I went here with my girlfriend for Saturday brunch. We ordered drinks, the lobster taco, pancakes, deviled eggs, potatoes, and chicken sausage. Where do I start? Lobster tacos were horrible. Barely any lobster meat. Way too much onion. Tortilla was stale and the dish presentation was horrible. Pancakes, burnt outside, Barely fluffy on the inside. Potato's we ordered for the side, cold and under-seasoned. Food also came out at random and not fast at all. If you want slow and under season food not doesn't even come close to worth the value. Go here, if not avoid like the plague. read more

Fork & Kitchen - Food is so delicious. Service is amazing! I def recommend coming here and trying their brunch - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I went here this past Sunday with my cousins for brunch and the venue is very beautiful very clean very pristine and White the Services lot of space in the restaurant the Service the waitress was very nice very knowledgeable about the food except for a few items that she didn't know there was a big discrepancy on the type of champagne that we could get versus like the Prosecco we opted for the Prosecco because it was of course better option the food was good it overall came back cold came out cold and wasn't that memorable but I would definitely recommend this place to somebody in Rockville because it was affordable and the service was nice overall I enjoyed it but don't know if I would rush there again. read more

The service was absolutely horrible. We had reservations to celebrate a birthday at 1. There was a line at the front door and no hostess in sight. At 1:20 we finally got acknowledged and then seated. We ordered drinks, apps and entrees quickly. Soft drinks came out but the cocktail never came so we cancelled. It didn't look like there were dedicated bartenders so everyone was behind the bar. Our entrees took over 1 hour and apps came after. I ordered the steak and eggs... and apparently they ran out of silver flatware and gave me a plastic to go utensil set to eat with. I ordered the blueberry biscuit which tasted like jiffy cornbread mix. Pass on this. The sinful eggs with shrimp were seasoned well. The steak and eggs and potatoes were nicely seasoned. Would I go back? No- nothing blew me away to counteract the bad service. read more

Good was delicious, the service was excellent and the ambiance was amazing. I would recommend this place for a girls brunch and date day/night. read more

My brother, girlfriend and I went here for brunch today. We should've left as soon as we walked in. But first there's no hostess and you had to wait to find a waiter. However we were able to sit at our reservation time. Buttttttt the food WAS NOT good! Good thing is we ordered everything at once and the waiter did let us know that the kitchen was very backed up! We ordered the pancakes, side of bacon & eggs, 2 orders of chicken wings, shrimp & grits, shrimp frittata, lemonade, orange juice, steak & eggs. We went for the viral pancakes but those pancakes gave cornbread. They were not fluffy AT ALL! The first order of chicken wings were asked to be well done and they were not. We told the waiter and got another order that were cooked well done. Everything did not come out staggered. The only food that we kept was the 2 order of chicken wings and the steak and eggs. We actually did give them grace because we do know they are still new but DAMMM. Small cup of orange juice for $5. The ambiance was nice as it is big in there and nice lighting / music. read more

Brandy, Brian, and I visited Fork & Kitchen in The Square and overall had a really solid experience -- strong cocktails, generous portions, and bold flavors throughout. First, the drinks deserve their own moment. The Moco Drop (svedka, gran gala, lemon juice, simple syrup) and the Lychee & Grapefruit Spritz were both well-balanced and noticeably strong -- which I personally loved. These aren't watered-down pours; you're definitely getting a proper cocktail. Food highlights: The Branzino - beautifully pan-seared Mediterranean sea bass with lemon caper sauce and roasted asparagus. Light, flaky, and one of the most balanced dishes of the night. Butcher Cut Pork Chop - thick, bone-in, brined and fire-grilled, finished with rosemary garlic butter. Juicy, flavorful, and satisfying. Soy Garlic Noodles with Shrimp - savory, garlicky, and comforting. The shrimp were seasoned with Cajun seasoning, which added a subtle smoky heat that elevated the entire dish without overpowering it. I actually really enjoyed the Sinful Eggs -- especially the sweet relish inside, which added a nice contrast and brightness to the richness. The flavor combination worked well, and I can see why it's a popular starter. That said, one thing I didn't fully understand was why several items leaned heavily fried. The Sinful Eggs, Lamb Meatballs, and even the Crabcakes all had a fried element to them. While crispy textures can be delicious, it felt a bit repetitive across multiple dishes. I would've loved to see more variation in preparation styles to create better balance throughout the meal. Overall: great vibe, strong cocktails (huge plus), and standout entrees -- especially the fish and pork chop. With a little more variety in cooking techniques, this could easily move from a 4 to a 5 for me. Still worth a visit, especially for Happy Hour (50% off appetizers, draft beers, and wines Monday-Friday 4-7pm). read more

