37 Best Steakhouses near Arlington

“The staff, service and atmosphere is phenomenal! Soon as we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted by Keith, I think he’s one of the managers, and seated promptly by a really respectful gentleman. Upon being seated, Keith recommended “Keith Wings” which were DELICIOUS and served to perfection. Besides the great food, the staff were very attentive and made sure we were satisfied. Overall great experience“

“An absolute gem!! Food was delicious and cooked perfectly. The service was quick and very friendly. You can tell this is a family affair. The kitchen appeared spotless and well run. We came all the way from Baltimore and plan on making this a regular stop. My wife and I split the wedge salad and the 32oz cowboy ribeye. It was perfection.“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“Stop at medium rare for brunch out of town and had a great time. From the ambience and the food and our waiter Winston, all fantastic. Ask for Winston when you come in, he is very communicative when your food is coming out and if you need any other drinks, he definitely takes an extra mile making sure his people are good. If you want great food and a great experience with fast service, definitely check out medium rare and ask for Winston! Top tier“

“The dinner was only "marred" by the entre trying to be serviced while we were still eating our appetizer. We could not believe that a restaurant of this quality would allow a service to bring out the main course while we were only half way through the appetizer. What does this mean? Well, in the states, it seems as though they are always trying to rush you through the meal to get the table free, but this restaurant does not have waiting lines like bonefish grill or those other type restaurants.“

“Our Uber driver recommended St. Anselm, after the restaurant we planned on was closed. What a happy misfortune! From the quick phone call, answered by Lily, who cheerily said she could accommodate our party, to our amazing waiter Joe, the delicious food, wonderful atmosphere; this place is a DO NOT miss! I’m sad we live in FL and can’t be regulars!! St. Anselm, whatever you are doing, keep it up!!!“

“First time eating at STK steakhouse food was fantastic. Our waiter Jordan was one of the best waitresses. I believe I’ve ever had in my whole life. She was just a bundle of joy and a ray of sunshine. A sweet, wonderful person service was great food great five star all the way.“

“Amazing Steakhouse ?,,,,!!!!!! Incredibly delicious!!!! Quality in Every Way!!!!“

“I don’t know where to even begin! This was by far the best experience I’ve had at any restaurant in a long time! Went to celebrate my father’s birthday with my siblings, son, niece and nephew and everybody was pleased. We had the pleasure of having Andrea as our server and when I say she went above and beyond for our group, I’m putting it lightly. Andrea literally took care of us in every way possible making our time there extremely pleasurable!! Believe me when I say, next time I go there, I am asking for her personally lol. Andrea…thank you for your wonderful and amazing hospitality and I look forward to next time!!“

“My friend celebrated her birthday here and they treated us so well. Daniel gave us ice cream for our cake and 2 bottles of champagne that were “just lying around”!? what a wonderful staff. Lola our server was so sweet and attentive. We love it here!!!“

“Very welcoming and well mannered staff! Hubby and I went to dinner here and it was delicious. We definitely will be back!“

“From the moment we walked in, this was an exceptional dining experience. We ordered multiple plates, but the 22oz bone-in ribeye... It was absolutely heavenly--cooked to perfection, incredibly flavorful, and one of the best steaks I've had in a long time!

What truly made the evening memorable, though, was the outstanding service. Nadine and Kevin were wonderful and went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and valued. Their hospitality made the experience feel special from start to finish.

And a special shoutout to Tek, who was hands down one of the best servers I've ever had. He was attentive, knowledgeable, personable, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. I'll definitely be requesting Tek as my server on future visits.

Exceptional food, exceptional service, and an experience I'll be talking about for a long time. Highly recommend!“

“This Place Had the Best Food Ever“

“Yen Yen has such a wonderful personality, she made us feel comfortable and genuinely welcomed. She wasn’t just providing service , she made us feel like valued guests.We love her energy ! It’s easy to see why this restaurant has such high ratings. It’s not only because of the amazing food, but also because of the outstanding service.“

“A premier steakhouse in the capital, offering a refined atmosphere and consistently outstanding meals. Thorn Law Group values it as a trusted choice for both client dinners and firm gatherings.“

“Wonderful food and service!“

“My family has eaten here three times now and each visit was great. Excellent food, attentive staff, free and convenient parking and an awesome space. Looking forward to our next visit already!“

“Great service, friendly staff, and an absolutely fantastic cheeseburger!“

“A 7-Star Experience at 1799 Prime! From the moment we walked in for Tasha’s birthday celebration, we were transported into a realm of elegance, flavor, and top-tier hospitality“

“We went here while on vacation in DC. Did a reservation in advance. We have 3 people in our group. We ordered calamari for appetizer. A couple of us ordered a 4 course meal for $60/person, and 1 ordered salmon with shrimp.
Firts order: steak salad, mashed potatoes, 6 oz filet with 3 shrimps on top, and cheese cake.
Second order: ceasar salad, brussels sprouts, 6 oz filet with 3 shrimps on top, and chcolate cheese cake.
Third order: grilled salmon with shrimp and spinach.
The steak (Medium well) was melting in our mouths. The shrimp was perfectly seasoned, mashed potatoes was very creamy, the spinach complimented the salmon so well, and the salmon was cooked to perfection. The calamari was crunchy, but we did not like the sweet sauce.“

