“The entire experience was awesome! We didn’t have reservations, as we just came from a show. They worked us in and the tapas style dining was just what we needed for an upscale, late-night meal. Flavor was out of this world and presentation was art! I’ll definitely be back & highly recommend the ninniku noodles with duck confit. 🤤“

“The food appears... lesser quantity than in DC. The biscuits were smaller, and harder. I saw no bacon. The sausage (pork or chicken) was not "week done" as with the DC restaurant. Also there wasn't any shrimp. I got there at 9:am, and was told reservations were needed. So I Sat at the bar. Def a 3.5 rating on food here“

“We had an excellent time at Circa. Not only was the food delicious, but our server, Mary, had great recommendations when we asked for food, drinks, and dessert! She was very attentive (but not overly so) and ensured all our orders came out smoothly and to our liking. We would return just to have her as our server again!“

“Excellent food and service!! Will definitely come back.“

“We hosted a happy hour there, staff are super fun and nice, food is awesome, cocktail is really good!“

“Rivka the voluptuous bar manager came over to comp after our machete quesadilla debacle and took care of us.

Shout out to Dan the bartender for taking care of us all night.

Highly recommend the dancing Molly oysters as an appetizer. The restaurant is absolutely a beautiful place. The food is innovative, creative, and most importantly delicious. Portion size is perfect and accurate and you will not leave hungry. Every single dish was amazingly unique, It was an absolute amazing experience. The servers did an excellent job explaining each course in detail. The presentation was impeccable. the flavors were unmistakably and deliciously Tex-Mex.“

“Excellent dinner and drinks.“

“Perfect venue. All seats are good because the room is just big enough, not too big. Sound is great.
The Barns at Wolftrap has the feel of a secluded cabin in the woods with a romantic vibe. You can purchase drinks and snacks in the adjoining room and socialize. People are friendly. The place has a homey feel. There is an intermission half way through so you can get more coffee or snacks.
Perfect place for first date or any date, since there is time for chatting, and then listening together. The grounds around the venue are wooded. Highly recommend!!!!! PS- good idea to do a test drive to the venue, before the actual date, to be sure you can find it without a hitch.“

“Just an incredible restaurant - amazing food out of this world our server was simply impressive with one month on the job - I can't say enough good things about him. I will always be back !!!“

“Our son recently moved to Arlington and he said this was the best Italian food that he ever had! Last night we went there for dinner and couldn't agree with him more. We had some initial issues with our service and seating , but the General Manager, Stefano and our waitress Shandra took care of us and the service that they gave us was outstanding; probably the best that I ever had at a restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious! We will be back every time that we visit our son. There are so many dishes that I cannot wait to try and the pasta is all homemade. Thanks for making our dinner so special. We love it here!“

“Best rooftop in Bethesda. Beautiful sunsets and fabulous cocktails! 🍸“

“Everything is 5/5. Our server was awesome, he even opened the door on our way out, which I have never experienced at a regular restaurant. Felt like a very high-end fine dining experience, with everything cooked to perfection. Dinner menu 80 dollars per person was awesome, I recommend getting shrimp pajeon, corn cheese, octopus salad, cold noodle, and patbingsoo. soft crab soup had more sweet taste so it wasn't as good as I thought, and beef fried rice was mid. Meat was high quality, and the visual when they bring out is STUNNING. Wow bravo this restaurant, they will open one in 14th street in DC and I can't wait to try that experience.“

“Kinda unfair. Tried the esquites and the special tacos. Also had the watermelon Fresca and horchata. Liked the elote and drinks. The special tacos were okay. Meat was kinda plain. I'll try their regular menu next time because all that was tasty. Esquites had really nice smoky crema.“

“absolutely delicious and would recommend to anyone!“

“Fun and cheerful vibes. There's a small selection of entrees you can choose from but all are carefully curated. The mochi waffle was very good and not overly sweet. The French omelette was tender but too salty. The tater tots were like normal tots and the dipping sauces were good. Good casual and fun place for friends and families.“

