23 Best American Restaurants in Fairfax

“I love the food and great service!👍♥️“

“Incredible. Delicious. Wow.
One must eat their slice on site. I took the create 8 slices which was great. BUT the slice I ate there was beyond spectacular. The crispy delicate crust was lost at home compared to my experience at Andy's. Reheating pizza is an art, but there as something special at the restaurant. My first experience with Andy's but I already have favorites:
#1 - pepperoni
#2+ - mushroom & onion and the white.
I also purchased the Albe Barolo 2022 and enjoyed at home. Very berry, light, and did not disappoint. Paired well with the pizza!
Made my Friday night dinner easy and delicious. I highly recommend Andy's!“

“Carlos is the very best! He is a great server and took care of us. My daughter's birthday was awesome because of him! Kudos to this location which also takes GREAT care of its Beer Club members! We'll be back soon!“

“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.“

“Great, go to place for consistent service and quality food!“

“Was super bz on a Sunday and service was okay but our waitress wasn’t all that great.“

“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.“

“Wonderful food, the trout was amazing and so was the shrimp and crab fritter appetizer. Our waiter Matthew was seriously the best and sweetest waiter I’ve ever had in my life. We are here for vacation but we will without a doubt come back here the next time we are in the area.“

“Amazing food great atmosphere and they except reservations“

“It was a great experience coming back into Matchbox after not being here for quite some time! The food and atmosphere were wonderful, but the service truly made the night. Pepe (Jose) was extremely attentive, welcoming, and professional. It was so nice to see such a friendly face greeting us. We will definitely not wait so long to return next time. Highly recommended!“

“We visited Hamrock's for their 10-year anniversary dinner menu, and it was an amazing experience! Every dish was made with high-quality ingredients, the portions were generous, and the flavors were incredible. The wine paired perfectly with the meal and was just as impressive.

The atmosphere was cozy, relaxing, and perfect for a nice dinner. We especially loved the outdoor garden patio, it added such a charming touch to the experience. The staff was welcoming, and everything from start to finish was excellent. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend Hamrock's to anyone looking for a great meal in Fairfax!“

“Amazing food and also gluten free options we had the crab guac, lobster tacos and Bouillabaisse. Chris the bartender made great margaritas and martinis. Highly recommend.“

“Wow, Sunday happy hour from 12-6, at 5pm place was packed. Reduced price included $1 oysters! Had bunch of O's, Onion rings, Bruschetta (unique that it was baked), Chicken slider 2 sliders (half of tender) with Cole slaw and fries, Smash burger, wings. All from happy hour menu. Lots of drink choices (beer, cocktails, wines,....) Food was very good, service was good but waiter did forgot the Onion rings, I reminded twice and it came out with last orders. But, will visit again. Normal menu prices are in line with typical sit in restaurant (20-30 avg).“

“Excellent food and wine!! Highly recommend Monday mussel nights (3 different flavors!) - our favorite was the blue cheese one. While we had no reservation, we were accommodated on the patio and received wonderful service. The French wine was perfect for a hot summer night. We’ll definitely be back! The pommes frites with basil aioli was perfect as an appetizer. The duck special was my personal favorite.“

“As every other Sunday, great family time …“

“This place was a quick find for our first American restaurant experience in the States after being away for four years.

Here’s my take on this restaurant from a European perspective. The portions are huge and the menu is plentiful. The service was amazing and prompt. Our waitress Pía was exceptionally personable and helpful. On weekends they serve brunch, which was lovely. The waffles and syrup in the chicken and waffles complemented one another perfectly. However, the chicken was less than tasty. It lacked flavor that even the syrup couldn’t supplement. The dinning area is huge and has an inviting feel.

Overall, the meal was good but lacked in some areas. The price for lunch/brunch floored me: $114 for a family of four! That’s a little too steep for this dad. Nevertheless, the experience was fun and the dinning was great for our first meal back.“

“Nice placê, wonderful food!“

“My wife and I brought the kids here after spending the day in State College. It was excellent. Fresh food, good prices (kids eat free with a regular purchase). Will definitely be back!“

“The BBQ pizza was dope as hell. Nice environment“

“homey“

“Nice, chill location. the food was good. I ordered the 10pc wings with fries. I don't recommend getting the honey mustard sauce. it's the cost of a drink🥴, literally. Why something the same size as ranch or blue cheese costs the same as a drink (while the ranch and blue cheese don't cost extra), I'm not sure. If you're like me and don't eat ranch or blue cheese, bring your own honey mustard. other than that, I highly recommend.“

“We really like Denny's service and food at a good price. Indira, a server, make suggestions for the great pancakes. I think the strawberry ones were over the top. It is a family restaurant that is really friendly. Good menu for any time of the day.“

“The college is very pretty! Hard to find your way around, if you have never been there. Went for the arts and craft fair on November 9th. Wish there would have been signs showing where to go. The art and crafts from the students were nice to see. The painting s/drawings and jewelry were unique!!“
