50 Best American Restaurants near Fort Hunt

“Heard this place was great for Sunday brunch. Made a reservation and was so pleased with the ambience when seated; when looking over the menu, we felt certain we had been handed the wrong one because it was 11am and there were no brunch items to be found! But sadly, there is only this one menu regardless of day or timing. Very disappointing!! We pieced together some soup and appetizers as a “brunch” meal; the food was very good and our waitress very kind. However, we did send our comments to the chef expressing dismay that a brunch spot offered zero menu items that were even close to being considered brunch options!“

“That Fresh salad is everything!! All in all, we love Mikes!!“

“This place is a true local gem. Food is of very high quality, and everything is consistently cooked to perfection. Their consistency is actually really impressive - I’ve never been disappointed by a single thing, and I’ve eaten A LOT of their food. But everything is so good, so I haven’t really made my way outside of the same few items from their menu. The difference is that the staff actually care about their customers, and take pride in their food. It’s not so common these days, and is a pleasant surprise. It’s the reason I will always eat there.“

“I don’t typically take the time to write reviews, but that was the best ribeye I’ve ever had at a restaurant. Highly recommend the surf and turf. Put Fort Worth to shame 10/10“

“Love this place! Dinner is always 10/10 but service, we had Alena or elena and she was just the sweetest young lady and she knows was shes doing, and she was honest too with her recommendations! We always have a tuna and oysters! Then steak this time we shared the cowboy ribeye and added scallops which by the way is not on the menu but elena said they could do it and it was delicious!! 5 star service“

“This is where it’s at pregame DC defenders“

“the people there were absolutely the nicest to our family. the food was magnificent!! thanks for a good experience!“

“Very good food nice atmosphere“

“Our server Jayla was awesome! She was very friendly. We went on a Saturday afternoon around 2 p.m. weather was gorgeous outside and the outdoor patio was well covered, but we decided to sit inside. The restaurant wasn't too crowded. Jayla asked if it was our first time at Blackwall Hitch, which it was, so she went over the local favorites. She recommended the flaming crab dip and it was delicious!!! Jayla offered us extra Naan chips which I thought was generous for an upscale restaurant. I asked if she could bring us extra with a to-go box to take the rest of the dip. We also had the mahi mahi tacos and chicken-pancetta flatbread - both were great. Jayla often checked on us. We had a lovely time and the service was great! Thank you!“

“Very welcoming from the time we walked in the door. Had the Bison filet and it was perfect. The entire staff was on point with everything. Great for a date night or to bring the family out for dinner! Can’t wait to come again“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

“A great place just dropped by while waiting on my car getting serviced..
Michael's stellar personality was very inviting and personal. I ordered a burger.
Michael confirmed and went the extra step to explain and make sure my choice was good
I followed his suggestions and ordered The City Burger.“

“Penne Pasta with Pork Bolognese Crispy Lemongrass Chicken Caramelized Cauliflower It tastes good. The environment is nice“

“We enjoyed an amazing dinner. Our server, Micaela went over and above to ensure my gluten allergy was taken care of by the kitchen. Loved the atmosphere. Ps being Canadian I loved the hockey game was playing!!!“

“I don’t ever leave reviews due to my laziness, but today I decided to leave my very first review for this lovely place! This is our first experience at The Study. I honestly didn’t know what to expect as the restaurant seemed quite small.

We knew about the l live piano performance but it exceeded our expectations. Derek’s performance was so lovely and he sings really well! We love musics like such so it definitely made our experience even better!

Sean served us and he is absolutely a pleasant person to be greeted by - very friendly and sweet. Take his recs!

The food? It absolutely blew my mind - so healthy, clean, yet very flavorful. I can tell that ingredients were very fresh. We had arroz con mariscos and fried fish with avocado rice. I got obsessed with the avocado rice that came with the fried fish - rich in olive oil and lime (i think)! We absolutely cleared our plates leaving nothing behind. Chef Guzman gave us complimentary gaspachos and desserts for us to try and she came to ask how things were, which I thought was lovely.

Cocktails - delicious!! we had the one with coconut cream and another one with guava. SO GOOD! I think we’d even come back just for the drinks as well.

We already know that we’ll be back here again very soon. Before coming in I thought it was a bit pricey but having had the experience the experience is worth every penny. I highly recommend for cozy family dinners and date nights. You won’t regret!!“

“Wonderful atmosphere and exceptional service from Will. Food was tasty and very good portions. Memorable and will recommend to friends.“

“Really enjoyed drinks here! Cute spot hidden in plain sight. Cool entry ambiance, good vibes inside. Great and unique cocktails.

Only thing is that they seemed incredibly understaffed. The very kind host/waiter seemed incredibly overwhelmed and was virtually the only staff member we saw in the establishment. Note that they were at capacity, and we were early, so they didn’t let us in until at our reservation time and even a bit after.“

“I just happen to stumble on this hidden gem. The staff is amazing. They gave me great recommendations I decided to try the tropical shrimp salad sandwich,house chips, and hibiscus flower lemonade! So flavorful I will definitely be back to try the smoothies, and panini sandwiches.“

“Not to order the new side item elote corn 🌽 it looks nothing’s like what’s advertised I felt like smokey on Friday it was definitely a catfish experience and when spoke to the manager who was extremely friendly he said it doesn’t look like the picture I know Fridays is not going to spend all this money for training and advertising to sell this terrible product I do have pictures“

“Burger was a bit pink at the ends but it was still delicious. Fries were super salty though. But also delicious. Definitely try it out.“

