Stopped in at Mason's Famous Lobster Rolls at the National Harbor this past weekend, and I had the…read morelobster roll. I upgraded to the Harbor Style, which included a lobster tail laid on top, and it was delicious. Honestly, I probably could have done without the extra lobster tail because they already pack plenty of lobster into the regular roll -- definitely enough to satisfy me. But for only $7 more, the upgrade was worth it. I ended up eating the lobster roll first and then saving the lobster tail to enjoy later dipped in butter, so it felt like a little two-for-one situation. Overall, the roll was really good, as always, and the staff was very friendly, which made the experience even better. If you're in the area and in the mood for lobster, I'd definitely recommend checking them out. Enjoy!

There was only one other customer, and the employees appeared to care less. It seems like just looking at someone and saying hi is now a skill set. While the lobster roll was amazing as always, the lobster mac and cheese was inedible. I think I was served old food.

The food here was a lot better than I expected. We got wings, tenders and nuggets; as well as a…read moresmash burger. Service was fast, friendly and prompt as we were the only ones in there at the time. The chairs are a little uncomfortable for people with bigger hips and thighs, so next time we'll sit at the high top. Everything was well seasoned and good. The mild heat was perfect for me, but medium was too hot. My daughter got hot and I declined to try it. Surprisingly the smash burger was the best thing we had. The crimson onion was very good as well. We would return.

Crimson Coward is a Nashville Hot Chicken restaurant located between mezeh and Ben & Jerry's…read more Restaurant has a fair amount of interior seating and the menu included Sandwiches, Tenders, Wings, Wraps, and other items. Heat comes in five different levels from county to burn. I ordered the three-tender combo in country that came with fries, a drink, and two sauces. The tenders at the country level had just enough spice for me to keep it interesting, but not burn. My friend ordered medium and it was making him sweat. The fries were perfect and both sauces were good. The crimson sauce has a nice flavor, and while I don't like Ranch, the chunky ranch they offered had a light, non-overpowering flavor. Considering how busy they were, we received our food in a reasonable amount of time. Overall food was tasty and I would return here again.

It was not life-changing but it was dependable in that national-chain comfort way. Like airport luxury but with better sauce. You know the lane. You know the bite. It delivered. The cheese fries were the banger. Crispy enough. Salty enough. Covered in that creamy cheese sauce that makes no nutritional argument and does not care to. They had the fast-food dopamine thing fully activated. Messy. Simple. Effective. The kind of side that steals attention from the burger without apologizing. The food overall was good but the energy around it threw the whole thing off. Flavor was there. Execution was there. But the vibe made everything taste a little dimmer. Food can only carry so much when the room feels like everybody clocked in against their will. Staff was miserable across the board. No warmth. No smile. No "what's up." Everyone looked jailed and unable to leave. A basic smile would have changed the whole experience. Instead the service made the meal feel heavier than it needed to. The space was decent and maintained. Food hall setup inside MGM. Clean enough. Easy enough. Nothing too crazy. More convenient stop than destination. it's giving...

i've eaten at this establishment before and am a fan of their offerings!…read more the national harbor location is situated in the heart of their downtown. the interior is the same as the others i've been to, family style round booth seating mixed with proper chairs. we came for lunch on a friday and it was moderately busy. i ordered my favourite, the rainbow bowl with grilled boneless chicken breast, plainish seasoning. all the colours of the rainbow are really represented here, with tomatoes, hummus, avocado, cauliflower...with a beautiful breast of chicken sitting atop these fresh colourful veggies. it took me some time, but i thoroughly enjoyed my plate, eating almost every bit of food that was on the plate. service was very good, at one point they even moved us b/c our initial table was a bit wobbly. the second table was very nice in that it was tucked in a corner, and quieter, away from the door too. i wish we had this where i live in california, but until then, this will always be on my list to eat whenever i'm back in the dmv!

I never leave a bad review but I feel like I had to make aware of an experience…read more We were staying nearby and wanted a quick bite to eat. We happened to be by this spot. We stood in line which took about 10 to 15 minutes. Once we placed the order we stood by the pick up counter, expecting it to come out rather promptly. No lie, from the time I ordered, based on my receipt, to the time they called us, It was 31 minutes! We saw the sandwiches sitting there for 10 to 15 minutes waiting to be wrapped. Other orders were done before ours. Mind you, the bread was soggy from the condiments and the lettuce and tomato chillin on it. I didn't understand why someone else had to wrap it and put it in the bag. As expected, my chicken rainbow bowl was cold. The rice was cold and dry. Couldn't even warm it up because of the avocado, hummus and tomatoes in it. We had missing sides. One of the sides given was incorrect. We had to go back to ask for the missing sides. You would think after 30 minutes, they would have our order correct. The manager was nice enough to understand the frustration after the employee tried to correct us and said she did put the correct sides. No one is trying to lie for coleslaw...... To top it off, we had stomach issues after. Never again.

