OMG!!! Jennifer is the most attentive and pleasurable server in the DMV!!! Both the food and service were great. The bread Pudding is the star menu item!!!! A must have!!!! read more

Worst food ever. Seems as if it's precooked and quick fired. I got the recommended salmon, which came over cooked, over salted and nothing to it. Ate less than half as I couldn't see eating something I wasn't enjoying. Worse yet, my husband ordered the ribs, which can in an unappetizing meat pile and were described as mushy. He ate one. We asked for the check, told the waitress how bad the food was and left. The waitress apologized but didn't see concerned. If you're used to better quality food, I'd avoid this place at all costs! read more

Our visit to Copper Canyon Grill on Valentines Day 2018 was an amazing experience. Our waiter Nick delivered superior customer service, and on such a busy night. He ensured our drinks remained full, food was delivered in a timely manner and pipping hot. My family and I have dined at this restaurant many times, this is the first time I've been compiled to post a review. My Children order the burgers from the kids menu, and commented their food was "amazing". My bf ordered the fried and crab cakes, very tasty. For the first time I order the vegan pasta dish (recommendation of Nick), and it to was delicious. read more

Alex seated us and since it was our first time dining she recommended the salmon entree and it was so delicious. Katy was our server and she was super attentive but not overwhelming. Definitely coming back soon! read more

If there was an option for ZERO STARS I would have used it. Now that said, I was meeting friends for a movie on Sunday night and they had informed me that they would be running late. I was hungry and wanted to grab something, maybe even a drink too. I made my way to Copper Canyon and thought it would be fine. I entered and was not welcomed by the host that was clearly engrossed in other activites not related to helping customers, but isn't that the job of a host? So I decided to seat myself at the bar, noticing that the gentleman behind the bar was in the midst of cleaning so I waited patiently. Five minutes passed, no acknowledgement of any sort, there were only five other parties at the bar. A female server/bartender came to the bar with some food for a party and I attempted to gain her attention and was rebuffed. The last straw was the male bartender pouring a beer from the tap that I was seated DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF, I proceeded to put my jacket on and walk out. The hostess wished me a good night....uhhh I just walked in ten minutes ago unless I was there just to soak up the ambience do you think I had been helped? NO! read more

Good solid comfort food at reasonable prices. I do not understand the very dark atmosphere. They have a large central bar, and a little live entertainment. They try to make it a romantic atmosphere, but it is not that type of restaurant. I had their rotisserie chicken (their specialty) with some of their St. Louis ribs. It was very tasty. I do not know how to describe this, but I felt like they tried to hard. They are a little heavy on the seasoning. I had their tortilla soup for appetizer, and that was the most disappointing part of the meal--definitely skip this. I had their chocolate brownie dessert. It was excellent but enough for 4 people. I enjoyed my meal here, but it did not live up to my expectations. read more

Was told a 15-20 wait time which isn't bad, ended up taking about 45 min for a table. Food was not very good either. Fries were cold and hard, French dip was meh. Girlfriend liked her spinach dip but the salad wasn't anything amazing. Corn bread was cold and hard. Probably wouldn't eat here again with so many other choices around. The waiter was exceptional though. He was busy but very quick and polite. No card holder for the check. Weird for a restaurant like that to just hand us a paper bill. read more

Only went there one time but man was it good! I got the steak that came with those amazing mashed potatoes. I got full but I just wanted to keep eating. I left with a food baby. My friend had the bbq ribs ( If I remember correctly, was kind of a long time ago), which also looked delicious. Kind of expensive but would definitely go back again. read more

This has been one of my favorite places to dine for many years. It has great bbq ribs, luscious shrimp and grits, great vegetables and side dishes and desserts, healthy portions, and excellent and courteous service and wait staff. HOWEVER -- while dining there on the evening of Friday February 1, 2020, I was "unexpectedly" joined by a very unwelcomed guest during my meal -- a large precocious cockroach! It crawled down the pepper grinder and headed straight for my plate of shrimp and grits! I tried to smash it with my water glass but it got away. And so did I! Diners beware -- FYI -- just FYI -- I grieve this loss but I do not plan to return. I will miss it. read more

