    Cheese Sticks and Old Bay Wings $7 each off HH menu@ Famous Lounge!
    Spencer H.

    I pass Famous lounge every day going home from work. It's located next to the Dutch Farmer's Market and it used to be "Peach's Restaurant " back in the day. Since the rebrand, I've been curious to see what they've done with the place. It looks bigger than I remembered. It's true to its name and setup as a lounge, with the vast majority of the seating (open booth style), placed against the wall, leaving the middle of the lounge open for dancing. We got there around opening time and it was empty, so we chose to sit at the bar, which is also a decent size. The bartender was nice and informed us immediately about the SEVERAL menu items that weren't available. We just went with the Tilapia fish and fries basket, cheese sticks and Old Bay wings. Everything was seasoned well, however, she said the wings were TOO seasoned. Not me, I LOVE Old Bay.. Lolol!! HH rail drinks were $7.99 and for only $2 more, you can get them "topshelf"! The regular menu is definitely inspired African Cuisine, which I'm trying more and more these days. If I lived near Famous Lounge, I would be a frequent HH visitor. I may even check them out one Sunday to catch a game, because they have several TV's throughout! This is definitely a decent neighborhood spot that's much fancier than your normal neighborhood watering hole!!

    This spot was cool. Very nice ambiance, food was pretty good. Lack of servers caused minor delays, but overall good. I left the party early and someone that works there suggested to my friend that I didn't pay my bill. I'm not cut that way and sent my friend the receipt. Didn't like that at all! Will I be back? Not sure, but please try it for yourself and let me know your thoughts!

    Let me get straight to it...Shoutout to the entire Famous Lounge staff for making my Ugly Sweater Event epic !!! Special thanks to the manager ( Vanessa ) who went the extra mile to ensure the night was a total success and also, to our section host & bottle girl ( Angel ) for being there every step of the way....The catering service ( food ) and setup was amazing, the DJ was on point and showed love all night. If you're looking for a place to throw an event, there's no better place to book for it than Famous Lounge. It's spacious, the decor is vibrant and their bottle prices are reasonable !!! ( And whenever you do visit Famous Lounge make sure you ask to be seated in Angel's section... because you won't find a more attentive and on point server ! )

    I had an amazing time celebrating my friend's Muthaf'n Buuuurday at Famous. The staff was very accommodating to things I needed to male this Hollywood event special. The food was delicious & DJ Lady D did the damn thang on the 1 & 2s. There was a mixed grown & sexy with youthful crowd. This lounge is #BarbieMonroeApproved

    I recently came here on a Monday for Happy Hour and had a great time. The happy hour menu has both food and drink specials. The drinks are well priced and strong! There are only 5 food items on the happy hour menu. The only thing I had a taste for was the suya but it was a little tough and chewy. I think I'll try the wings next time. It was also karaoke night so that was entertaining to watch. I definitely will be back for Happy Hour soon.

    My first Famous experience was epic. The whole place was a vibe. The drinks were hitting right. The DJ was grooving, 2 thumbs way up. However the last couple of times I went, there has been a significant decline. The chicken tenders are still on 100. But, the crowd has definitely thinned out. The grown and sexy vibe has been replaced with something that I would deem as a bit more basic, common, current at the expense of quality. It's still a chill spot if you're like me and come equipped with your own vibe and a decent social circle. It's just not as infectious and widespread as I remember my maiden voyage being. Hopefully some updates/renovations can bring the place back to its former glory.

    Famous opened in Prince George's County late December. The Facebook meetup group, DMV Does, really helped give this spot promotion, patrons, and exposure. I've been several times since it opened. If I recall, Monday was kaoroke, Tuesday was old school, Wednesday was hip hop, and I believe the weekend was more r&b. In terms of expectations, It's a neighborhood spot in a strip plaza. Despite that, The lounge restaurant is super modern, spacious, and gives the famous and vip experience Vibe. So, it has Potential.... I've had the oxtails and wings and they are pretty delicious . I've also had the lemon drop and side car and they are strong! The djs are pretty good and dj many parties and events outside of famous The only issue is it takes a long time to get your food and drinks. The place could benefit from being more upscale and doing live music, and networking events. I'm not in a rush to go back. But, it's always an option if you want with no cover , free parking, and in the Upper Marlboro area.

    Happy Hour EVERYDAY 4-8 PM

    When I think of Upper Marlboro, I don't think of a younger (20's-30's) hangout spot -- or really a turn-up spot in general. But looks like this place is finally changing that. Remember when the parking lot would only be full for the Amish Market or a random fair? Well, now it's gonna be full most days because of this new Black Woman-owned joint! I decided to go one early Friday evening and had to park near the CVS! I wanted to just grab a couple of birthday drinks but the place was absolutely packed! It looked lovely, but there were people everywhere -- the bar was full, people were standing behind it, and all the cool lounge areas were full. I had to step out, but I told myself I'd return. This happened last Thursday when I decided to meet a friend for happy hour (EVERYDAY from 4-8!!!). Thursday is a much calmer day than Friday -- in fact, the busiest days seem to be Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. So their happy hour menu is quite abundant -- having six $5 cocktails & shots each, $8 top shelf, apps starting at $5, $5 wine and more! I tried a good variety, but I think my fav is the Famous Sunrise just because of how unique it is -- it's their spin on a tequila sunrise and it's cool! I decided to get suya for food -- now, I don't know how suya is 'supposed' to taste, but I thoroughly enjoyed its flavor and texture. Well done! So the place itself is really nice. The loungy areas look comfy and are mostly self-seating unless it says Reserved. The bar is spacious enough and the QR code menu is easily accessible enough. The music was a vibe, lots of throwbacks and stuff. Only thing I will say is there were some lengthy gaps between the bartender checking on us, but I suspect they are still working out a lot of kinks and having impromptu meetings in the back and such. Otherwise, I wanna return and try more food. I hope this place does well!

    Best buffet style brunch I've had. Everything on the setup was delicious! We were pleased and stuffed. Not to mention the staff was very friendly and helpful. The DJ was on point. Started the morning relaxed with some r&b and built up to throwback gogo and good line dancing to work off that delicious food.

Then when it came to the bill we were charged $4 for each bottle (of which we were not even told there was a charge at all for water, and no we did not specifically ask for a sealed bottle all we asked for was water the sever never said tap or bottled, she just automatically brought us sealed) when on the menu they were priced at $3.50 sure it's .50 but when there was five that .50 extra could have almost bought another bottle. Also when she brought the bill she did not even show the itemized bill at first all she showed was the tip screen which upon doing the math from what we ordered vs paid we realized the amount was way higher than what we got and so we asked for the copy of the receipt only to find out there was ALREADY a service charge on there of which was NOT a credit card charge because we paid in cash and when asked what the cash total was she told us $60.31 yet the copy showed the cash price was $57.91 also they charge for charcoal, what am i suppose to do bring my own charcoal? i've never had to pay extra for charcoal they just include it with hookah price, absolutely ridiculous. Not to mention the vibes in this place is like an absolute funeral, all the pictures made this place look so fun and great, but no it was worse than funeral. I felt even more so like i was at a funeral after I realized how badly my wallet was robbed. I will never come back here.

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.
