New American Restaurants near Fort Hunt, VA

“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!“

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

“Incredible food and atmosphere and service 5 stars all the way“

“We are from Ohio visiting the area and Tim was GREAT! Very personable and gave us some great tips! Food was great too!“

“Best place for good food and a girls night or sweet date! Food and atmosphere are on point. We had Tom as our server. Knowledgeable about the food, great conversationalist, and the cutest dimples! Highly recommend this place! Ask for Tom and you won’t be disappointed! The other servers are great too!“

“Always a great place to stop for food and drink.“

“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.“

“From the moment we stepped through the doors of Jula's on the Potomac, we knew we were in for a special experience. Everyone's dish was a masterstroke. From start to finish, Jula's on the Potomac delivered an experience that was thoughtful, refined, and full of heart. It’s the kind of place that turns a dinner into a memory. Five stars without hesitation. My wife will never forget her 50th Birthday celebration brunch. Bishop Avery Kinney Sr. will be back—and bringing everyone he knows. It was worth the drive from Richmond. ❤💯“

“The advocado toast was generously loaded with fresh advocado and hierloom grape tomatoes on top of nicely toasted sourdough bread. The coffee was hot and fresh. The service was friendly and prompt. The dining area was spacious and peaceful.“

“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“

“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!“

“The bartenders are great and friendly enough given the size of the bar and restaurant as a whole. Prices are reasonable, and the drinks are tasty. Yard House is a nice relaxed spot to go solo for a nice dinner, fun and exciting enough to hit for HH, chill enough to bring your kids. Overall, it's a solid spot. Parking is a bit tight, but you can usually find a space during the week. Located in Springfield Mall.“

“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!“

“Amazing Steakhouse ?,,,,!!!!!! Incredibly delicious!!!! Quality in Every Way!!!!“

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

“Borrowing from their words. More than 30 years later, the Silver Diner has gone from a nostalgic American icon serving affordable family food to a highly overrated restaurant serving overpriced food that allegedly reflect’s today’s lifestyles. But the one thing that will never change is the stench of their restrooms throughout the diner.“

“Amazing gluten free food. Delicious. I thought I would never have onion rings again“

“Burtons is such a blessing for those with allergies! Staff are highly trained, and everything is labeled so carefully! Every server has been top notch and the food is amazing!“

“Nice brunch with a French tilt. Benedict was great, avoid the chicken and waffles.

We recently had dinner. Very nice experience. Good relatively inexpensive wine selection. Bouibase special was very skimpy and overpriced. Other entree were fine. Excellent chocolate dessert.“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

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

“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!“

“been going there for over 25 years!Great food!.Jack Daniels shrimp is always a hit!“

“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!!“

“Anaya is a great waitperson! We really had a great time. she was helpful & has a great personality! Food was great too! Dessert was awesome.We had the bread pudding“

“The Sea Bass was a total suprise. More often than not I am dissapointed when I order fish. Not the case here. The presentation was superb. The blend of flavors, textures and colors was an epicurean delight. Our waiter/bartender Damany was thoughtful, always on point without being intrusive. The whole experience was one worth repeating.“

“The Cori Midden Kitchen is a quintessential American restaurant that offers an intimate and cozy dining experience akin to a homey dining room. The exceptional customer service, coupled with food cooked from scratch, made our brunch visit with a large party quite memorable. Our waiter, Cathy, provided attentive service, ensuring our needs were met throughout the meal. We indulged in a variety of brunch items, with favorites including the catfish nuggets and cornbread, alongside lamb chops(small lamb chops), deviled eggs, and fried tomatoes. For our entrees, the shrimp omelette, French toast, chicken and waffles, and catfish and grits were all exquisite. Despite a few minor mishaps, the overall experience was delightful, and I highly recommend this establishment for its delicious food. It was a nice touch when the chef personally greeted our table, adding to the warmth of the experience. Advisable to book your reservation in advance, I look forward to returning in the future.“

