My colleagues and I were obsessed, as was everyone else! Now it's just...average. Not sure if trying döner and shawarma made me feel like gyro is just a knock-off, or the quality went down, or I just don't like it anymore...but their prices are fair. There is ample parking. It doesn't taste bad. It's just...kinda average when compared to other options. Sad this day has come, because I really did love them way back when. In fact, I was a supporter. I also had nothing to compare it to, so maybe that's why. Oh well.

They were very stingy with the everything toppings, literally a couple of pieces of lettuce, barely any, so scarce that I thought they forgot to put them on there. The steak was bland and lacked seasoning. For the up charge for the double meat, the amount that you got and the limited amount of toppings this really missed a mark. Wings I got the soy garlic sauce, I liked that it was a light sauce. The wings were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. For the price, I was not expecting very small party wings like my fingers were longer than some of those wings. I get that it's Silver Spring, however, the price point should match the quality and portions. Well, this place didn't feed my soul; perhaps it does yours.

We ordered our beers, wings and LA galbi bowl. The spicy soy wings were nicely flavored with enough kick that I ordered another 10 wings to bring home. My friend Danielle ordered the sweet and spicy which she could have devoured but decided to keep some to bring home. The other gal order the LA galbi bowl with runny egg - she devoured it too and it is new to the menu. We were a little disappointed that they have removed the ramen to the menu - that is why it is scored as 4 star. The person manning the bar was pretty attentive. Mike's is just a comfortable place to catch up with friends - not busy or crowded! Highly recommend their Korean Chicken Wings!

They're the hardest working group of people I've seen in any restaurant, and if I could give 10 stars I would. Thank you guys for being awesome!!

You may sit and eat or order take out. They have quite a few tables and booths for seating. They also have a small convenience store section where you may grab a few Latin snacks and sweets. If you haven't been here you should definitely do so.

However, the minus star is for charging an additional 6% food tax on top of the already 6% Maryland tax. A lot of places are asking you if you want the receipt and sometimes I used to say no. Because it's just another piece of paper I thought to save from the environment. But I'm beginning to get it printed because I'm finding out that some places are charging additional taxes. Plus occasionally I give tips on them charging me these additional taxes. Be informed of what places are charging you if it matters to you.
