“Ambar's newest location does not disappoint. If you know Ambar, it goes without saying the food is amazing. new offerings on the menu gave me some new favorites to add to my already long list. New cocktails for a new address, yes and thank you! The design esthetic is light and refreshing...And the 2nd floor ceiling is an instagram dream. Easily 5 stars.“
“My husband and I went here and were seated right away. The service was excellent the entire visit. We wanted to try as many things as possible so we ordered from their pre fixed menu option. Our table was pretty small So the table got really crowded fast! Food was pretty good, the fried fish was surprisingly my favorite. Meal ended with a dessert too. Nice touch. We will definitely be going back and requesting a booth instead of the table because we rarely order one or two items.“
“I traveled to DC for a week of work and stumbled into this AMAZING restaurant. Salad Works has fresh products and you are able to build your salad with every conceivable topping you could imagine. The customer service was outstanding and I had dinner there three different nights.I WISH this place was in EVERY CITY!!!BTW- the owner is awesome!!!Vegetarian options: N/A“
“Let me start by saying, I love, love, love this Bahn Mi place! Throughout the summer, I attended numerous events that were catered by them, and without fail, they left me utterly impressed. The range of options they offer is simply mind-boggling, ensuring that there's something delightful for every palate. The commitment to providing fresh and high-quality food is evident in every bite.The sandwiches themselves are not only bursting with flavors that dance on your taste buds, but they also hold up remarkably well. I've often found myself with leftovers, and keep perfectly for the next day's snack. Furthermore, the Bahn Mis are incredibly portable, making them a top choice for an on-the-go meal. Whether you're headed to work, a picnic, or just exploring the city, this is a fantastic choice.The flavors are delightful and i will definitely be swinging by in person next time I'm in the area“
“What a surprise! I walk past this place all the time. After reading the reviews I stopped in. whoa. Nice extensive menu, friendly staff. Quick service. Very tasty and flavorful Vietnamese food. I noticed people at the next table didn’t finish their pho. Hmmm, something wrong, I wondered? Then my bowl of noodles with beef flank steak came out. Delicious. In spite of my good intentions, I couldn’t finish it all! I can hear my mother in the background berating me about the starving kids in Biafra, etc. Hey! I’m 70 years old and still hear that. We had the summer rolls and the sausage rolls for appetizers. They were very good as expected. My wife had grilled chicken over rice and lots of fresh veggies to mix in as desired. This has been inserted near the top of our favorite restaurants list.“
“Discovered this gem while searching for pho, and I'm amazed I hadn't noticed it before. The pho was fresh and flavorful, especially enjoyed the veggie option. The ambiance was relaxed, with enjoyable background music. It's clearly popular, as several guests arrived shortly after me. While I didn't have a drink, it appears they offer a selection of beer and wine only. The spacious layout makes it ideal for groups.“
“The chicken Khao Soi was delicious and easily the star of their menu. Staff were super understanding of my family being in a rush and made sure to get us everything we needed in a very timely manner. The restaurant itself is cute and a very cozy spot for lunch in dupont.“
“My boyfriend and I had a wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner. It was so good we’ve now made it an annual tradition. The atmosphere of the restaurant, along with the food was excellent. Very professional staff, great food, incredible restaurant. What more can I say? We will definitely be back again. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a great experience.“
“Soups are so good and tasty, and thumbs up to the Korean traditional Galbi Jjim(Steamed Beef Ribs in sauce); it's a bit pricey but well worth it. So fortunate to have this restaurant finally opened in Annandale.Parking: There are limited parking lot in front but there are plenty more on the side.“
“New favorite Vietnamese place. Their BBQ Pork Bahn Mi is a revelation. The tangy crunch of the pickled vegetables contrasts beautifully with the pork and the crunchy baguette. They have a Pick 2 Deal that puts Panera to shame. SO much food, for an incredible value.They also have lots of great quick grab entrees (dumplings, spring rolls etc), if you’re looking for a quality add-on. Will definitely be back.“
“Dumpling District is in the back of Luna Food Hall. It's a cozy spot with tables and couches. There's also bubble tea, ice cream, and a bar here to go along with your meal. They made the dumplings fresh in front of us and they were amazing. The one thing I didn't like was the stir-fry noodles because it didn't have much flavor. Definitely come here for a fresh and tasty soup dumpling!“
“I always enjoy going to Elephant Jumps Thai restaurant for their food. I usto work across the street back in the days and found out about this restaurant. I have tried a different meal every time I have ordered from here and have never been disappointed. I have moved to Woodbridge and I still make the drive when I want to get some Thai food.“
“My boyfriend and I have become regulars at Pho 72! All the dishes we've tried have been consistently very good (the pho broth is amazing — I usually get the Pho Tai Chin Nam) and the family that runs it are friendly and attentive. This is a yummy, reasonably priced, low-key place to grab dinner in Columbia Heights. Highly recommend!“
