Hard to beat a $20 brunch buffet in this area. But I still dreaded coming to Jasper's with some friends after church for the first time in years after never having been impressed and was pleasantly surprised I didn't want to flip a table by the end. They don't take brunch reservations (we'd tried the week prior) and the hostess stand was a hot mess quoting a 1.5 hour wait to scare us away but we waited anyway and were sat within about 25 minutes. Imagine if we had left? Clearly a retraining is needed, I understand managing expectations but don't miss out on customers because you're afraid. Our server was friendly but perhaps a bit in the weeds, she forgot flatware, drinks, etc. The buffet staff (mainly waffle man) was surly as hell but maybe he was having a bad day. #notmyproblem. Saved from 2 stardom by the yummy food. I guess the secret to a good time is to have my head in a good Christian, patient place. read more

Everyone needs to get a slice of home and go to Jaspers for a real family styled meal. The decor blew me away and the food matched the price. No regrets coming here for my one dinner stop in MD. read more

Appetizers were good. Our table shared the crab dip, sampler, mozzarella sticks, and tiger shrimp. I had the salmon and shrimp and the salmon was on point! The shrimp were over cooked. Overall we had a great time even though we each had to take out our phone lights to read the menu it was so dark. read more

I actually enjoyed Jaspers. My server Molly was awesome. She was truly attentive and she was knowledgeable about the menu. I went on a Saturday afternoon, so the place wasn't packed. It was quite pleasant. I ordered the spinach dip for an appetizer. It was the best I've had. For lunch, I had a black bean burger with tiger sauce and some "interesting" mayo. I strongly dislike the mayo-ish sauce. The patty was undercooked, and I'm a vegetarian so I know. For sides, I got the broccoli and sweet potato casserole. My sides were awesome! The broccoli was steamed with herbs. The sweet potato casserole was more of a dessert with the cinnamon and brown sugar. I'm definitely returning simply for the apps, sides, and maybe drinks. read more

This is what an over well done steak looks like. I went out to eat with two friends. My order was taken for a well done steak. I cut into it and it bled into the plate. I asked for it to be taken back. I was brought back the same steak which was already done on the outside. Now with a thick burned layer. I asked for it to be done over again! The managers comes walking out like The Hulk very aggressive and confrontational, asking if I asked for the steak to be done over. Which makes no sense of your employee brought it back and relayed the message....what's the problem what did you not understand? My friends were done eating before they were even done cooking a new steak. We asked for the manager to work with us, and remove the steak from our bill. He was very rude aggressive and uncooperative. He refused to compensate us in any way for our ruined lunch date. Below is a picture of the extremely overdone steak, AS WELL as the blood from when it was previously not cooked to my liking. If I have a problem with rare steaks why would you serve me anything over blood?! Makes no sense. I wouldn't go back if they paid me or offered me the free steak. read more

Jasper's - Burned steak that the joke of a Manager named Miguel thought was acceptable to serve a PAYING customer. - American Near Me - Upper Marlboro, Maryland

This was our first time at Jasper's. We are traveling for my daughter's track meet and decided to eat dinner here. It was a great atmosphere and the food was amazing. What I loved most about the venue is that it seemed to be the "place to be" for African American folks. Everyone was having a good time, eating, talking and watching the game. I ordered a seafood platter with fried shrimp and scallops. My husband had a jerk speciality platter. It was great. We are due back in town a few weeks from now for another meet and I can't wait to go back. Thanks for great food, great staff and great conversation. read more

This review has nothing to do with food. Stopped by on a Friday since it has been awhile since I visited Jaspers. Food was great, I ordered additional menu items to take home. Unfortunately, after driving back home my daughter pointed out her wings were missing. I called back spoke with "the manager" she stated I had to bring my order back in. I explained I lived in Ft Wash. and it didn't make since would they credit my account- no. I hung up and proceeded to pack up items and return but said I'll try again. Called back and spoke with another manager she took my table number/ receipt number and additional info and stated she would credit my card the $12(rounded). Well as of today- my bank account still reflects a total bill of $140. As I stated before I am working to patronize my community/ County.... for this I've crossed this one off my list. I can support another business closer to my home. Very disappointed. read more

There is NO reason to come here except for happy hour! BUT, the happy hour here is *consistently* FRIGGING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Get in where you fit in and get your grub on the best happy hour food for value in the DMV. read more

I def wasn't planning on going here on the night I was there! However, I had a great time watching the games and having drinks with my bros. The happy hour appetizer and drink specials are very good! I had an amazing shrimp and crab dip as well as one of the bros had a shrimp and crab cocktail. The food was pretty good bar food! And I was surprised by the strength of my drink. I consider myself a lightweight when it comes to alcohol and I don't know what the young lady did to the drink I ordered, but it was super strong. That totally surprised me given that it was happy hour and that is usually not the case! It was super crowded in there! Clearly it is a hot spot in the evenings! You can have a good time with the right people, but be prepared for the crowds of people! read more