“Had a blast friendly Staffa and great drinks“

“Amazing food and service. Love the atmosphere ❤️💙“

“We shared the roast beef sandwich and home fries. It was delicious!“

“Foods great.There's always plenty of space and seatings when we visit. However this time, i was running later but my party was already there & we ended up with tiny table booth all the way upstairs at the corner.Not great seating with so many choices with bigger booths.“

“Had plant- based and beef sausage corn dogs. Excellent. Really tasty. Highly recommend.“

“I have been at the Mount Vernon Inn Restaurant several times, but it seems that it is not what it used to be years ago. Specially, the food. Poor quality. I remember I used to enjoy my meals and the restaurant had a variety of choices, but not anymore. I am not sure we are going back unfortunately.“

“My girlfriend and I had the same cocktail which was very tasty and the 1st on menu. We ordered the tots and got something very different than expected that she could not have and i thought was fair at best. However our entrees were great. I had a very tasty steak in a good salad and her burger was modified to her liking with a little input from staff. We sat at the bar and service was good despite it being one persons first shift there. Will go back and order off the great wine selection!!!“

“First timer here but my children aren’t . They live in Arlington.“

“My daughter and I loved this place! Cozy, friendly atmosphere with great food and decent prices! We will definitely be returning!“

“It’s an outstanding establishment to eat & drink!!“

“Always have a nice time. The food is delicious“

“Great atmosphere, great food, and excellent customer service.“

“Lively neighborhood bar. Can be busy during the happy hour which ends at 7 pm weekdays. I was standing at the bar for a little over five minutes just before happy hour ended and it was so busy (on a Friday) that the bartender couldn't get to me until my watch said 7 pm. Initially he refused to honor the happy hour price, but when I explained that I had been standing there for a little while, he agreed. Good selection of beers.“

“great bartenders great staff service drinks music food!!“

“Celebrated a birthday in an invitingly warm atmosphere at Kiln. We began with liquid libations. Ordering a beer became a little tedious as a combination of a recent power outage with other unknown factors led to finally finding one satisfactory beer! Things became brighter with the yummy Kiln bread and soft butter enhanced w/flaky sea salt & seaweed (sounds odd but adds to the taste). For mains, the birthday boy thoroughly enjoyed his short ribs as I enjoyed the catfish accompanied by a yummy succotash. though one companion while enjoyed the catfish but found the succotash too vineagary for her taste and the other diner did not get excited over the rock fish. We did have a lovely pinot noir which paired well with the dishes. We ended the meal with an excellent carrot cake. A minor point, although upon our arrival the host quickly acknowledged we were celebrating a birthday as did the server, by the time dessert arrived, there wasn't even a candle or a hint that they remembered we were celebrating a special occasion. Finally, my double espresso was no more than a thimbleful. and the requested sugar never arrived. I will not doubt that our server said he pushed the double button, then the machine needs to be re-calibrated. The server did remove the charge which was appreciated.“

“keep in mind that the lobster roll is a warm butter, connecticut style roll which was SUPER disappointing when I had the expectations set that it would be a nice cold roll with some warm butter drizzled or added to the side.

oysters were delicious and flavorful, but pretty small in size. menu was pretty pricy for the amount of food given. I will say, although I was disappointed in the lobster roll, the amount of lobster that they give was very satisfying- they pack the roll with a ton of meat.

loved the Walrus-based / oceanic atmosphere. and yes, this restaurant is based off of Lewis Carrol’s Walrus and the Carpenter Story“

“Delicious vegan brunch with nice outdoor seating!“

“Had Kyle as a server who was FANTASTIC!! Food and atmosphere were great! Would definitely recommend! ⭐️⭐️“

“Try the extra crispy tater tots!“

“The tinier the French fries the better 😃 Excellent burger too.“

“We came here after the nationals game and Dylan was our server and it was his best experience ever. My husband had the liver and onions and I had the cob salad and it was delicious. My sister-in-law had the avocado salad. I would come here at 10 out of 10 a time every single time and don’t forget to ask for Dylan as your waiter. It was amazing. And order the Mojito!“

“This was our second time at Mount Vernon Restaurant, and it was just as wonderful as the first. The space is beautiful and comfortable, perfect for a relaxing meal. My omelette was fluffy and delicious, and everyone in our group enjoyed their food. We're already looking forward to coming back again.“

“The food was delicious. We had a large group but the service was very good. I will definitely visit again“

“I was so amazed just by walking in how friendly the staff was. The atmosphere was very lovely and as soon as we walked in we had the cashier ask us if we needed any help with the menu. The wait wasn’t bad at all for what we ordered. We got 3 cheesesteaks, Crab fries, Fish, etc.. The food just tased so immaculate! I have no complaints whatsoever and will be returning.“

“Awesome burger place! Every burger has plenty of juicy meat and the fries are unique. I definitely recommend the classic and the mushroom Swiss burgers. The cookies are nice. The service and wait time is great(I was even given an extra cookie) Drink + burger + fries + cookies comes to around 25 dollars which is very reasonable, and especially good since it is at an airport.“

“Haven’t had anything besides their wings and I’ve gotta say they’re delicious. Garlic parm was great! Garlic pepper was on the stronger side of flavoring, I liked them but didn’t love them. Friendly customer service from all three front cashiers. Wish I caught their names. Will be back for sure!“

“We were tired from touring all day and the clerk at Springhill Suites recommended an Italian place “just around the corner”. As we got closer, we could detect delicious smells in the air. As we entered, a cheery staff greeted us, and the cozy space was decorated with lots of photographs and traditional green and white checked tablecloths. We were offered fresh garlic bread while we looked over the menu. We both decided on the “individual” pizza, but let me tell you, us 2 ladies could’ve easily just split one! The veggie pizza was soooo fresh and yummy. If we’re ever in the area again, would definitely go back!“