“This place is amazing, the price is so worth it. Everything is made fresh, so much flavor, I've been going here for about 2 years now often and I never had a meal that disappoints. You can even sample the soups they have that day, it's great! The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I am not a beef or pork eater and they always have something either vegetarian, chicken or turkey.“
“I have been eyeing Earl's sign about fresh roasted turkey and today I gave it a try (delivery). I have to say that Earl's is a real gem!Turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce: Just divine! Turkey is so tender that it is falling apart (like pulled chicken). Bread is whole grain, fresh, and nice mix of seeds.Garlic chicken sandwich with roasted peppers: my husband said it was really good.Vegetable sandwich (with balsamic vinegar or basil mayo): Excellent, chock full of mushrooms.Salad (with chicken): excellent. We particularly enjoyed the fresh apple slices (tasted like they had lemon juice). The dressing, though, was unexpected, only vinegar (no oil). We ended up using our ranch dressing we had on hand and sprinkled a little vinegar on top.So glad to have tried Earl's and we will definitely do it again (can't stop thinking about the turkey!).Update 3/3/24 We just finished our lunch of Mona Lisa (veggie) and Turkey and brie sandwiches and I am thinking of mine (turkey and brie). The best sandwich I have had (maybe ever). My husband really liked his Mona Lisa, too.“
“Spices is always delicious. It’s one of our go-tos in the neighborhood and has literally never been a disappointment. When you have a spot like this, it’s not easy to remember to give them a review. It’s just such a part of our routine you forget how important online reviews are for restaurants.My personal favorites are their lychee martinis and crab wontons. The sushi is always fresh and delicious and the staff are always very kind.“
“This is my favorite Thai place in Falls Church. They have great food and great service. They even have reusable plastic plates for the little ones :)Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs and reusable plastic plates and silverware for kids“
“Came here for pho but was pleasantly surprised with the empanadas! They were so good ? the pho was average. Nothing really special, thought it was good but wasn’t the best I ever had. The green apple boba was good.I would like to come back and try something else. The ambience is nice, lots of seating on a Sunday evening.“
“Great service, love the ambiance of the Food Hall it's located in! Lots of comfortable seats in the lounge at the front. Very clean, tidy and the music was not too loud. The actual dumplings were divine. The soup in each dumpling was hot, flavorful and easy to drink. The actual bao was a little thin but the fillings were delicious! Next time I may order two. The Rainbow Dumplings (comes with one of each of the six flavors) were all so tasty and each took several bites to enjoy and savor. Have happily found my new favorite Asian place to grab a bite.“
“"It's really delicious! It's even better than the Philly steak I had in Philadelphia. The quesadilla is also incredibly delicious! The sweet potato fries are also incredibly tasty, so I highly recommend them. It was so delicious that I decided to get a sandwich to go and gave it to my daughter. She said, 'Wow, sandwiches can be this delicious too!'" I highly recommend this restaurant.“
“My daughter & I visited this eatery on our trip to DC and absolutely loved everything about it! We got the chicken 1 sandwich & the Greek Goddess, along w/ tomato soup & quinoa chili, & lemonade! Everything was fresh & near perfect. And the owner was delightful to talk to. Wish we had something like this where we live!“
“after grabbing my fav coffee at Little Hat Coffee down the street (inside Streets Market) i stopped by for lunch! phonatics pleasantly surprised me! the pho broth was rich and truly delicious. the portions were generous, and i found myself unable to finish my meal. their summer rolls were a great size, four huge half-rolls. the place offers a decent amount of seating, and the staff is really nice and attentive just a heads-up: payments are made at the counter!“
“Visiting from St Louis and so glad we came across Luke’s Lobster! We ordered Luke’s flight so we could try all three rolls. Each one was so delicious. We also got the lobster bisque and NE clam chowder. Very good!! Friendly service and neat atmosphere.“
“Tom yum soup perfectly spicy and delicate. Green curry was spectacular. Eggplant was beautifully prepared, both texture and flavor! Standard (medium) was not especially spicy, but just left room for the rest of the flavors to shine. I only mention it, if you like spicy, you might want to ask for it. Hands down my new favorite Thai place.“
“I ordered a latte that was just okay. My complaint was the service. The young gentleman at the register was not listening. He asked for clarification for everything about my order and didn’t even ask what my milk preference was. I waited nearly 10 minutes for this small latte. I will not be back.“
