I had the pleasure of being served by Marcus, who was absolutely exceptional. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and his drinks were outstanding. The host Kenji he was just as amazing--welcoming, kind, and brought such a genuine, comforting sense of humor that truly lifted the moment. During a difficult day, both of them provided not just great service, but real care and hospitality. Because of them, I will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you for such a memorable experience.

They had a new bartender that messed up the drinks, but they made new ones immediately and left the old ones with us, nice touch. The crab sandwich was really good, however I would have liked a little more crab cake. Shoe string fries were really good as well. The seafood salad had a lot of food. We sat outside which was wonderful. Good overlook of the courtyard. The waiter was green, but was friendly and tried hard to get stuff right. I would recommend to give this place a try.

The atmosphere here is great and I love how there's a DJ playing. Theres TV's everywhere plus they have a huge screen in the middle so it's great for watching the games. I only tried the Philly egg rolls which were served nice and hot. They were very delish in my option and crispy too!

The worst customer service experiences I've ever had…read more I came to Sports & Social Bethesda to watch the World Cup Final, and as a customer who paid for food and drinks, I expected basic respect. I am in my final weeks of pregnancy, and the way your staff treated me was absolutely unacceptable. A staff member initially seated us, but another server suddenly told us to leave. We politely moved cuz we thought another reservation ppl arrives or what. Just realized they came for walk in cuz i saw they have armbands. Then, while we were standing nearby with our drinks, another staff member came and told us to move again because someone else who stands near us wanted the space for wings lol. Are you kidding me we also ordered stuffs and barely standing at the corner. I have lived in the U.S. over 15 years, and this was honestly one of the rudest and most poorly managed experiences I've ever had in my life. I understand busy events can be chaotic, but repeatedly moving a paying, even we standing in corner not even seats with heavily pregnant customer around with zero consideration is unacceptable. If you don't want to lose business, either treat customers fairly or train your servers properly.

The host's name was Mercedes and she explained to me her food recommendations. She was very professional and smiled all the time. She also told me it is raining outside so I should take an umbrella. I didn't have too much of an expectation on coffee as this venue is located inside a hotel but this coffee was definitely the best coffee I've ever had in any hotels.

I came on a…read moreFriday night, so it was definitely busy and packed, but we were able to get seated right away at the sushi bar. The ambiance and decor were nice. It was definitely a loud atmosphere, but not something I minded. The service was a bit slow, which was understandable given how busy they were, and our server was friendly. Sitting at the sushi bar, I did notice several orders being mixed up or sent back, which may have contributed to the slower service. As for the food I ordered, it was just okay... nothing really stood out or wowed me tbh. I got the soft shell crab and a shrimp tempura taco. They were decent, but I felt the prices were a bit high for the quality. I didn't end up ordering any sushi, so maybe when I'm craving some sushi I'll come back to give that a try.

This was on a Sunday night and while it was busy, it was very pleasant. We each had the three course meal and it was superb! Chicken Parmesan with Vodka sauce, spaghetti and a wonderful Ceaser salad was my choice. Delicious. My husband had the spaghetti and meatball dish and the tomato salad with mozzarella slices and basil. Brother in law had the calamari which he shared. it was equally good. Dessert was a beautiful creme we all had. Additionally, our waiter Don was attentive, interacting with us and very kindly wishing the anniversary couple a happy day. We were also given a complimentary drink with dessert. Overall a very positive experience.

I have a shellfish allergy and also don't eat pork, so unfortunately there weren't a lot of options for me to choose from.... We also tried the Oreo cheesecake.

