Inside
Hali Y.

This is a clean and cute quick eats place. We just got a tuna kimbap to go but the inside is very bright and airy. I would say the kimbap is much lighter compared to most traditional ones, but we liked it. Service was great, there was a Korean (I think?) uncle there who greeted us with a big smile, and the other staff was great and offered us water while we waited for our to go order.

Seafood tofu soup
Lydia C.

New and cozy restaurant that serves homemade Korean food! My husband and I were interested in a quick lunch, and we saw that this place was newly opened. The restaurant is small, but has cozy vibes with simple but neat decor. The owner himself is a kindly Korean grandpa and he greeted us and talked to us for a while, he also seems to be the main chef. I started off with the steamed shrimp dumplings which I really enjoyed as they were stuffed with shrimp and had a nice, thin dumpling skin. I also ordered the seafood soondubu tofu soup and my husband ordered the chicken bulgolgi. The soondubu had large chunks of tofu and a diversity of seafood, but maybe it could have had a bit more seafood. My husband also enjoyed his chicken bulgolgi and said it was very juicy and fresh without being too oily. I appreciated the pleasant and friendly service from the owner and I liked that the parking was easy and convenient, we plan to be back soon!

Bulgogi kimbap.

Went back for lunch today. It's that kind of place. If you are in the area, you owe it to yourself to stop and try this lovely restaurant.

Bulgogi kimbap

Small spot, big flavor. Bulgogi kimbap was amazing, perfectly balanced with fillings. Would definitely come again.

Yay! It's open!

(TLDR: All-around YAY in every way! A big 'Woo-hoo!' too! :-D) Exciting new restaurant in Rockville! What a fresh, clean, inviting and open space decorated by someone who clearly has a high aesthetic sensibility .... The hearty portions of food are delicious, served saucily (with sauce on the side) with a smile. Everyone here is so nice! There is plenty of parking nearby, including disability-marked spots and there is also a ramp to get up, with a large door to get in. What's really amazing about this place is how large it feels -- from the outside, it seems so small but once inside, it opens up magically into a world of tasty, healthy meals ... and a selection of frozen desserts one may peruse through the glass door of the freezer case by the counter, where food is ordered before being brought cheerily to one of the four white tables. The chairs, walls, and floor all being white adds to the feeling of increased space where once it was so crowded .... What a transformation, wow! Of course, this particular portion of this review won't apply to anyone who hasn't been in this space before but for those who have, wow! Just wow! It could be said to be very minimalist -- reduced to the absolute essentials ... with a few added extras for maximum yumminess and enjoyment! The framed art on the walls is most especially pleasing to the eye for those who appreciate such things -- and the beautiful-yet-simple, down-to-Earth placemats all come together to create a visually unique and special dining experience -- before the filling food even arrives .... Satiation is achieved in the most satisfying way possible -- for both stomach and eyes ... and also heart! One most special item is the small Korean pancake -- unusual because it's normally only available in a rather large size, so this is very different! It's just one of the things that distinguishes this particular Korean eating spot from other Korean restaurants in the area. This one is more health-focussed, with ... I hesitate to say this (not to dis on other places or the people there!), but the higher level of English available here really does help a lot. There is less room for miscommunication when ordering -- a very important distinction! It is really not fun to find out you've eaten something you specifically said you didn't want to receive, and only figure this out once it's too late! Lessening the chances of that is wonderful! No promises being made here about this but it seems that ordering in Spanish would also be a possibility ... and depending on the day and time, perhaps another language as well. To me, this is ideal and so fun! The food and art are specifically Korean but in some ways, it's more worldly than that ... so you really are stepping into another world when you come here! (Or rolling, of course, if that's how you arrive.) K Bap Express did take a bit of time to open -- but it's totally been worth the wait! The selection, kindness, and heart-expanding décor together provide room for a much-needed rest in many ways .... The visual interest so very well tended-to gives the eyes a way to eat and be nourished, as well .... There is something for every part of a patron to love! The presentation of the food is delightful, so you can soak it in before indulging ... and leave filled with nutrition for your stomach, eyes, heart, and soul .... Apologies if I have gushed repetitively about certain stand-out virtues of this place! It's just so deserving, I haven't been able to help myself! I hope you try it and love it as much as I do!

