New American Restaurants near North Bethesda, MD

“Love the ambience. The bread assortment was delicious. It was a lot for two, so we shared a brunch dish of the hash, and they even brought it out on separate cast iron skillets for us. It needed a bit of salt, but was otherwise delicious and felt like a treat.“

“I had a lovely mother's Day dinner with my sons and my mother. Everything was delicious and the service was amazing.. My only complaint is that it was a little loud in there with a lot of people. But I guess there's nothing you can really do about that.“

“Very professional staff and very hospitable“

“Beautiful set up and ambience..“

“The environment is great, the menu is very diverse, and seemingly commonplace dishes manage to be innovative in flavor“

“Great food and excellent service. John was fantastic. 100% recommend“

“Had dinner before the Oh He Dead concert on Saturday December 17, 2022. We arrived a little before our seating and immediately were greeted and taken to our spots. Ian was outstanding! He was attentive, descriptive and helped create a good experience. Dan, our bartender, was magnificent. He created delectable cocktails and we also chatted along the way (we had bar seats which I highly recommend). This was very reasonably priced, we left very filled and happy. I want to give the highest possible compliments to Ian and Dan. The entire experience was perfect, largely because of the great food, but they took the experience well beyond a 1 star evening!“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“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“

“Lovely spot in the Dupont Circle Hotel. I don't usually choose hotel restaurants but this was a perfect spot for a quiet lunch with a friend. Our server, Miguel, was fantastic - very helpful, thoughtful, and just the right amount of time spent at our table. The GM (don't have his name) was also very nice - funny and attentive from start to finish. The food was very good, I had a salad with salmon on it, and my friend had the crispy salmon lunch. Highly recommend if you need a classy, quiet spot in downtown DC.“

“Came for dinner with some of my foodie friends who were in town. We got a bunch of appetizers to share. The Greek wings and the miso salad was out favorite!!The wings were crispy, hot and the dip was a great addition. The salad was super fresh and the crispy wontons on top was perfect.The queso taquitos and garlic olives were really good too. The ceviche was decent and the pork belly was really good. Everything was good and the items came out pretty quickly. We got there around 6:45 and it began to fill up after that.“

“We were celebrating a birthday, and asked for a quiet table, and we were seated in the Wine Room, and it was perfect. We shared a calamari appetizer, and had halibut and crab cakes for the entrees. We shared key lime pie for dessert, and the restaurant provided a special birthday dessert. Service was excellent, and the food was delicious.“

“From perfect candle lit lighting, pleasant staff, exceptional mixologists, and unique plate settings.. wow! Love the food, love the orange wine selection. Brussel sprouts plus the sauce, oh my god. Need that recipe, chef! Enjoy the pic. Cannot wait to come back to try the chicken.“

“We had an amazing dinning experience, especial thank you to Mohamed who was exceptionally dedicated to ensuring that our expectations were all met. Actually, everything was beyond our expectation. Everyone that we came across was very pleasant and caring. They highly value of their customers as demonstrated by their superior customer service from start to finish--a great team! Food was great as well and we even were provided small treats to take home! Anyone in the hospitality wishing to improve their customer satisfaction should learn from this great place--no one would want to go to a restaurant to eventually leave disappointed!“

“Incredible experience. Will be returning.“

“Buzzy place, quite busy for Sunday brunch. The cronut was fresh and delicious. The gravlax mezze plate was unusual which is why I ordered it. The food was good. But the music blasting spoiled the experience for me - and I was solo so wasn't trying to chat, which would have been impossible to hear anything!“

“One of the best dining experiences in DC. Chef Jeremiah is outstanding; the meal is creative but accessible, and each course is better than the previous. We are so grateful to have Dabney in DC!“

