If you are a M&S fan, then this restaurant will please you, like all the others. But like the others I've eaten in, I find that the meals seem chain-like. A high quality chain, to be sure, but not homemade and not cooked to excel. More like cooked not to fail.

This is also a very, very noisy place to eat. if you are over 40, you'll likely have trouble hearing the conversation at your table.

Went for family dinner with party of 10. Expected to eat together and enjoy tasty food. We sat for 2 hours before last person was finally served dinner. Others were served dinner three at a time every 15 minutes or so. Waiter attributed service problems to “problems in the kitchen”. Management didn’t seem to care. Food preparation was barely fair. Avoid this restaurant-Bethesda has many other options.

This was a very pretty place with very good seafood. Unfortuneately, it closed its Bethesda location right after we visited.

what a dump, went for group dinner, got hosed. steak was dry like a rubber band, spaghetti was cold and burnt at the same time. service was painfully slow and price was ridiculously expensive. save your money, you are better off at McDonald's.
