    Cinco De Mayo Festivities with my Love
    Nessa R.

    Cinco de Mayo 2024 was almost non-existent! My beau and I searched high and low for an authentic Tex-Mex spot but all the nearby places were PACKED. We were hungry, so good ole Chili's was the place to go. Ironically, the bar area was empty and there was no one waiting when we walked in. Score! We were happy in that moment. We sat down and noticed the bartender was BUSY. So busy her eyes didn't move from her little corner. She didn't smile with her eyes, look our direction, or even acknowledge us. Almost felt like I was Sam Wheat from Ghost for the 70 minutes we dined at the bar. I asked my significant other after 5 minutes if I should speak and try to get her attention but being compassionate he told me to wait a little. So we did. 5 minutes turned into 10, then 15, then 20. After 22 minutes our patience meter timed out. Ding, Ding, Ding.... sound the alarm. I saw a manager at the takeout counter and politely told her we'd been sitting without being acknowledged. I asked if anyone could help the one bartender. The manager quickly closed out what she was doing and made her way to bar. The manager apologized to the now 6 other upset customers; she proceeded to take orders and make our drinks. Have to admit I was impressed with the fact that she knew how to bartend. You would have thought with drinks being a big ticket markup that you'd want to make drinks quickly to have your customers order more. After 26 minutes we got our drinks. Yay! By this time we had ordered and watched the NBA playoffs while we waited. The original bartender was directly in front of us the entire time, still no eye contact, no hello, no sorry, nada. Twenty minutes from getting our drinks, the food came. My beau got his first, mine arrived 3 minutes after. Food was so good that we devoured all our fajitas. Got to give it to Chilis they make great fajitas. It's true. Finally we needed our check and luckily there was a male behind the bar helping. My beau asked for the check. As we were getting ready to leave we spoke to the Busy Bartender and said "you sure are busy." And just like that we got the confession. My beau and I sat there, listening like two therapists. She was protesting this evening so that her mangers would hire more people and not leave her alone. I'm supportive of a protest with a great cause. I personally love the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, most known for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech. I love a good protest but not when I'm the pawn in a fight I have nothing to do with. Hopefully they will get the staff together and work out their family dysfunction. Until we meet again...if we ever do. For those who come: Enter with Caution and a whole lot of patience.

    OK, hear me out. I was not a Chili's fan either, at least until recently. Yes, Chili's has a reputation. We all know. It's probably not the first place you jump up, grab the keys to and go to have date night or family dinner. And yes..it kind of doesn't matter what location that you go to (sort of) because sometimes when one franchise falls off, all of them get a bad rap. However....this one here in Waldorf!!? Please somebody sound the alarm. The food, the service all 10 out of 10. Now after never having ever gone to a Chili's maybe once since the early 90's, my husband and I went earlier this year, around the time the hot mozzarella sticks became popular, (because mozzarella sticks are my thing) and when you pair that with hot sauce..SIGN ME UP IMMEDIATELY!! I just had to have them; so that meant I had to go back to a Chili's to get them. That experience at this Waldorf location was great-food service all of it. The mozzarella sticks lived up to the hype. BUT, to make sure that just wasn't a one off, I came again just the other day...because I was craving those sticks. There was a much younger staff, it was a different time of day and I'm pleased to say that the same results were had. The food was great-fresh, hot and delicious. Their service was wonderful. The staff here were attentive without being overly attentive. They cleared tables at appropriate times, asked if we needed anything, apologized for cutting my husband off when he was trying to ask a question..I mean, just all out a great professional staff and again the food was great. We each got one of their speciality burgers and fries, I got mozzarella sticks of course, we shared the triple dipper and I got a cocktail. Everything was executed well and came out piping hot. Please. Just block out any negative thoughts you may have about this location or Chili's as a whole and give it a try...maybe you'll end up having a great experience! We certainly did and will certainly continue to patronize them.

    Quesadilla Explosion Salad

    I haven't been to a Chili's in years but when a friend said let's meet here because of the location, I said ok. We visited during the week for lunch and the place wasn't crowded so we were seated quickly. My friend ordered an appetizer, boneless wings and fries. I ordered the quesadilla explosion salad. Food came out pretty quick. My friend had no complaints about her boneless wings. My salad tasted as good as it looked. The cheese quesadilla topping was a little dry so I asked for extra sauce to dip it in. The 3 star rating was for the lack of service. Our server kept disappearing and forgetting things that we asked for. Not quite sure why because the place wasn't crowded.

    We decided to give this location a try. We were out shopping and we were hungry. Surprisingly the restaurant was very quiet when we arrive, there were a handful of customers and the hostess was on her phone. The hostess greeted us and sat us immediately. Our waiter came over, gave us drink suggestions and took our order immediately. Our waiter was unprofessional, he was young, but he was attentive and helpful. The food was good bar food. And the drinks were good bar drinks. The restaurant was clean and the flow of the work/workers ran smoothly. Give them a try if you're in the area.

    I wish I could find something nice to say about this place, but our experience there was terrible! We visited on a Friday night and the place was pretty empty, but we still waited at the entrance to be seated while the employee played on their phone and ignored us. When we were finally seated we were placed at a table that was really sticky, and we waited again as our waiter was no where to be found! Once he came around we placed our entire order in an effort to not be ignored again after getting drinks. Our water tasted like chlorine, the chips were half stale and the corn on the cob looked like it would be better suited as popcorn. I can confidently say I will not return to this location again.

    We came for a quick bite to eat and were not disappointed. Our server was attentive and the food was good. I also feel like the pricing and portions were worth it. The drinks were also strong so I definitely recommend going as they have happy hour all weekend. The buffalo chicken sandwich was good as was the appetizer sampler. We both got a margarita which was on the happy hour.

    Their specials and drinks are always 10/10. Happy Hour is a must and the atmosphere is always welcoming and refreshing.

    If you're looking for a reliable go-to spot in Waldorf, Boston's Restaurant & Sports Bar has been…read moreours for a while now--and it never disappoints. One of the biggest reasons we keep coming back? They still have a real happy hour--which feels like a rare find these days. It actually feels worth it, not overpriced like some of the other spots in Waldorf. Yall know the ones I'm talking about. We always grab a seat in the bar area. It's laid-back, easy, and just has that "stay a while" kind of energy. The staff really knows how to read the room--you're taken care of without ever feeling rushed, and everything just flows naturally. Now let's get into the food. The Mama Meata pizza is that girl. Packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and honestly hard to share. And I don't even look at the menu before ordering the Thai shrimp--they're a must. Sweet, slightly spicy, and somehow always cooked just right. It's giving little bites of heaven every time. Boston's just gets it right--good food, a chill atmosphere, and a consistency that keeps it in our regular rotation.

    I've been here a few times years ago and wife and I were in the area and needed to eat before…read moreheading to to Commanders game and decided to check it out. The service was good and the vibe of the place was good. What you would expect from a sports bar. What were did enjoy was there was another area with a door for the rowdier sports fan and an area for people looking to eat and enjoy their family or friends. I made the mistake of ordering their NY Style pizza. Thinking I was asking for thin sliced like they do in NY but they have a pizza w the same name that as Alfredo sauce instead of tomato based sauce. We didn't send it back as it wasn't bad. However, we didn't finish it all it took some getting used to ands were prefer the traditional sauce. We wouldn't order this again but not because it was bad just not preferable to us.
