I had some mild expectations when arriving at Barrel & Crow which were quickly met and exceeded. Our party of four enjoyed a truly delightful and delicious meal. From the moment we sat down, our server--Dan--delivered five-star service. He was genuinely friendly, attentive without hovering. His knowledge of the menu and thorough description of the dishes was also notable. Some were his favorites, so he really described them (all) with mucho gusto. It was like we were guests in his home. We basically ended up ordering literally everything he recommended and he was absolutely spot-on. We started with the fried green tomatoes and calamari. Our smorgasbord of entrées included the lamb bolognese (my favorite, though sadly not the one I ordered), a beautifully tender lamb shank, spiced shrimp and grits, and a deeply flavorful andouille and seafood gumbo. Each dish was thoughtful and well prepared, though the shrimp and grits were a bit savorier than I'm accustomed to. Dessert didn't disappoint either. We savored the chocolate torte and also their signature sweet beignets. They were the perfect ending to an already stellar meal.We left behind so many other tempting menu items and looking forward to our next visit.

The service was so so considering the size of the restaurant. There seemed to be plenty of servers but we had to flag them down to order, get coffee refills and get the check. We liked the food. They had an interesting shukshuka that 2 people got and finished every bit. They also got a side of potato "hash" but they were really just diced roasted potatoes. Not worth the $6 price but worked for soaking up the shukshuka gravy. We had one beet salad that was very nice. We ordered the beignets at the end and they were just fair. We would still go back to try other things!

There is plenty of seating inside the restaurant, you seat yourself after you order. When we arrived, the staff warmly greeted us and asked if we had any questions about the menu. My kids took some time deciding what they wanted, but we never felt rushed by the staff. I love that you can clearly see all of the food options.... think of the Cava setup with picking your base, sides and protein. I was able to lift my son up and let him point out what he wanted. We ordered alot of the options: Charred Chicken, Seared Wild Salmon, Crispy Tofu, Sheet Tray Carrots, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Charred Broccoli with Lemon and Tomatoes & Cucumbers. You can tell all of the food here is freshly made, well seasoned and high quality. My favorites were the Salmon, Crispy Tofu and Roasted Sweet Potatoes. Overall, my family and I had such a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the staff were so warm and welcoming. I will definitely be back in the future to try more menu items! :)

My son wanted a kids burger with no cheese and extra pickles, they had to remake it because it had cheese and then it came without pickles. We had to get attention to get some finally.

The Corby Kitchen is a pretty relaxed environment, inside the Marriott in Bethesda. We've had…read moredrinks here before, as well as lunch and dinner. Some of the servers are super great, and some are not so much. When a burger without certain ingredients was ordered, one waiter rudely said "then what do you want on the burger" however, the burger still had plenty of ingredients listed, that the person ordering didn't ask to be left off. It's difficult to order a plain burger with the only burger on the menu has bacon and cheese. The food is standard fare. Burgers, sandwiches, salads. The chef pays attention to allergens. I've tried the shrimp roll, the Caesar salad, and the turkey club. All of these can be made gluten free, although the menu doesn't denote it. Another in my party enjoyed the shrimp tacos and the burger. Being inside the Marriott, it is a little overpriced, but the food is good, just hit or miss with service. Great for a quick bite if you're staying in the Marriott.

We tried about five dishes during our visit with plenty of leftovers. The best tasting items we ordered were the mini burgers and the Brussels. Don't get me wrong their food was good, but nothing really stood out. The pizza threw me off a bit. It was very thin and the description was misleading. The chicken was grilled and the sauce ln the BBQ Jerk. I would go back for a few items but that's it. I do remember the food being better a few years ago. Not sure what changed. Service was great, our server was prompt and attentive.

