I've been going to Hunter's Bar and Grill for about 25 years now, under the old ownership and now under the new. The place is an institution of sorts and has had a loyal clientele over the years. For the most part, I support the new ownership and the changes they have made. I saw a number of negative reviews concerning various aspects of the menu, service, and atmosphere since handing over the reins and at least in my experience, most seem unwarranted and reactionary. This is a place where regulars have gone for decades now, and I'm guessing that some of these reviews reflect a stubbornness and unwillingness to accept even the slightest changes and attempts to modernize the business. Most of the old staff have been retained and the menu is not radically different. The specials and drinks are still great deals. Today I had the Hunter's Burger and margaritas and honestly it was possibly the best I've had it there, and I've had this meal dozens of times. Perfect medium rare and the fries were superb as well. There's a different energy here now and some new/fresh blood with the greeters, chef, and even the clientele and to me, it's welcome. As much as I have always enjoyed coming here, it was getting a bit staid and stale. There are live entertainment nights as well now. Interesting.

This is a review for our meal which we ordered through Uber Eats. My husband and I got the steak burrito and the smash burger, and both were great portions and very delicious. The items travelled well, although they were a short distance of 7-10 minutes. I've recently been on a smash burger kick, so I absolutely had to try this one. The meat was cooked perfectly and the cheese melted off just right. The entire burger was fresh, not soggy, and just bursting with flavor. My husband couldn't finish his burrito, and it just so happens the next day I took a bite, and even a day later and cold, it was extremely delicious. I should also mention that the french fries were also delicious. Not overly greasy, and just enough seasoning. My husband and I are going to dine in person soon and we look forward to trying something new!

This place is my favorite restaurant in Potomac because the service is very great because everyone is really friendly and polite. The food is very delicious especially the meatloaf is very very very very delicious. It's very personal to me because the meatloaf reminds me of my mom who I miss deeply. Every time I eat it I feel my mom next to me. I especially want to thank the head chef for being awesome and you rock

Ate dinner here last night and it was delicious and the service was second to none. One thing that stood out - the new owner, Adam Greenberg, who also owns Potomac Pizza and a Bagels & Grinds locations, was at the establishment and came over to say hello and introduce himself as the new owner. It means a lot when business owners take such a personal interest in not just the high level financials but actually personally welcoming customers. Everything we had - from the burgers to the eggplant Parmesan to the streak frites and mouth-watering desserts was fantastic. Also - great to see dancing and live music in Potomac. We will definitely be back!

The food is better now. The service remains good. I am delighted to report that the "Hunter's Burger" remains a tasty and well prepared pub burger. Overall, the food seems to actually have seasoning now! French onion soup was good! Zero taste or preparation points of contention. My Old Fashioned was hand made and acceptable. My humble suggestions for minor improvements: Use a single large ice cube for the Old Fashioned; Provide a choice of a few high-end condiments for the burger. Use fewer potatoes in the Chicken Pot Pie, and maybe a tad less "soupy". But really, the restaurant is now an improved version of it's former self!

We have not been to this restaurant for many years and found out that it is under new management. It was always good in the past but I think it is even better now with the new chef and ownership. Three of us dined at Hunter's last night and it was EXCELLENT. We had a special, Beef Stew, the Soy Glazed Salmon and a giant burger with fried onions on top. We started with the Wedge Salad and finished with an amazing Hot Apple Pie with a scoop of Vanilla ice cream. The Wedge Salad was delicious and a large portion big enough to split. The Beef Stew special was a large portion, full of tender meat and just excellent. The Salmon was perfectly cooked and wonderful. The Burger was exceptional and the seasoned fries were great too. The Apple Pie was so delicious that we can't wait to come back and have it again. The staff was very attentive and refilled our drinks promptly. The dining room is austere and very comfortable. So happy with our experience and highly recommend giving it a try.

Fantastic experience. Our server Melissa took great care of us. Fried chicken special was moist, crunchy and perfectly seasoned. Steak Frites was cooked as requested and scrumptious. What you don't see here is the to go carrot cake and red velvet cake which are delicious. Can't wait to go back.

A local favorite in Potomac Village, yet not coasting on their reputation. I think they've actually upped their game recently. They have limited patio seating and a two part interior with bar/booths and a separate 'nicer' dining room. Menu is both traditional and thoughtful, lots of (good) salads, along with a reasonably wide range of entrees featuring burgers, ribs and mostly American dishes. We went for lunch today and the Reuben sandwich is pictured. Big and yummy. Service is predictably friendly and generally fast, making Hunter's a true hybrid between a burger bar and a white tablecloth establishment. And that's a good idea.
