Previously occupied by a pizzeria, this space just by the junction along Zion Road is now replaced & renovated as Applause. Here we have the Maryland Crab Cakes at $24. The other order on our table was the Buttermilk Fried Chicken, where we got a choice of 2 sides to go along. Food presentation is simple. Taste is average; regrettably amateurish. It was not as unforgettable as I wished it would be. The bill without drinks (they do serve water) or desserts was slightly above $50.

P.S. by the way, my title is their tagline...can't say I can applaud to that...