The restaurant inside is very nice. I would say elegant without being off-putting. We were seated…read morein the back at a nice table for two. White table cloth. When we were seated, the host lit a table candle. We immediately received water and a plate for sharing of crisp papadums with what I think was a mango chutney. The crackers were crisp and flavorful and the chutney was delicious. A great start. We ordered two appetizers to try them: Mulligatawny soup ($8.99) - a very nice portion came in a bowl accompanied with two cups/spoons. We each had at least two small cups of soup from the one portion. Excellent soup. Samosa Chaat - ($10.99) - another very nice sized portion for sharing. And also excellent. A bit spicy and very flavorful. Entrees: Lamb Shank - beautifully prepared. Accompanied by rice. We both were surprised it didn't come with some vegetables on the sauce (like a few carrots), but the lamb itself is very flavorful. Yellow Daal - it's good. I likely wouldn't get it again as it was fine, but not great. Nothing wrong with it, but everything else was so flavorful and distinctive that this just seemed "fine". Chilly Garlic Naan - should have gotten an order of regular naan or garlic naan. This was so spicy that it was unpleasant to eat. My partner and I both like spicy food, but the spiciness interfered with our enjoyment of our entrees. Again, it's not the fault of the item - it's more of a warning that the spiciness is overpowering. I assume other people like this, but I prefer something that complements as opposed to overpowers (to me). Service was excellent throughout the meal. Full from the appetizers, we took most of the entrees home. Probably will discard the naan, unfortunately. Again, maybe you'll like it. I'm really glad we came here and will be back again.

I loved my Blood Orange Spritz way more than the cucumber mist it was just missing something to me. The empanadas were the best hands down. The bbq chicken was very flavorful and the burger was so big my friend and I had to split it in half lol. My friend enjoyed her slides and we both enjoyed the cheesy bread. Can't wait to come back again!!!

I was trying to arrange a company dinner for 20-25 people THREE WEEKS in advance, ideally in a…read moreprivate room. I never imagined that making a reservation could be this frustrating. Before I even reached a staff member, I called approximately FOUR times with no answer. I tried mornings, afternoons, and evenings, hoping to catch someone at a less busy time. I then made THREE more calls that were answered. Each time, I was told the sales manager--the only person who could handle a larger-party reservation--was unavailable because she was in a "meeting." I understand people have meetings, but what good is a reservation process if the only person authorized to help is never reachable? During the first two conversations, female staff members took my name, phone number, and email address, promising to pass them along. I asked them to read my email back to confirm it was correct, but both simply said, "We got it." Yet I received no call, email, text, or voicemail. I had specifically explained that any of those methods would be fine if I missed a call. On my third successful call, a male employee was at least kind enough to read back my contact information. I appreciated that basic courtesy. And, finally, the sales manager emailed me. Unfortunately, she claimed she had called me multiple times and left voicemails. Where were they? I was regularly checking my phone and voicemail because I was waiting for a response. I can only speak to what I received: no calls or voicemails from her. After all this, apparently email finally became an option! Her email also left me feeling as though I was inconveniencing her by trying to book an event. A sales manager's role should include responding to inquiries, building client relationships, and helping secure business--not making potential customers chase down a reservation. Eventually, I learned that the private room required approximately 65 guests and a $5,000 minimum spend. That policy is completely understandable. What I cannot understand is why it took roughly SEVEN calls to learn information that could have been explained during my first conversation with staff. A simple "Our private room has a 65-person minimum, but we can discuss seating for 25 in the main dining area" would have been enough. I manage a business too. I respect busy schedules and don't expect immediate replies or special treatment. But if only one employee can book large parties, the restaurant needs a reliable way to handle inquiries when that person is unavailable. Perhaps 25 guests aren't considered a big enough event to deserve attention here. We weren't asking for a discount or an exception--just trying to bring 25 paying customers to dinner. The biggest disappointment wasn't the private-room minimum. It was the lack of communication and the feeling that our business didn't matter. Customer service starts before guests ever walk through the door. At Bethesda, our experience was disappointing before we even sat down. Perhaps our party of 25 wasn't worth the sales manager's time, but customers shouldn't have to attempt a Guinness World Record in phone calls just to make a dinner reservation!
