Tara Asia Rockville

Central Michele Richard DC

Dogfish Head Alehouse Gaithersburg

Acme Oyster House New Orleans

Oysters were amazing once you got over the dirtiness and total lack of presentation. Crawfish was okay and etouffee was bad.

4/5

Arnaud's New Orleans

Expected better for this famous landmark. Jazz brunch - music was great, people were hospitable, the food was mediocre.

4/5

Upperline New Orleans

Fantastic food - rich, seasonal, contemporary southern.

Flaming Pit Gaithersburg

Nothing to share

3.5/5

Sushi Damo Rockville

Sushi Damo does a great job of combining flavors to make traditional Japanese sushi into something more contemporary. I enjoyed my Maryland-Cali and Spicey Mistletoe roll. The tuna with crispy flakes and advocado was flavorful and vibrant. However, if you try the tuna on its own or the sashimi, the fish is less than stellar. Go here for the modern rolls and interesting twists, avoid it for the traditional and fresh fare.

4/5
