“Highly recommend. We had an excellent experience at Terre Gaucha. As party of 12 can sometimes be challenging, but the staff handled everything with ease, professionalism, and attentiveness. They were knowledgeable and quick to answer any questions, ensuring a seamless dining experience for our group. The hot and cold bar offered a wide variety of options, though the highlight of our visit was the churrasco service. The selection of meats was outstanding—beef was especially tender and flavorful, while the pork, shrimp, chicken, and salmon were equally impressive. We look forward to returning and would strongly recommend this restaurant to anyone considering a Brazilian churrasco dining experience.”

“The food tastes good, but sometimes it's too salty, like yesterday the ceviche had so much salt you could see it at the bottom of the plate. The service surprises me more and more each time. A couple of weeks ago we went to eat, they seated us and took our order, and a few moments later a group of about 8 people arrived. The waitress told us she was going to move us to another table, she took our silverware and the complimentary corn nuts to the other table and seated the group at the table where we were sitting. I didn't think that was right. If they arrived after us, they should have waited for a table to become available, like in other restaurants. Yesterday, 12/19/25, we ordered 3 meals at 12 PM by phone. The waitress told me 25 minutes. I arrived 45 minutes later, giving them plenty of time, and even then the order wasn't ready. She made me wait another 10 minutes, while people who arrived to order after me received their orders faster. The food is delicious, the portions are large, and the decorations are nice, but they need to work on their customer service. LA COMIDA TIENE BUEN SABOR, AVECES SE PASAN DE SAL, COMO AYER EL CEVICHE TENIA TANTA SAL QUE SE VEIA EN EL FONDO DEL PLATO. EL SERVICIO ME SORPRENDE CADA VEZ MAS, HACE UN PAR DE SEMANAS FUIMOS A COMER, NOS SENTARON Y NOS TOMARON LA ORDEN, Y UNOS MOMENTOS DESSPUES LLEGO UN GRUPO DE UNAS 8 PERSONAS, LA MESERA NOS DIJO QUE NOS IBA A MOVER A OTRA MESA, SE LLEVO LOS CUBIERTOS, LA CANCHITA QUE DAN A LA OTRA MESA Y SENTÓ AL GRUPO EN LA MESA EN DONDE ESTABAMOS, ESO NO ME PARECIO BIEN. SI ELLOS LLEGARON DESPUES DE NOSOTROS DEBIERON ESPERAR A QUE UNA MESA SE DESOCUPÉ, COMO EN OTROS RESTAURANTES. AYER 12/19/25 PEDIMOS 3 MENUS A LAS 12PM POR TELÉFONO, LA MESERA ME DIJO 25 MINUTUS, YO LLEGUE 45 MINUTOS DESPUES, DANDOLES TIEMPO SUFICIENTE Y AUN ASI LA ORDEN NO ESTABA LISTA, ME HIZO ESPERAR UNOS 10 MINITOS MÁS, MIENTRAS TANTO GENTE QUE LLEGO A ORDENAR DESPUES QUE YO LE DABAN SU ORDEN MAS RÁPIDO. LA COMODA ES RICA, LAS PORCIONES SON GRANDES, LAS DECORACIONES BONITAS, PERO EL SERVICIO AL CLIENTE DA MUCHO QUE DESEAR.”

Not only the party and the staff, but the cuisine! ❤️ The appetizers (some of the freshest, delecate, perfectly prepared calamari), desserts (all amazing), main dishes (I had the salmon...yum!), but that salad dressing!!! It is the most delicious, freshest of flavors! Many of us purchased a bottle to bring home (I live in another state) and enjoy it immensely. i wished I lived nearby.

The man who picked up the phone was so accommodating and made sure that the customized message had the correct spelling of my name. When the cake was picked up, the lady was extremely lovely and kind. 10/10 would recommend and will be buying another birthday cake (very soon) from this bakery. I have also visited this bakery before to buy a n emergency cake and they have lots in the display case available. Perfect, delicious cakes. The one I got (raspberry chocolate mouse) was semi sweet and light, good for adults.”
Vietnamese • $
“I recently had the pleasure of discovering Hello Vietnam, a Vietnamese restaurant located in Rockville, MD, and it was love at first bite. I cannot sing enough praises about this hidden gem. The standout dish at Hello Vietnam is undoubtedly their "phở thố đá sườn bò". This is hands down one of the most special pho dishes I have ever had the pleasure of savoring. The beef ribs are cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The broth is rich and aromatic, and the noodles are perfectly cooked. It is a true symphony of flavors that is both comforting and oh-so-delicious. There are many other options that are as delicious such as “bánh cuốn”, “bánh đúc, “bún bò Huế”, etc. The best part? The prices at Hello Vietnam are incredibly affordable, making this culinary delight accessible to all. Beyond the exceptional food, the customer service at Hello Vietnam is truly top-notch. The staff members are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They know exactly what is expected of them and go above and beyond to ensure that every diner has a memorable dining experience. Their warm and affectionate demeanor makes you feel right at home, adding an extra layer of charm to the overall dining experience. The location of Hello Vietnam is also quite convenient, making it easy to find and access. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere in which to enjoy your meal. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or planning a leisurely dinner with friends and family, Hello Vietnam has you covered. I have had the pleasure of dining at Hello Vietnam twice now, and I can confidently say that I will keep coming back whenever I am in town. The delicious and unique dishes, exceptional customer service, convenient location, and welcoming setting make this restaurant a true standout in the Rockville dining scene. Don't miss the opportunity to experience it for yourself – you will not be disappointed!”

