“My husband and I had dinner at D’Roccos in Occoquan tonight. They are under new management and reviews were great, so we went. Our server, Yun, I believe she said she was an owner or related to the owner (🤦‍♀️).She was amazing as was all the staff. We were a bit hesitant as walked in along with a party of 14 and several smaller ones but it was all hands on deck, for wonderful food, with timely delivery! We had the calamari- cooked so perfectly you could cut it with a fork! The lasagna was very good with a tomato and bechamel sauce with veal and pork. I had the octopus with fingerling potatoes and zucchini… AMAZING! I’m an octopus junkie! Tiramisu was not a classic presentation though it was excellent! We loved it! Check it out! Let’s support our local small businesses!“

“Great food and service we were at the Woodbridge Virginia location celebrating the end of our daughter radiation therapy treatment and we had Amanda as a waitress wonderful service and then they congratulated us and didn't charged us for the full meal. Not about the money but we still have love ❤ out there.“

“MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO THE ENTIRE STAFF AT MAGGIANO’s, SPRINGFIELD, VA! There are not enough word in the dictionary to describe my experience in Maggiano’s! From the time I make reservations through walking through the front door of the restaurant, the service, the managers, the chef, the food, to serving the BEST ITALIAN CUISINE SINCE ITALY, and cleanliness in the restrooms. Look, I live in Old Town Alexandria, VA, where there are some of the best Italian restaurants on the East Coast but those restaurants do not compare to my Maggiano’s. I seriously have to drive out of my way, Springfield, to get the Best Italian on the East Coast. It’s worth every second. The cuisine inside this Maggiano’s tastes exactly like my Italian grandparent’s cooked it. I frequent this restaurant at least once or twice a week. Thank you Mo, (manager), Jessie (server), and the rest of the staff at my Maggiano’s! Dana Neese, 12-23-2023.“

“We had a party of 10, traveling from FL, CA, DE, and CT. Everything couldn't have been better! The food, the drinks, the service, and the fact they let us enjoy our time together without once urging us to leave, made for a dinner to remember. Thank you, Osteria de Nino!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Paisanos Pizza in Woodbridge, and it was a fantastic experience! The pizza was delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors and a wonderfully crispy crust.

What really stood out was the exceptional service from the store manager, Tony. He was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and that our visit was enjoyable. His positive attitude and genuine care for customers made our meal even better.

I highly recommend Paisanos Pizza for anyone looking for great food and outstanding service. I can’t wait to return!“

“Enjoyed the food immensely!“

“As part of the US Army, I was sustained in Italy many years ago. I have struggled until now to find quality, amazing tasting Italian food. Mamma's Kitchen in Alexandria surpassed all expectations. Every course of the meal was just what you would expect when dining in Italy. Thanks for the great experience and for the memories it brought back.“

“Great brunch experience. A restaurant does not have to be perfect to have a great experience and meal. My wife and I decided to try brunch and had a really nice time. Clean and friendly with nice decor and better atmosphere. Food was top notch! Fresh ingredients, well prepared, and appropriately seasoned. I have had eggs Benedict the world over and this was one of the best I’ve ever had.

Two issues were our server, and most of the service team honestly, seemed a bit inexperienced and our peach Bellini. It definitely was not a peach Bellini.

I would definitely be willing to give Corso a try if in the neighborhood.“

“Awesome place. Food is beyond amazing. Staff was professional and kind. Can not say enough about this place. Will come back very soon.“

“excellent service delicious Italian food“

“We love the food… we eat here often when in Alexandria. Spaghetti Carbonara is one of my favorites! And, my 7-year old grandson gives the kids spaghetti 2 thumbs up!“

“The best pizza I've had in this area. What a hidden gem this place is!!“

“Great food! We go there every week at least twice a week.“

“We have been trying to find a really good pizza place for the past 3 years. We have finally found it. Everyone was so nice. The pizza is amazing. Highly recommend.“

“I had a good time here. Ordered the mozzarella sticks, crispy chicken sandwich, small spicy pizza, and the gyro platter.
I don’t have any complaints. Mozzarella sticks are as you expect it, classic and good. I enjoyed the chicken sandwich. The chicken is on the thinner side so if you prefer it thick, you might want to pass on this one.
My husband liked the spicy pizza. He said it was a bit greasy but that’s what you can expect with all those toppings. The crust is on the thinner side as well.
For the gyro platter, we don’t have anything to compare it to since this was our first time trying gyro. So not too much to say on it except it was good.
They have a bar with 2 tvs that looked like a popular spot when dining alone. Overall good experience, good service, good food.“

“Excellent food and the owner aims to please her customers!“

“I had a very enjoyable experience here. The staff and management were amazing and very kind. I would recommend this as my top choice for pizza in the lake ridge area! Very quick and efficient service, and I could tell that the food was made fresh!“

“Nice and comfy place in where the music and the warm environment makes you to feel with all your senses a nice experience when you are eating at this restaurant. The customer service is really friendly and willing always to help you with any concern about your food order. You certainly will love the experience.