This was the worst experience I've ever had. The hostesses was unsure of whether the patio was open or not on a beautiful day. When we got seated at a window table. Our first server was decent, recommended a few items. We ordered our drinks and an appetizer the spinach dip. Our appetizer showed up 10 minutes later with no drinks yet. Which was fine thinking they would show up seconds later. They didn't. We waited an additional 10 minutes for our drinks. The spinach dip... the chips were like eating Tostitos out of a bag from a grocery store and paired with the can salsa underneath the bag of the chips at the store. Oh plus watery sour cream. We planned on ordering entrees but then never saw our server. Another server who I've never seen came up 10 minutes later and asked if we were ready to order. Didn't introduce herself or communicate maybe a shift change and she would be taking care of us.... Changed our mind on eating there and plus returning ... Not to mention the raspberry mule I ordered was watered down and had mold on the raspberries. I had to ask another server walking by to request for the check...will not return read more

I have eaten here a few times after business meetings in Silver Spring. It is a great place to dine with clients. Not too loud or obnoxious. In the warmer months they have an outdoor seating area which is open yet intimate. Obviously, the steaks are great. One dish I really enjoyed is their wedge salad. It is perfect size for lunch. It keeps you from having the post meal food coma. Parking is street or in the garage. read more

This restaurant has amazing food. Everything tasted fresh, was well prepared, and was prepared in a timely manner.

Oh the humanity!!!! My favorite salad in the whole world is no more! It's been thoughtlessly replaced with a cheap imitation of something that was so beautiful and simply delicious! I use to come here fairly often for the Sesame Seared Ahi Tuna Salad. Words cannot begin to describe the sheer perfection of this salad, or what this salad use to be. In the words of Sophia Petrillo: Picture this...Fresh field greens topped with cherry tomatoes, goat cheese, carrots, spiced pecans, cornbread croutons and a very generous portion of Ahi Tuna all tossed with a delectable adobe dressing. Whoever came up with this concoction was exceptionally talented. It also use to cost $16.00. I understand inflation and the cost of food and rent is always going up but what they are charging for this new "Sesame Seared Ahi Tuna Salad " is madness! The new salad is suppose to have fresh field greens. It didn't, it was all romaine lettuce. It's also suppose to have mango, avocado, diced red peppers, red onions,and wonton strips tossed in a honey sesame vinaigrette.Garnished with pickled ginger and wasabi. The meager amount of avocado and mango in this salad is just sad. I think the portion of Ahi Tuna is about half of what the original salad use to have on it. This new salad has cheaper ingredients and significantly smaller portions and they are charging $21.00! It's truly outrageous and very disappointing. That being said, it's really too bad because the service is impeccable here and I love the location and atmosphere. Sadly I have no reason to return or recommend this place. It's heartbreaking. read more

Today was my first visit to Copper Cayon and boy was it good! First of, the service was amazing. My waiter was very attentive, always checking and making sure me and bae was good! Second, the spinach and artichoke dip was so delicious. I'm very picky about my spinach and artichoke dip, however I was NOT disappointed. I will admit I was a bit thrown off by the white table cloths (Bc it's not really "fine dining") but I like the concept of having that fine dining "experience" and service without the fine dining super expensive prices. I will definitely be back again! read more

I came here once and had a great waiter that was nice and made my first experience here great, even though im not a fan of cookout food! My fiancé dragged me back here again. The second time around, it was the worst service we ever had in our lives. We felt as though we was being looked down on and judged. We ordered two alcoholic drinks and a ENTREE for our appetizer because the apps suck there. Damn waiter thought we was just going to share one meal and thats it! So she actually stopped being our waiter and sent someone else over (rude). The original waiter was not even busy being that we got there at 11am and she was just awkwardly walking around and staring at us. I saw her talking to others and the eyes just looking at us. Just because we are young and black doesn't mean we don't have money. We are professional w/ money. Once the original waiter who abandoned us realized we wasn't cheap asses, she decided to come around and try to redeem herself with small talk. Cold shoulder from us! Anyway, we was completely judged, they lucky my drunk ass ain't go ape shit in there. We spent $250 there in one week and they lost a really good customer ;( read more

