Lost Dog Cafe - McLean

First time at Lost Dog Cafe – McLean and we absolutely loved it! Every dish we tried was delicious — full of flavor and made with care. The menu has something for everyone, from fresh sandwiches to satisfying pastas and more.

One of the best parts? It’s dog-friendly! We could relax and enjoy a great meal with our furry friend right by our side. The atmosphere is casual, fun, and welcoming for both people and pups.

📍1690 Anderson Rd Suite A, McLean, VA 22102

Highly recommend for pet lovers and foodies alike!

We love Lost Dog and go often. So many different types of sandwiches. The decor is amazing. The artist is so talented.

Dining here is always a smooth, satisfying experience. Great quality - both in service and flavors.

Amazing, reasonably priced food—we ate on the patio out front with our pups, and they were thoughtful enough to bring out water bowls. We will be back!

I do not recommend this place at all. we doordashed pizza, Garlic Bread, onion rings, which cost about $60 even after the discount the store provided. the Garlic Bread and onion rings tasted old and the pizza is worse than domino pizza. Don't waste your money with this place.

The steak n cheese sandwich is truly great! It’s a regular for us and I’ll keep coming back for it. The ingredients are always fresh.
The chicken sandwiches need improvement. The meat is too dry and tasteless.
The worst perhaps is the fries. They’re good when dining in, but 3 out of four times of takeout, they are almost burnt and not waffle like. Please don’t send leftovers from the pan to people who order takeout :)

Lovely little spot. Service and food are decent, and for drinks you're gonna wanna grab one from the fridge rather than wait for the one overwhelmed bartender. Bonus points for their Tuesday night free trivia nights! Would recommend!

Oh and keep in mind that this is NOT a pet friendly establishment though you might assume it from their name and their altruistic mission to donate to local shelters. Just a heads up.

Parking: Parking lot is a very large one that is shared with a Safeway. Some nights you might have to park a little far out but I've never once seen it completely full. Handicapped parking up front and electric vehicle charging stations also available.

It was extremely hard for me to go to these lower levels of reviewing regarding stars. We must’ve waited 15 minutes for our drinks to get served because for me, the bartender was not even on shift yet which is not my responsibility nor my fault. The way I view this is if they open the doors, then they had better have the appropriate staff and resource is ready for serving the public. This was not the case.

The food came out just overly greasy and that was honestly to be expected, but it was just overall three out of 10 level food. Five stars is way too big of a cut as it adds too much credit and not enough granularity. I would give this 3 out of 10 overall score for the restaurant service and atmosphere.

Need more stars for this one! 10/10!
If you like roast beef try the president sandwich- substitute the Mayo for garlic Mayo!
