“Food and drinks were excellent- we loved everything we tried! Service felt extremely rushed. We had a 6:30 pm reservation on a Saturday night and were done with drinks, apps, and dinner by 7:10. We were told we needed to put our entire order in at once as opposed to staggering it. The app arrived before we even got our drinks. Five minutes later, the entrees were out. We understand the need to turn over tables, but this was just way too rushed for our liking.”
“This is an upcale place. Very nice and pleasant set up. You can choose either three, or five course meal or a la carte. It's expensive restaurant but the food quality is very high, exquisite quality. French chef with fine training. Food was balanced in flavor and indulging in taste.Service was good, but my only comment probably would be that there was some rushing into ordering. There was feeling of obligation instead of full relaxing time. We chose to order from a la carte, but still would like some more relaxed setting with longer transition between meals. We still had Appetizers not done when main food was brought out. In such expensive places I expect that service to be more attentive on timing and make transition to the next course smooth and relaxing for customer. I would like to finish my first course before the next comes. Also, at the end our shared food was taken away as soon as our main course.was done. We were yet conversing and not ready to go yet. But they quickly brought desserts book out and felt rather a must to get the dessert, which I planned not to have due to late hour. Oh well, can't complain, it was tasty. The bill was brought out right away after dessert, no waiting, and picked up so quickly after paying, did not wait till we leave.Service in general was good, friendly but more rushed than ought to be in such upscale place.”

“I went to the Falls Church location YEARS ago. This location is even better. They have Thai and Laotian food, but you want to stick to the Laotian menu.I had the Siin Savanh to start and then the Naem Khao Thadaeu salad. Both were outstanding. I'm looking forward to going back”
“The meal was exquisite. The dishes were well presented, creative and delicious as well as showing upon rather generous, dare we say it, North American portions. Our server (and others passing) was/were fantastic but we did sit at the bar and not at a table. This was a choice that we consciously made because we were celebrating our 19th anniversary sans children. Intimacy. A few reviews complain about price or the lack of selections on the menu. All we can say is: post-COVID prices have gone up significantly but that is true for everything that we, as a community, consume today. It might be harder to stomach the price increases for discretionary expenses like a fancy meal. In any event, please do not expect 1980s or even 2019 prices. Secondly, yep, it is pricey, but it is worth every centime. The "limited" menu is what really good restaurants do, not to gouge you, but to spoil you with a core set of dishes that will tantalite the palate of almost every true gourmand. NUE hits the mark rather well. Finally, one kink in the armor, is how food is served today and how waitstaff interact with customers. Partly caused by the clash of generations, e.g., servers and the served may have 30 to 40 years between them, partly because due to COVID the new wave apparently did not get to learn from the OGs who did not return to the hospitality business sector, and is likely partly due to the pace of life in the DMV as practiced by folks with maybe too much money. That service process part needs to be ironed-out, but it is not just an issue at NUE, but at most, if not all, DMV fine food establishments. We, for one, will be back to NUE very soon. We just need to save up for it and we won't have to wait a year.”
“We called in for a last minute dinner reservations, the staff was kind enough to squeeze our party into a table.We were immediately seated and greeted by our server, Han Min Kim, who is one of the friendliest and most professional servers we’ve encountered.The food and ambiance are good, showing a particular attention that goes above and beyond most other Asian chain restaurants.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“A relatively old neighborhood place. The food is very good and the waitstaff is excellent. I would rather not have the musician there on Saturday evening. He plays well but it is hard to talk over the music when the place is full.”
“Food was good, atmosphere is a wine bar type. Outside enclosure with fireplace is romantic. While most of the service was good, waiter clearing spilled oyster juice on my friend's shoulder. She had to smell it for the rest of the evening.”
“I totally agree with the other customers. We ate dinner in one of their booths last night. Had chicken slouvaki and Greek salad . Both were excellent. We wolfed down the salad and then then savored the tasty chicken souvlaki accompanied by buttery rice. Will be back to check out other entrees. Took home some superb baklava for dessert. Staff is very friendly”

“I love this place. The only part is the parking, especially in the weekends. It’s a very popular spot and close to a residential area but the food is phenomenal.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at this exquisite five-star restaurant, and it was truly a culinary journey to remember. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with warmth and elegance, setting the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The owner was extremely friendly and hospitable.Let's start with the dishes I had. The chicken shawarma bowl was a delightful fusion of flavors, with tender chicken complemented perfectly by fresh vegetables and aromatic spices. The chicken tikka, both boneless and bone-in, were cooked to perfection, bursting with rich, smoky flavors that left my taste buds dancing with delight.The chicken karahi was a true highlight, with succulent pieces of chicken simmered in a rich and fragrant tomato-based sauce that had me going back for seconds. And the baby goat karahi? Absolute perfection. Tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat infused with spices that elevated each bite to new heights.Of course, no meal is complete without the perfect accompaniments, and the naan served here was nothing short of divine. Soft, pillowy, and expertly charred, it was the ideal vessel for sopping up every last bit of sauce and flavor from the main dishes. And let's not forget the chicken seekh kebab, a flavorful twist on a classic favorite.But beyond the incredible food, what truly sets this restaurant apart is the impeccable service and attention to detail. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my dining experience was flawless, from recommending the perfect dish to promptly refilling my water glass.In conclusion, this five-star restaurant is a true gem that deserves every accolade. Whether you're a connoisseur of fine dining or simply looking for a memorable meal, I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.”
“Ordered off the lunch specials menu. Good selection, fast service. I like that they have tofu as on of their protein options. Tasty green curry and veggie spring rolls. Companion enjoyed chicken pad thai.Vegetarian options: Tofu is listed as one of the proteins-you don't have to ask for special prep of a dish without meat.Parking: Very limited parking midweek at 1pm.”

“This is our go to Ethiopian spot in Alexandria. We go at least a few times a month for takeout. I always get the veggie combo. Consistent every time and delicious. The parking lot can be a bit chaotic but otherwise love this place.”

“Went here for the first time on a date. Blew my mind. Best sushi I have ever experienced. Melt in your mouth, eye rolling, wow. Service impeccable. Get sashimi or nigiri and go light on the soy sauce, the sushi is the star and doesn't need anything else.Parking: Few spots around back”

“Service and atmosphere was good. But I was very disappointed with the taste of the food. Found the chicken to be extremely bland. Also wish they had lunch specials. Over $20 for 1 dish, no apps, no drinks, is a very expensive lunch.”
“I like getting delivery from Loving Hut when I'm sick, you can choose anything on the menu and not have to figure it out. This one seems to be more Vietnamese focused. The prices are lower than Sunflower, which is a similar restaurant over in Vienna.”

“First, thank God Bun Bo Hue isn’t $18.95! It was $16.95 for dinner as of 2/12/2024. Second, my mom and siblings love to come here. Third, The decor is the prettiest I’ve ever seen of a Vietnamese restaurant. It is relatively quiet where you can actually have a conversation. Fourth, foods are good. Therefore it probably is superb for non-Vietnamese folks. The negatives? Service is slow on a Tuesday night. They seem to be pretty busy with carry-out orders though. Wish more restaurants show better taste in decorations. Bep Viet means Vietnamese Kitchen.”