“Great placement highly recommend.Come here for lunch occasionally, always impressed by the service, atmosphere, and food.ServiceThe hostess was excellent, but what makes it special was as we were waiting for her to return (after she had just seated people ahead of us), the phone at her desk started ringing. Not missing a beat, she answered and politely put them on hold, and then seated us! Yes!!! Finally someone who understands you don’t answer a call and start talking when you already have customers standing in front of you of you! Our server Kelsey was also outstanding, introducing herself and taking care of us quickly and efficiently, very polite…kudos to her and the business!FoodAlways very flavorful and a wide variety of choices. The two of us ordered one lunch special of meatball and baby kale flatbread with asparagus soup, and a Maui Tuna Crunch salad. The flatbread was amazing, the sliced meatballs very flavorful, and the asparagus soup excellent. They do offer a gluten sensitive flatbread if desired. The Maui salad was also excellent, with perfectly seared tuna, but had a very large salad portion. Only small down was my wife asked for the dressing on the side, and it came in two separate very tiny portions, maybe a tablespoon each at best…for a huge salad. Had to ask for more, and our server again brought two more tiny portions, which was then enough. Not sure how it would have come if we had not asked for the dressing on the side, one seemed to be for the tuna, the other for the actual salad itself. Either way, very good, but a very large salad, a bit too much for lunch.Again, very much enjoy coming here.Will I come back…absolutely!Would I recommend …most definitely!“

“The iron skillet paella, the service, and their overall kindness was really great to this out of town visitor. 5 ⭐️“

“The service was immaculate. Really warm and kind people who were efficient and smart. PK was our waiter and did a great job. He left us all with a smile on our face. Excellent.“

“This cute, friendly American restaurant will not disappoint. Suitable for couples, families, and small groups, everyone can enjoy the comfortable ambience. Service was attentive and accommodating throughout the meal. Oh, and what a meal it was! I started with the fennel and arugula salad, which was refreshing and scrumptious. I had the braised beef for my main. It was moist, tender, and had a mouth watering balsamic demi-glace. The side of brussel sprouts were simply amazing. Overall, a great dining experience“

“We had 10:30 brunch reservation. The meal consists of several amazing courses. Delicious and beautiful presentations. Vegan and non-vegan members of my party enjoyed it very much. I liked how the servers paused between courses so that we didn't feel rushed. They gave us a menu in case we wanted to refer to what was being served. The servers were professional: attentive without hovering.“

“Tasting menu fab add the wine paring“

“First of all the place has a very nice ambience. The waitress was very hospitable and accommodating. Our order didn’t take long and the food is delicious! I would recommend this place.“

“Had dinner on a Saturday night - party of 4. A plus service and food. The service was very attentive and knowledgeable. Very helpful in wine selections within certain price points (and the recommendations were fantastic). But the FOOD!!! there was a special lobster appetizer that was phenomenal. For the regular menu the little gem salad was large and refreshing. I had the root vegetable soup and it was also great. For mains we had the tuna, pasta and steak. There wasn't a bad choice in the bunch. Highly recommend this for an elegant night out. All in we were at 150 per person (and that was with plenty of wine). The price was a bargain for the experience. GO!!!“

“Great food and service, but disappointed that they have been out of AC for two months. They need to tell their customers at the door before they are seated. Not right especially if customers have respiratory issues. Some in the restaurant that day were experiencing discomfort Stay away from the Rockville Location until they fix the AC“

“My wife and I recently had an amazing experience at Jônt. The whole thing, from the counter seating and loud music, to the phenomenal staff I 10/10 recommend. The food was unique and so fun to try. Every bite may not be a hit for everyone, but like i said it’s fun to try.“

“Food was very good and the entertainment was terrific. Great atmosphere“

“This place shines. We were a group of six tonight. What a joy to be treated so superbly. Our servers were attentive, informative and most pleasant. We were an energetic group but nothing this experienced group couldn't handle. Our drinks, wine, seafood, vegetables, meats and giant chocolate cake were delicious.We could have easily stayed for another hour solving many of the earths issues but, alas, it was closing time.We left happy, well-fed, and content.Thank you for a delightful experience.“

“Delicious!We visited on saturday lunch and were seated after few minutes of a wait.We ordered the wild mushroom flatbread, chicken benedict and the tuna salad.Everything was amazing!Flatbread had nice truffle aroma with ample mushroom toppings, tuna salad was fresh and cooked just right, but wow the biscuits on the benedict blew me away!!Service was cordial and straight to the point.Will return to try more menus“

“Yes! I love the concept. I love how it’s a hand made patty and the burger was cooked perfectly. In addition, you have an option to add items to your burger if you do the build your burger option. You can also choose their preselected choices which look really good. I chose to add sautéed onions, bacon, and Italian sausage. I will say although the Italian sausage was good, I wouldn’t add it again; it didn’t hurt the burger overall. You choose your seasoning (I chose basic), sauce (house bbq), lettuce and tomato. I also ordered the seasoned fries (garlic parmesan). I was curious so I asked for the spicy ranch. It was pretty good.“

