“The food is incredible. It’s authentic. I felt like Jamaica when I tore down this meal. The staff is super friendly, atmosphere is awesome. I love to go and try different dishes and I’m never disappointed shout out to the chef ! this place really reminds me of home. Great food great people don’t miss out. Go check it out.!“
“I really enjoyed the 1/2 pound combo with snow crab legs, shrimps, and crawfish it’s a really good amount for 2 people. The original cajun seasoning is good but when i asked for the hottest version it didn’t deliver truly think there must of been a mistake in the kitchen it was neither spicy or seasoned. Personally i would t order the lobster tail again it was sticking to the shell a lot and it was just a lot of work to eat compared to other foods. I have been here a couple times and I just wouldn’t say they have the best services the servers look uninterested in serving us at times and it takes a little bit to get your water if you come even 1 hour after opening which I get it could be busy at times but 15 minutes is kinda crazy.Parking: Plenty parking as it’s in a big town center“
“Gyuzo offers an exceptional Japanese dining experience, made perfect by Amanda's impeccable service. From her warm welcome to expert menu guidance, Amanda ensured a memorable evening. The dishes, including delectable sashimi, ramen, and Wagyu beef, showcased Gyuzo's culinary excellence. Amanda's attention to detail and seamless service left us eager to return.“
“Located in the Crown development. Easy parking in the public parking lot. We always share the Hanger Steak with Cauliflour Mash. It’s perfectly tender and delicious every time. This time we ordered dessert, a flourless chocolate waffle with iced cream and whipped cream. It’s really decadent and delicious. Another excellent meal. Prices are reasonable and the servers are friendly and skilled. The room is very nice too.“
“I often set meals of celebration on my schedule after completing a hard day at work, hot pot hero has been my choice for that meal very regularly. Amy, always addresses me by name when I visit and always make sure I have everything I need.She and the rest of the staff are awesome, the food is also exceptional portions are great and the overall experience is why I go.Parking: There is parking on the road, as well as parking around the corner in the building next to HPH.“
“Hands-down, the best Greek restaurant in Montgomery County! The owners are from Greece, so the food is authentic. Some interesting dishes. The vibe of the restaurant is next level, lots of Quality details. Service is always spectacular. One of my favorite restaurants in Onley. Great for date night or a family outing.“
“I've been coming here for years with my friends for birthdays and just hangout. I like the ambiance, the food, and the staff. Melissa is our go to waitress, absolutely love her patience, kindness, attention, and professionalism. It's really nice that they revise their menu a little to match the season!“
“I’ve made few memories here, multiples friends have made plenty of memories here, grand scape of slightly different environmentsIt’s a good time.Passion fruit cheesecake was amazingMuch respect to the placeDietary restrictions: All types available but not very heavily“
“We had a late lunch, so not busy. Food was excellent. Service was good, as was the atmosphere. I feel to judge it thoroughly and truly, I should go at peak hours. However, I would definitely go again, and I have already recommended it to a friend.“
“My wife and I arrived shortly after Saturday morning opening. A cheerful Giovanni promptly welcomed us. I informed him we would be a party of 5 or 6, the rest of our party would be there shortly. Giovanni welcomed us to wait at the bar, and handed us menus to get familiar with. He also offered to prepare any drinks we might be interested in and mentioned several. We do not drink, but hung out at the front. We mentioned we were celebrating my daughter's birthday. This was our first visit here. When the rest of our party arrived, Mark had our table ready. Giovanni brought us to the table. He took care of water and checking if we wanted any other beverages. After that, we ordered two starters. A dozen oysters on the half shell, and their smoked fish platter. Both were very well presented and very appetizing. We ordered our entrees sometime during the appetizers. Giovanni was continously smiling, joking around, and very happy in general. Our main course were served in a timely manner. Everyone ordered something different. Every dish was very well prepared and presented. The serving sizes were generous, from our point of view. We were full and satiated, but not stuffed. Everything was fresh looking and fresh tasking. The seasoning brought out the natural flavors of the proteins and sides. Everyone had a clean plate at the end. To our surprise, Giovanni brought over a desert with a candle in it. He led us in a happy birthday song. Obviously we were very happy with the entire experience and look forward to visiting again.“
