There's much to crow about at this contemporary and sleek take on the typical rotisserie-chicken eateries around town. Vivid colors, super-clean tables and floors, and an efficient service counter invite patrons to line up for one of… Read More

This well-regarded Bethesda New American bistro was recently rebooted with a cheaper, more casual approach to its menu, though it still includes old favorites; it also added a skylight, larger front windows and white walls, giving it a brighter look, which is punctuated by pops of color from oversize canvases of fruits and vegetables.

Persimmon Restaurant Review

Owner-chef Damian Salvatore’s Persimmon attracts a sophisticated crowd. His menu emphasizes seafood but also offers several offbeat treatments of pasta and hearty meat dishes. Start with the very fine mushroom and blue cheese ravioli or the mussels. Then, at lunch, dig into his hanger steak frites with a heady wine sauce. At dinner, consider the Caribbean-style pork rack or perhaps the Atlantic...

My visit to this restaurant began with a search for Bouillabaisse. Two restaurants near me offer this dish. One is Normandy Farms, where I've dined before, and which is very exclusive and expensive. This other was this. What confused me at first was that the...

Last year’s restaurant week has turned me into a semi-regular at Persimmon’s, mostly for week day lunches. While I have tried other dishes, my mainstay is the very delicious steak frites, which is served as perfectly cooked sliced steak with fresh hot French fries and...

We have eaten here before but not recently. The menu offers a nice range of selections and they have daily specials. They offer a good selection of wines by the glass and on Tuesdays a bottle of wine with dinner is half price. We found...

Stromboli is a local favorite.  You'll see why when you try the pizza -- considered by many to be on par with New York -- and, of course, the signature Stromboli.  The decor is simple and the food is solid Italian fare.  Free delivery (including for wine and beer) in Bethesda, Chevy Chase and into NW Washington, DC, around Chevy Chase Circle.
