Good for groups
Neighborhood gem
Great for brunch

Bubbling, thin crust pizzas, mini burgers, crisp salads, and craft cocktails...four great reasons to visit matchbox today. We’re the neighborhood gathering place for fun, upscale casual dining, with local, award-winning beers, broad spectrum wines, and handcrafted signature cocktails you won’t find anywhere else.

A titan of a space, Rockville was modeled after a hunting lodge yet still manages to feel cozy. A comfortable fireplace fills the space, as well as two wood-fired ovens that churn out thin-crust pizzas in minutes. With two outdoor patios and the private 30-seat Congressional Room, there’s plenty of space for intimate dinners, large parties and get-togethers.

We had a reservation for 1230, and the restaurant was very busy. Our server was clearly overwhelmed, so he kept forgetting to get my drink or bring the check. I think he had too many tables because we had to flag him down to pay our check. Not such a good experience I would say unfortunately. The food was also barely warm, when I think my pizza probably should’ve been hot.
