[[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was busy[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], the food was delicious although the menu was limited, and the service was great.

About two blocks from the main cross-streets of Downtown Silver Spring. Worth the brief walk to come for dinner. It was a nice evening and we decided to sit outside. For starters, we got the New England Clam Chowder and an order of Chickpea Fries. New England Clam Chowder - definitely a chowder and not a soup (heavy cream base) with a nice flavor and a healthy amount of clam bits. Chickpea Fries - A nice portion of well prepared fries. Nice crunch on the outside, but moist on the inside. Well seasoned and not oily. Comes with ketchup and an avocado lime ranch, which was ok. It's a huge portion and we took most of it home to enjoy later. Good use of chickpeas. Branzino - This is a whole fish split in half. Pretty easy to remove the bones oneself. The skin was nice and crunchy with the meat inside moist. Well prepared. I'm not a huge fan of dill and I think the seasoning of dill is a bit overdone here. (I'm pretty sure it's dill. Whatever it is, it's too heavy for me and detracts from the meal.). The wild rice side dish is very good. Lobster Roll - Excellent. My partner ordered this and the only comment was that the large was very big and next time they likely would get the small one. Lots of delicious, cold lobster meat. The fries also were excellent. The service overall was very good. Our food was served at an appropriate rate (apps, then main, which seems not to be important at a lot of restaurants these days) and the water service was excellent. Recommend this restaurant. I probably would not get the Branzino again because of the heavy dill seasoning, but there are other items in the menu that look interesting. read more

Went to All Set Restaurant with some friends while visiting the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was so nice and was in a nice spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were greeted by a host who immediately sat us down The food items looked great and we got smash burgers and their fries. One person got some Old Bay chicken wings and they looked delicious. If you're in the area, come for their great options. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Every year on Mother's Day, AllSet becomes our family's go-to spot for a joyful celebration, accommodating our large group of 14 to 16 people with ease.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is always festive, and we indulge in an amazing array of drinks, with the Perfect Storm being my personal favorite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The appetizers, especially the fried oysters and mussels, disappear in seconds, setting the stage for the delicious main courses that include their Mother's Day specials like fried chicken, crabcakes, salmon, and fish and chips. By request, they even brought back the fried Oreos, which were absolutely delicious Each visit leaves us happy and satisfied, making AlISet a cherished tradition where we create unforgettable memories together. read more

Let me start by saying the place is across from LA Fitness ,so you can park right next to it or after 5pm park in the back is the parking for the restaurant .The services was amazing and the Foods & Drinks was great . the Manager is amazing i would reconinde this place . read more

Overpriced food, quality OK. Don't get the hope about this place. My clam chowder soup came in a very small cup, there were no clams just potatoes and crackers. I have ordered the Cobb lobster salad. It was a Cezar salad with sliced boiled egg and lobster. The blue cheese and lobster did not make any sense. You don't serve cheese with seafood. Service terrible, one of my co-workers ordered another lemonade that did not come until the meal was over. The server tried to sign a Christmas song and tipped herself 22% without asking. Not OK and not recommending this place. read more

I used to come here all the time, but it has been a while! I came with a group of friends on a Saturday early afternoon (12:30), and we were one of the only couple of parties inside...I will say, it got busier when we were leaving around 2:30 though. I got the Seafood Pasta which was played beautifully. The flavor was pretty good and the serving size was great - had plenty left over for lunch. I also ordered the Basil Gin Ricky, which I don't think is on the menu anymore but is still a favorite. Another friend got more of a seasonal drink that looked delicious, I think the Wicked Good Morning. I would like to come back soon for HH because that used to be my favorite! One of my friends got the Steak & Eggs but didn't know there would be pieces of meat (brisket?) in the eggs. read more