“We were in town from Columbus for a wedding and stopped in here for some drinks and had a wonderful time!! The bartender made awesome recommendations and made our evening fun!! Will definitely be back next time we are in DC!!!“

“Amazing food and service! Best brisket I have ever had! The staff is very pleasant and the prices are affordable. Highly recommend if you travel to the DC area.“

“Amazing!! 10/10!! Stopped in for a quick bite before a Nationals game, will definitely be planning on doing the exact same thing again!!“

“Amazing food and great service.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had such a wonderful dining experience at Linjee Thai Restaurant! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and attentive service that continued throughout our meal. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel right at home without being overbearing — they struck the perfect balance of professionalism and hospitality.

The ambiance of the restaurant is cozy and inviting, with tasteful, modern Thai-inspired décor that creates a relaxed yet stylish atmosphere. The lighting is soft and warm, perfect for a comfortable dinner setting, and the space feels clean and well cared for. We also appreciated the subtle attention to detail in the presentation — from the neatly set tables to the beautifully plated dishes.

I ordered the sweet chili chicken, super delicious fried to perfection, shrimp fried rice, and it was absolutely delicious — flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and full of fresh, juicy shrimp. The rice had a great texture and wasn’t greasy at all, which can sometimes be the case with fried rice. My husband had the chicken lo mein, and he was really impressed with how fresh and well-balanced it was. The noodles were tender, the vegetables crisp, and the sauce brought everything together beautifully without being too heavy.

To accompany our meals, we each tried one of their specialty cocktails. I had the Blush & Bubbles — light, bubbly, and just sweet enough to be refreshing. My husband ordered the Berry Down Sangria and loved the fruity flavor with just the right amount of depth. Both drinks were well-crafted and a great complement to our meals.

Overall, everything about our visit — from the warm service to the thoughtful décor and flavorful dishes — made it a truly enjoyable experience. Linjee Thai is definitely a place we’ll be coming back to and recommending to friends. A true hidden gem!

I wanna go back already.“

“The menu was extensive and slightly $$$. Drinks were pricey. However, surprisingly the portions were sharable and delicious! Presentation was fab. The 3 of us shared a whole fish(1-2 people 2lbs) and a risotto. The fish dish was presented beautifully w lettuce, basil, cilantro and threaded noodles w a sauce to make lettuce wrap with the deboned whole fish. It’s was a fabulous meal!“

“The food is amazing and the service outstanding! recommend it 💯“

“I ordered the Nancy Special and it was delicious!“

“Fresh, delicious sushi, amazing service and vibe check on point!
We got the best, most epic sushi boat I've ever seen in my life. The fatty tuna and the salmon belly sashimi is probably the best sushi I've ever had. The wagyu was also super delicious and we love how it's served on a banana leaf. We can't wait to try their other dishes like Udon and Wagyu Sukiyak“

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

“Delicious food, fast and friendly service. I really liked the Tokyo mule. Recommend!“

“Thank you so much to Martha, Tom, Jason, Sarah, and the entire team who made my gathering at Alta today so special!! Martha really went above and beyond by arranging to have the surprise decor, balloon bouquet, and party favors for my guests and me! I was so overwhelmed by her thoughtfulness.“

“My neighborhood spot. So much culture and delicious mediterranean food. Incredible service and atmosphere I absolutely love everything on the menu. The cocktails are delicious every time - the pistachio martini is an absolute must. Always a vibe with the playlist and service is top notch. Rohat is so kind and hospitable! Can't wait to see what's in store for this spot! I'll be back over and over!“

“Excellent Food, Good Service, Friendly Servers, I can’t wait to dine again!!! Good Vibe!“

“Great wine tasting night!!“

“Had a great evening catching up at this amazing Italian spot. Reservations are recommended, but we sat at the bar and had a fantastic time. Will definitely be back to try more of the delicious food. Amazing staff, always smiles, never made us feel rushed and gave us lots of laughs.“
