I visited Myste for a private event, and while the space itself is very aesthetically pleasing, the…read moreoverall experience was disappointing, mainly due to the food and service. The lounge is on the smaller side, which actually worked well for the event and gave it an intimate vibe. The owner was also very nice and welcoming, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. The menu is extremely limited, and you pretty much have to piece together a meal from a few items. I ordered the jollof rice and six-piece chicken wings. The wings were overpriced, overcooked, and had no flavor at all. The only options were sauces on the side (honey, ranch, or blue cheese), and when I specifically asked for honey drizzled on top with blue cheese on the side, that request wasn't followed. Even more frustrating, our server never came back to check on us or make sure everything was okay. The jollof rice was honestly the worst part. Instead of that rich, smoky flavor you'd expect, it tasted burnt with a harsh charcoal aftertaste. I've had jollof rice many times before, and this was nowhere close. I ended up sending it back. Because I was hungry, I forced myself to eat the wings, even though they were dry and lacked flavor. Overall, Myste Lounge has a nice look and potential, but the food and service really need improvement. A revamped menu and better attention to guests would make a huge difference.

DMV, if you're looking for bomb honey lemon pepper wings, strong drinks, good music, karaoke…read morepractically any night of the week AND somewhere chill without driving into DC, you need to visit The Hideout--a dive bar located in Laurel, MD! The Hideout has been around for years, so if you know, you know! The prices are pricing, and y'all know I love a good deal. Friday and Saturday nights tend to be the busiest, but it's also a cool spot to stop by during the week after work. Karaoke is five nights a week--every night except Tuesday and Thursday--and happy hour is Monday through Friday from 3-7 p.m., with discounted wings, sliders and drinks. And for my sugar babies looking for their next piece of sugar, you might want to check them out too. You know they got moniesssss out Howard County! Now, distance-wise, this one might not be for everybody. It's on the Howard County side of Laurel, so if you know your tags are dead, don't come--you will get bagged! #dmvrestaurants #laurelmd #dmvnightlife #karaokenight #foodtiktok

I…read moreinstantly noted that this place was a daily local favorite and most patrons were interacting with a high level of familiarity. The energy level is high, with pool tables through out and sports talk in abundance ( definitely a great environment to watch a game !! ) I sat at the bar area and was greeted with respect and professionalism. The bartenders here are awesome and they come with wicked pours.... Yes !!! Drinks here are absolutely on point and not for the faint of heart. Now what floored me, was how good the chicken tenders were ( which is the dish I opted for ) I'm talking best ever tenders talk for sure... not too greasy, but crispy, tender with the perfect sauce. And the fries were seasoned to perfection ( like... really good ! ) I'm already planning a cool Football Sunday outing during the season here... See you soon Hideout !!! FYI: the 5-stars are very fitting when you compare this spot to others in the same category ( cool, down to earth, lively with a lot of moving pieces and lit !! )

The ambiance is on the dimmer side but lively due to the music spun by the dj. We were seated by the bar which I didn't care for (lots of kitchen traffic) but the staffers were very attentive to our needs. We ordered jollof rice and suya which was just okay, the rice could've used some more seasoning and spice. We enjoyed ourselves as the dj was playing all the feel good Afrobeats songs. I would visit again but mainly for vibes and drinks.

A TIME WAS HAD!…read more Love, love, LOVE Skyvibe. My girls and I wanted to check out a new happy hour spot, and we decided on Skyvibe. The first floor was a little small, but cute with a black interior, photo op area, clean bathrooms, and an upstairs we didn't get to check out. We mixed between the main menu and the $5 after 5 list and got the meat pie, chicken skewers, spring rolls, beef bites and yam with fish stew dip. Every single dish was fantastic either crispy or tender respectively, savory, and seasoned to perfection! Highly recommend the chicken skewers and carrot cake (carrot cake not pictured as it was devoured on the spot). The only con of the night was waiting a long time for our food, but the servers themselves were amazing (shoutout to KB, our awesome waiter and mixologist), the food was worth the wait, and they definitely kept us entertained in the interim with karaoke night on a Tuesday. Melissa and the Dj warmed up the crown with banger after banger, and before long everyone joined in. It was an absolute blast to be a part of and we will definitely return! If you're looking for a weekday pick-me-up, this is the place to be!!

Perry's Restaurant: The Search for a Great Crabcake…read more Takeaway: The food was outstanding, the service was great, and the website descriptions were so vague I felt like I was ordering mystery boxes. Mom had a craving for a crabcake, and when Mom gets a craving, the mission becomes official. We decided to order from Perry's Restaurant, a spot we both remembered having great food -- even if those memories were doing all the heavy lifting during this ordering process. I went to their website to place the order, and that's when the chaos began. The Website: The Guessing Game Begins I clicked on the Chef Salad.The description?"Chef Salad."That's it.No ingredients. No hints. No clues. Just vibes. Then I checked the Broiled Seafood Platter.Again -- nothing.No list of seafood. No details. No warnings. No "may contain fish you've never heard of." I was ordering blind, hoping I liked whatever showed up and praying I wasn't allergic to any of the mystery items. If we didn't already know Perry's food was outstanding, we would've abandoned the mission right there. But we pushed on. We ordered: Broiled Seafood Platter with coleslaw Two Crabcake Platters with French fries Chef Salad with Tuna Salad Pickup: The Alexa Experience I arrived at Perry's and met Alexa, who was friendly, engaging, and patient -- the exact opposite of the website. She answered all my questions, gave me suggestions for next time, and even grabbed extra tartar sauce (for a fee ). The food smelled so good that Mom and I peeked inside the containers in the car.Bad idea.We started eating the fries on the way home. They were very good -- the kind of fries that make you forget you're supposed to wait until you get home. The Food: The Redemption Once home, we opened everything up. Broiled Seafood Platter It contained: One crabcake Scallops Clams Shrimp One piece of unknown fish (still delicious) Everything was fresh, tasty, and cooked perfectly. Double Crabcakes Smaller than I remembered, but cooked beautifully and full of flavor. Chef Salad with Tuna Salad Good, with a generous amount of tuna.I could've used more tomatoes, but overall solid. Coleslaw Outstanding.The kind of coleslaw that makes you rethink your relationship with cabbage. Final Verdict Perry's Restaurant delivered: Outstanding food Outstanding service Outstanding staff Terrible website dish descriptions We'll definitely be returning -- and hopefully next time the online ordering system tells me what I'm actually ordering.