MR Bake's Preview Party at All Set The world famous, Kareem "Mr. Bake" Queeman hosted a viewing party with his friends at All Set. We, as friends and fans were thrilled to be invited to watch an episode of the Halloween Bakeshop on the Flavor Network, where he is a judge, They had some delicious items on the menu for purchase, the item I wanted to try (jerk salmon) was unfortunately sold out. They had great drinks that were sparkling, and raised the excitement while we waited to watch the preview. To celebrate they had a few desserts available to everyone in attendance, gourmet full-size cookies, mini cupcakes and banana pudding. It won't be a party without desserts. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was fun watching the baking competition.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I think the best part of the evening was when Kareem gave inspiration thoughts about his journey and encouragement for those on similar paths. read more

Thank you read more

This is a new staple in my rotation! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Food, service, and ambiance are up great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came here a few years ago and it was a pleasant yet unmemorable experience. However, I went a couple of times recently and have had a positive experience each time. During the last visit, we tried the oysters and loaded fries from the happy hour menu and the smash burger and the fish and chips from the regular menu. During the most recent visit, we ordered the oysters again, jerk skewers, slow smoked honey sriracha wings, Caesar salad, and regular fries all from the happy hour menu! The burger and fish and chips were decent flavor wise but satisfied hunger! The oysters, loaded fries, and slow smoked honey sriracha wings are outstanding!!! They give you a great amount of the toping for the loaded fries. The oysters are $1 each for happy hour and great quality meaty oysters. Def recommend All Set for happy hour!! Drinks are great and flowing. The Boston tea party, hi bish, and pretty in pink were all delicious and strong!! Service is prompt. They sometimes get busy and might have to track down any server for service but they are all helpful! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is beautifully decorated and clean and restrooms are maintained well![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

All Set is a bit of a throwback in all the best ways. Met a friend here because we were dying for oysters and discovered the Sunday happy hour. We sat at the bar, had amazing service, and split a dozen oysters. I usually eat my oysters plain with lemon, but All Set serves them with four little squeeze bottles of horseradish, mignonette, hot sauce, and cocktail sauce. Very clever. Wines by the glass were decent, and we also had the sliders, which were amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Definitely going back. This is not a trendy place. It's not that pretty. But I loved it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I have walked past this restaurant on the way to The Fillmore from the Spring-Cameron parking garage countless times, but decided this past Sunday would be the day I stop. I ended up being late for my reservation and the hostess was warm and accommodating over the phone. My waiter was attentive without being overbearing, and I had pleasant interactions with the rest of the waitstaff. They have many happy hour drinks and food options to choose from in a wide range of prices. I appreciated the balance of seafood and non seafood options across both the happy hour and dinner menu. I had plans afterwards so I didn't get to stay as long as I wanted, but I had an excellent time and will be back again to try all the food/drinks I didn't get to try. read more

Whether you're looking for a mix-and-mingle work event, a night out with friends or family, or even a low-key date, All Set delivers.

A special shoutout to Genea, who made our experience truly memorable! If you visit soon, you can take advantage of Restaurant Week, the all-day happy hour in the bar area, or the regular everyday menu--all of which offer fantastic options. And speaking of the menu, the crab cake and smoked wings are absolute must-tries! The food is delicious, the prices are fair, and the atmosphere is a whole vibe.

I was here for a birthday Happy Hour. The decor is cool and kind of intimate with the low dark lights. The place is not big at all and tend to get crowded due to the happy hour being 5pm-close. -The wings were not good at all. They were so huge and bland but was salty on the top (If that makes sense) lol... -The calamari were good. - I ordered oysters but never received it, but my brother said his oysters were good. - kale salad was delicious. I opt out of the kale and replaced it with arugula (The bomb) - Snapper and rice were delicious I always expect a great tasting margarita during happy hour and never get it lol. Taste liked juice. I would go back to try it again. The 3 star was because it was okay... read more

We've been coming to All Set for years and it always hits! Although the BBQ was good, I'm glad to see the menu has gone back more to the original one (more of a seafood focus). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside nautical atmosphere and decor are great, we also love sitting outside (they have TVs out there usually playing sports if that's what you like!).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our top hits include the lobster cobb, old bay wings (literally the crunchiest wings you'll ever have!), the chick pea fries, lobster roll, crab cakes, and fried shrimp. Overall if you're looking for a classy and fun dinner spot with great food and drinks would absolutely recommend! read more

