Bridget is awesome. Serves with a happy face, strong smile, no judgement. Made me felt welcome, extremely welcome after a long difficult time. I appreciate that very much.

Great service and food. We enjoyed sitting outside and listening to Fairfax City's Rock The Block. Both my gyro and my partner's chicken and cheese sub were generous and tasty. I also absent-mindedly left my credit card on the table and when I called the next day they had found it and set it aside for me which I really appreciated.

I haven’t been here many years. They closed for a while and reopened a year ago. We went to three other restaurants never got served (we waited, then we had to leave) came here and fantastic service with Frankie (A+ service!). Love the atmosphere (old-school place) food was great.

A small but pleasant bar. Not an extensive menu (both food and drinks), but it's quite good, and reasonable in price! While we were there, we took in a really good cover band ("Barco Beats") that apparently plays there the 3rd Saturday each month. We'll be back!
Only issue is the A/C was a bit excessive, blowing cold air on us.

New owner and he's on point. The food is great quality and the staff are welcoming. I love the curving bar and all the tvs. It's an easy choice for me.

The Old Fire Station is a great dive bar/ restaurant with a cozy atmosphere. I enjoyed a few fantastic dirty martinis. Friendly staff. Great music, good food. This bar is the definition of the great American bar scene. They don’t make them like this anymore! Great spot.

I really wanted to like this place… but unless I’m a few drinks in… the food ain’t it. Got chicken tenders, steak and cheese and chicken souvlaki pita. They all came out so hot. There’s no way it wasn’t put in the microwave.
All of the food was very mediocre and the price was a bit ridiculous. I paid $15 for two very thin chicken tenders and some fries. Honestly, it’s probably a great place to drink and watch TV/sports but I definitely would not go there for the food. Bummer!

The Dive Bars are where you can find the magic of bartenders!
Bartender has no clue how to make a drink - absolutely awful. Will never be back.
