I visited Myste for a private event, and while the space itself is very aesthetically pleasing, the…read moreoverall experience was disappointing, mainly due to the food and service. The lounge is on the smaller side, which actually worked well for the event and gave it an intimate vibe. The owner was also very nice and welcoming, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. The menu is extremely limited, and you pretty much have to piece together a meal from a few items. I ordered the jollof rice and six-piece chicken wings. The wings were overpriced, overcooked, and had no flavor at all. The only options were sauces on the side (honey, ranch, or blue cheese), and when I specifically asked for honey drizzled on top with blue cheese on the side, that request wasn't followed. Even more frustrating, our server never came back to check on us or make sure everything was okay. The jollof rice was honestly the worst part. Instead of that rich, smoky flavor you'd expect, it tasted burnt with a harsh charcoal aftertaste. I've had jollof rice many times before, and this was nowhere close. I ended up sending it back. Because I was hungry, I forced myself to eat the wings, even though they were dry and lacked flavor. Overall, Myste Lounge has a nice look and potential, but the food and service really need improvement. A revamped menu and better attention to guests would make a huge difference.

Service was great considering the place is small, it's hard to miss customers. It's a small hookah lounge in downtown Laurel, so don't expect a ton of space, but it's still a nice little spot to unwind after a long day or make a chill after-dinner stop. Hookah was smooth and the atmosphere was laid back. They do sell food, but we didn't try it this time. My only downside is the drink menu, it's mostly wine and champagne but overall it's a place I could see myself frequenting.

The ticket included bottomless lemon drops during the painting session, which made the experience even more fun and interactive. The atmosphere was upbeat, the music kept the energy going, and everyone was having a great time. Even though food is purchased separately, don't skip it because it was honestly one of the highlights of my visit. My favorites were the beef meat pies, salmon bites, lamb chops, and the fufu with egusi. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned. I also appreciated that SkyVibe offers more than just Sip & Paint. They have karaoke nights, happy hour specials, and other events throughout the week, making it a place you can come back to for different experiences. If you're looking for good food, great vibes, and something fun to do in the DMV, I'd definitely recommend giving SkyVibe a try. I'll definitely be back!

The food here was delicious for my large group. So flavorful and well done. I'd certainly return to eat. Now, for the vibes. I hate loud music at a restaurant, but this spot had basically no speakers on their rooftop. So the sound was very low for the music they were playing. The music might've been coming from the tvs, but I'm sure they have the capability to turn it up a little so it's still background noise, but able to be enjoyed. The service was fast and efficient. Our server was very nice and able to accommodate our mixed spice levels with great recommendations!

Street parking is free, though it's important to check the posted restrictions, and there is also a small public lot just a short walk away. Our group of 11 had a smooth and pleasant evening. Our server was relatively new but handled the large party with confidence, including separate checks, which we appreciated. She was still learning the menu, but she offered honest recommendations based on dishes she had tried herself. The food was well received across the table. The kitchen gladly accommodated two guests with dietary restrictions, and that flexibility was greatly appreciated. I ordered the Lamb Shawarma, which had tender meat and a wonderful blend of Mediterranean spices. The empty plates around the table said it all. Dessert was the highlight of the meal. The chocolate mousse cake and the layered almond-lemon cake were both rich, flavorful, and a perfect finish. With generous hospitality, accommodating service, reasonable prices, and a menu I'd like to explore further, Olive on Main is definitely a place I'd return to.

I saw the family and found out by talking to them the child had autism. The family even tipped the waitress 30.00. My heart breaks for them. I will not be going back. Autistic children have a hard enough in life they don't deserve this. The owner should be ashamed of his self. If I could give a zero I would.

I had the steak and cheese wrap and the crispiest tater tots. Other folks got the chicken tenders with shoestring fries, and a burger. We were all quite pleased. If I'm in Laurel, I'll definitely stop in.

My only complaint was people standing at the bar drinking on such a busy day when others, like myself, were trying to order and go enjoy the outside tent area. Other than that, the vibes were good! The music was fun, the crowd had great energy, and they even had a horse there dancing to the music The food and drinks came out, and overall we had a good time.
