22 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Fairfax

“We have worked with Charity, at the Fair Lakes Chick-fil-A, many times for our Waples Mill Elementary PTA and can’t be more complementary! They have supported countless events, we’ve made purchases from this store for our families, and today they donated 2boxed of coffee with all of the accoutrements for our PTA Board meeting. We are just incredibly thankful for their community, outreach and generosity! Thank you so much, you are a wonderful!! Sincerely, The Waples Mill PTA Family“

“The best banana pudding milkshake out of any place we've been to, and it's not even close. The California burger was amazing and perfectly made. This is a must-try place, especially if you've never been before! It was our first time, and we absolutely loved it! The only issue was the size of the fries; they are on the smaller side, but that did not affect the taste. We just wished they were bigger.“

“I’ve been to a couple of Afghan Kabob restaurants but this one was truly really great and tasty. The food was delicious and the customer service was the best. I highly recommend trying out Fairfax Kabob!“

“Order from their website for the first time. Food was ready on time. Sadly I was given steak fries instead of the yucca I ordered. In the future I will check my order for accuracy before leaving the store. The red potatoes were delicious. The chicken was very flavorful and not dried out.“

“The food was delicious . I really enjoyed the fried yucca. It was light and crispy for yucca fries. I really enjoy the chicken, it was flavorful and juicy. The fried rice could have been a little better. It was sitting in the warmer for a while, so it was a bit on the dry side. Overall, great place to have something quick and convenient.“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Love that the guy behind the counter felt the need to share some ethnic tv show from his country with the customers. It had women wailing and dancing . Of course he had it turned up at a robust volume so all could enjoy. 🙄
The food is good and decently priced.
The sidewalk outside needs washed. Icky.“

“The parking lot seems a bit cramped. The drive through is very slim so be ready to take it slow if it's your first time.
The spicy chicken breakfast sandwich was fire!!!! Best spicy Chick-fil-A chicken I've had by far.
They do frequently mess up orders so make sure to check“

“Omg � best burgers by far Great service and what a team effort Well done I'm from Melbourne Australia � Would highly recommend this place soooo Fresh“

“Food here is excellent! The street corn has so much flavor! Love the mango salsa!! I got a baja bowl with chicken and black beans; my boyfriend got a chicken burrito. Both were very good! We ordered via Door Dash, but will definitely give the restaurant a try next time for sure. Highly recommend. Get the street corn!!“

“Recently I took my team here for a team lunch for the 4th to have burgers and hotdogs… the team there was checking on us often and the food came out quick…. I but I want to highlight their limited pistachio “Dubai” chocolate milk shake… fire!“

“This is my go to Wendy's for a quick bite when I'm working an evening schedule. The food has always come out fresh and piping hot. I tried their Crispy Panko Fish sandwich for the first time and must say I was rather impressed. All the elements came together perfectly; the steamed bun, the savory, crispy panko breaded fish patty, oozing melty cheese, and a generous amount of dill tartar sauce. I like how they added pickles, which I thought helped to heighten the other flavors in the sandwich.“

“I have bi-monthly get togethers of about 20 people. We only order vegan pizza, and we always order from Mod. I love how easy it is to order online, including how easily it is to request extra sauce and other toppings, and best of all they have vegan cheese, vegan italian sausage, and lots of other vegetable (and pineapple) toppings.“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“One thing ppl love to do on this campus is hate 😭 Like it’s a regular chick fil a. The place is a little ugly, sure, but their food tastes the same as every other chick fil a. If you like chick fil a, then you can go to this one if it’s convenient for you“

“I highly recommend the donuts. Visited Fairfax duck donuts about a month ago. However, the service was horrible. The staff was unfriendly, the cashier never greeted us and just took our order and passed it on to the next person. The T-shirt she was wearing was dirty and covered in flour. Maybe an apron that could be changed when dirty would be a good idea. The young lady who put the toppings on the donuts kept looking over her shoulder at a child who was crying and glaring at the mother. She was slow anyway and that made her even slower. When she finally gave me my order, again no greeting just slid the box toward me. I Commented I was missing missing one donut. Her reply was oh yeah I forgot to put that in the box. No apologies or anything. So as I said the donuts were great. Absolutely love them. But the staff need some training in customer service.“

“TASTE (7.5/10): Chicken burritos were hit or miss. The cheaper one (possibly enchilada-style) wasn’t great, but the $5+ burrito was quite satisfying. The ground meat texture wasn’t my favorite, but it’s pretty typical for Mexican-style burritos. The sauces were surprisingly good, definitely a highlight.

PRICE (9/10): Very affordable. A solid choice when you’re hungry and watching your wallet.

SERVICE (8.5/10): The self-service system was smooth and informative, better than McDonald’s. Ordering was quick, and the way they called out initials was efficient.

ATTITUDE (7/10): Minimal human interaction, but the system worked well.

PLACE (8/10): Not crowded, and there was parking available. Clean and orderly environment. Nothing fancy, but functional.

CLEANLINESS (8/10): Everything looked clean and maintained. No complaints here.

ADDITIONAL FEES / HIDDEN COSTS (10/10): None. Straightforward pricing.

OVERALL IMPRESSION: Cheap, filling, and efficient. If only the meat texture were more to your taste, it could’ve scored even higher.“

“I recently visited Five Guys and ordered a little hamburger with all my favorite toppings— gladly discovered that every topping is free! The burger and fries felt fresh. I spent about $20, which is on the pricier side, but the quality and good taste made it worth it. Special thanks to Marelyn S, whose friendly and attentive service made my visit smooth and pleasant. I also loved their free peanuts—especially the roast flavor. Overall, it was a fresh, delicious, and welcoming experience, would be nice to repeat!“

“Best coffee I’ve ever had“

“Had an amazing tuna sandwich at Sunway. Sandra from Subway took my order and prepared it very well.

I would like to come again!

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free meals are available

Parking: Accessible“

“I want to give a huge shoutout to the Popeyes in Braddock! Every time I go there, the staff are always so nice, helpful, and very accommodating. It’s a complete difference compared to the Rolling Rd location near us, where we unfortunately stopped going because of repeated issues. The Braddock team truly makes the experience enjoyable and worth the trip—I’d rather drive a little farther and be treated kindly. Thank you for the great service and delicious food!“

“Good to see a business support the local Fire Departments and they have superb tasty subs....“