My experience was ultimately disappointing--not because I expected perfection, but because several basic details that shape a dining experience seemed to be overlooked. The seafood grits were not appetizing, and unfortunately, the only flavor I could really identify was the shrimp. I decided to take the remainder home, but upon opening the container later, I found a significant amount of milky liquid that had risen to the top, which was not an appealing presentation. I orderzd this dish because there was no option for egg whites! Service also seemed disconnected from the meal. I waited several minutes after the food arrived for silverware, which gave the impression that it was an afterthought. By the time I was able to eat, the food had become cold. Still wanting to give the experience a fair chance, I ordered a catfish sandwich to take with me, specifically requesting sweet potato fries and the toppings on the side. When I reached my destination and opened the container, I found regular fries instead. The toppings had been scraped off of the bun, with what appeared to be approximately half a tablespoon of purple cabbage and two pickles. Individually, these may seem like small details. Collectively, however, they communicate something much bigger: attention to detail matters. The accuracy of an order, the presentation of the food, having silverware ready, and honoring a simple request all contribute to whether a customer feels valued. I genuinely wanted to have a positive experience, but the lack of attention to these basic details made that difficult. And, perhaps tellingly, the best part of my experience was the cold, refreshing water. I'm not sure I will return, but I hope the feedback is viewed as an opportunity to look beyond the food itself which is imporant) and consider the complete customer experience. read more

We ordered two "bottomless" mimosas at $30 each. The menu specifically said they couldn't be shared, yet what we got amounted to a single $7 bottle between the two of us -- nowhere near what "bottomless" should mean at that price. The food was fine but forgettable. The real highlight was the staff, who were genuinely kind and attentive -- that's the only reason this isn't rated lower. Won't be rushing to book another reservation here. read more

Nice place. Read your receipt!! The staff could use more training. The greeter didn't have her best day and was dismissive when I asked for a table in a particular section . Our waitress ghosted us after over charging us for "Auto gratuity". This was a busy Sunday afternoon, not that it matters But the food looked better than it tasted. I hope my friend feels better after biting into the raw sandwhich. See pictures .... read more

Poor service--waiter forgot our table multiple times. Poor meal timing--main course came out before appetizers. When we sent them back, they just came back out again, overcooked by heat lamps. read more

We made a reservation for Saturday at 4:00 PM for dinner and arrived a bit early, around 3:40 PM. We were seated right away, which was great. However, we were given the brunch menu and told that brunch would end at 4:00 PM--in about 20 minutes. We explained that we had a 4:00 PM dinner reservation and wanted to order from the dinner menu, but were then informed that although brunch ends at 4:00 PM, the dinner menu doesn't begin until 5:00 PM. This effectively means they allow 4:00 PM reservations while the kitchen is in a transition period, leaving guests unable to order dinner for an entire hour. We decided to stay and ordered drinks while waiting. Around 4:45 PM, we asked if we could place our dinner order early so it could be prepared as soon as possible, and the server agreed. Unfortunately, our food didn't arrive until about 5:45 PM. The long wait might have been more tolerable if the food met expectations, but it was disappointing. The garlic bread appetizer came out after our entrees, and while it was eventually comped, it didn't improve the experience. The pasta with salmon was overcooked, overly salty, and lacked flavor. The fried Cornish hen was dry and had very little meat, and the mac and cheese was underwhelming. Overall, this was a frustrating experience, especially given the confusion around menu availability and the extended wait time for subpar food. One positive note: our server was very pleasant and courteous throughout the experience. Also, the minimalist decor of the place was nice and clean bathroom. Unfortunately, I would not return or recommend this establishment. read more

It's unfortunate that I am rating Fork and Kitchen so low. I really thought it was going to be the perfect location to host a Brunch for a family gathering. I made reservations four days in advance, visited the restaurant and spoke with the manager the day before to confirm arrangements, but they fell short in service and food. Based on what we experienced, they do not have enough staff and definitely do not have good chef/s. Our reservation was at 1pm and our food arrived at 2:24pm. Granted we had a party of 13, BUT I do not believe preparing appetizers and breakfast foods (supposedly their specialty) takes over an hour to prepare. In addition, the food was awful. Dry, brick hard, stale toast without butter and jam, bland potatoes, barely cooked bacon (was my basic breakfast which I thought would be pretty hard to mess up). Of my 12 guests, 4 of them enjoyed their meal. All others were sent back due to poor quality. The mimosas were good. The manager and staff are definitely out of their league in restaurant management, sadly. Not worth the $1k spent and we definitely won't be back. read more

