    The exterior facade and front door entrance to the Chevy Chase country club
    Sophie B.

    Where do we begin: I grew up 5 homes down the street from the Chevy Chase Country club. Wandered the summer evenings reading mystery novels, watching deer, and listening to frogs sing at dusk. Have returned to my home territory like a Costa Rican sea turtle for our wedding here. First things first: lots of dinners here with friends/fam for decision making and get a lay out of the newly renovated grounds and restaurant. The ambiance is modern and bucolic, and elegant. And a grand fireplace, which always feels like home. We've dinned outside on the terrace and inside fireplace adjacent. Both are private and tucked way, which I appreciate. I'm vegetarian and have ordered the bow tie pasta, the lentil soup, Cesar salad, and crème brûlée. They were all fantastic, but less salt on the lentils. I would order them again and prefer to be in the habit of knowing precisely what I want. :) My fiance has ordered the pan-seared salmon, and Brussels sprouts appetizers as well. Both which he found delicious. The price point is comfortable and the service on point. Parking is easy peezy on the grounds, and appreciate the electric car chargers as well guys. Will be back shortly for additional vegetarian pasta+the wedding, thanks for the hospitality.

    Crispy Brussel Sprouts (was stellar)

    I would say my experience at The Sycamore inside Chevy Chase Country Club was fairly mixed. I will say that the servers are really lovely and helpful. Although sometimes, you have to chase them down as they seem to be responsible for tending bar, the indoor areas, the outdoor patios, and even the poolside bar-- I don't know how they can attend to all of those places at the same time. I loved my Oaxaca Old Fashioned. Refreshing and smoky. The Crispy Brussel Sprout appetizer was also delicious. The Sycamore Kitchen Burger was mediocre (seemed like they used a frozen patty) and the kids' chicken strips and fries were massive but a bit on the salty side. It's possible that I just ordered the wrong dishes or it was an off-day. On the plus side, the view is lovely, and the country club offers free parking.

    C 4 Breakfast Burrito with Short Rib substitute is the best!

    The Sycamore Restaurant has quickly become one of my favorite spots in town! Located at the Chevy Chase Country Club, it feels like a hidden gem, and best of all, you don't need to be a member to enjoy it. The atmosphere is beautiful whether you're seated inside the spacious dining room or outside with a view of the golf course. I went on a Sunday and tried the C4 Breakfast Burrito with a short rib substitute (instead of bacon), hands down the best thing I've had on the menu so far. Absolutely delicious! Our waitress was incredibly friendly and spot-on with her recommendation. Service like that makes the experience even better. This place has become a regular go-to for me and my extended family, and everyone always leaves happy. It's never so crowded that you can't get a table, which makes it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend The Sycamore if you're looking for great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere.

    Its located inside a country club and we came here thinking it was unlimited mimosas... but that's only on the weekends. - Caprese Beet Salad 2/5 Pieces of mozzarella and beets and peaches? It wasn't a very good tasting salad. - Calamari 4/5 The Calamari was crispy and was okay. No dipping sauce. - Bang bang shrimp 4/5 It was really good with not much pieces of shrimp compared to price. It was also soggy because the sauce was coated. - Shrimp stir fry 1/5 Not good. Free parking in a big lot.

    Great service and good food at a spacious patio! Got to enjoy the beautiful sun with delicious pineapple mimosas advised by Manuel! Bring a family along and let kids run around! They'll enjoy it for sure!

    SO great! Taco Tuesday tacos are RAD! Great views, pet friendly on the patio, and delicious margaritas. Real gem of a spot and everyone was so dang nice.

    The Cubano

    Yummy food. Great service. I've been twice and have been very happy. Both times I've had the Turkey bacon avocado club. Crispy shoestring frie My friend had the Cubano which she said was delicious. It was loaded with a pork & ham mixture in addition to the usual cheese, pickle, etc. Another friend had the Clubhouse Cobb salad & again was very happy. We also split an orderof the Crispy Brussels sprouts with balsamic glaze - they were great. Very pleasant ambiance with OLD photos of the Chevy Chase Country club ( where the restaurant is located) which were very cool. Great view. Patio seating available.

    Braised short rob and gnocchi was delicious!

