Seating is comfortable and inviting and there is no music to infiltrate one's conversation. The hostesses are kind and friendly. Cody, our server, is well versed in food and beverage and he helped us navigate the finer points of the menu. His recommendations were spot on. Our meal was perfect. My girlfriend enjoyed her Clyde's Chili, mashed potatoes and broccolini, as well as her key lime pie with raspberry dessert. This was one of my all-time favorite meals. The chicken liver with cranberry compote is swoon-worthy. Absolutely remarkable. My Maryland-Style Crisfield Stew was exceptional. Loaded with seafood (mussels, fish, crab, and more) in tomato-based broth that was slightly spicy but not acidic. Everything in the dish was tender and perfectly cooked. (There was one little fingerling potato cut in half as if the chef was vehemently declaring that they do not use fillers in their stews.) For dessert, I had their "Cupcake of the Day," matcha and raspberry, which was light and delicious. The accompanying latte was wonderful. We greatly appreciate Cody, the chef, and the kitchen staff for making us one incredible meal. I want to relocate to Rockville just to be near Clyde's!

It's a cute, intimate space with great service and excellent food. I got the salmon and avocado burger, which was really good. It was accompanied by rosemary parmesan fries that were fantastic. My friends tried a bunch of different items, including the chicken fried pork chop, duck breast, and a burger. Everyone was really happy with their choices and liked their drinks as well - the blueberry elderflower was a particular favorite. I look forward to going back!

The vibe was for a sit down, but it looked like a really cool place to get a seat at the bar for a Friday night drink! We got fried green tomatoes and calamari to share. Both were seasoned well and fried crispy! There was no sogginess at all. We also shared a lamb bolognese amongst the four of us! It was so good and the pasta tasted al dente. For my main, I got the Ribeye that was cooked well. I got medium well, but should have gotten just a medium. For desert, we got a crème brule and a dish that was like a brownie with ice cream? Great presentation and taste. 5/5 and is a great addition to the area. I believe it is run by the same people who own Frank's Burgers? They are both connected to each other. SUPPORT LOCAL!!!!

Really solid four stars and a strong recomend fora cozy, relaxed and casual dinner with your partner, freinds, yourself or family. The only note is parking in their lot is nigh impossible some times, so your best bet is to find street parking nearby and drop anyone who can't walk all that far. If you don't drink they seem to have a limited NA beer selection, and I didn't see any mocktails. We really liked our beet salad and our Ceasar salad, which came out os fast, I wonder if they already had them prepped. I really liked my fish and chips as it was a nice portion and wasn't heavy on the frying at all. It was very well done and the tartar sauce was great. My wife got the (I think it was a special) Tuna poke for her main, which she said was really tasty. But, it also looked like a small portion in one of those weird plates that only had a modest divut in the middle for food. Nonetheless, she liked it a lot. If it becomes a mainstay, they just need to make it a bigger portion on a better bowl. We're happy we finally came and will return.

We ordered a few dishes to share, and everything was well-executed and flavorful. The brussels sprouts were a standout to start, and the mussels in the coconut curry had a rich, well-balanced flavor. I also really enjoyed the grilled Faroe salmon with the butternut squash purée--it was cooked perfectly. The steak frites with the red wine mushroom reduction glaze was another favorite and definitely worth ordering. For drinks, I tried the Cherry Blossom "Another Trip Around the Sun" (a seasonal cocktail available through April 12th), along with the brown sugar old-fashioned and the lavender French 75. All three were well-made and complemented the meal nicely. Overall, this is a solid spot if you're looking for a cozy atmosphere, good food, and quality cocktails. I'd definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone in the area looking for a reliable dinner spot.

I only went in here to grab some cookies. I was able to try four of them and my thoughts are below. All of the cookies were large. Peanut Butter ($5.50) - This was very good and definitely my favorite one tried. It was filling and the peanut butter that was apparent in the middle was nice and was tasted throughout. Wild Thai Banana ($6.50) - This was not bad. It tasted like an ideal banana bread. I am not sure what made it Thai as I was unable to figure that out. Coconut Chocolate Chunk ($5.50) - The coconut was not too overpowering, and I liked that combination with the chocolate. This was noticeably heavy too. Cherry Pie ($5.50) - This was very soft in the middle from the cherry incorporation, but surprisingly, I need more cherry taste here. Will I go back? Sure.

