    I can’t stand you charge $3.95 per person just for the privilege of eating there. Is that how you financed Mon Ami Gabi in Bethesda? Food is over priced and not interesting. Good location

    Great expierence! Our server Derek was very accommodating and good energy. refreshing weather so sat outside, love the lay out! my daughter loved the fries and the fruit plate and of course her birthday cake cookie! The shrimp linguine was delicious and the fish and chips as well. Ice cream sandwich was only underwhelming part! But over all great place. Would come back.
