This was my first time at a wayback burgers franchise. This particular location happens to be at the food court of the Navy exchange on NAS patuxent River. Food court is a rather grand term for an area that has two restaurants; a Panda Express and wayback Burger. I imagine that at lunch time on a weekday this place would be just complete chaos. We were here on a Sunday, second group in line. It wasn't fast. The ordering process is a little bit like a five guys, just not as organized or efficient. The burgers themselves are okay, better than McDonald's not as good as five guys. But, they are very expensive. For two burgers fries and two drinks we got out of there for about $23. So in the final analysis it was okay food but probably not worth the money. They have a lot of toppings like five guys, but not quite as many. I'd go back but I'm not really interested in being a regular.

The Lighthouse Restaurant & Dock Bar - "Original" Crab Cake Sandwich

This was my first time visiting Solomons Island, and I'm so glad I chose The Lighthouse Restaurant!…read moreI was looking for fresh seafood with a nice waterfront view, and this restaurant did not disappoint. There is parking conveniently located near the restaurant, so you don't have to worry about finding street parking. The restaurant was very clean and offered indoor and outdoor seating, along with an indoor bar area. There is also an ATM on-site. I looked at the menu ahead of time and already knew I wanted the Ultimate Seafood Platter, mainly because it included a crab cake. We also ordered oysters as an appetizer, and they were absolutely delicious and incredibly fresh. Hands down, this was some of the best seafood I've had from a restaurant in a long time. The scallops were plump and juicy, and the fish portion was very generous. I'm usually nervous when a crab cake is included as part of a platter because I expect something small or previously frozen.That was definitely not the case here. The crab cake was a great size and tasted fresh. They offer a traditional version and an "angry" version. I ordered the angry crab cake, and it was seasoned to perfection. The other person with me ordered the seafood pasta, and it was just as impressive. The Alfredo sauce was delicious, with plump scallops, juicy shrimp, and a generous portion of pasta. It also came with amazing rustic, buttery toasted bread. The waitstaff was great, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the waterfront view made the experience even better. If you're looking for fresh, delicious seafood with a beautiful view in Solomons Island, I highly, highly recommend The Lighthouse Restaurant!

Come for the cream of crab soup and the deck views, but not so much for the food…read more I went contrarian on the crab cake, going against my usual ordering style and trying the "Angry" Crab Cake fried instead of my usual agreeable broiled version. I'd say the crab cake was more "miffed" than "angry." And the garlic butter green beans were seriously overloaded with garlic. On another visit, I ordered the Caesar salad with blackened shrimp. The shrimp arrived seasoned with what tasted like jerk spice, but they weren't actually blackened. The setting is great, and the cream of crab soup is worth a stop. I just wish the food lived up to the location.

Ordered the Fat Tire Cheesesteak sub because I'm always looking for a good cheesesteak and I was…read morenot disappointed at this location of Greene Turtle's version! Mind you, I've had fantastic cheesesteak subs in Philly (home of the cheesesteak) and was not prepared to give very high marks for this rendition. But thankfully, the thinly-slices ribeye was cooked just right, the sautéed onions added the savory flavoring that only onions can provide and the Fit Tire Beer added to the liquid Orange cheese (Cheez Whiz or a variant) really added a unique cheesy flavoring. The roll was not seeded, but it was soft and held the meat and cheese together just fine. I only added a little salt and pepper because I do like my cheesesteak meat with some seasoning. After only 2 bites, I could tell this cheesesteak was a good one! I am going to try other items on the Greene Turtle menu now that I've sampled their cheesesteak sub! The waitress was friendly, engaging and very pregnant, but she did not appear to be uncomfortable and was attentive to our needs. The volume of the music from the overhead speakers was just a touch too loud, so much so, that waitress had trouble hearing my order, so I had to stand up slightly and talk louder than usual to make sure she could hear my order. Bottom line, the cheesesteak was tasty and satisfying and now I've found good purveyor of the cheesesteak!

Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. Despite the restaurant not being particularly…read morebusy, we waited an extended amount of time before anyone took our food order--nearly an hour. During that time, three servers were standing nearby folding roll-ups, including one of the servers assigned to our table. We understand that staff have responsibilities to take care of, but it was frustrating to wait so long for basic service while seeing employees working on other tasks right next to us.
