30 Best Cocktail Bars near Tysons

“Today, after landing at DC Reagan we decided to waste time while waiting for our hotel room at the Archer Tysons to be prepared. While searching AI this restaurant came up so after reading the reviews we decided to visit.

The aesthetic of the restaurant was gorgeous, neither feminine nor masculine but definitely modern and warm. We decided to sit at the bar which was very comfortable and boasted plenty of seating. The bartender/server, Carlos , looked up and saw us and initially didn’t speak ..my husband tapped my leg which is usually an indication to leave but I said let’s give him a chance and boy were we happy we did !

Carlos was fun, courteous, prompt, and extremely knowledgeable during our visit. He gave us his recommendations on drinks, food, and also shared all the specials the company was offering.

Hubby had the Burger and fries and I had the Turkey Burger with sweet potato fries. We also had alcoholic beverages , hubby had a delicious maple old fashioned and I had the blackberry margarita. Everything was cooked to perfection and Carlos put his entire foot in those drinks 🥰!

For dessert I ordered an inflammation Wellness drink because the ingredients looked interesting and it was delicious!

We shared stories of our travels and Carlos shared his experiences in Thailand. The restaurant honored a military discount for me (retired Veteran) and our bill with a 25% tip was about $91

Overall I would say our experience was a 10/10! Restaurant and restrooms were extremely clean, food & drinks were delicious and Carlos was the cherry on top!“

“The entire experience was awesome! We didn’t have reservations, as we just came from a show. They worked us in and the tapas style dining was just what we needed for an upscale, late-night meal. Flavor was out of this world and presentation was art! I’ll definitely be back & highly recommend the ninniku noodles with duck confit. 🤤“

“I recently dined at this establishment, having a late lunch. I was very impressed by the attentiveness/politeness of the staff. I ordered goat curry with garlic naan, and the meal did not disappoint. My server, Danish, was an excellent host and made the experience very warm and welcoming. I will dine here again.“

“We hosted a happy hour there, staff are super fun and nice, food is awesome, cocktail is really good!“

“The food appears... lesser quantity than in DC. The biscuits were smaller, and harder. I saw no bacon. The sausage (pork or chicken) was not "week done" as with the DC restaurant. Also there wasn't any shrimp. I got there at 9:am, and was told reservations were needed. So I Sat at the bar. Def a 3.5 rating on food here“

“Came to Ometeo with my wife for dinner the other night. We got chips and queso, along with fajitas to share. Tony Gomez was our waiter and he did a wonderful job. He was very attentive to all our needs as well as constantly checking up on us. The food was pretty good, but what made the experience was the waiter. If you ever decide to come here make sure to ask for Tony as he will always make sure you’re treated like you’re his own family. Would definitely come back and will recommend to my friends and coworkers.“

“Just an incredible restaurant - amazing food out of this world our server was simply impressive with one month on the job - I can't say enough good things about him. I will always be back !!!“

“Cool little spot on downtown Bethesda - the atmosphere is dimly lit and sophisticated - great energy. The food was great - we had the tostada, beet salad, and grilled shrimp - all of which were delicious. Service was good and we will definitely come back.“

“This is a great venue. I love seeing the century old pre power tool construction techniques (and without nails or screws!), and every seat is close to the stage. There are only a few seats in the balcony where the view is partially blocked by support columns.“

“absolutely delicious and would recommend to anyone!“

“We had a really great dinner experience with their prefix menu, and like other reviews that mentioned, the prefix is really good value. Service was superb as well, the waitress actually grilled the meat for us. They had non alcoholic beverage options. It’s been years since I had bingsoo and cold buckwheat noodles with beef broth so it was very sentimental for me to have those dishes again! Atmosphere was definitely more upscale than a regular Korean bbq restaurant.“

“Great visit for a first timer! Beautiful restaurant, fantastic food and amazing service!“

“The restaurant is surrounded by nature. The staff is friendly, polite, and professional. The menu offers high-quality and original "fine dining" dishes.“

“Excellent dinner and drinks.“

“We've dined at Patsy's American on several occasions and consistently appreciate the quality, service and atmosphere.“

