I shared a cheese pizza with my daughter, my mother had the chicken piccata, my cousin the gnocchi, my father the chicken parm, my cousin had a caprese salad and the further seats I couldn't see. We all shared a few orders of the calamari. EVERYONE raved about how delicious their food was. I agree. Probably the best piccata I've tasted. The pizza was excellent. The tiramisu great.

There is a small gravel parking lot (it shares a wall with China East) and seems very conveniently placed between neighborhoods. There isn't any place to sit indoors so this definitely a delivery/carryout place. It has been 3 years since my last order and a few things have changed about the menu. The garlic sauce is now an add-on, they have expanded their menu to include wings and vegan options, and now there's an option for a half and half specialty pizza (medium size and larger). Upon picking up the pizza, the gentleman asked if I would like cilantro on the pizza since it is the normal garnish. I ordered a medium half butter chicken and half chicken tikka. The crust has a slight sweetness to it, or maybe it was the sauce with the butter chicken. The chicken was tender and flavorful, the sauce was just the right amount to add flavor without making it a soggy pizza. The green pepper and red onions were diced small which made it easier to eat while also keeping the nice crunch texture. The chicken tikka half had a marinara sauce for the base and the chicken was a bit dry for my preference ( I prefer saucier things). Overall it's a decent pizza and I would like to try some of their other menu items.

Reason for my visit: Craving Stuffed Chicago Style Pizza Having visited Chicago numerous times I had become a fan of their style of pizza. A thin crust with a block of cheese in it and sauce on top. It is great. I had been to numerous places claiming to have "Chicago Style Stuffed Pizza"... which were just deep dish pizza with some extra cheese and toppings. I searched all over the area for a recommendation to my favorite style of pizza in the area and Siena's popped up. The one thing that everyone said was that they were vegetarian. While I do enjoy meat on my pizza, I respect this. My partner loves just cheese pizza so we are set anyway. I called and ordered the pizza that I was hoping was going to be the closest thing I got to back home. I set for pick up and they told me how long it would take. Now a good Stuffed Pizza takes time, which is what this would do. Picked up the pizza and my partner and I got it home and it was EXACTLY what I wanted... it was amazing. We had been there numerous times since. The owner is super nice, in fact the last time I was there the owner and I discussed classic black and white silent films while I waited for my pizza. Short story: If you love GREAT customer service, delicious food, and AUTHENTIC CHICAGO PIZZA - Siena's is the place in the Rockville area. read more

I called Siena's at 2:00 PM on a Thursday and asked if they might be able to make me a platter/s of tuna, egg salad and veggie wraps. I thought I might be calling a bit too close to the time I needed them (I needed them by Friday morning), but they didn't blink an eye and told me I could pick the platters up at 7:00 PM Thursday evening. I couldn't believe my eyes. For a very reasonable price, there stood 4 gorgeously arranged platters of wraps, packaged thoughtfully. But it only got better. I served them the following morning to my out-of-town guests and family who came in for my son's Bar Mitzvah and they LOVED them. (I loved them too!) They particularly liked the egg salad and veggie ones. We had enough to use Sunday morning again for people who wanted to take wraps on their way out of town. Seamless execution on the part of the Siena's owner and staff. Would order again from them in a heartbeat. read more

Superior pizza in a town and a state where most of the pizza ranges from pretty bad to terrible (compared to NY/NJ/Boston). Siena's is vegetarian (dairy) and Kosher, so a great place to get non-meat pepperoni and the like. The menu has a mixture of Mexican/American and Italian/American food, which sounds a little weird but works out really great for our family which may be ordering a burrito, pizza, and pasta on any given evening. This is a fast food restaurant where you order at the counter, but it is cleaner, more relaxed, and more pleasant than most fast food joints. Some nice touches like the staff brings the food to your table and there are some real plates and cups in addition to disposable paper/plastic. You don't feel like you are being processed on an assembly line. The owner and workers are all very nice and try to make sure that the customers are all happy. read more