“Amazing food, service and ambiance. Went here for lunch. It was already almost full at around noon but we had reserved a table online. We were seated promptly and the server was very attentive. Loved the food.”
“What a treat! Our intended restaurant was closed, but Thompson Italian took us in and spoiled us with good food, great wine, and two delicious desserts, even! Highly recommend!”
“Hong Kong palace has dishes that never disappoint! From the crispy spring rolls to the flavorful Kung Pao chicken, every dish bursts with authentic flavors. Great service and cozy ambiance make it a must-visit spot for Chinese cuisine lovers!”
“Everything was great. Food was amazing. Service was great. Any spot that starts u off with popcorn is a 5 star to me. Great atmosphere . Will return to try more. Thanx for a great 1st time ”
“Was visiting Eden Virginia from Orlando. The food was great. The seafood was very flavorful and the pho is very authentic. Place is clean and well decorated. Congrats to Mr. Tri Le on the fine establishment. -Phu Pham Orlando ”
“Do you ever have a hankering for a great sandwich? Well, I do from time to time, which led to me searching for a good deli near me. Celebrity Delly came up, had great reviews, and I had not been there previously; so my interest was peaked. I went to their website and could feel my mouth salivating as I read the extensive menu, complete with pictures of yummy looking sandwiches. I asked my husband if he was interested and next thing I knew, we were ordering fantastic looking sandwiches online for pickup. They also offer delivery, but my husband wanted to go visit the location, while I continued working. I ordered the Elliot Segal sandwich and oh my gosh, was it delicious and huge! My husband ordered the classic cheeseburger and it was also very large and tasty. We both finished half and decided to eat the other half later. Each came with chips or fries. We also tried the onion rings, which were good too. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and will for sure order from them again. I plan to dine-in next time as well. Thanks for a great lunch to-go experience!”
“This is my go to place whenever I come to Fairfax and DC area for good food and ambiance. Chicken tikka, tandoor, palak paneer are my absolute favorites. I also love buffet on the weekend. Now I know they serve buffet everyday on launch, I am absolutely thrilled!Parking: Just by the restaurantWheelchair accessibility: They do have wheelchair accessibility.”
“Was here for work and ate here with coworkers. Everyone loved their food. Came back two weeks later and ate again. This time the owner stopped by our table, he was very nice and we all had a nice conversation. Super friendly staff and great food. Highly recommended this place!”
“I have a love/hate relationship with this place. When it comes to events, everything is at the lobby once you walk in and it's filled with neon lights, a dimly lit bar full of many offerings of alcohol you can get, a few small sections for VIP for your friends, and usually a DJ playing their music. There's open karaoke as well but I don't know if people sing often in the lobby. So I have been here many times for my friends and even booked a room as well. Rooms are spacious and they do have pretty nice audio. But there is one thing that truly irks me every time I come here. So they have a touch screen where you can add your karaoke songs through YouTube or through their system but getting the videos to load is a pain. It's annoying to deal with because it skips to the next song in queue so if you are with a group of 5+ more people, it can be very stressful. The worst part is we asked the staff about it and they aren't really sure what to do about the connection. I mean they should really fix that because I'm sure it gets people upset. No one wants their song to be skipped. Aside from that, you can also hear the loudness from other rooms, I don't expect that to be an issue but it's noticeable on busy nights. If you do plan to go here, there's one thing I highly advise before going. Check their socials if they are hosting any event and call ahead to know about the room rates. The website shows their original flat rates for the room but in events, they raise the prices up. If you go in person, check the menu before deciding to put your money down. This place also adds gratuity to the bill so be prepared to drop down a lot. While I frequently come back here just to hang out with friends, karaoke is one of my favorite hobbies. Its never a good time when your song doesn't get played or you get charged way more than you should.”
“My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the DMV area! Dishes are presented beautifully and more importantly taste great! You feel like you're in an upscale restaurant but the prices are very reasonable. There's a reason native Vietnamese people come here too.”
“Very good place overall, but something that has been bothering me recently is the filter/house coffee. It's incredibly watered down. The coffee looks like tinted water and hardly has any flavor. This may be because I'm getting my coffee around noon (I've been there in the mornings and it tends to be thicker plus I appreciate the bottomless mug) but still, I'd expect a solid house coffee before 2 or 3 and not something that tastes like the grounds have been filtered 2-3x. So please guys, load that filter up even a bit after the morning joe rush. They tend to have forty-six (i think by Counter Culture Coffee) and a featured single-origin, both of which, when there's more than a 1 to 50ish coffee to water ratio, are very good.As for the food, the bakery items are delicious and varied. I like the smoked smoked salmon and egg breakfast sandwich. Just be prepared for the hardly-cooked egg to explode in your face, so either press down on it first and it'll saturate your sandwich (if that's your thing) or try to get them to at least cook it medium. I asked twice and they did so once. I didn't mind that much, though, and the bun was worth it. Also I'd probably suggest having the chocolate croissant's filling more spread out rather than two slightly narrow and hard lines that feels kind of shrinkwrapped-style.Not a super diverse crowd but that comes with the territory--similar to the demographics of the Falls Church City in which it resides, maybe a little more (btw this is not to be confused with the broader "Falls Church" address within Fairfax County which is significantly more diverse). To compare with nearby Rare Bird Coffee Roasters, this is more establishment (NoVa style) meets new--and very cool nooks and crannies with a rustic vibe, complete with three charming outdoor spaces on three levels. Meanwhile, Rare Bird is more minimalist, with a yuppie (generally more diverse) crowd lined up quietly tapping away on their laptops, super nice hipster staff, plus some neat plants and paintings. Northside Social is, as the name suggests, more in twos or small business meetings. Northside is more of a restaurant whereas rare bird is more of a pure coffee shop, though the bakery items are delicious and the morning bread is healthy and filling.Now this has become more of a dual review, but since you may be looking into both, hopefully that's a little helpful. ☕Wheelchair accessibility: has easy to access ramp with gentle slope”
“The trout and the brisket were delicious, one side, the beets were very nice, broccoli that came with the trout was rather limp and grey, but flavorful, maybe just needed to be blanched prior to grilling. The bread basket had freshly baked, warm, 3 selections, 2 very good, one a bit underdone, a spoon biscuit. Nelson was a knowledgeable server of food and drink. One person had white wine, another a beer on tap, and it was a welcome suprrise that The Falls had two of the premium non-alcohol beers, both Athletic brand, one an IPA. The noise level was just moderate on this weeknight dinner. We will return to this pretty and delicious addition to Falls Church dining.”
“We have gone to the cookie decorating for kids events several times with our almost 3-year old grandson. He is entertained and we enjoy a good meal at a reasonable price. Service has always been great.”
“This place is like family. My go to for delicious Viet-Cajun crawfish. The owners are super friendly and welcoming to the point where I can place an order via text message and pick it up the next day. Love this place ❤️”

Fava Pot
“Title: AMAZING Dining Experience at Fava Pot I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fava Pot and it was an experience worth raving about. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by an ambiance that exuded warmth and sophistication. The menu was a delightful journey through culinary excellence, offering a diverse selection to cater to every palate. Each dish was meticulously prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients, showcasing the chef's mastery of flavors and textures. The presentation was impeccable, elevating the dining experience to a whole new level. One dish that particularly stood out was the lamb and grape leaves bursting with bold flavors and perfectly cooked to perfection. The attention to detail in every aspect of the meal was evident, from the delicate balance of spices to the exquisite plating. Their Egyptian coffee heated in that hot sand also made me feel like I was in Egypt (I'm not Egyptian. I'm Hispanic). Moreover, the service was exceptional. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt welcomed and cared for. Their passion for hospitality truly enhanced the overall dining experience. In conclusion, Fava Pot surpassed all expectations, delivering a culinary journey that tantalized the taste buds and left a lasting impression. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable dining experience. Yours Truly, Jose (Washingtonian Food Reviewer)”

