25 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Arlington

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Excellent food and beyond excellent prices🌟“

“This is a really cool spot. The inside is nicely decorated, with lots of dog pictures!! They have lots of options. You can get the hot dogs as beef, veggie, or chicken. I got the Buffalo (blue cheese crumbles, chopped celery, sriracha, and ranch) and House (onion relish, mustard, mayo, celery salt) I really enjoyed both, especially the House Dog!! This is a Black owned, gourmet hot dog spot! Very cool!“

“Fresh ingredients, great customer service.“

“Oh K-Dog can be a bit hit-or-miss. The food is fantastic -- all the K-dogs and sauces are amazing, and the toast sandwiches are absolutely delicious! However, service can sometimes be slow, and orders don't always come out in the right queue order. If you're on a short lunch break, you might want to plan ahead. Still, the flavors make it worth visiting when you have the time.“

“I was waiting for my flight and wanted a quick snack. I got the cheeseburger, which includes the patty, little fries, and regular soda for $25.05. There’s limited seating, with three tables that have two high chairs and about two tables for standing. It was easy to order, the staff were friendly and efficient, and the burger was as good as ever, just like the fries. The little fries are perfect for two people.“

“I would never, in a million years, think the best service I have ever received was in an Airport, let alone DC, but here we are. Curtisha K is absolutely an Angel. She was the best... 5 star will absolutely return to DCA just to go to Chick-fil-A“

“Great food. Very friendly staff“

“i thought I cooked good basmati rice. The rice I had there today kicked my rices butt!“

“Visiting DC and stopped for breakfast, Latrell took our order, was very nice and personable, while we were enjoying our meal the manager asked how we were doing and our experience there. We told her we were visiting DC and she took the time to tell us about DC and the surrounding areas. She was very pleasant and they really made it a great experience for us, if you ever visit or frequent this establishment your in for a treat, their really great people!“

“Fresh hot and made to order burgers! Tasty every time!!!“

“We went to the Mono (Georgetown) location and our burgers were excellent. The staff was friendly and the space was clean. There was outdoor seating enjoyed by many, but we chose to sit indoors and people-watch in the charming, bustling area on a Sunday afternoon. Great experience as out-of-towners!“

“This is the best Five Guys I have been to in a long time. When I heard they were essentially reopening the first five guys I had to check this place out and honestly it was like they were working at a higher standard than most other stores to live up to it being the original or something. My burger was great, the fries were perfect, the people working there were friendly and helpful and there was even a neat Mural on the wall that made this location feel special. Good Job!“

“I went to this place specifically for the bourbon chicken as it is a favorite. It was terrible, dry and without any sauce at all. However, the black pepper chicken was great. The fried rice and the mixed vegetables were very good also. The service was good and staff was friendly.“

“Kimberly and Jaime were simply great - service with a smile - and their lady manager - wow, she was efficient and on it!
Watching her work and get orders out and take care of issues quick and efficient - if I had a business in DC I would steal her and the girls. They made our local experience seem welcoming and paced for our tastes - the personal touch is so important and this team made it for us.
We're heading back to Omaha, but if we visit again, we'll visit this restaurant just for the people.“

“Delicious! Simply delicious and authentic Mexican Tacos. I stumbled upon this food truck searching for food at Whole Foods couldn’t have been more grateful for the find. It was exactly what I was looking for, healthy, authentic, Mexican tacos….I slammed a burrito and Avena drink as well hehe.“

“This morning was really not feeling it didn’t wanna go to work, but I said I was going to stop and get some Chick-fil-A before I went to work and I was greeted by Kassidy & Omar! Great customer service great vibes. Great Energy you have a regular on your hands at this point“

“Love coming here with my friends“

“Great Mcdonald. I have been goin since childhood.“

“Though they were very busy, the guy working the counter and other areas was the nicest, most patient, and most helpful person ever. He showed me where to find what I wanted to order on my cell phone/ Taco Bell application. He is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I was and am most grateful.“

“I went to this Popeyes and their food ate fresh , hot tasty yummy and delicious also all team member are friendly and serving me great. I got my food really quick and also this restaurant are very clean and organized. I will recommend my family and my colleagues to come visit this restaurant“

“Shake Shack Ballston is great - food, service, interior cleanliness, and Covid protocols. The staff went the extra mile to ensure my family didn’t just have a quick bite, but a great dining experience - bringing drinks to the table, offering custard for the kids, and taking our trays.“

“I love pizza, but I love the great service I received from all of the incredibly kind and chill people who work here! The older dude with red hair and the long braid and the chain is so incredibly kind, a very warm guy and always a treat to talk to. The young African American guy is always great to see, always wave to him or give him a smile when walking by, he seems very nice! Last but certainly not least is the European man with the large beard, hes a very relaxed dude and whenever I get a pizza when he's working there I know it's gonna taste extra good, that guys awesome. The dudes who work here are awesome and the food is just as good! These workers are the best!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Jersey Mike's Subs - Clarendon, and I especially want to recognize Nick for going above and beyond.

From the moment I walked in, Nick was welcoming, professional, and genuinely friendly. He handled a busy rush with ease, stayed attentive to every customer, and made sure each order was prepared perfectly. My sub was made exactly as requested — fresh, generous with the toppings, and neatly wrapped. You can tell he takes pride in both the quality of the food and the overall customer experience.

What stood out most was Nick’s positive attitude and attention to detail. Even during a busy period, he made the interaction feel personal and unhurried. That level of service makes a big difference and is the reason I’ll gladly return to this location.

Highly recommend this Jersey Mike’s in Clarendon — and if Nick is working, you’re in great hands!“

“I came in today after an exhausting day, especially after an 84-hour week. I wanted something simple and quick and wanted to turn my brain off. I was instantly greeted when I walked in, and when I got to the slicer, I was showered with recommendations and suggestions. Hanza (sorry if misspelled) cooked me up a sizzling 43, very well seasoned and cooked to perfection, and the atmosphere felt like that of a family. Kudos to the manager, Whitney. I will be back.“
