The strawberry lemonade it bomb ! The staff is friendly and professional. I hate the ppl hounding for money outside everytime I go but overall pretty good place.“

“I was in the neighborhood and was looking for a sandwich. Oh man, I found this gem. I walked i. And was greeted by a person. No kiosks, no tv menus, no ads and fake smiles. No 5 bread choices, no arugula no aiolis. Just a sandwich for under $10 and drinks 2 or under. These are the places we need to support.“

“Jersey Mike's Subs on Silver Hill road, Suitland Maryland what's the best experience ever! This location thank you so much for your excellent customer service! My sub was the roast beef/provolone with lettuce , tomatoes, onions, mayonnaise, Jersey Mike's famous signature oil and on the cheese sub bread. My sub was picture perfect just like the Jersey Mike's Sub commercials and it was the best roast beef sub I've ever had in my life! I will give Jersey Mike's Sub this location more than five stars, the highest amount of stars 🤩 this is the location that I will continue to go to! I tell everyone to go to this location you will enjoy looking at your food and eating your food! Simply the Best! Thank You Always 🥰“

“Hidden little gem. Great service very friendly staff. Great food, fresh and was delicious. Reasonable $.“

“Cute spot, good oatmilk cappacino, and fast food made on order. They have a lot of bread options and turkey bacon or sausage as we as the regular ones. Limited seating in winter but enough and looks like a fun patio for warmer weather. It's in a a neighborhood and good for people watching and just being a part of daily routine of DC.“

“Probably the best sloppy joe I’ve ever had. I rarely leave reviews, but this place deserves it, 100%. The guys who make the magic happen inside of this establishment are always happy, and welcoming, leaving you with a memorable TASTY experience. Also, the hot dogs are out of this world. Will keep coming back as long as they’re open ❤️“

“A hidden gem! This is the way to focus on just one thing and do it well... focaccia sandwiches. The 13 choices are a tasty expression of classic sandwiches. I sampled the Tartufo. The arugula and the black truffle honey really accent the prosciutto and stracciatella. The focaccia was very light, slightly toasted with a marvelous crunch. My wife's Cubano was an Italian take on thus classic sandwich. Though the focaccia was equally delightful, this was a little mundane but still enjoyable.
This cute shop has limited seating at a counter and a few tables for 2 people. 4 or more in a group would be better served with takeout orders. This would be a great option for a picnic or lunch in the park.
I think we thoroughly recommend this and will come again.“

“I like the service and food value of Subway. It is really nutritious delicious and healthy food. Thank you Subway.“

“I’d like to share my appreciation for the excellent service provided by Muhammad and Waway and also the very polite and nice one aynalem. They were anll incredibly professional, patient, and attentive throughout the entire interaction. They made sure all my concerns were addressed clearly and went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied. Their positive attitude and willingness to help truly made a difference. Thank you all for such outstanding customer service!“

“When I walk into a sandwich shop, I’m not looking for poetry. I’m looking for a system that works.

At Jersey Mike’s in Calverton, Maryland, what you see is a business that understands the fundamentals: speed, consistency, and respect for the customer. The place is clean, the line moves with purpose, and the staff behind the counter know exactly what they’re doing. That’s not an accident — that’s discipline.

The sandwich line operates like a well-oiled machine. Bread sliced, meat layered, cheese placed with precision. Then comes what they call “Mike’s Way” — onions, lettuce, tomatoes, vinegar, oil, and spices applied with the confidence of a process refined through repetition. It’s assembly, yes — but it’s craftsmanship within a system. I’ve always believed that excellence is built from repeatable habits, and you can see that philosophy in action here.

Now let’s talk about the product. The sub itself is hearty and honest. The bread has structure — important in a sandwich business — and the ingredients taste fresh and well-kept. Nothing fancy, nothing pretentious. Just a solid American sandwich made quickly and correctly.

What impresses me most is the clarity of the model. Customers know what they’re getting. Employees know how to deliver it. That’s how you build trust, and trust is the backbone of any successful food operation.

If I were evaluating this place as a businessman, I’d say they’ve done something right: they’ve taken a simple idea — a submarine sandwich — and built a reliable process around it.

And in the restaurant business, reliability is everything.

