39 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Dumfries

“Food and service were excellent!“

“I hadn’t been to IHOP in years due to previous bad experiences but decided to go to this one on a whim and it brought me back to being a fan. Raquel and the other morning waitstaff are always friendly and they know all the regulars by name and by order. Food is always good and quick.“

“First time there , recommended by a friend. Very impressed loved the beer. Not a IPA person but the stout and pumpkin were great. Going to be one of my favorite breweries RL“

“I had the black noodles, galbi and the spicy beef stew, and these dishes were outstanding. The galbi was perfectly marinated—sweet, savory, and grilled to tender perfection with just the right amount of char. Every bite was juicy and full of flavor.

The spicy beef stew (yukgaejang) was equally impressive. Rich, hearty, and packed with shredded beef, vegetables, and just the right level of heat. It had that deep, comforting flavor that warms you from the inside out. The broth was addictive, and the portion was generous.

Great service, cozy atmosphere, and authentic Korean flavors. This place is a must-visit for Korean food lovers! A great place for authentic, hearty Korean meal.“

“I LOVE that Stafford had a location! For the longest time I had to travel to route 3 Central Park, but now there’s one right by my house. I love getting Crumbl for special events or for a special treat at home. The flavors are always so good but I have to say the semi sweet classic chocolate chip cookie is my all time favorite!“

“Amazing atmosphere, lots of room and space. Friendly and helpful staff. We will be back!“

“Pastrami Rueben was awesome!! Great Cole Slaw too!! Definitely recommended!! Thank you our server, Sarah!! A+ service and food.“

“This is the best burger I’ve ever had!!“

“Great time was had by all!“

“First time there and enjoyed the selection. Will go back again!“

“Great people! Great variety of flavors!“

“We will definitely return! Totally were pleased to see a great outdoor area close to kayaking. Service couldn't be better. Delivery was unexpectedly quick! The popcorn shrimp was ample and so well seasoned. The hot pretzel came out overcooked and too hard, but they were so accommodating with a replacement, and didn't ask for it, but they refunded us for the inconvenience. Totally unnecessary, but the thoughtfulness and friendliness caught our attention and is a large reason we'll continue to patronize them. Also, I could definitely bring home a large dish of the cucumber salad -- so refreshing and tasty! Hope there's a fall/winter plan to keep it open. We noticed there were individual fire pits/tables. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“Had the Spicy Pork Lunch box and it was absolutely delicious! The pork was incredibly tender and bursting with flavor. The rice was cooked perfectly and the sides were crisp and fresh. The staff were friendly and attentive and the price was very reasonable. If you are ever in the area, I heartily recommend Korean Grill!“

“I have been to Robiolina's multiple times. It is by far my favorite restaurant. Do not let the store front fool you. This restaurant is classy the service is incredible and I dream of the Lamb Ravioli. A beautiful selection of wine and italian brews! The food is incredibly tasty, is fresh, and will leave you feeling amazing!“

“This establishment is outstanding and the service is exemplary. Jenn our bartender was attentive and on point. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely delicious grilled portobello sandwich! Delightful soup and sandwich place. Love that any sandwich can be converted to a salad (but honestly that soft toasted whole wheat bread was divine)
Reusable dishes are expensive but glasses and washable silverware would make this place perfect.“

“The food is outstanding! All made fresh and so delicious. Family owned and very friendly. The calamari was perfectly cooked and had a beautiful dusting as opposed to a heavily breaded crust. The grilled octopus was tender and flavorful. We’ve sat both outside in the relaxing courtyard and inside the casual restaurant. This restaurant beats the food at Old Town’s Greek restaurants. Highly recommend this place!!“

“Muy buena comida muy bien a tendida“

“Easy going, no sales pressure. Very helpful.“

“We fell in love with PPW the minute we toured it! The Italian vibes were perfect for our August wedding. Taylor, Francesca, and the rest of the PPW team made sure we had a perfect day! Food was 10/10, and our guests still talk about the grape stomping to this day. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a gorgeous winery wedding!“

“We just want to see the Occoquan old city area just had a close look at the elegance of this beautiful location and want to have a cup of coffee and any snacks, found this Bally whack shack cafe, awesome location went up to the coffee shop ordered some lattes also muffin, the service was excellent, very kind staff on counter, feeling an antique, atmosphere around, had coffee And snacks at outside really enjoying awesome beauty of nature from there . Amazing experience.“

