Best Restaurants with Great Beer in Potomac

A group of 4 wanted to split a lot of our lunch choices...plus the checks. No problem. Not only were they accommodating of all of that, our choices came to us already split. Not all restaurants would do that. Staff is charming and knowledgeable. Prices are good. Et Viola is one of my go-to restaurants for good reason. We had mussels, salads and French Onion soup by the way.

Surface was pretty slow, honestly but food was still good

I was both pleasantly surprised and pleased at my first dinning experience at the Trio Grill. The food and service were outstanding. The piano added greatly to the ambiance. We had happy hour specials before being seated for dinner. Happy hour specials were a great value. I think the winning meal among the four of us who dined was the crab cakes.

Everything was good, and I would recommend it to others. The appetizers for happy hour were great!

If you’re looking for a restaurant experience that blends fantastic flavors with a cozy, rustic vibe, this spot absolutely delivers! From the moment you step inside, the warm, earthy decor sets the scene for a meal that feels both comforting and exciting. The atmosphere is all about laid-back charm, with wood accents and soft lighting that make it easy to settle in and enjoy every moment. Now, let’s talk food—because it’s the true star here! Every dish is packed with flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. Each bite feels crafted with care, and you can tell the chefs take pride in their work. Whether it’s a hearty entrée or a delicate appetizer, the balance of flavors is spot on, making for a truly memorable dining experience. One tiny hitch was the spicy mezcal cocktail I ordered. It looked beautiful and started with a nice, smoky kick, but the spice level was a bit intense! If you’re into a big punch of heat, it might be right up your alley. For me, though, it was just a little too fiery, but that’s easy to overlook when everything else was stellar. Overall, this place is a gem for anyone who loves great food and a rustic, inviting setting. I’m already planning my next visit—and maybe trying a different drink this time!
