“I have only been here a few times and Josh the Bartender remembers my name each time!!! GREAT BARTENDER!!!“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“Great food! Discovered this hidden gem a few months ago and now it’s one of our faves. Great variety of pizzas!! My youngest loves their naked wings! Thai chicken salad is awesome! Try their spicy honey garlic fries! Addicting!! Calzones are great and filling!!! Prices are very reasonable! Keep it up!!“

“Such a great experience celebrating our 41st anniversary at Seasons 52! Our server, Ben, was extremely gracious and made sure we were able to take our time, and celebrate our special evening. He made sure to time each course perfectly in time with our own pace. We really appreciate the management and chef at Seasons! They were very generous with a champagne toast, a special tuna tartare anniversary presentation, and a special celebratory dessert! Of course, we topped it off with their signature mini-desserts of key lime pie and the cheesecake & caramel. Each of our courses was superb - from the appetizer of the charcuterie board, to the lobster bisque soup, and the excellent wood-grilled filet mignon made perfectly to my wife's and my liking! Accompanied by one of our favorite Bordeaux wines. Many thanks to our server, Ben, the chef and the management team at this Seasons for taking such great care of us! You are absolutely a reason we keep coming back!“

“Chelsea was an amazing waitress! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our meal. She had a great attitude, checked on us regularly without being intrusive, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Her service was fast, professional, and helped make our dining experience even better. I would definitely ask for Chelsea again and highly recommend her!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Can't believe it took me this long to eat here. Definitely worth it. Can't go wrong with anything u pick. The only think that competes with the food is the quality of the drinks. However both of those are outshine by the service. This place definitely makes it onto my standard rotation list.“

“This place is a true local gem. Food is of very high quality, and everything is consistently cooked to perfection. Their consistency is actually really impressive - I’ve never been disappointed by a single thing, and I’ve eaten A LOT of their food. But everything is so good, so I haven’t really made my way outside of the same few items from their menu. The difference is that the staff actually care about their customers, and take pride in their food. It’s not so common these days, and is a pleasant surprise. It’s the reason I will always eat there.“

“Meet up with my girl for happy hour. The food was so good. We both ordered the loaded pepperoni pizza off the happy hour menu. We also ordered the spinach dip to share. I ordered the Jenn's Blackberry Rickey (2) based off Kyle's recommendation and it did not disappoint. The service was amazing, Kyle's was very knowledgeable with the menu and drink suggestions. He was friendly and very attentive. The atmosphere was great nice and low key and we had the perfect spot for us. We have a great time and plan on returning soon.“

“Had an absolutely fantastic dinner at this Yard House location! The vibe was lively, the food was hot and delicious, and the craft beer selection was on point as always. What really made the night stand out was our server, Noni. She was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable about the massive menu. She took excellent care of our table, ensuring our drinks were always full and our food came out perfectly. Despite the restaurant being quite busy, she maintained a warm and positive attitude. Noni went above and beyond, and we will definitely be returning—just hoping to sit in her section again!“

“We enjoyed brunch here for our anniversary. I have several food allergies and I was well accommodated. The food was wonderful and the service friendly. We will be back“

“ONE Bar&Grill is our number one restaurant choice in Old Town Fairfax. We have visited several times and EVERY meal has been amazing! Mina the owner, and Stephanie along with all the servers are first class people. Fairfax is fortunate to have such a top notch restaurant! We look forward to many future visits.“

“Burtons is such a blessing for those with allergies! Staff are highly trained, and everything is labeled so carefully! Every server has been top notch and the food is amazing!“

“Today, after landing at DC Reagan we decided to waste time while waiting for our hotel room at the Archer Tysons to be prepared. While searching AI this restaurant came up so after reading the reviews we decided to visit.

The aesthetic of the restaurant was gorgeous, neither feminine nor masculine but definitely modern and warm. We decided to sit at the bar which was very comfortable and boasted plenty of seating. The bartender/server, Carlos , looked up and saw us and initially didn’t speak ..my husband tapped my leg which is usually an indication to leave but I said let’s give him a chance and boy were we happy we did !

Carlos was fun, courteous, prompt, and extremely knowledgeable during our visit. He gave us his recommendations on drinks, food, and also shared all the specials the company was offering.

Hubby had the Burger and fries and I had the Turkey Burger with sweet potato fries. We also had alcoholic beverages , hubby had a delicious maple old fashioned and I had the blackberry margarita. Everything was cooked to perfection and Carlos put his entire foot in those drinks 🥰!

For dessert I ordered an inflammation Wellness drink because the ingredients looked interesting and it was delicious!

We shared stories of our travels and Carlos shared his experiences in Thailand. The restaurant honored a military discount for me (retired Veteran) and our bill with a 25% tip was about $91

Overall I would say our experience was a 10/10! Restaurant and restrooms were extremely clean, food & drinks were delicious and Carlos was the cherry on top!“

“Visiting Old Town Fairfax, I was attracted because it was the only restaurant on a Wednesday night that had a real vibe. The Ahi tuna was pretty good, not the best I've had, and the service was good. I'd go back because of the vibe.“

“The best restaurant in the DMV area! amazing halal food and 10/10 customer service! �“

“Amazing gluten free food. Delicious. I thought I would never have onion rings again“

“Comfortable, friendly, good choices, efficient service, tasty food. Nice plating.“

“Oh my gosh, everything about this place is soooo what I wanted. Beautiful spread out garden seating, friendly professional service, and really good food. We will be back for sure!

