Tastes like school food, burgers are bland, the pork belly was horrible, the chili tasted absolutely absurd and the fries tasted like old grease. Do not waste your time here, overpriced for the quality of food. Service was terrible. The only good thing about this place was that the water didn’t taste like tap. 1/10

Me and my partner waited until the last minute, of course to get a reservation anywhere else so I was surprised this place even had availability. It was a ghost town but the decorations were beautiful, the food was amazing and the grinch drinks were delicious. It was all such a nice surprise. We will be back again.

This restaurant is in the bottom of the Bethesdan Hotel and is more of a cafe, definitely not a restaurant. The Grinch Experience only consists of special menu items. They should be embarrassed.

I enjoyed the short rib quesadilla and chili, and my friend had a salad with steak. The lighting is a bit too bright for my liking but the decor is casual and relaxed.

It was basically empty on a Saturday night, which was a red flag. Setting was pleasant - comfortable. Server was attentive. Food was overpriced and mediocre. Bethesda has much better restaurant options.
