“first time here, the staff was very welcoming. food was fresh and delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more items“

“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“

“The restaurant was impeccably clean, very cool decor. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and a good price for the portions. They were playing some early 2000s hits which really added to the atmosphere. Drinks were delicious and perfectly balanced. So many food and drink options. Food came out quickly and hot. Best crab rangoons i’ve ever tried!!! i prefer a tempura sushi and the shrimp tempura was perfect. Our serve was very on top of checking in and was prompt with bringing boxes, the bill etc. the bidder was also right on top of things, he’d cleared the table before we even finished signing the bill. Overall, a wonderful experience and i will definitely be back!“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Johana made our experience at First Watch exceptional. She was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind from the moment we sat down. She checked on us at just the right times, made great recommendations, and made sure everything came out perfectly. Even though the restaurant was busy, she stayed upbeat and made us feel like a priority. It’s rare to come across service that feels so genuine, and Johana absolutely delivered. If you’re dining here, I highly recommend asking for her. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you, Johana, for making our breakfast such a great experience!“

“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. 😫“

“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! 🍰☕🥐“

“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!“

“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“

“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 is delicious and reasonably priced. You get quite a variety in a platter--I love that it comes with salad and 2 different kinds of rice. The side of chickpeas is awesome. You really can't beat the flavor and price in this area. I have eaten inside and taken out--both great experiences.“

“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.

“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.“

“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.“

“Masarap! The bistek is the bomb!“

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

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

“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“

“All American Vegan exceeded expectations. Ordered a cake for next day for my partners birthday. Sonia even went out of her way to offer delivery to help accommodate me as I am only able to travel at certain times due to health.
Her communication was stellar, making sure that I was happy with the order and the payment process couldn't be more simple.
All vegan and all delicious. The cake was loved and positivity was spread. Thank you, Sonia 🫶🙌“

“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 sushi is so delightful so many to choose from excellent service priced very moderately“

“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!“

“5 stars for 5 reasons

1. Sushi and ramen were really good! The volcano roll is fresh, decorated, and flavorful! The sweet potatoes roll with cream cheese is phenomenal! The Karrage was super crispy and crunchy!

2. Price is very good for everything we got!

“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.“

“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!“

“Almost unreal. I went in to order dinner for takeout for my boys and The food was ready in 10 minutes. They even packed me complementary plates and cutlery since we wanted to do a picnic. The food was absolutely delicious. We will be back. Don’t miss this place.“
