“I had an incredible dining experience at Brazza Steaks, the Venezuelan restaurant. Everything about this place was amazing. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at home. Carlos, the owner, took the time to sit down and chat with us. His passion for the food and his friendliness made the experience even more special. The server was awesome, offering fantastic recommendations that truly enhanced our meal. The food was exceptional, with each dish bursting with authentic Venezuelan flavors. I can't recommend Brazza Steaks enough; it's a must-visit for anyone looking for a delightful meal for a great price!“

“The food is always great quality and top notch in flavor! The staff is friendly and helpful while the restaurant is clean and inviting. If you’re looking for a good BBQ meal, I would highly recommend giving Mission BBQ a try! They also have an amazing catering menu that is perfect for any event or gathering.“

“Great place. Love the military representation in each franchise.“

“I've driven by the Mission BBQ on Semoran Avenue in Orlando plenty of times but never stopped to try their food. Well, 800 miles away, there's a Mission BBQ right next to my hotel in Virginia. So, I asked myself... why not? Could this be a sign I should give them a try?

I walked in, and the first thing you notice is all the military and first responder memorabilia everywhere, which they support through fundraisers. Great ambiance, and the staff seemed to really love what they do.

I went with the three-meat plate with mac and cheese and baked beans. I loved the option to choose which part of the brisket you prefer...in my case, the point. Super moist and packed with flavor. I also added the jalapeño sausage, and wow... they were incredible! So juicy and flavorful. The ribs were excellent too, with a perfect smoky flavor.

The mac and cheese was perfect, and the beans were great as well. Overall, it was an amazing meal. I can't wait to try the one on Semoran to see if the food is consistent“

“Delish !! Fun time hanging out eating with a group of people !“

“Great food and friendly staff!“

“First time there while in the shopping center, randomly. So good! incredible service (employee handed me tinfoil to cover the additional sauces I got so they don't leak in the bag without asking) and I literally have food for like 4 meals and only purchased 2! Just $40 for 2, 1/2 slabs of ribs with 2 sides and cornbread each order!! So yummy!!“

“Who is that guy in the smoking truck in the Reston Park and Ride lot? It's Uncle Fred. I drove by him way too many times before I stopped in and now I can't stay away. I forgive myself for not getting on board sooner. Give Uncle Fred a try. I know you'll be a fan like me.“

“I made a delivery for work there and got the pulled barbecue sandwich. I say it was very delicious, I recommend it.“

“Food was amazing 🤩 if you love steak 🥩 you must come here!!! We will be back soon for round two 🤣“

“We’ve eaten at The Falls for both date nights and family outings and were extremely impressed every time. I was excited to hear they also do catering! We called The Falls, spoke to Kelly and she was super helpful, communicative and helped with everything from how much food would be appropriate for our size event and how many staff would be recommended. We had our annual Santa party with 190 people and everyone was super impressed with the food quality, the attentive staff and how friendly and courteous they were. They left my house cleaner than before the party and even boxed up some left overs for us to enjoy. They’re a true blessing and made our party one we’ll remember for years! Thank You- to Kelly and Mark and the entire Falls crew!“

“Two days ago we had the 1/3/2022 mini blizzard here in nova. I had started my new job just down the street from their location so decided to order curb side pickup from online. Well, when I finally go outside and start driving I see how bad the weather is and get to RHB but it looks closed. I pull in and promptly get stuck at the entryway. I finally make it and get my car out of the unplowed lot and decide i best go back to my new job hungry. I had no food, it was birthday and I was pretty sure after encountering the weather I may be stranded at this job over night. So, I drive back to my office and get stuck right at the entryway of the parking lot! Then the restaurant manager from RHB calls me about my order and I explain what happened and my current situation . He says just drive down the street and he will bring it out to me And I explain im stuck again but ill try! So 15 mins later im stuck in the same spot and a random gentleman in a truck stops and offers to plow me out which was no easy task but he does it anyways and then RASHEED RHB calls me again and i explain my dilemma snd says ill bring it to you send the address. Im like omg thank you! What are you arrives at my office I offered a Tip snd he says no but I explained that I had been stuck in the snow twice and that it’s my birthday and I might be stranded here thank you so much. He wished me a happy birthday and I told him that let me do something so I’m writing this review. Go see Rashid at the red hot and blue and Fairfax one of the nicest guys!“

“Great place to get together with family or friends, food variety is good and the service is great.
All the meats we tried were really good.
The steak, the beef bogoly, the thin sliced pork and the thin sliced brisket, all good.
The shrimp ... Not so much..we ordered it twice, the 2nd time it was not good, I Mean it was going bad, we didn't eat it.
The waiter was very apologetic.
Will decently go back , no shrimp though...“

“excellent ramen and customer service. I am beyond impressed!!! Great job!!!!“

“The best of the best and I’m a chef !!!!!! Will be back many many times . Thanks for the great service and even better food !!!!“

“LongHorn Steakhouse in Chantilly never disappoints! The steaks are always seasoned just right and cooked perfectly every time. The chicken wings with their signature seasoning are incredible, and the grilled shrimp and lobster tail are always spot on—tender, flavorful, and delicious. We’ve also tried the burger and the pork chop on past visits and both were excellent.