“This place quickly became one of my favorites since moving to Maryland, and I would consider it a neighborhood gem. The service is great, the food is always fresh and delicious. Seating can be limited but they accommodate as quickly as possible in the bar area. Tables can be reserved ahead. I absolutely love their rum bun bread pudding as a dessert to go. Fresh oysters and their seafood bisque is an order for me every time.“
“This place is delicious and has wonderful service. I got the oxtail pho and my daughter got the fried rice with a strawberry nutella crepe for dessert. The broth on my pho was some of the best ever. The basil and bean sprouts were some of the freshest I have seen at a pho spot. This place is wonderful - you can get great pho, crepes, and teas all in one spot. The staff were super friendly.“

“Dear Diary - This is one of my favorite convenient hotpots in the area. Using their iPad to order your items, they often come to the table very quickly. They do have a serving robot mainly handling drinks/dessert orders which makes it pretty efficient as they can focus on other tasks. Love the efficiency and the various soup base flavors that are offered.“
“Vegan reviewer here! It was my first time to Yuan Fu Vegetarian and based on the reviews I was really excited to try them out. I went on a Friday night around 8 PM. From the outside it's nothing spectacular which is a great sign of authenticity. Right when you enter there's booths and tables with the counter at the back. They were about 1/4 occupied. I decided to seat myself in a booth and was greeted right away and handed a menu and was asked what I wanted to drink. I ended up deciding on the pecking duck which was the most recommended menu item and the vegetable chow foon since that dish is one of my favorites to order at any Asian restaurant. The both dishes came out about 10 minutes later. I had never had real pecking duck but wow this was delicious. The plum sauce really complimented the dish. Definitely order this dish. The chow foon was alright. Rice noodles really soak up any sauce you put on it so I was disappointed when there wasn't much flavor. The noodles were also pretty soft and I like them to have a bit of a bite. I asked for chili oil and soy sauce to jazz it up and it did the trick. I have a big appetite but had to ask for boxes. The service and food were great overall and I definitely plan on coming back and trying other dishes. One thing I will say is I asked for an itemized receipt and they had to handwrite it since they don't have a digital system. Both dishes came out to just under $35. Can't wait to come back!“
“The restaurant is pretty small and cozy. We ordered seafood and chicken soups. The seafood soup was good, but the chicken soup was ok. The noodles were overcooked, and the chicken pieces had a smell, so I didn't like it. I also ordered fried shrimp and scallion pancakes. Both the appetizers were good. Overall, it is a casual spot for soups and appetizers.“
“Don’t let the generic name/lack of curb prevent you from giving this place a try!Seen this place all the time when stopping at 7-Eleven next door but didn’t give it any mind until recently when I wanted some Chinese takeout. So so glad I ended up trying it because the food was legit amazing - which is great because the area historically has not had great Chinese options.Got the hunan & orange chicken along with hot & sour soup - couldn’t tell you a single bad thing about any. Main entree + lo mein + soup + egg roll for under $15 is amazing value for the portion size.This has 100% become our household’s go to.“
“My family and I absolutely love Cooper's Hawk! This specific location is where we have embraced going out as a family and getting to know the staff has been a wonderful experience. Jackie, the manager is absolutely amazing, very caring, and personable. We have completed many tasting as members, and really appreciate Mark and Taylor specifically, as they are knowledgeable and it is clear that they enjoy what they do. You will not be disappointed visiting Coopers Hawk!“
