Best Restaurants for Foodies in Potomac

We had a reservation and were seated within a few minutes of our arrival - just enough time for us to get a view of the buffet. The buffet was well staffed and had a wide variety of items to choose from. Since this was our first visit, the hostess who seated us gave good description of buffet and explained the menus and beverages. Our waiter, Aaron, was just as good, introducing himself, explaining and taking our drink orders, and keeping track of the needs of our table and I'm sure, the others he was responsible for. A manager, Dean, stopped by to answer our questions about Founding Farmer and to make sure we had what we needed and our expectations were being met. Both he and our waiter Aaron were very pleasant, helpful, and met our needs in the midst of a very busy environment.

Great food with well thought out combinations. Had the Lamb Pita that was outstanding. Our server Lukas, was well versed to the menu and even asked for any allergies to help in selections. Great overall experience.

For a treat to yourself go to Claudio's Table, a little pricey as everything down to the bread is a la carte...however, it is excellent! My short ribs were perfect and my mom's branzino was grilled to a moist and delectable turn....be ready to spend >$100 for two and save room for dessert.

My husband and I decided to grab an early lunch while we were picking up a Christmas dinner order in the area. I had no idea that there was a sister restaurant to Clyde’s. I have been to the location in DC, and I really enjoyed it there. So, I figured I would have the same experience, and I was right. The food is delicious, it was beautifully decorated for Christmas, and our server was knowledgeable and friendly. We didn’t even need to ask for refills; a replacement drink was on the table before we could even think to ask. Now, that is some stellar service! We will return with friends, and I have already recommended to a friend who is also a fan of Clydes in DC. Happy holidays!

This was a great experience. From the time we walked in until we left the staff were considerably, attentive, and extremely nice. The energy is inviting. The open kitchen was a nice addition to the experience filling the room with warmth. The menu was clearly designed with deep thought and intention. Would highly recommended.