The restaurant is consistently clean and well-maintained, which adds to the great experience.

Service is another highlight. Sam, the bartender, is fantastic—she takes such great care of guests and even when it’s busy, she makes sure you never feel overlooked. She’s a real gem.

I’ve also noticed the managing partner on several occasions stepping in to help his staff, which says a lot about the culture here.

If you haven’t visited yet, it’s definitely worth a stop—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Came for dessert after dinner at the plaza next door, and we got the Red Bean Bingsoo. Love that they use shaved milk, and not shaved ice 🥹 it is on the pricier end for the amount of bingsoo you get (the V-shaped bowl is slightly deceptive), but every bite was worth it.

Saw that there was a self-serve ramen bar, so I’d definitely come back here with friends next time!“

“Nice place! Food was great and friendly service.“

“I recently visited Makchang Dodok K-BBQ, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. They made us feel right at home, walking us through the menu and offering helpful suggestions for first-timers. You can tell they really care about creating a great experience for their guests.

The service was fast and efficient without feeling rushed. Our server kept checking in to make sure everything was cooked to our liking and that our drinks and side dishes were always full. It’s rare to find such a friendly and professional team at a busy restaurant, and they truly stood out.

As for the food—delicious! The meats were fresh and flavorful, and the signature makchang (beef or pork intestine) was perfectly prepared with that satisfying char. If you’re a fan of authentic Korean BBQ, this place delivers both in taste and atmosphere.

Highly recommend for a casual night out, a group dinner, or anyone looking to try something new with excellent service to match. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Outstanding dinning experience! We’ve been to and have had Korean BBQ, but NOTHING compares to this! The quality of food, knowledgeable staff, creative cocktails and atmosphere are what make this restaurant well worth the visit. EVERYTHING was OUTSTANDING! I’ve never enjoyed a restaurant more that Gyu-shige! AAA+ We will be back!“

“Modern day CHEERS! BEST bar in the DMV! AMAZING PLACE! GREAT vibe/bands/staff/food/bar/service, and the most warm and welcoming staff and "regulars"! Remember the show "CHEERS"? Rename it Pete's! "Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came." Just add terrific live music, great acoustics, and the best dance floor around! Truly impressive across the board - friendly, welcoming and FUN. Pete, Kelly and their team are true professionals; they love their work and make sure everyone feels welcome. Pete personally goes from table to table - when he's not joining the band/playing guitar! Kelly is wonderful, kind, warm, and consistently books the BEST bands around. Bartender Bo is indeed "super cool" and funny. Servers Mario and Andrea are helpful, attentive, efficient, and keep everyone very well-fed. Chef Pete (different one) regularly impresses with tasty appetizers, entrees, salads (Greek is a fave), desserts, and more. More than worth a visit - keep going back! I'm proud to be a regular (OK - groupie/super-fan) and my nights at Pete's are true weekend highlights. Thanks to everyone at Pete's for providing night after night of great food, music, and community! I've made some lifelong friends and would recommend Pete's to anyone wanting a fun night out with great people.“

“Got the chicken and rib combo . the chicken was super tender and moist, and the ribs were meaty and tender as well . It was very good and the gentlemen that I picked up the food from , was very nice and friendly. and the place looked beautiful on the inside . I must go and have a sit down. thanks for a great meal !“

TRY IT FOR YOURSELF...... YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPOINTED!“

“Used to be one my favorite places for Korean bbq, and was high on my list of places to recommend to others, but with each visit I have noticed the portion size getting smaller. I feel like the price to meat ratio now is becoming a bit unfair (at least for me). Hence, 4 stars.“

“I have been searching for a place that could make dumplings that tasted like my hominis since she passed away. I have found it here, I will never go anywhere else. When it comes to authentic Korean food this is the place to go. Everything is delicious“

“You should try eat in here. The foods are excellent and professional to service.I really love eat in here.“

“Must Try place with unique flavors BBQ, bowls,Burritos,Taco's, Korean flavor Burgers are amazing must try Bulgogi Fries“

“Good food and excellent service.“

“I opted for delivery. The food was still hot when it got to me. The jajangmyeon was really savory and paired well with all the kimchi that came with it. I also ordered a side of veggie dumplings and also went well with the black bean sauce.“

