“Was looking for a place to eat that granted a good selection of beers and some vegetarian options, while I spent a couple of days staying in Arlington.
Galaxy Hut has crushed my expectations.
Buffalo things were very good, beer selection is massive, but the highlight was the burger.
By far the best vegetarian burger I have ever had, and also the eggplant fries, just wow!
Do yourself a favor and give this place a try, you won't regret it one bit.“

“Thanks again for a wonderful dinner shared with my family. Though it’s been many, many years, it’s still the same, with a few changes, its a great place. I know I can always count on you all every single time and I’m proud to know you’ve been my neighbor all these years as well. Whenever you’re around, it always feels more like home. And I love that for all these years you’ve had the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue. So many friends have been given a forever home, including a very special friend of mine. Thanks for all you continue to do. I hope you never leave us.“

“Due to certain reasons, our store has been targeted with malicious fake reviews by this despicable person.
It has been confirmed that these individuals are not real customers of ours, and the photos they used were not taken in our store.
We have already submitted applications to the platform to resolve this issue and have reported the matter to the police. We know exactly who you are — you are that Uber delivery driver who went berserk because you couldn’t wait for the food due to your own issues.
We have provided your name to the police and filed a formal complaint with Uber. We also have video evidence of you damaging store equipment, along with other supporting proof.
We hope you receive the consequences you deserve as soon as possible.

“Excelente ambiente , deliciosa cerveza artesanal lo mejor que he probado, muy amables todo el equipo de trabajo. Nice 😊 excelente lugar para relajarse con amigos ,tomar cerveza Y cenar.“

“I love the cat theme pictures and menu they have here. It really makes the resturant a fun place to visit. I had the French toast, which was very tasty. The staff were all friendly and everyone seemed to enjoy their time in the resturant. Ill most definitely come back.“

“This Fried Chicken is unlike anything I have ever tasted. The boneless wings are SO PERFECT. They have a light and airy Ness to them and yet are ao wonderfully crispy. We always get the honey garlic boneless. They are truly amazing every time. I have never had anything like this, and will happily be coming here for years to come. Use scissors to cut up the chicken and get some rice and pickled radish to make it truly a taste perfection.“

“Good beer, fantastic service, Nice environment“

“Great Spot! You’ll really like it!“

“Coming from nyc and discovered this on the go and it was just delicious. Kimchi burrito was incredible (must get) and so was the brie sandwich. Came in a second time and got the pork katsu and was also amazing. The place is nice and clean and the way the burrito was carefully wrapped in a nice foil with the logo was a great touch, like you can tell they care.“

“Spacious place with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and a laid back atmosphere.“

“I happened to be at The Renegade two weeks ago. I love country music so I thought it could be a great idea to show my brother this restaurant. We came from Spain and discovered this place! What we didn’t know is that we would meet Paul, who took care of us and “tour us around” their menu and options. The food was delicious and healthy as well! Artichokes, hummus, cauliflower and the chicken were amazing! My brother is vegetarian so they prepared a pad thai for him and he really enjoyed it. After dinner, was time to look everybody dancing on the floor… With the perfect atmosphere! I wish I could post some pictures!! Thank you very much Paul, for treating us so well, you very much surprised us! Will come back 🤩🤩🤩🤩“

“Excellent food and service!! Friendly staff reasonably priced. Very nice and clean restaurant. I highly recommend!!!“

“I recently dined at this establishment, having a late lunch. I was very impressed by the attentiveness/politeness of the staff. I ordered goat curry with garlic naan, and the meal did not disappoint. My server, Danish, was an excellent host and made the experience very warm and welcoming. I will dine here again.“

“Stayed at a local hotel and ordered from Door Dash. SECRET SPICY CHICKEN was great. Pretty much like General Tso's Chinese but a tad spicier. Large pieces of good quality chicken, even the medium order was too much for me. Pair it with steamed white rice, put the rice in the sauce. Very good.“

“The food is great here! I’ve been a couple of times now and never had a bad meal. The sandwiches are delicious and the pizza is amazing. Really good selection of beers too!“

“Thank you for hosting our parties and providing outstanding service! Everything was perfect and the staff were wonderful. Food was excellent and the drinks were great (and strong)! We had so many people attend and Potomac Social Tavern was amazing at hosting our event. Thanks again.“

“We hosted a happy hour there, staff are super fun and nice, food is awesome, cocktail is really good!“

“When ordering delivery via door dash you can’t get the cheese pizza without paying extra for the cheese. Pizza was good but this added cheese ($2) made it almost too cheesy. Garlic knots not buttery/oily/greasy like other places which I appreciated.“

“We love Cork! My boyfriend and I randomly popped in one day and had the best experience. We sat right at the bar and had the best experience with Karim who was so knowledgeable about their wines and wine in general. We ended up ordering food and were so happy with the steak! They have a ton of wine options, you’re sure to find at least one you like and their tasting flights are a great option to try something different. It may be a little pricier but it’s on par for a wine bar and our service was exceptional so that feels like you’re paying for great quality. We’ve already been back and joined the wine club! Huge fans of Cork!“

“Hands down the best Jamaican food in the area. I always get the jerk chicken with white rice and Mac and cheese. My husband gets curry shrimp but tonight he had steam fish. The first steam fish I've had that wasn't dry. We always get some patties and their house juice.

I also like to add it's the FIRST Jamaican restaurant we've been in where owners and employees and nice. My husband is Jamaican so I've been to a good number. I appreciate you guys!!“

“Customer service was amazing 🤩 I loved how my server Samara took care of me today and the chef was amazing as well 🤩 for my 1st time I had a wonderful experience 🤩 Thank you 😊 I will be coming back soon“

“Love trivia night it’s excellent“

“I’ve been seeing this new place develop but hadn’t had a chance to go in until today. While waiting for my prescription at CVS up the block, I tried their soup of the day. The front of the house has a few tables and a counter, giving the impression of a typical take-out joint. But they have the next store front too, with comfortable high and low tables. Since I was eating in, I was served on nice china, glassware, and real utensils. The Broccoli cheddar soup was excellent. It’s very clean and bright and the restroom is too. This is a much needed addition to the 12th St business district. I wish them much success. I’ll go for the full menu for sure. Hope you do too!“
