I absolutely love the concept of food halls! I have a friend that lives in the building and I met her for happy hour one evening to catch up over drinks. This was the perfect location for such an occasion because we also were able to participate in trivia night. The service, drinks and people at the bar were amazing as were all of the food items we had including wings from Soko Butcher. It was definitely a vibe and I'm so jealous my friend has the convenience of a bar and multiple food options a mere few feet from her door.

Cupcake Pinot Grigio
Capri L.

Hey friends! I was so excited to meet some other Yelpers at Solaire Social for an unofficial holiday get together. I heard great things about it from TikTok. Solaire Social is a chic food hall offering multicultural culinary delights. We sat at the bar. And indulged in their happy hour. I asked the bartender to surprise me with a white wine. He brought me a Cupcake Pinot Grigio($7HH). Yummmm! I decided on pizza for dinner. I ordered the Don Queso pizza($13) via the QR code and the pizza came out within 15 minutes. The pizza was okay. I would've preferred a crunchier crust. And the cheese was very salty. The portion is great for the price. Next time I'll probably try a different food option at Solaire Social. Service was amazing! I was greeted warmly approaching the bar by Nick, our bartender. He was very attentive and social. Interior is large and vibrant. There was a group of friends enjoying a game of ping pong inside. Parking is limited and paid. This is a great happy-hour, link up with friends type of spot. And Silver Spring has so much to offer within a few miles. Enjoy! With love, The Picky Pescatarian

Fried chicken sandwich
Kim P.

Have tried solaire twice with two separate friend groups. The food options are great, though pricey. I like the wings, the pizza was good and both were very fast. The cocktails were good. I didn't care for the chicken sandwich was was basically tenders on a bun with an indistinguishable sauce. The vibe is clean and nice. Big windows looking out on a trail. I find it enough to be a decent spot to go eat, though their business model is to charge a "common fee" for the activities they run, which is not only annoying in the fee sense, they were using amplified sound for bingo, which we weren't playing and yet we couldn't seem to avoid. If you're going to charge a fee, can I at least NOT have to yell for my friend to hear me over dinner? Additionally, the bartender wouldn't let us open a tab unless we sat at the bar during our first visit. So we had like 3 different charges for one dinner. Second time they seemed to have resolved this and allowed us to just keep our tab open, but strange.

We had a great time here. So happy to have this food court in our neighborhood. We got the orange crush and watermelon crush and both were delicious. There were plenty of places to sit, nice sunlight and a pool table! For food we tried the kati roll wala and sushi. We got the plant based protein bowl, chicken naan pizza and masala fries. I liked the masala fries best. Pizza was okay and the protein bowl was good. I'm going to try the actual kati roll next time since Kati rolls are the original delicacy of the business. The owners were wonderful. The sushi was okay, but I'll give it another shot in the future. Looking forward to spending more time here for good vibes and convenience.

Mimosa

This place is awesome. The vibes are amazing, and service is outstanding There's so many options for food and social activities. I came today and enjoyed a mimosa and a game of pool. Always a good time here.

This is the newest food hall on the scene that is located in right off of Georgia Avenue in Silver Spring, MD. The food options available take you on a world tour of different cuisines that range from Brazilian to African. I methodically made my way through each restaurant and was quickly transfixed by the shucking of oysters being prepared at Soko Oysters. I quickly beelined to the counter to order a 1/2 dozen. These were some of the freshest oysters I had in a while and instantly regretted not ordering more. I rounded out my food tour by trying the African inspired ice cream flavors from Shuga x Ice. I tried a scoop of tea & bread which was then topped with a generous topping of Chin Chin, a fried cookie popular in Nigeria.

Amala; the Nigerian Restaurant

An impressive variety of flavorful dishes that cater to every palate and craving. Plenty of tasty menu options that hit the spot whether you're craving comfort or trying something new.

Cute food hall with a lot of different options and good amount of seating! I've only been once so can only speak to one of the restaurants admittedly, but I had the pizza and didn't really enjoy it. It said wood fired, but had none of the char you would expect. The cheese also wasn't really heated enough to not just be kind of a glob. I'm giving three still because there are so many other options and have heard from the friends I went with that they are better especially the BBQ, but I wouldn't get the pizza again.

Tuna Poke from Manna Sushi
Kenneth K.

My wife and I are so glad to be next door neighbors of Solaire Social (we live at Solaire 1150 Ripley) and we are excited to try all the wonderful places there. We've only tried the bar for the Nepenthe stout which was an affordable price of only $7 and the bartender was very fast and friendly as well as the amazing Manna Sushi for lunch this past week. We look forward to trying all the other diverse vendors. The staff including the bartender and Manna Sushi's staff are all very friendly and there is wonderful and ample seating in this spacious food hall.

Chicken Kati roll and "masala" fries
Hitakshi S.

The actual place is beautiful - plenty of seating and a good variety of food options. Tried the Kati roll and "masala" fries this time and wow, it was beyond disappointing. The chicken in the Kati roll was borderline cold and there was no masala on the fries.. they were just regular fries. Maybe it was an off day, but I don't think I'd try it again. Might opt for something else if I go back

So much potential in this spot. I was in the area getting a cut when I noticed this place next door and asked if it was open to all...this food court sits in the main area of the apartment complex. There's ample seating, outlets, views, and plenty of food options. There's even a pool table in case you need a second to yourself lol. I was shocked...I was surprised this placed wasn't packed as it was lunch time. Silver spring is a tough market...so many different options. I believe if this food court had free parking or at least validated you may see a nice lunch crowd. Great place for meeting a large group...or even a group of two or three. I tried the picanha, rice, and farofa....the farofa wasn't my fave but I was trying something new...didn't matter because upon receiving the restaurant provided beans as well because I think she had a feeling I wasn't going to like it lol. Can't wait to try some of the other food options

Shrimp shumai, crunchy spicy crab, crunchy spicy salmon, margarita
Christine R.