    We are not members here. Just nearby Glendale residents who enjoy a nice lunch, strong country club mimosas, and delicious brunch. I have also been here on a weekday for lunch, and it is very quiet and empty most of the time, which makes it a great spot for a casual lunch time catch up with a friend. Parking is pretty ample. Servers are kind. The grounds are beautiful! I highly recommend the brunch as it is much more lively and -- I repeat -- the mimosas are yummy and strong!

We had two separate servers because one went home during the middle of our dinner and both were equally horrible. Not even exaggerating when I say we waited at least 15 minutes after we asked for the check and there were probably only 10 tables in the entire restaurant. And we had to call her back over to ask for a second time. SMH. The food although flavorful was so ridiculously priced it was not even funny. I got a "ribeye ". Was literally eight thin slices of steak, like 1" x 1" size for $42! No, I will not be coming back here for so many reasons. The view is great. Castaways is definitely not what it used to be in the way of quality but at least you get more and you get the view. But definitely not worth it going to this place. It was quite a frustrating evening. Also, if you do decide to go here, just bring a coat when it's a little bit cooler in the evenings cause it does get cold up here and getting the staff to manage the heaters correctly is a whole other frustration. Oh, and valet is your only option for parking up here. It's kind of crazy because a few years ago you could just go park in the lot or the garage that's available there but now they're charging you $11 and it's chaos. I will say that the view up here is great though so if you're willing to forgo all of that for a view for like a one time date or something like that, it might be worth it

The space is small. Some reviews mentioned tiki bar and this is not a tiki bar, it's a speakeasy. They have a cocktail menu and a full bar for well/cocktails. Great place for a small group.

We came in around 6:30. They had just opened but the atmosphere was ready! Dark and moody with candles on the table, it was the perfect spot to grab a drink and catch up. Jeremy was our bartender and he was fantastic. Super chill and friendly and made us some amazing drinks based on a few preferences.

We came right when they opened so it was very empty, but the bartender mentioned it gets really packed and lively on weekends. If I came back and was able to guess the password I'd stop by when it's more energetic for a different vibe.

Because this is a hotel bar since it's situated in The Langham 5-star luxury hotel, the drinks are expensive like $25 starting. One of my friends got a lemon-based mocktail (pretty good) and I got Cosmopolitan-type cocktail with Prosecco (pretty solid and not overly sweet, just not one of the best cocktails I tried). Another friend ordered Negroni, which is a potent cocktail with a bitter sharp, dry aftertaste. I could hardly taste any hint of sweetness in the drink. My friend thought it was too bitter, too. Honestly, for me it tastes just as bitter as a Manhattan, probably because both cocktails incorporate sweet vermouth. 3 stars for the poor customer service and wait time for standing in line to order drinks. There were 2 or 3 bartenders and they were rushing but also seemed like they weren't efficiently helping customers with drinks in a timely manner. The lounge area was meh (super limited seat spots) and the vibes were bland despite coming here on New Year's Eve. Definitely an older demographic that frequents this bar, not that it's a bad thing, just not our vibe since it would've been more fun if there other people closer to our age, so we decided to bar hop elsewhere after.

First off, I have to praise 1933 group because I have loved every single bar they have revitalized and this one is no different. In keeping with their MO, The Lucky Tiki is a speakeasy with a vintage vibe. I won't give away how to get in but let's just say, it's near the front of Highland Park Bowl. My husband and I didn't have a reservation, but we were able to put our name in and got seated about an hour or so later. I was amazed as soon as I walked in the door! It's just floor to ceiling decorated with everything tiki. So many fun details and even interactive elements that turn on when a particular drink was ordered. That was probably my favorite part honestly. We ordered the Tiki Diablo, which is a large tiki drink with a flaming volcano. And yes it does have an interactive element. It was really good. Very fruity and strong, but not overly so. Service was excellent. Our waitress was on it and even waited to make sure my husband was back from the bathroom before lighting our drink on fire. We didn't try any food this time, but a lot of people were ordering the Hawaiian pizza. Do with that what you may. Will definitely be back ti try more drinks and food. Was the perfect spot for a lively date night!

How about instead of accepting $$$ for a private event that will deny customers their reservation, they make the private event work around what is available? Terrible way of doing business, but I hope they get lots of $$$ and engagement for the privileged private event attendees.
