Bubbling, thin crust pizzas, mini burgers, crisp salads, and craft cocktails...four great reasons to visit matchbox today. Centrally situated in the Downtown Silver Spring Shopping Center, matchbox offers a warm and lively neighborhood gathering place with an aesthetic reflecting the Silver Spring community and its growth at the turn of the 20th century. Comfortable dining areas featuring wood tabletops, leather banquettes, and raised booths, as well as a spacious bar area and flexible seating for large groups further emphasize the welcoming, energetic atmosphere that matchbox is known to cultivate at each restaurant. Anchoring the design is a wood-burning oven that catches the eye from any seat in the house as it fires up signature thin-crust pizzas within minutes. In warmer months, patio dining is available under a pergola, lending an indoor-outdoor vibe to the setting.

It’s a great place to eat. Food was good! The chicken piccata my husband ordered was sweeter than we thought it should be, but the Mahi Mahi I had was very good. They also had some type of issue with the bread service so we had to wait about 40 minutes for that. Our server, Cindy was fabulous!
