    Pow Pow Shrimp
    Donna A.

    It was date night and we decided to try Tidewater Grill. The greeter was very friendly and polite. We were seated immediately. Our waitress came as soon as we sat down to take our drink orders. She seemed very scared. Not sure if she was new or not. She was very nice, but a little nervous. For an appetizer we tried the POW POW Shrimp. They were not good. The lacked flavor and the breading was too soft. Our Caesar salads were good. Unfortunately, my husband did not like his chicken Parmesan at all. It has too much Alfredo sauce. I've never seen Alfredo sauce with chicken Parmesan. The Alfredo sauce was spilling out of the bowl. The had no flavor and the chicken breading was not crispy. The cheese garlic toast was soggy due to it being placed on top of the sauce. My shrimp scampi florentine was okay. For dessert, I ordered the Key Lime pie. It was okay. I've had better. The service was great, but the food was very disappointing. Maybe brunch is better. Lastly, it was very warm in the restaurant. Guess the AC was not working.

    Fried Green Tomatoes

    On June 2, 2023, my husband and I decided to try this establishment for a change in our dining choices. The reviews were good and we trusted them... We made reservations and we had a reserved table for two upon arrival. The restaurant is housed in what looks like a community recreation building in most subdivision, with nothing on the building advertising it is, "Tidewater Grill" which was fine with me. It is there to serve the community and located in Potomac Shores Golf Club. My husband had a beautiful view of the golf course and I viewed the inside of the restaurant, which offered a pleasant atmosphere. After we were seated (because very few people were inside) I expected with all the servers moving about, someone would be over shortly. After about a minute I decided to use my timer on my cell phone to see how long it would take. While my husband gazed at the golf course, I kept my eyes on the servers, ready to flash my beautiful friendly smile, but none of the servers (6 of them) would look in my direction. I asked my husband if we made a mistake by coming here, but he thought I was a bit anxious. Finally, after 2:43:14 minutes, our server came and asked us what would we like to drink. She didn't introduce herself, so I asked her what is her name. I won't mentioned it here, because I don't want to zoom in on her. I asked what were the specials for the day and one item caught my attention...FRIED GREEN TOMATOES! I love them and inquired about the topping, and she needed to ask the Chef which indicated that she was a new hire. BTW, she was serving the adjacent table and never acknowledged us with, "I'll be right with you." The fried green tomatoes were disappointing, they were pre-fried (sitting under a warmer?), crust didn't adhere to tomato and they were mushy on the inside. They are served with an unappealing brown chutney with shavings of Parmesan. The flavors didn't excite me. Chef Carolyn Butler of "Invite Me Again" makes the best fried green tomatoes in the DMV!!! I ordered the ribs with fries and coleslaw and my husband ordered Jamaican Jerked chicken with coconut rice, black beans, and plantains. My ribs were tough, the sauce and fries were tasty, but the coleslaw tasted like it was spoiled. When the server asked how was my food, I told her the coleslaw tasted spoiled, and she said she would tell the Chef. She did not offer to remove from my plate or offer me an alternative. My husbands meal was extremely visually unappealing. I didn't want to take a pic because it looked so...you get my drift. However, he said the chicken was really good, so I asked to taste it. Unfortunately, it didn't do it for me. We were planning to have dessert, but couldn't chance another disappointment. We paid our bill of $72.72 (including tip) and left without incident. After all of this my husband wants to try again...he'll be alone.

    Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict
    Melissa T.

    One star is for the ambiance and beautiful scenery. Unfortunately I did not take pictures of all the food served as we were trying to enjoy each other's company and not the lack thereof. I ordered the smoked salmon eggs Benedict which was average and the salmon looked more raw than smoked but I eat raw salmon so no issue for me. Now the chicken and waffles were startling as it was dry and looked like leftover grilled chicken from the night before and they dipped the chargrilled (note the marks on the chicken) in batter and over fried the chicken. Whew a friend of ours ordered the shrimp and grits which was heavily tomato based and clumpy dry grits which were returned back to the kitchen. Don't even bother with the "wet" wings esp garlic Parmesan. They only sprinkled garlic and parm on dry ass party wings. Go to America's Best Wings for worthwhile wet wings. SN: I wanted to LOVE this place with close proximity, beautiful scenery in a beautiful new neighborhood and golf course. The food is disappointing and lackluster for the location. Not worth to even have photo ops.

