Monroe Grill

Staying at a hotel (Courtyard) down the street. I’ve been taking the metro into DC for a trade show. This restaurant is right there when leaving the metro. I had the turkey club and fries. The picture says it all - sandwich was as good as it looks! Fries were hot and fresh.

We have a lunch date every other Tuesday when our house cleaners come. We hadn't been here, and saw it had good ratings. It's a modest establishment, dated but clean. I had a Reuben, and my wife had chicken salad on a sub roll with lettuce and onion. Most patrons seemed happy and familiar, likely coming from the surrounding offices. The owners welcomed and checked on us, a nice touch. My sandwich was larger than expected, and hers was too. She would've liked a little salt and tarragon, but didn't ask for either. No complaints.

Great taste. Fresh food. Friendly service.and good price.

First time experience went there based on the reviews. They had no milk or creamer for coffee. Bagel that I ordered was burnt and hard inside out. Female working counter was really nice tho. I will give another try for lunch next when I’m in the area.

One of the best spots in Herndon for a quick lunch. Their tacos are delicious and their corn tortillas are next-level. They also make sandwiches, but don't sleep on the Toriz Tacos.