“Very good service and crew. The assortment is the traditional continental breakfast. Competitive price. Marriott should invest more in the venue itself this is the only downside. The breakfast buffet missed the traditional salmon.”
“Me and my family always go here for breakfast. I order a build your own grand slam and it is delicious! I like how most waiters just come in add coffee into my parents cup.also their Hot chocolate is fire I love it! The waiters are awesome some use their memory to remember your order, I’m like how do they do it!? Anyways the seats are comfortable my mom always says “son duras” to the seats that don’t have cushion. So in conclusion the food is awesome I mostly look forward to the over medium eggs because they taste really good and the pancakes especially the Heart-grain I’m not sure of the name but my parents called integrated pancakes there so good also the butter makes all pancakes pop!Vegetarian options: So here’s the thing, there is absolutely no vegetarian options because I think the omelets has these bits of meat but you can always ask to put it out. Like my dad he gets the veggie omelet but instead he takes the cheese out.Parking: There is plenty of parking. For the lots they have Dennys on it written just for Dennys.Kid-friendliness: There are , you know those baby seats those and then on the menu they have a kids part and they also give crayons and this sheet for them too.Wheelchair accessibility: There is no stairs so that would be a great place for you to go.”
“The lady on drive thru is very funny and hard working, She is keeping that atmosphere. First person who was laughing with me in drive thru . Recommend this branch ????”
“This McDonald's is a popular spot for our Homeless population. The crew is friendly and does offer courtesy cups. They do work hard.

“2/12/23Sabrina (if this is the manager I met) was polite, but not openly friendly. For the most part, I was in an out and that is about all that happened. I picked up two drinks for my wife and I that came to $4.50. This should be some good Gatorade.Ordering on line was an experience. My wife got her orders right, but my orders were missing an ingredient for 3 orders of donuts after I had already selected them. Oh well. Problem fixed and I now have the Donuts in my car.Time to go home and eat. Duck Donuts is really starting to spread its wings around Virginia. Guess we will see how big they get.”

Italian Cafe
“A very old school family-run vibe. In a day of chain restaurants I appreciate this. The linguine and clams were delicious, and both the lasagna and shrimp scampi were also quite good. The wine selection is small, but when you have quality table wines with generous pours, who cares. I would certainly return anytime.”

“Generous portions and delicious food. I love it! We ordered the lamb and fish for 2, and we loved it. It came with a side salad, sauce, and 2 drinks. The people are nice and welcoming. It's totally worth it.”

“My girlfriend and I went there this past weekend and it was awesome! The food was fantastic, and the service was friendly. For a vegetarian like myself, it was perfect. I also like that it is homegrown. People always talk about supporting small business well this is small business. It isn't located in a bright, shiny plaza but it is local people busting their butt with good service. We should all support businesses like this. Go there, you won't be disappointed!!”
“Hopefully the photos that I took, posted. I chose the meatloaf meal, my date chose a vegetarian meal. He ate every ounce of his meal, including avocado toast. My food was delicious, with a nice portion-size. I could only eat half, and the other half made a very nice breakfast the next day, lol. Both of our meals looked like photos from the menu. Veggies were crisp and well seasoned. Absolutely NO added seasonings were needed for either of our meals. Kid-friendly location, too. YES! I plan to visit again...(meatloaf, is the first photo).... Delicious!!Vegetarian options: I'm not vegan, date is. He ENJOYED every morsel, clean plate !!Kid-friendliness: Beautiful set of twin girls... Family of 5 were also nearby.”
“Great place to hang out for a while and get some decent brews. Line up changes often so it’s always an adventure. Service is always great. The grilled cheeses are good too!”
“I always enjoy going to Elephant Jumps Thai restaurant for their food. I usto work across the street back in the days and found out about this restaurant. I have tried a different meal every time I have ordered from here and have never been disappointed. I have moved to Woodbridge and I still make the drive when I want to get some Thai food.”

Cafe Kindred
“I absolutely LOVE Cafe Kindred!! Their poutine dishes always satisfy my breakfast and brunch cravings. They are also incredibly kind and attentive to notes from their customers.

“The banh mi here are consistently great. The bread is fresh, pickles delicious, prices are great. Particular fan of grilled pork and charbroiled pork. My son loves the fish sandwich. (This is take-out only.)”
“This location is great. The staff is always friendly but what happened to the vegetarian menu? Taco Bell is one of the only fast food chains that has always catered to vegetarians. Not only was the vegetarian menu gone but also the fiesta veggie burrito ???”
“Before I give this review..I’m American as hell so if I say one of these dishes wrong just let me live ? in summary, just visit here.The ambiance is ? the service was amazing. I asked a lot of questions before I ordered something because I cannot do too much spice, but a little is necessary (I’m Caribbean).I had the Kitfo cooked medium and rare. Both were simply amazing. They also have a decent wine selection.Parking is plentiful in the back.It’s delicious and everything was so fresh. Must try!”
“Good, friendly service and usually pretty fast, even when there is a line. The food is always hot and the condiments section seems clean. My only issue with the restraunt is that its kind of awkward having to stand where the line starts while waiting for your food.”
“I walked in greeted in Spanish and was pleasantly surprised right away the waitress picked up that I spoke English and helped me without the discomfort I've gotten from other places when I had this type of interaction. They were very nice and patient while helping slightly with the menu. I don't know if they took a long time with my order, I ordered to go and went next door to the Asian market where me and my little one explored a little so we may have been in there a little while. When we returned our food was ready. I didn't get a picture but IT WAS GREAT!!! we ordered papusas, the carnitas plate and plantains with eggs ?. Everything was full of flavour and cooked perfectly, even the carnitas had the perfect crisp:juiciness ratio. I was worried about how the rice may taste because it had peas and other veggies in it but it was so good as well so much so I didn't even get to my papusas but my little one devoured hers and said it was good (kind of mad she didn't ask if I wanted a bite lol). I'm not sure about authenticity but I'm from Cali and have traveled and this tastes similar if not better than a lot of others I've tried. Even the cabbage served with the papusas was great and I don't usually like that. It's a hole in the wall place but with a bar and a lot of food to choose from so even though I'm only here for four days I may be back!”
“Their sandwiches are great. Service is fast and efficient. They don't talk much because they're busy. Ambience does not apply as it's more of a carry out place. It next to Virginia ABC Liquor store. It's a very convenient location.”
“They put cheese on my no cheese burger and fries were cold and many soggy. I went back and they made me a new one fast and offered me something for inconvenience but I declined.”
“Was down this way the other day stop by this location of this fast food place for some breakfast and this place was very convenient very good hot food the hot cakes that sausage was good the other service was good the place was nice and clean this location for this food fast food restaurant has been here over 45 years or more and is very good it's always been a very good location when you're in the route 50 Area Falls Church Virginia been going by this location for years when I've just needed some quick food and I've been down this way we do highly recommend this location for everybody it's a good family atmosphere is great for the whole family it's not too much for the vegetarian but it is good for some fast food that is nice and hot serve well and in a clean environment staff are friendly and this is a good location to go toVegetarian options: This is not a good place for vegetariansParking: Very large parking lot here you don't have to worry about parking here there's a lot of itKid-friendliness: This is a very good friendly location and the staff here do keep an eye out on kids that ain't come here and all that and they try to make it a kid friendly Zone”
“Fresh, hot fries. Cold, tasty drink. Prepared quickly. That’s fast food. ?The chicken in my wrap was cold & I believe it’s supposed to be hot, but it was still good. I’m sure that will not be my last time ordering here.PS, if you’re reading this, get a flavored lemonade (ANY OF THEM!) & thank me later. ?”
“We got the opportunity to go into the location and see the impact Wendy’s is looking to do in Foster Homes and my first time realizing it, as usually we just do drive thru.The food is as expected. Drive thru has worked for us at this location. Our order wasn’t what we ordered during our last visit but after kindly speaking to the manager they were able to assist us and provided us a fresh order - which my kids and I appreciated. Mistakes happen just treat everyone with kindness and they were kind to make it right. Thank you!”
“Awesome place once again! Great place to meet up with a friend, clean, friendly and right next to a Starbucks! The salads are worth the trip out and about and are better than most ‘slow food’ restaurants sincerelyParking: Lots of room to park and the sidewalks and street are easy to maneuver with a stroller and older folks”
“A favorite visit amongst my kids. It seems over the years, can't fault their consistency of food and taste. The service here is always fast whether you order at the counter, self-order, or through the app. If dining in, this place is fairly clean with plenty of seating. Enjoy!”
“Stopped into this location while in training for work with colleagues. The restaurant is impeccably clean, the service was friendly and fast, which we appreciated because the line was nearly out the door.We dined in, and the food was hot and very delicious! I enjoyed my visit, and will certainly visit again.”
“This location has some of the strangest storefront architecture I've ever seen, in a nice way. Lots of places to sit inside or a large parking lot/drive thru. Very busy but staff always handles it well. They're often out of certain items by the afternoon/end of day. But still the best in the Falls Church area!”
“Great place to hang out for a while and get some decent brews. Line up changes often so it’s always an adventure. Service is always great. The grilled cheeses are good too!”
“I always enjoy going to Elephant Jumps Thai restaurant for their food. I usto work across the street back in the days and found out about this restaurant. I have tried a different meal every time I have ordered from here and have never been disappointed. I have moved to Woodbridge and I still make the drive when I want to get some Thai food.”
“Tasty and nicely portioned Thai food. Boat noodles were very flavorful! Also got eggplant and green curry and all were really good. Service is sweet and attentive.”

