I really wanted to. Service? although there was one person standing at the register.No greeting. Ordered from the Kiosk. There was no food presented. Which should have been a huge sign but no... not for me. I still ventured on and ordered the PHO. Simple right? Absolutely NOT. I ordered to go and as always I checked my order although they tried to staple my bag shut. Nope . I ordered Chicken with shrimp. I opened my bowl site. Guess what.... NO SHRIMP! When I brought it to the attention of the one staffer who proceeded to question me. He then printed out my order and took it to the back. He emerged with a bowl of three boiled shrimp. At which point I proceeded to laugh out loud. Watery broth. Red onion ( not spring); extra for cost for lime, hoisin and sriracha. Yeah? No... absolutely NOT. They actually should consider changing their Menu Patronize at your own discretion

Great food and the sides to match!…read more LOVE this place! The rotisserie chicken, unlike anywhere else, is crispy, juicy, seasoned to the bone.....and soooo good. The spice and flavor is not just on the skin, like some Peruvian spots around but in the meat as well. You have to try yucca fries! It's a great add-on side to your meal. The Plantains are really good too. The menu is expansive with lots of options....where your meal never gets dull. My go-to's by far are the Grilled Lamb, Carne Asada Steak, Lomo Saltado and of, course....the Chicken! It's what they are know for. Not to mention, they offer a well-rounded selection of vegetables and sides to complement your meal. Too many to name here but trust me, if you're looking to keep your meals and "fast food" healthy....this is your place! The dessert is also really good. The thin sliced cookies has the texture of Mexican wedding cake (some Wholefoods carry them....but can't compare....they are all TOO sweet. Sardis' is perfecta and authentic. The Rice pudding with cinnamon deserves an honorable mention and worth a try as well. In all, you can't go wrong with the food and healthy options at the place. The food is great, fresh and the grilled/specialty menu items are always made to order. Wish they had a Sardis in the NW DC area. I definitely would have this place on reapers! Definitely give this place two-thumbs up and recommend!

Famous Chef Thomas Reviews: Sardi's Pollo a la Brasa (Clinton, Maryland)…read more The Verdict If a restaurant wishes to test its understanding of hospitality, it is not found in the complexity of its menu, but in the grace with which it handles a simple request. At Sardi's in Clinton, the answer, in this case, is clear, and it is not favorable. The Examination A. Foundation : The Establishment Sardi's has long positioned itself as a dependable destination for rotisserie chicken and Peruvian-inspired comfort. For years, The Famous Chef Thomas was not merely a customer, but a consistent patron, returning regularly, investing both time and money into the establishment. The food, while not revolutionary, delivered consistency. The relationship, however, was the true asset. And that is precisely what was mishandled. B. Structure : The Request The request was simple: A standard side of mixed vegetables, unchanged in portion, slightly adjusted in composition. A modest increase in corn within a dish that already contains corn. No additional cost burden. No operational disruption. No deviation from the existing ingredients. This is not culinary innovation. This is basic accommodation. Yet, the request was denied. Not once, but twice. C. Discipline or Failure : The Breakdown A single denial may be dismissed as an oversight. A second confirms policy over judgment. Escalation to management should represent recovery, an opportunity to restore the customer relationship. Instead, it compounded the failure. The response, lacking flexibility and refinement, revealed something deeper than a one-off interaction. It exposed a systemic issue: a disregard for customer value and an unwillingness to exercise discretion in service. When a loyal patron, one contributing thousands of dollars annually; cannot receive a minor, reasonable accommodation, the issue is no longer operational. It is cultural. Hospitality Assessment First Impression: Previously reliable, now overshadowed by rigidity Hospitality: Inflexible, dismissive under simple pressure Execution of Food: Consistent but ultimately secondary Authenticity / Identity: Undermined by lack of service awareness Value Alignment: Broken, price is no longer justified without respect Final Judgment The Famous Chef Thomas does not measure a restaurant solely by its food, but by its understanding of the guest. At Sardi's in Clinton, a small request revealed a large truth. A year has passed since that final interaction. No return visits. No further patronage. Thousands in lost revenue, exchanged for a refusal that should never have occurred. The Famous Chef Thomas does not recommend this establishment.