Saturday's are great patio days. Sunny views on the waterfront at the Rio had us famished and we…read moredecided to mix things up with some cornbread and heavier fare. I have to say, though busy, the service didn't miss a beat. Jenn - our server - was attentive/kind and fun. I got the filet mignon with the compound butter and my homie got some BBRibs to complement the aforementioned cornbread. The food came out fast and we got to eating. As always with every time I've been here, it slapped. Sides were solid, the steak was cooked to perfection and them ribs were disappearing off the plate! Good times. We followed up our entrees with a solid - and I mean solid - bread pudding. Jeez, this thing is decadent, but we got after it. Jenn brought us a scoop of ice cream and we went to town! Delicious. If you've got a sweet tooth, do yourself a favor and grab the Bread Pudding. It was soft, pillowy, but sweet (not overly sweet) and filling. As for ambiance, again, we were kickin it patio side and could see the water just fine. Honestly, this was a dope backdrop for our super deep convo on Frank Ocean vs. Frankie Beverley. Before I let you go, check'em out some time. You'll enjoy it. Or do you not think so far ahead?

What a cool, fun place to dine…read more Cooper Canyon offers a varied array of dishes in a comfortable and open dining environment. Ava took care of us and she was simply amazing from her demeanor and kindness to her stellar recommendations. We began with their extremely fresh spinach dip that included salsa and sour cream. My girlfriend ordered the massive, warm, and yummy cornbread skillet as well as their Fiesta Eggrolls. I am not an eggroll fan but these were the best I have ever had. Absolutely fresh, flavorful, and delicious. I had the rainbow trout with spinach and mashed potatoes. The fish was fresh, light, and tasty. The trout itself was a very generous portion. For dessert, we dove into their Chocolate Uprising: Sort of like a ice cream sandwich on steroids with heavy cream and a chocolate and caramel base. It was fantastic and insane and we just couldn't finish it! I cannot remember having caramel that good (not sweet but rich). The staff is excellent. They work so well in concert from running food to clearing dishes. The bartenders are outstanding. I had a perfect Hendrick's Gin martini with blue cheese stuffed olives and my girlfriend loved her Malibu Bay Breeze. We look forward to returning -- and we'll start with the Chocolate Uprising and go from there!

Our waiter Sean was phenomenal and the food was out of this world. I had the shrimp salad, and we also had the mussels which were fantastic. I loved the sauce, I would say that I would hope they get better quality mussels because they were small and more than a few stayed closed (the rule is never open closed mussels). The bread they served was delicious, and the salmon was cooked perfect. I am planning to come back more than a few times, it was fantastic.

It was Saturday at…read more11:30 am when they opened - the exterior is an old Victoria house that is so quaint and so is the interior 2 dining rooms and the patio with 2 large ceiling fans. A for decor. F for food and service tho and the bathrooms were also not up to the quality of the rest of the restaurant especially since they charge above market prices for many of their menu items. The hostess was sweet and gave us a great corner table. The waiter came over fairly quickly and read us the specials and quickly walked back behind the bar to continue his personal convo and we never saw him again. Nor did he bother to look over at us to see if we were ready to order. I finally cause the attention of another team member so he took our order. Similar non personality the waiter had - not rude just no personality in any way (unlike the hostess who was very personable). My Pork Chop was $36 - way overpriced and tiny/very thin/low quality meat/very overcooked and tough to cut with the serrated knife they provided. The rice was good but the sauce was awful and it came with seemingly store bought chips. The dish's components didn't work and it just didn't make sense. For a great Pork Chop go to Sixty Vines in Crown and Grillmarx in Olney - you're welcome! My Mom's Margherita Pizza was bland and almost tasteless. Nice very thin crust but for $17 I expected at least some flavor. The bathrooms were very dingy/dirty/cheaply renovated and the radiator on the floor had a lot of rust - a coat of paint would easily hide that. The interior and the patio have a slightly upscale classy vibe but the bathrooms were very off-putting. Would not go back nor would I recommend.

It's hard to tell whether it's aiming for Southern, British (fish and chips), or generic American comfort food. There was even a vegan lasagna dish on the menu. Where did that come from? The identity never really comes together. The wines are brandless, and while I understand how difficult it is for independent restaurants to maintain a broad menu, it showed in the execution. A few dishes tasted as though they'd spent too long under a heat lamp or at the bottom of a holding pot. I heard a nearby diner complain that the lobster pie dish, which seemed like a good has-to-be-freshly-made option, was overly salty. Nothing I had was inedible, but the food had a mid-quality Sysco-truck feel and was surprisingly lacking in flavor. Makes you wonder if this is the owners' first stab at the restaurant business. The bright spot was the service. The staff was personable and genuinely welcoming, seemed to be trying to be hospitable. An extra star for at least making that aspect of the meal pleasant.
