I must admit, this was a surprise. One of the best meals I have had in a very, very long time. You would never know it from the location and the looks of it. More like an upscale burger and bar place, but obviously the chef has some serious chops. We started with the grilled octopus. Seriously one of the... More

Had come highly recommended by some younger friends (mid 20's), and my wife and I (early 50's) were very disappointed. I couldn't understand about 25% of words on menu, and I've dined around the world. Server was nice, though provided too much info about meaningless details in an effort to make the menu seem gourmet. For example, I really didn't... More

Good selection of craft beers. The food was mediocre and pretty expensive. The service was quite good.

My wife and I visited on a Saturday afternoon for an early dinner before an evening commitment. We were seated at 5 p.m. and not greeted by our waiter until 5:10. He asked if we had time constraints. We said yes and also that we had been there for ten minutes waiting for him to come to the table. His... More

The restaurant is very comfortable and inviting. The moment the hostess greets you, you feel relaxed and welcome. Great bar with full menu, open kitchen in view, very comfortable dining area. The food is simple but creative, fresh, and delicious. Prices are reasonable to quality and dining experience. The fish special is well prepared, sauces are tasty and never too... More

After arriving in Bethesda late on a Sunday, my wife and I searched near our hotel for a restaurant and came upon Food Wine and Co. Usually we don't try a new restaurant without first looking at its menu, and in this case there was none posted outside, but we took a chance and weren't disappointed. The decor is elegant... More

This place was right across the street from our hotel, and we could not have been happier with the food. They had pretty much the best pizza crust I've ever tasted, an amazing truffle burger, and gruyere mac and cheese which is a must if you go here.

Francis does it again. Truly one of the best operators in the area, he knows how to combine a great looking restraunt, find awesome staff, and produce really good food. You always have a good time at his restaurants. Food and Wine is no exeption. Danny, the manager will make sure your treated like a VIP. The wine prices are... More

This was an Uno's Chicago-Style Pizza restaurant when I last visited (and worked) in Bethesda. But the new restaurant is nice - not great, but nice. Service was good, waiter very well trained in the specials and menu. But the menu was a bit disappointing. Too many burgers for a dinner menu, I thought, and not enough entrees. I had... More
