- KKevinVIPSan Diego •2 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoGreat time and the food was delicious. But I pulled out my receipt from exactly two years ago (we go as a tradition this time of year). The fried rice app goes from $6 to $7.50. The Colossal Shrimp went from $36 to $44. And the Splash-and-Meadow went from $39 to $48.50. Are you kidding me??!? You raise your prices 25% across the board in two years? Ridiculous. I know inflation is a factor but that’s straight up crazy. Goodbye!More infoBenihana - Bethesda, MDPrice: Moderate• Japanese• Bethesda•4.2
- BBetsyWashington, D.C. Area •21 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoAs always, the food and service at Silver were excellent. It was a very busy night; they served the crowd really well. We asked for sauce served on the side on one order, and to have one of their excellent desserts divided into two separate servings; those special requests were handled perfectly. Each of us enjoyed a delicious meal served exactly the way we wanted it.More infoSilverPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Bethesda•4.5
- FFabioBaltimore / Maryland •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoEverything is excellent. They just need to lower music a little bit and play something more soothing (eg Soft Jazz, Bossa Nova), that constant loud drum beat can be annoying at times. No one likes that music they play. Other than that, everything was great. Reading worth it.More infoMedium Rare - BethesdaPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Bethesda•4.6
- JJackVIPWashington, D.C. Area •36 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 19, 2024We have dined here more than once and have never been disappointed. We are particularly partial to the "chef's special", a selection of appetizers and small dishes. There is a vegetarian and and meat-eater's version. Both are outstanding. The other interesting thing about Passage of India is the variety of Indian cuisines represented on the expansive menu. There is something for everyone and lots to explore. All is well prepared and nicely presented. Staff is friendly and informative. Highly recommendedMore infoPassage to India - BethesdaPrice: Moderate• Indian• Bethesda•4.6
- JJuliaNew York City •12 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 18, 2024Delicious food! We asked for a quiet part of the restaurant, and the hostess seated us in their back room. For most of the meal, we had that space all to ourselves and we were able to enjoy the food, the drinks, and the conversation. That made a perfect evening!More infoBarrel & CrowPrice: Moderate• American• Bethesda•4.5
