Located along MacArthur Blvd. between Glen Echo http://www.glenechopark.org/ and Great Falls http://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/greatfallstavernvisitorcenter.htm , Wild Tomato was an unexpected gem. From the outside, it doesn't look like anything - a sub shop in a stripmall which also has a sushi place, a small market, and a post office. (My friend and I were just looking for a quick snack to hold... More

Wild Tomato is a great neighborhood restaurant; I just wish it was in my neighborhood. Fortunately, it is close enough that we can head over regularly for lunch or dinner. This is a relatively small, informal restaurant with menu selections from the casual (pizza) to the fancy (steak frite). I have now been to the restaurant several times and have... More

Good spot, pretty good food but $9 for a draft IPA in Cabin John (one that's not rare)? Pretty ridiculous and unfortunately colors the experience.

They used to have a wonderful vegan burger option. They dropped it because they said it did not bind together well. I explained to them that it was wonderful and now I can't eat there as there are no really good options besides a garden salad and pasta. And no that is not what I go out to eat. When... More

Pleasant informal decor, good menu selections, outdoor seating, reasonable prices, ok wines, and they even have very nice oil and vinegar to dress the salad! Parking can be a bit tight, but don't let that stop you from going!!

Mw wife and I (seniors) and 27 year old son enjoyed our meal. Only negative is they don't take reservations, but at 6:15, we had only a 15 minute wait. Portions were fair-sized, quality -salmon, hamburger, shortrib sliders, salads- all was good. Wine and beer selection surprisingly good, a nice opportunity to try canned craft beers.

A hush falls over the table as dishes are served....YUM! Highly recommend both this and the owners other restaurant, Persimmon, in downtown Bethesda with easy parking behind the building! Great food,... More

My wife and I found this little gem after searching for a lunch spot between our two jobs. I say gem because it is located where there are no other restaurants, kinda have to be looking for it to know its there. We ordered the Zesty Buffalo Wings as an appetizer (5 Stars) I had the cheeseburger (5 stars) and... More

Went with my wife and daughter. I got the fish tacos (blackened). Love them. Real tasty. On another roc casino my friend liked his burger. Happy place to go for a bite in a desolate area for decent restaurant.

Noise level is almost as important to me as fooid quality. Dining out should be an enjoyable social experience. If conversation is impossible, even the best food does not make it a good experience.