Brunch-great for when you just want to fill up on decent food. The pound cake and pound cake-like cornbread is delish if you're a big bread eater like moi. The fried fish (when they have it) is great when it first comes out as well as the fried chicken. There's an omelette station as well. There's usually a wait on Sundays because of the after-church crowd so the earlier the better. read more

This place looks like club when you walk in. Pretty cool looking actually. I wonder what it used to be before it was Jaspers..... Pros: -The bread (the dark one) is absolutely delish! -Drinks were good -I havent been there specifically for happy hour, but the bar is ALWAYS packed and seems like its poppin all the time. -The first time I came I had Jamabalaya with Rice--It was sooooooooooooooo freakin good. Second time, it was meh... aight. Maybe I was starving the first time? idk. -If you dont try anything else, make sure to try the sweet potato casserole. WHAT????? sigh.... orgasmic. Cons: -Parking. There are 2 other restaurants in the same vicinity, so evenings and weekends are a nightmare to park. -Took a while for servers to come around. I think it was because it was so crowded. Loud, Lively, I'd say Good for a 2nd date or night out with friends. read more

My party of three went for lunch on a Friday. My daughter ordered a side of fries and showed me what looked like a fried pork chop in it. I asked for the manager to show him. I questioned if the policy was to share grease since two out of the three people in my party did not eat pork. The manager's response was, "When busy we do decide to cross fry but that does not look like pork... It looks like old chicken that has just been in the fryer a long time. (THAT MAKES IT SO MUCH BETTER!!!)I can order you another side of fries if you want." "UMMMM SHE WILL PASS!!) My daughter no longer wanted the fries and I felt the very least he could have done was taken them off the bill but I was having a great day and decided to just let it go. (HAD IT BEEN A MORE EXPENSIVE ITEM ON THE MENU I MAY HAVE HAD TO LET HIM HAVE IT) My server left me a note with his name and number on it. I am not sure if he was just working for a great tip or I am just that f'ing sexy. I chose to go with the second. Service was was good...... Food was good.... Blah Blah Blah.... GOOD read more

The atmosphere is AMAZING! Love the venue, the food and drinks are delicious. The only thing that sucks at times is the parking but that just goes to show how popular the restaurant is. I've gone at least four times in the past two months! read more

I was here for drinks and appetizers with a group of co workers. We were celebrating work accomplishments and getting to know each other. Atmosphere: B This place is clean and has a nice casual bar-like feel. Crowd was friendly. I could do without the mirrored walls, though. Service: F We were a group of 8 and our waiter just couldn't keep it together. We arrived as a group of 4 and then more people were arriving to total a party of 8. He never came to take our drink order when more people arrived and was just plain clumsy! My co workers each had 2 drinks before he came down to our side of the table to take our orders. The service was VERY slow and inaccurate. He kept putting the appetizers at the wrong side of the table. Food: C I had boneless chicken wings and calamari. The calamari batter was tasteless and the calamari was very rubbery. The boneless wings were okay but one of the sauces tasted off. You can tell that this food is frozen and then fried. It's nothing really special. Drinks: F I ordered a mango coconut martini. It looked beautiful until I picked up the glass - it was plastic! The stem of the glass was cruddy and I didn't want to be picky in front of my co workers, so I sipped the drink and hoped I wouldn't get sick from a dirty glass. The drink was SOOOO sweet and I wasn't even sure if the vodka was even in it! YUCK. If we come back in town for a work event, I will definitely suggest somewhere else! read more

Tiger wings and crab dip is all you need with the strong drinks they serve here. If you're looking for a meal try the salmon and a friend of mine swears by the salmon burger. When you come sit by the bar or for a quieter evening sit at a table on the outside. Perfect place to go on a first time date. read more

Hmm, the service was slow and my wings were fatty and subpar, to be honest :( But on the upside: the restaurant LOOKS nice, and the free bread they give you is soooo good. I mean, it's amazingly good--especially with a little butter. The cheesecake I tasted off of my bf's plate was pretty decent. I may try this place again. For now, I just consider it average. And it should NOT take 30-40 minutes to get 8-10 wings, seriously. read more

Jasper's is great I love the crab explosion get the dearth Vader or the after party I love the ambiance here and I love you don't have a bunch of stuck up white people walking around serving just to get good service. You get GREAT service here and it's a chill spot! Happy New Year Bitches lol read more

Damien J was a great server! I've been going to Jasper's for a long time (since I was little) and his service is one of the best I've had. He showed that he cared, gave service updates, and was very friendly. Thank you Damien J. read more