Parking: There is plenty spaces for parking during morning days but you must consider the busy hours because you might not find free spaces.“

“good food and good employees 👌“

“Came here with my family and my server was Brayden. He was very nice and helpful with everything made sure we had everything we needed. Food was excellent i loved the pizza. Food and Service was a A+“

“I had the personal size sausage and pepperoni pizza and a soft drink. . Everything is made to order, so it was fresh, hot, and delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. Only a few small tables and chairs for dining in, but that was fine when I went. I enjoyed watching the impressively skilled chef make pizzas for others while I ate.“

“I live 30 miles from Cafe Pizzaiolo so it's not a restaurant I often visit. It is right next to my Volvo dealership in Alexandria, VA. My family really likes it when I take my vehicle in for service. They know I am going to load up on Pizza. I'm from Philly and I am particular about my pizza. They are the best I've found and the service is fantastic.“

“Excellent food; great variety!“

“20240927 Came here with my coworkers. To be fair, by the time I arrived [late], the pizzas were cold. I added a star to this review because I assume the warm pizzas would be a lot better. The pizza was pretty good, but it is not the best I had. I ate a slice from the 4 pizzas on the table. I was pretty hungry ?. There was 1 pizza that stood out. The cheese had a funny taste. Fortunately, I got a slice that didn't have a lot of cheese or meat on it. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't get that pizza again.... AS IT TURNED OUT... it was a Vegan Pizza!!! Fake cheese, fake meat!! No wonder the cheese tasted funny! ? I'm a true believer of... don't make or eat anything that looks like animal products if it is vegan. ? I tried their fresh lemonade with grapes, and thin apple and lemon slices. My first sip of the lemonade was pretty much all sugar. Thanks to my coworker who suggested stirring it. Ah!! So much better!! I can taste the lemon juice. It's still pretty sweet, but I like it that way. I would get the lemonade again. I brought back a steak and cheese with fries for my friend at work, and he seemed to like it. The fries smelled so good in my car. If I were to come back, I would probably try another menu item.. especially their soup that looked delicious in the photo. I should have checked out their menu. The lady who took my order was very friendly.“

“The food seem a bit scare. They didn't bring a full bowl of soup. When asked to refill the soup the server brought out a small helping. The server barely came to the table. Asked server to bring soup and salad after the appetizer and she brought out everything at once.🤨“

“Great halal food variety 👏“

“Excellent food. The owner is a great chef and the staff are very friendly. Chicken kebabs are the best.“

“The most tasty Pizza in the area. It is so authentic and good. nice atmosphere and a very clean restaurant. the owner and the workers are so sweet and friendly. I definitely recommend this place to everyone.“

“Our favourite restaurant. Family atmosphere“

“I gave it 4 stars because I didn't enjoy the steak and cheese. I felt like it needs more meat with all the bread in this sub. It needs to be evenly distributed but I can't say it wasn't tasty. The pizza is good and the service is good. I didn't have any other issues.“

“So much better than other locations. Order was made correctly and promptly on a busy Friday. The staff welcomed me immediately and were kind and happy. The pictures of the local little league they sponsor add charm and a local feel. Very good.“

“We love coming to Armetta’s! The staff is always friendly and making sure to maintain a welcoming atmosphere. Everything we tried so far of their menu tasted great. Definitely one of our go to restaurants in the area“

“I recently visited paisanos pizza in Springfield it was a fantastic experience the atmosphere was warm and inviting ..perfect for a casual meal the staff was friendly and attentive making sure we had everything we needed.The wait was minimal“

“I just loved eating here this afternoon, not only do they have delicious pizza that you leaves you feeling great, the customer service is top notch! I have not truly experienced great customer service like this since pre-covid. They also have a great gluten free pizza, cooked a served on its own tray! Homemade salad dressings and herbs growing out front! Will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely THE BEST food and service ... called for delivery today since I'm home cleaning /decorating ... truly awesome!! Been getting food from these guys for years ... never EVER disappointed ❤️❤️❤️“

“Great service and tasty food . Will return again“

“Reasonably priced drinks and karaoke was fun!“

“I had a bad experience one Friday night, and I thought that this business only cared about making money and didn't care about customers. I even wrote a scathing review as I do when I think a business deserves it. I was wrong.After the owner Dave reached out about my initial review with genuine contrition, I was so moved by his act that I deleted my initial review and rewrote it to reflect the character of this business. Not only did Dave reach out to me once but twice, which tells me that he does in fact care take a pride of ownership in his business. After taking full ownership of that night's fiasco, he explained his dilemma, which amounted to taking on an order that would have (and did) push them beyond their capacity. It was also coupled with his most experienced team moving onto college. To make things right, he was gracious enough to offer me a generous in-store credit equal to what I initially ordered.And these are the businesses that I want to support. They're the ones that aren't always perfect, but who truly strive to be. They're the businesses that take responsibility for when things aren't right and make them right when they're not. They're the ones who care about the business relationship with their customers.Dave - thank you for your professional grace, and thanks for truly showing your focus on your customers. I extend my sincere apologies for being another irate customer that night. You've won a loyal customer and you guys will be my first choice for great food at a great price with great service. Thank you!“

“Great food!! very friendly!!!“

“I just had the best lunch experience as a first time customer. My waitress Nancy was extremely friendly and very polite. The food was delicious and came out extremely fast. Can’t wait to eat here again.“

“Love Vocelli pizza! They have great lunch specials, fast delivery, and online ordering with email updates on status.“

“Come and check the DJ on the bar side on Fridays from 7-11.“

“Most unique gelato I ever had. But it wasn’t bad! 👍🏻“

“Vocelli Pizza exceeded my expectations in every way! It’s a nice pizza take out spot off Backlick road. Their pizza is truly exceptional – the crust is crispy yet soft inside, and the toppings are always fresh and generously spread. I particularly loved the deluxe, the cupped pepperoni with all the fresh toppings and veggies was amazing! Their pepperoni rolls are really good as well, full of cheese and pepperoni. Their service is prompt and friendly, making the whole dining experience even better. Next time ur in Springfield, you need to check this place out. Highly Recommend!“

“I am here eating writing this review. Best food in the area. I just moved to Alexandria. This location is 3 minutes from my house. The owner is great. The place is clean which is important. I say that because some places different restaurants bathrooms are not clean or not wearing gloves cooking the food. This place please give your business.“