Each dish that we ordered was oily and bland, without sauces or spices. It was all pretty bad

Great dinner spot for American comfort food, tucked away in Park Potomac!…read more My family and I decided to try this restaurant on a whim, and it didn't disappoint! We were seated promptly, even without reservations, and our server gave us excellent recommendations within minutes of being seated. We tried the grapefruit and hibiscus homemade sodas, which were so refreshing and very unique. For starters, we ordered the cornbread, and fig and olive bread. Both were delicious and served nice and warm. Our entrees included the poke bowl and chicken and waffles, which is pictured below. The chicken and waffles were a standout, and I highly recommend to try this! We were overall very pleased with our service and food, and plan to be back!

We came with a party of 16+ and our waitress was Ruth. She handled orders on my end of the table…read moreand she did a phenomenal job!!! She continued to check on us periodically and gave us a beautiful experience. We all ordered a lot of food and everything was delicious. We were on the second floor upstairs and everyone I was with loved their food and service. We had another waiter down the other end but I didn't know his name, he did an amazing job too on the other end of our table. Both Ruth and the other waiter gave us an amazing experience. Thank you Founding Farmers. You have an amazing crew with Ruth she went above and beyond for us. We are thankful for her and the other waiter for our table!! Even though we were such a big party, we felt very comfortable and homey. Thank you again very much!!!!

Glenwood delivered that excellent dinner this week and it deserves all the stars I can muster up. I had the Ahi Tuna Salad. Delicious, fresh, crispy, and with some of the best sushi-grade tuna I have ever put in my mouth. It was a great entree salad and this is the 2nd time I have had it. You know what, there will definitely be a 3rd time too. But, the diva of this meal was definitely what my spouse got. The incredible, edible rotisserie chicken pot pie!!! OMG this dish was crazy good, so good that I wish I had made it. The crust was the best crust I have ever had in my entire life bar none. It was crisp, flavorful and a little bit doughy. Its taste was great all by itself. But let there be no doubt - the filling was top notch too. Creamy, luxurious with crisp, fresh vegetables and big hunks of rotisserie chicken. It was the BEST! Thank God my spouse shared some with me because it was life changing (ok maybe that's a bit dramatic but you get my drift). The service matched the food. Erika was our server. She was so bubbly, friendly, helpful, smart and hard working. Glenwood is not a haute cuisine restaurant but the service we got from Erika matched the best restaurant service anywhere. That woman can do anything anywhere. I would hire her in a minute. Glenwood is one of those places that has hit its stride and I'm damn glad that I stumbled upon it. I highly recommend - NO - I demand that you go to Glenwood immediately. You will not be disappointed.

What do you do on a cool rainy Sunday morning? You go for brunch at First Watch and boy, was it…read morecrowded. We were actually celebrating a friend's birthday. Once we were seated, our waiter was excellent. He had a great personality and was very accommodating. The restaurant has both high top tables, booths, and tables for four. I really like how they advertise their seasonal specials on the chalkboard on the wall. We both got the strawberry Tres leches French toast. The French toast was good and all of the seasonal fruit was delicious. I will definitely come back. Just remember to get on their waitlist, before you come.

Visited this location for Sunday Brunch and was surprised at the short wait time to be seated,…read moreseeing as how it was a Sunday morning!! The hostess was very inviting and welcoming, she did an amazing job with being aware of the seating and which tables were checking out. It was well managed and organized, quite impressive honestly! Once we were seated, our server offered us drinks and took our order. Again, didn't take too long to get our orders in nor receive our drinks and food. The food portions were very nice and worth the price!! I ordered the seasonal pumpkin pancakes and my Aunt ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes. These pancakes literally could feed a family! They were humongous!! And quite flavorful, I might add. The lemon curd was perfectly balanced and could be offered as a dessert on its own! The pumpkin pancake was nice and fluffy, could've used a little more pumpkin flavor but the color was great. The eggs were seasoned perfectly, nice and fluffy, and the chicken maple sausage was quite tasty. The purple haze is my forever favorite drink, the butterfly pea flower tea and a hint of lavender are such a delight for the tastebuds! We also had the pumpkin donuts to go. Again, the pumpkin flavor was a little faint but the crème anglaise dipping sauce made up for that!! We enjoyed our meals, there was plenty leftover to take home and share
