Rocklands Barbeque and Grilling Company - Washington

★★★★☆ 3.7 (412) • $$

"I ordinarily get the Rockland's burger. The quality of its signature dish is still high. However, this time when I paid for the meal with a credit card then paid tip with cash--I noticed my burger arrived last. I think the service could be more expeditious or handled in order."

Old Blue BBQ

★★★★★ 4.7 (114) • $$

"Pretty sure these were the best breakfast tacos I've ever had. You know how you have a thought of what you want to eat, then smell something else and completely change? I was driving with the windows down and caught the BBQ smell and immediately knew I had to have it so I turned around. Only problem was, I couldn't find the place. there's no huge BBQ pit out front, just amazing smells (look for the wood pile). After finding it and parking, I entered the regular looking door and found that it's mainly a catering operation that allows you to call in or order there and takeout orders. I got three brisket breakfast tacos. As weird as it sounds, when I opened the container, the tacos were beautiful. Like...the presentation was on point. Maybe I was just hungry. But they were amazing. From the pico, to the potatoes, to the brisket, then adding the sauce on top, it was so good. This place is definitely worth your time, give them a visit."

"Wow, it's been a minute since my first visit, but let me tell you, this place is the real deal! You gotta run, not walk, to experience it for yourself! I recently celebrated my good good girlfriend's birthday here and everything was absolutely amazing. The service was top-notch, I mean GREAT! The food was out of this world, DELICIOUS! And the creativity in every dish was simply AMAZING! We had a blast with the bubbly flowing, delicious food, and endless laughs! It was truly an unforgettable experience. Trust me, you won't regret it! Tell them T-Mac sent ya!"

"Coming back to say still really love the food here. My favorite is definitely the curry goat stew (that had now been permanently added to the menu). I also had the prime roast for my Christmas dinner and it was soooo good! Everyone loved it! The customer service is always amazing. Peter, who I normally speak with, is soo accommodating and and all around awesome. Pro Tip: I would call ahead and order ahead so you can grab your food when you get there. Items I would recommend: Capitol Hill Crab Cakes Curry Goat StewChicken Sandwich"

Trippy Tacos

★★★★☆ 4.2 (81) • $$

"I wish this place was closer to me because I really loved their Lengua tacos![Food: 4 of 5]Lengua Tacos- 5 of 5.. I mean.. Lengua tacos are my all time favorite tacos. These meat pieces were bigger than what you would typically get at *generic taco shop* - and they were soo juicy. I ordered 2 tacos that came out to a little over $7, to me, that's definitely worth it.Al Pastor Tacos - 1 of 5 - I really did not enjoy this taco at all. And..that's all I'll say about that.Carne Asada con queso - 5 of 5- I have never had flour tortilla tacos served with cheese! I honestly was taken aback when they asked if I wanted this with cheese or not. Eaten fresh, it's super toasty with the cheese melting and oozing. Even when we let the taco sit there for awhile and cheese had hardened, it still tasted so good.Pupusas con friojles y queso- 5 of 5 - The pupusas was nice and hot- The pupusa was over filled with beans (not that I'm complaining) - I wish the sauces given were spicy or had a kick (I love spicy). The pickled vegetables for the pupusas were fresh and tangy, paired very will with thier pupusa.Drinks: I did not get their frescas but they offered tamarind, horchata and... one more flavor but I can't remember.They had a large variety of sodas in their cooler, including Pepsi Zero products which I thought were awesome.[Service: 5 of 5]The person who helped us at the register was so friendly and helpful.He let us know about the Taco Tuesday deals and offered ice to us with our soda since it wasn't cold. [Ambiance: 3.5 of 5?] The place was very small, like maybe it was a mom and pop shop? It was just the kitchen and then 1 small table for 2 and a bar along the window with some stools. The place did not have a public bathroom (which kind of sucked for me, because I drove over an hour to come here and reeally needed to use it). There was no music playing when I went, so it was kind of nice just listening to the hussle and bussle of the stoves, and the chitter chatter of the guests at the restaurants. I hope to one day venture out to this part of MD again so that I could try "the best nachos in MD" and to get some more lengua tacos!"