“This is the closest place you'll get the Szechuan food in Maryland. I came to Bob's Shanghai and ordered a lot of the Szechuan based menu. First order the beef tendon which had plenty of heat, personally there was a too much black pepper for me. Still was plenty tasty with a gelatinous texture. Secondly had some of their soup dumplings and it was great. Not as much soup as I would like, but there was plenty of flavor. For those who don't know what soup dumplings are, soup dumplings are essentially dumplings which have soup in them. They come out piping hot so you really want to watch out before you bite into these. We also ordered the pork belly stir fried in vegetable and Szechuan sauce. This was the highlight of the whole trip. The stir-fry consisted of plenty of garlic, bamboo shoots, green pepper, spring onion, and Szechuan peppers. The fatty pork belly and combination of vegetables really gave a nice touch. Lastly I ordered the Dan Dan noodles which were terrible. They were dry tasteless and not worth getting. Considering Szechuan is one of my favorite food styles, I usually go to Philly in order to get my Szechuan fixing. For now this place will do the job“
“I understand how it feels to have low expectations for food and then be pleasantly surprised by how good it is. I had a great experience with the pizza - the amount of cheese and sauce on it, along with the light and crunchy crust, must have been a real treat for my taste buds. Based on my recommendation, I would consider trying their pizza myself. And if you do end up trying their burgers or sandwiches in the future, please let me know how they are!“
“A good place for Sunday brunch or an early dinner. The food is excellent. I often meet friends there. The menu has many gluten free offerings. The atmosphere is quiet and casual. The service is good.Dietary restrictions: Many gluten free options. High quality. Delicious food“
“Chef Tony has done it again. An amazing place with the best seafood I’ve ever had. Tried the Trout, Salmon, and Cod and it was all delicious, especially the veggies on the side. The Bethesda’s Best Calamari is not just the best in Bethesda but the best I’ve ever had. Try this place, you won’t be disappointed“
“This place is the OG! Been going for over 18 years. One of my favorite place to eat in Olney, as it’s close to home, food is great, and prices are reasonable. Wish they were open a little later on weekends. 10pm would be better. Only complaint: Get rid of the Hunt’s ketchup, and switch to Heinz.“
“Well done! This restaurant has far exceeded what I thought possible on the corner of Watkins Mill and 355. Walking in you see the place is gorgeous! The tables and the bar are just beautiful, with dark wood and comfortable seats you can just slide into for a long dinner talking with friends. It was a warm night so we chose to sit in the patio. The outdoor seating is amazing, most could not have imagined such a chill setting along 355, Firebirds has pulled it off in style. The canopy has both fans and heaters to keep it comfortable, with something that looks like adjustable curtains hung overhead to let more sun in or to block out the heat or light rain. The wait staff worked well as a team last night, quickly getting our drinks and appetizers. The food was delicious! Firebirds Wood Fired Grill is an excellent addition to this area.“
“Best steak I have had in a LONG time. Of all the Ruth’s Chris locations I’ve been to, this is the best one I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Staff was outstanding, especially Franck - really appreciated his efforts and attention to detail. Franck: thanks for putting up with my kids - sorry about the tablecloth. And the wall. And the epic mess.“
“Had a taste for chicken tenders and this place did not disappoint! The young lady at the counter was very polite/helpful/friendly, the tenders looked different to me, but tasted amazing!! They were cooked to perfection (perfectly crispy)! The fries are out of this world! They are super crispy and seasoned wonderfully! I will definitely be back!“
“The first time I came here was to celebrate my birthday with a few co-worker girlfriends. The girls told them it was my birthday and they came out sang to me ,(I can't recall if this is where I got to wear a sombrero while they sang). We had a good time.... Since then I have visited a few more times as it is in walking distance for me. It's a great place if you want to sip on a margarita on the patio which has a sort of tiki bar vibe at night with the lights...or come watch a match while eating the tasty Mexican & El Salvadoran cuisines. I've tired and enjoyed the ceviche, fajitas, pupusas and margaritas several times. I did not care for the nachos but it was a to-go order and sometimes that can really make a difference when you get nachos. The staff has always been welcoming and friendly. I recommend stopping by!“
“I don't understand why this place isn't getting more attention on social media because it's much better than Hook and Reel. They have great service and their butter dipping sauce is delicious, especially if you add some hot sauce to it. Trust me, you'll thank me later! I definitely will be “
