Met some friends for dinner and drinks. Our drinks hit the spot. However, we felt that our meals missed their mark. Service was solid and I love the setup of the restaurant. Only other complaint is that our party of four was seated by a family where the kids kept standing,playing, and leaning into our booth. Made for an unpleasant distraction.

I wish I could give this place more stars. I love that they have a good selection of gluten free entrees. We have been here 4 times now and every single time our food comes to us room temperature, not hot. I don't understand why because the restaurant is not crowded at all during the times that we go. It's also inconsistent in seasoning. One time we ordered a dish and it was slightly bland. The next time we ordered the same dish it was too salty. Overall the food has been just ok, nothing spectacular. As someone who has to be gluten free, I understand that our options are limited and that's why I really wish I could rate this place higher but the food quality does not justify a higher rating. Especially for the price that you're paying, with the exception of the Bag of Donuts which is amazing, everything else is just not worth it.

I gave it a three because the service was kind of weird. The servers would pass plates over the guest to my right when they should have walked around to put the plate directly in front of me. It seems like common serving etiquette but this happened with several of the servers and was just very odd. The food was good but again, the customizations were requested were brought out a couple minutes after food was served and the items were requested a second time. They cleared part of the table and when dessert came, we didn't have utensils but made do with our hands (donuts with a spread). The place is really nice, bathrooms were clean, I loved the scent of the hand soap too. I'll be back. I figure service just had an off day. 3 seems too low but 4 is a little too high for this visit.

I've already given them a review and I said I loved it but we went back recently and they changed their mai tai recipe and now it is absolutely vile. They used to make the best mai tais and we would look forward to them (usually go there FOR them) and now it's just disgusting! Really disappointed!

Dog friendly and ample outdoor seating. Excellent menu, but a bit pricey, even for NoVA. Front of house is a little scattered but wait staff and kitchen are squared away. I've had enough from their menu to tell you they're extremely consistently delicious.If you save room for dessert and don't like anything on their menu, try abbots frozen custard next door, best ice cream you've ever had.

I think this place is totally underrated! The food, service and atmosphere were all fantastic tonight. I had the scallops special and they were exquisite! My side garden salad was also amazing. My Fiancee had a burger that was delectable. We shared the spicy shrimp appetizer and the shrimp were perfectly sized and spiced! Wow. Can’t wait to return!!!

Our food was amazing. Last night was my first time there and I wasn't sure what we were going to be expecting. Our server Amanda was amazing. She told us she just had started there and we thought she had worked there for awhile. She was well aware of the food on the menu and she brought our food and drinks fast. We definitely will recommend our friends and family to this place and to make sure they ask for Amanda!
As someone with allergies, this place is the best. Very allergy friendly, and I feel so safe eating there. The food is fantastic, fresh, and extremely tasty. The ambiance is gorgeous and so aesthetically pleasing.

Great food and drinks. Best service is at the bar (ask for Steven and their mixed drinks are fun. A relaxing and casual way to end a long and stressful work week. My husband and I come here probably every other Friday.

Andyyy was the *most incredible* server for my husband and I. Despite the fact that it was Valentine’s Day, which is arguably one of the busiest restaurant days of the year, she was absolutely flawless in her politeness and execution of her service. I would 1000% recommend coming to this restaurant, especially so long as Andyyy is your server and bartender.Dietary restrictions: This restaurant is an excellent option for those with gluten free dietary restrictions or celiac’s!!

Great food, phenomenal service. Menu changes regularly. It's a bit pricey, but worth it.
