“54 Restaurant Bar & Lounge is a total vibe. 💅 The energy, the music, the food — everything just flows. The cocktails are gorgeous (and strong 👏), the food was way better than I expected for a lounge, and the staff kept the mood fun all night. Perfect spot for dinner that turns into dancing, or just a chill night with friends who like to dress up and have a good time.“

“I had an exceptional experience at the Chase Sapphire Lounge at Dulles (IAD). From the moment I checked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. The lounge itself is beautifully designed—modern, spacious, and comfortable, with plenty of seating options whether you want to relax, work, or dine.

The food selection was truly impressive for an airport lounge. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The bar was equally outstanding, offering a great mix of cocktails, wines, and non-alcoholic options prepared by knowledgeable bartenders.

What really stood out was the overall atmosphere. Even during busier times, the lounge felt calm and well-managed. The restrooms were spotless, Wi-Fi was fast, and all of the small details—charging ports, lighting, service—were thoughtfully taken care of.

This is easily one of the best lounges I’ve visited in any airport. Chase has done a fantastic job, and I’ll absolutely be coming back every time I fly through IAD.

Highly recommended!“

“Exceptional Service. Culinary Excellence. Our dining experience at JOON was extraordinary, made even better by the exceptional service from our server, Yacine. His thoughtful recommendations, warm demeanor, and perfectly timed attentiveness made for an unforgettable evening. Even as the restaurant got busier, Yacine maintained his focus on us— a warm and welcoming touch that elevated the entire experience. Thank you! As fans of Persian cuisine and frequent shoppers at Yekta Market in Rockville— having recently tried our hand at making Persian dishes like Fesenjan at home— coupled with all of the culinary accolades— we had high expectations for JOON. It not only met but exceeded them. Mast-o Musir, yogurt dish with Persian dried shallot and rose petal, was exceptional— more elevated and nuanced than any we’ve had. The mushroom Khoresht stew with white truffle was another highlight, offering perfectly balanced flavors something hard to do with white truffles and a satisfying richness, complemented by the perfectly crunchy Tahdig, iconic golden rice crust. The braised lamb shoulder which Yacine suggested was the undeniable highlight of the meal I which each dish was excellent. Tender and flavorful, it was paired beautifully with texture. It’s a signature dish that rivals the best we’ve ever had, bringing to mind the legendary Bo Ssam pork shoulder from David Chang’s Momofuku— bold, unforgettable, and expertly prepared. The Gormeh Sabzi, short rib stew with its delicious sour depth, was excellent but couldn’t quite match the lamb’s showstopping brilliance. Two very minor points. While the food and service are exceptional, the main dining room lighting would benefit from dimming. A water filtration water system could make a big difference as well. JOON has firmly secured its place as a must-visit dining destination for us. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu.“

“Eddie V's in Tysons Corner delivered a true five-star experience for my birthday lunch, with Andrews providing courteous, professional, and attentive service that made the meal feel relaxed and special for my wife and me. At the same time, his spot-on timing with check-ins, refills, and courses added a special touch to the visit. The food was outstanding: the ribeye was cooked precisely to order, tender and full of flavor; the salmon was perfectly prepared, and the crab fried rice was generously packed with crab and delicious enough to stand on its own. The upscale yet comfortable atmosphere rounded out the experience, making Eddie V's in Tysons Corner an excellent choice for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or enjoy a delicious meal with exceptional service and top-notch cuisine.“

“Fabulous place for pool and 20oz beer for starters and food looked real good too . Wish tables were better maintained had stains one some but i guess they are weekend spills and will be taken care of . Decent beer collection could be nicer to have some more taps“

“A friend and I just had the best breakfast in recent memory. As two former bartenders and servers who have worked in the restaurant industry for over a decade +, Jeannie is easily one of the best servers we have come across. If you’re in the area, treat yourself to fantastic experience. All starts.“

“After a long, lackluster day of a birthday—I went to Lulu cafe. And it was the best way possible to conclude my birthday last night. The vibe was really chill and energetic at the same time. The staff as well as the customers just made it a wonderful place to celebrate with my friends. The karaoke rooms had great sound quality and everything about it was designed for a good time. I will definitely be back. Everyone was dancing and getting hyped, even if they were just sitting down and drinking. It was like being on an episode of Adventure Time. High energy, humorous and just solid times.“
