| Have been there several times. It is quite nice, nothing special in terms of food, it is good but not outstanding, but nice atmosphere, prices can be reasonable, overall a nice experience but don't go expecting to be bowled over by the food. |

My last experience there was just awful. The food took forever to come, came out cold when it did finally arrive, no compensation and barely an apology offered. This was a family lunch on a Saturday (6 guests for a special occasion, including elderly grandparents) in May.
A few years ago, I had one nice brunch there and one nice dinner, but I see no reason to ever go back again. Lots of other places from which to choose. One strike and you're out! |

agree -- food is underwhelming, service haphazard, and interior forgettable -- though they chose interesting design materials
it's bethesda at its worst -- an open-air mall |

| I really wanted to like redwood because I like the atmosphere but the meal was awful and totally overpriced to boot. There were four of us at my table and none of us enjoyed our meal there. |

Overpriced place, but we still like it...

| Nice location, and I like their hamburgers. Also some good deals over happy hour. |

| Better food at Persimmon (although the setting isn't as good) and Food Wine & Co (although it can be loud). |

| Tuna tartare is better at Raku. |

| I go there for the drinks and that is about it. Although I did like the brussel sprouts. |

| I'm just waiting for their lease to end and have that restaurant be divided into smaller restaurants. |

| I can't remember what my husband and I got, but I do remember the portions are HUGE... so splitting is a good option. The food is ok, nothing special. |
