“ERIC is the man! He makes the best salads. My husband comes here about once a week and he is always happy to see Eric working because he does the best salad chopping and makes sure every customer he serves is happy with their bowl. We came in tonight for 3 salads and surprise Eric was working. We hope everyone gets to experience a salad made by Eric we appreciate him more than he knows.“

“I had an amazing experience at Nash & Smashed! The food was absolutely delicious everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. I brought a group of friends with me, and every single one of them loved their meal. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in.

It’s rare to find a place that has both great food and such outstanding customer service. Nash & Smashed definitely exceeded our expectations. This is a must-try spot, and honestly, it deserves way more attention than it gets. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to others!“

“I mixed up the pick up address (accidentally chose a different Chopt further away), and an absolutely lovely man (manager I think?) helped me out SO quickly and proactively, I didn't even have a chance to wait for my food, it was ready so quickly! A very nice person, super grateful to him and the team💛“

“I came here during my lunch break on a weekday. All the pizza options were available and I got the buffalo chicken slice. I don't make that much $, but the pricing was totally worth it. ($6 I believe) The pictures don't do it justice, but if you like NY style thin crust with that grease drip, you'll love this. The crust had that dough bubble that I love, and you could hear the crunch echo throughout the cafeteria. I would love to see some gluten-light offerings in the future but for now? A quick bite for good quality? You won't be disappointed.“

“I was there for the opening day and it was wonderful. The staff are so friendly and had huge smiles on their faces. The line moved quickly and the food was delicious and made exactly to order. The soup was still piping hot when I got back to the office. So happy they finally opened a location in Union Station.“

It was absolutely delicious...the veggies and lettuce were so fresh! Great flavor. I had cucumber taziki dressing...also delicious! Great healthy vibe here. And reasonable prices. Very impressed!“

“I had one of the best burgers of my life here. And a pretty good drink, too. Service was great, as well. Not really a complaint, but it was nearing sunset and was very dark, so I had to use the candle on the table to read the menu, since I'm of a certain age. I suppose that actually added to the ambience, though. I'm glad we happened upon it as we left our hotel looking for a spot for dinner.“

“I had an excellent experience at Chopt. The customer service was outstanding—everyone was welcoming, attentive, and made sure my order was prepared exactly how I wanted it.

Honorable mention- One of the workers there named Kia assisted me with upmost care.“

“First impression, fancy place yet accepting of my Washington Capitals hoodie. I thought for sure I was gonna get calamari but the waitress sweet talked me into getting chicken parmigiana. And wow am I glad she did. It’s like a pizza but with a chicken tender crust. Great work! And right when I didn’t think they could do any better, I got a free cookie!!! That is service.“

“Such good salda....we created our own was delicious. Spinach, Chicken, avocado, corn chips and buttermilk ranch.“

“love chop’t but at a loss on the variances of sweet potato cooking. while it is my opinion that sweet potatoes are not a veg that should have a bite, but here to educated! if my expectation or grasp is far from norm. totally get why the brussels or carrots in my bowl have bite. but have spent most of my lunch separating the sweets out of fork range. would appreciate other veg options with same or close nutrition deets available in consistent cooked or prepped form.“

“I come here at least couple times a week. Food is excellent. I really love the shrimp. I double it sometimes. Place is always clean and the staff does an excellent job keeping it that way The manager is always nice to me and always says hi. Not because I’m a VIP but just friendly.“

“This cafe is the best part of cafes. Amazing tasty food. Genuinely good coffee. Friendly staff. I love the atmosphere. The seating is cozy and there’s always calming music playing. The free water is infused water! In the morning this is the place to wake up in and it will set your day off for success.“

“We are visiting from Tennessee and wanted authentic Thai cuisine. We found it at Sampannee!!! The best Thai meal I have ever eaten. The cocktails were delicious and the food was perfection!

“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.“

Everything is so clean, and the staff is friendly and efficient! We were the last ones to leave and never felt rushed or like we were being a nuisance to the staff. I had a third, wonderful experience and i highly recommend it!“
