This restaurant is comfortable and decent. Nothing to write home about but pretty easy to please visiting relatives and kids alike. My one big complaint is that itâs tough to find something with calories that would fit into a normal humanâs daily allowance - lots of cheese and grease and big portions.

My wife and I brought a friend here to Stanford Grill who was visiting from out-of-town. We chose Stanford because during every one of our previous visits, weâve always had outstanding food and customer service!! This visit was no different and she absolutely loved the restaurant!! For an establishment that doesnât solely focus on Asian cuisine, their sushi dishes are fantastic and delicious. Been here many times before and will definitely continue to dine here in the future.My only negative observation: I wish the hostesses up front as you enter the restaurant would smile when greeting patrons and present a more welcoming persona. A restaurant this classy deserves nothing less than this small effort from its staff. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a kind review! We love getting feedback from our guests, especially repeat guests like yourself! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the sushi we offer. We look forward to having you back to dine with us again soon!

We're known for wood-fired pizzas, mini burgers, fresh salads and chef-inspired entrées, like pan-seared sea bass and oven-roasted filet mignon. It's American bistro fare, crafted from high quality ingredients with a chef at the helm in every kitchen.

The virtual tour of the restaurant on their website is very cool and worth clicking through.We had dinner during the week. It was crowded, but not packed, service was fast and friendly and the food was good. The mini-burgers and crab cakes were excellent, There is a good selection of fun drinks (with and without alcohol). The menu is very varied and includes a build your own pizza option.

OK...the waffles were great but the service was inept getting several of our orders wrong. The food is just OK AND THE BIGGEST SIN....the drinks, prepared by our server, were watered down. This is the first martini Iâve drunk with less effect on my mood than the water provided for considerably less cost. Wonât return.

We stayed near this Founding Farmers in Potomac, Maryland for one week. We had dining several times for one week. Meals quality is improving slightly. We enjoyed our meals but we did not appreciate with waiter's attitude and prejudgment. Former employees said that they got a bad impression about front desk team, management people, and waiters. Neighbors shared stories with us too. There is a high turnover employees because they are not happy with management and team's attitude and prejudgment. You will not see authentic respect or warm welcome feelings. Also, they do not treat customers well. Birthday cake is not free for loyal customers. Other restaurants offer loyalty program like a free birthday cake for loyal customers. You should try Oak Lodge, Seasons 52, Jaleo, Silver Diner, and Brio. They are best than Founding Farmers related to loyalty program and customer appreciation. Founding Farmers does not have any loyalty program and do not offer appreciation for customers. Sometimes customers complained about rude approach and blatant attitude by waiters and by managers. Waiters often quit at Founding Farmers and you will not see these familiar faces next year.Thank you, BizVistitor for sharing your review with us. I am so sorry to read about the lacking service during your experiences with us while you were in town, and feel badly that our lack of a "loyalty program" did not sit right with you. :( I am also sorry for the disappointment caused by not offering complimentary desserts for Birthdays- we actually have candles available to place in any dessert ordered for any celebratory meal. This all said, we do appreciate your feedback and hope to have you back for another try sometime soon! Please call us for any reservation help needed: 301-340-8783. -Amy

Our first visit to First Watch met our expectations for a great brunch. Never heard of this restaurant until I searched for "best brunch in Rockville." Although we got "in line" on their app, our estimated seating time was delayed by about 15 minutes. Next time we'll factor this in. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, evidenced by a high volume of lively chatter. The service was prompt and pleasant, the food was generous and tasty, and the price was fine. We'll be back...and we'll bring friends.

We found Full On Craft Eats and Drinks through TripAdvisor while we were in the Rockville area visiting a friend, and enjoyed our first lunch so much that we went back a second time. There are definitely some talented chefs in the kitchen. The sandwiches were excellent, and there are several vegetarian options on the menu, always a plus. The crab cake, meatloaf, and cauliflower sandwiches were all excellent, but the cauliflower was a special treat prepared with black bean hummus, pickled peppers, pepperjack cheese, and a smoky ranch dressing. The onion rings and fries were also very good, and wines by the glass are more than adequate. Service was very friendly and efficient.Full on Craft Eats is a small restaurant with a challenging parking lot, so be prepared. We went early for lunch the second time to avoid the crowd as much as possible.

Our extended family enjoyed a Saturday evening dinner. Fresh lobster, crabcakes, fresh oysters, shrimp cocktail, and drinks were delightful. The creamed spinach was subpar, with the cream sauce congealed, partially dried out and the spinach a bit overdone. The mashed potatoes were bland, minimally seasoned and dry. It was obvious that the vegetables were prepared ahead and left in a warmer. The waiter said a substitution was OK and when the bill came, the substitution was charged as an additional side. With ala carte options and prices on the high side, the bill can climb rapidly. Desserts were tasty and nicely presented. Our waiter was young, friendly and attentive but not fully versed in the nuances of the menu. Valet parking was a nice touch. We had a 10-minute wait despite being on time and having a reservation.

We are regulars at the Silver Diner as we like their food and alsobecause our 8 year-old granddaughter loves the place. We were byourselves on this visit and, instead of ordering our usual, we decided to try2 new dishes advertised on the wall at the entrance area. Afterordering the Coconut Curry Tofu Skewers appetizer from the lunch, wetried unsuccessfully to locate the 2 new dishes which, we discovered, are on thedinner menu. So we asked our friendly young server to just bring thepromoted dishes. The mashed potatoes and corn and asparagus helpedmake the Cajun salmon & Carolina shrimps more palatable, as did thesambal agave glaze and the curry sauce to the taste of the Tofu &Lentils dish, even though the sambal and curry were not the spicykind.We like the fact that our designated school is rewarded for our diningvisits. It is also a nice touch that Silver Diner offers eachmember a free meal on his/her birthday.

Ambivalent. I canât really pin point anything that would suggest a return visit. Every thing was just okay nothing special. Relatively easy to find. There is free parking. Menu is limited. I was disappointed with an Asian salmon salad. Seasons 52 has a much bigger and better entre salmon salad. Also, disappointed there is no non-alcoholic beer on the menu. We could carry on a conversation without raising voices. It was an ok experience but if in the area again I might try one other restaurants in the area.