I went on a Sunday and arrived at 6pm. The party that I was with was about 15 people. They did not seat up because 2 people had not arrived yet. We tried to warn them that more people would come if they didn't seat up and the group ended up being 20 people. However because the service was extremely slow 10 didn't order ANYTHING. People were seated before us and they arrived 45minutes after we did. We sat down an hour later and they place wasn't packed. I had not been back to this spot since it was the BET Sound Stage opening night. No one orderd appizters and after hearing the food wasn't good most orders drinks. I orders a cup (yes...a cup) of lobster whatever..... I was one of the last to get it and it was luke warm with what tasted like some one tried to fool me with crab meat in a lobster soup. Needless to say I didn't order dessert. The only thing to order hear is drinks, from the bar that is. read more

I've given Jasper's more than one try and to date I still can't give them more than 2 stars and I'm being nice doing that. I went yesterday for brunch and while I didn't order brunch it appears to have been a hit for the others in my party. I will say its reasonably priced $18/adults which isn't bad and it appears to have a variety of foods...meaning there's something for everyone on the brunch menu. I realize the place was crowded...cool, but when you sit down and the waitress doesn't come near your table for 15 minutes that's not a good sign, but ok we stay because we didn't feel like driving to another restaurant. So the waitress finally come to the table and take our drink and food order...well....15 more minutes we still didn't have drinks, flatware or napkins. Now at this point I'm like ARE YOU KIDDING ME...but hey I'm thinking its crowded so I let it go. We finally get our drinks and flatware so we're like ok cool. I think this is what really threw me off...we ordered Mimosa's...and I'm not sure about you all...but I've never had a mimosa with a glass full of ice. Ok really...when did they start putting ice in mimosa's? We asked for another w/o the ice and OMG they brought us a glass with 1/4 of it filled with champagne & orange juice...now we know what all the ice was necessary so it would appear you had a good amount of drink. The only reason I'm giving this review 2 stars is I ordered the lobster bisque soup and IT WAS GOOD. Will I go here again...no...I've given Jasper's too many tries to get it right so I've informed people I know if you're having a gathering at Jasper's I WILL NOT BE IN ATTENDANCE. read more

Really nice affordable place to eat & drink.Classy atmosphere.will be goin back soon.really really big Restaurant

Jaspers was a good spot to go to. Had a little wait when we saw alot of empty tables. Got some drinks Tito and cranberry which really didnt taste like Titos. We ordered buffalo wings and honey wings and fries. The wings were very good but the ranch dressing had a weird taste. I would recommend this place for families read more

If I'm in the area while it's still happy hour and I feel like having a 20 oz. margarita, then I'll be back. The food is alright, the service is mediocre, but a 20 oz. margarita after a very hard day is all I'm after. read more

Just came back from Jaspers to watch my beloved Giants play the Eagles (don't ask me how that game turned out :( Was our second choice after the crowds at another place kepts us away. Sat at the bar since our main intention was to watch the game. It was in the height of brunch time but the food and people were moving steadily and it actually wasn't packed. Had a salmon caesar salad (minus the bacon) for lunch and sat and watched the game with a friend. The salad was pretty good, well as far as caesar's go. I'm not generally a caesar fan, but wanted a salad that was filling with enough to last me for a couple of hours. Yeah after that salad don't even know if I need to eat dinner tonight. Was a good atmosphere in my opinion. Folks around the bar were chatty but it wasn't so much noise that I couldn't concentrate. The bartenders were friendly and efficient, and got my food out speedily. I actually preferred this venue, since I wasn't in the mood for a whole lot of trash talking, yet wasn't in the mood to watch the game from home. My friend had the brunch (which I've had before) She thought it was great, didn't feel for breakfast food this time. The last time I had brunch there, it was uh, ok. Nothing to rave about although I liked that there was a lot on the selection bar. So Jaspers isn't my "oooh I have a taste for Jaspers" kinda place. I just don't think the food is all that great. But its ok, and for a place to catch the game in a semi social semi quiet location, it works for me! read more

Awesome food, customer service, atmosphere, the whole 9! I will absolutely be recommending to family and friends. We had the crab dip and calamari as appetizers, and the salmon and crab explosion, and some type of Caribbean dish as our meals. Everything was great! read more

Brunch was pretty good. They have different stations for breakfast, soul food, desserts and fruit, and meat. I would recommend it

Good morning Mr. Philip M. The night that we had the party was on January 18, 2018 we check in around 8:30 p.m. We had a party of about 11 or more. The server was 1199 Dashawn. And as we were leaving I took my concerns to the manager that was on duty and she basically told sometime it happens, really to me she didn't even care at all. read more

