"The restaurant is a very good, dependable restaurant. Food is satisfying with a wide range of choices, including many for food lovers and many for under 600 calories. It works well for a date, dining out with the wife, business meeting, gathering of friends, and more. All is consistent. Sadly, the parking is consistent too -- in a very negative way. They have valet parking (no longer free), and it usually takes 7-15 minutes to retrieve your car (unacceptable for a moderately expensive restaurant). Last time, they actually LOST the car keys; it took 35 minutes to find them. Recommendation: take public transportation, public parking lot, taxi or walk, but not your car!"

"The Daily Grill is a good "go to" restaurant which offers a nice selection of appetizers, salads and entrees. The food is not exceptional, but always adequate and our server was delightful. Drinks, unfortunately, were not adequate. My cosmopolitan had far too much lime juice in it and the Sapphire Martini my friend ordered, was watery. This is disappointing when you are paying $11.50 for a cocktail. Stick with a glass of wine!"

"A group of us had been going to the Bethesda Daily Grill for a long time before performances at Round House Theater. It was convenient. We had stopped because of the poor service that we had received and the loud music. The food was consistently good, but when you have to track down your waiter to take your order, to get served, and to get the bill, it was too frustrating to continue and we had changed to another nearby restaurant.
In the playbill from Round House there was an ad for 10% off at Daily Grill so we decided to give it one more try. I am writing because we saw a complete turn around in the service, noise level and friendliness of everyone. Kudos to Charles, our waiter, and to Gabriel, the new manager. What a difference!"

"Great for team lunch. The menu had something for everyone; i.e., those counting calories and those not. The low cal dish was flavorful and not tasteless as in most restaurants. We loved the strawberry lemonade...had several rounds since martinis were out. Sweet potato fries and Humuus Trio were also hits."

"This is the second time that I have been to the Daily Grill in the last week (dinner on 4/20) where the service was less than adequate. On the 20th it was so bad that we had to complain to the manager. On 4/23, my lunch mate and I ordered lunch salads. A number of diners who came in after us were served their main courses. After waiting almost one-half hour, I said something to our waiter. He went back and came out with our salads immediately. While the food is always good, the service leaves much to be desired."

"Daily Grill is a solid spot. I've been in the Bethesda one and in DC numerous times. This time though I asked for a rare hamburger and it came back medium well. We were short on time so I did not send it back but did tell the waitress. She apologized and I suggested she tell the chef. I heard nothing after that.7"

"Although the food was quite good, several dishes arrived only moderately warm and had to be sent back to the kitchen to be warmed. I assume that the dishes had been out of the oven for too long and had not been served to us by the wait staff. Also, we had alerted the waitor that we needed to make a theater performance, but the service was quite slow and we almost missed the start time for the play. So the food was of good quality, but it was not a great experience."

"I don't think I ordered the right thing: the Thai Noodle salad wasn't very good. The service was poor; it seemed like the waiter was very inexperienced. But the food came quite quickly (very important for lunch), the location is great, and other food looked good, so I will plan to go back and check out some other options."

"Despite it usually being a reliable lunch spot, this time was fraught with little troubles. I was having a late business lunch and requested, through open table, to be seated In a quiet location. We were seated in a booth right under a speaker that was way too loud for the mostly empty dining room. I had to find a discreet way of informing the waiter to please turn it down twice. Also, I ordered the penne primavera which tasted wonderful but had some mystery crunchy pieces in it which I guessed was remnants of chicken bone. It was embarrassing to have to spit out my food into my napkin at a business lunch with potential clients."

"This was the worst dinner for service that we've had in many, many years. We have eaten at several Daily Grills over the years and found the food quality and service to be excellent. For some reason, however this meal is a meal to be remembered, not for its excellent food quality and service, but for a very poorly managed operation. This was the Bethesda, MD, Daily Grill. Our water was brought out 15 minutes after being seated. Our drink order was taken 15 minutes later, and our food order 1/2 hour later. Bread was not brought 'til the fourth asking, and one entree was not the one that was ordered. The manager was called twice to correct the situation, only to be answered with benign responses."

