    We have eaten here many times and never had a meal that didn't come piping hot and delicious. The portions are amazing and it is hard to find a restaurant that includes a salad with dinners in addition to hot bread with oil and parmesan dip to start. The manager, Jad, pays attention to what is happening in real time and makes certain things go smoothly. The noise level is a problem but not enough to keep us from returning. Vacarro's cannoli's are out-of-this-world!

    Waitress was absolutely wonderful. We had a birthday luncheon for a friend and she was given extra care. Waitress couldn’t do enough for our table of four.

    This was probably my fourth time at the restaurant. Love the ambience today and the service was about as good as it gets today. The food is slightly high in pricing but the rustic theme and energy tied with reliably good food makes it a place your can repeatedly enjoy and rely on. I just had a burger and ceasar salad but that along with a great double IPA from a large on tap selection made it just right for lunch with a very good friend. I was seated immediately and the staff led my later arriving to me without a fuss. Parking was ample and access from the beltway was a breeze. Will be coming back.

    Interesting mix of Maryland and Spanish tapas. Definitely ask for the large Paella which isn't on their menu.