Service- VERY rushed. We ordered a bottle of wine and an app and hadn't even finished our app by the time the food came. Special steak entree not as described- very heavy. Waitstaff hovered and we couldn't relax. It was our anniversary and we wanted to enjoy it. Too much money for being pushed out with mediocre food. Would not recommend!!!! read more

I went to Copper Canyon tonight with a date... this place suffers from an identity crisis, general weirdness, and industrial-feeling food. Service: They use a "team service" setup. Or something like that. While that might sound nice, it leads to alternately being ignored and being oppressed by constant nagging. The server who helped us most of the time seemed nice enough but he explained a lot of things in excruciating details, from their service philosophy to standard/expected/listed menu items. He also used the words "slathered" and "drizzled" in the same sentence and I had to hold back laughter. I was only able to avoid laughter because of the disconcerting amount of eye contact from the waiter. The service was just weird. Atmosphere: They are trying way too hard: this place is like a collision between Chain Restaurant America and something else more pleasant than that. The two of us were seated at a HUGE cocktail-table-thing for dinner (awkward). It seems like the low light would have been romantic, but it felt more like someone had turned the lights off in a tastefully decorated fast food joint. The decent piano music was a good volume for the bar, but horrible for chatting over dinner- we were frustrated by having to yell at each other. The atmosphere suffers from a major identity crisis. Food: I got the filet mignon. I like filet, and this was a good-quality cut of meat. I asked for medium, but it was easily medium-well. Not the end of the world though. There were at least two different sauces on the filet; one would have been plenty, and the cabernet part of it was syrupy. The mashed potatoes and carrots were fine/unremarkable. I could taste their wood-fired-whatever in my filet, which was horrible. (That flavor was fine in my date's rib-eye, though.) Filet mignon is a classic dish: if you're going to serve it, do it right. Dessert: Dessert is not food. It is separate from and co-equal with all other food. One of my favorite dessert is bread pudding. This was not my favorite. Chief complaints: no raisins (!!!), no bourbon/brandy/Jameson/etc. in the sauce (WTF???), and it was big enough for at least 2-3 people. The lack of liquor is inexcusable. Overall: This place is weird. They're trying too hard. Chain Restaurant America + Nice Restaurant + Weirdness = Copper Canyon Grill. read more

We had dinner here and our server was Mikaela N and she was really terrific and we really enjoyed the service and the food was really great!! read more

This restaurant was a big disappointment. I went with a group for a celebration Because the location was convenient. Service was abysmal. It was 40 minutes before our orders were taken. Part of our group was A few minutes late and they threatened to give away their table. The quality of the food was so so. The ribs were tender but the barbecue sauce was only fair. Crabcakes look great from the outside but were all Bready inside. People liked the salmon entrée. Overall the High Point was the salmon and some fun drinks. However this could not make up for the terrible service and Fair food at rather high prices. read more

Went here for lunch yesterday with a co-worker to use a groupon. Not only was the service SLOOOOOOOOOOW but we were entertaining ourselves by taking note on how bad it was overall. We did note that the 2 larger office parties that were on our side of the restaurant were constantly doted on and the manager (we assumed) stopped to check on them and other nearby tables several times....sadly he missed ours. So what exactly happened.... We sat for at least 10 minutes before anyone came to take our drink order. Then it took a decent 5 minutes for a coke and a water to get delivered. During our wait the manager walked to the other 2 seater tables and checked in, but passed us by. Our appetizer got deliver, the crab dip that was sadly lacking crab but had an intense amount of cream cheese. The server who delivered it forgot our plates, said she'd be right back with them and then never actually brought them. So I had a table spoon sized dolup of cream cheese...errr...crab dip in front of me for the next 15 minutes. No, with the cloth napkins provided I could not wipe it up myself, then I'd have no napkin. During that time, all of the wait staff passed by, looked at the dolup, and kept going. None brought plates, none offered to wipe it up. Oooohhhh and there goes the manager again...he took note and kept on walking. When the food got delivered I had to ask the server, who had seen the dolup of crab cheese no less then 3 times while he was ignoring us for the office party to please bring something so I can retain my napkin and clean up the dolup. So he brought us our appetizer plates, thanks yes now that I have my actual meal, that is very helpful. Hey the manager is comi....nope no he's not stopping here. I ordered the Seared tuna salad, why would you serve hot seared tuna on a cold plate, ohhhhhhhh because the tuna is not hot anymore it's cold! And this wasn't a room temp plate, this plate was out of the freezer COLD. So were the fries and burger on my co-workers lunch platter. Really..... the "team" waitstaff had been ignoring us for so long, our food had sat out and gotten cold. I'll tell the mana....oh no he's not stopping to check on our meal. Hmmm do we smell? At some point the waiter came along and snatched the groupon off the table so he could at least subtract that from our bill ahead of time, ok points for efficiency there. But then....he dropped off the wrong bill...like really wrong. 2 iced teas, 1 house salad and 1 cesaer salad. WTF? It took another 10 minutes to get his attention to swap the bill. And then I watched him go back to 3 other tables to find ours. Oy. I'll let the manager know he's coming this .... oh nope skipped us again. Overall the whole experience was so bad, it was damn near entertaining. And Mr. Manager, or assistant manager or owners kid....whoever you were checking on the other 6 tables in the back dining area yea we noticed you never stopped or we would have suggested maybe assigning a specific few waiters to the office party and some more for your drop in diners. It'll be a good long time before I recommend or go back to this disaster. read more