    Southern Spin Kitchen - Fried chicken and waffle sliders

    As I was driving through Dumfries, I heard of a new place called Southern Spin Kitchen. From…read moreRichmond Hwy, made a right onto Colonial St as the gps guided me but where the location is pinned, it doesn't exist. So I continue on Colonial St, see a big parking garage that reads Rose Gaming Resort, went up the ramp and parked. I went into the elevator, took a guess and push down to the 1st floor. Well there it was .. the food court with multiple restaurants inside the resort in which didn't stated beforehand. In the lobby, there's 6 establishments on the 1st floor such as Crab Tastic, R' Burger, Mama Mia's Italian Kitchen, Southern Spin Kitchen, The Bar and Corner Store. But you have to check the listings as they do not open on the same days and hours. During Mondays-Wednesdays, you have to place your order at the Corner Store for Southern Spin Kitchen and R' Burger. There were 3 items: 1) Chicken and Waffle Sliders 2) Fried Chicken 3) Peach Cobbler. The sliders were unique, waffles were fluffy and chicken were crispy. You get 3 portions served with crispy fries and slaw but never received the slaw but everything was delicious. The fried chicken platter is served with two sides of choice (collard greens and mac n' cheese). Be careful with the first bite as the fried chicken is piping hot. The two sides are were delicious but the collard greens were too sweet for me. The peach cobbler was supposed to be à la mode in which the kitchen staff of SSK informed they ran out of ice cream. As I return to the cashier named Tasia F, I informed her of what SSK staff told me about the ice cream. With the assistance of another cashier named Allie, I was informed that cashier Tasia F went searching through other kitchens within the resort to see if ice cream was in stock. Unfortunately there wasn't any ice cream available which was okay. I wasn't expecting anything because I understand if supplies were short. But I had excellent service with these two cashiers who were friendly, genuine, knowledgeable and beyond customer service. I would make future visit to try other items on their menu as well as other establishments

    This restaurant is in the casino so there's AMPLE parking. It was pretty empty for a Sunday evening…read morewhich was surprising. We had to place our order at another counter (minimal staffing at all restaurants in the food court). The rotisserie chicken was pretty good, collard greens and baked beans are prepared with pork (fyi). Substitutions for chicken pieces are not allowed. My husband had the smothered pork chops which he really enjoyed. His only complaint was there wasn't as much gravy as he would've liked on the pork chop but instead was covered in a lot of mushrooms. We would definitely visit again!

    Not bad, but not great either…read more The restaurant's ambience is truly modern and inviting. As someone who resides in Dumfries, this is a very welcome addition to upscale dining, and I was greatly surprised by the decor. I've visited many casinos locally and around the country, including Vegas, Atlantic City, Biloxi, Mississippi, and New Orleans, and I must say this restaurant's decor is on par with many of the other fine-dining restaurants. When I arrived at the restaurant, it was not busy at all. In fact, there were only a few people at the bar and another couple who came in at the same time as us in the dining area. While someone would look at this and be very skeptical, I took it as number one. I was coming on a Sunday night around 5:30. Number two, it may be early for dinner, and number three. I could assure you that my food would come out hot. My server was excellent. The service was terrific, which I had heard was the most mixed part of the experience previously, due to staff turnover and inconsistent service levels for a fine-dining establishment. Akeara was fantastic, I mean, truly remarkable, and coupled with the excellent management and leadership of Veronica Keller, they made the dynamic duo who saved my dining experience. Akeara was very well-versed in the menu and sensitive to dietary restrictions when asked about many of the ways ingredients were prepared. She was invaluable and well-versed in preparation methods, as well as in drink pairings and menu options, to ensure we had a great culinary experience. The food I really enjoyed the calamari. It was fried perfectly. The two dipping sauces were fantastic. The rose salad is absolutely a star on the appetizer menu. I was a little skeptical about the crabcake because the way she described it sounded more like a fried crabcake than a pan-seared one. I think had she mentioned pan-seared, I would have likely gone with a crab cake, but I am certainly not disappointed in the calamari, and again, the salad was phenomenal. The steaks were a different story. I think they marinate the steaks, although I got different answers from the server and the manager when I asked; however, the steaks were a great cut. I saw someone get the bone in Tomahawk, which is presented nicely, hanging from a hook, with the Chef coming out to torch butter over the steak and vegetables beneath. I got the New York strip. It was a very, very lovely piece of meat. The New York strip was severely underseasoned. In fact, I had to ask for steak sauce, which is a cardinal sin of any steak restaurant. I think had they used a little more salt, pepper, and garlic to finish the steak It would've been perfect. The cook was absolutely perfect, medium rare. The seasoning was just off. I also got the risotto and short ribs. The short rib was well seasoned, though so much gravy from the short rib almost covered the entire plate of mushroom risotto. Tasty but just a little disproportionate in presentation. The bread basket was terrific, and the honey butter was nice, though the bread had a slight cheese flavor. It was still a really good combo. The baked potato is by far one of the best values on the menu as a side item. It was large. It was hot and fully loaded. The creamed spinach was a little more cream-cheese-forward, and it seemed like the spinach needed a little something else and seasoning, so it wasn't as bland. The desserts were another story: the toffee cake I thought would look like something I would get at Hell's Kitchen looked more like a very crumbly cornbread with ice cream on top. The vanilla ice cream tasted great, but the cake was just OK. The crème brûlée was on another level. It was fantastic, creamy, full of vanilla, and had a great crunch from the Brulé sugar on top. What really made this meal so good was the service. I talked with my server about my dissatisfaction with the two lobster tails: I did not appreciate being told they were pulled from the lobster shell, and they were served cold and rubbery. The server immediately jumped into action, spoke with the manager, and had the lobster removed from the bill. Thank you so much. But what really impressed me was the time that both the manager and my server spent at the table. Veronica was truly a pleasure to meet. As a military officer who has commanded hundreds and been responsible for thousands, she really hit it out of the park with her ability to problem-solve and immediately address issues as they arose. She was very engaging and really a pleasure to be with. This dynamic duo, who've only worked at this location for less than 5 months combined, really made me say I will come back to the restaurant, assuming they may have had an off night with seasoning and timing in the kitchen. If there's anything to take away, the food is OK (3 stars), the service from this dynamic duo was fantastic, and that's why they got the four stars.