I wasn't going to leave a review, but I think constructive criticism is necessary in order for businesses to grow and do better. I am all for supporting my people, but if you are going to step into the food industry, you have to be prepared so when opportunities present themselves, you don't have to get ready. I chose this spot because I saw a TikTok video and assumed the food would be amazing. I'm only going to focus on what my son and I ordered. The Brussels sprouts were entirely too sweet, and I had to send them back. The Sinful Deviled Eggs were torched. The Lobster Pot Pie had good flavor, but it also came out burnt. The parmesan bread was overloaded with cheese. My son ordered fries, which he said were just okay, along with plain wings that were undercooked. His mac and cheese came out cold. He usually eats a lot, but he actually lost his appetite at the table. I still tipped our waiter very well because none of this was her fault. Unfortunately, this was not a good Mother's Day pick for us, and it was very disappointing. We will not be returning. The owner really needs to invest in experienced chefs because there is far too much competition out here to be serving food that simply misses the mark. read more

Take a walk with me in your mind as you read this review: My wife discovered this place on TikTok and we were looking for a new brunch spot to try. We made reservations for this place and we were surprised to learn during our visit from our nice server Venicia that they are in the soft-open phase of things; they've only been open since Valentine's Day week and this was their third week open. Now I can get to the other parts of the review! The location: This place is in Rockville Square near Trader Joe's. Parking here is tricky, you MIGHT want to arrive earlier than you think to get a good spot or chance it using Trader Joe's parking (Shhh) The Atmosphere: The vibe here is chic/modern/artsy. It's giving museum meets warehouse with good lighting and open floor plan. I thought for a second I stepped into an upscale ghost kitchen. They are working on the aesthetics of the place. They have circular lighting and plants covering portions of the space. They also have a wall that has different sizes and shapes of vases with lighting on each one. This is where the museum Vibe comes in. They have marble styled tables. They are planning to add more things for the Grand Opening and I can almost assure you it will be a quite popular place once word gets around! Most people don't even know about this place yet :) this is your queue to go ASAP. The Service: Our server Venicia was very nice and helpful. She was prompt, friendly and what we appreciated most; honest! I had asked her opinion on a few items I was considering and she told me the truth. Thank you for that :) The Food: We started off with drinks. My wife got ginger ale and I got cranberry juice while we looked at the menu. We decided on their pancakes; they were crunch on the outside like that of cornbread and fluffy on the inside like a pancake but dense and came topped with what appeared to be a cinnamon butter and bourbon flavored syrup! (Yum) I decided on their creme brulee French toast which came on to nicely sized pieces of bread with Creme Brulee filling in the middle and fruit. It was also plated beautifully with cream drizzle. My wife and I also got a few sides. She got some of the fluffiest eggs I've tasted in a long time with cheese and some well-seasoned potatoes. I opted for bacon and we shared the Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was good but could use a bit of salt and pepper but that's an easy fix. That was the only thing that we felt could use some improvement but otherwise 4.5 outta 5 stars - SupaFlyITGuy approved! You'll definitely have a great time here and should also come back for dinner which we hope to do in the future! read more

I got catfished by their AI generated images of various dishes they make. OMG this is filter accidentally turned off med stream bad! Here's a deal. I went there for dinner tonight entered and there's no check-in desk, just open concrete floors, white chairs, white tables, white walls. There were probably two other people inside this place beside the staff. Music is loud R&B. Forget about having conversations. Honestly the music ruined a lot what this restaurant could have been. But here's the real problem, the food quality is poor. Steak is hard poor quality probably not USDA graded. The fish, dry, thin, looked nothing like a sea bass. Sadly, I was looking forward to a newer breakfast/brunch/dinner type place in the town center. The owner needs to sell this place to a well seasoned restaurateur who knows decor, placements, and food. read more

What a great place to go to on a Wednesday night. The restaurant itself is lovely and modern. The Happy Hour specials cut the cost of the wine, beer and appetizers in half. The lamb meatballs and deviled eggs were excellent. And it's delicious. We enjoyed having Rachel our server - she was great! - and think that more people should take advantage of this restaurant in Rockville. read more

