“Wonderful first experience. Invited to attend "Seniors Don't Eat Alone" waiter Kevin was very attentive, knowledgeable and understanding of Seniors!!! Our second experience, was again great. We joined "DINE OUT MARYLAND" and saw Libs Fulton was on the registry. Four of us had reservations at 4:00 we asked to be seated at a 6 top and the hostess just smiled and seated the 4 of us. Then noticed that Kevin was once again our waiter. He took the drink orders perfectly. Unfortunately, my BEEF & BURRATA was tepid at best. Kevin nicely removed and had remade without issue. The MOD brought my diner back pipping hot and apologized with a smile. Prior to ordering, we had inquired if the Dine Out MD was accepted and provided our ID. Keven again handled. Next another personable young man brought back the bill and spoke with us. He was informing us of the upcoming expansion of the Libs restaurants. He stated he was going to be at the new location in Towson. Great experience. All three individuals showed great customer service. BTW - our food was delicious....“

“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!“

“Absoutely loved BurgerFi at White Marsh they did a great job accommodating a 13th birthday party after an Activate event ... made for a wonderful experience. Highly recommend!“

“The menu is seasonal so there is aways something to try. The Parker house rolls and amazing variety and low price of oysters for happy hour may be things of the past, but the food and service are consistently superior at Clyde's. We've been eating here for over a decade now and continue to enjoy dining it.“

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

“I’ve lived in the DMV for 13 years and take visitors here. They love it. Not many greasy spoons this good still around and no greasy spoons with this atmosphere. Great staff and lots of regulars. If you’re in the area for lunch, grab a cheesesteak.“

“Have loved Medium Rare since the first time I went. You already know what you're gettijg before you go, unless you go during brunch hours on the weekend and you can change it up a little bit. The food is always phenomenal though and the staff is always so amazing and friendly. Def one of my family's favorite spots to dine. Just be aware of parking depending on which location you go to....still not a bad thing, just saying know where to park. Seeing this makes me want to go back this week now lol.“

“Just overall awesomeness!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Needed a quick bite to eat while waiting for the MVA. I met J the owner and he left a great impression on me. He was professional, very hospitable, funny, he ensured I was satisfied with how my food looked as I ordered to go. He ensured the quality of the food was fresh by informing me that my potatoes and onions were peeled and cut the morning of. I see why and how he has been in business for over 40 years! I will be back just because the service was superb and my breakfast was delicious and the price is affordable!“

“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 👍👍“

“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!“

“Had lunch here for the first time. The chopped salad with chicken was so good! Thanks to all the diligent service personnel. Planning on coming back for dinner sometime by the looks of the menu. They have an outside dining area which I’d like to try.“

“Great food and drinks. Weekend live music!“

“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!“

“We had salmon and a filet, and they were wonderfully prepared. The atmosphere around the bar was very pleasant. The staff is marvelously friendly.
The front door is hard to find. (It's in the courtyard.) They need some good directional signage!“

“I love this place with all my heart.“

“Cute neighborhood spot. Selection of drinks and oven fired pizza. The happy hour was vast with a cute list of specialty drinks. We came to catch up but I wasn't impressed with the menu. Definitely, a lot of vegan or trendy dishes but nothing popped out. She settled on the Beet Salad with Salmon and I a chicken sandwich with home fries. She liked her salad but I wasn't impressed with my selection. It was indeed a hearty portion but did have much flavor. The spicy Aoil is what gave it elevation. The fries were very oily and didn't have any salt. I only ate the bottom half with toppings and 1 fry. The Witches Brew was strong but needed to be microwaved. I wouldn't come back but I hear it's a neighborhood watering hole. Maybe the weekend brunch or pizza offering is better.“
