Chicken sandwich (Nashville hot) was delicious. Outdoor seating was perfect for summer Friday lunch . Serve was good, overall I liked the experience and will come back for another summer. Friday lunch

Leonda Levchuk

Ask for the pisco cocktail made with Macchu Pisco and enjoy...made with either blueberries or raspberries . Try any of the pizzas , you won't be disappointed.

Behrad Eats

The Bloody Mary Burger here blew me away. It comes with a fried egg , bloody mary mayo , cheddar , gouda and thick cut bacon . Order it medium-rare and enjoy!

Jonathan Santana

Try the 'coffee ' and doughnuts after your meal. More than enough for two people and the doughnuts have a slight New Orleans beignet taste to them. A great way to finish your meal!

Ryan Brown

Though it's known for the pizza , the seafood and entrees are stellar! The Scallops are the same as on Iron Chef , and the wood-fire roasted rack of lamb is delicious! Duck fat potatoes ..can't beat that

John Sullivan

Porcini rubbed rib eye and the watermelon patio pounder lemonade out by the fire is a good thing. Potato croutons and wedge salad are perfect accompaniments. Great spot!

Holly King

Our waitresses were very bubbly and fun to talk to. Pomegranate martini was delicious! The 3.6.9 mini burgers were REALLY GOOD, I can see why they are known for them. All around very good time!!

Sujan Hong

Hey Matchbox, maybe institute a house rule that if one of your staffers spills beer on a diner (and their phone) they should maybe get a free drink or something.

Chris

The white pizza is divine. If not in the mood for pizza have the grilled romaine salad with salmon .

Dion H

Don't be misled. There is so much more than pizza here. The food is insanely good. Try the Apple pear salad or the short ribs in a red wine reduction. Or Shrimp & Grits !!!

Andrea Williams

The pear Apple salad is awesome! Really like the pepperoni sun dried tomato pizza . Tried 3 desserts all great! Really liked the donuts . Dont think you can go wrong with anything here. #Criswasawesome

Joyce Coco

Bartenders great! Ordered 3 appetizers . All good. Had crabcake sandwich as my main meal. Delicious.

Sara M

Ask for the table bread . It's free and yummy. Also, the music is usually not so good.

Nora

The sliders ???? here is absolutely to die for. Also chicken pesto pizza is so good ????????.

Margaret

Way better than expected! 3-6-9 sliders are the bomb.

Sheila O'Sullivan

Had sliders for first time here and was shocked at how delicious they are. Had the chicken pesto pizza and yep another win...love this place

Freida

Love it, food, service, price. A complete package u must try the 3,6,9 sliders , yummy!

Rachel Wolman

Really fantastic pizzas . Brick oven crispy crusts. And they have an awesome drinks menu.

Shveta Kumar

Table bread , fire and smoke pizza , pepperoni meatball roll and the crab & avocado salad are terrific.

Allyson Hartten

Service is a little inconsistent, but the food is usually delish. Great beer selection and nice open space :)

Anthony D Paul

The cobb salad makes my list of one of the best salads I've ever had. Easily a filling dinner .

Angela Read

Devoid of a kids menu , they do have delicious sliders . My favorite pizza is the pepperoni .

Michelle

Salmon , cheesy grits and asparagus wrapped in bacon - delicious. Chocolate molten cake with caramel and vanilla ice cream - delicious.

Tasting Table

Start brunch with cinnamon rolls , which get a crisp, caramelized shell as they cook in a cast-iron skillet : Read more

Try the mozzi carrozzi, ham and arugula pizza and the white pizza . If you like, add sausage to the white!

Nice interiors and good location in rockville. Frankly taste not the greatest. Ask for the chickpea fries .

Elaine Berry

The burger with gorgonzola cheese & mushrooms is out of this world. Truly.

NOM NOM Boris

You got to try veggie pizza , it's amazing! I'm not even vegetarian and lived it more then meat pizza lol. Large pizza 8 slices for $18

Try the Chocolate Molten Cake - vanilla gelato / crème anglaise / caramel / 
crispy chocolate wafer

Their brunch is the best! I always get a bloody mary and their bloody mary burger !
