    My tab..the bartender charged us more for her shot than our singles, I work in the industry so she just charged us extra to make more money
    Janelle M.

    The service was the absolute worst. I had to tell the "bartenders" what Tito's was multiple times. We bought the bartender multiple shots and charged us way more that what our actual shot was for a single. I work in the industry and trying to be nice we bought shots for the bartender and she charged us more for her single shot than ours. If my single shot of Tito's is 10.00 Why is your shot $17 this is ridiculous. Never order a double from this place this is horrible!! And to top it off we tip more than the 15% already added on to be nice...

    From the outside, you can never really tell if it's open. Here's the deal with that though from what I gather. The old Calvert House Inn had two "rooms". Lesley's essentially is just one of those rooms, so if you park out back, go in through the door by Lynn Animal Hospital. It's been seemingly maybe open for a few months now, but I can never tell if it's actually open, and there are NO reviews about it anywhere. We walked in the door, and the gold cup match between Panama and Mexico was about to begin on the four huge TV screens. The faces of both of the people that work there were had the faint glow cast from their phone screens reflecting back. The Latin music was loud. I mean loud like a sports bar loud. We were the only patrons on a Wednesday night. This did not bode well. We were about to choose our table, so we sat at a booth. The booth seemed like the table was just a few inches too narrow for how far away the seats were though. I thought that was kind of weird. We were given multicolor tortilla chips with some salsa. Hmmm. Not homemade chips, watery salsa, the only patrons and loud loud music? We were willing to stick it out. I'm very glad we did! The watery salsa was actually quite tasty. The chips were standard thin tortilla chips, nothing special. We got the fried yuca and chicharones appetizer, and holy guacamole! The yuca was fried to absolute perfection. You know when you get fries and the outside is crispy and the inside is almost creamy? Yeah. That. The chicharones were great too. Not too crunchy and not too salty with a nice balance of meat and fat. Up next, the sopa de res. I've had this dish at a number of places, and it's never been as good as I had here. The broth was also not as salty as many other places. It was delicious and totally hit the spot. There was yuca, corn, beef ribs, cabbage and a few other veggies and a ripe plantain that I initially thought was an eggplant. It's sweetness threw me a little bit, but I eat weird things, so whatever. My wife got carne asado tacos, and they were yummy too. They come with a green sauce that is a little creamy. Do you eat Peruvian or roasted chicken at some of these pollo places? Do you know that green sauce? Well, it's just like that but creamy. A little less green, but just as much rock and roll spicy. The frijoles were the only thing that was pretty salty, but not too badly. Honestly, I feel like they kind of balanced out the salt nicely. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is the sound system and music issue. It was mega loud in there. My wife and I had to lean in to hear each other speak, and granted, it was the Gold Cup game, but there were clearly at least two zones, one for the bar, and the other for the dining area. We asked the guy that was taking care of the sound to turn it down a little bit, and he did. After a few minutes, the music started up very loudly again for like two songs. I really do hope that they figure out the music and sound levels, because the food was spot on, and we could use another great restaurant in that particular area. I'm not claiming that I know what authentic Salvadorean or Latin food should taste like, but it was straight up delicious and I'll definitely go back. After all, they do have desayuno! (breakfast!)

My future husband drives to me to make life easier and he now knows the rule, 5 mile radius because we've got flights to catch and moves to make. Ambiance: Casual-ish depends on the day, sometimes people are super dressy but it's most def casual dining. Watch your step the floors are slick and slippery. Service: For the most part it's good. Let's get into it! They change their menu so much that it makes it hard to really like something and come back for it, not sure I like this concept. Bolognese - Hard Pass - Needs seasoning. Fish Sandwich- Needed Salt Happy Hour Menu switches often too so I'll just say this, play it safe with the sauces on things and ask for it on the side. Especially the different shrimp options, you'll thank me later. Salads are solid! Overall Burtons is a Riverdale community staple, it does the job by convenience but def not my fave nor a top place to frequent.