So, I've heard about this place for a while but never have a chance to dine here until tonight. I ordered a medium-well burger, and about 3-5 minutes later, my food arrived. The food was adequate, but the service and ambiance were very nice. read more

I absolutely LOVE this place. The bacon Mac and cheese is the bomb and they will definitely get my business moving forward.

So I found the proverbial strand of blond hair in my fiesta eggroll (never order an "eggroll" at an American steakhouse). Then they burned my center cut sirloin to a bitter crisp (never seen that before). My wife, who was pregnant and by necessity ordered her steak well-done, got hers medium. What do you expect? This is no Ruth's Chris Steak House. At least the service was great if the execution was utterly slipshod (except for the fact that we did get the feeling they were trying to kill us). read more

The food at Copper Canyon is good - ribs were excellent, steak was well-cooked. Mashed potatoes and spinach were very good as well. The dessert of pineapple upside down cake with ice cream was really yummy. BUT BUT BUT - the service at Copper Canyon is the absolute worst I've ever experienced. I work near the restaurant and have been there on numerous occasions, sometimes at lunch and sometimes at dinner. The notion that no one person is your server means that NO ONE is your server. This is their hallmark - that all servers are responsible for all tables. Well this means that no one is responsible, so patrons are avoided in the hopes that someone else will do the work. it is the craziest system for service that I've ever experienced. It is uniquely chaotic and unpleasant. And it has been this way every time I've been there, so this seems to work fine for them (probably saves them money on servers) but the patrons pay the price. Horrible Horrible. read more

First the good news. The staff is great, very friendly, attentive and you get the distinct impression that they really want you to have an excellent dining experience. The bad news is that they have serious execution issues in their kitchen. I ordered the house salad and the petite filet. The filet comes with a cabernet sauce (good) and a blue cheese butter topping (not a fan). I asked for it without the blue cheese butter. My salad and drink arrived promptly, and the salad is very good. About 5 minutes later my entry arrived and I had barely started my salad. Worse, it had the blue cheese butter on it. They took the entree back to re-make it (which was fine since it had arrived WAY too early.) I finished my salad and the filet arrived, this time without the cabernet sauce or the blue cheese butter. Strike 2. The manager apologized (again) and brought out a side of the cabernet sauce, which was fine. The meat itself was fair, but at least it was cooked correctly. I will definitely go back solely on the great service, but will stay away from steaks, which, apparently isn't their strength. This is surprising number of misses for a relatively simple meal, but perhaps next time will be better. read more

Great burger and shoestring fries, strong margarita, lovely service, seated outside. Colleague's crab cakes and ribs were great too. Comfort food. Really hit the spot. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Steak salad was great. My friend ordered the chicken pot pie which was a good size portion and probably great by Northern standards, but not as flavorful as any good Southern grandma's. Ambiance nice and good service. I'd come here again. read more

I went to Copper Canyon and had the Blackened Salmon and it was not only a Exotic Beautiful Dish, but the flavored was out of this world!!....I had a Great Server Brittany that provided amazing service!!!!..... read more

