Shrimp Po Boy and Pulled Lamb Sandwich
Paige J.

If you're looking for something different with a GREAT taste... go online and order your dinner from the Smoking Crab DMV. This was our first visit and we're sold. Pulled Lamb sandwich, Shrimp Poboy, and a Brisket meal with garlic mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. Outstanding! #HappyEating

Are you craving some real authentic Barbecue? Do you want the prettiest fish in the DMV? Are you craving seasoned vegetables? Well if the answer is yes to 1, 2 or 3 drive on down to Ft Washington Md. I'd been seeing their IG for months, so the greedy in me said lets slide slide roll on by and order up some soulfulness. The Beef Rib... can you say yabba dabba doo! Fall off the bone tenderness. The whiting was so dang pretty. I didn't want to disrupt their synchronization, but hell that flavor was to savor. Mac & Cheese was good not the elbow noodles, cut cheesy no doubt. That mixed veg combo, lawd just give me the pot! @thesmokingcrabdmv you got you a new customer..

Fresh salad/bowl place that was fulfilling and enjoyable... quick service, was a little salad that…read morethey didn't have dressing that was suppose to be with my order but my substitution was great. I took my order to go to beat traffic but it was a cute little spot to enjoy lunch. My meal was still warm when I got home which was about 20 mins away. Will be back.

Ooooommmmmgggg!!!!…read more I cannot rave enough about how fabulous Greenbar is!!!! After seeing them highlighted on the news I knew I had to get here asap and I'm sooooo glad I did!! Greenbar is making it easy and tasty to eat green!!! ICYMI ~ they are a new fast fresh, farm to table spot and it's one you need to add to you're "must try" list!! Determined to bring a healthy, accessible and affordable food option, they opened their doors aimed at serving clean food to the community!! Whether it's greens or grains, there's something sure to tantalize your taste buds!! You can choose from one if the various passion bowls on the menu or you can create your own bowl to include a base of greens, grains or both along with a heaping selection of toppings to chose from!!! Whatever you chose to chomp on, I highly recommend the Lemon Garlic Salmon, Sweet + Spicy Shrimp or the Panko Shrimp as your protein!! Plus I was excited to see that they have Saratoga Carbonated water, IYKYK and if ya don't, grab one and you'll see what I mean!!! The interior is clean and minimal!! There is seating if you want to dine in as well!! Staff is so pleasant and took their time as they crafted my bowl. I did like that they were understanding when I asked to wait for more salmon to come out which was not a long wait at all!! So run on over to Greenbar and get in on all this yummy goodness!!!

Just the Black-owned healthy food spot I've been looking for in the Temple Hills area…read more Food : 9/10 -- I had the the unCrabaKALE on top of the CranKALE salad and it was out of this world! Whatever seasoning they use is chef's kiss -- I selected garlic as a topping but I could tell there was more going on. The crab meat was warm and perfectly seasoned too. My only note: the 16oz eats more like a side salad than a main dish. For $13 it's competitive with a Sweetgreen or Cava, so next time I'm just sizing up to the 32oz. Service : 8/10 -- The young lady at the register was pleasant and made sure my order was complete. I did wait an extra 5-8 minutes past my 5:55 pickup time, but nothing major. Ambiance : 9/10 -- Not your average salad spot. The vibe is cozy -- think relaxed bar & lounge on a smaller scale. Love that the menu item names are fun and creative, though the menu itself feels a little busy and could be simplified. I'd love to see Kenny Kale franchised on a larger scale someday. Overall: 9/10 -- Kenny Kale is killing it and is def a keeper on my list I found this place and ordered the same day -- that's how excited I was. I'm genuinely thrilled to have a unique, healthy restaurant in the area that isn't another Chipotle, Tropical Smoothie, or..... fried chicken spot that keep getting placed in Black communities instead of diverse, health-forward choices. And did I mention it was black-owned?! lol nonetheless, it's a literal breath of fresh air. I'll definitely be back!

Stopped into Kenny's Kale to try one of their salads and a drink. They were out of their lemonades…read morefor the day so I went with the CranKale and added shrimp, crab, eggs, cucumber and avacado. Although they were out of the avacado, the salad still tasted fresh.

This place is small and quaint but definitely gives plenty of restaurants a run for your money…read more From the host to the servers, every one was nice and hospitable. We made a reservation for our party. Upon arrival, there was a bit of a wait while they got our table together. I'd say less than 5 mins max. Looking at the menu... it was a bit overwhelming. Not that there are a lot of options but each menu item sounded so good. Our table opted to try different menu items and share. We ordered the: - fried deviled eggs, fried calamari, biscuits and jam, seafood gumbo cup, collard greens, scrambled eggs and candied yams. We also ordered these entrees: catfish sandwich & fries, shrimp and grits, crispy salmon hash, smothered chicken and biscuits. When I say, the entire table was pleasantly satisfied with what was presented to us. So much so, I wanted to personally go back to the kitchen to thank the chef. The portions were great. So great we definitely had to take some home. The only thing I would say could be better is the seafood gumbo cup and the cocktails (or lack thereof). The seafood gumbo could have been seasoned a bit more but nothing that a little salt and pepper couldn't fix. Also, this location doesn't serve cocktails though it is on their menu. I'm assuming due to internal issues, this location cannot serve alcoholic beverages at the moment. So that is something to keep in mind. Other than that, I'd definitely come back and I would recommend to a friend! Thank you Milk & Honey for your service!

Food is mediocre. There's another place MASH EATERY that's better. Overpriced. The hype is not…read morereal. Look at the menu before going. I asked for a plain waffle and still charged for the fancy biscoff crème filled waffle. There are no adjustments. The staff was not understanding and did not seem to care about adjusting the price. The place will be out of business soon with practices like this.

Fresh. Flavorful. Remarkable. The line was long and after one bite, it made perfect sense why…read more Mezeh delivered a fresh Mediterranean bowl that was packed with texture, flavor, and quality ingredients from top to bottom. I ordered the Vibrant Vegan bowl with falafel, brown basmati rice, lentils, tabbouleh, hummus, pickled onions, cabbage slaw, and lemon garlic sauce. Every ingredient tasted fresh and intentional. The falafel had a perfect crisp exterior while staying soft and herbaceous inside, and the lemon garlic sauce tied everything together beautifully. As someone who loves Cava, this immediately gave me that same customizable Mediterranean experience -- but honestly, this bowl held its own. The vegetables were crisp, the portions generous, and everything looked just as good as it tasted. Even after taking it back to the hotel, it still ate incredibly well. The staff moved the line efficiently despite how busy it was, and the open kitchen concept added to the experience watching everything being prepared fresh. Definitely a spot worth the wait if you want something flavorful, fresh, and satisfying without feeling heavy.

Was staying at one of the nearby hotels, so we swung in for lunch!…read more The space has lots of seating for small and medium groups! A fast casual spot, you get to choose from a pre-set choice or build your own Mediterranean entree. Bowl, pita, or salad...with tons of topping and sauce options to choose from. They were a bit understaffed for the lunch rush, so it was a bit longer of a wait than it should have been, in my opinion. I built my own rice bowl on this visit, which included chicken, veggies, hummus, and a few other random goodies! It was super yummy and came served up with a side pita. My only critique was that the protein serving size was smaller than I expected for the price. Overall, a great, healthier option for lunch or dinner in the area!