“4 stars for 4 reasons1. Everything we order was good! From main entrees, appetizers and desserts.2. Price is good for everything we ordered3. Quantity is good portion for the money4. The food came out relatively fast and warm!Minus 1 star because the stew we ordered was kinda salty! One other reason for the deduction is the customer service provided! Out of the 2 hours we were here our water was filled once, that’s it. Our server was kinda mute and didn’t provide the good service we would have wanted. Below average service for.“
“I went with my sister, who is vegetarian. We both loved the food. Service was great. We got the vegetarian pancake to share, she got soondobu jjigae and I got the seolleongtang. I've been looking for a restaurant with good seolleongtang and this place fits the bill. The soondobu was adequately spicy and delicious. One thing to note is the egg is $1.50 extra. The vegetarian pancake was crisp, not too oily, and along with the sauce it was delicious.Highly recommend this place. It's reasonably priced (paid maybe $35 for the meal) and the food was amazing. Plenty of vegetarian options to choose from.“
“It's a restaurant with a hometown feel. Every portion is super large, and you can take it away if you can't finish it!! The owner and Chef "阿雄師" are super hospitable. The hidden Taiwanese menu changes all the time, so next time, you can ask the owner if she has any new dishes.“
“Service and food were very good. Good for couples and groups. Less than 10 people they don’t take reservations. Diverse oyster menu, great happy hour prices (drinks, Oysters and other food). It’s a “loud” environment wherever you sit.“
“Stopped by Poke Bros during my lunch break to pick up a bowl to-go! I had gotten a 25% coupon in the mail so today seemed like the perfect day to use it. You can order off their regular menu with pre-made bowls, but I chose to build my own. I got a half-half salad mix/sushi rice, half-half salmon and marinated tuna, with pretty much all the free ingredients including carrots, edamame, corn, cucumber, tofu, and fried onion. The sauces I chose were spicy aioli and ponzu. Positives first: the bowl tasted GOOD. I mean flavor was on point. The salmon was fatty and melt in your mouth. It tasted fresh. I just haven't quite had salmon in a poke bowl like that before. I was surprised that the tofu had flavor as well, like it was marinated in a sweet soy. Overall no complaints with taste. Where it fell short for me was the portion. Hardly got any protein and on top of that, they chop the fish into super tiny pieces so you get even less. I ended up paying $12 for the tiny bowl (with the 25% coupon) but nonetheless was expecting more. Definitely was still feeling a little hungry afterwards. Overall, would give it a 3.5 (debated rounding up or down). Not sure that I'll be back as the value isn't quite there for me.“
“We happened to come across Yu Zhou after a trip to Sam's. This is clearly a family owned restaurant. On our visit I noticed the owner giving the staff iced teas from a local boba spot. Major kudos, more restaurants could learn from his leadership. Take care of your people and they'll take care of your customers. Staff was awesome and attentive, it's really an all hands on deck operation! Now the food.... Generous portions, American and authentic Chinese options and something for most everyone to enjoy. All in all a fantastic option for when you crave Chinese food!“
“Table setting was very nice and the food presentation was beautiful and very tasty. I loved the lamb chop with the creamy sauce and spices. I enjoyed the North Indian cuisine and so did my family. So thankful my son and his wife invited me to go on Thanksgiving Day!“
“Friendly and professional staff. Price is between $30 and $35 for the teppanyaki. There's some waiting on the weekends for dinner. Leo was our teppanyaki chef - he's funny and cooks the perfect steak and scallops! Will definitely return.“
“We came twice, one dining in, one take-out. We tried the specials (not on English menu): 什锦炒河粉three meat fried with veggies and wide rice noodles; 盐酥鸡便当fried popcorn chicken bento; 夜市炒花枝night market squid soup; 三文鱼炒饭salmon fried rice. The most recommended dish is the fried wide rice noodle, very good portion, good amount of protein and veggies. My second favorite goes to squid soup, comfort food, squid is fresh, good nutrition balance! It's good to have a restaurant offers family style food nearby.“