The ambiance is good and the atmosphere feels good. There was a few things that were not quite right, there is no air conditioning and the portable AC unit are not ventilating properly, our water cups were dirty and had food particles we have to get them replaced, the food came cold and not all at once and the person giving out the dishes was just placing the plates everywhere not asking who had what. Our waitress was very nice but was hard to find her when we needed her. Overall the experience was ok read more

We came to Fork and Kitchen tonight really wanting to like it. The menu looked great and the reviews were encouraging, but the experience just didn't match what we expected. We were seated right away, which was nice, especially with a private event going on. After that, nothing happened. No water, no greeting, no server. We watched two tables that arrived after us get water and place their orders while we sat there waiting. We eventually had to ask another server just to get water and to let someone know we hadn't been helped. When our order was finally taken, the wait continued. Drinks and food took about 30 to 40 minutes to show up, and one drink -- the mango margarita -- was extremely sweet. The table behind us never had their order taken at all, which made it clear the service issues weren't just a one‑off. Fork and Kitchen seems like it could be a great spot based on the menu and reviews, but both the front and back of house need serious attention. After tonight, we won't be returning. read more

Looks promising. However they do not post their hours of operation. Came one day recently for lunch during the week and found they were closed. I thought they already went out of business. Just now, a Friday afternoon, I see they are open. Very strange for a business not to post hours when they are open. Would like to see them succeed even though I have not tried their cuisine. Recommend they post their menu and hours of operation at the entrance. Gave one star only to be able to post this comment. read more

The food here wa sreally good. It's all comfort food dishes. I had the braised short ribs, which were juicy and delicious. We also shared the parmesean bread, which was more like mozzarella sticks but way better. The red sangria was good as well. The front of the house staff seemed a little inexperienced, but I'll let that slide because its still a new retaurant. read more

I went for brunch with friends and it was my first time visiting. The service, ambiance, and food was really nice. Our waiter, Jackie was amazing and helped us with deciding what we needed to try as it was our first time. I loved that they give us the option to serve our mimosas by bringing our own mini table with all the ingredients haha. I tried the chicken and fork'n pancake first. Then I tried the frittata with lobster. I think both tasted really good and the portion sizes did not disappoint. I was surprised to know that the owners of fork n kitchen are the same owners of south house in Gaithersburg. All I can say is south house needs to take some pointers from fork n kitchen regarding the food because the last time I went to south house, the food was a disappointment and I have not been back there. The only reason why I didn't give this place 5 stars is because of the seating. We were a party of 7 and we were a little tight at the table that was assigned to us and there were no places to hang our purses. Regardless, I will definitely be coming back to fork & kitchen! read more

I wish I could share what they did well. Unfortunately, I had high hopes for this spot. However, we got there on time per our brunch reservation, but we still had to wait 15 min to be seated. When we finally got seated we ordered right away, but the drinks never showed up. We didn't get silverware. We waited an additional 1 hr and 30 min and the food still did not arrive. When we got up to leave we have already been there for 2 hours the food started to arrive but it was all over the place and were missing tons of food items and what showed up was very cold. We decided to leave right away. No silverware still. The ambiance is cool but sadly the service here is a challenge. read more

I met up at four in kitchen with a friend. We ordered off the lunch menu. I had a fish sandwich, which was surprisingly good. The cod tasted moist, it wasn't fishy. The fries were great. Apparently this used to be an old paint store that got converted into a restaurant. It's modern industrial design, which these days feels warm and welcoming. The service was even better than the food. The waitress was very attentive, and stopped by frequently to refresh our soft drinks and water. I wish I remembered her name. I will return. read more

This was the most amazing experience that I've had. it all started with greetings at the door. The hostess was kind and welcoming and there wasn't a wait time at all. The aesthetic of the restaurant is very modern and clean. They play good music in the background so it's perfect if you're having a birthday party or just want to catch up with some friends. The music is not too loud so you can definitely hear yourself speak. The food is 10/10! The sinful eggs are mouth watering, the French toast is fluffy and good. They have the best Mac and cheese I've ever had! oh and the endless mimosas This is a place I will Continue coming to. Give it a try you'll love it. read more