My wife and I come here every week because we love the food, which is ovo/lacto vegetarian and fish. My wife's favorites are the eggplant parmigiana and the chili soup, and I have a few favorites: pizza, calzone, aush (a spinach noodle soup), khatchapuri (a bread boat for egg and cheese, from Georgia in Asia), and shakshuka. We've also enjoyed their fish tacos, quesadillas, falafel sandwiches, Ultimate Nachos, taco salad, and seasoned fries (which are extra delicious). They have Impossible Burgers and Impossible Kebabs. This restaurant can also accommodate various dietary requirements (e.g., vegan, non-dairy, etc.) The owners are gracious and friendly. There is both outside and inside dining in pleasant surroundings. My wife and I highly recommend this dining treasure. read more

It is a cute restaurant located off of Boiling Brooke Parkway in Rockville, Maryland. The inside is decorated with warm woods and shelves and freezers filled with Italian frozen entrees, desserts, and sauces. As you walk up to the counter, you are warmly welcomed. I ordered the Italian cold cut sub and the meatball sub. They have a huge assortment of chips. I am really regretting not picking up a package of my favorite chips. Next time... Service was great. The gentleman who waited on me couldn't have been nicer. It took about 5 minutes for my food to be ready and I was out the door. I want to echo other reviewers, when I say there are no tables or chairs for eating. This is strictly order your food and take it with you. My meatball sub was delicious. It was packed with large portions of meatballs, that were roasted in a tasty marinara sauce. The roll was fresh and soft. I highly recommend this sub. The Italian sub was good, but it was crying out for a little lettuce and tomato. I know that they offer the sub with a green sauce, but I found the taste of the sauce oily and too parsley heavy. I was really glad I had it put on the side. Other than that, the Italian meats were tasty and the sub roll fresh and tender. Prices were reasonable, it was about $20 for both subs.

We ordered a hot porchetta sub, cold cut sub, and homemade pappardelle with pesto cream sauce. The owner helped us choose a "soft" sub roll for the porchetta and a "hard" Italian baguette for the cold cut sub. The food was all very tasty and felt like we traveled to a simpler time where ingredients shine for themselves. The porchetta was tender and flavorful, and together with the soft roll, kind of reminded me of a Taiwanese gua bao or Cantonese charsiu bao. It was incredible and smelled so delicious! The cold cut sub was simple and well balanced, and good with the harder baguette. Lastly, the handmade pappardelle was delightfully chewy and reminded me of Chinese hand pulled noodles. Didn't expect to have such parallels with Chinese food- and I enjoyed reflecting on how different cultures can come to have similar tastes and values. Next time we'll have to try their desserts and more of their menu! Can't wait to come back. Go check out this gem in Rockville, and experience a taste of Italy!

