Stepping into DIG for the first time felt like stumbling upon a hidden gem in the bustling streets of Bethesda. Think Chipotle, but with a seriously cool vibe and a menu that screams, "Let's get adventurous!" I went all out with a build-your-own bowl, starting with a base of brown rice and cashew kale caesar. For my sides I got charred broccoli with a zesty lemon twist and mac and cheese that's basically a warm hug in a bowl. My main was crispy chicken, drenched in a mouthwatering hot honey drizzle and garlic aioli. Let me tell you, that hot honey was the BEST. But the real MVP? The kale salad. I know, I know, kale can be hit or miss, but trust me, this one's a game-changer. Fresh, crunchy, and bursting with flavor - it's like the superhero of salads. Now, let's talk drinks. The ginger mint lemonade? Chef's kiss. It's the perfect balance of refreshing and zingy. The staff are super friendly and helpful, making you feel right at home. Plus, there's plenty of space to kick back and hang out - indoors or out. Even though I grabbed my grub to go, I'm already planning my next visit. DIG is where it's at!

Delicious, healthy food. Good portion size, and you actually pay the correct price. They don't seem to mark up their meals as much as other restaurants.

The taste and texture was spectacular and it was a hearty, healthy meal. Excellent service. I got a make your own bowl with spiced farro, farm greens, kale salad, sheet tray carrots, crispy chicken, hot honey and garlic aioli. Absolutely recommend!! Devoured it entirely My coworker recommends the tofu as well - she said it was perfectly crunchy. We'll be coming back here again for sure!!

Dig in Bethesda is a fantastic spot we discovered while exploring Bethesda Row with my husband. I love walking around the area, checking out all the stores, and Dig’s location right on the corner of the streets makes it very visible and convenient. The restaurant offers a variety of fresh, farm-to-table options, from hearty grain bowls to vibrant salads, all made with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients. I also appreciate that the seasoning in their dishes is perfectly balanced—not too salty, but just right to enhance the flavors. It’s a kid-friendly place with a dedicated kids’ menu, and on Mondays, kids eat for free with the purchase of an entree—such a great perk for parents looking for a healthy dinner option. The casual, modern atmosphere makes it a great place for a quick, nutritious meal.

Tried this place for the first time. Got a bowl of farro, chicken, kale salad and cannellini bean salad. Everything was good! My favorite part was definitely the kale salad, they do that really well and it’s one of those things that’s harder to perfect at home because kale can be pretty tough (literally). I am not sure if there was an option to get dressing directly instead of the little plastic container, would love to see less plastic waste. That would be a suggestion.

Great news lunch spot! All of the food has so much flavor and all of the flavors work together. They may have the best carrots I've ever eaten.

I recently had the pleasure of having lunch at Dig and it was a really fun experience from start to finish. The menu boasted an array of dishes crafted with creativity, all made from the freshest local produce available. The carrots, broccoli and parm cauliflower are delicious and hot honey crispy chicken is a must!
