New American Restaurants near Springfield, VA

“On Friday night, 8 coworkers met up for dinner. Service was attentive. I ordered the jambalaya with rice. It came out with a large amount of white rice which was not in portion to the seafood/sauce and I was disappointed that no other side such as bread/cornbread came with it. It was just ok and not too spicy and the rice was between nutty & mushy. I've eaten here several times and will do so again but didn't enjoy this dish.“

“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.“

“I was in Tyson for work at the mall and decided to stop by 52. Hands down, the best filet mignon I’ve had in a long time. Perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor.
Do not skip the mashed potatoes — absolutely the best I’ve ever had. 10/10.
The service at the bar was outstanding. Professional, attentive, and welcoming.
I’ll be back every time I’m in Tyson. Highly recommend.“

“FireFly continues to prove why it’s one of my favorite dining experiences. From the moment you walk through the door, the staff sets the tone with warm, personalized service. The greeting is genuine, attentive, and immediate and that same level of care carries throughout the entire visit.

Customer service is truly exceptional here. Servers check in at all the right times, ensure everything is to your liking, and make you feel valued as a guest without being intrusive. It’s rare to find hospitality executed this consistently.

The food remains outstanding flavorful, well-prepared, and reliable. FireFly is, without exaggeration, a 20 out of 10. It never misses.

Yesterday’s experience was no different: amazing from start to finish. This is a restaurant that understands service, quality, and consistency. Highly recommend.“

“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.“