Edit: Still love this place but couldn't go today because they don't allow dogs in their outdoor area. Bummer! Plus my dog is like super cute so they should have made an exception.“

“The branzino was fresh and deliciously prepared. The accompanying bread was freshly baked. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Food was awesome! Atmosphere was warm! Wait staff extremely attentive. We LOVE that it is farm to table, they have their own bee hives and grow their own herbs! Menu was unique and the octopus appetizer was SO crazy good!“

“Great music on a Friday night!“

“First visit today for my birthday lunch and loved the vibe and the food!“

“I’m in love with the Ellote street corn they have it down“

“Best beers I've had in a long time! So many great and creative options of beers! Every one I sampled was OUTSTANDING! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Hats off to the brewer and the staff are SOOO friendly, professional and helpful! Great atmosphere and the outdoor patio is an added bonus on beautiful days!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I have always had great experiences at Bear Branch Tavern, but today I had Ash and Maria as my server and bartender. They were fantastic. I could not recommend them enough. Every time I go back I am going to try and get Ash as my server. 10/10 experience, 10/10 food. Will definitely be back.“

“Consistently good food at a good value along with good service. Our family has enjoyed Open Road since it opened and it has consistently remained a go-to dinner spot for our family or a game watching spot with friends. only slight drawback is parking, but worst case there is parking about 2 blocks away.“

“great food, great prices and great service! food is always fresh, they offer lots of free samples and offerings like their miso soup, and the workers are always very kind and friendly. also a nice bodega-like atmosphere to take a break in the day and grab a snack. come here next lunch break!!!“

“Our favorite local spot… always great food, service and drinks, always consistent!“

“The food is great! I highly recommend“

“Reasonably priced drinks and karaoke was fun!“

“I’m only in town for a week, but have already been here twice since it’s short trip from where I’m staying and I enjoy a good brew pub. Ate at the bar both times. Food and service were 💯both times. I had the bacon wrapped meatloaf and the supreme pizza. Meatloaf was great, pizza’s ok. I tried both their hazy beers and the Freedom and Founders IPAs, all good choices. I’m planning on bringing my husband for my 3rd visit before heading home. Looking forward to having the Stroganoff pasta on my next visit. Would highly recommend for food and craft beer selections.“

“Good food. Not kid friendly“

“I visited the restaurant approximately a month ago and was greeted by Shirley and Tiffany who were very warm and welcoming to my guest and I. Shirley walked us to the table near the fire place and she was sooo professional and kind. We truly felt welcomed. Thank you both!!!“

“Tried Cozy District Cafe today ✨
The place truly feels cozy just like its name. The interior is warm and relaxing, perfect for a morning coffee or a quiet brunch. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better 🤍

What we ordered:

Cortado ☕️ — 8/10
Cherry Blossom Latte 🌸 —10/10
Danish 🥐 — 10/10
Croissant 🥐 — 8/10
Beef & Cheddar Panini 🥪 — 8/10

Overall, the food was delicious, the pastries were amazing, and the atmosphere was so comfortable. Definitely a spot worth visiting 👌✨“

“I was hesitant to stop here because I wanted a sit down restaurant for breakfast, however I am very glad I did!! I ordered Breakfast #1 (2 eggs, meat, potatoes and toast) for $6.99 and devoured the eggs before I thought to take a pic.
Very clean. Ladies behind counter are very nice. Food was excellent. Will be coming back if in Fairfax.“

“We hosted a happy hour there, staff are super fun and nice, food is awesome, cocktail is really good!“

“The food appears... lesser quantity than in DC. The biscuits were smaller, and harder. I saw no bacon. The sausage (pork or chicken) was not "week done" as with the DC restaurant. Also there wasn't any shrimp. I got there at 9:am, and was told reservations were needed. So I Sat at the bar. Def a 3.5 rating on food here“

“Food was so good! Not too salty but very flavorful. The short rib was very tender, chowder was fresh and tasty, fried chicken was juicy and crispy, pork tenderloin was perfectly cooked. The sides were perfectly cooked as well. And service was awesome.“

“We ate out on the patio which was sunny despite the umbrellas. We had a good combination of sun and shade for those of us who worship and those who avoid the sun.

The service was excellent. Diego, our waiter, was friendly and attentive. The patio is close by the splash park and the kids were playing joyfully in the park - good background noise without being too loud.

We ordered 2 appetizers, the table bread and the calamari. The table bread was a well seasoned, oiled flat bread that was crisp on the outside but tender to eat. It was perfectly made. The calamari was lightly battered, crisp, and not oily. The flavor was excellent. There was also pickled and fried jalapeno chips mixed in which were delicious.

Everyone else ordered a pizza, I ordered a burger. The burger was well seasoned, juicy, and cooked perfectly - I always get my burgers well done. The bun was fresh and light.

Everyone loved their pizzas. The fig and prosciutto pizza had chunks of figs, not just a fig jam. The one person in the group who ordered the cauliflower crust said it was good and crunchy.

We definitely enjoyed the Fairfax / Merrifield Matchbox much more than we had enjoyed the Reston version. I highly recommend.“

“Cool place to eat and drink!“