"We have eaten at The Daily Grill Bethesda many times and the food is consistently good! Their Chicken Pot Pie is a highlight on the menu and one of the best we've tasted. Attentive service. Attractive atmosphere. We have also ordered from their room service menu many times. The restaurant is located in the Hyatt Regency Bethesda, which makes it the perfect location for a wonderful meal during our frequent stays at the hotel."

"The server we had was not the greatest but the food was absolutely amazing! Would definitely go back for the food and hope for a better server!
As for a little background on the situation... my date and I were in the middle of eating our food when our server brought us the check. We found it very rude and inconconsiderate especially when we didn't ask for the check! It made us feel like we were being rushed to leave when it wasn't very busy. Also, we had to ask for silverware as we ordered our appetizers. I enjoy the setting of the restaurant and the food was to die for!"

"As always, the Daily Grill in Bethesda re-enforced my reason for always insisting on meeting friends and colleagues here for lunch or dinner. The food is excellent and the staff are always friendly and responsive."

"I do not believe I have ever had better restaurant service than by Scott (I'm 44). The man not only does his job with excellence, but he has a generous spirit and makes you feel taken care of with his thoughtfulness both about the menu and in his offering of samples when a particular item of a dish was in question (e.g. a type of mushrooms I do not recall having before). Beer was taste tested/enjoyed, bread warm, appetizers of crab cake and scallops were excellent, chicken meatballs in the pasta very flavorful, my guest enjoyed his pork chop entree and we shared a delicious key lime pie. We were so comfortable and treated so well we had a nearly 3 hour dinner. I will be returning and asking for Scott. Happier than a tall dog in a meat shop!"

"An inexperienced waitress, who dropped a full tray nearby (not ours!) and was very slow bringing the bill, marred an otherwise fine experience. We'd go back."

"Best braised short ribs in town. The reason we come back. We also enjoy the grilled vegetable plate. Appetizer scallops were totally over-priced but server was friendly and food was good so all in all it was a nice Valentine's Day experience."

"We had a party of 8, including 2 kids, a reunion of sorts with out-of-town visitors. The service was EXCELLENT! Our server was friendly and attentive. My dinner arrived over-seasoned to the point that it was salty and inedible. The server removed it from the check and brought a great replacement dish. He was also patient with the two little girls. I'd visit again just for the service."

"I met two business associates for dinner on Thursday night. Unfortunately Daily Grill had a jazz group playing in the bar. Aside from the truly low quality of the music the volume was SO unbelievably loud that people had to shout to be heard, including the waiters. I will take Daily Grill off my list of restaurants to visit again. I've been going to Daily Grill for years, bringing out of town friends there as well as using it as a convenient place for business dinners. I'll find a new locale"

"Lunch time - not overly busy. 15 minutes after we were seated - no one had come to our table, so I alerted the hostess. We immediately had someone show up so things looked hopeful...not so. It took almost 40 minutes to get our food (a salad and a chicken kabob - chicken and rice were cold) and did not see our waiter again until I placed my credit card at the end of the table indicating I needed a check. Drinks were refilled once, right before we left. Very Bad Service."

"Slow and inattentive would describe our experience on Saturday night. My husband and I met our friends at the hostess table at the time of our reservation. There was no hostess there for 5 solid minutes. We were seated, it took 15 mins. for our waiter to greet us. He took our drink order and we asked for an appetizer of popcorn shrimp at the same time. It took another 15 mins. for anyone to return to our table with anything. Finally, our app was delivered. Another 5 minutes later our waiter returned to say they did not have the drink available I had ordered. I ordered something else and it still took another 10 minutes for our FIRST drinks to be delivered. Our waiter was hardly ever around & never checked back. We won't return."
