Green Papaya Bethesda

It's okay. We ordered the equivalent of an egg roll for an appetizer, which did have some good stuff in it, but was overly crunchy and thick. We then shared the lemongrass beef vermicelli and vietnamese pancake with chicken. Everything was pretty thick and greasy. Vietnamese is supposed to be light, but this definitely was not. It's enough to satisfy the craving, but not much more. Also, the prices are on the higher end for what they offer.

3.75/5

Al Crostino DC

It truly was not my night so all I ordered was the soup. It was good, but I had no appetite. I would, however, like to try Al Crostino again and get a real opinion.

Le Grainne Cafe NYC

Fabulous, really. My chicken and ratatouille crepe was satisfying and memorable. The flavors combined perfectly. My cafe au lait was also done particularly well. Highly recommended for brunch/lunch or late night dessert.

Island Burgers & Shakes NYC

Huge portion sizes. Good quality food. Moderately priced. It's not your cheapest option, but for the amount of food, it's a bargain. My churasco had two huge chicken breasts, one I completey did not touch. I also ordered a white&black milkshake, which was as good as they get. Highly recommended if you are looking for simple food with a bit of a twist.
