17 Best American Restaurants in Fairfax

“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!“

“TL;DR: good pizza and fast service

We have been to the one in Tyson's locations,, but we finally got a chance to try this location. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor season, with a full bars with TVs as well. There are two distinct lines, one for whole pies and one for by the slice. They also have a handful of combos which is the way we went.

We got the pepperoni special (5/5) which was our favorite. The sausage and pepper (3/5) was solid but nothing special. Overall, the dough/crust was a perfect balance of crunch, chew, and substance.

Already itching to go back and try other pizzas!“

“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.“

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

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

“My friend and I had a wonderful dining experience at Hamrock's! Are server was so welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The menu had so many gluten-free items, it was really hard for me to decide what to order.
I will definitely be back!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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).“

“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!“

“Hello, I am here to talk about my experience at Oh George. It was a very wonderful and comfortable experience, and I will be making sure to come back and dine in again. The service was sublime, quick, and very pleasant. There is a very kind hostess by the name of Madelin who made sure to prioritize my comfort and dining experience, which is why it is so elevated. 10/10, please do consider dining here, because the experience is very worthwhile.“

“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.“

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

“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!!“

“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.“

“Nice placê, wonderful food!“

“Amazing food great atmosphere and they except reservations“