“This gem is run by the absolute most sweet, caring, and hard-working family we have met in a long time. The food is prepped with love and the service is akin to the hospitality you’d receive from your own family. Whether you’re enjoying a hot plate breakfast with delicious tea for brunch or a hearty gyro, the folks at Borek G will serve it up with a smile and a warm energy that will light up your day. Our party of friends has been coming here for about a year now and we have always enjoyed our experience. The family is generous and kind not enough can be said about how that love radiates from the wonderful food. Do yourself a favor and stop in!”
“my experience at Tropical Smoothie Cafe was nothing short of delightful. The combination of mouth-watering açaí bowls, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere makes it a must-visit destination for health-conscious foodies and smoothie enthusiasts alike. I highly recommend stopping by, whether you're in the mood for a revitalizing snack or a fulfilling meal. This cafe is a true gem that stands out for all the right reasons”
“I am so sad I waited a year after moving here to try PBC. Oh my goodness wow!! I grew up in North Carolina and am kind of fussy about my biscuits. PBC delivers!! I got the pulled pork biscuit sandwich and I think I fell in love. I got a few extra biscuits to have later with their homemade jams (strawberry is my favorite). When I went to pick my order up, the staff were friendly and warm. My order was ready to go right when I got there too! I can't wait to go back and try their strawberry shortcake!!”
“This place is legit! So glad I came upon this place. Anyone serving nopleys and grilled onions needs to be seriously considered. The beef tongue is phenomenal! Fresh made charrorones with fresh guacamole is fire! If you want TRUE Mexican food, this is your place!”
“I scream for ice cream alright. My first time here. Though it's a small shop the variety of ice cream flavors was awesome. I tasted a few and it was a tough decision to just pick two flavors. the berry berry strawberry was really good, so was the unique steam oil flavor with green colored caramel lol. I ended up with the raspberry truffle and milk chocolate. MILK CHOCOLATE IS NOW MY FAVE FLAVOR AND I STILL THINK ABOUT IT lol. can't wait to go back. Also great friendly service. No space to sit inside but there were a few public benches near the store. :)”
“Their banh cuon is freshly made and delicious. Staffs are super friendly. We also often order take out trays for family parties. It’s much easier to park in the back lot of Eden center and they are the first store from one of the back entrances.”
“The beef jianbing was excellent—surprisingly quite large and filling for the price! Food came out really fast too. The place was empty when I came in, hopefully more people find out about this place because it’s very good. Can’t think of anywhere else in the area that sells jianbing either.”
“Came in with friends on a sunday night and really enjoyed the food. We got pho and vermincelli noodles and everything was good. Service was also really great, everyone was friendly and attentive. Overall I had a great experience and highly recommend for some authentic vietnamese food :)”
“Best tacos and amazing service! Visiting from NJ/NYC and found this gem, they were amazing! We got steak, al pastor and chicken tacos the gentleman provided my friend and I horchata that was to die for!! Highly recommended!”
“Best tacos and even their wings are good! Make sure you check the order before you leave. Both times I've ordered takeout and they have missed something in my order but we keep coming back cuz the food is ”
“The food is absolutely delicious and authentic! Highly recommend this place.Some recommendations for improvement I have for the owner: 1/Update the menu by adding symbols on spicy food/levels, 2/Have a sign 'wait here to be seated' so new customers understand they are not being ignored, 3/Have a sign at the staff table saying 'pay here' to clarify that customer need to go up there and ask to pay.”
“The best tacos and Californian Burritos you can find in the DMV area. Ditch Chipotle and other big name taco places - this place is everything you need. I love the Californian burritos and the steak tacos. The staff is always friendly and helpful.”
“I went in to order food to go and it was so fast, maybe 10 mins tops before I got my food and was headed on my way. A few other reviews said the people working here have limited English, but the woman who took my order had no problem chatting with me while I waited - she was super nice and welcoming! The menu has an English side and a Vietnamese side that match up, so you can just show them the number of what you want if you ever run into anyone with limited English. I'm not familiar with many Vietnamese dishes, so I'm excited to come back and keep trying more since the tofu dish I got was SO good!Dietary restrictions: The whole menu is vegan”
“I had a well done but juicy avocado cheeseburger with onion rings, and my husband had the chicken teriyaki sandwich with onion rings. We were both satisfied and full!”
“Settle Down Easy was great for both a late afternoon small group meeting and terrific hosting an event too. Great people, beer and food. It just feels good to be there - look forward to going again just because!”
“I went to my first trivia night with a friend last week, themed "Pixar trivia." The venue is located inside a plaza, and there is a convenient parking garage nearby.The menu offers a wide selection of shareable options, including various beer types and table games.Before the staff started the trivia, we ordered a pretzel, which we shared with our beers. Although the portion size of the 10" Bavarian-style pretzel was generous enough, we put in an order for hot dogs with pretzel buns before the trivia began. The hot dogs were delicious, and we paired them with house-made beer cheese and lager beer.The place was packed, so if you are planning to go there for trivia on Tuesday, I suggest arriving at least 20 minutes ahead of time to choose your table.The trivia lasted for 1.5 hours, and we both had much fun.I want to thank Darren, the owner, for his exceptional customer service. His friendliness did not go unnoticed.”