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

“Great food, awesome service!!“

“The service was amazing and the food was good.“

“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.“

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

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

“A concept created during the pandemic, I’m so glad it’s back inside Shilling Canning Company. Available inside and to go, there are six sandwiches on the menu and a weekend breakfast burrito. Every part of the sandwich is created in house except for raising the animals for the meat.Trying every sandwich at their launch party, every single one was delicious, especially with the housemade buns. However, my favorite was the “Chivito” with beef, ham, bacon, egg, and more. The “Ampburger” tastes like a gourmet Big Mac and it’s everything.Their wedge fries are crispy and nice. The homemade chocolate chip cookies are chocolate heavy and always warm. So good!They also sell Mexican Coca-Cola and Sprite in glass bottles.Service is always excellent and street or a paid parking lot are nearby.“

“Fast & friendly service and some very nice pasta for lunch... Nicer than I expected from the decor which was a bit old & tired - I probably wouldn't have tried the place, if it weren't for seeing other good reviews! Could stand to turn the AC down a bit “

“Delicious vegan brunch with nice outdoor seating!“

“Looking for a fun activity with our family before Thanksgiving, we chose bowling. The prices were definitely cheaper than commercial locations. The place was clean with stations every few lanes with balls organized by color and weight. There were ramps available for anyone to use if necessary. There is also the ability to set bumpers to raise and lower for an individual in your group. You have the ability to edit your score, which is great because a few times pins would fall on their own and add to the score. There were options for scoring using regular bowling rules or other fun games. While we didn’t eat there, but there were plenty of food and drink selections. My only issue was the balls were very oily and the finger holes were very small. Staff said that’s how they were ordered but offered me a small container of baby powder to use.“

“Wonderful food and experience“

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

“Very nice spot!!!....Woke up thinking about that good food on the menu today lol can't wait to go back!“

“Had the election burger and it was prepared very well...we had a large table and the cook did great. Our server Dalia was an elegant lady with old world class and style who had a genuine heartfelt quality to her who was just very good at what she did but made you feel like a honored friend, l liked her very much because l could see what a nice, kind and smart lady she is. Food and service was very good, if you go, it should be very good.
Thank you Dalia.“

“Great service and delicious food! Definitely recommend and will come again next time I am in town. Staff is super friendly and welcoming and suggest great options for my dietary needs.“

“this staff is always on top of the game, constantly anticipating our needs. thank you Anya, Michelle and Jordan!“

“Exceptional service and wonderful food made with quality ingredients. Warm, upscale atmosphere.“

“I was really impressed with the food at Copperwood Tavern! Everything was top notch. The peach crostini was absolutely delicious, as was the spaghetti squash. My server was wonderful and made sure my margarita was made just to my liking. The ambiance of the restaurant is very casual. I had reviewed the menu beforehand, and was excited to see such an upscale farm to table presentation. For this reason I was expecting a more upscale environment in terms of decor, but the restaurant in my opinion is overly rustic and perhaps a bit shabby. The noise level was ok. It got a bit loud but I could still hold a conversation with ease. I would definitely go back to Copperwood Tavern! The food is top notch and a welcome deviation from the norm.“

“Stopped on way to VA from NH after driving all night. Needed a quiet place near airport to park and take a short nap. This was the perfect option. Park police building on north side of the island, parked for free on the south end. After the sun came up had some beautiful views of DC across the Potomac. Decided breakfast was needed and to our surprise the Potomac grille was exactly what we had in mind. Menu is limited based on deliveries and support from park services. A very large renovation program for the island is approved and in progress.This park is a very spacious, pretty, quiet and a nice green oasis in the modern of the busy city.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space, indoor and out door seating. Menu choices are limited based on options delivered to Cafe. The entire island has been approved for overhaul so support for services is in a sunset period.

Parking: Plentiful and free until major renovations are completed

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space, restrooms are clean and in good condition at cafe building. Some outdoor public restrooms are still functional.“

“I was very impressed with Brabo. The drinks were very good and the food was excellent. The service was off the charts though! Exceptional service. This was for a wedding rehearsal dinner and they were very accommodating but just seemed to be naturally good at this type of event. Well done!“