“Highly recommend the ninja crispy chicken for $11.50, which pairs nicely with the beef on rice. It feels like it is straight out of a Taiwanese street food YouTube video!The chicken is pounded very flat and long and seasoned to be both salty and a bit sweet, though I would recommend removing it from the container very quickly as the cardboard it is delivered in retains a lot of heat causing the chicken to become soggy the longer it stays wrapped up.Otherwise, I’d highly recommend!”

Had their Lao khao soi for the first time and the freshness and quality of spare ribs and minced pork are top notch. Service can be slow as there is typically only one server working at lunch and I feel that they should have one more server as service can be slow at times. A huge bonus that they are on the AA dining program.”

“This is a Chinese restaurant located in Rockville Town Center. The interior has a unique and stylish design, making it a nice spot for casual gatherings with family or friends.
The food leans toward Sichuan-style flavors, with a focus on spicy and numbing dishes. Overall, the taste is solid - nothing particularly outstanding, but also no major disappointments. Dishes like mala dry pot and boiled fish come in large portions. For two people with average appetites, especially if you’re close friends and don’t mind sharing, one dish could be enough.
There is a paid parking garage nearby that offers 90 minutes of free parking, just a 2–3 minute walk from the restaurant.
Overall, a decent and reliable option in the area.”

Service was attentive and warm throughout the meal. We’ll definitely be back!”

They were very helpful and knowledgeable about what was gluten free on the menu and made sure to bring out the salads and explain which one was which. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend the pargiyot skewer but was not personally a fan of the lam kebab flavor. When the waiter came over and asked how everything was, I told him everything was great. He saw I had not eaten the lamb and asked me about it. Im not a complainer so I said it just wasn’t my taste. Well, when we brought us the check, he only charged us for the pargiyot and comped the lamb! I am blown away by my experience at Al Ha’esh. Excellent customer service and food! 👍”

Dim Sum • $$
“It was our second time here. We had dim sum both times. They have one the best dim sum food in Maryland, and it is available all day. You order off the menu instead of the push carts so you can be sure to get what you want. Service was prompt, restaurant was clean, and food quality and flavor were good. There were a couple of tables with older guests speaking Cantonese. It is how you know it is authentic. We will return and try other Cantonese and Hong Kong dishes in the menu.”

“Well-prepared authentic Chinese food. If you are adventurous and would like authentic Chinese food (especially spicy ones though not all of the dishes are spicy), this is the place. We got the mix and match and it was delicious and prob more like a good portion for 3 people. Great splendid fish dishes. And the frog pots! Free 2 hour parking in the garage behind the place.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gourmet Express, and I must say that my experience surpassed all expectations. This restaurant truly excels in providing outstanding service, affordable prices, and exceptional quality, making it a top-notch culinary destination. I saw some complaints about having to pay .50 cents more and other bizarre comments. We need to understand about cost fluctuation of ingredients and sourcing and skilled staff and labor costs. There food is very good. Let's help the local business owners and genuinely let them know with any issues. I am sure they will listen.”

His attentiveness and his kind invitation for our group to use the karaoke room, elevated our visit to a memorable occasion. The food was exceptional, and I believe the pricing is reasonable given the quality. I will certainly be returning and recommending this establishment to others. Andrew, your service was truly outstanding.”

“Lunch with small group on a quiet winter weekday no one else in the place. My steakhouse burger was nicely cooked but non-memberable. The place did provide me with the option for a side salad instead of fries, which was made with fresh greens and very tasty. My friend was able to get her burger on gluten-free bread, and they nicely put her accompanying fries on a separate plate for the rest of us to nosh on.”

“I'm a regular at Angelo's almost every Tuesday during the fall middle school and spring high school softball seasons. I stop there between the game I umpire and teaching religious education around the corner at St. Patrick's. I will say that the quality at Angelo's is outstanding. I usually do a combination cheeseburger sub or steak and cheese. They are excellent. Plus, the fries are real fries that come out of the deep frier nice and crispy. I often will treat my religious education class to pizzas from Angelo's and they always tell me it's good pizza. Finally, they have Little Gina's pizzels. They're an Italian cookie my Italian mom would make and they are exactly like she would cook them. So, if you want some great pizza or sub plus some really crispy fries, I highly recommend Angelo's. Maybe I'll see you there some Tuesday!”

