“The service exceeds all expectations! We had a very large party of 16 who were so engaged in conversations that the servers had to ask many times who had what, and each time they did so with a wonderful, kind spirit! The food was fantastic even considering the small kitchen! Even the restroom was immaculate! It was almost a 2 hour trip for us to get there but we'll worth the trip! 5 we'll earned stars!“

“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND St. Veg because of the food, the ambiance and service!“

“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“

“The staff is very friendly great place to just have some family time and enjoy great food“

“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.“

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

“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“

“Overall Summary Review : 4.5 / 5

Great service, good music, fast food. Good food all around. Only dislike is the miso ramen. Didn't have as much new soul and deaf flavor that I was hoping for as I don't eat pork. And so I didn't end up eating the ramen and they were able to remove that from my check due to me not eating and liking it so that is why I rounded up to five out of five stars instead of having it 4. Worth trying has a large range of options.“

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

“There are no words to describe this place. You will never find better food for $12 in your life I promise you that. I was skeptical at first seeing as they are inside a gas station but hands down 10/10!“

“Awesome“

“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. 😫“

“Yummy food love this place“

“I have eaten here thrice before. with my colleagues. I ordered the basil fried rice with vegetable and chicken. It was bursting with fresh flavors and wonderfully intense spiciness. Everything is so clean, and the staff is friendly and efficient! We were the last ones to leave and never felt rushed or like we were being a nuisance to the staff. I had a third, wonderful experience and i highly recommend it!“

“I had a wonderful experience at Paris Baguette. The bakery was clean, welcoming, and filled with an amazing selection of pastries, cakes, breads, and coffee. Everything looked fresh, and the quality definitely matched the presentation. Paris Baguette is known for its handcrafted pastries, breads, cakes, and specialty drinks, and my visit lived up to that reputation.

The staff was friendly and patient while I decided what to order, and my food was delicious. The pastries were light, flavorful, and not overly sweet, and the coffee paired perfectly with them. The atmosphere was cozy and made it a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or enjoy a quiet treat.

I’ll definitely be back to try more items from their menu. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality baked goods and a pleasant café experience! 🍰☕🥐“

“This restaurant is amazing! From the food, atmosphere and service is perfect. The owner was working and was beyond kind and caring. I had never tried Indian food. So the owner walked me through what he would suggest and what it all came from. I ended up getting a dosa which was the best food I have ever had. When it came out the cook explained all of the masalas it came with.

I also asked for recommendations for desert and drink to bring home to my roommate. They suggested a chai, mango lasi, pineapple kessari and gulab jamun. Everything was to DIE for.

I felt so well taken care of. The owner is a wonderful person. I can not suggest this place enough!!! If you are looking for some of the best food from even better people, look no further. This will be the place for you!“

“The food is wonderful, the staff is warm and friendly and it’s priced very reasonably!“

“We have a big party in Choyhona on Saturday, March 9th. The tables were set beautifully, salads and kebabs were tasty (most recommend Kutabi with meat). Everything was served in time. Waiters were friendly and efficient. Highly recommend.“

“Everything so delicious here. Feel like I am in Thailand. อร่อยทุกอย่างเลยค่ะ เหมือนอยู่เมืองไทย ขอบคุณพี่ไก่ ที่พามาทานค่ะ ❤️“

“We’ve been going to Carmen since our kids were little. The ice and custard are delicious and the service is always amazing.“

“The food here was second to none! The chicken was cooked perfect, and the steak was falling apart off my fork. This is my new favorite place for lunch! The manager Zainab was so knowledgeable and made me feel welcomed. Their sauces are delicious! It was clean and I could not find one thing negative about this place. I will return! Thank you Zainab for the amazing experience and tolerating all my questions! I can be a handful.

Your New regular

“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“

“I recently visited Hornets Nest Grille and it quickly became one of my favorite local spots. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, casual, and genuinely welcoming — the kind of place where you can relax whether you’re meeting friends, bringing family, or just grabbing a great meal. The food was outstanding. Everything tasted fresh, well-prepared, and clearly made with care. Portions were generous without being overwhelming, and the menu offers a solid mix of comfort food classics and creative options. It’s the kind of place where you struggle to decide what to order because everything sounds good. Service was just as impressive. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home without being intrusive. Drinks came quickly, food arrived hot, and we never felt rushed — a perfect balance. What really sets Hornet’s Nest apart is that authentic “local gem” vibe. It doesn’t feel corporate or cookie-cutter; it feels like a true community restaurant where people know each other and take pride in what they do. If you’re in the Damascus area and looking for a dependable spot with great food, fair prices, and welcoming service, Hornet’s Nest Grille is absolutely worth a visit. I’ll definitely be coming back.

