“Settle Down Easy in Oakton, VA is not only a great place for food and drink but they believe in giving back to our community. The GC Marshall Baseball team was able to have a successful fundraiser because of their incredible generosity, excellent service in addition to tasty food and brew. They didn’t even mind when the team provided a little of their own music! We will definite be back to relax and enjoy some MARCH MADNESS and baseball. Thank you Settle Down Easy of Oakton.“
“Everything we had here was fantastic! Super cute wine bar. Service was outstanding! Ash was our server- Ash was very knowledgeable about the wine selection and made great recommendations. We tried the scallops, halibut, tuna tacos, grits, and the cheeseboard. We will definitely be backDietary restrictions: Gluten Free“
“We really enjoyed our meal. The wines are delicious and such a huge variety of regions represented. The service is always friendly and helpful. Glyn was our server and she was pleasant and offered some great suggestions for wines. We had Ian come by our table and we were so surprised he remembered us from other visits. We shared the house salad, the tri tip, and the spicy sausage pizza. Everything was delicious! The manager also stopped by our table to see if we needed anything and introduced herself. It made for a warm, let's make this a regular hangout type of spot. We will definitely be back. On other visits we have tried zucchini chips, the pastas, and the charcuterie. You can't go wrong!“
“Been quite a bit for lunch and dinners and will go back. Tapas piled high and I have not found a dish I do not like. My favorite is to get the espresso choc cake to go (and after a few glasses of wine) and go to the park right across the street.“

“I've been coming to Vino Volo since it opened (in the other terminal) and have always been very happy with good wines by the glass and interesting small plates, but especially because of the staff: great service by knowledgeable professionals, whatever you're paying them, pay them more! However, the menu desperately needs a refresh (hasn't changed in YEARS, boo!) and please stop playing that horrible music at top volume, I always have to ask staff to turn it down because it's so unpleasant and difficult to get work done in between flights.“
“I like this place. The food is good, with vegan and gluten-free options!(I have had *better* Thai food. All of Finn Thai's curry has fish sauce in it and can not be made vegan=no 5 star rating.)(Now that I think of it.... when I say I have had better Thai food, maybe it's because I'm comparing it to curry dishes I have had elsewhere, when here I was unable to have curry. Maybe I just like curry better? Lol. I'm just trying to be completely honest!)The food always comes out super fast!! Like, always surprisingly fast!! On Valentine's Day, for example, we went before the dinner rush (there was only one other table seated in the restaurant when we arrived), and without buying alcohol we were in and out in under 45 minutes! (I mention not having alcohol because if we were also taking time to enjoy drinks, it probably would have taken longer)Takeaway: In my experience, great for a quick *real* meal. Early dinner times always seem like a great time to go/not busy.Will be back. This is the closest restaurant to where I currently live with vegan/gluten-free options.Vegetarian options: Definitely ask!! A lot of dishes don't necessarily have tofu listed as a protein option, but in my experience, they are happy to use tofu instead of meat.Dietary restrictions: They have gluten-free and vegan options! All of the curry has fish sauce in it, which sucks as that is my favorite Thai dish. I don't remember everything being labeled well on the menu, but definitely ask! The servers are always knowledgeable, in my experience, and can help guide you to something appropriate for you!I have not been "glutened" here!Parking: The parking lot directly in front of the restaurant is small, but every time I visited, there were plenty of spots. The restaurant is in the back of a large shopping/business area, so there is plenty of free parking around, but if it is busy, you may have to park a bit farther.Wheelchair accessibility: There are steps up to the restaurant. Like... more than just a few steps.“
“Food was excellent as always. Our server was very slow even when we were finished and the restaurant was pretty empty it took forever to bring our bill, pick up the credit cards, and return with the receipts for signature. Our server may have had tables in the bar but did not appear to be serving anyone else in the main dining area“

“On our inaugural visit, we were blown away by the incredible food and the exceptional service from our server, Ricky. His friendliness and thorough understanding of the menu made our dining experience even more enjoyable. We'll certainly be returning for another lunch or dinner soon.“

