Restaurants near West Springfield

“Review is for the new PUPATELLA off Slater's Lane in Alexandria VA. It's in my neighborhood so we walked. Noticed limited # spot parking lot, minimal if any street parking. Went on opening day around 1145 am; got seated right away but servers were largely absent throughout stay. Took ~10 min for someone to show up to take our drink order and food order. Seasonal specials on the menu but not actually available to order yet. Went with soft drinks, margarita pizza, and brussels sprouts app. Food was fabulous and served quickly. No server appeared to check on us or to refill drinks; I believe the marketing manager ended up checking on us and helped out. Also no server to bring bill so we closed the tab at their point of sale system. Decor is plain; hopefully they will add some art to the walls at some point. Two unisex bathrooms were clean. Very narrow pathway to get to them past the indoor seating and the bar seating. Large folks and wheelchairs will struggle to navigate to the bathrooms. The usable space inside the narrow building is limited so not sure if this is a fixable issue. Patio seating is a mix of low tables and high tables/chairs, assortment of non-adjustable small umbrellas to block sun, looked like they could be moved around. Clearly dog-friendly, I saw at least three water bowls in use or available to use. Saw a lot of vehicle traffic on Slater's, but did not hear the traffic on Slater's or the GW parkway. Most tables inside and out were occupied; the music over the speakers and the ambient patron noise was loud enough to drown out traffic. There is an access road and line of trees between the restaurant and GW parkway which helps to minimize the traffic view. Food was worth another visit, though you should give them time to upskill their servers and perhaps hire more servers. Given the parking issue and the limited seating inside and out, I suspect this location is more suited for walking locals and carry-out than travelling diners. This location isn't really suited to be a destination dining experience.”

“Delicious and plenty of choices for vegetarians because of the options available. The service is great. It is pleasant but quite chilly. Bring a sweater,”

“I got a small Ledo pizza with extra sauce and good ol' Grandma's DELICIOUS lasagna. To split with my girlfriend and it was all fantastic. I've had a number of items there and never been disappointed.”

“This is a really good spot. The food is fresh and the Mac and Cheese is awesome. The staff is very friendly. Prices are fair. Family friendly as well. Very clean. LGBTQ friendly”

“I have been coming to this location every day, for the last 6 years! I absolutely ADORE the baristas! They always go above and beyond, and they treat my kids like family! I went there tonight with a flyer of a missing girl #findjholie and not only did they let me put it on their board, front and center, they offered their sincere concern! Thank you, Starbucks! You set the bar for all other Starbucks’!”

“A good meeting place to catch up with friends...”

“Probably the best McDonalds I've been too. I always order via the kiosk and whereas the other local McDonalds gives an insulting amount of sauce, this one gives a good amount. In addition, I have had great customer service experience from them in the past. The fact that they are open 24/7 also really helps since my job keeps very late hours and I am too tired to cook sometimes.”

“This location has friendly staff and is very clean. However, this location can be sometimes tricky with getting out of the parking lot due to the heavy volume of other stores and a no turn on red light.”

“Service was great, very attentive. Food is always on point 😉”

“That Fresh salad is everything!! All in all, we love Mikes!!”

“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.”

“The food here was delicious and amazing but what made the experience unforgettable was the service! If you are celebrating something special or you just want to have a wonderful dining experience, Bistrol L'hermitage is where you want to be.”
