Tracy IsaacJune 18, 2015Great date spot. All meats and steaks are cured and aged on location. Order the Porterhouse topped with foie gras for a true culinary experience. Better than Range.
Nicolas PrattJune 5, 2014Delicious food, ingenious menus, friendly service, and some of the best meat, cheese, and wine selections in the DC metro area. High prices, but quality ingredients.
Joseph MeyerAugust 13, 2014Brunch/Happy Hour is amazing. $15 charcuterie was awesome. Good service and a great vibe (for a Sunday afternoon). Decent beer selection, but not the best.
Bitches Who BrunchFebruary 6, 2018The Bitches say: A+. This is one of the best deals; worth a trip to Silver Spring—a carnivore’s delight, plus excellent craft cocktails (lavender margarita), French toast and Nutella doughnuts. Read more
Tammy WangAugust 16, 2015Amazing artisanal cocktails (the lavender margarita and the hibiscus mojito are tasty and refreshing) and well-cooked meats. Meats can be a tiny bit overpowering and overseasoned, but still tasty.- Paul KrzychAugust 17, 2014The charcuterie and cheese are amazing! Throw in great entrees, sophisticated drinks, and an approachable wine list and you have Silver Spring's premier dining destination.
Everything is good, but I love there mustard and cured meats are amazing. Try the mixed drinks be different be adventurous and enjoy.
IS KLEOctober 5, 2014Tempted to not tell anyone how great this place is in SS. Cocktail specials are excellent. The homemade salamis are awesome and the t bone steak is really solid as are the sides.
Mimi NguyenMarch 22, 2014The lamb tartar is a must! Everything is delicious and I love that they smoke their own meat. I cannot wait to try more of the menu.
Rachel RubensteinSeptember 12, 2014Love the food, everything is excellent however be aware that Happy Hour only applies to the bar & high top tables-not the dining room. Kinda stupid. Plus they seat you without telling you that.
Claire WangJuly 12, 2014What a pleasant surprise! Great vibe, excellent food. Happy hour is awesome ($5 artisanal cocktail/$15 charcuterie). Blue crab avocado salad = pure bliss.
ChrisAugust 20, 2014I really enjoyed the ox brisket and steak frites. Good beer selection too. Ambiance is a little cold.
Jeremy ThomasOctober 17, 2017The early bird specials are great value. But more importantly, they know what they’re doing with grilled meats. Delicious!- Joseph MeyerAugust 13, 2014The Steak Frites are perfect. Smoked butter with Garlic puts it over the top!
The aged steaks that are freshly cut - lamb, amazing cocktails (Lavender Margaritas)♡♡♡♡
Christi LiongsonJanuary 13, 2018Everything here is phenomenal. You can't go wrong with any of the meat cellar samplers.- Pastrami is heavenly make sure you get it with the house mustard.
Dara Kahn PeskinJanuary 17, 2014Best meal I've had in a long time. Try their ox brisket and tuna ceviche. Fantastic menu!- Rachel RubensteinSeptember 6, 2014I loved the black and blue blue cheese as well as the Duck breast. Great steak & fries too.
Seth RubensteinSeptember 1, 2014Steak Fries was fantastic. As was their butcher board sampling of meats and cheeses.
Martin LespadaJuly 30, 2017Nice setting in an otherwise not so attractive neighborhood. Food is too spicy and salty, in particular the cold cuts, that you cannot taste anything. It's too overpowering
Beef burger was very very underdone and fries were chewy rather than crispy. Don't order either.

EvanNovember 5, 2016Absurdly loud, overpriced, and overwrought. You would probably be better off going down the street to Rays the Classics.
