50 Best American Restaurants near Wheaton Glenmont

“The waiters was great. Was also very eager to explain anything that here in America we don't normally use like bangers meaning the sausages so food was phenomenal. Great portion sizes for the prices and definitely would go back. The service is top notch and the food like I said can't be beat.“

“A thoughtful shared plates experience. We followed the wise recommendations of our server and were rewarded. Nice spot. Excellent yet not pretentious.“

“We love coming to Opal for the amazing food, libations and attentive staff. Recently I booked a company dinner with them and the food selections and service were impeccable, as always! Everyone enjoyed having the upstairs for our event and are looking forward to hosting another event with you soon!“

“Had a great experience. I would definitely come back next time we are in DC.“

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“The food was excellent for my wife's birthday dinner. However we had been given a Gifty card for this event that was refused as payment by the staff. We had to pay with a regular credit card. On subsequent review of the Gifty website, Persimmon is listed as a participating restaurant. They should be blacklisted for this customer service fiasco.“

“This would be my second time at Huncho House and it has not disappointed! I shared the wagyu cheesesteak eggrolls and charbroiled oysters with my wife followed by the seared sea scallops as my entree while my wife had the jerk short ribs. Overall 10/10 and the customer service was amazing.“

“From the moment I stepped through the doors, it was immediately clear that this establishment operates on an entirely different level. The cuisine was nothing short of exceptional—elevated in both flavor and presentation, rivaling even the most renowned culinary institutions. Every dish was a harmonious blend of creativity and precision, truly exemplifying top-tier gastronomy. What impressed me even more, however, was the service. It transcended the standard of hospitality, offering a level of attentiveness and professionalism that felt both effortless and sincere. The staff anticipated needs before they were expressed, creating an experience that was as seamless as it was memorable. In all sincerity, this is one of the finest dining experiences I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. A rare combination of extraordinary food and impeccable service, it’s a restaurant that sets a new benchmark for excellence.“

“Our son lives in the area and we have been here 4-5 since January ( every time we visit) The owners are wonderful and the staff very attentive The fish taco appetizer is wonderful ( can be enough for an entree if not wanted a big meal) I’ve had many of the entrees and never a bad meal . The chocolate dessert is my go to“

“Matchbox used to be one of my favorite restaurant chains. Now that it's owned by some big corporate company, it sucks. The drinks and food are expensive at the Mosaic location. and there for very few people there. It used to have such a great vibe; it was always full of people at the tables and the bar. please bring back the original owners!“

“Food choices were amazing and my server was top notch!! There were so many options on the menu. Can't wait to go back. I had the crab dip and the Kona Steak Skewers for apps. Along with Seafood Ravioli as an entree. Oh, the Jameson Whiskey cocktail was delightful as well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Food and service was fantastic, however the reason my family and I had to rate it so low is due to the seating and table. Absolutely no leg space!! We were so cramp and the table was very high so our feet couldn't even touch the ground. It made our experience horrible! Also the people at the desk had a bad attitude. We lost a gem from a ring and dropped our name and number in case they find it at our table. They gave us a very dirty look and scoffed.“

“Mother’s Day celebration with family was especially great because of the amazing atmosphere and awesome service at Barrel and Crow. It was our first time visiting this establishment and certainly will not be our last. Shout out to the owner and her staff.“

“Thanks Bussboys for your hospitality during our group’s visit last Thursday . I traveled with my church choir (Tulane MB Church from Yazoo City, Ms). We dined in for breakfast and the food was AMAZING“

“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!“

“What a great place to eat! Per the owner I needed to order the Certa-Pro. It was FANTASTIC 👋👋👋👋👋. The day before I enjoyed an egg ham omelet. The owner has a wicked awesome sense of humor. I ordered my Certa with. I veggies and got the look!…. Get over there and eat!!!“

“I definitely recommend the Cajun fries over the chicken tenders.“

“Great place; the atmosphere, staff, and food are amazing. 3 levels with something different offered. So much fun. Great cocktails!“

“we loved Burton's in Riverdale Park, MD! food was delicious and very accommodating to allergens. extensive gluten free menu including wings, fried calamari, pasta, crispy fish, crab cakes, and more. everything was delicious and our server was super nice as well. wish there was one of these in Union County, NJ! So amazing to know all their food is made from scratch 👍👍“

