Best Modern European Restaurants in Bethesda

Andreas was friendly and helpful! Service was outstanding and food tasted great.

Made an easy enough reservation online, the day before. Only had bar seating left, which was actually listed with reserved plaques when we arrived Restaurant is about a block away from eastern market metro. Street parking. $36+ unlimited tapas style plates. You can order as many plates as you want. They are kind of sample size, but very filling. Two drink options. Unlimited regular mimosas (various flavors) for $12 -OR- the same regular unlimited mimosas AND cocktails and other non alcoholic drinks I literally had the full menu of regular mimosas lol. My friend had a lemongrass or something cocktail the entire time, and loved them! We were seated at the bar and Courtney was our bartender. He was Amazing! The receipt comes out a little wonky, like it isn't exactly itemized, but it does come up to the price total as listed on the menu. We were told , its done that way to capture the cost of the drinks ..... This is not really a "turn up" spot. A mixed crowd, everyone had a good time tho! I don't recall if music was playing, but I was so busy catching up with my good friend. Such a lovely time!

This was an experience to remember!! The food was amazing and very well curated. I left not too full and certainly satisfied. I especially enjoyed the iberico and the prawn paella. We had the wine pairing which I can see why they won the sommelier guide, they were uncommon varieties yet and I appreciated the time and care they took to explain each course.

Wonderful cocktails and delicious meals with great service