“Love how traditional this place was and the service was amazing. Mimi was super nice and the workers work very fast. Food comes out very fast and it was all super delicious. The banchan was really good and everything overall was super cheap. I’m from new york and the quality of meat is the same for so much less money.“

“It took me for a while to write a review since I’ve never done lol. Food surely brought me nostalgia- my favorite Maratang place in Seoul which is my hometown. More on that, I wanted to leave a review not just because of the food quality, but because of the service. The owner and staff were insanely friendly, like AMAZING. I also loved how the owner took out all the water before measuring my food haha—so thoughtful. If you’re in the area, you’ve gotta try them. No regrets!“

“The service was excellent. I like the special treat in the end. Glad we decided to go here.“

“Great Korean BBQ spot! The meat was fresh and flavourful, especially the bulgogi and seafood. Tons of tasty side dishes, and grilling at the table made it super fun. Staff were friendly and helpful. Perfect for groups or a casual night out. Highly recommend!“

“Great food and hospitality can’t wait to come back! Food was piping hot and complimentary condiments were delicious! My fish was perfectly cooked!“

“Hesitated to try this place because of some of the reviews. Our second time dining here and both times it was pretty good. The pulled pork was moist and the fries, loaded potato salad and slaw were good. Service was quick. The hog sauce is kind of like a Kansas City sauce. There are also mustard and vinegar sauces.Toasting the buns for the sandwiches would be a welcome addition. Our two lunches of a sandwich and side each and a tip was only $30.I recommend this place for a quick BBQ meal.“

“Upon entering, we was wowed by the decor! clean, modern and inspiring! We met Will who was eager to take our order and help us to decide. The potato salad I was blown away by because to me, it tasted like the perfect potato salad I've been looking for! We was so happy with all food ordered. The Wings kept smacking me in the nose and smelt soooo delicious! My Husband who is very particular about Wings ate them up happily! Service, the environment and the food 5 stars!!! You gotta order or visit!“

“Best K BBQ in the area!! Authentic ban chan side dishes and seasonings, organic and fresh produce, high quality and generous portion of food.

Catering, authentic Korean ban chan side dishes, desserts, etc. available immediately next door to the restaurant.

Nondescript area so use Google Maps closely. Ample parking available in front, side, and back.“

“We had such a great experience working with this team! Just look at all the awards they have won and there is a reason why. They are prideful in their work, attend to detail, keep you informed, and are pleasant to work with from quotation to event! I would do it all over again and pick them each time! I love going family business and local and this checked those boxes for me! Thank you Helga’s for the memorable night and cherished memories. You helped make it al possible!“

“Absolutely the most delicious Ox Tail Stew!!! Honestly everything on the menu is awesome. 5 🌟 peeps.“

“My recent visit to Sari Filipino Kusina with my son was nothing short of a delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere drew us in. The restaurant combines modern decor with touches of Filipino culture, creating a setting that’s both stylish and cozy.

The food is the real highlight. We started with lumpiang shanghai, which was perfectly crisp and packed with flavor, a promising start to our meal. I went for the adobo, which was tender, rich, and savory, while my son chose the sinigang, a soup that had just the right balance of tanginess and warmth. The lechon kawali we shared was incredibly crispy outside, with melt-in-your-mouth tenderness inside—a true treat.

Dessert was a shared halo-halo, and it was fantastic. It’s a layered, colorful mix of flavors and textures that ended the meal on a refreshing note.

Sari Filipino Kusina is a gem for anyone who loves authentic Filipino flavors or wants to try something new. Our meal here was not just food—it was a shared experience that we’ll remember fondly. Highly recommended!“

“Really great place to bring kids. Food is delicious, especially the bbq chicken!!!! Large space, good for groups. Has both an indoor and outside space. It was difficult to know if the servers would come to our table or if we should go up to order - seemed a bit of both was true.“

“Great beef intestines, so flavored with the special sauce. The all you can eat is well deserved, good quality of meat and small plates; they changed grill plate frequently. Good service, good price. No recommend the seafood pancake since there is Zero seafood no flavor.“

“Wonderful service and equally wonderful food ! So glad to have good quality Korean food in our local community!“

“We had a delicious meal tonight. The Bibimbap was very good! The service was great too. We’ll definitely come back!“

“Great food i come many times“

“Delicious soup and side dishes. Their pork hansang rice dish is superb. I don't know what seasoning they put on it, but it's so flavorful. I definitely recommend it.Their seafood pancake was good too with good amounts of seafood in it. Wish it came with some sauce but I used the sauce that comes with the entrees“

“They were quick and the food was awesome“

“Great food Just the right amount of spices“
