    My meal, vegetable hash with poached eggs was inedible. Cold eggs and uncooked vegetables. I had them take it off the bill. Got a cup of coffee and no one ever came by to refill my cup. Terrible food and bad service.

    We enjoyed our Rosh Hashanah dinner! We appreciated the service and the wishes. We could see how complicated it was to serve regular meals and holiday meals to everyone. The only suggestion is to serve each person their own little challah(roll), apple slices, gefilte fish, and chopped liver as a complete meal. Our guests thought it odd to split .that part of the dinner.

    The service was a little slower than we would have hoped, but I think our guy was in training. The rigatoni with sausage was excellent, as was the shaved Brussels salad. I’ve cream sandwich is a must

    I was here around the first year they opened and it was a nice dinner. This time I thought maybe I should have stayed home. Our service definitely had more time for tables next to us evidently and not for us. We placed out first orders and after that she walked past us I counted more than 10times and she cleared two tables next to us without checking in once .My partner even finished his burger and we just continued with the wait whilst I had finished my salad still waiting to order my entree. Definitely got irritated with the wait whilst being pregnant and got my dinner to go, she missed parts of my drink which was a simple virgin drink with a salt rim.

    Nice setting - lots of options for seating inside/out and good service. Food was fine. However, the menu choices at lunch are pretty limited - basically the regular dinner menu plus a few sandwiches. Makes for a pretty pricey casual lunch.

    Three poached eggs came out cooked differently: (1) runny - which is perfect, (2) well done/soft boiled, and, (3) amazingly — hard boiled. Sent them back explaining they should be runny. Next batch very soft boiled aka well done. Bloody Mary made with zero flair — similar to what you might get on an airplane.

    Summer House is popular so take this for what it’s worth. Service was terrible , not checked in on even once from appetizer to bill. Mahi mahi was rubbery. If you don’t care about how your food tastes or how you are treated then Summer House is the place for you.

    One of the party at least had a severe digestive upset. The cleanliness may not keep up with the overall traffic volume. Also the restrooms smelled awful even through the closed doors -approaching that area. Doesnt say anything good for overall hygiene. more staff, and better procedures to address these issues are needed.

    I had a table reserved for 5 and had a sixth person show up and Summer House gave us te perfect table. The location is so central to anyone doing business or living in North Bethesda of South Rockville and parking for the first two hours is free. The menu is perfect for lunch, the prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly, professional and courteous.

    This is my third time coming and eating inside. I like the variety of seating options available for groups. I appreciate that they were able to make some of their cocktails non alcoholic and were accommodating to allergies. The noise level is moderate, it’s not super quiet but you don’t have a hard time hearing people at your table. The food was well portioned for the price, definitely not a leftovers place but they don’t skimp either. Carrot cake is 10/10.

    I ordered the Costa Mesa with grilled tuna. It was good but very “one note”, no pops of flavor. I “borrowed “ t lime from my husband’s chicken tacos and some of his “hot sauce “ and it made a world of difference, just saying. Server was “eh”, no particular personality.

    Unfriendly hostess. How is a person that -- does not greet you when you walk up to the hostess stand, does not make eye contact with you, just starts walking away with menus and tosses them on a table, and walks off with no communication -- selected for that job?