Oh Mama Grill

Wow, Oh Mama Grill sure has gotten an upgrade! Beautiful tiles, love the black-and-white, crisp,…read moreclean look, and new booths -- though I didn't try sitting in one yet, didn't think to as I was on a mission to get to all the Israeli restaurants around for and on Israel Independence Day, ha ha! (And yes! I succeeded!) The benches are a light, bright-looking wood. There are also regular tables for those who prefer that .... It's amazing how much spacious seating is packed into this little place! I wish the outside reflected the new, light beauty but I guess the treasure is only to be found by those who venture in .... As an Israeli-in-America, I appreciate the selection of Israeli drinks in the cooler, and of course the national snack of falafel! Some say they don't put fries in the pitas -- well, yeah! That's true! If you don't ask, you don't receive! I ask! I receive! I do sometimes find the sandwiches to be kind of messy, so I try to sometimes get less various salads and pickles and such so it's not completely overflowing -- because this place is GENEROUS! Of course, if you're not used to kosher food, you'll probably not understand that it does cost more because for one thing (out of many!), there has to always be an 'extra' person called a mashgiach (supervisor in Hebrew) who oversees everything to make sure it's all, well, kosher! Kosher meat is more expensive, too. And yeah, meat doesn't come with dairy! So that is not available. I heard someone asking if they had a cheeseburger and had to work to not crack up about it! I LOVE the grilled eggplant bits you can get put in -- they're special, not in the regular line up, right there at the end -- because not only do they add so much flavour and texture with so little bulk, but eggplant is one of those things I usually cannot eat because it hurts my oh-so-sensitive tongue, but this place makes it per-fect-ly, mmm ... ! So delicious! I enjoy both purple and green cabbage and carrots, but I don't like the flavour of the onions. That makes me sad, because I LOVE onions, but these ones have something on them that I don't like (looks like it's sumac -- which is ironic, because that's something that I normally love and use all the time!) and I end up picking out when I sometimes forget or get hopeful and just get them again anyway .... Actually, the onions are one of the few condiments here I do not like! The pickled beets are great -- and of course, great for your liver! They are cleansing, nutritious, and boost your Russian-ness, to boot! Or your Russian Jewishness, anyway .... I know that eating them makes my grandmother proud! The benefits of eating here are not and are also not like ones you can attain in just any regular restaurant, and it's here for people who want this kind of thing. It literally is a cornerstone, being on the corner and providing the things certain of us need -- Israeliness, Jewishness, kosherness, etc. It's too bad it suffers from bad reviews by people who don't understand or care. By the way, the work that goes into making all these salad items fresh every day is, let's just say, a LOT! I almost always get the falafel -- I used to get a platter, but it was too much for a meal so I switched back to the classic pita version and that's a perfect amount for me for a meal, plus I feel it's better for the environment because it comes packaged minimally in a little parchment paper rather than a recyclable aluminum plate with a non-recyclable aluminum-and-paper top. Truth be told, I could have trouble finishing writing this review because thinking of Oh Mama Grills' falafel is making me so hungry! I am really getting in the mood for some right now! Other things I eat from here regularly (and have for years): Israeli salad Moroccan (vegetarian) cigars Rice Other things I know are great by way of seeing the delight on my eating partner's face while consuming: Okay, I so I don't remember, but various meat things! Chicken, I think .... Things I don't love from Oh Mama Grill: Bean soup -- didn't have enough flavour for me .... Sabich. I dunno. Just didn't love it! It's hard to top falafel, in my opinion -- well, this falafel from this place, that is -- so I don't feel the need to explore the menu very much .... There aren't a whole lot of places (if any!) that offer such a variety of salads, pickles, and sauces! As an absolute pickle-lover who finds pickles and not just that but a variety of pickles a MUST for my diet, this place has it going on like no other! Update! Tried sitting on a bench at a booth! It's pretty hard, not super-comfortable, but doable -- however, a harder seat is better for your posture and health long-term! The falafel pita with toppings aplenty is so delicious, I am craving one right now ... and, in case you've ever tried some of the marinated types of vegetables here and found them too sour, I did too! Now, that is fixed. They are no longer so sour, and are therefore much more eminently edible! My eating partner agrees.

Since being sent into the office in Rockville I have driven past Oh Mama Grill every morning and…read moreafternoon and have thought about stopping for a visit. Well the day finally came when hubs was picking me up & we had time to kill before our evening plans. I had mentioned this place several times while driving past it & we decided to make a stop. It's basically a take out place with some fast food restaurant style booths. You place your order, you pay, and you wait for ur food to be prepped. Unfortunately this was a let down. His burger was sad, looked like someone had worked out their aggression on it. Seriously, I've never seen any burger & bun that flattened. It was my mistake, I was excited because of the description (it contained lamb) but wasn't anywhere close to the Greek burger we get in VA, I'm not sure it was even up the fast food level, although it was definitely in competition for flatness. My dish was composed a lot of very dry meat. I'm no longer considering a stop as I drive.

Folks answered the phone bc I needed to make a modification not available on the app and they came through nicely- no prolonged AI answering the phone, or long holds. The fire burning oven was beautiful and visible. The pizzas came out super fresh and hit the spot. Would be interested in other menu items like apps and sandwiches around lunch time next time. Also love this little plaza- plenty of parking and patrons here are easy going.