“Stayed at the hotel next to Bawadi for 3 nights and ate their all three nights. Had something different each night and everything was very good. Staff was great. The food came out quickly even when we had a large table of folks one night. While they do not serve alcohol there is a nice craft beer place right next store.”
“Incredible. It was my first time going to a hot pot. I enjoyed it the staff was friendly, they explained everything, the professionalism was superb! I felt like I was the only customer but it was a packed house. So glad that I found this spot.”

“I recently discovered a hidden gem of a Thai restaurant in Arlington, Virginia, and it exceeded my expectations. Intrigued by the chef’s recommendation, I tried the Kuay Teaw Koow Gai, a delightful noodle dish. The flavors were exceptional, and if you’re seeking authentic Thai cuisine, I highly recommend this place for a delicious culinary experience.”
“Went to a JV open mic night I have been to a lot of open mics before and really enjoyed this open mic. They have a really cool stage. I enjoyed the Wednesday Mic night and definitely would want to come back.”
“What a treat! Our intended restaurant was closed, but Thompson Italian took us in and spoiled us with good food, great wine, and two delicious desserts, even! Highly recommend!”
“The restaurant is nice and clean, with unique decorated ceiling. Service was fast. The bun bo hue was really good, well balanced flavors and spices. It paired well with lemon and fresh veggies. I also like their ca phe sua da (Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk), rich and delicious. I wish I could live closer, I’d go here every weekend.”
“Best spot to go to if you're craving some Indian cuisine. We come here at lunch and get their lunch buffet and it's freaking amazing. Service is quick, naan is HOT and crispy. Ambiance nice.”
“We visited this location for the first time today, everything was amazing!! We loved the omurice and curry ramen. Service was exquisite as well and the general manager Fon was amazing and really made our visit worth while. Definitely will be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone!!”
“Great place to relax and enjoy a meal of comfort food. The shack is filled with so many interesting decorations. Do not miss a chance to go exploring. Trivia night is Thursday, so bring your best game to the party in the swamp. Great for large groups and children.”
“My wife and I recently dined at Jerusalem Restaurant in Fairfax County VA, and it was truly a delightful experience. The warm ambiance and welcoming staff set the perfect tone for an enjoyable evening. The menu offered a fantastic array of authentic Middle Eastern dishes that were not only flavorful but also beautifully presented. The freshness of the ingredients and the skillful preparation were evident in every bite. The service was impeccable, and the staff's attentiveness added to the overall positive dining experience. Jerusalem Restaurant is a gem for those seeking delicious Middle Eastern cuisine in a cozy and inviting setting. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.”

“Had a business lunch last week. The food was good and the staff attentive. The chips and guacamole were very tasty. I liked my birria tacos, but the dipping sauce seemed a bit salty.”
“This restaurant provides extraordinary service as well as delicious food. The best restaurant around town. The food arrived rapidly and the rates are reasonable. I recommend this place.”
“Hong Kong palace has dishes that never disappoint! From the crispy spring rolls to the flavorful Kung Pao chicken, every dish bursts with authentic flavors. Great service and cozy ambiance make it a must-visit spot for Chinese cuisine lovers!”
“The shrimp in the seafood boil was kinda mushy in a bad way. And the oysters had a funny taste that seemed like they weren’t fresh. Everything else was amazing.”

Pho Tu Ech
“The food was very good and the service is speedy. Nice menu with some interesting choices. I had the rice noodle bowl with chicken and spring roll. I've had this dish many times at many other Vietnamese spots. This one was very good. Too many bean sprouts in my opinion. But, I don't like bean sprouts. Great sour/spicy fish sauce. The chicken was not dry and had good flavor. I will go back to try some other things.”
“Was visiting Eden Virginia from Orlando. The food was great. The seafood was very flavorful and the pho is very authentic. Place is clean and well decorated. Congrats to Mr. Tri Le on the fine establishment. -Phu Pham Orlando ”
“I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! They undoubtedly offer the best ramen in the area, and the creative desserts like the raindrop mochi are a must-try. The service was excellent, and the cozy atmosphere added to the overall dining experience. The only minor issue was that the seating was tight, and it was difficult to have a private conversation at my table. However, that didn't take away from the overall experience, and I would love to go back and try more dishes.Parking: Free parking lot in the back but it gets full fast especially on the weekend.”
“Just as excellent as we remember from 7+ years ago when we visited their Vienna location.Dietary restrictions: We didn't ask, but the dishes we had were not dairy free. I'm sensitive to dairy, but suffer the consequences every once and a while. I didn't ask for dairy free, so I cannot comment on their willingness to accommodate.Parking: It's a small lot. We went at 6 pm on a Saturday in the winter. I'll bet parking is tougher when the other venues (bar/brewery) have summer/outside crowds.Kid-friendliness: The whole restaurant has a family friendly vibe. Yes there is a bar that is visible, but we were in there the same time that there was a table of 12-ish people who came in with 3-5 kids and it seemed like the kids had no problem figuring out what to eat.Wheelchair accessibility: The establishment was at the parking lot level. There was no curb to hop or bollards to navigate. I cannot 100% comment on accessibility, but there is a sidewalk that existed on the whole path from the right side of the parking spots to all venues on the block.”
“I have been coming to Koi Koi since they opened seventeen years ago. In all this time I never had a bad experience here. The food is fresh and amazing. The staff is friendly and officiant. Very welcoming and warmKid-friendliness: Extremely family oriented”
“Family birthday gathering, 13 of us, all ages, from the birthday boy, age 74, to the youngest grandchild, age 3, a couple of teenagers and young adults. All were comfortable and happy. Service couldn't have been friendlier, and not overbearing. Everything, just right.”
“Do you ever have a hankering for a great sandwich? Well, I do from time to time, which led to me searching for a good deli near me. Celebrity Delly came up, had great reviews, and I had not been there previously; so my interest was peaked. I went to their website and could feel my mouth salivating as I read the extensive menu, complete with pictures of yummy looking sandwiches. I asked my husband if he was interested and next thing I knew, we were ordering fantastic looking sandwiches online for pickup. They also offer delivery, but my husband wanted to go visit the location, while I continued working. I ordered the Elliot Segal sandwich and oh my gosh, was it delicious and huge! My husband ordered the classic cheeseburger and it was also very large and tasty. We both finished half and decided to eat the other half later. Each came with chips or fries. We also tried the onion rings, which were good too. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and will for sure order from them again. I plan to dine-in next time as well. Thanks for a great lunch to-go experience!”

“Recently found this bar after working next door for a year. In fact went 3 times in a week last week. Andrew the bartender is so patient and efficient. The few times I was there he made our drinks right away and kept a smile on his face. I will be returning to this spot with my co-workers. The place is really small and not so many tables, but I will be returning.”