“I stumbled upon this place out of convenience and have brought everyone I know here since. Parking is really easy because you can park in the Harris teeter parking garage. The place is very nice on the inside, lighting is great, decore is cool, a pretty small cute place. The waitress was attentive and kind when we had questions or needed some more extra stuff like chili oil. The pho here is the best I’ve had and my friends agree that’s its top tier (they are pho snobs). The broth by itself is flavorful and they don’t skimp on portions. The beef was great and there were so many noodles that were cooked nicely in the pho. I’ve been to about 5 didn’t pho places in the area and this is the best one to me. Now, I got the wings for jokes but was shocked about how good they were. Juicy, crisp, and flavorful. I recommend and bring all my friends here and they echo all the same sentiments. This is a great small business and I will continue to support.Parking: Harris teeter grave next door is free“
“I first started dining at Sala Thai restaurant back in 2018 at the Minnesota Ave location, where I instantly fell in love with their chef fried rice and crispy calamari, among other menu items. When I moved to NE, I made the Rhode Island Row location my new go-to spot and have been a regular visitor ever since, indulging in their delicious Thai iced tea and sushi rolls almost daily. My absolute favorite dish is the Mei Fun (without pork or seafood), and I also enjoy their tofu with spicy basil fried rice, curry puffs, spring rolls, and an assortment of specialty rolls. Lately, I've noticed a significant improvement in their interior, menu offerings, and the quality of service, making my dining experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend paying them a visit for a delightful culinary experience.“
“November 2023 - I've visited Hai Duong many times over the years. Menu has increased and it's a solid restaurant for pho and rice dishes. Though the last time the boiled chicken was dry. Friendly staff, quick to respond. Clean. Do recommend.“
“This place is consistently good. They're so good they are only 1 of the 2 cafes that survived covid. The breakfast choices and options are good. I usually get the traditional breakfast (toast, home fries, eggs and turkey sausage/bacon). They have a good looking cheesesteak sub but unfortunately don't have a chicken cheesesteak. They would be 5-stars.“
“I was a little taking aback when walking in with two other friends, I was told it would be a 20 minute Wait, even to sit at the bar, when they were very few people in the restaurant and more employees. if I return, I will happily reinstate the star lost should the welcoming experience be slightly different and things make more sense.proceeding to the bar, the gentleman did a fantastic job serving us, despite the fact that we were there for unlimited soup and salad. he was on it! thank you!Vegetarian options: you can get things that are vegetarian thereParking: tight garage, but many spaces.“
“Went here for lunch on a weekday, so it was not busy at all which I love. My family comes here to eat whenever we go to Eden. We got a bun mang vit and com tam bi suon cha. They came out pretty quickly. Loved both dishes! So delicious! Make sure you dip the duck meat in the ginger sauce, soooo good. The duck meat is nothing without the sauce that it comes with. My husband loved his com tam as well. Meat was well marinated.“
“I've been to Gom Shabu Shabu Centerville and been here a few times, and the meat and vegetables are definitely fresher these days, so I like it. I didn't like meat before. It's nice to be able to eat warm hot pot food in the winter. However, the waiting time to place a refill order is too long. Even if you ring the bell, the waitresses are busy and don't come often, so you have to keep looking and waiting.“
“My wife and often escape our condo office for their tasty and inexpensive lunch. We also get delivered food from them. No delivery charge, but we tip the driver well. We love their eggplant dishes, meaty spare ribs, duck and so far almost everything on their extensive menu.“
“This spacious store is at the center of DC downtown. I ordered a 6oz warmed lobster roll with butter, and the roll was fully loaded with fresh lobster meat. Good clam chowder soup, thick and creamy. But $37 for a 6 oz lobster roll is not something you can afford it often.“
“It's one of the better places for carry out Chinese food. I recommend it for the neighborhood we lived in, which is the Lincolnia part of Alexandria Their egg drop soup is the best I've ever tasted having visited most of not all Chinese restaurants in Alexandria. Their egg serving is much more their others!“
“I have tried pho restaurants all over Virginia. I've had friend's grandmothers and aunties hit me with the homemade pho. I thought I had greatness but hands down this place kicks all the others in the booty big time. The broth is so clean and flavorful. I've had it hungover and I left the broth out; not one piece of congealed fat from how clean it is. Whoever is making this broth must be protected at all times and I want to send her birthday presents“
“The food was very good. I had the soup if the day. It was a black bean chilli was big pieces of smoked meat and topped with cheese and red onion. Delicious! The collards greens were tender but over seasoned with vinager. I was definitely go back for the chili!“
“For several years my family and I have been coming to Pho restaurant. As you step into large restaurant you notice a sense of freshness and cleanliness. Our favorite server Tony has the upmost professionalism bringing top quality service, very respectful, polite and with great customer service skills. We admire everyone’s dedication to making sure customer leaves happy with the service. Among various delicious food, we recommend crispy chicken wings, veggie spring rolls and beef pho soup. Tropical fruit tea and passion fruit tea are our favorite drinks :)“
