New American Restaurants near Ft. Belvoir, VA

“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.“

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

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

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

“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.“

“Leyla was awesome. She has a great personality and was very knowledgeable of the menu. She greeted us in a timely manner & kept us informed of changes in service and who was assisting her during her brief absence. Customer service was great. Fintin was great as well.. attentive, friendly and great customer service. This was one of our best experiences at Yard House. Thank you Leyla & Fintin.“

“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 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.“

“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!“

“Excellent raw bar and seafood restaurant. Walrus seafood tower was amazing with a great sampling of the raw bar. Pork belly and lobster salad was really good and so was the pasta although it was quite spicy. Great dining experience and time.“

“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!“

“We were seating next to a window - which was closed. However, very cold air got thru that window and made the whole experience very uncomfortable for two of my friends. My seat was against a wall, and I was OK. The food was very good and Andres service was excellent, as usual.“

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

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

“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.“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

“Great food and very clean place“

“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“

“met some family members this morning for brunch. was seated almost immediately....there was a minor 'glitch' that was had that got the Mgr on duty, (Eric) involved. Eric was Extremely nice and accommodating. We will be returning.....Thank you Eric and staff !“

“This charming restaurant has a limited menu but they do everything deliciously well. Entered through an unimposing path between two buildings, you can either eat in a historic house or on the two level landscaped patio complete with a waterfall. The service is attentive but unrushed for a relaxing experience.“

“Amazing, cozy, upscale atmosphere. Only 8 tables in a sophisticated setting. We were there on a night when the piano was in full swing - adding to the ambiance. The food was delicious, and our server (Sean) went way above and beyond to make our experience great. It was a little pricey - but well worth it!“

“Our favorite local spot… always great food, service and drinks, always consistent!“

“We arrived at ~6:45 and were a bit concerned that the restaurant was not very busy and looked almost closed but it wasn't. We had the skirt steak and wild salmon. Both tasted very good and were well prepared. Service was friendly and quick. Based on our experience, we were wondering why more people weren't eating here. Thanks for a good meal after a day of traveling and sight seeing.“

“Average for a hotel restaurant. The convenience of being right inside The Westin is great, but the quality just doesn’t quite deliver.

The “focaccia” turned out to be rye bread with caraway seeds, not what we were expecting. We ordered it mainly for the whipped feta, which made for an interesting pairing. However, we did enjoy the assortment of pickled vegetables, honey, and butter on the side.

The meatballs were okay, nothing memorable. The pastrami sandwich was a letdown; we’d recommend skipping it.

On a positive note, the drinks were solid, reliable and well-made, as you’d expect from a hotel bar. Cheers!“

“Wonderful food and experience“

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

“Delicious vegan brunch with nice outdoor seating!“

“Klebers Restaurant, is an excellent place to eat and enjoy karaoke, whoever wants to say otherwise is in bad taste and little class, there you can play billiards for free too and the attention is appropriate and good service TOTALLY RECOMMENDED,13634 Jefferson Davis HwyWoodbridgeVirginiaAttended by its Owner and collaborators.???“

“Choosing Charlene’s Kitchen, LLC was the best decision I made for my event. Charlene, you created the exact atmosphere I wanted, but didn’t know how to describe. Like you could see the vision in my head. The food was as delicious as it was beautiful. The most beautiful presentation of food and drinks I’ve ever seen - Absolutely stunning in every way! Not a single detail was left out. You and your staff are highly talented and professional. I could never thank you enough. My guests are still raving about the flavorful food and the special drink, the one with your homemade cherry syrup. Best drink I’ve ever had! And the bartender was on point, my glass was never empty. With Charlene’s Kitchen, I was able to spend time with my guest, relax and enjoy the event because I knew they had it all handled. Thank you Charlene, truly - thank you! My girls are already planning another event - just to have more of your food. ❤️“

“Outstanding restaurant & bar inside the Embassy Suites. First off, their breakfast offering is beyond reproach. Great entrees & service. The dinners are also fantastic. It's a great feeling to have a restaurant in your hotel where you can have a great meal, a few drinks & zero worries. Their breakfast is from 6 am - 9 am on weekdays & 7 am - 10 am on the weekends. They also offer an evening social hour. If you're a guest of Embassy Suites their room service hours are 11 am to 11 pm, everyday including weekends.“

“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.“

“We live right by Mason Social so I’m not sure why we aren’t here all the time. Our server/bartender Trish should always pick the music. Killer kale salad and great (surprise!) 50% off wine bottles on Wednesday! Will be back“

“Excellent evening at the Woodbridge, VA NYAJs yesterday! We were greeted by the manager Usy( I’m not good at names) who was working on clearing tables. We had a couple minute wait for our outside table. There were 3 of us and we ordered drinks and appetizers to share. Desi was our server. She was attentive and cheerful (not annoyingly so). The Bang Bang Shrimp, Potstickers and my favorite Ahi Tuna Wontons were wonderful! Cocktails as well! We all had been regulars up to about 18 months ago as the service was atrocious. So glad NYAJ is back. This is my 2nd visit in a month. Will be back soon. Kudos to the new manager and staff. Keep it up!“

“Love IKEA! We even grabbed a bite to eat this time snd it was yummy! Wish they still mailed catalogs though so I could plan my list better!“

“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!“

“The food at Copperwood Tavern is great! They have a lot of variety on the menu, and everything I've tasted has been very good. They also have great drinks, and the service has always been friendly and efficient. I've dined here three times and will definitely come back.“

“First time back since renovations and wow what a story this place is. It started with the chicken & waffles. The meat was really pink and hard to bite into so I decided to do french toast instead. (Minus the almond cookies.) and it was delicious but it was soft as butter so I had to request a spoon 😮 On top of that, the bartender complimented not only my neurodivergent tattoos 🏳️‍🌈♾️ but also gave me a free mocktail. Though I will warn you it’s real strong. I tasted mostly lemon but it had a hint of maple and tea. Which is ironic because strong taste is why I prefer tea over coffee (if I had to pick between the two). Regardless, these people deserve some love especially in the economic crises we have.“

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

“We wanted to try something new. I came fro brunch, but when we were seated the brunch menu was not provided. The waiter took a while so my husband had to get up and get the brunch menus. I asked about the cocktail towers, what he explained was not what I saw later on for other patrons. Had he explained it better my husband and I would've ordered one. Once we finally placed our order the waiters follow up was very poor. We finished our food and the plates were never cleared from the table. Then had to ask go the check and a box for my son's leftovers. The customer service needs some work or the waiters have too many tables I'm not really sure what the issue was.“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“Husband and I both got 2 meat platter because we wanted leftovers. It’s enough food for 3 meals easy. Everything was delicious!! My favorites were the brisket, cucumber salad and cornbread. Donna’s got it going on cause her food is full of flavor!!“