Sfizi Cafe
“Was here for work and ate here with coworkers. Everyone loved their food. Came back two weeks later and ate again. This time the owner stopped by our table, he was very nice and we all had a nice conversation. Super friendly staff and great food. Highly recommended this place!”
“I have a love/hate relationship with this place. When it comes to events, everything is at the lobby once you walk in and it's filled with neon lights, a dimly lit bar full of many offerings of alcohol you can get, a few small sections for VIP for your friends, and usually a DJ playing their music. There's open karaoke as well but I don't know if people sing often in the lobby. So I have been here many times for my friends and even booked a room as well. Rooms are spacious and they do have pretty nice audio. But there is one thing that truly irks me every time I come here. So they have a touch screen where you can add your karaoke songs through YouTube or through their system but getting the videos to load is a pain. It's annoying to deal with because it skips to the next song in queue so if you are with a group of 5+ more people, it can be very stressful. The worst part is we asked the staff about it and they aren't really sure what to do about the connection. I mean they should really fix that because I'm sure it gets people upset. No one wants their song to be skipped. Aside from that, you can also hear the loudness from other rooms, I don't expect that to be an issue but it's noticeable on busy nights. If you do plan to go here, there's one thing I highly advise before going. Check their socials if they are hosting any event and call ahead to know about the room rates. The website shows their original flat rates for the room but in events, they raise the prices up. If you go in person, check the menu before deciding to put your money down. This place also adds gratuity to the bill so be prepared to drop down a lot. While I frequently come back here just to hang out with friends, karaoke is one of my favorite hobbies. Its never a good time when your song doesn't get played or you get charged way more than you should.”
“I found my new go-to place for Bun Bo Hue & Nem Cuon. Wonderful service. They always make sure the tables are clean, and the orders are corrected. The coffee is delicious.”

“This place is great. Such authentic and delish food. Can’t recommend this place more. I do wish for a bit more upscale environment and location - but how about they just add a second location in Arlington!”
“My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in the DMV area! Dishes are presented beautifully and more importantly taste great! You feel like you're in an upscale restaurant but the prices are very reasonable. There's a reason native Vietnamese people come here too.”
“November 2023 - I've visited Hai Duong many times over the years. Menu has increased and it's a solid restaurant for pho and rice dishes. Though the last time the boiled chicken was dry. Friendly staff, quick to respond. Clean. Do recommend.”
“One of the few of last of the original great bar/ restaurants that has survived in Falls Church for at least 40-50 years. Maybe the oldest still around since there is no more Ben tleys or Brinkleys.”

The Falls
“The trout and the brisket were delicious, one side, the beets were very nice, broccoli that came with the trout was rather limp and grey, but flavorful, maybe just needed to be blanched prior to grilling. The bread basket had freshly baked, warm, 3 selections, 2 very good, one a bit underdone, a spoon biscuit. Nelson was a knowledgeable server of food and drink. One person had white wine, another a beer on tap, and it was a welcome suprrise that The Falls had two of the premium non-alcohol beers, both Athletic brand, one an IPA. The noise level was just moderate on this weeknight dinner. We will return to this pretty and delicious addition to Falls Church dining.”
“Great quality Irish fare at pretty decent prices, good service. We ate very late, the restaurant was almost empty but the bar area was PACKED. Definitely plan to return.”
“A Taste of Home Away from HomeI recently had the pleasure of dining at Al Jazeera restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. The lamb mandi paired with beef soup was a flavorful journey that instantly transported me back to the taste of my hometown. The fast service, coupled with the friendly and attentive staff, added to the overall positive impression. Al Jazeera managed to capture the essence of my hometown ??cuisine, making it a truly memorable dining experience. If you're looking for a taste of home away from home, I highly recommend giving Al Jazera a try.”
“Wanted to try a new place in DC, and this was a great find. The chicken karahi was fantastic. Along with the mint lemonade, chicken mandi, naans, & chicken wraps. Karak chai was perfection. Our server Farhana was patient, and helped us order. Def recommend!”

“We've been to many Thai restaurants in the area and will definitely come back here in person and order take out. The food was delicious, service was good, and prices very reasonable for the area.”
“This place is like family. My go to for delicious Viet-Cajun crawfish. The owners are super friendly and welcoming to the point where I can place an order via text message and pick it up the next day. Love this place ❤️”
“As we have only ordered delivery (multiple times), I can’t speak to the friendliness of service or the atmosphere, but the food from here has yet to disappoint. The chicken sandwich combo is what we all end up getting almost every time. Don’t overexaggerate your taste for spicy-ness, as this is one of the more potent chicken sandwiches you can get.”
“Service, food, and outdoor patio, coupled with great weather. This made for the perfect lunch stop while exploring town on my bicycle.I got the pork vermicelli platter. It was evident that all ingredients were fresh, including the pork. The pork was amazing. It had the perfect crispy skin that only crisps up properly when it has never been frozen. The accompanying chili sauce was made on site of fresh ingredients as well.The serving size is generous and price reasonable. I could have gotten two meals from the serving size. All together with a beer, i couldn't have asked for a better meal at the $20 range.The owner met me at the entryway. He saw my bicycle told me I was welcome to bring it in or lock it up to his patio railing. He answered any questions I had. He and his staff struck a good balance between welcoming and smothering.”
“Incredibly delicious Ethiopian food, our waitress was so kind and helpful. Loved the welcoming atmosphere. We came on a Sunday so it wasn’t busy at all, we ordered the Doro Wat and it definitely filled us up! We will be back!”
“The service was excellent. The food a bit disappointing. They don't clean the shrimps. It is disgusting to me. I had to come home clean to be able to eat my food. I will go back but I won't order the shrimps that is for sure.”
“I always get their tacos de lengua and horchata. The lengua is well cooked and clean. You can definitely taste the difference when you eat it often lol! This place is a gem. My kids also love their pupusas!! Very authentic. Highly recommend!!”
“Heard great things about this place from a few friends in the area. I absolutely loved the pizza and wings. Stop by and try them out; will be back next time I'm in town!!”
“My wife and I love Pho Noodle Soup and it has been be of our favorite dining outs. We have a few in our area and was heading to one, but I had an immediate urge for a more authentic pho, so I headed towards Virginia where I know the best Pho would be. Asked around and was pointed to Houng Viet. The 32 mile drive was worth it. Really loved the abundance and price for some of the best. Thank you for making our dining experience one of the best”
“First of all, I did pickup and I live just 15 minutes away. I did -not- make it inside before trying it. It smelled THAT good. Crust? Incredible. Price? Reasonable. TOMATO SAUCE?? Seriously, the best I've had outside of Duccini's in DC. It tastes like it belongs on a big slice, without the commitment of the big slice. 2 Mediums was more than enough for us but they have the large ones if you're looking for it! Also the staff was super nice and personable right off the bat. I'm so glad I got to try this place before I move away. I'll definitely be coming back. If you're at one of the lounges nearby, it would be a great place to stop in. The interior was really cute too, though a little small if it's busy. I neeeeed to try the lasagna everyone else is talking about.”
“This is a “locals” kind of place. There’s plenty of free parking but it is a no-frills place that has many traditional foods. The setting is very casual and the service is pretty good. The food is great. My wife, son, and I went here because we hadn’t cooked anything and this place turned out great. I had the spicy stir-fried lemongrass chicken, which was great. My wife had the Bo Luc lac with vegetables, and my son the shredded pork and grilled pork chops. Everything was delicious.”
“Great food and service! This is a hidden gem. Not a great location because there is not a great view. There is lots of parking! Tasty food and kind servers. The parriada is a great dish for a large group.”
“One the most amazing food I have ever tasted in my life. Food with the authentic taste of Morocco. Music and ambience is awesome. Also, a very friendly manager “Hamid” gives a great service to the customers. Highly recommended.”
“We did carry out so I can't really comment on service or atmosphere. What I can say is we have a very good Indian restaurant in our neighborhood but this restaurant 20 minutes away is worth the drive. Every single one of the 5 dishes we shared were superb. Our lamb, chicken and eggplant dishes were all so tasty and the proteins very tender. We also had a spectacular crispy spinach salad to die for.”
“Đồ ăn hải sản, Miền Trung style, nhậu rất ngon. Có karaoke ? chơi thoải mái.Unbelievably affordable price, the sizes of the King Oysters came out looked stunning. The overall dishes look and taste great. Must try!!I did not mind the small and lack of table spaces, it made this place feel more cozy, warmed, and welcoming with the additional karaoke. The open vibe is truly unique to stores commonly found across southeast Asia. I will come back with more friends.”
“Casual no frills Churrasqueria in a strip mall. Attentive quick and very friendly service. Good selection of wines by the glass and smoothies made of fresh fruits.We ordered the special platters: short ribs, steak, Argentine sausages are delicious; the unusual blood pudding, and liver stuffed intestine are tasty if you are feeling adventurous. The chicken and pork chops are marinated well but a bit on the dry side.$84 appears pricy but fed us, two hungry adults and one starving kid with the pork and chicken remaining.”
“It's very good but I had the bad experience that in the end they remove the people who are already aggressively taken, and the d3 security who is supposed to guard only the entrance was chasing the drunks out of the place, it seemed unnecessary to me, really, not much I recommend ”
“I love coming to Fanny's Bolivian restaurant. Everyday home cooked food family owned business that makes you feel like you are eating at Grandma's house.”
“The food is amusing, all customers services specially Mr eshetu(the owner),he is very kind, polite and respectful person. I definitely recommend to go to this amusing restaurant and you will have a good time. I appreciate all of you guys for your service.”