“Came here for a girls’ night out and had a wonderful time. Great service. For Tuesdays, bottles of wine are half-price. Yay! Plan on coming back soon!“

“Great service fresh ingredients and thanks for the free cookie made my morning and coffee better.“

“The best brunch! My omelet with salmon was immaculate with the presentation and the taste! Just a garnish of salmon to not make the taste too strong! The best humble people ! Not overcrowded! You can refill your coffee as many times as you want! Warm atmosphere! I will come back again! Actually this is my second visit since yesterday! Love this one in Rockville!“

“Gyro and shrimp souvlaki were really tasty, as was the rice pudding! Try it!! Everyone so friendly and helpful.“

“Excellent service and wonderful ambience ! The Reuben with their in-house made corned beef is on the short list of sandwiches I consider the Best! Bravo !!“

“Masarap! The bistek is the bomb!“

“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.“

“Delicious! Best ice cream ever! We get it every time my daughter Sarah goes to the orthodontist and it makes it extra special because she is named Sarah and it's called Sarah's handmade ice cream and she really likes the samples because that helps us choose what flavor to get and it's just amazing definitely recommend five out of five stars“

“One of the best Italian meals I have had outside of Italy! All dishes-appetizers, entrees and desserts were excellent. Will be back often!“

“For a recent birthday gift an order big enough to feed an army was Delivered to me. Biryani, Mushroom Curry, eggplant, Makhani and a case of the most delicious tiramisu cupcakes. Every bite of food was fresh, delicious, and perfectly spiced. One of the most thoughtful and delicious gifts I’ve ever received. Highly recommended. Kudos to the chef!!! Masterclass cooking!“

“I ordered the pork katsu curry and it was perfect. The katsu was crisped just right—golden and crunchy on the outside while still tender inside. The curry itself was thick and savory with a deep, comforting flavor, and it had plenty of pork pieces, which made it feel really filling. The rice balanced everything out perfectly and soaked up the sauce so well.

The place was pretty busy, but we got lucky and found a table. It’s clearly popular, and after eating here, it makes sense why. Despite the crowd, the staff was fast and efficient with getting food out, which I really appreciated.

Service stood out too—everyone was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. One small detail I liked was the waitress complimenting my rose pink debit card, which just added a nice personal touch to the experience.

Another bonus is the location—it’s right under a Japanese grocery store, which makes it super convenient if you want to grab anything before or after your meal.

Overall, it’s definitely worth the price. Great food, solid portions, and excellent service. I’d absolutely come back and would recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Japanese food.“

“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!“

“10/10. Food is very delicious and authentic. Place is always packed and hidden gem near the dry cleaner place.“

“Great food, service, and super easy to find! Just drive until the road ends, park your car, and look up at the restaurant on the second floor.“

“VERY nice neighborhood restaurant--with good food and friendly staff and customers. Everyone nearby should come by and check them out!“

“I went to Maki for the first time and it was an amazing experience. Although there might be a wait, it’s worth it.The waiters were very helpful and friendly. This place is Vegan friendly and offers full customization when making Ramen. I recommend getting Miso or spicy miso bases and if you want to spice up your ramen I recommend adding fire ball You’re not obligated to have meat in your bowl. If you’re vegan and like sushi, I recommend getting the Garden roll and also the Avocado and cucumber roll. Overall if you are vegan and like Asian cuisine this is the place for you!“

“This place may be small and not very fancy, but the food is absolutely on point. I’ve also used them for catering, and everyone loved it. My favorites are the khachapoori with egg, the beef kabobs, and the chicken shawarma. I truly love this authentic restaurant.“

“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.“

“Outdoor picnics delight As good as usual“

“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!“

“I went here to have dinner on May 19, 2026, but I left before I received my dessert. I just forgot. I already paid the bill. I went back on June 07, 2026 for another dinner. I told the waitress I did not get my dessert the last time. She trusted me and gave my dessert. This shows good character. Some restaurants would probably be very anal about it and ask for proof or something, but no questions asked, she just obliged. Thank you.“

“I really enjoy eating at Yu Noodle Cafe. They have the best noodle soup in Rockville. The soup is hot, tasty, and full of flavor, and the noodles are always fresh. The staff are very kind, generous, and friendly. They always make me feel welcome. The food is great, the service is great, and I will definitely come back again. Highly recommend!“