“Delicious custard. We love the flavors and all the special treats. We also love how supportive this small business is of their local community. ❤️“

“My favorite grocery store. Traveling through Virginia, stopped for some baked goods. Wegmans always has baked goods especially in the fall. And I love their pumpkin pie. However, all the baked goods today looked like they were dried out and they just looked bad so I didn’t even get the pumpkin pie because it looked like it was cracked and old and dry. I just got a few cookies and they were good, but I still like Wegmans the fruit is fresh“

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

“Food 8s very good. Dining room was clean and with a nice ambiance. A little rough on service start we had to listen to waitress vent about how she has to serve Alo e and the guy who was to show up to help won:t be in until 5pm. Also referencing that don't ask her questions that are obvious in the menu. Later she turned super nice. A must try if you are in the area. The food is fresh and delicious“

“First time visit and it was great! The food was fantastic (best French fries ever) and the staff was very nice and friendly. I will be back!“

“The pupusas here are the best in NOVA! I have tried just about all restaurants serving pupusas in the area and Xela does not disappoint. They’re well sized, well priced, and the filling is delicious and authentic. I have a doctorate in pupusas, trust that these are the best!“

“Nice flavors and properly prepared (Moms dish - chicken & broccoli). I had the Bi Bem Bop. Flavors were good. I do prefer the more traditional hot bowl to crisp the rice with other ingredients hot. But this was still a nice BBB.“

“Had a fabulous Saturday night meal here. The Frites were incredible. I could go back again and again to try all the great dishes! Service was excellent, atmosphere relaxed and lovely. What a gem!“

“Mr. Sams resteraunt is the best! there are so many food options from pizza, wings, subs, butter chicken gyros, ect. Everything that my family has tried is amazing. we found the resteraunt about 2 years ago, every since this is the only place we get food from when we order out. Mr. Sam's resteraunt prime pizza and grill has become a house hold name for us and brings us together whether over a delicious meal or phone calls to tell what we tried today. Everytime we order and taste something great and new we will make sure we share the experience with everyone. Thanks again Mr. Sam! My mom of course loved the pizza she picked up and the specialty.“

“The Tropical Smoothie Cafe in Lorton offers such a wonderful and positive experience. The staff, especially Evelyn, Tesla, and Sheila are friendly and efficient. They all put forth “ over the top effort” to make your food exactly the way you like it. I love the way they make my Mocha Madness. It is so creamy, flavorful and thick. When I go away for a few weeks, I immediately make my way back to this TSC the day after I get back. I so enjoy purchasing the freshly made Chicken Thai Salad. I can’t say enough good things about the staff, their efficiency, friendliness and knowledge. The cafe is kept clean. I have watched them keep the entire area clean where they are preparing our food, and cleaning the equipment. I have gone in early and seen them preparing for the day. It is quite a united effort. Again, the cafe is clean and has a nice atmosphere. I highly recommend everyone visit this Tropical Smoothie location in Lorton if you are nearby or even if you are not. Make your way there. I have passed other TSC locations just to come here.“

“Sunny's Seafood in Woodbridge Va has the best fish dinners best prices real good breakfast best prices and the owners of this restaurant are very nice people Sunny & and his Wife we call her Mis Kim they are so kind with great food with real good experience service 😋“

“Took my family to eat at Famous Dave’s in Woodbridge, VA. Food was great and service by GABY was excellent!“

“My friend just moved here, and while exploring the area we came across this Vietnamese restaurant. What a gem! After trying it once, I knew I had to come back.

On my first visit, I ordered the combination beef pho, and it was absolutely amazing—rich broth, fresh herbs, tender meat, and flavors that just hit the spot. It was so good that it made me return a second time, and this time I tried the oxtail pho (special) to go. Wow! The broth was deep and flavorful, the oxtail was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and everything was packaged perfectly for takeout.

The restaurant itself is cozy and welcoming, the staff is friendly, and the service is quick. You can tell they really put care into their food. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and everything tastes fresh.

I’ve had pho at many places, but this is honestly one of the BEST OF THE BEST PHO I’ve ever had. If you love Vietnamese food, this spot is a must-try. I will definitely be coming back again and again!“

“Service is excellent Food delicious“

“Great tacos, sour ales and beeeer!!!“

“Great food for a community club house. Lots of amenities and great views. I love the burger. Good service and the staff was very friendly and helpful getting us situated.
10/16/2025 - 5 years later, this is the only place I get my burger. I've tried a lot of other places but nothing beats this one.“