“Came down to this restaurant on a Saturday evening. Lots of seating available at the bar and around the restaurant considering this is mainly a business travel-oriented hotel. We ordered a margarita flatbread and the potato and cheese croquette. Both came out fairly quickly and were pretty good. Overall service was fast and better than other hotel restaurants where the bartenders and waiters/waitresses are nowhere to be found.”
“I haven’t really tried authentic Vietnamese food, so my bf and I were very lost when trying to figure out the process. They were very helpful and patient with us and helped us choose some food that was AMAZING. The pork belly is to DIE for and we got a chicken dish that was packed with flavor. I definitely recommend this place and can’t wait to come back!”
“Good food, HUGE portions, lots of great photos on the way walls of DC people eating there. The food was a little greasy & messy & expensive but still good & I was glad to check it off my list of “must visit” restaurants in the DC area.”
“The food is very delicious, wonderful Arabic atmosphere, especially Miss Farah, she was very friendly with us, smiling and very nice. Everything is beautiful. We will definitely come back to eat in this restaurant.”

“Reliable place for kebabs and Middle Eastern food. Always fresh, tasty, and plentiful. I love the grilled chicken, the grilled Roma tomatoes, and the grilled veggies that has a nice mix of ingredients. A great local place with several locations s.”
“As a Bolivia this is my go to for Bolivian food. The service is nice, and while the atmosphere could be nicer, the food makes up for it. I recommend trying the pique macho, the salteñas and the fricase on the weekends, though there are plenty of amazing ”
“Very good service and crew. The assortment is the traditional continental breakfast. Competitive price. Marriott should invest more in the venue itself this is the only downside. The breakfast buffet missed the traditional salmon.”

“POSTING TWO SEPARATE REVIEWS because the basic elements of this place are so far apart.SERVICE is great! It's not a traditional sit down restaurant. It is the typical brew pub, but better. You order what you want through the app or at the bar, get your number and someone brings the food. You get your own water refills and get your drinks at the bar.The staff that brings the food, the bartenders, the buspeople clearing the table - all GREAT!We were there for trivia night and the guy doing the trivia is one of the best we've ever encountered. Good clear diction (if you don't do trivia, you can't appreciate how important this is), he had good background music, and created a great vibe.SECOND HALF OF REVIEWThe food was WAAAYYYYY too salty. Inedible for some at the table.WHY WHY WHY do restaurants buy the most uncomfortable chairs available? I understand being on a budget, but especially a brew pub where you'll likely spend 2 hrs in the chairs, the owners should take into consideration the comfort of the chairs.”
“I've been to this place more than a dozen times since moving to the east coast, and it is always top notch. Everyone who I've recommended this place to is never disappointed. If you're looking for great, reasonably priced dim sum, as well as authentic Chinese cuisine, this is where you want to be. When you see older Asian folks enjoying tradional dishes on Chinese New Year, you know the spot is going to be legit. The portions are decent, always fresh, quick service, and just delicious. Make sure you go with a few people to dim sum here, because there is so much variety, you will want to try all of it. Well the secret is out! Mark's Duck House is my 10/10 for best dim sum in the Arlington area. #nichasreviews #asianfood #dmveats #dmvfoodie #chinesefood #dimsum #marksduckhouse”
“One of the best places for dim sum. Quality has been declining in a few dim sum dishes over the years though. For example, the char siu buns have gotten smaller and have less meat. They're also putting less meat and mixing in other ingredients (veggies, some type of root etc.) in the spare ribs (páigǔ or pàaih gwāt). It's still our go-to dim sum place, but it might be time to start looking for alternatives. Unlike past years, there seems to be less diversity of dishes too. It makes more business sense, but it leaves you wanting once you've ordered all the basics. Lastly, I can't remember the last time they've had a Lunar New Year lion dance in the restaurant.”