Love the food here, service less than adequate. Last visit we sat at the bar. As we sat down a strawberry blond sorta curly haired petite bartender ask the couple next to us to get the attention of two ladies that were sitting in the booth behind us. One of the ladies at the booth got up and came to the bar to pickup the ticket that they had had from sitting at the bar. The bartender proceeds to explain to them, not to walk away without paying their bill and that it is not her responsiblity to find them and blah, blah blah. The lady pays her bill and the bartender goes in again,"in the future don't walk away........blah, blah, blah." I have never seen such a rude and beligerent bartender in my life. The couple next to us stated that was inappropriate as did the lady that paid her bill. It was very obvious sitting at the bar the bartender was less than helpful with certain patrons as when we were seated she sat down napkins and never returned. Not that she was working she was checking her watch and playing in her hair. I try not to let those things bother me, but she was so blunt it was irritating to see her stand at the bar while all the other bartenders were working. There was no need for her to say what she said and keep repeating it. It sounded as if she had been stiffed before. Normally I would mention it to the manager before leaving, but it was not worth it. I rather go to the Columbia or Gaithersburg location where the atmosphere is different. About the food, I love their salads. They are the right portion and the in house croutons are to die for. read more

My family and I had a wonderful time at Copper Canyon Grill this past Sunday. The food and drinks were amazing! Our server Brittany really knew her stuff in which we all appreciated. I know I will be back because the food was just that good! We had the tortilla soup and eggrolls for starters. My grandmother especially enjoyed the cornbread. I had the crabcakes for my entrée which didn't have a lot of filling (love that). My husband had the salmon which he said he wouldn't eat the whole thing, but he ended up not leaving with a to-go box (lol). Overall, you won't be disappointed in coming here. Just make sure to make a reservation on the weekends as it tends to get pretty busy. read more

It wasn't all that, I was expecting a little more out of the food for the price. Lot's of shops and other restaurants around the neighborhood to pick from. The neighborhood/area is a nice place for a date to stole and shop. read more

Thank you for the amazing service your waitress Danielle gave us tonight, Thursday, September 20th. Hospitality that meticulous and thoughtful is rare and much appreciated. Please acknowledge her accordingly - I will definitely be back! read more

I attended the BMAKisses Celebrity Charity Auction late last month and was reminded about this restaurant that sometimes escapes my memory in downtown Silver Spring. Their generous donation to the auction, and membrance of their generous portion sizes and tasty food made me realize that I haven't patronized this establishment is quite sometime and believe it's time to go back for the "Not So Simple House Salad" with salmon is the best! I can't get enough of the succulent salmon and interesting twist with cornbread crutons (yes, that's right!)....these are some of my favorite things! I would definitnely recommend Copper Canyon to others and am impressed by their community contributions. GO CCG! read more

How do lousy places get positive Yelp reviews? Copper Canyon Grill is one of those way (way!) overpriced places with mediocre reviews and unprofessional wait staff who have been taught to parrot the corporate script: "Hi, I'm Ebeneezer. I'll be your server this evening. Have you dined with us before? We're on the team system here." CCG claims rotisserie chicken as its "signature dish." Some signature: dry and flavorless. You'd be much better off bringing home a nice roasted chicken from Giant or Safeway. Save your money (a lot of it) and stay home or go anywhere else. read more

Went here for Easter, a very warm and pleasant restaurant. The food and drinks were really good. A bit costly but its worth it for the price. I had the bread pudding for desert, holy shit that bitch was fucking good. I mean like really fucking good. Definitely get that bread pudding if you go to this restaurant. read more

Went to happy hour here and enjoyed my wine and the appetizers (the sliders were pretty tasty). The service was lackluster and the bartender kept forgetting what I ordered let alone that I had ordered anything at all. I've heard the potpie is excellent. I'll have to go back and give dinner a try. read more