I booked a reservation at 9pm just for them to sit there and tell me the kitchen is closed mind you. why would I book a reservation to sit at a damn bar very unprofessional and the lady who told me the kitchen was closed disgusting attitude. Dont book later because they will send you on your way. read more

I went for my birthday brunch with my s/o and had a GREAT time! We were greeted immediately when we walked in and seated without a reservation (on a late Saturday). The appetizers and main dishes were absolutely delicious, my partner and I shared both of our meals and could not get it enough -- we left full and happy. The steak was grilled perfectly, french toast fluffy and decadent, and the deviled eggs were phenomenal. The ambience was very calm, clean, and reminded me of a nice DC brunch spot. I plan to come here with my friends for brunch soon -- their drinks menu was great as well, and the mimosa tower VERY impressive. Very kind staff too, 10/10! read more

Food was mediocre at best. Ordered braised beef as an entree and it was far from being tender and moist. It was dry as a hockey puck.

Everything from the atmosphere to the service was top-notch. The Branzino was easily the highlight of the night. Can't wait to come back!

I visited this establishment today and my experience was a 10/10. I ordered the sinful deviled eggs with shrimp, french toast and a side of potatoes. The food was hot, well seasoned and tasty. I sat at the bar and the bartenders were attentive and helpful . The vibe was cool. The set up is very minimalist but I was told they are still decorating. Overall I had a great experience and look forward to going back to try more items on the menu! read more

Don't order the crab cakes -- inedible. A complimentary dessert was taken instead. No host to seat you. Vibe is great, service is not. $12 "fee" added with no explanation. But it's early; let's hope there's improvement. read more

First let me say-Service is great! Rachel is a great server. Happy hour pricing is great also. We had 3 apps and four drinks (wine and beer) and it was under $40 Now the not so great. The food is subpar. We ordered the deviled eggs (they are fried and barely had any filling), wings were ok but mainly drumsticks. Lamb meatballs- definitely were frozen and sat under a heat lamp for quite sometime. read more

The place looks great inside. It's very modern and open. I ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict and sinful eggs. The sinful eggs weren't bad. The little bit of taste they had wasn't bad. The crab cakes, however were so salty, I honestly checked to see if there was a salty lick underneath the egg (which was overcooked and cooked all the way through). I ended up just eating the potatoes. It seems most of the people came there to drink (A LOT). The 1.5 hour bottomless margarita tower was ridiculously large and popular, even at 11:30 am on a Saturday. I can only guess that's the reason for the restaurant's popularity. It certainly isn't the taste of the food. The service was...adequate. Refills on coffee and water were harder to come by than they should have been, but then, I think I would have gotten more attention if I had ordered alcohol. I saw all of these great reviews on Instagram, so my experience was truly a surprise. Anyway, lesson learned. Don't believe everything you see on social media. read more

There Seafood Grits , our waitress was a wonderful young lady service with a smile. Being from Baltimore it's worth the drive to Rockville.

Terrible service for large parties, food portion is unacceptable, the taste and texture of food ewww, because some of it came out burnt and over seasoned, and management/ owner is disrespectful. We had a large party where reservation were made in advance, upon arriving members of our party had no where to sit, menus were not given out, we had to ask for them, once our food was ordered, double orders of what people ordered was coming out, dishes came out that wasn't ordered, some people didn't get there food and had to ask where there food was. The owner was working and never came over to apologize, check on service or nothing! We had a party of 21 people and some of the people had to sit at the bar. After about an 1.5 the owner comes over and says y'all have to leave you been here long enough. Never once apologizing for the mishap of the reservation that were made in advance, the time it took for us to get the food, the taste of what little food that you got and poor service we received. I would rate this place a 2 of 5 .. just because the ambiance is nice along with the serving dishes, but the food and service is bottom tier. Robert Irvine from "The Food Network" channel needs to step in and help them out. read more

Great place for family outings. Very Clean atmosphere, Welcoming environment and great servers from beginning to the end.

Overall it was ok. Our server was horrible, but the presentation of the food and drinks and aesthetic of the place were really nice, the taste of the food was just ok, nothing really to rave about. Our server just really ruined the experience a lot for our group and she was not helpful in finding items on the menu or knowledgeable about what was happening in the restaurant. I'd love to say it was just me but a lot of the other tables that were under her service were also frustrated from our there service by her and she even started to be a little rude toward the end of our dinning experience. Maybe if we got a different server I would give it more stars. (Our server was the red-ish hair head with the bob) read more