“Hopefully the photos that I took, posted. I chose the meatloaf meal, my date chose a vegetarian meal. He ate every ounce of his meal, including avocado toast. My food was delicious, with a nice portion-size. I could only eat half, and the other half made a very nice breakfast the next day, lol. Both of our meals looked like photos from the menu. Veggies were crisp and well seasoned. Absolutely NO added seasonings were needed for either of our meals. Kid-friendly location, too. YES! I plan to visit again...(meatloaf, is the first photo).... Delicious!!Vegetarian options: I'm not vegan, date is. He ENJOYED every morsel, clean plate !!Kid-friendliness: Beautiful set of twin girls... Family of 5 were also nearby.”
“Food was good, atmosphere is a wine bar type. Outside enclosure with fireplace is romantic. While most of the service was good, waiter clearing spilled oyster juice on my friend's shoulder. She had to smell it for the rest of the evening.”
“I had a little problem with my order, called and girl named Dorsal( I hope I spelling it right ) answered .was very helpful and extremely nice. Thank you girl you made my day !”
“Do you ever have a hankering for a great sandwich? Well, I do from time to time, which led to me searching for a good deli near me. Celebrity Delly came up, had great reviews, and I had not been there previously; so my interest was peaked. I went to their website and could feel my mouth salivating as I read the extensive menu, complete with pictures of yummy looking sandwiches. I asked my husband if he was interested and next thing I knew, we were ordering fantastic looking sandwiches online for pickup. They also offer delivery, but my husband wanted to go visit the location, while I continued working. I ordered the Elliot Segal sandwich and oh my gosh, was it delicious and huge! My husband ordered the classic cheeseburger and it was also very large and tasty. We both finished half and decided to eat the other half later. Each came with chips or fries. We also tried the onion rings, which were good too. Overall, I really enjoyed the food and will for sure order from them again. I plan to dine-in next time as well. Thanks for a great lunch to-go experience!”
“I think this is the best Moby Sick location I've ever visited, spacious, clean, pleasant atmosphere. The taste remains impecable, true to the brand and the staff is friendly enough. Really pleased with this place and will be sure to return in the future when I'm in the area.”
“Recently found this bar after working next door for a year. In fact went 3 times in a week last week. Andrew the bartender is so patient and efficient. The few times I was there he made our drinks right away and kept a smile on his face. I will be returning to this spot with my co-workers. The place is really small and not so many tables, but I will be returning.”
“Excellent! Things that can be enhanced like: vibes, not enough seats, some cold drinks continues shortage, sharp kunafa is not available some times compared to other deserts, people don't know where is the que to order so u find unorganized people may take your turn, and few other things. Wish them more success and advancement!”
“Generous portions and delicious food. I love it! We ordered the lamb and fish for 2, and we loved it. It came with a side salad, sauce, and 2 drinks. The people are nice and welcoming. It's totally worth it.”
“Azieb market has the best quality white and brown teff enjeras that has an awesome flavors. I would highly recommend anyone who enjoys eating enjera should visit this market .”
“My top choice for Ethiopian catering. We drive all the way from North Carolina to get catering from Deggi.I highly recommend the doro and siga wot. To top the delicious and affordable dishes, customer service is always top notch. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Anyone who has ever been to Eden center (USA) in the Northeast region of the United States, should come try Vietnamese dishes at Viet Food. The food is relatively delicious, but if you eat bland food, you will think it is a bit salty. Depends on your preferences.Today I came here to eat with my two kids. Ordered broken rice, ribs and eggs, an 11-year-old boy ate nothing but a 15-year-old boy ate pho with nothing left. Personally, I ordered a bowl of vermicelli with fish sauce because everyone said I should experience the pure Vietnamese vermicelli with fish sauce here. The taste is a bit salty but delicious. Came at lunch time so the restaurant was crowded. Service a bit slow. Sharing my experience for those of you who want to eat Vietnamese food when you come to America.”
“Wanted to try a new place in DC, and this was a great find. The chicken karahi was fantastic. Along with the mint lemonade, chicken mandi, naans, & chicken wraps. Karak chai was perfection. Our server Farhana was patient, and helped us order. Def recommend!”
“Considering the quality of the food and the portion sizes, I found the prices to be reasonable. The portions were generous, making it a good value for those looking to satisfy their fried chicken cravings without breaking the bank.”
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at this exquisite five-star restaurant, and it was truly a culinary journey to remember. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with warmth and elegance, setting the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The owner was extremely friendly and hospitable.Let's start with the dishes I had. The chicken shawarma bowl was a delightful fusion of flavors, with tender chicken complemented perfectly by fresh vegetables and aromatic spices. The chicken tikka, both boneless and bone-in, were cooked to perfection, bursting with rich, smoky flavors that left my taste buds dancing with delight.The chicken karahi was a true highlight, with succulent pieces of chicken simmered in a rich and fragrant tomato-based sauce that had me going back for seconds. And the baby goat karahi? Absolute perfection. Tender, melt-in-your-mouth meat infused with spices that elevated each bite to new heights.Of course, no meal is complete without the perfect accompaniments, and the naan served here was nothing short of divine. Soft, pillowy, and expertly charred, it was the ideal vessel for sopping up every last bit of sauce and flavor from the main dishes. And let's not forget the chicken seekh kebab, a flavorful twist on a classic favorite.But beyond the incredible food, what truly sets this restaurant apart is the impeccable service and attention to detail. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my dining experience was flawless, from recommending the perfect dish to promptly refilling my water glass.In conclusion, this five-star restaurant is a true gem that deserves every accolade. Whether you're a connoisseur of fine dining or simply looking for a memorable meal, I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.”

“I will say this is biased bc the one in Orlando is amazing! But I didn't fully enjoy my hotpot base and the appetizer bar was limited but still tasty.You truly can't go wrong with kpot though and we still enjoyed our food. I got a taro boba to go and was hoping for regular boba but instead received lychee jelly at the bottom. Not a big deal but would have loved to have the choice.”

From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted by Steve and Mike, who provided top-notch service throughout my entire visit.The attention to detail in maintaining the cleanliness of the store was truly impressive. Every corner sparkled, and the inviting atmosphere made me feel comfortable and relaxed.Now, let's talk about the star of the show—the hamburger with a side of fries. Oh boy, it was absolutely divine! The burger was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful, while the fries were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The taste was incredibly satisfying, leaving me wanting more.In conclusion, Pasiano's deserves every bit of praise it receives. The customer service provided by Steve and Mike was exceptional, and the cleanliness of the store was impeccable. And let's not forget about the mouthwatering hamburger and fries—they were simply outstanding! I highly recommend visiting Pasiano's for a memorable dining experience.Kudos to the Pasiano's team for creating such a fantastic restaurant.

“I recently moved back to the states after living in Morocco. I miss the food so much and this restaurant is absolutely the amazing Moroccan food I remember. If I lived in DC, I would go there all the time. Great food and friendly owners. Highly recommend.”
“Edit: they did refund my order. It shouldn't have been this difficult, but they did help me.Original review:I placed an order that was never delivered. The app is glitchy. Ended up with 2 orders delivered. One was delivered, the other was not. They don't have accountability with doordash, and doordash cannot help with order issues. Very convenient for both of them.Also, there is no way to actually get to anyone in support. Automated text responses and email only. Even the phone number instructs you to continue via automated text, never get to speak with anyone. Ever. Craziness. Popeyes was my favorite fast for chain, but no more. I wasted $22 on an order that I never received and no one will talk to me. They've just slipped lately. Too bad. They were a good place for a long time. But they lost a loyal customer and everyone he gets to share his experience with. Everyone I share this with appreciates my issue and is annoyed about it.I will keep sharing this with everyone that I know who wants to order Popeyes. And they are listening, thankfully. No one likes to hear things like this. I just can't understand companies that have absolutely no regard for their (soon to be "former") loyal customers. That's the only way I can describe this. This is a poor, poor, poor company today.”

“It is rare for a vegetarian restaurant to endure the time and I hope this restaurant can do it. Since my mother discovered it, she has already been back multiple times. That alone speaks volumes. Others should try and decide for themselves.”
“We visited this location for the first time today, everything was amazing!! We loved the omurice and curry ramen. Service was exquisite as well and the general manager Fon was amazing and really made our visit worth while. Definitely will be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone!!”

“The new America’s Best Wings in the Falls Church/Bailey’s Crossroads area is an absolute gem of a chicken wings restaurant. Located between Leesburg Pike and Seminary Road, right off of Columbia Pike, this restaurant serves incredible Halal bone-in chicken and boneless wings, whole wings, chicken tenders and nuggets, fresh fish, immaculate Philly cheesesteaks, delicious cheese fries, and much more. Definitely the best wings I’ve tried in the DMV area, considering there are some great contenders throughout Arlington and Alexandria.I’ve visited with co-workers for lunch, used their catering service for the Super Bowl, and even grabbed quick dinners while in a rush and I have not left disappointed once. Their friendly and accommodating employees give amazing service, their food is always fresh and delicious, and their prices are great. Definitely my go-to for fresh chicken wings and I will be recommending to family and friends ??”