The soup was good and thick…read more The wheat bread on the sub was dry, so I don't think I'll get that again, but otherwise the sub was good. The girl forgot to put cheese on my sub. I couldn't figure out what was missing until I was almost done. I probably would've enjoyed it more with the cheese. Their kettle chips are really good!! There's a deal for $7.99 for a turkey or ham sub, chips, and a drink. Which I can appreciate!! I also got a eggnog milkshake which was the best knees, it was creamy, flavorful and delicious... My stomach didn't appreciate the richness, but I did. Lol. I got a bag of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies which were good when I've had them in the past, but these were hurt your tooth hard. The brownie cookie was delicious though. I'd definitely get that again. My granddaughter had the Mac n cheese kids meal. The Mac n cheese was creamy, it was bland but the cheesiness made it work somehow. She also got a cookie, drink, and chips which was also a good deal. It was enough to fill her up. . The restaurant was clean with lots of seating. We got there when they first opened so it wasn't many customers at that time. The staff was friendlyish. Ughh idk. It was weird, the cashier was nice but the other ladies were standing around talking and seemed bothered when they made our food. They said business had been slow so I figured they wouldn't have minded fixing a few sandwiches. But I guess I was wrong. They were low-key rude. I was very bubbly and friendly, but they killed my vibe so I matched their weird energy without even realizing it!!! Smh. I really like Potbelly, since we don't have one where I'm from so I always look for them when I go out of town. But unfortunately I wouldn't return to this one. Maybe it was an off day.

I was not familiar with Succotash before stumbling upon it while researching highly rated spots in…read morethe area. After reading through a number of glowing reviews, I decided to give it a shot, and I am so glad I did. It lived up to the reputation completely. If you are planning a visit, consider this your warning to pace yourself because everything on the menu is worth ordering. My group definitely went overboard, but in the best way possible. We started with the deviled eggs, which my table mates raved about. I didn't personally try them, but based on how quickly they disappeared, they are clearly a must-order. The pork belly ssam was a standout, perfectly balanced and easily one of the highlights of the night. We also shared the dirty chicken and the tater tots, both of which hit the mark. For our sides, we opted for the namesake corn succotash and the seasonal ginger broccoli. Both were seasoned beautifully and complemented the heavier dishes well. It is rare to find a spot where the sides feel just as intentional and well-executed as the entrees. The drinks were just as impressive, rounding out the meal perfectly. My only advice for next time is to exercise a little more restraint because while I want to try everything on the menu, the portions are generous. I will definitely be heading back soon to work my way through the rest of the offerings. It is a solid choice for anyone looking for elevated Southern comfort food in a great atmosphere.

The shrimp and grits were delightfully prepared, with rich flavors and perfect texture that made the dish stand out as a highlight of the meal. Every plate that came to the table felt thoughtfully crafted, and the attention to flavor and presentation really showed. What made the experience even better was the outstanding service. The manager, Geoffrey, was delightful, he personally catered to our needs, made us feel genuinely welcomed, and turned Succotash into a true home away from home for our visit. The entire staff was warm, attentive, and professional, which created a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere from start to finish. The cocktails were excellently prepared, balanced, flavorful, and exactly what you want for a daytime outing. Between the great drinks, delicious food, and easygoing setting, it was truly day drinking at its finest. Every detail of our visit felt intentional and well executed, and I'm incredibly grateful to Geoffrey and the entire Succotash team for such a wonderful experience. Thank you!

I ordered the Vibrant Vegan bowl with falafel, brown basmati rice, lentils, tabbouleh, hummus, pickled onions, cabbage slaw, and lemon garlic sauce. Every ingredient tasted fresh and intentional. The falafel had a perfect crisp exterior while staying soft and herbaceous inside, and the lemon garlic sauce tied everything together beautifully. As someone who loves Cava, this immediately gave me that same customizable Mediterranean experience -- but honestly, this bowl held its own. The vegetables were crisp, the portions generous, and everything looked just as good as it tasted. Even after taking it back to the hotel, it still ate incredibly well. The staff moved the line efficiently despite how busy it was, and the open kitchen concept added to the experience watching everything being prepared fresh. Definitely a spot worth the wait if you want something flavorful, fresh, and satisfying without feeling heavy.

A fast casual spot, you get to choose from a pre-set choice or build your own Mediterranean entree. Bowl, pita, or salad...with tons of topping and sauce options to choose from. They were a bit understaffed for the lunch rush, so it was a bit longer of a wait than it should have been, in my opinion. I built my own rice bowl on this visit, which included chicken, veggies, hummus, and a few other random goodies! It was super yummy and came served up with a side pita. My only critique was that the protein serving size was smaller than I expected for the price. Overall, a great, healthier option for lunch or dinner in the area!

The cornbread was perfect. Sweet with a little crisp on the edges, exactly how it should be. Mac and cheese was a hit with my kids. Overall, solid spot and definitely one of the better BBQ options in the area. I'd come back.

The lobby had the kiosk to order, but you couldn't tell who was waiting for food and who was in line, so I asked the man in front of me if he was in line and he caught an attitude because he had to remove his earbuds. He said aren't we all waiting. I was about to get on his level, but I figured out where the line was, because it was people everywhere. Sheesh!! People aren't cordial nowadays it seems. We ordered our food and waited, and waited, and waited... 25 minutes was a long time for FAST food!! I got the McRib meal which was McNasty. The patty was cold and the meat felt like it was an animal I shouldn't have been eating. Lol. McWow!! It was soft and kinda weird. I know people seem to love it, but why??It was also very messy, the bun kept sliding around and bbq sauce was everywhere!!! The burger I got was good and loaded with toppings and their nuggets were top notch like the old school nuggets I remember, not whatever the new nuggets they serve at some McDonald's are. The prices have really increased, so getting cheap food from McDonald's is a thing of the past. The bathroom was kinda not clean. It served it's purpose though. There was one nice employee who was very accommodating, but everyone else wouldn't even acknowledge anyone. The people who paid with cash waited for about 10 minutes before anyone even came to the counter. This place is pretty busy, so be prepared. It was an average visit with a sprinkle of WTF!!!