    You never know what you are going to get from a hotel…read morerestaurant. PrimeTime is a 5 star experience based on its menu and service. Nice atmosphere with many tables. Looks like it might get crowded on weekends or for sporting events. TV's ring the perimeter with lots of choices. We had an excellent Crab Cake BLT with fries and a beautiful piece of Honey Salmon. We ordered the Fresh Rye Bread that hit the spot and finished with good Bread Pudding. Everything was spot on! I have done a review on the College Park Hotel Cambia that houses PrimeTime. It's really a strong 4 **** or 5***** that some have rated a 3 ***. We will stay here again thane next time we visit Bethesda. We will also explore the PrimeTime menu while staying at Cambria.

She was a ray of sunshine and gave us help in deciding on menu items. We both ordered salads. I ordered the crab and shrimp Louis salad. And, my friend ordered a chicken salad. Our salads were huge, fresh, and delicious. I really liked the fresh veggies and poached shrimp. I also liked the surprise sprinkle of Old Bay on my seafood. I wasn't a fan of the crabmeat. The dressing was delicious too. My friend liked her chicken salad. She did say her chicken was a little dry. But, she loved all of the fresh veggies and ended up taking the leftovers home. I also ordered the Oreo cheesecake which was delicious. I mean come on now, you combine Oreo's and cheesecake, that is a winning combination and the whipped cream was amazing. The restaurant itself was bright, colorful, and full of sea themed decor. The booth was comfortable and you get 3 hours of free parking in the garage. Again, thanks Fatima for your excellent service. We will definitely be back.

I am on their email list (and yes I read most of my emails that are of interest to me) and noted they had an Oktoberfest kick off party happening this week on Thursday evening from 6pm -9pm in their outside patio, so decided to come here. We showed up at 6pm on the dot and the place outside was already packed with people. They were having a live Oktoberfest trio band play, so that was cool! A lot of people were in their Oktoberfest garb/outfits, which was adorable. The challenge was getting a beer and a non alcoholic drink for my mom. They had nothing NA for her and she ended up just having a glass of ice water. I got in the mobbed line and had a Kellerbier, which was brewed especially for Franklin's and Oktoberfest. They had an issue with their handheld payment device so that made the line longer. Beer was fine, but wished I could have gotten my mom a lemonade or iced tea. The other issue was the seating. We opted to sit over in the sandbox/kids area and the picnic tables didnt feel like the best use of space. The trio band was lovely and played some nice tunes including Edelweiss which is one of my favorite songs ever (yes I loved The Sound of Music and have watched this so many times as a kid with my mom) but it would have been nice to see the band more in the center of things, closer to the bar hut. They were serving up German sausages and huge pretzels but the line for beverages and food was so long that I didnt bother to purchase food. This was a great idea and I hope that the next one they do, they can iron out some of the wonky kinks. I'd come back again for an Oktoberfest for sure. My mom and I had a great time!

    I've passed by Habit Burger so many times while going grocery shopping at Whole Foods right across…read morethe way, and I finally decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did because the burgers were really good! Very tasty, well-seasoned, and packed with flavor. I got a side of sweet potato fries, which were nice and crispy--definitely a good choice. I also really liked the little jalapeño and pepper bar where you can grab some extras to add to your burger. Their house drinks were surprisingly good too! I would definitely come back when I'm craving a quick burger. My only suggestion would be to add an extra patty if you're really hungry because the burgers aren't quite as big as something you'd get from Five Guys or, for anyone who remembers it, the old Fuddruckers lol. But nonetheless, everything was really good, flavorful, and satisfying. Definitely a spot I'd pick up from again!

The location I visit is in Riverdale and it has a nice amount of seating inside and out. Service was fast and extremely friendly both times and the manager knew the regulars by name which was impressive. If you're ever in the mood for a great tasting burger, give Habit Burger a go.. you'll love it!