“Today my husband and I had the opportunity to dine at Fleming. The staff was AMAZING! Matt, the manager was on top of every request, need, and want. As soon as anyone in the restaurant needed anything, we witnessed him assisting the service staff to make sure that it was done immediately. He is the type of manager that people dream of! Wish he were on my team. Luis was our server and was great! He was on top of our every need, was attentive, and easily on of the best servers I've ever had. To round out the team, Juan was behind Luis with any additional support that we needed. Quiet professional with great service; Quick, fast, and in a hurry. The ambiance of the restaurant is hard to find in DC. It was quiet enough for a one on one conversation, but energetic enough to make sure that we were not bored. The food was top notch! My stomach hurts because I should have tapped out 15 minutes ago but the food was too good to stop. I'd recommend the Leviathan wine and tomahawk steak. We are big eaters and could not finish our salads and soup, steak, or desserts! My husband highly recommends the French onion soup, Mac and cheese, and Brussels sprouts. Overall the service, ambiance, food, and staff were wayyyyyy more than we expected. We look forward to patronizing this location again. I wish I had pics, but we ate too fast.“

“Usually when I eat at a restaurant, I do not pay much attention to the sides as i am not a veggie lover. But I must say that while the ribeye was great, I was even more taken by the roasted carrots, roasted maintain mushrooms, and the roasted brussel sprouts.“

“I ordered the flo filet, w/ Cesar salad and stuffed baked potato. The steak was perfectly cooked with no sauce, or even on a bed of mashed potatoes nothing just a lonely piece of meat. The Texas tea was strong but good. I'll try something else next time.“

“This is my favorite restaurant! Love the Palm.!“

“Good place to go with friends.“

“This is on the lower level of a Ronald Reagan building and with it being a federal building you do have to go through security. After walking half the day already, I was ready for a warm lunch. The Philly Cheese Steak was really good. It had great flavor and was cooked exactly the way I ordered it. The fries that came with it were fine as well. The food was quick and ready to go in a few short minutes.

Overall, it certainly was a decent lunch. It did the purpose of recharging me to be ready for the second half of sight seeing.“

“Great nice and hot tasty food, love the taste of the fresh food with white rice. But hopefully we can see more improvement with the food quality and the atmosphere. when is Winter is freezing “as hell” needs improvement soon but overall the experience is very good loving family owned business polite staff friendly and supportive. Thanks Eddie’s

Kid-friendliness: Kind regards

Wheelchair accessibility: Parking available.“

“Visit few times and have great experience and good food“

“Went there for my moms 76th birthday. They accommodated her and went out of their way to make her feel special. I appreciate all of their hard work. I highly recommend this place!“

“My daughter celebrated her 17th birthday here. The host was the best I have ever in my life thus far, and I travel a lot and have various restaurants experiences. He was amazing! She had 12 17 yo guest and they all agreed. The food was delicious! The host was very accommodating when the food didn’t come out fast enough due to the number of guest. The food and service was so good, that my daughter had food delivered to the house the next day! Highly recommended. I didn’t sit with them because… I’m not that type of parent, but I waited in the lobby area just in case I was needed and they offered me wine and even provided ice cream for me as I waited. I won’t post photos because the kids are underaged but everything was perfect! Thank you. They did a great job! We will be back (the adults not kids this time) lol.“

“Great service, good food and a great greeting. Me and my wife had an exceptional experience. We definitely will be going back.“

“We ordered medium-well steaks because we wanted well-done and figured they would screw it up. Sure enough, out come two well-done steaks with a substantial char. Delicious, but very telling!

I think I like the New York Strip most, then sirloin or filet mignon. Porterhouse was cooked very unevenly on our second visit. The Delmonico was surprisingly fatty and unimpressive. Queensland pasta was okay, but not worth getting again.

Not very good/spicy chicken wings, okay potato soup, pretty good mac & cheese and mozzarella boomerangs, good loaded fries and broccoli, very good chili and bloomin' onion, and great mashed potatoes.

Desserts: the chocolate thunder from down under was okay, the choco tower for two was pretty good, and the salted caramel cookie skillet was awesome.“

“Exactamente excelente ♥️😇🙏“

“I order platters every December for our amnual Xmas party work. I ordered 6 wing platters and 9 full racks of ribs on xmas eve. The order was over $500. Everything was good. The only thing not 100% but still acceptable were the mild wing platters which could've been browned a bit more. Co workers ate hearty and good. They did good“

“Had an incredible first with some delicious 😋 Bolivian food today. Salteña de Polla - Crushed it Pique Macho - 💯 CRUSHED…“

“The clam chowder at Old Hickory Steakhouse is quite honestly some of the best I have ever had and was absolutely phenomenal from the very first bite. What made the experience even more remarkable was the exceptional service and leadership from Alex. It is immediately obvious that he runs this restaurant with excellence pride and meticulous attention to every detail. His dedication to creating a first class experience for every guest shines through in every aspect of the restaurant. Rochelle was equally outstanding and provided warm attentive and genuinely exceptional service throughout my visit. The hospitality professionalism and care shown by both Alex and Rochelle made this one of the most memorable dining experiences I have had in a very long time. Old Hickory Steakhouse is operating at an incredibly high level and Alex deserves tremendous credit for that.“