“I have been coming to this restaurant since it opened. I have always been very happy with their food. I really wanted a chicken chimichanga which I have had numerous times before at this restaurant. To my surprise this time they looked like Taquitos. I wanted the enclosed chimichanga with the tender chicken. This time it was not enclosed and of course the chicken was dry and crisp when it came out. I asked the waitress if it was the House special chimichangas that I ordered and she said yes. I told her I was accustomed to the enclosed chimichanga where the meat stays tender. She said that is only available in the seafood or fajita deluxe chimichanga which she would be happy to switch out for me. I didn't want seafood and I didn't want a steak and chicken combination, I was just really looking forward to a simple chicken chimichanga that wasn't dry. And of course I will never ever send anything back, I have seen way too many movies of what could be done if you send your food back and I don't want to chance it. I will go back again to this restaurant but I will never order the House Special Chimichanga's again. There is plenty of other good Mexican restaurants in Hagerstown that I can get the chimichanga that I want and not taquito looking chimichanga's. The taquitos that I was served tasted fine but I was just really looking forward to a simple chicken chimichanga so I left unsatisfied. The margarita did help get me through my disappointment. Best margaritas in Hagerstown.“
“This place is a hit or miss from time to time. I wonder if they had new management recently as the food quality was better than the last few times we went there and the wait staff seemed to be more attentive. Five of us had dinner there last Saturday and the food was quite good. I appreciate the manager and another helper took the food to our table while it was freshly cooked so they were not sitting under the heat lamp forever as our waitress was probably busy with something else. The bang bang shrimp appetizer was hot and good. The rainbow trout was hot and tasty. The fish and chip portion was large and the fries were crispy. The salmon dish was overcooked and dry. The medium rare sirloin was overcooked on one side but overall not too bad. We had stopped going there about 10 months ago because they changed some menu items (no more grilled pork chop) and the wait staff was generally inattentive and food was dry and stale when bought to our table for three previous visits. I also didn’t like that they poured water from glass back into the small water pitcher/contianer when they cleaned up the tables after the customers left. I am skeptical that they could be cleaned well by the dishwasher before the next use.“
“Best customer service. Honestly I was a bit sceptical about getting the wings but once it touched my tastebuds i never wanted it to leave. Honestly I would have this over any drug thats how good it is. If you dont get your wings from here you dont love yourself AT ALLLLL. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ‼️“
“After 1yr living in the area, we just discovered this place a few days ago. The same day we made blackened tilapia with Alexander sauce. As I was cooking, I could see the quality of the fish and the flavor of the fresh fish was very good as well.“
“Perfect Sunday Dim Sum brunch. They seat before 11am, and we’re filled by 11:30. This place is always a winner for my family. The chrysanthemum tea is a delight as well. There are so many people working, you’re quickly taken care of.Not pictured but equally delicious were the baked pork buns, sticky rice, honey walnut shrimp, shrimp cheung fun, crispy taro, pan fried noodles, garlic Choy sum, eggplant with shrimp.“
“pretty good dim sum place, went around 1 p.m. on a Monday. The place was quite empty, there was only my family and three other groups there. Since it was quite late there weren’t many dim sum choices left so if you want a variety of dim sum, go before noon. The shrimp dim sum dumpling was my favorite since it had actual shrimp in there and it tasted amazing. The roasted duck wasn’t bad but it was a bit too oily for me, feel like they should’ve roasted longer so the oil would be more dried up. Overall, the food was pretty good and the service was amazing, our teapot was never empty.“
“Delicious and fresh food. Cooked to order. Loved the friendly and great customer service. Cooking on real hardwood charcoal it gives an amazing flavor to the food. If you are ordering in I will recommend to call ahead and placed your order if you are in a hurry, since they are the only Greek restaurant that cooks with charcoal they are always very busy. The salmon dinner and salad are delicious, we highly recomm them. Also the peach Melba it's their specialty and out of this world. If you are a vegetarian you should try the Iman (stuff eggplant) stuffed grape leaves, zucchini, onion rings, hummus and their famous salads. The portions are huge. Choosing Athens Grill in Montgomery Village, MD. to have dinner with my friends was and excellent idea! We all love this place.“