ate here with a dear friend last night. we had MUCHO catching up to do so we picked a place we'd been before and knew was comfortable/easy so we could focus on all the talking and not on our surroundings or figuring out what to get to eat/drink. that being said, we still took forever to pick out a bottle of wine [b/c we kept getting into cath-up convo mode and putting the wine list down]. our [1st*] server had to come back twice to ask us if we'd settled on drinks, but she was very patient and friendly and not at all pushy. we finally settled on a bottle of riesling (chateau ste michelle - YUM) and friendly girl server went off to put that in. (*i see from the other reviews that this multi-serving thing is apparently the norm here now. i had no idea. this was probably my 4th or 5th time @ this place and i don't remember experiencing that before. at any rate, it wasn't so bad. when friendly girl came to us the first time, i did notice she said something like, "my name is ______,and i'll be one of your servers this evening," which struk me as a little odd. but whatevs. we saw her the most and didn't get asked the same thing multiple times like some other folks have said in their reviews., so it was fine) when friendly girl server returns with the bottle and glasses, she struggles with the corkscrew so much that another server comes over to help her. she seems embarassed and excuses herself to go put in the soups we've just mentioned we'd like to start with (tortilla chicken). i felt bad for her b/c i bartend part-time and i know how stupid that feels when the occasional bottle just won't cooperate and your customers are [usually impatiently] watching you make a fool of yourself trying to work that damn cork out. but, if i'm totally honest, i probably would've been annoyed (as a customer) had i not experienced it from the server-side before. corkscrew boy server pours our wine and asks if friendly girl has told us the specials? she hadn't, so he does. we're not interested so we order other stuff and corkscrew boy goes off to put those in. as soon as corkscrew boy disappears, friendly girl is back with our soup. it is piping hot and pretty, and we are knee-deep in convo so friendly girl just sets them before us quietly and moves on. she's reading us, which i appreciate in servers b/c, while attentiveness is good, lots of interruption when you don't need anything is not. points for friendly girl. the soups is pretty tasty. standard tortilla soup mix of spices and corn and tomatoes and whatnot. maybe a little saltier than some would like, but it didn't bother me too much. the minute our bowls are taken, our entrees arrive courtesy of some anonymous and mute food runner. GF got the crabcakes and i got the same thing i get every time i've been to copper/red rock canyon - the rotisserie chicken. i can't speak to GF's crabcakes b/c i do not do crustaceans, but she seemed pleased. i was definitely pleased - just as i have been every other time - with the chicken. it is SO.VERY.TASTY. it comes with garlic mashed potatoes (the red ones, so a little different) and string beans. it is a LOT of chicken though - i think 1/4 or maybe even 1/2. i actually eat very little meat in my regular diet, so have a lot left over and this could easily be my meat for the whole week, if not more. as we ate, GF and i got down to the nitty-gritty catching up and friendly girl continued to read us well, only checking on us a couple of times verbally but continuing to pass by frequently, with attentive eyes each time. corkscrew boy came by once too. there were even a few water works and while i was pulling tissues out of my purse for GF, friendly girl appears with two glasses of water and a compassionate smile w/o a word or any awkwardness. more points for her. but where she really got points was with her overall patience. GF and i were in there for over FOUR hours and not once did friendly girl try to rush us out or make us order more (wine, dessert, etc). she asked, we declined and that was it. she kept the water and smiles coming, and kept just enough distance to let us have our much-needed girl time. so why 4 and not 5 stars? well, it *is* a chain, LOL. i've not yet seen a chain deserving of 5 stars, but i suppose there's always hope. this review reflects my best experience thus far @ the place; not all have been this good [though none were terrible]. they lose points for changing their name [but nothing else] and having the old sign/name up for so long, confusing everyone. almost the entire menu is meat, more meat and fish, making it hard to dine with vegetarians/vegans. as the saying goes, it's the little things, i suppose. they do the bigger/general things well. nice atmosphere & decor. comfortable seating. good, professional staff. the bar is a good size and they have GREAT drinks. oh, and clean bathrooms! always a good thing. ;-) i'll go back. read more

Best restaurant in the area! Amazing selection of appetizers and/or meals. Ask for David to be your waiter- he was personable, fun, had great recommendations- even with a large group! read more

Danielle is "AMAZING" I went for the 1st time on Valentines day with my friend. Danielle was patient because we were newbies and very knowledgeable about the menu.. She suggested the Kung Fu Girl wine lol because I wanted slightly bitter and my friend wanted sweet (rookie) and her suggestion satisfied us both! I have been to copper canyon at least 7 times since Valentines day because of Danielle's first impression! I haven't been let down one time :-) Keep up the good work. read more
