I have never been to Mrs. K's, but it was a go to restaurant for friend families 30 years ago. My husband suggested it for dinner for our anniversary and I asked if it was still a good restaurant. does anyone know?
I'd also take recommendations for where to go somewhere in close-in suburban Maryland all the way from Takoma Park west to Potomac or in downtown. Thanks |
| It's actually a lot better than it was 30 years ago. |
| Personally, I think it's terrible. Excessively salted, designed for elderly people. What about founding farmers in Rockville/Potomac? |
| Based on what I have heard, if this is your 60th anniversary, it would be a perfect choice. For something else in Silver Spring that is a little more interesting, try Jackie's. They have a $45 four course chef's tasting menu. |

I was very disappointed in Mrs. K's recently (went to the Sunday buffet).
15 years ago I had gone for dinner (fixed price menu) - loved it. I was sad that the buffet was so bad! |
How dare elderly people have a chance to dine out and enjoy themselves!! Jerk. |
I saw nothing wrong with that (I'm not the PP). Some restaurants target elderly people as their clientele for that reason -- so they can go out and enjoy themselves also. I'd add Pines of Rome in Bethesda as an elderly people joint. |
| Not good. Try Republic in Takoma Park. So good! |

| We have been a couple of times because we live close by. I can't say I'd recommend it. I honestly think the food is better at Clyde's / Old Ebbitt, and Mrs. K's is not cheap. The menu is also limited. The last time we went I swore never again- nothing sounded all that appealing to me. When the food arrived, it was fine, but nothing special. |
| Republic in Takoma Park is not only much better than Mrs. K's, it's a lot more fun. Great food and vibe. |
| Other good options are 8407 Kitchen Bar, Scion or Urban Butcher, all in downtown Silver Spring |

There are definitely better options nearby. It's an old person's restaurant, for sure. We keep trying it, but...
We got married there, and it's lovely, just - there are better options. |
