21 Best American Restaurants in Rockville

“ABSOLUTELY EXCEPTIONAL! This place should be considered a landmark in the region! The manager, Miriam, is by far the most welcoming, sincere, friendly person anyone can ever meet! I mean she could teach classes on how to treat people right. My family and I were there celebrating and our first time there, and we’ve never experienced such a welcoming kindness, at any establishment, anywhere, she was amazing. Equally as impressive is the restaurant itself! It transports you from Maryland/DC to an Adirondack lodge! The food was very delicious and fairly priced with large portions (the portions you can turn leftovers into dinner the next day). I definitely recommend the chicken parm or meatloaf. When making a reservation, make sure you request the grand room with the fireplaces! And shout out to Cody as well for being an excellent waiter as well, very professional, very welcoming. This place was FANTASTIC will be the go-to place for every occasion, and it all started with stellar customer service from the moment you walk to the front desk to check in“

“Food and wine are never a fail. This is my spot.“

“We have been enjoying the amazing food at Hard Times Cafe for many years!! Our favorites are the chili of course & the original chicken wings. The staff is always friendly & attentive. It is a no frills sort of place,but who needs frills with food this good!! Highly recommend!“

“The crab trap prepared and served a delicious broiled lump crab cake on top of a fantastic fresh salad with a yummy vinaigrette dressing. The cook was solo this afternoon so it took him a while longer than usual, and the parking lot was a bit chaotic, but this just added to the fun of ordering this level of meal from a truck. We also had the crab hushpuppies, which were moist inside and crispy on the outside.“

“Really great friendly service by the staff. I got the hummus plate and the pita points were amazing & warm and the hummus was delicious. I was a bit put off by the size & selection of the veggies they brought with it: huge pieces of carrots and like 5 what seemed like fairly raw asparagus. It wasn’t a deal breaker because those pita points were so soft and warm :-). Their cocktail drinks were amazing!“

“Today Mrs Field and I enjoyed breakfast on Columbus Day (or whatever you’d like to call it, as a federal employee that’s what’s in the law) and had an enjoyable, well paced, and fulfilling meal. The Healthy Turkey is recommended. Healthy for everyone but the turkey himself. And they let me take my remaining coffee to go!“

“My favorites are the crabcakes, bbq ribs and the coleslaw! Beautiful,welcoming atmosphere always.“

“I had a fantastic experience at Matchbox, largely thanks to Iliya’s outstanding service. From the moment we sat down, he was attentive, and incredibly welcoming without ever hovering.

The menu recommendations were spot-on, our drinks stayed full. Even with a busy bar, Iliya handled everything with genuine care, speed, and a great attitude that elevated the whole experience. It’s rare to see customer service this sharp and thoughtful - 5/5 stars!“

“Thanks! Food was excellent!“

“Good pastries, good coffee drinks and alcoholic drinks. Good venue for music.“

“The food here is extremely delicious and they have the best fries I've ever had from a restaurant. Scrumptious... if it wasn't as unhealthy and expensive as it is I'd eat here every day. It's my favorite vegan food place in Rockville. I always get the Egg Sammy and fries. 1000/10 Updated from previous review on 2026-01-12“

“I tried the Corned Beef King's Pestraminator!! Ohhh my goodness!! It was absolutely delicious! And the latkes was just amazing. It was worth the drive from Laurel to Rockville. I can see that I'm gonna be making that trip again real soon! Nice job Jon!!“

“Very good expirience, tried the cheesteak and the wings. Both were amazing. The woman serving us was very nice and offered great customer service. The old bay wings were perfectly crispy and well seasoned. The cheesesteak had a great combination of sauce, bread, topping and beef.“

“Had a wonderful visit to Fork & Kitchen today. The atmosphere and décor are lovely, and the staff made us feel right at home. The Crème Brûlée French Toast and Crab Cakes Benedict were both delicious, and the kids were thrilled with their chicken & pancakes and chicken fingers. The bottomless mimosas were top-notch as well! Highly recommend!“

“It was my first time visiting this establishment and will not be my last. The name World of Beer speaks for itself, very wide selection of can, bottled, or tap; impressive. As for the food, I judge an establishment by its wings, did I mention I'm definitely going back?“

“Jonathan provided excellent service. Very respectful, kind, and attentive. I felt very well taken care of throughout the entire experience. The customer service was outstanding, and I truly appreciate the professionalism and friendly attitude. Highly recommended!“

“It was my first time getting food from this food truck. I ordered buffalo chicken wrap and a veggie burrito. The food was extremely delicious and freshly prepared. I'll be going back soon to try other items on the menu. 100% recommend this truck.“

“The chicken cheesesteak is my favorite, excellent quality.“

“I can appreciate a business that has strong roots within the local community, and it's even better when the service is excellent! Special shout out to Mickey, Michelle, and Elizabeth at the Traville location. They were attentive and patient, making even just a takeout experience fantastic. I will be returning in the future!“

“Was staying at this hotel for one night and even though I had planned to go out I decided to stay on the property instead. King Farm Grill is the main restaurant at the Sheraton. The menu offers plenty of American cuisine options. Had the tomato and mozarella salad along with the turkey club sandwich. The tomatoes were not ripe enough but the mozzarella and balsamic were good. The turkey club was also delicious. This restaurant is a good choice if you are staying here. Service was very attentive and the bar serves lots of different spirits. It's fine for a "stay in" meal.“
