We’re known for wood-fired pizzas, mini burgers, fresh salads and chef-inspired entrées, like pan-seared sea bass and oven-roasted filet mignon. It’s American bistro fare, crafted from high quality ingredients with a chef at the helm in every kitchen.Matchbox draws in passersby with oversized windows lining the sidewalk and a front-row view of the blazing pizza oven. Once indoors, the vibe remains warm and residential, as though guests are being welcomed into the Matchbox home. The design achieves this effect through elements like draperies to soften some of the more industrial edges and add texture, open shelving and wine displays, light gray wood wainscotting, and hardwood flooring throughout to lend natural warmth. Hand-painted murals from local artists add further context to the neighborhood, and bring in a touch of personality as well.Outdoor seating on patios along both Woodmont Avenue and Elm Street offer plentiful people-watching in warmer months.

    Patrick was our server and was outstanding. Our group staggered their arrivals and the food came in a timely fashion so we all had our meals at the same time. Patrick was very attentive to refilling drinks, etc.

    What a delight to find this gem in Bethesda! The chef is talented, every dish was perfectly prepared and presented, easily on par or better than places charging twice as much, locally or in the district. The owner’s warm welcome, the excellent service and easy parking (a rarity in Bethesda) assure that we’ll be back often.

    Mo is a superlative server. Nice decor. Users of the health club directly above the restaurant cause noise when they drop weights on the floor. Menu could use more variety. For example a chicken dish. shrimp scampi or shrimp with noodles could be made using product already on the menu.
