"I 'm a foodie and as I was planning my baby shower, I was adamant that along with good food I wanted a cake that would excite my guests of course I wanted it to be beautiful but, more importantly, I wanted it to taste amazing. I Googled best bakery in Montgomery County and Classic Bakery was at the top of the list with very high ratings. I submitted an inquiry online and got an estimate back that was outside of my budget but the manager who wrote to me offered to chat with me about alternative options that could meet my needs but also fit within my budget constraints. When I called the bakery to discuss my options, I was told that the manager who wrote to me was out of the office for a few days but was put in touch with Areen, and I was able to schedule a consultation with him. Areen spent so much time and care with me on our call and discussed multiple options with me that fit into my budget and also allowed my vision to come to life his customer service was exceptional. I ultimately decided on an ombre rosette design. I had the cake delivered to the venue and it was on time and very fresh. I ordered two flavors vanilla with strawberry and vanilla with lemon cream and both were absolutely delicious! So many people asked me where I 'd ordered the cake from. Going forward, based on customer service, quality, and taste, I will definitely place all my future cake orders with Classic Bakery and highly recommend them to others."

"Decided to go here for happy hour. I tried the red sangria and the house margarita. The margarita was good but the red sangria just tasted very watered out. The happy hour food was not the at great. We had one of the vegetable flat breads which was very plain tasting where all the flavor was coming from the sauce which was sparingly layered across the flatbread and it just added a sweet taste. We also tried the beef empanadas. The shell was overly crunchy and a little on the hard side where it seemed as though it was overheated or something. The meat inside tasted ok. If you’re just looking to have drinks for happy hour then ok this spot is fine but if you want to eat I would probably may say get drinks and go somewhere else to eat."

"What a fun surprise of a restaurant! It's in the most unassuming area surrounding by industrial type buildings and not noticeable. It's definitely got an old-world Italian restaurant feel. Service was nice and quick enough. The food was surprisingly good. Burrata special and fresh mozzarella and tomatoes were both delicious. The salad with goat cheese was also great. Rigatoni with meatballs was good, and rigatoni with bolognese was phenomenal. The grilled branzino was also excellent. Chianti was a nice choice. The limoncello mascarpone cake was truly something special. Light, moist, perfectly balanced. We highly recommend it! Parking is ok, but limited. Family friendly."

"As Peruvian food lovers, finally getting to La Canela was a treat. The decor is lovely and transportive. We enjoyed cocktails first, and never felt rushed by our server. The amuse bouche was outstanding. I do wish it could be on the menu. The pork rib appetizer was absolutely delicious and almost a meal in itself. The Lomo Saltado with fettuccini was the best I've ever had, and that includes Peruvian food we've had in Central and South American (although not Peru itself unfortunately). Will definitely return and bring friends."

"Cava Mezze Rockville offers upscale small-plate versions of Greek dishes. The Saganaki is marvelous. The Grilled Lamb Chops with fries are not to be missed. They are out of this world! The Crispy Chicken Sliders were also shockingly complex and tasty- highly recommend. The prices reflect the upscale dishes, so don't expect to get out without spending some bucks, but it's worth it, in my estimation. We found the Grilled Shrimp and Zucchini Fritters bland. The Brussels Sprouts needed a spritz of lemon and some more salt to brighten up. The atmosphere is my biggest complaint. The restaurant is TINY and they crowd as many tables as they can in this space. It's dark and loud. My dining companion and I had to practically shout to hear each other. Still, I'll return because those lamb chops are THAT GOOD."