The fries were golden, crispy, and hot out the fryer. The mumbo sauce complemented the chicken perfectly, but honestly, it didn't even need it. I'm not native to DC but live in the DMV, and I've had my fair share of carryouts with mumbo sauce--but this spot was fire. There's no ambience because it's a carry-out joint, so don't come expecting a dine-in experience. You're pulling up strictly for the food, and trust me, it delivers. Rating: 9/10 Would absolutely recommend and will be back. Appreciate the put-on @LATryGuy!

One thing I love about Noodles and Company...my food will be hot every single time. First time…read moredining in. We ordered the Pad Thai and Chili Garlic Ramen. We originally came to use the 2 for 12 culinary classics special but ended up adding proteins, drinks, and garlic bread so with everything (two bowls with protein, two drinks, cheesy garlic bread), the total was a little over $30. I could've done without the protein in my bowl. In my opinion Noodles and Company is one of those places that tastes better with all the "fixins", so if you can add anything to elevate your bowl I highly suggest it. However, the proteins are pretty basic and don't seem to add much pizzazz to the dishes. My partner complained that the noodles were heavy and greasy, but mine were . Not your traditional pad Thai but pretty decent for a chain. I asked for no cilantro (yuck). The cheesy bread barely had any cheese on it, was a bit dry, and I didn't care for the flavor of it, so I probably won't order that again. Service was good and our food came out in about 10 minutes. There are plenty of booth seating and tables inside to sit and eat as well. Great for quick comfort food but don't expect anything too fancy.

I liked the simplicity of the chicken noodle soup. It was well seasoned and tasted good. I was less impressed with the pad Thai with chicken for protein. It had an odd flavor that I cannot place, but it must have been what they marinaded it with...I don't like the flavor. While the spicy Korean steak noodles had a similar flavor, the tenderness of the steak and the spicy complement helped to distract from whatever they put on the noodles that dampens the dishes. However, I'm glad I grabbed the rice krispy treat for a snack - it was yum!

The food options come with its own unique healthy living quality. The salads are fresh, and you can navigate the kiosk to add or subtract your toppings ( and sauces ) to your very own taste. And for my dinner I grabbed the noodles with chicken ( as the protein) some jalapeños, and bell peppers. The noodles were delicious, with a great texture and not seasoned too much ( I don't like my noodles over the top season wise ) The to-go box was a nice one person portion, for a very affordable price.... And to celebrate as I like to do a couple times a month... I ordered the brownie crumble ( WOW !!! ) This brownie was made with my taste buds in mind. But listen, this is not just your average brownie... Nope !! This brownie comes custom made with your choice of fruits !! ( I decided on the grapes and strawberries to "Take Me Through There !!" to end the evening ) Honeygrow is a cool place in its own right... doesn't come with all the bells & whistles like some of the other establishments... It comes with what all true customers desire ? Clean atmosphere, professional service and good food !!!

While in Waldorf earlier today, we decided to stop by the recently opened Honeygrow location and…read moregive it a try. Overall, we had a very positive experience. The restaurant itself is modern and inviting. While a few of the tables and seating areas could have used a quick wipe-down, the restaurant was quite busy, so I'm sure it was challenging for the staff to keep up with the dining area during the rush. Because of that, we opted to sit outside, which ended up being a great choice. The outdoor seating area was pleasant and made for an enjoyable lunch. Since Honeygrow uses self-service kiosks for ordering, the service experience is a bit different than a traditional restaurant. We placed our order through the kiosk and waited for our names to be called. When our food was ready, we were surprised to find it packaged in to-go containers even though we had selected the dine-in option. The cashier was extremely apologetic and even offered to transfer our meals into dine-in bowls, but we decided not to bother. I will admit I was a little disappointed because I was looking forward to seeing the presentation of the stir-fry in the signature bowl. The cashier did give us a complimentary fountain drink as an apology which I thought was very kind. As for the food it was absolutely delicious. I created my own stir-fry with citrus garlic chicken, a variety of fresh vegetables, and spicy garlic sauce on the side. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and all of the flavors worked together perfectly. My husband ordered a similar stir-fry but chose tofu and the soy garlic sauce, and he enjoyed his meal just as much. Despite the small mix-up with the packaging, we were very impressed with the quality and freshness of the food. We would definitely return and try more menu items in the future. My only wish is that they would open a location closer to us in Woodbridge, VA!