Grazie Grazie

★★★★☆ 4 (73)

"Thank you Thank you indeed! I mean, what a delicious pair of sandwiches we had here. Like others said, definitely not cheap, but you can't argue with the flavors, and being from out of town... everything here looks stupid expensive to me, so I just bit down into it and enjoyed.We got two sandwiches and exchanged halves, definitely the way to do it. One of them was the chopped Italian, and the others was a custom cheesesteak. The chopped Italian was a phenomenal sandwich. I could have ordered another one right then and there even though I was pretty full, the flavors were just so good. The chopped sandwich trend is popular for a reason, because every bite just has everything so well incorporated. Topped with some really flavor parmesan cheese and on their delicious bread... magnificent.The steak cheese was quite good, just completely outshined by our other sandwich. The homemade cheese whiz set it apart, honestly, I could have just had a big bowl of that cheese with their bread for dipping and been very happy. In the end, very happy with the sandwich, and if the only reason it wasn't my favorite was because another outshined it... no reason to knock it."

"This is a cute neighborhood shop with a robust and tasty sandwich counter that, as a sandwich lover, I wish I could find more of in Northern VA. The staff is super friendly and there is a great selection of products and brands to choose from.I also love that it's near downtown Bethesda, but just on the edge so that you don't have to get mixed up in the chaotic downtown traffic."

La Buena Empanada

★★★★★ 4.8 (35)

"Wandering around Union Market, this vendor caught my eyes so I gave them a try. An empanada costs $6 each, which is pretty steep in price. I did their 3 Empanada Combo ($17), although $1 in savings is not much, but allowed me to try a variety of their offerings. My favorite is the Argentinian Chorizo. The Beef Empanada is pretty standard from other empanadas I've had. The Chicken Empanada has some nice flavoring to it with bell peppers, onions, garlic & spices."

Manna

"The food here was good, but the menu that seems to be featured on a lot of on line reviews is not accurate...the menu with Biblical names for the dishes is the old menu, not the current one. My family and I all got the cheeseburger and fries. The burger was good, the fries were great. After seeing the chicken tenders at other tables I regretted my burger decision...the tenders looked amazing!"

Que Rico

★★★★★ 4.8 (22)

"Came here for the first time and it was interesting finding the place. They're located in the very back of a 7 eleven in a small warehouse like building. There's no sign outside that tells you this is the place, that's because this appears to be a shared kitchen with other restaurants, four in total. Well, the ordering and payment is all done online or by using a tablet ordering system located inside. Just browse through the menu, place your order and pay. Afterwards you receive a text msg. with a pickup time. They have these lockers that hold your food and when the order is ready you get it from the locker's. Very simple, totally contacless and little human interaction. I got the "titi favorite plate" with choices of rice, stewed beef and tostones. I also ordered one beef empanada just incase. The food was very good 7.8/10, it had that home cooked taste and the portion was just right. Easily for two meals if you're not greedy like me. I definitely would return to try their pernil/pork butt and their mofongo balls."

Sundara Catering

"We ordered takeout and got the butter chicken, garlic naan, and vegetable samosas. The butter chicken was AMAZING! The chicken melts in your mouth. Many other places only focus on the sauce and not the quality of the chicken (dry). This chicken was so moist, it changed my world. The samosas were great as well. The naan was nothing special, and the portions were a bit small for the price. Definitely will be returning and trying other dishes as well! Forgot to take pictures because I was so hungry :D"

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (8)

"Amazing time here! Greeted by Femi and he was amazing. Super attentive, knowledgeable and guided us through the pairing of the food we ordered. The vibe is afrobeats mixed with a homestyle eat with comfort setting.We tried goat stew, egusi soup with fufu, cowskin stew, samosas and peanut butter soup.When i tell you everything was seasoned to the core, i mean it! Everything could be your favorite. The cowskin stew was mine or maybe the goat stew. See, i cant decide. I highly recommend this spot. You will not be dissatisfied in the food. 5/5. Highly recommend."
