! We will absolutely be back and look forward to placing our order with you for our bridal shower! Thank you for the awesome experience!“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service“

“Nice atmosphere . Troy was a great host/server.“

“Restaurant was clean! Service was amazing! Queen our server was amazing! Good portions for majority of the foods. However, for the scallop dish was small and the scallops were over cooked and bland. Everyone else enjoyed their food! The drinks were amazing, the pizza appetizer bread was amazing! We were celebrating a few of
our bdays and the restaurant so generously gave us a complementary s’mores pie! Yumm! The apple pie was awesome too, so good! Loved the buttery flavor! Loved the photo opp in the basement but the bathrooms are very inconvenient to be located down there. They do have a single unisex stall upstairs but it’s not always available. I would for sure eat here again! I would just try something different.“

“The most delicious salmon salad!!!“

“Reliable! Always delicious!“

“My wife and I recently had an amazing experience at Jônt. The whole thing, from the counter seating and loud music, to the phenomenal staff I 10/10 recommend. The food was unique and so fun to try. Every bite may not be a hit for everyone, but like i said it’s fun to try.“

“Our server Devin was AMAZING AND TRULY A GEM! Stuart the manager was also AMAZING AND SO INVITING. I watched everyone around me and every employee including managers were helping each other. I’ve been around the world and ate at a lot of Hard Rocks while in the Navy from Bahrain, to Singapore to Hawaii, Foxwoods Connecticut,Las Vegas, and even more and this was an AMAZING EXPERINCE! This is one of the BEST Hard Rock Cafes if not the best!“

“Unforgettable Dining Experience at Bresca: A Culinary Journey of East Meets Words can't fully express how much I enjoyed dining at Bresca. From the moment you walk in, you're enveloped in a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels both like a cozy neighborhood bistro and a place of refined elegance. The decor, with its green moss walls and charming goldfish decorations, is fun, creative, bright, and relaxing. The service was exceptional. Our sommelier was knowledgeable and helpful, recommending a Reserva Rioja that paired perfectly with our dry-aged duck and wagyu beef. Our server, Matt, provided impeccable service. Despite our group of eight, all plates were cleared at once, and all dishes were served simultaneously. When one guest went to the bathroom, Matt held the plates to keep them warm and served them upon their return. What I loved most was Chef Ryan Ratino’s creativity in transforming humble dishes by combining the best of Eastern and Western culinary traditions to elevate classic French cuisine. My favorite dish of the night was the Potato Pierogi. The snap pea and ricotta filling was velvety, with the snap pea perfectly reflecting Chef Ryan’s passion for seasonal ingredients. The whole plate sang of summer. The Diver Scallop dish was another standout, with the crunch of hazelnuts and the umami brought out by Japanese ingredients such as kombu and shiso. If no one had been watching, I could have picked up the plate and licked every drop of the sauce—it was that good! At the end of the day, food brings people together. I dined here with a group of businessmen from Taiwan for the Select USA summit, and we were all thrilled with our choice. Everyone agreed it was one of the best meals they had ever had in the USA. Thank you, Chef Ryan, Manager Tobias Froehlich, and Matt, for making this an unforgettable experience. Bresca is truly a place where memories are made.“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

“We had 3 different lunch mains (shrimp, salmon, chicken) and all were excellent. The service was adequate, but not as good as expected at this price point. Overall we had a nice meal, but if value were an option, it would be 3 or 4 stars for that component.“

“great food and great service! our waitress Lydia was amazing! we had pizza and wings! fabulous!“

“This is where it’s at pregame DC defenders“