“This is a very unassuming restaurant tucked away in an old shopping center. Doesn't look like much inside or out, but the food is fabulous. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, from appetizers to desserts. Wonderful wine list. The tables are well spaced for comfort and privacy the atmosphere is relaxed, and you never feel rushed. There is no kid's menu. Opened for dinner only.“

“I love this neighborhood gem or a bar/restaurant. Great vibes and elevated food. My only suggestion is to take the Triple H sandwich off the menu. There's no honey flavoring and for a person that loves Nashville Hot Chicken this was incredibly hot to the point of being nauseating. Unless there's some insane hot chicken eating contest this is not for regular human consumption.“

“A couple of girlfriends and I finally went to this woman owned restaurant that has been celebrated for years! And now I can see why! We had such a wonderful time, and the service was impeccable. The food was delicious, and portions were very generous given that it happened to be restaurant week. I would write more details, but those have faded in my memory. As Maya? Angelou said, to paraphrase her, you may not remember what someone said or did but you will always remember how someone made you feel. And after a find me at RIS, I absolutely agree.“

“Great food and service was excellent.“

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

“Everybody loves this place. You can just feel it....every table is having a party. I think it's because it's so simple - no menu, no crazy amount of choices. Just steak, fries and gravy and a little salad to keep us all honest. Delicious and fun.“

“The food is always good. I’ve been on a lamb burger kick lately. There are good options for brunch or dinner. There’s also events some evenings. I attended an open mic night for poetry a while back and it was great! So much talent in the space and encouraging of emerging and established artist alikeWheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is fairly accessible. There are double front doors and no button to open them so it may be difficult for electric chairs and larger chairs. The back event space can be cramped but I was able to be seated comfortably. Though I could see if being tricky trying to leave for a bathroom break once folks pack in. There are stairs to access the stage so that would be a big barrier for open mic nights“

“Food was awesome! Atmosphere was warm! Wait staff extremely attentive. We LOVE that it is farm to table, they have their own bee hives and grow their own herbs! Menu was unique and the octopus appetizer was SO crazy good!“

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

“Great service! Very accommodating staff“

“My second time here and it didn’t disappont! Wife loved the food—“this is effing delicious!” That woman HATES food, so I was taken aback by her excitement.We made a second stop here after 10 to check out the bakery. Left with a bunch of baked goods. Fantastic spot!“

“Nice setting, thought the food was ok. Oysters were decent though I did have a really sharp piece of shell that thank goodness I didn’t swallow. Not the best if you have a dairy intolerance. Ended up having the burger with no bun and no cheese, was originally told I couldn’t have the burger and had to choose something else. Wasn’t offered a lot of help on the intolerance front.“

“If you're looking for a great night out, the Donahue is the perfect place to go. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting, with just the right amount of buzz and energy. The food is delicious—fresh, flavorful, and made with care—and the drinks are top-notch. Whether you're looking for a fancy cocktail or just want to kick back with a beer, this place has everything you need for a great night out. Best of all, the service is attentive and friendly, making you feel right at home. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this fantastic dining and drinking experience!“

“Union Burger w/ fries and a house pickle. $15. Not bad for Arlington. Tastes great! Will be back for sure!“

“This was my first time really visiting dc, found this nice restaurant and i tried their chicken Marsala with mushrooms the sauce was a little to strong for me at first so I decided to eat it latter took out the fridge and into the microwave and it tasted much better than before. Also, I ordered their fig & goat cheese pizza I give it a 7/10 the pizza was delicious however there was too much cheese and the pizza dough was really thin but over then that it tasted good.“

“Can't believe I haven't reviewed Wingos yet. When my wife is out with friends, their hot wings and seasoned fries are my go-to. You can't go wrong with Wingos. I always order delivery, and it's always warm and arrives quickly. I would recommend this place over any other if you're craving fries in DC!“

“The food is always good and I love the atmosphere of the Silver Diner. We had to wait to pay for our bill. I don't like how the servers wait around for the tip. The tip suggestions are high. I do believe that if you go out to eat or get food delivered to your house you should definitely tip.“

“Great food and awesome service! We had a great time“