“We've dined here a few times, and their pho is generally good, especially on a cold and windy day. Out of all the dishes, Combo #3 Sampler is our favorite. Its generous portions of tasty shrimp cakes and pork meatballs are delightful and can quickly fill our empty stomachs. Overall, the service is decent, and the ambiance is tidy.It's cool these days, and we will return to have hot pho soup from them soon.“
“Katie is the perfect person to have at the front counter! She is bright,cheery, friendly, and just the right amount of conversational. She knows her regular customers by name and greets them personally when they come in. She was helpful when I placed my order, pointing out exactly what would be in my sandwich,allowing me to make a substitution. She is fluent in Spainish and English and easily switches between the two to personalize her customers' experience. She was a delight to encounter.“
“My fav go-to local Chinese joint. This place always delivers and when I do have to go somewhere else because someone else chooses, can’t help but comparing and feeling like I have to eat here soon after to make up for the subpar Chinese food I just had elsewhere. LOVE their in-house made noodles (knife-cut is my preference if you like thick chewy noodles) in the pork with fermented soybean paste (pronounced ja jang myun). Not a noodle soup dish but comes with a small side of broth. A WINNER!“
“Pho Hai Duong is a fantastic spot in Annandale for fresh Vietnamese flavors, and the folks that run it have a very welcoming energy!Their vegetarian options are fantastic, especially the Bánh Xèo Chay, which is a delightfully crispy crepe filled with tofu and veggies that you wrap in lettuce and dip into a deliciate and savory yet sweet sauce. I'll definately be ordering it again.If you dine in, they're very attentive, service is quick, and the food comes out piping hot. The dining area has a warm glow from the lighting, and it's very clean and cozy. If you order take-out, everything is packaged really well for transit.10/10 would recommend!Parking: They're in a strip with other businesses, and have a large parking lot.“
“This is my favorite Panera. I loved sitting here with a bit of food / something to drink and working on my Master's or work projects at the tail end of COVID. I love the big window along one side that looks out on Maple Avenue. Parking is a challenge, but there's plenty around back.“
“Very good Chinese food and plenty of it. Portions were big.Vegetarian options: The Chinese menu has a wide variety of vegetarian optionsDietary restrictions: Many ingredients can be customized to suit your needsParking: Adequate on property parking lotKid-friendliness: Good for kidsWheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible“
“I ordered my favorite soup, one cup of cappuccino and a blueberry scone. The scone wasn't available, and at the pick-up area, they said the steam-machine doesn't work - no coffee. That was frustrating, I asked for a refund. The manager completed my refund, offered fresh coffee, and presented a bag of small scones. That was very nice and my mood became better. ?“
“A little bit confusing to get to the location as the place is inside a building. It’s a bit small but easy to take out your orders. Staffs were kind and friendly. No seating inside but there’s food court near by with available seatings.“
“One of the best Panera in Alexandria, food is amazing. Excellent customer service, especially the young man Adam at the cashier always greeting with a warm smile on his face! Rest of the Staff and manager are really polite and friendly too. Definitely would recommend.“
“Longtime Rx Chix soup fan here. The matzoh balls are light & fluffy, the soup is loaded with healthy veggies and delicious chicken, and the broth is oh so flavorful. I love the spicy hangover and faux pho best of all. Hubs will happily eat bipartisan every meal of every day. But can we just talk about the matzoh brei?!? What a treat! It is so, so, good. There is no better way to eat matzoh and Rx Chix makes an excellent preparation. It’s flavorful, eggy, and buttery deliciousness. Loving the classic and everything! All the goodness of New York’s finest, without any of the cooking. Perfect for a relaxing Passover Sunday.“
“This was the tastiest and fastest to go order I've ever gotten. My aunt comes here all the time, she says she loves it because of the staff and the food is actually delicious. Took her advice so we came here together. The staff is the cutest and super friendly! Some of the members do not speak English but they go out of their way to understand your needs. Luckily my family and I are Spanish speaking so we had a brief conversation while we waited for our chicken. They have amazing options!My aunt got the whole chicken with 4 sides for $34 and I got the whole chicken with 2 sides for $28 (I think). They also have an option for a whole chicken 1/2 with 6 sides for $50! We didn't go with that option only because she was buying for her family and I was buying for mine. Sides are good portions and you have the option to choose between 4 individual sauces or a bigger container for the green and yellow sauce. The place is located in a busy shopping center so parking can be limited. Would recommended calling ahead if you do not plan on eating there only because of the parking situation! Overall the place is small, more suitable for smaller parties. It is very clean and well organized. Like I mentioned before we got our food super fast and the chicken was fresh and still warm after driving 20 mins back home. 10/10 for me!“
“Close to home. Good service at all time, although sometimes food tastes different. The staff are friendly. My 6 years old son is a fan of souffle. We visit this store everydayKid-friendliness: Staff are super nice to my kid. Always have something extra for free. Thank you“
