The bartender I had was a guy with dreads I believe, and he was very knowledgeable about everything there and he made great drinks. He was very professional and he ran that bar well. I don't know why it took me so long to stop in this spot but I'm glad I did. If you're thinking about going don't think about it anymore-just go.

I've been here about FOUR times now, so clearly they're doing something right. My latest breakfast was a bacon, egg & cheese on a croissant with hash browns on the side, and it HIT! Nothing overly complicated, just a really good breakfast. And the PRICE?! Listen...after what some of these breakfast spots have been charging me lately, Colette's Cafe was a pleasant surprise. Very affordable! It's a quaint, no-frills café with a pretty good variety of breakfast and lunch options: hot and cold sandwiches, chips, drinks, and plenty to choose from depending on what you're in the mood for. And THEN I forgot to mention that it's Black-owned?! Okayyyy! That's how I originally found out about them. Good food, reasonable prices, and I've been back multiple times. That pretty much tells you what you need to know. Sometimes you don't need the fancy décor and $25 breakfast. Just give me a GOOD bacon, egg & cheese, some crispy hash browns, and let me go about my business.

Parking directly out front is limited (maybe six spots), but if you turn onto Turner Pl and make another right around the building, you'll find more parking nearby. From there, hop in the elevator to the first floor and you're greeted by a small grill counter that's simple, welcoming, and straight to the point. The service is friendly and fast, perfect for a quick bite before work or a casual morning stop. They offer both vegetarian and meat options, so there's something for everyone whether you're in the mood for a hearty breakfast sandwich or a lighter meat-free choice. It's not flashy, but it's reliable, convenient, and exactly what you want in a solid breakfast go-to. Downside no actual coffee

Over the years, the Silver Diner has been evolving from comfort food to a more comprehensive and seasonal menu offering - including comfort food - with organic, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices. If you are dining in this general, suburban DC area region, do not miss the Silver Diner at most any time of day. They open at 7 am daily and close by 11pm unless you are there on a Friday or Saturday which means they are open until midnight. I've found various restaurants in the cities mentioned that are surprisingly hit-or-miss in terms of food quality, ambience and service. The Silver Diner is not one of them. We went because they advertised a 2-day only $14 sandwich deal on social media. While some of their sandwiches are $9, their two most popular sammies are the $22 crabcake with lobster sauce and the $14 cheesesteak sub. Both of our sandwiches were delicious. I was tentative about the crabcake, but no, it was truly flavorful and the portions were generous. Yes, this crabcake sandwich is every bit worth $22. It came with a delightful lobster sauce that you could dip the toast in. In terms of their other foods. We also really liked the cheesesteak and got a nice, spicy sauce on the side for dipping. Here is a snippet about the meat options from the Silver Diner website: * Grass-fed, grain-finished, antibiotic-free 100% Black Angus Beef * Nitrate-free bacon * Organic Bison * Hormone-free & antibiotic-free meats * Hormone and antibiotic-free chicken tenders * Non-GMO products We experienced a delicious meal in a multi-cultural restaurant with tasty and diverse options. They have approximately 25 local and farms that they work with, including Creekstone Farms for black angus, halal beef and the famed Uptown Bakery for daily bread deliveries. The ice cream is sourced from Oregon's Tillamook Creamery. There is a seasonal menu with maybe 14 new items. This season, those rotating items include: * Beet salad * Tuna Poke Bowl * Chili Crisp Shrimp Bowl * Roasted Mushroom Bowl * Truffled Wagyu Meatball Sub * Truffled Wagyu Meatball Pasta with Angel Hair Pasta * Chipotle Salmon & Shrimp with potatoes, leeks and more veggies For dessert, we had a pecan pie and bread pudding. Again, generous portions.

The service was great and incredibly attentive. Everyone was so nice. I ordered waffles, scrambled eggs, turkey sausage, and coffee. The waitresses might ask all their questions to ensure it is cooked to our liking. I barely have pictures because I was so famished. We ended up staying for like 2-3 hours talking as the restaurant started to wind down, and they let us sit and chat while we watched the parking wars outside. MY biggest con is the parking. It is annoying that Sardi's catering occupies 30-40% of the lot. There is a fast turnaround, so my friends and I literally sat and waited to catch someone leaving before parking, rather than driving in circles. There is a hotel next door with ample signs that it's for guests only and that you will be towed; however, I still saw people do it and then watch their cars from the window lol. I think this did put a bad stain on my experience bc it took me about 20 minutes to get parking.

Eventually another server came and finally understood what I wanted. Finally, I got my chipped beef. It was just okay. The taste was different from all the other places that i've ordered it. My girlfriend got over easy eggs with hash browns and toast (off-menu order). She liked it, but it's hard to screw that up anyway. The coffee was decent enough but I've had better. The diner is small and looks like a typical diner. I'm not sure if I'd come back, it was definitely a poor experience this time around.

