“Me and my girlfriend come here almost every night for food or desserts. Everything is really good kind of like a hidden gem. Solomon is the reason why we keep coming back great customer service and great suggestions thank you very much, brother“

“Our second time here and I want to return and try more yummy food. So many original items on menu, it’s hard to choose. My sandwich was amazing. The fries are fresh and hot. I’m glad music wasn’t as loud as our previous visit in summer. I hear the pizza is delicious. It’s so great to have something close to us out here in the “country “. I like supporting local businesses“

“We know about this restaurant for many years but never went there because I usually don’t eat only vegetables, however seeing that the restaurant still operates after so many years I think it must be ok. We went on a Saturday evening for the first time and was surprised to see many people there, the service was quick and the food was very good. I recommend it.“

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

“I spend over $250 a month here. Most of the staff know me because I come in so often. The service is typically very good. Carlos, the manager is very friendly and always gives great service. Along with some of the older staff. But some of the younger staff need further training on proper customer service. Twice now, I’ve gone there, with the same individuals, and asked for a bag for my food. Instead of assisting me, they put the food on the counter and point me to the bags, saying, “they are over there!” I find that very distasteful and in poor taste for a frontline person serving the public. Part of the customer experience is assisting the customer. I worked retail for many years and always made sure my customers were satisfied. That kind of service is unacceptable!“

“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“

“Great atmoshere, high-end stylish dining room, comfortable seating. The salmon dish was delicious and a large portion. The spinach rice side dish was so delicious! The Ravini Politiko, coconut cake was the best I ever ate! The Thalissina, seafood pasta had plenty of seafood in it and delicious. Even the cappaccino was delicious, very smooth, no bitterness and taste great with dessert! The server, Baris, was attentive, friendly and did a great job taking care of us. Great place to eat, homemade dishes and desserts! Highly recommend it. I will be back!“

“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.“

“I went here today with my parents and older brother, the place is very clean and welcoming. We didn't have to wait at all to be seated since the place was empty. I ordered the pho with steak and brisket, along with the Booboo's milk tea. The pho didn't have an overwhelming taste, it's taste was very delicious and not that strong. For the milk tea, the tea wasn't that sweet nor that bitter, it was more in the middle. The tapioca pearls weren't that chewy or soft, it was okay at best. Overall, I definitely will be going here again. It's a hidden gem in the Gaithersburg area and definitely should have more people know about it!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Amazing experience, food was perfecto and nice experience. 100 % Recommended!“

“Great service with no waiting!“

“Love this place, the food is awesome“

“Ever since I moved to the area 2 years ago, I've eaten here at least once a week and I can easily say this is the best sushi restaurant I've ever been to. They treat the customers like family, they remember my wife and I when we come in and always have a welcoming smile on their faces. Prices are very reasonable. Quality is always high. Good selection of sushi, ramen, etc. I will continue to be a dedicated customer and recommend that everyone stop by!“

“Great Fish and Chips, Great Subs, Affordable prices, but most important Fresh Food. You can tell the Kitchen and Oils are clean by the presentation of the food. The fries and fish are bright gold exterior (sign of clean cooking oil) and the taste is pure. absolutely great food.“

“Very good coffee drinks! Nice atmosphere too.“

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

“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.“

“The food was amazing. The service was exceptional and the people were incredible. They wanted our dining experience to be enjoyable“

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

“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!“

“The cauliflower taco on the sprouted grain tortilla is a little messy but so worth it. Kale is much better than what normally comes on a taco, and the flavor doesn’t overwhelm as kale is known to do. From the sauces, there is a good heat which was a nice surprise the first time. My favorite item on the menu which also has other great items!“

“This place seriously has the most amazing, juicy sandwiches. I don’t know why other places don’t offer something like this! The staff are friendly, and the food is just perfect. I’m definitely going to visit again. If you’re looking for the best sandwich in town, you’ve got to visit this place! Highly recommended!“

“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 !!“

“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.

“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!“

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

“Great price great eats inside of 99 grocery store.“

“Rio Lakefront is a nice place to spend some time, with AMC, Dave & Buster’s, climbing, and a nice walking path by the lake. Yard House has decent food, though there’s still some room for improvement. The vibe is great, and the happy hour makes it worth stopping by.“

“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.“

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

“We've ordered takeout several times and loved it every time. Definitely our new favorite. Tacos and chimichanga are fantastic. great guac!“

“Ledo Pizza in Rockville has that rare, old‑school charm, the kind of place where the food shows up exactly the way you hope it will, and the people serving it seem genuinely happy you walked in. 🍕 The thin pizza here is a beautiful contradiction: crisp, crackling edges with just enough chew to keep you honest. It’s the sort of pie that doesn’t try to impress with theatrics, it’s clean, confident flavor.

🍗And the wings? They’re the sleeper hit. Golden, blistered, and then that drizzle of hot honey, sweet heat that sneaks up on you and makes you reach for another before you’ve even finished the first. It’s the kind of plate that tells you someone in the kitchen actually cares.

🪷The service seals the deal. Attentive without hovering, friendly without forcing it. Yoselin, in particular, is the kind of person every restaurant wishes they had, quick, warm, and always wearing the kind of smile that makes the whole place feel lighter.

If you’re anywhere near Rockville Pike on 355, bring your family, bring your appetite, and let Ledo Pizza remind you how good simple food can be when it’s done right.“

“I’ve been coming here for over a year now, and they never disappoint!! I’ve tried all the noodle options they have, and one thing I love most about this place is that I can choose the soup base and the type of noodles I want!!

I’ve also tried most of their rolls, and they’re all delicious!! One thing I especially love about this place is that they actually know how to prepare Ikura. It doesn’t smell fishy at all and tastes fantastic!

I will never betray this restaurant!!! ❤“

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

“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!“

“This was the best Greek food I’ve had in a long time! Visiting from out of town on a work trip and the food, the service and the atmosphere is top notch!“

“This is now my absolute favorite place to eat! The sandwiches are perfect — amazing balance of flavors and beautiful presentation. You can really tell that everything is made with care.

The owners are such kind and friendly people, which makes the whole experience even better. I always leave in a great mood. Highly recommend!“

“Outdoor picnics delight As good as usual“

“Delicious fresh food, beautiful presentation. Wonderful attentive staff, highly recommend. We will definitely return to enjoy an evening with music of Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Thank you very much.“

“ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!!! No I'm not employed here! I have to limit myself to once every other week. After being in the restaurant industry for 25 years I DEFINITELY respect this places consistency. Try it out.“