You can build an empire on that.“

“Love the food and the service was kind and very friendly I'll be back real soon“

“The seasonal coffees are the best :)“

“Excellent, efficient and clean establishment. Food was ready when I walked in to pick it up at 10-15 min after I placed the order. The Tejas BBQ brisket taste was fantastic. The SriPraPhai drunken noodles with tofu was so-so. Its taste profile was more like Pad Thai than drunken noodles I have had from prior restaurants, so would not get this again. The taste wasn't bad, but not what I expected. Overall, I would still return and try this food concept chain again (similar to a food court in a mall with many restaurant options but with a small pick up window and assembly room in the back).“

“Good afternoon my husband was just in there and one of the employees have her child there. The little girl is running around the store. Coughing on everyone. The line is backed up. This is unacceptable. People are walking out because the little girl is running all around the store and she's coughing all over the place. Y'all losing money“

“This family-owned market in DC is a real hidden gem! The coffee is always fresh and flavorful, and the sandwiches are out of this world. Their Italian sub is a must-try—loaded with quality ingredients and packed with flavor. Friendly vibes, quick service, and everything feels made with care. Perfect spot for a coffee break or a hearty lunch, I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“So I haven't been to a subway in years and today I decided to go to this one with my hubby. As someone who had to change to being a plant based eater for my health, I didn't know I could still eat here. We had an amazing veggie patty on whole wheat, veggie footlong. It was amazing. I feel like I've been missing out all this time. Additionally the women working this afternoon around 3pm are phenomenal workers and the place was spotless. If they havent been given a raise or promotion yet, you need to give them both one. These ladies are easily the most competent fast food workers that I've ever seen. Show them your appreciation because any restaurant would be lucky to have them. They are respectful and kind and so efficient. Next time we go to subway out here, I hope to have the same ladies here. 10/10.“

“Ordered Taylor Gourmet on Uber Eats. It came up as a black owned business near me so of course I wanted to check it out to support. And the food was great! I ordered the California Avenue sandwich. I should have gotten a regular size but I got a large and it is just that. A Large 😂 I also tried the cracked spuds and they were ok. Would def eat here again ! Thanks for the freshness“

“Got here at 8am and there wasn't even a line. Quick turnover on orders and kind professional staff.

Breakfast sandwich was filling---They don't skimp on their portions.

Get a Korean iced coffee, you won't regret it.“

“We had breakfast there: omelette and croissants w/freshly brewed coffee! The place was very clean and the personnel was very friendly and patient. I would go back!“

“I’ve lived in this area for about 8 years and just discovered this restaurant recently and I’m so happy I did. They food is extremely delicious and probably one of my favorite places to eat. They chicken tenders is real chicken not the fake meat crap you find at most places and the price is decent. Great sandwiches, breakfast and more! You have to try this looked pass gem!“

“hands down nice subs my second best deli sub shop #1 is subbs by Carl's both are nice and black own“

“Ordered a footlong roast beef sandwich. Relaxed atmosphere and pretty clean. The workers were definitely generous with the amount of roast beef and cheese that they put on the sandwich. Nice amount of toppings, too, and very fresh. Overall, it was a great experience, and the food, drinks, and chips were delicious. The price justifies the large serving of food you get. Hopefully, neighboring local businesses in the area will follow in the footsteps of this Subway and put their customers first before profits. Will definitely keep coming back.“

“As soon as I walked in, I noticed a clean restaurant. A friendly staff member who greeted me. As soon as I walked into the door. I am so happy that this is the only Subway nearby where I live, which is 13 minutes away. That is open before nine A.M.. I am happily surprised that they open at seven. The lady who helped me was very Nice, and did an excellent job. I had to order lunch for my kids. I am very Please. I will be coming back.“

“Best steak and cheese ever. All ways polite and never a big wait.“

“I worked in this area of K St. for about 4 months and AHRA Cafe was my GOTO!! They have a great variety of food, kind staff and a relaxing atmosphere for Business. Clean relaxing and quiet place to get some work done out of your office. Get the steak and cheese you won’t regret!“

“My experience with Alexander Dou has been enlightening. His strategies focus on careful analysis rather than rushing into trades. I appreciate the support and guidance he's provided, if you're interested in learning more, consider contacting him on Telegrm at Alexanderdou.“

“I stopped by Pret A Manger in downtown D.C. for a quick breakfast, and it was exactly what I needed — fast, clean, and consistently good. The atmosphere is bright and casual, perfect for grabbing a bite before work or while exploring the city. The staff were efficient and polite, keeping the line moving even during the morning rush.