Celebrating our daughter's graduation we chose this restaurant which was perfect from ambience to the fantastic appetizers and wonderful entrees. The menu selections and variety would suit any pallet. The many beverage choices to complement your meal as well. The servers lead by Jazmin, were so helpful to inquire of food allergies and graciously provided accordingly. The food presentation was beautiful and all meals were served hot. To say the least, our dining experience was so good and would highly recommend this restaurant for any date night to group gathering. They won't disappoint. read more

I visited All Set with a large group on a Saturday night and I am pleased to report that we all enjoyed the visit a lot. We were seated a few minutes before happy hour ended (normally daily from 3-6, all night Monday) and ordered a few drinks. The happy hour menu says its only for the bar area, but our waiter invited us to order from it anyway. This was a pleasant surprise and a good way to kickoff the meal. I tried the Basil Gin Rickey ($9) and Whiskey Sour ($8) and both were very good. For appetizers, we had the 1/2 lb Fried Shrimp ($19, 8 pieces), Sriracha Cheddar Biscuits ($14, four biscuits), and Chickpea Fries ($14, 9 large fries). All of the apps were delicious. The shrimp were large, had no shells on them, had a very nice, crispy fry, and a little seasoning so the dipping sauce and lemon wasn't necessary. The biscuits were large and had a bit of a spicy kick. We liked the berry sauce that came with them. I was wary of the chickpea fries but they were also great -- crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and came with two dipping sauces. The fries were a bit similar to the biscuits in that they were both kind of bready, so I probably wouldn't get them together again, but they were both worthwhile. Entrees were also a hit. I tried the Lobster Roll ($34 w/ fries) and Texas Brisket ($34, 1/2 lb served with carrots and mashed potatoes). The lobster roll was a good size and had noticeable chunks of claw meat (the best) along with crispy, lightly seasoned fries. The brisket was also tasty, although a bit overshadowed by the sauce, carrots, and potatoes. I would have preferred the brisket to stand on its own a bit more to really appreciate it. The "Bleu Cheese Mashed Potatoes" didn't particularly taste like blue cheese to me, which was just fine as someone who hates it. Others at the table got entrees like the Fish and Chips ($25) and Branzino ($41, whole fish) which also got high marks. Our waiter was good and very friendly. The restaurant was lively but not packed. It was a little noisy and nearly impossible to talk down the length of the table, which was ok but not ideal. The happy hour menu is solid with both food and drink at good prices. But the regular drink menu is too expensive, especially the beer and cocktails. The beer menu is pretty lame with only two local beers (both Atlas) and charging $8 for Corona or $9.5 for Atlas is robbery. Cocktails are also too high at $15. Wine is $12-$13 a glass and I would like to see cocktails at that price point. read more

The service is amazing. I was so well taken care of, I just loved my experience! I have pretty bad social anxiety and I'd had a rough day. Just wanted to grab a delicious bite and read my book and decompress. I ordered the crab cake entree, with their ipa, and had a coffee, salted caramel gelato, and apple cake for dessert. The location is prime if you're in Downtown Silver Spring. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They made accommodations for me. It was great. Can't wait to go back next time I'm home! read more

If you find yourself craving for good food and minimal human interaction, may I suggest all set on New Year's Eve? It's the perfect spot if you're into the exclusive empty restaurant vibe. I must say our waiter was exceptional possibly because we were his only patrons for most of the night. If friendliness was a dish she'd be the star of the menu. Now speaking of the menu, we were ready for some Branzino as advertised only to be served rockfish instead. It's like showing up for a date with Chris Hemsworth and getting his lesser-known cousin. His brother have been good as well. But hey, at least it wasn't a catfish, lol. The saving grace of the evening? The fries oh the fries, crispy, golden, and perfect and a little thick. Would I go back? Maybe next, time I'll check if the New Year's Eve menu is real or just a fish tale. read more

I visited All Set restaurant on a solo lunch date and later on a dinner date. The service was good. The waitress were very attentive and helpful with my order. The food was good, not amazing, but decent (both times). [[HIGHLIGHT]]What stood out to me the most was the ambiance. I really like the nautical, sailing theme.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also played old school 90s R&B music that made me enjoy the vibes even more.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There was plenty of parking at the parking garage nearby. It's in downtown Silver Spring, but not near the hustle of downtown, if that makes sense. Food: 8/10, Service: 10/10, Ambiance: 10/10. Want more authentic opinions?