Horrible..... is an understatement... decided to meet a few friends here for HH after work since moving to the new hospital (UMCRH). Worst decision ever. After waiting for over 45 minutes we finally received our appetizers (warm no less) so clearly they have been sitting out. Still waiting on water after ONE HOUR. WATER... manager finally came over (not sure why) ad he was unapologetic, but finally agreed to comp our drink- ONE DRINK, however since HH is over the others (regular price) is on US... I cannot believe how this place has gone down hill. It's such a shame, knowing the new hospital is here and we are always looking for a place to have luncheons and meetings... THIS WILL NOT BE IT... so close but yet so FAR read more

So today I hosted my sorority sisters 34th birthday party at Jasper's. I originally was only gonna give one star however things progressively got better, thanks to Aisha, Tayo and Mike ( the night manager). Originally I had spoken to Miguel and he was very matter of Fact, rude and just wasn't trying to work with me or my group. Every question I asked was answered with, the night is sold out, there are 4 other parties tonight (25 or more ppl) and we can not accommodate you. After a little more discussion, I asked if I came in 2 hrs before my party time, would I be able to get the tables by the bar if they were open. He said yes but was still very negative about those tables being available. Fast forward.... Got to Jasper's @ 3:45 pm. Was able to hold 3 tables that held 6 ppl each (18). Tayo and Aisha were amazing. My group was very needy and had them all over the place. They did not fret or stumble. They were extremely attentive and went over and beyond the call of duty. I even contacted Mike to tell him about it. I also had to call Mike over due to another matter with a rather nasty waitress however he took care of the issue quickly and efficiently. No one In my party even knew what was happening. I definitely recommend anyone to go to Jasper's and ask for either Tayo or Aisha, their phenomenal and if you want an attentive manager that doesn't make excuses or will take care of your problem, Mike is your man!!!! Thanks guys for a job well Done!!! read more

I've been here a few times. A cool place to go to instead of the club on a late night. The food is good and so is the crowd.

Great spot to hang with friends or go on a date, enjoying great drinks and good food. The menu offers a good variety of choices. The prices are not the cheapest but they do strive to produce high quality dishes. read more

Today's visit has been one of the best experiences I have ever had at this restaurant. First, the renovations they made were great! More open floor space and seating around the bar! My waiter, Stephon, approached me while waiting for spaces to open up at the bar and offered to have me seated at one of his tables (in the new section) while I waited on my guest and bring me a drink. After I sat down, he came over with my beer and took my food order which came out quickly. He was funny and very personable. After the food came out, he came over shortly after to make sure we had everything we needed to enjoy the food. He made several stops to refill our drinks as well. I noticed him engaging all of his tables with conversation and laughter. I come here frequently and have had a few less than stellar experiences, but the fun atmosphere & tiger wings keep me and my friends coming back. I am so glad Jaspers has brought on someone who cares so much about taking excellent care of his customers. I will be sure to ask for him whenever I visit! read more

Went for happy hour with friends... We sat in the bar area, it was clean the food came out fast and was fresh. Our waiter Joe (From Flint, MI.) was awesome. Joe took really good care of us. Definitely gonna ask to be seated in Joe section when I return. read more

This place came highly recommended by the staff @ the Doubletree hotel I was staying at. Went there around 8p Saturday night and the host tells me it'll be a 30min wait. Ok no problem. But there was a problem bc ppl tht came AFTER me got their tables BEFORE us! So I asked the host what's goin on & he tells me there's 8 ppl in front of me! HOW!!! Anyway I ended up leaving & going to Copper Canyon & had a great time! read more

First and probably last time coming back. The brunch direction is sub-par; fruit wasn't fresh and most of the breakfast items were not good to me...except the waffles. My dining companions were in agreement. However, it was well stocked. They also don't offer unlimited mimosas or even an option to order a pitcher Our waiter wasn't that attentive, to the point where we decided to help clear our own dishes. Granted we were a large group, but c'Mon son! It wasn't that busy The biggest issue I had were the employees... We were seated near the kitchen and a lot of the employees came out of the back and chatted loudly near our table. No bueno Jasper's tries to give off an "old school glamour vibe", but honestly it just seemed a bit dated to me. There are so many other places with better food. read more

Their food is always really good. I would've given them more stars but this particular experience warrented 2 stars. Ok so, the waitress was less then friendly she did not have an attitude however...no smile, no customer service skills. That was bad enough but, to top it off the resturant had a company come in to reupholster the chairs during dinner time so while we were eating all we kept hearing was the sound of an air gun while they were stapling the upholstery back to the chairs it was so annoying OMG I cannot believe they had construction going on during restaurant hours, unbelievable only in certain of neighborhoods this would happen. read more