“Found this shop through a google search to pick up a gift on my way to visit some work colleauges and was not disappointed. I'm visiting from Canada and wanted to find a shop with some unique choices and was very happy with the service and recommendations provided! I'm also sad I don't live closer because they had a nice selection of Russian River Valley wines I would have loved to try.“
“Food was well presented Ambiance, what's not to enjoy. You are surrounded by rows of organized wine racks of varying prices and options. The seats are a bit narrow. The service by Sean was unparalleled. His exemplary one man show ....... knowledge, timing, wit & overall charm was a perfect pairing to our experience.“
“This is really a Mediterranean place, with typical options. They even asked if I wanted ice in the water, nice touch! I had a wrap with lamb. The lamb was hit or miss, some chunks tender and some quite chewed. My wife's falafel wrap was wonderful. The coffee and water were great.“
“Out of all the steak frites I’ve had in my 20 years of living in Northern Va, this is by far the best. The pear and prosciutto flatbread is also a must-have. It’s refreshing to see a wine/whiskey bar execute their food to such a high level. Parallel is a better, more comfortable version of Cooper’s Hawk.“
“Our experience as first timers at The Wine Kitchen was phenomenal! Kayla did a great job suggesting wine selections and items off the menu, and was an awesome server! If you visit, you will have to consider trying the meat and cheese board and cacio e pepe pasta – both were absolutely delicious. We will DEFINITELY be back! :)“
“This is the pricier Thai place in the area. I would just get takeout next time due to strong smell from neighboring nail salon. Staff was friendly but one of Thier phones behind the counter from where we were sitting was ringing for 30 minutes which was distracting to my table.“
“I visited this place with my husband today and we loved it. We were greeted cordially by Laura who helped us with seating and walked us through the menu. We were later greeted by Jodi who recommended a wine, "Susmaniello Avoglia", which we absolutely loved and got bottles for our home too!! If you like a wine that is not too sweet nor too dry then this is a perfect one. We also ordered olives and a cheese board to go with it and that was good as well.Overall, we loved our visit and a big thanks to Jodi for answering all our questions and recommending just the right wine based on my vague description!! Will definitely visit this place again.“
“Shoe's Cup and Cork is a cozy gem nestled in the heart of Leesburg, where coffee culture meets culinary creativity. From their artisanal brews to their delectable brunch offerings, it's the perfect spot to kick back, relax, and savor the flavors of a locally loved establishment.“
“Amazing experience, thoughtful staff who are attentive and listen. I ordered a 3 course meal with steak and cheese cake. My gf ordered a honey garlic chicken with amazing french fries. I asked for the potato early, and I got it. But then they accidently gave me another potato, I was told that I can enjoy another potato and that I won't be charged. At the end they gave a thoughtful 2 cheese cake for me and my gf. Great service and will come back to this place, and will be bringing my family here. 10/10“

“From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by an ambiance that is nothing short of gorgeous. The rustic yet elegant decor sets the stage for a memorable outing, whether you're there for a tasting or a meal.The wine tastings at Cooper's Hawk are not only enjoyable but also educational. The knowledgeable staff guide you through a selection of wines, each sip a journey through different varietals and flavors.After indulging in tastings, we settled down for a meal, accompanied by more wine, of course. The Spiced Winter Wine stood out among the offerings, warming both body and soul with its delightful blend of spices.As for the food, it was a culinary delight from start to finish. I opted for the Blackened Ahi Tuna, and it was a true masterpiece. The tuna was perfectly cooked, with a flavorful blackened crust that gave way to tender, succulent flesh. Each bite was a symphony of taste and texture, leaving me craving more.Overall, Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant exceeded all expectations. With its stunning ambiance, enjoyable tastings, delectable food, and outstanding wine selection, it's a destination worth returning to time and time again.“
“First time at Parallel and we entered on one side, but they seated us in the other building across the walk way which seemed to be quieter. Maybe it was because we had a bigger party. The drinks and food were outstanding. We ordered a bunch of things to try and share and everything was tasty. The steaks were cooked exactly the way we wanted. All of the dishes were great to accompany wine or a drink. We definitely want to come back and check out the brunch menu.“
“The fish celantro stuff was fantastic!The beans were like a runny gravy.The garlic shrimp was served on the shell and very difficult to chew.The phone was in the booth behind me and kept ringing during the meal.I asked them to move it somewhere else, but I don’t think they know English.“
