Del Ray Cafe is my go-to spot for lunch with friends or colleagues. It is quiet, has great food and a variety of options that would make anyone happy. And the service is outstanding, attentive but not pushy if you want to linger over coffee or dessert. I love this place! More

The food was delicious! Recommend the Brie Pearsciutto sandwich and the Mac & cheese. Great wine list, and we got a 10% off coupon for the cheese shop after dining. We will be back! More

Great food during restaurant week. Well worth a try, I’m going to go back and try the normal menu. More

OpenTable Diner - 08/25/2018

Everything was great. Serviced was timed correctly for the occasion. From when the wine was brought, to appetizers and entrees, followed by desert. Everything was great for the occasion because we were not in a rush and wanted to enjoy ourselves so being rushed was never a feeling we got. The only thing that was a little off was the Carbonara I ordered. It was a little on the salty side. Not sure if the cook/recipe acknowledges that ham is already a fairly salty meat and not sure if salt was added on the sauce and egg as it was being cooked. Other than that everything was terrific, as well as the atmosphere. I’ll definitely be returning again. One thing which I liked seeing in for the location it was at was the fact that the server placed items on the table and cleared the table all in accordance to proper table etiquette, which I don’t personally care in most cases but in this one it gave a nice touch to our dinner experience and it was noted. Now the tiramisu was fantastic. Tiramisu is not my desert of choice but my wife is picky when it comes to certain dishes and she loved it. Thank you for the great night. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/17/2018

OpenTable Diner - 09/11/2018

Jonathan was a terrific waiter. He brought our margaritas right away, explained the menu and the special taco of the day. We were served quickly. The fried avocado, cauliflower tempura, and carne assada (special taco) were all delicious! The margarita was average, nothing special about it but adequate. Our party of 5 enjoyed the variety on the menu and appreciated being placed slightly away from the bar so we could hear our conversation. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/11/2018

Great time there with friends, food and drinks were awesome, it was my fourth time there already :) Will come back again for sure More

This has become my favorite restaurant in Old Town. The Ambiance is Lively and stylish but the most important thing is that the meals are consistently great. The service is wonderful. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/14/2018

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for some time and finally went to lunch there with a friend. When I booked through Open Table two days ahead, the information from Open Table stated that there were only 3 reservations left for the time frame near my booking time (11:30-noon) so I got the impression that this must be a very busy and popular restaurant. When I arrived, there were only two other people in the entire restaurant. Very surprised given the information from Open Table. I mentioned this to the staff--apparently it was not the first time that OT has provided erroneous information. It did get busier after a while, but it appears to draw on a clentelle of local older seniors (there are retirement homes nearby) for lunch. Service was good, attentive and friendly. I ordered a chopped liver sandwhich but what I got was a thick pressed liver (liverwurst) which was disappointing and not what I expected. The menu was fairly small and did not appeal much to me, personally. I will probably not go back. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/11/2018

Always excellent Indian food. Here with business people from India and they approved as authentic. While small and in a mall-type setting, the interior has a modern decor and does not feel cheap. Service is always deferential and effective. Decent selections of wine and beer. Good vegetarian options. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/09/2018

New job. They gave us free glasses of champagne. We tried the prize fixe menu if the guest chef. Everything was delicious. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/10/2018

We enjoy the home made pasta. Everything fresh. The grilled octopus, the arugala, the antpasta, the desserts, coffee, & pasta are all divine. The entire staff is always pleasant and professional. All helpful. Brandon was our waiter this time & was fun. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/07/2018

My wife and I celebrated her birthday with a wine tasting before dinner elsewhere. We were not disappointed with the wines, the service or the appetizers. More

OpenTable Diner - 08/31/2018

Great food, friendly and efficient service. Lots of options for kids. My only recommendation for improvement is to turn down the music when the restaurant is not very crowded. I found it difficult to hear others in my party due to the volume of the music. Overall, great neighborhood Italian More

OpenTable Diner - 08/30/2018

I came because I wanted to have raw oysters. Unfortunately they weren’t serving oysters until 4:00. I ordered a Greek salad with salmon and a glass of wine. Great meal, although disappointed about not being able to have oysters. Then I went shopping. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/10/2018

Another wonderful brunch at Cedar Knoll. This restaurant continues to impress. It has quickly become our “go to” spot when hosting out of towners. Everyone we have taken here loves the setting and the food. More

This was the perfect spot for my birthday dinner. The piano bar was excellent along with the food service and atmosphere. We really enjoyed the evening and will be back.

OpenTable Diner - 09/15/2018

The service was great. The food was delicious, but the chicken was a little over cooked. The corn risotto, however, was amazing as were the sweet potato fries. More

Birthday celebration More

OpenTable Diner - 09/15/2018

Went to Mason for Happy Hour and found the drinks to be good and the did surprisingly good. Again, this was just happy hour but the fried pickles and the Rueben eggroll were tasty and went well with the Punch. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/18/2018

Great service from staff and the dishes were exceptional. Really a great restaurant and will return again. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/18/2018

Give yourself plenty of time if you have a reservation because parking is a nightmare. The food was good but our waiter seemed annoyed with waiting on us. The place was nearly empty and he put us right at the front door. The atmosphere is much better at the other Delia’s but this is ok for lunch right off 95. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/05/2018

The fried chicken and catfish were delicious. I would definitely order them again. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/08/2018

We love eating here. The food is good and the staff is great. Good wine and beer list; GREAT crafted cocktails. The Manafort Trial was ongoing so it was a bit more crowded and noisy than it usually is, but it didn't keep us from enjoying our cocktails and meals. And the staff worked extra hard to be sure the clientele was taken care of. Well done! More

OpenTable Diner - 08/10/2018

Made reservations just in case we extended our happy hour....staff were amazing. Unfortunately we were unable to use our reservation, and the bartender assisted us in canceling it. Sangria was delicious. Tapas were tastey and filling. We didn't even eat dinner. Amazing time. Will definitely visit again. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/16/2018

Good meal, small portions, okay service, very, very loud "bourbon bar" without large ice cubes---very disappointing. Otherwise price was right and main bar is manned by pros (such as Brad). More

Breakfast was best meal at the restaurant. Staff very friendly and attentive. Awesome omelets. More

Good breakfast selection More

OpenTable Diner - 09/12/2018

Great find as we were next door to this restaurant in the Hilton Hotel and it was raining. We went on line with Open Table and was able to get a reservation immediately on a Saturday night. Service and food was excellent and the price was moderate. With so many choices, this was a great find. More

OpenTable Diner - 09/08/2018

This was our second visit to Bilbo Baggins, both times were for Brunch. We love the character of the place. The food is excellent and the menu features a lot of creative dishes to choose from. Our waiter was the best, offering recommendations and helpful comments without interfering too much with our natural conversation. The restaurant is close to the water and is an easy walking distance to the Torpedo Factory, which we visited after brunch. There is street parking as well as a pay to park lot directly across from the restaurant. We will definitely be back! More

OpenTable Diner - 09/09/2018

We met here on Saturday April 21 for my friend's birthday gathering. We arrived before 9 and it was hard to find parking. I will say I had the absolute most fun. I would definitely put this on my list as a go to spot. More

OpenTable Diner - 04/21/2018
