This is a good spot for a special occasion. The ambiance is fancier and reflects the bill with gratuity included. The sushi and miso soup was delicious and fresh, but the hibachi chicken at dine in and not the grill table fell short. The service was polite and accommodating.

Large selection of sushi. Large selection of fried rice. Good drinks. Has some bar seating with sports playing on the TVs

The food, service and ambiance is always on point. I love their salt and paper wings, their chicken lo mein and crispy beef. The food is consistently delicious.

I love Grace's for happy hour to grab some sushi and drinks. The Heart of Bowie roll is great! The bar area is usually crowded during happy hour especially when the weather is nice so get there early!

I'm always on the lookout for delicious, quality Chinese/Asian food and the places in my area are lacking. So when a friend recommended Grace's, I had zero doubt this would be a great spot as my friend is very much into good tasting food as I. As often as I travel in and around this area, I never knew this place existed and now I'm glad I found it. I ordered the shrimp spring rolls and the panyang curry with vegetables to go. My wait time was, about 10 minutes, not bad as I was totally expecting a longer wait time. The shrimp spring rolls came in half a dozen two inch sizes and they were super delicious. Nice and crunchy with actual shrimp...nice. The panyang curry with vegetables was really a surprise to me because I find it hard to find vegetable dishes where the vegetable are cooked until they are too soggy to enjoy however, the curry had a delicious aroma and a wonder taste and the veggies were nice a crunchy and well sauteed...I do mean vegetables...carrots, snow peas, broccoli, mushroom and string beans. Needless to say, I'll be back

We were blown away how beautiful Grace's restaurant is - luxurious and comfortable during our long lunch. White gauze curtains frame some of the booths. Terra Cotta soldier replicas offer interesting decorations. The restaurant length wine cases were impressive and exciting. One side of the restaurant had the Hibachi tables where they make the food in front of you. The bar is impressive with the couch seating and upscale atmosphere.The food had so many flavors that each bite was a delight and culinary adventure. You get very high quality and good portions.The chicken and corn and egg drop soup was the BEST I have ever had - so much white meat, corn, egg and with the won ton strips bowl that each person got was almost enough for lunch. I have never had a soup that had such a nice amount of those ingredients and it was not salty. Just delicious!I got Lunch Box A which came withGrilled Salmon, Fried Chicken, California Roll, Grilled Chicken Salad.The salmon had a Teriyaki sauce - very good. The fried chicken had a nice crunchy texture and cut into strips. The grilled chicken salad (no mayo) had nice grilled chicken over a generous mound of fresh cabbage and sauce. In the middle was rice. The California roll tasted nice and fresh.The Red Velvet Cheesecake was soooo good. I didn't think Red Velvet could get any better, but I was wrong - so moist and creamy and the creamed cheese frosting - just the height of decadence and a happy mouth! The Japanese crepe cake with a strawberry drizzle was great if you would like something lighter. It had several thin layers of cake. Creme Brulé had a wonderful crisp, caramelized top.Connie, our waitress, was so friendly, helpful, and took great care of us keeping our water glasses filled during our long lunch.Jennifer, the manager, was gracious, caring, and gave good recommendations inspiring our dessert selections.Thank you to Grace for creating such a beautiful restaurant with such delicious food and creating an environment conducive to meeting friends or family, a romantic date, a business meeting, or a special occasion.Parking: Shopping in a shopping center. Located next to the Panera and near a Shoppers Food Warehouse

I feel that the level of service and food quality do not justify the high prices especially compared to the old Grace's Fortune from the early 2000s. Walking in I noticed some of the old artifacts from their original location. Also you immediately notice the cigar smell as you enter. Apparently they are also a cigar lounge too. Maybe because it's an Asian fusion restaurant having an identity crisis and not a Chinese restaurant they do not bring you a complimentary pot of tea. Perusing the menu I noticed sushi, pad Thai and Chinese American dishes like General Tso, and French fries. What was really outrageous was the $12 charge for a veggie spring roll. I decided to play it safe with combo chow mein. Now chow mein is supposed to be noodles with a brown sauce made of oyster sauce. Not this place- you get rice and a really bland watery sauce that is transparent. My friend who is not big eater ordered the fries which were average and not fresh cut. Overall I am not impressed and would not return.
For those who remember Grace's flagship is Grace's Fortune. It was a mainstay for families and the community for many years. I miss that restaurant for so many reasons. The quality was superb, including seeing Grace herself and her beautiful smile welcoming everyone at the door. Her Sunday brunch had a waitlist and line out the door, often making Sakura next door a tempting close second if you were tight on time... And then came Grace's Mandarin (National Harbor) and Grace's Steak and Seafood (Vista Gardens). My visit at the Vista Gardens restaurant left me feeling perplexed. Perhaps her lack of physical presence speaks for how the business is now managed. While the service I received was acceptable, something felt missed here. Food quality was bit underwhelming, portion and presentation were lacking. An order of 2 soups, 1 appetizer, and 1 noodle dish came up $58.80 before taxes. Note the website says "automatic 18% gratuity for parties of 5 or more." I was a party of 2. Thankfully, our server was nice... Maybe it was an off night, and the team was stretched?

The atmosphere was nice as well as the staff. I ordered the Singapore Noodles and it was so good. I had a mango and strawberry Lemon Drop that taste great. For desert I had a Creme Brulee'.??

We gathered to toast my birthday and the fare was awesome! We got there before happy hour ended (by minutes) and ordered Crab Rangoon, chicken wings, edamame, calamari, and sushi. I'm not a fan of the fried fish, the texture is off and everyone left it on their plates. The drinks are made nicely and your glass will never be empty. Good place to watch a sporting event, smoke a cigar on the patio, sit at the sushi bar, or dine with that someone special. The decor is divine and you'll feel transported from the stripmall to a place of elegance!
My food came out hot and fresh ! But when it came to my company food she specifically asked for no veggies in her fried rice when they bring the plate out it’s had everything in it but what she asked TO SPECIFICALLY NOT BE IN THE RICE ! So they offered to cook the rice over that’s fine ! The problem came in when y’all offering to cook rice over but then the rest of the food will be cold by time the rice comes out ! The mangers then comes over and say she will get the rice remade and did we want her to reheat the chicken and shrimp?THATS BEYOND NASTY ! You’re going take some food from a table and take it back into a sterilized kitchen to heat the food up ! That’s a HUGE NO ! I have my food handlers that is not the proper PROTOCOL! Mind you this is already our second time returning the first time everything was over cooked and burnt !
