Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Silver Spring

Food was excellent as always. My perfect dish is the salmon, my husband’s the cod, my son’s the steak frite. Everything cooked at exactly the right level, as requested. It is a joy to eat there, & the staff couldn’t be better or nicer.

What a delight to find this gem in Bethesda! The chef is talented, every dish was perfectly prepared and presented, easily on par or better than places charging twice as much, locally or in the district. The owner’s warm welcome, the excellent service and easy parking (a rarity in Bethesda) assure that we’ll be back often.

The entire high tea experience was perfect and ideal. Everything was perfect! The foods outstanding. The tea selection was so many it was hard to choose from. We each were satisfied with our selections and recommendations from our server. It was a wonderful afternoon and I would highly recommend this for a special afternoon with friends and family. Plus they have a no cell phone use policy. It was nice quiet conversations, exactly how dining out should be. Thank you to everyone who made our cold afternoon a delight.

I love it when an Indian restaurant's menu offers more than the usual dishes, and that's the case at Masala Arts. Very tasty stuff!

Well prepared and presented vegan offerings. Beers on tap and NA beers also.
