I finally got around to visiting SOKO Butcher Shop & man was it worth it! WOW!…read more I got the Philly, and it was worth the hype. A top tier cheesesteak that rivals anything I've had in the area, Baltimore & Philadelphia. 10/10 The wife got The Butcher on Ciabatta w/ chimichurri, horseradish aioli, arugula roasted tomato. She devoured that thing --(not AI, I've always written like this lol) well, what she could bc our sandwiches were massive. 8/10 My daughter, Paris got the wings with fries and she loved her meal as well. All in all, this was a great experience. The lady at the cash register was very friendly and helpful when I purchased my cuts of meat to make burgers later at home, the space was clean, and food came out within 15 minutes. Funny story, it was my bday so I knew my Dad was coming by my house later in the evening so I saved him half of my cheesesteak bc I couldn't eat it all, and I really wanted him to try it. After initially refusing, he finally tasted it and said it was the best he's ever had, and this was hours later, after warming it up in the microwave. He asked me to send the address, and that this would be his new go to spot. Lol Definite 5 stars.

I ordered a sandwich with bacon on it but they didn't add the bacon. It's an up charge so if they…read moredidn't have it the charge should have been refunded. The service is always bad and the food is expensive so the least they can do is get the order right. When you walk in no one acknowledges you even if you're the only customer there. When they finally do they act as if they're doing you a favor by taking your order...no smile, no welcome in...nothing. One time I was there, several people were in the store and the workers were laughing and talking behind the counter. About three minutes went by before I asked if someone could hand me my order. Right after that a customer who had been there before me asked if they could order, so there's no telling how long they had been waiting before I spoke up. It's never a pleasant experience. It's a local neighborhood spot so I try to support but at this point they're playing in my face.

Double stuffed cheesesteak If this was the double meat, I…read morehate to see the regular that episode have to be skimpy as hell. Positives the bread was extremely soft, reminded me of a steam bun. They were very stingy with the everything toppings, literally a couple of pieces of lettuce, barely any, so scarce that I thought they forgot to put them on there. The steak was bland and lacked seasoning. For the up charge for the double meat, the amount that you got and the limited amount of toppings this really missed a mark. Wings I got the soy garlic sauce, I liked that it was a light sauce. The wings were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. For the price, I was not expecting very small party wings like my fingers were longer than some of those wings. I get that it's Silver Spring, however, the price point should match the quality and portions. Well, this place didn't feed my soul; perhaps it does yours.

We ordered our beers, wings and LA galbi bowl. The spicy soy wings were nicely flavored with enough kick that I ordered another 10 wings to bring home. My friend Danielle ordered the sweet and spicy which she could have devoured but decided to keep some to bring home. The other gal order the LA galbi bowl with runny egg - she devoured it too and it is new to the menu. We were a little disappointed that they have removed the ramen to the menu - that is why it is scored as 4 star. The person manning the bar was pretty attentive. Mike's is just a comfortable place to catch up with friends - not busy or crowded! Highly recommend their Korean Chicken Wings!

Nice solid roll, real gravy, tender beef, and plenty of napkins provided without asking. Could have used a knife and fork, it was so juicy even without the side of extra gravy.

We got a pastrami Reuben and a "Corned Beef and Pastrami". Each was on toasted rye that was perfectly prepared. A good portion of meat on each and I have to say, an excellent deli sandwich. And the price of each ($8.99) is very reasonable. We also got a side of potato salad and side of cole slaw. Both were good and the container is very generous for $2.99 each. There's a variety of chips available and a soda fountain with free refills. Limited seating. The staff there were friendly and appreciative of the business. It's a really nice place to stop in for a sandwich. I likely will try one of their entree salads next time. Breakfasts sound good on the menu also. We don't come to the area often, but this will be our new go-to lunch spot.

Their grilled chicken breast sub has remained one of my favorites, and the taste has consistently stayed great throughout the years.

I generally love Caesar dressing, but theirs is top tier. I don't think I've ordered it in years, but hopefully the taste has also remained the same. I'll probably order during my next visit!

Parking is challenging at peak times. The selection of baked goods is varied and fresh. The line to buy items can get long. There's a decent-sized space to "eat-in", should you want. The sweet potato/chili/pistachio bialy is quite a creation, really like it, zings big time. I've never seen that flavor combo in a bialy before and hope they keep making it. The gingerbread with meyer lemon glaze has a very deep ginger flavor that's quite memorable. Not as keen about the breads. The community sandwich loaf is too plain for me and the sourdough breads are tame.

The parking lot is crowded and a bit of a mess. Coming on a weekend meant waiting in line, and it was not a speedy line. The selection was interesting, but they were struggling to keep up with demand. I ordered the last piece of multiple styles of baked goods, which I suspect was upsetting for the people behind me but which was a decision that worked out well for the recipients of my haul. The loaf was richly sour and the butter I got with it tasted cultured, the other pastries and things I tried didn't quite leave the same impression. Maybe coming at a less busy time yields a better selection.

The chicken over rice (I only ate a spoonful) was hearty. The "hmmmms": I put the chicken and fries in the air fryer to get an added crunch. Flavorful, but just okay. To be fair, wings have to have a specific flavor and texture in order for me to truly enjoy them. I totally understand the process of what makes something halal, including what gives the chicken the red color, but this chicken was simply too red for me to eat, like beet red. Again, the portions are hearty and it had a nice flavor. If you like foods prepared on the softer side, you'd like Naz's.
