The worst TGIFridays in the country ![]() |
Same menu at Woodmont Grill in Bethesda! Including the yummy veggie burger. |
The Silver Spring location recently closed. It was never as good as the Rockville Pike spot. |
All in Bethesda/Chevy Chase:
Chatters Chadwick’s Armadillo Grill Tequila Sunrise Negril Athenian Plaka |
AV pizza |
Mongolian BBQ Bethesda
Chop Stix Muddy Branch Shopping Center Gaithersburg Michaels Noodles Travilah Square. |
soon after BDs closed I traveled to suburban Cincinnati and there, to our delight was a BDs Mongollian BBQ! But of course it just wasn’t as good. |
Anyone remember Dunmore’s on Bethesda Ave ? More of a bar than a restaurant but I had a lot of great times there in the 80’s. |
Bethesda in the 70’s and 80’s was vastly superior than the Bethesda of today. |
So many good ones named already!
I’ll add Roy’s in Gaithersburg. I’d love one more Pocohontas! |
Oh- and The Thai Room! |
Thai Pilin. It was a small Thai restaurant in Tyson’s, near the old Tower Records. Best PadThai I’ve ever had. |
DC Coast |
Donutchew in Vienna just closed. Those mochi donuts were amazing.
Not surprised they closed though; they weren’t open early—and it’s a donut place. Also it was expensive. |
I don’t remember anything else on the menu, but the Harry’s (and it had a different name before that I think) in Pentagon City had this amazing buckwheat bean burger. I still think of that burger sometimes. Of course now that I have fifteen years of cooking under my belt I can’t remember what it was that made it taste so amazing so I can’t try to recreate it. Maybe smoked paprika? |
