Welcome to GoodFood
Goodfood Restaurant was opened in October 2004 in a converted auto parts garage in the industrial section of downtown Silver Spring by co-owners Jackie Greenbaum and Patrick Higgins. The first independent contemporary American restaurant to arrive in Silver Spring in decades, Jacks is often credited as a building block of the newly revitalized the district and a pioneer in bringing farm to table cuisine to the area. Its signature has been to serve seasonal American cuisine with a distinctive flair always fine yet always fun serious food at comfort food prices.
Known also for their commitment to inspired design, the partners created a restaurant which has garnered numerous architectural and design awards. Perhaps best described as 60's industrial chic, the former warehouse features a dramatic interior with 20 foot ceilings, exposed brick walls, roof rafters and building elements, and handcrafted steelwork throughout. The raw industrial elements are complemented by bright vintage fabrics, soft pink wall lighting, an illuminated bar and a 10 ft tall sheer movie screen which separates the bar from dining area with projected moving images and films. Award winning architects CORE completed the design.