I tried a croissant and a cappuccino, both fresh and served at the right temperature. The selection of sandwiches, pastries, and juices looked appealing and well-presented. It’s a reliable spot for fresh food, good coffee, and a comfortable break in the middle of D.C.“

“Excellent experience at Subway in New Carrollton! The restaurant was very clean, the ingredients looked fresh, and the sandwiches were made exactly the way I wanted. The staff were friendly, patient, and provided fast service even during a busy time. I also appreciated the welcoming atmosphere and how organized everything was. It’s definitely a great spot to grab a quick, fresh, and satisfying meal. I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“Devon & Blakely: The Dynamic Duo of Lunch

In Latin America you have Wisin and Yandel. In Vegas, Siegfried and Roy. In Gotham City, Batman and Robin. In Washington, we have Devon and Blakely.

Their soups are great. Their sandwiches are great. Their salads are something else entirely — vast, leafy monuments to abundance. Each bowl feels like it should come with a carbon offset for the sheer scale of greens involved.

Behind the glass station stands the salad maestro, a tong-wielding virtuoso who rhythmically chops, tosses, and compresses vegetables into submission. The result is a tin tub filled to the brim, a perfectly diced ecosystem of roughage that will take the average mortal 45 minutes to chew through.

It’s excessive. It’s ridiculous. It’s delicious. Devon and Blakely aren’t just making lunch — they’re performing it.“

“Hot and fresh subs. Hook and Ladder, New York Steamer Meatball, Italian, Spicy Cajun Chicken, Club on Sub, Firehouse Hero“

“I visit this subway often for a late lunch and am served by Rahindra on a regular basis. He is always friendly and engaging, very respectful and makes sure my sandwich comes out exactly the way I want it. I have other nearby subways within walking distance, but the friendliness and consistently good experience is why I choose this location.“

“Great organic food, reasonably priced and delicious 😋“

“I only purchased a soda but the gentleman working was nice enough to let me use the restroom. The store was very clean ,he was very polite and the bathroom smelled decent. When I get a craving for subway this is the place I'm coming to. Its comforting knowing a place keeps things clean..helps food digest better.“

“I recently visited this spot and had an absolutely wonderful experience from the moment I walked through the doors. If you're looking for fantastic Asian cuisine, this place definitely needs to be on your radar.

​First off, the service is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The staff made us feel right at home immediately, and one of my favorite highlights was the complimentary hot tea they provided right as we sat down. It’s such a comforting, traditional touch that really sets a relaxing tone for a great meal.

​As for the menu, the food was simply great. Everything we ordered came out piping hot, beautifully plated, and packed with incredible flavor. You can tell they really care about the quality of their ingredients and the authenticity of their dishes. The meal completely exceeded my expectations.
​One quick heads-up for anyone planning to visit specifically for the market: the attached grocery portion of the business is currently shut down. It didn't negatively impact our dining experience at all, but it’s definitely good to know if you were planning to pick up some ingredients after your meal.

​Overall, between the top-notch food, the stellar and attentive service, and the cozy atmosphere, it was a fantastic visit. I will absolutely be coming back again soon to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend!“

“Great sandwiches! Today I enjoyed the grilled chicken burrito. It was outstanding! Nice and fresh! The beef and chicken cheesesteaks are also delicious!“

“I just got two sandwiches yesterday, and I never had an issue with quality and service. Sometimes, I like to order online also in advance so I can use the coupons. I think in the middle of the day is the best time to go cause I always see at least 3 people behind the counter in my opinion“

“Great sandwich at Charlie's. don't compare to Philly and you'll be satisfied. The staff wanted to work there and do a good job and they did. The first hot bite hit the spot but as it cools the seasonings are kind of strong. However, I liked the food and it's a great addition to Union Station.“

“My girlfriend surprised me with a cheesesteak on Valentine's Day! I'm from Uptown, Philly. It was perfect and I will definitely be back when I visit again! I've been all over the world and everyone claims to have an authentic cheesesteak. I'm disappointed every time except this time. This jawn is the real deal 💯“

“Food is delicious especially the crab egg rolls. Fish & Seafood is fresh. Prices are good. Staff is friendly. Music is on point.“

“I had the Italian sandwich with all the works, and it was well worth it. The gentleman with locs was incredibly understanding and helpful, and the woman who was managing both the register and cooking was fantastic as well. She may have a quiet voice, but she definitely means business! I never got their names but both of them were very nice!
The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent service. I'll definitely be adding this spot to my list of essentials whenever I'm in the area for conferences. Highly recommended!“

“Amazing establishment, incredibly outstanding staff, the place is clean, food comes
Out quick, you couldn’t pick a better place to eat at the Wharf. GRAZIE GRAZIE WILL MOST DEFF SEE ME AGAIN. 💯 best pizza I’ve ever hard. 😍“