“Friendly staff and good food cooked to order!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best Salmon BLT I’ve ever had! Will come back!“

“I had the local strawberry and watermelon salad and it was the most original and delicious thing I've eaten all summer. Combines sweet and juicy with crunchy and savory, with a great house-made dressing. I wish I'd tried this place sooner.“

“Just overall awesomeness!“

“Absolutely spectacular! The food, the atmosphere, the event coordinator, the staff, absolutely everything was top notch. We absolutely loved it.“

“While it has been years since I visited BlackSalt, I had previously lived close to the restaurant when it first opened. The food and service has only improved in my opinion. I suspect that Restaurant Week can cause many restaurants to be overwhelmed with diners, and this stress can lead to hiccups in service and food preparation. From the moment we were greeted at the hostess stand, the service provide was beyond excellent. The entire staff works as a team and would come/go from our table as if knowlingly carefully rehearsed, working in concert, to perfection- and again, it was Restaurant Week- if there is any reason to be "in the weeds" and slip, this week would be a perfect excuse. Our server was attentive to our needs, the GM was helping out and frequently inquired as to our needs and the food was FANTASTIC. We can't wait to go back and try other things from their menu and are kicking ourselves for waiting so long for a repeat visit. We won't be making that mistake again- we can't stress enough how important it is for other diners to visit for the dining and culinary experience that is BlackSalt!“

“Great atmosphere and good food.“

“I "cried" when my fave VEGAN or VEGETARIAN "GO-to" eat-in place closed all their locations around Boston. That was sadly & formerly GrainMaker .. (gone now) However DiG has grown on me as their deFACTO replacement for all FRESH VEGGIES and otherwise ALL FRESH MEAL VEGAN or VEGETERIAN eats and eat-in place! This is becoming my greatly reccomended "hidden vegan and veggie gem" in Boston with LOTS of locations. They have 3 locations thus far in Boston and 2 in Cambridge. I hav ONLY visited their downtown location thus far! Just as formerly with GrainMaker, DiG is as close to authentic home cooked! & genuinely HEALTHY! AND fresh meals that you can get to. Always fresh veggies, steamed & otherwise. --(they also serve a variety of proteins, as in variety of meats and fish, but i stay vegan. I have NEVER tried any of their meats or fish here.. ONLY their veggies and seasoned TOFU on occasion.. more oft than not, i do not even get their TOFU as a protein and opt to feast on JUST their steamed or boiled or baked veggies, bases. like rice and excellent mixed veggie salads sides!) Have been frequenting it for about 2 years since 2023 now, but held off on reviewing it until i was SURE of my experiences here. Decided to review it today bcs "it's time". I spoke to the very customer service oriented and responsibve supervisor here at this location, his name is DiJuan and was served by Adonis today and he was also very accommodating (after i explained i eat vegan) and on showing me my MANY fresh veggie choices, bases, proteins (including delish prepared Tofu) and PLENTY of heavenly veggie sides, all preped like you'd expect to find in a Thanksgiving grand day family meal. (AND they do this EVERY DAY!! ) This is HEALTHY eats and quite tasty and delish! See my posted pic w this review of my choice of eats today. In short, just today, i started with very little brown rice as my base and added 2 types of their fresh salad, Cannellini Beans w dill & greens along with their steamed or boiled Kale greens and added also a sweet potato that had been steamed & also steamed brocolli. I LUV eating fresh, healthy, TASTY and "homemade style" (as in NOT processed!!). I added their Garlic dressing to top it off. It came to something like 10+ bucks (B4 tax)! Unheard of !! for a BIG & FULLY portioned full veggie plate like this! BIG PORTION of a FULL PLATE! -- i declined, as usual to get any protein with my meal today, is why, STiLL i got a HUGE portioned plate! ( I normally HAVE2 order 2 - 3 separate orders and combine them, at HoneyGrow, anuther fave local "vegan" franchise in Boston, in order to get filled up if i'm only eating OMAD, as in One-meal-a-Day, in order to get full elsewhere usually!). They have a FAMILY (feeds4) option after 3pm every day that feeds 4-5 people (adults not kids) for like $43. QUITE A BARGAIN for something like this. AND it look like a Thankgiving day meal to top it off! --(formerly anuther non-vegan place "had this", now gone, called Boston Market. However they LOADED their side protions and even base meal with SO MUCH SALT, yuck! so that was ALL you could taste. THEY supposedly made home made, but found out NOT SO!!, theirs was loaded with processed sh*t, like their supposedly home-made mashed potatoes were the powder kind, loaded with pseudo milk and SALT, YUCK!!) NOT SO ! with this place.. DiG is 180 degrees fr tht.. This is truly GREAT tasting REAL and "home-prepped" veggies. They are winning me over from my other 2 "go-to's" "vegan-ish" franchises in Boston whcih have steadily been declining for various reasons, those being Bon-Me (their employees, over at Bon-Me for last 2-3 years it seems at ALL locations i have tried, simply do not undertsand nor speak english for the most part, their food WEN i can get it ordered the way i want it, is generally good, oft times its taken over 2 returned plates in order to get it prepared the way i orderd it.. v“