I have been coming to All Set for some time and it is always a great time. My most recent Saturday evening visit exceeded every expectation and made for an awesome night. Not only were the drinks and food great, Oz provided us with exceptional service. Even with a large party and an event going on, he was very attentive and made sure to check on us. I enjoyed everything I had with my favorites being the calamari, cornbread and the salted caramel gelato. I always enjoy a Pretty in Pink but the Coming in Hot might be a new favorite.

We've been to all set before and decided to come back for a date night after several friends on Facebook reminded us that it could be a fun date night restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Atmosphere is wonderful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The location is easy. service @ front of house was fine. Food was delicious. Unfortunately our server sucked. She had us waiting 20 minutes to take our orders after taking our initial drink orders as we watched her on the patio spending 20 minutes talking to some friends. She was incredibly slow with taking our orders all night. While she would stop by occasionally, it was clear that other team members were encouraging her to pay attention to her customers versus having fun with her friends. My husband actually had to walk over to her to get her to check us out so we could pay and leave. This was as the other staff was clearly wrapping up for the night. She then caught an attitude when she got a less than stellar tip. Must be a generational difference that a tip is earned not an entitlement.‍ read more

Came on a trip and wanted a good crab cake. Saw this place and called to place and order. I was told to order online.

Delicious and great service again! Came here in a whim with some family a couple years back and when I needed to pick a brunch spot to see a friend, this place immediately came to mind. They did not disappoint! Our server was so nice and personable. Food was brought out quickly and water was refilled regularly. We even stayed past paying the check because it wasn't busy and they kept refilling our water! (Y'all know some places act like you're not there once your check is paid). And of course the place is so cute! Themed with lots of seating options, both inside and outside. On to the food! Sriracha biscuits: 4/5. Still a shock every time! You think "sriracha and berries? What?" But it works! I don't even like sriracha, but the berries offset the spice very well. And the biscuits are of course soft and fluffy. Texas brisket hash: 4.2/5. You get a lot of food with this. I took home leftovers and had the rest for breakfast the next day. The brisket was tender, could've had a bit more flavor, but still solid. They cooked my eggs exactly as I asked for them. Come here for a great time! They've yet to disappoint me :) read more

Love their all day happy hour on Mondays. Enjoy the shrimp cocktail, calamari, and their ceaser. Some cocktails are $7, which is a great HH deal in my opinion. The happy hour starts at 3Pm so when I first arrived around 3 it was quite empty but the ambiance is casual and the space gets a little more crowded with time, overall a solid spot for cheap/ reasonable happy hour food and drinks in downtown silver spring read more

Good and service are very good quality. I enjoyed the selection as seafood is a rare treat for me. Service did seem a little slow and slightly aloof. Not a problem when you are focused on your party, but can be a little frustrating when you want a water refill. Happy to support a unique small business with a polished ambiance. Price tag is a bit steep to visit regularly. Good special occasion & seafood restaurant. read more

I had high hopes for the All Set restaurant. It is in a great location and great place to grab food and drinks before seeing a show at the Fillmore. Which is what we did a few nights ago. This restaurant has a nice bar and plenty of seating. It also has outdoor seating where we sat. It was not a big outdoor area but they also had heat lamps which was a plus for colder months. My friends and I had some of the happy hour drinks which came in cute smaller size glasses. We thought the drinks were good. My friends had the chickpea fries which they said were good and the caesar salad. The restaurant was nice enough to split that into two bowls for them, and they also shared the crab mac and cheese. Which they said was not hot or warm really. I had the cornbread to start which was very good and the grilled chicken sandwich which was not that tasty sorry to say. I would come back here for the drinks but the food not so much. Also, our waiter was nice but service was kinda slow and we were kinda in a rush as we were going to see a show after. But it all worked out in the end. read more