I've had this review in DRAFT for a while, to allow time for rumination as to the final rating…read more.. On the one hand, there are some very positive aspects to Beth's, situated in downtown about a 10 min walk from the Bethesda Metro Station. Turn off Old Georgetown Road onto Fairmont Ave, and the first thing you encounter is a beautiful outdoor patio for al fresco dining and a large bar. The colors are vibrant with a focus on Southwestern earth tones; very reminiscent of a cafe you'd find in Sedona. It was still on the chilly side when my dinner group gathered, so we opted to sit indoors. There is a small waiting area in the foyer, and then a moderately sized bar, which leads into the main dining room. TBH, the design asthetic of the space is a bit of a "mishmash." Is it supposed to be European inspired? A continuation of the Southwestern motif? It's all a bit odd... We had about eight in the party, so staff pushed together two tables for us. We were greeted promptly and were told that the restaurant could accomodate individual checks, as ordering is done with handheld devices. My other observation about Beth's is, I'm not quite sure what "story," the place is trying to tell. The menu focuses on "Bites," which could be interpreted as "appetizers" and only has four "plates," aka "entrees." Our server mentioned while awaiting our orders that Beth's wants diners to share the "Bites" with a spotlight on their cocktail selections. So is Beth's trying to be a tapas bar then? I opted for the recommended Purple Rain which consists of Gin, lavender, lime; mostly because I LOVE a nice herbal Gin. The distinctive flavor of juniper berries from the gin was present, while the floral notes from the lavendar and citrus of the lime balanced out the drink. I was pleasantly surprised. Food started arriving after about 20 min, and visually the barley risotto was quite appealing. Instead of short or medium grain rice, Beth's uses the ancient cereal grain barley. It is slow cooked in stock to produce that slightly chewy, yet not undercooked mouth feel. USDA choice braised beef short ribs was stewed until fork tender, and the dish was finished off with Parmigiano Reggiano, and butter. For $24, the plate was a good portion size and very tasty. I dunno. I sampled some of the small plates such as the Brussel Sprouts, crunchy ravioli, crispy spring roll...and everything was fine. Not outstanding...not terrible...but just fine. The kitchen seems to be competent, so it would be interesting to see a menu where more main dishes were offered for diners who want a more substantial meal. The other thing I'll note is, due to the extremely high ceilings, the main dining space is a deafening echo chamber. I was hoarse by evening's end, since I was literally yelling over not just the background music, but the other nearby diners. Just keep this in mind that if you're seeking a quiet and cozy spot, either dine outdoors or come early. After some reflection, I settle on 4 stars. Service was good with water glasses constantly refilled, dirty dishes removed, to-go boxes offered, and the ability for separate billing. Price wise, for one alcoholic beverage, and one entree my tab with tax and tip came to a bit over $50. Automatic gratuity was added for the table since we had over 5 people. I appreciate the server informing us so we didn't "double tip."

We came into Beth's this past Sunday for a brunch before the snow storm. It was our first time here…read moreand here so here's a quick first impression based on our brunch. The atmosphere is fun and creative and probably ideal for a date or a group of adults. It might not be the greatest atmosphere for smaller kids or a family on a time budget. Inside is dimly lit with upscale decor including a paneled pop out faux cafe front, maybe French quarter-ish style, wall on one side. On the other is a mural. (I think it was a tree and mountains hidden behind some panels.) If I were to describe it, I would use the words, New Orleans meets modern art. They also have an outdoor space, where the faux cafe wall extends. This would be an ideal place to have an outdoor brunch any day, but this day of course. The menu does say new American, but I think that means that they have a little bit of everything plus steaks and burgers. To start the meal, they dropped an assortment of baked goods for the table, including a biscuit, a mini fruit tart and something that tasted like a blintz. It was carbohydrate heaven. We added a shared a baked brie appetizer that was excellent as well. For the main course we shared a Turkish breakfast plate, as well as some steak and eggs. I washed things down with a Bloody Mary from their brunch drink menu. My steak and eggs were cooked to perfection and the Turkish breakfast was very flavorful. The baked Brie was excellent for sharing and I really liked my bloody Mary. Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. A good part of that was the excellent service provided by the staff from start to finish. I think it's a terrific brunch spot and somewhere I would recommend for some fun bites and a couple of drinks.