I love that a food hall has come to DTSS! The evenings turn into a whole vibe, especially Fridays. I've gotten Manna Sushi each time- always fresh and flavorful. I get the spicy crunchy tuna, crab, and sometimes shrimp shumai. The first time I came, the server at the counter forgot who ordered and my food sat for a little until I finally went up to ask if it was mine. She said she didn't recognize me...it had been 5 min. She's been fine the other times I've come though. I've also gotten the African ice cream at Shuga x Ice. I sampled a couple, but liked the Tea + Bread most. The bar has great music and sometimes a live DJ. The bar is still getting it together- a few bartenders who seem to just be learning how to make drinks. They're all friendly though! I just really want more people to get to know this space because it has a lot of potential. I would love to see a place that does Latin food.

By the way no on seconds on the meat, but wink wink, they'll give you more. So we decided to try happy hour at the bar. We both got burgers, and decided to split at order of chicken drum sticks. Let me tell you up front, their humongous burger feeds 2. It it delicious, with sauce,cheese,lettuce, tomato and a side of of crispy parmesan polenta fries. You dip them in this fiery hot sauce, and let them take you places. So great burger but too big for one, and the drumsticks had a great spice going as well. Our happy hour drinks were passionate caipirinha that was a lovely blend, not too sweet, but like so many drinks, it comes with too much ice so it's a lot less drink than it looks. Still, good eating, good price, good service, just order less, cause yiu can always order more later.

Oh, I can't believe I didn't leave a review for the spot, even though I've been a few times though!…read moreIt's been a while, but man are they delicious. I would describe them as a combination of classic and elevated Latin food. The vibe of the restaurant is very casual, but the presentation of many of the dishes takes it to another level. They also have a wide selection of beer and wine. I have had tacos, octopus, breakfast tacos, and tamales. Everything was flavorful and quite tasty. I will admit service was a little slow the last time I went, but given the weather and the fact that we weren't in a rush it wasn't a big deal. If you haven't been yet, you should go. The colorful presentation reminds me of Palette 22, and rumor has it they are expanding to the Ethiopian restaurant that closed next door. I hope that's true!

Could work on those fried plantains as they were a little soggy. The quinoa salad was good, a bigger portion would have been nice for the price paid and maybe if it would be easier to eat if served in a bowl. The chorizo sandwich was okay. Presentation and bread could be better. We left curious about their regular menu so we may give it a try some other time. Their staff were nice but not very knowledgeable about their menu items. They didn't really know how to answer my question about their vegan tres leches and told me it was not actually vegan after indicating it had condensed milk and heavy cream.

This was my second visit to this restaurant. My companion and i ordered from the happy hour menu…read morewhich is on the back of the full menu. It is a $24.95 flat price offering an appetizer, entree and dessert for that price. (Only available Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday from 5-6:30 pm). There were about 6 choices each for appetizers and entrees and 3 for dessert. My companion had a mussel appetizer and I had French Onion soup. My soup was a great example of the classic preparation. Bubbly and browned cheese over a deeply flavorful broth of onions and a slice of French bread. My companion loved the mussels. As to the entree I had what was called Beef Diane, a twist on the classic Steak Diane. It consisted of tips of filet in a delicious gravy flavored with cognac. My companion had Rainbow Trout and was very happy with it. For dessert we both had cheesecake with strawberry sauce. A good example of a New York style cheesecake. Both entrees were served with well cooked mixed vegetables. The portions were not a scaled down size but normal size. The meal comes with fresh baked toasted bread served warm. Delicious. The service was attentive which was to be expected because there were only 3 tables occupied. A complimentary shot of a what I think was kahlua was served at the end of the meal. The atmosphere is lots of dark wood and a classic bar. Great food and a great experience. Don't pass up this great value!!

Because of an unexpected change of plans, we decided to have a weekend dinner here, and it turned out to be a great decision - based on the food and service. What really worked for us was that the restaurant has a few outdoor tables, and the outdoor seating is dog-friendly. First, the restaurant has a pretty extensive menu with diverse options. I will admit that I was a bit overwhelmed when the waitress mentioned all of the specials for the evening. It seemed as the list kept going, going and going. Also, the restaurant has a dinner special for about 35 bucks that includes either a 3 course meal or a 2 course meal + a glass of wine. For my dining pleasure, I went with the baked (or maybe it was broiled) flounder that was served with potatoes and green beans. Overall, I thought my meal was absolutely delicious. I do wish the portions were slightly larger. Overall, I thought the service was absolutely wonderful. Our waitress was very friendly and constantly checked in with us to make sure everything was going well. Although we visited around 5:30 pm on a Saturday, I was a bit surpised with how crowed the restaurant became around 6:30 pm. If you are planning to visit around this time, I highly recommend making reservations even though this section of Wheaton can be relatively quiet. Also, the restaurant seems to be very popular with the eldery community. During our visit, I'd say the average age of diners was somewhere in the 60s.
