What to do in Bethesda

Going to Bethesda for wedding. Any shows going on? Where is a good place for lunch, dinner? Will be there 27th, 28th and 29th of August.
Thanks

There are tons of places in Bethesda. Along Woodmont Avenue/Bethesda Avenue and also Norfolk (I think), among other places. Why don't you do some googling?

I don't know what kind of shows you are thinking about.

As stated tons of restaurants -- what kind of price range and food? Would u metro it into DC or do u want to stay in Bethesda?
Bethesda does not have many if any shows. There are bars and some have music - what r u looking for?
Check out the Washington Post online. On Fridays they have a section called the Weekender and this weeks edition should also include things continuing thru next weekend.
Watch the weather -- its been brutual this week, hot and steamy. Hopefully by next weekend it will have cooled off.

We love seafood. Thought there was something up there called Round House Theater. We are staying at Hyatt on Wisconsin. Going into DC on Sat.

Right, forgot about that place -- I looked and it doesn't appear to be having anything while u are intown
http://www.roundhousetheatre.org/performances/. There are many theaters in DC if u want to see theater.

For seafood there is a McCormick and Schmidt not to far from u on Woodmont Ave. I like Black's Bar & Kitchen also on Woodmont and maybe a bit closer to the Hyatt.

Ever had or like Maryland blue hardshell crabs? If so or want to give them a try Bethesda CrabHouse is on Bethesda Ave. Its a very casual beer and crabs kind of place. They have crabcakes and shrimp and the likes.

I've never been but there is also a place called Steamers on Norfolk Ave. Great sushi and other Japanese food is at Raku also on Woodmont Ave down the street from McCormick & Schmidts.
Many of the restaurants in Bethesda offer seafood dishes also.
All of these restaruants are within 15 - 20 minutes(or less) walking distance of your hotel. There is also a free shuttle that goes all around Bethesda. The Hyatt should be able to give u info on its stops. Have fun!

David Craig has gone out of business, but Black's is great.

Thanks again. Can get reservation on open table at Black's.
Didn't google round house because I wasn't sure of the name. Did find it in going out guide.
