Great find while in Arlington! Went to watch the hockey game. Staff were really nice and SUPER attentive! Food portions were just right. We had wings and the sampler platter and enjoyed them both.

Definitely recommend, and we'll be back the next time we're in the area!
May 2026
The 3 of us came to First Down on March 20th to grab a late lunch. The place was crowded due to the March Madness viewers. It took more than 10 minutes for the waiter to stop to take orders, and we did not get our water refilled for a long time. Additionally, the food was mediocre as there was too much breading.
March 2026
Upon arrival, we were seated right away. Hostess did not seem thrilled to be at work, which I know- we all have our days! So nothing against them. Upon seating, it took a little bit (long enough to basically know what we wanted to eat) before our waitress came over to greet us and got started right away with taking our drink order and our appetizer. She was quick with drinks and bread, then our fried pickles came out fast and hot (a little on the spicy side)