“I had a delicious lunch at Eerkin's in Rockville today. My friend and I shared an eggplant salad, an order of manta dumplings stuffed with pumpkin, and an order of fried noodles with chicken. Everything was delicious. The portions were very generous. We enjoyed making our choice from the tea bar--one serving with a complimentary refill was plenty for two people. Service was friendly and attentive. Parking is convenient and free for the first two hours. Looking forward to a return trip!”

“I hired Tiger the Tomato Flyer himself to drive his brilliantly restored International Harvester red truck to cater an extended family reunion in our backyard. Such a success that I doubt anyone else in the family will outdo us in the future, and will likely push to do it all over again in 5 years. Even Great Uncle Horace from North Carolina praised the fresh, hot pizza in absence of his perpetual hog bbq! This is just a fantastic experience for any event, and dive into Tiger's Gemma Gelato for an amazizzzzin' cap off to the feast. Followed by many more beers and wines from his truck also. This approach pleases ALL, ya'll ... adults, children, family characters of all types, and even Great Uncle Horace !”

“I recently had the pleasure of discovering Hello Vietnam, a Vietnamese restaurant located in Rockville, MD, and it was love at first bite. I cannot sing enough praises about this hidden gem. The standout dish at Hello Vietnam is undoubtedly their "phở thố đá sườn bò". This is hands down one of the most special pho dishes I have ever had the pleasure of savoring. The beef ribs are cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The broth is rich and aromatic, and the noodles are perfectly cooked. It is a true symphony of flavors that is both comforting and oh-so-delicious. There are many other options that are as delicious such as “bánh cuốn”, “bánh đúc, “bún bò Huế”, etc. The best part? The prices at Hello Vietnam are incredibly affordable, making this culinary delight accessible to all. Beyond the exceptional food, the customer service at Hello Vietnam is truly top-notch. The staff members are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They know exactly what is expected of them and go above and beyond to ensure that every diner has a memorable dining experience. Their warm and affectionate demeanor makes you feel right at home, adding an extra layer of charm to the overall dining experience. The location of Hello Vietnam is also quite convenient, making it easy to find and access. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere in which to enjoy your meal. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or planning a leisurely dinner with friends and family, Hello Vietnam has you covered. I have had the pleasure of dining at Hello Vietnam twice now, and I can confidently say that I will keep coming back whenever I am in town. The delicious and unique dishes, exceptional customer service, convenient location, and welcoming setting make this restaurant a true standout in the Rockville dining scene. Don't miss the opportunity to experience it for yourself – you will not be disappointed!”

“Stopped by close to closing and the owner was very gracious. She offered to modify dishes when she learned of our dietary restrictions and made great suggestions. I have a feeling the liquor drinks will be phenomenal because the care that went into the ingredients, process, and presentation of the tea drinks were next level. It was very satisfying to watch her make them!
So glad I discovered a new, local spot to go to!”

“This is a solid place and a gem in Rockville & MoCo as they are the first restaurant to serve Laotian food. Their fried fish tofu is my go to app: it is delicately made and on point. Had their Lao khao soi for the first time and the freshness and quality of spare ribs and minced pork are top notch. Service can be slow as there is typically only one server working at lunch and I feel that they should have one more server as service can be slow at times. A huge bonus that they are on the AA dining program.”

“We stopped by this Salvadorian-Mexican restaurant for breakfast and had a great experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
I ordered the Salvadorian típico, which came with scrambled eggs mixed with shredded beef, sweet plantains, and traditional sides. Everything was well seasoned and cooked just right. We also tried the cheese pupusas, and they were excellent. Hot, cheesy, and full of flavor. The coffee was really good and completed the breakfast.
Customer service also stood out. The cashier was friendly, polite, and welcoming, which made the visit even better.
Overall, everything was on point. From the food to the service, this is a great spot if you are looking for authentic Salvadorian food or a solid breakfast. We will definitely be back.”

“We used a Groupon to give this place a try and we were pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious! We ordered takeout — we chose both Italian and Persian items. The rigatoni, the dinner salad and the salmon kabobs were all well-prepared, great portion, very enjoyable. But the star of the meal was the Italian meatball appetizer, which could be a meal to itself. Let me say that my mother’s side is Southern Italian from outside of Naples, and was part of the immigrant generation 100 years ago that invented spaghetti and meatballs. I have never had a restaurant meatball that compares to our family recipe. Until now. This comes very close. Big meatballs, full of flavors, made with care, excellent sauce. I was so pleased. The decor is bright, the owners are friendly, the vibe is a warm neighborhood spot. It is a short walk from the Shady Grove Metro Station, on the other side of 355 from King Farm. This neighborhood has needed a place like this for a long time. Great meal, nice experience.”