“The Tacos and clam chowder was really good. The frozen Rose’ was good as well. Great service“

“Best rooftop in Bethesda. Beautiful sunsets and fabulous cocktails! 🍸“

“I grabbed eight tacos to go and they were all delicious but what caught me by surprise was the restaurant. Even though I just got takeout, I receive great service and the vibe in here is so fun. This is a perfect place to come for happy hour or dinner or a brunch with the family. I highly recommend it.“

“Can't believe it took me this long to eat here. Definitely worth it. Can't go wrong with anything u pick. The only think that competes with the food is the quality of the drinks. However both of those are outshine by the service. This place definitely makes it onto my standard rotation list.“

“had my daughter’s baby shower there today from 1-4. Ali was superb… “on it” re: everything! Food was great & abundant… juice/champagne bar fabulous & just the perfect size & setup for 30 women. i highly recommend ms. peacock’s! and once again, “Ali” was the best.“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“We ordered delivery so did not experience the atmosphere. The food was delivered piping hot and very flavorful. We ordered steamed dumplings, pad Thai, panang curry, and mango sticky rice. All was excellent. Linjee Thai is my new favorite Thai restaurant. I can't wait to visit for a meal.“

“the food, the service and the drinks are all amazing. loved the decor as well. it is pricey but very shareable. Matt K. was the best server. Made us laugh and had a blast.“

“Pulled pork Mac and cheese and Brussel sprouts is what I had. It was seasoned just right!!! We had a sweet waitress as well. Highly recommend this gem!“

“We’ve been going to SER for several years now especially for family celebrations. The food and service is always excellent. I highly recommended SER for any occasion!“

“Umami 😌🤌🏻🤏🏻 every single dishes is great! The sushi was spot on!! 🍣🍜🍱 Plus first time trying “A5 Wagyu” num num num exceptional service from Thai employees!! I’m so proud of them! He asked me is it my first time here? So Yes! Then he started recommending all of those signature dishes which I was gonna ask him since the first place but he did a very good job beginning with that! Plus he was genuinely kindhearted and care for his guests. The chef(I guess)also delivered food by himself with A5 Wagyu and other stuffs for you! The music also made it a lot more enjoyable! Impressive! Gotta go back!!“

“Great food Butter chicken was particularly good“

“Last night was my husband’s and my first time dining here, and it truly left an impression. One of the first things we loved was the restaurant’s commitment to giving back to the community. As soon as you walk in, there’s a sign explaining how meals are donated to local women’s shelters and how guests and staff can pay it forward by purchasing meals for those in need. Anyone facing a tough time can simply take a ticket from the wall for a prepaid meal such a thoughtful and meaningful concept.

Our server was absolutely phenomenal (I wish I remembered her name! -- She had long red wavy hair). She took the time to walk us through the menu, shared her personal favorites, and recommended several must-try tacos. Let me just say… she did not miss!

Every single bite was bursting with flavor. We tried the birria, Havana, Rus & Gus, and Peruvian chicken tacos, along with the street corn salad and veggies on the side and everything was incredible. From the food to the service to the heart behind the restaurant, this place checks all the boxes.

Safe to say we’ve found a new favorite spot and will absolutely be back.“

“ABSOLUTELY phenomenal. If you’re even thinking about trying Ned’s New England Deck, just go! You won’t regret it. The owner, Steve, is so personable and you can tell he genuinely cares about his business. He made an effort to talk to us (even our 4-year-old), which was really sweet and made the whole experience feel more personal. I also loved how he hyped up his staff, you can tell they’re appreciated. The food though… wow. The brown butter lobster roll was seriously amazing! The soft, flavorful bread and the lobster was so buttery and sweet. I’ve had lobster rolls before (even at the beach), and this one honestly beats them. The fried fish melts in your mouth and the truffle fries are addicting. My family and I left so impressed. The food was incredible, and Steve’s kindness just made it even better. He even shared how to make one of their sauces at home, which was such a nice gesture. So again, thank you Steve and staff for an amazing dinner & becoming our go-to seafood spot. We can’t wait to try more and checkout the playroom upstairs!“