    I really want to give this a better review. We ate at 6pm…read moreon a Friday, no reservation. Seating was immediate and our water glasses were filled quickly. The table attendant? Was the best. Never had an empty water glass. Service was friendly but really slow and inconsistent. The server was attentive and accurate sharing how food could be ordered to accommodate food allergy. But I always felt like I was waiting. When a place is busy it is understandable when there are extended wait times, but there were only 4 other tables in our room. One table, seated after we ordered, had different specials explained by a different server. Again. Service was friendly but very slow. Food was not special. The short ribs were exceptionally salty. Risotto was creamy but lacked flavor. The special was Chesapeake Chicken, gluten free and ithoir any adjustments. That was great! But the dish was covered in sauce, overpowering the dish. Dessert included crème brûlée which was also GF and nice but just standard. Good wine menu with reasonable price per glass and standard but not noteworthy cocktail options. I'd prefer to give 4 stars but the price of dishes wasn't what you'd expect for the taste, but staff were friendly and we were fed without having an allergic reaction. On the way home we passed several options that had similar menus that had more flavor and more reliable service. I can now say I checked it Rose's Casino. As a midwestern gal with plenty of Iowa casino experience, this is nothing to write home about. Maybe next year.

Do U even have an EXPO on duty?! Do they check orders as they leave the kitchen?! I ordered a FAMILY SIZED Cesar salad and got a salad for 1! I ordered 2 dressings & got 1!!! I have photos of the salad! They are supposed to use the bigger round bowl for family sized salads! This rectangle bowl is much smaller. And, they didn't pack it nearly full of romaine! Much of the romaine that is in the bowl is discolored & bad! I am beyond dissatisfied. I'm angry. This is NOT even close for a $35 salad! We need more romaine & more dressing! I have stupidly spent far too much at this place. Corporate needs to get involved. Every time we order, the bag is way over packed -- ever think of using 2 or more bags?! -- and liquids are NEVER secured! I have experienced countless deliveries with soup, salad dressing & the oil for bread turned upside down, pouring out of the bottom & bottom side of the bags! My Uber driver even told them tonite to make sure the bag was assembled correctly. They added 4 staples at the top of the bag!!! How is that going to help my delivery?! Are U serious?! One of the managers, Alex, is nice. But, our deliveries are still arriving WRONG! He drove to deliver salad dressing once that was completely eliminated from my bag. We ordered the family size salads! And, I always order an extra bowl of dressing. Again tonite, I got just 1 bowl of dressing! Where's my second one?! And, where's the romaine?! The pricing is astronomical for these sloppy things to keep happening. Alex/other managers, U need to do 3 things: o Tell your staff to READ ORDERS before preparing them! (Why do they keep leaving out the 2 orders of salad dressing I order?! It happened again tonite.) o Tell your kitchen staff CONSISTENCY MATTERS! (Prepare decent sized portions & make sure portions are exactly the same per order!) NOTE: We got chicken & fries a few days ago & it was crazy! We ordered a bunch of them for the family. Two orders were acceptable -- they had a decent amount of chicken and fries. The other 3 orders were awful! There were barely any fries in them & the chicken was in tiny, little pieces. Another example, we ordered a focaccia loaf a couple days ago. It arrived warm & soft. Ordered 2 more tonite & it arrived cold and hard. What the frick is going on?! How hard is it for staff to execute their jobs professionally?! CONSISTENCY MATTERS! o Buy THICK CARDBOARD INSERTS to put in the bottom of delivery bags! I'm done having my soup, salad dressing & oil for bread leaking out of the bags! It gets all over the food items inside the bag, it gets on the Uber driver & in their cars. And, I'm out the proper amount of soup, salad dressing & oil that I ordered & paid for. Does any of this make sense?! If staff don't care -- it shows -- just close down the restaurant.