I wish the kind people there a great success and please, keep up the good work. A few highlites. The "free" salsa is some of the best I've ever encountered, much like Chico's in Welaka, Florida, distinct for it's use of Black Pepper. Secondly, the Guacamole was the best I've ever had outside my families homemade recipe. Very similar to ours in that it had salt, garlic, and lemon juice, in perfect proportions. We ate everything from Gumbo to fried Rainbow Trout, to Cheese Burger and Reuben Sandwiches, and every thing was splendid. The beer was COLD and the waitresses were friendly and on time. One evening we even had the owner serve out table. She was very nice to us. I hope they're still aroung if I ever have an occasion to head back to Washington.

But sometimes, even the best experiences can take an unexpected turn! So, my son surprised me yesterday with a call to tell me he had ordered breakfast delivery for my birthday. I was excited to learn it was from First Watch, my favorite breakfast spot. My anticipation grew as I opened the sealed bag, revealing the packed breakfast boxes ready to be enjoyed. However, my mood shifted after I removed a couple of boxes and noticed the plastic silverware pouch had been opened. The fork was missing and the opened silverware pack raised concerns, making me question the attention to detail and packaging standards. After noticing the packaging issues, I began to wonder about the cleanliness of the rest of the order. Sadly, some items fell short of expectations -- the waffle was soggy, the eggs were stiff and cold, and the potatoes were simply mediocre. The one thing i did enjoy was the fresh fruit bowl which was the highlight of the meal. This experience left me feeling sorely disappointed, I can only give this experience three stars, and that's being generous. First Watch Silver Spring, I hope you take this feedback seriously, as quality control truly matters.

The Cedars of Lebanon is an easily-overlooked cafe right on the corner of the Old Greenbelt…read moreShopping Center which is a lovely hidden gem. I spent every summer in this town, growing up, and I never discovered this restaurant until a precious friend brought me here a few years ago. It's a dated, though efficient, and charming, cafe with fresh dishes you might love. Firstly, if you plan on having lunch here on a Monday, make sure you are able to finish by 2:45 since they close by 3pm. All other days, they are open past 8pm. We started with the sweet potato soup despite the fact that the reviews for the lentil soup here are the highest. Yes! If it's featured: get it! The turmeric and coconut milk make this soup delightful. The herbs made it so fresh and there was just the right amount of sweetness and gentle heat. Parsley really adds to this recipe and I'm not usually a fan of this herb. The pitas are soft, thin and light. Love them. We needed to order more. I've never had such paper-thin pitas. Yum! I love love love the hummus, here. It is nothing short of divine. The flavors are fabulous and deeply complex. You can really taste the tahini. The olive oil is mild and delicious. I exclaimed, "the hummus was the best ever." And then 5 minutes later, I read a review by Yelper James H. where he says it's the best ever and, "... this hummus at Cedars of Lebanon might have ruined all other hummus for me forever." While I've had similar swooning feelings over the hummus at Lebanese Taverna in Tyson's Corner, this hummus is at least a top contender if not the metro DC area's hummus winner. The cucumber mint yogurt salad is nice, cold and refreshing. You can really taste the mint. I would order this yogurt salad with every meal. The falafel pizza is unusual and fresh. Straight away-- you can taste the tahini, parsley and couscous. The dough is grainy and natural. And there are radishes on this falafel pizza: not overpowering. For the $9 or so pricepoint, this dish is a true labor of love. To prep all of these vegetables, even with food processors, must take time. How novel of a dish! Put the yogurt salad on this pizza. You will thank me. And I only did it because I was watching someone else slather it on. There were at least 12 desserts on the menu. Meow. If we weren't so full of pita, hummus, tahini and fresh veggies, we certainly would love to taste a few of these. As well as the Turkish coffee, with an authentic ceramic and metal carafé presentation.

Pretty easy, breezy no-frills restaurant…read more We stopped by Cedars of Lebanon, because it was one of the few places that had outdoor seating and was not full. The restaurant has a small outdoor dining area with three four-seater tables, which was find for our two dogs. The experience overall was pretty low key, which necessarily is not a bad thing. Although there is waiter/waitress service, you will have to order your food at the cashier's counter. Actually, maybe that's only a thing if you are dining outside. The menu has a nice mix of Middle Eastern dishes. I went with a beef (or maybe it was lamb) kabob plate. The portions were fine and my meal was pretty good. It was not out of this world amazing, but it got the job done. I thought that the prices were pretty good for the area and the amount of food received. Although the food was fine, I do not think that I would go out of my way (e.g., driving more than 30 minutes) to dine here. Just be aware that the restaurant does not serve alcoholic beverages.