“Fantastic food and fellowship with some amazing scientists and staff from NIH/NCI this Holiday season. 🎄🍭😊“

“The grilled chicken sandwich with guacamole comes with french fries. It was delicious.“

“Great cuisine, my risotto was just loaded with black truffle. The menu evolves with the season, and the staff is super friendly. Few places around Olney that I'm impressed by, and I can't wait to go back.“

“I have been to this place about 10 years ago by one of my golf members who was an army veteran. My back ground is culinary/hospitality industry and was so impressed by service and also food quality.. His family and my family celebrated our special occasions every year. Now, we are coming back here again on August 27th to celebrate his 68th wedding anniversary and their 90years birthday also. This is his wife's pick and I and he are excited for next week event.“

“Loved it, will definitely go again! Highly recommend!“

“One of MD best dinners. This place would go head to head with any of NJ establishments.“

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

“We had an excellent experience at Medium Rare. The staff was extremely attentive, the food was delicious. It was fresh, hot and generous portions- both times! The servers were particularly were extremely aware of dietary restrictions and even comped us two glasses of champagne as we were celebrating an anniversary. Because of how thoughtful and professional everyone at Medium Rare is, it is a favorite place for celebrations - or just because we want to.“

“Stopped in this afternoon to find delicious food and warm, welcoming hospitality. As a longtime resident of Woodley Park, Tavern 18 is the PERFECT new addition to our neighborhood! Starting next week they’ll have Trivia Night and Karaoke and Happy Hour specials 4-7 PM, Mon-Fri. Multiple TVs for hometown sports and a large patio for outdoor dining. Forewarned: crab fries are addictive!“

“Great local great food , gotta go early, sadly don't take reservations“

“Great dogs and beer selection. Cheese fries were also delicious. Would recommend to try this spot if in Bethesda, MD.“

“Great food and drinks. Weekend live music!“

“So cozy! Delicious food and friendly staff.“

“Great breakfast. Fried fish a chicken good with their tasty potatoe wedges.“

“Good breakfast and fun with the juke boxes.“

“I think this may be one of the more overlooked gems in DC. I've dined here 3x, each being a great experience. Although accolade and press worthy, I selfishly like how it's not highly coveted. Aside from wonderful food, the ambience is ideal for conversation, for biz, a celebration, or on a date no matter.“

“Omggggggg. Where do i start. Let me say. Thannnk you. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium well as i requested. And the peppercorn flavor was a plusss. Delisssh. I dont eat cheese eggs but it i tried it and it was good not wet but well done n still cheesy. N it came wit homefries and grits.... I really appreciate tis meal. I was treating myself n indeed. I did. Thank u. Uve a customer forever.... Thank u for makin my meal wit some love and care.“

“I’ve been seeing this new place develop but hadn’t had a chance to go in until today. While waiting for my prescription at CVS up the block, I tried their soup of the day. The front of the house has a few tables and a counter, giving the impression of a typical take-out joint. But they have the next store front too, with comfortable high and low tables. Since I was eating in, I was served on nice china, glassware, and real utensils. The Broccoli cheddar soup was excellent. It’s very clean and bright and the restroom is too. This is a much needed addition to the 12th St business district. I wish them much success. I’ll go for the full menu for sure. Hope you do too!“