So I pulled in, parked, walked in and the restaurant was cleaned with a beautiful bar. I ordered 3 items: 1) Beef empanadas 2) Cuban sandwich 3) Buffalo wings. As the appetizers arrive to the table, though I only chose one empanada out of the three flavors they offer: cheese, beef or chicken. I chose beef which was served with a special sauce (mayo and ketchup), because it was well seasoned and the filling was packed, the sauce wasn't needed. The crust was thin, flaky and delicious on its own. The buffalo wings served their homemade ranch, with 8 pieces were juicy, tender and delicious. Unfortunately the Cuban sandwich fell flat for me. The ingredients were ham, cheese, roasted pork, pickles, mayonnaise and mustard. The sandwich was flattened like a panini and I was excited for the first bite but the protein was too dry. As I lift the bread, there was only a teaspoon mayo and mustard spread. It was served with matchstick fries and a ramekin of ketchup. I wanted to ordered desserts but unfortunately they do not make all of their homemade desserts (flan, tres leches, rice pudding) every day. You will have to called in to see what they have before dining in. The only dessert available that day was their flan. My server Karla was friendly and attentive.

The other three members of my family ordered different chicken dishes and all three were bad. Overall they were very bland. Using a little seasoning during cooking goes a long way. The chicken on the dishes seemed boiled. I guess this is an easy way to get tender chicken, but man does it remove the flavor! My wife's chicken had tendon and grizzle through out. My daughter's Marsala was gross. Seemed to be a Jared gravy. The wait staff really should not be wearing jeans, especially since the dining room seems nice (except for the paper table cloths.). One of the waitresses had ugly tattoos which no one wants to see at a nice place like this. It's a shame. This place has potential, but the food and wait staff drag it down HARD.

    Whenever I visit the Marine Corps Museum, the Tun Tavern is a required stop. This cozy, quaint…read moretavern is a wonderful homage to the original birthplace of the Marine Corps in 1775. With its woody decor, faux candle lighting, and smooth vibe, it's a motivating and enjoyable spot for a quick beer and a bite of pub food. They offer a great selection of local beers, and the service is friendly and quick--they're even helpful if you need a recommendation to find the perfect brew. Since the museum itself is free to visit, you can easily swing by just to enjoy a meal or a drink here. Highly recommend checking it out!

    I had a deeply disappointing experience I had at Tun Tavern on Monday, January 19, 2026, at…read moreapproximately 1:30 PM (1330). As a senior army officer, I value professionalism, discipline, and mutual respect--qualities I unfortunately found entirely lacking in the service provided by my waitress. During my visit, I was subjected to a series of unprofessional behaviors that were both disrespectful and disruptive to the dining environment: Aggressive Mannerisms: The waitress repeatedly slammed dishes and glassware down on my table with unnecessary force. Lack of Discretion: When presenting the check, she loudly yelled out the total amount of the bill in front of other patrons, which was highly inappropriate and unprofessional. Disparate Treatment: I observed her treating other parties with a level of courtesy and attentiveness that was pointedly withheld from me. General Demeanor: Her overall attitude was dismissive and overtly rude throughout the meal. For identification purposes, the server was a female of minority descent, approximately 5 feet tall with a heavy-set build. I have long respected Tun Tavern for its historical significance and its ties to military tradition. However, the treatment I received was inconsistent with the standards of hospitality one would expect from your establishment. I believe it is important for management to be aware of this incident so that it can be addressed through proper training or disciplinary measures. I and my wife chosed to go eat at your establishment, especially with my family service to the United States Marine Corpss (three cousins; retired CSM, SSG (decesased) and enlisted (obligatged tour of duty). I even emailed to museum coordinator and the post. No reply. I seems those especially those people in the Tavern restaurant chose not to show customer service and the mannerisms are were poor among their staff especially the waitress along with the management ignoring the customers. And the Marines want one (Tun Tavern) again in Philadelphia.
