50 Best American Restaurants near Annandale

“Salmon salad was very good and fresh~! The salmon was not fully cooked and asked to cook it again. The house gave me more salad with fully cooked salmon. And all waiters and waitresses were kind and professional. Will recommend to friends and family.“

“I have been going to cue for many years, and I have never had a bad moment here. All the bartenders and staff are extremely welcoming! The most important part is they remember you as a person…not as a customer! I highly recommend visiting this wonderful spot.“

“Wonderful Diner, great servers!! Good food. Music way too loud outside… a shame one can’t talk without shouting. I do love Elvis though!!“

“I came for brisket! The flavors were there, they lose 1pt because it was slightly dry. The beaaanns get a 5 with jazz hands. It was a party in my mouth. Everyone else enjoyed their meal. The service was on point. They have a parking lot with somewhat limited spots. I would definitely come back.“

“We were celebrating a birthday, and asked for a quiet table, and we were seated in the Wine Room, and it was perfect. We shared a calamari appetizer, and had halibut and crab cakes for the entrees. We shared key lime pie for dessert, and the restaurant provided a special birthday dessert. Service was excellent, and the food was delicious.“

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

“We had a private event and everything was spectacularly good. Kudos to the professional service. Outstanding service staff. The food was so delicious. All complimented the meal. Everything, and I cannot thank the entire state that made our event so memorable and lovely, was excellent. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: You must request but there are options and all were delicious“

“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.“

“Buzzy place, quite busy for Sunday brunch. The cronut was fresh and delicious. The gravlax mezze plate was unusual which is why I ordered it. The food was good. But the music blasting spoiled the experience for me - and I was solo so wasn't trying to chat, which would have been impossible to hear anything!“

“First time dining here and loved it. Brought my wife for her birthday and they personalized the menu and brought her a decadent dessert on the house. Calamari breading is immaculate and Wagyu tartare was done very well with some micro greens. Our waiter claimed the duck was the best he’s had and truthfully it was in the highest echelon. The serving of lobster with ravilolini was generous. Such yummy dessert too (had the pineapple mojito). Was a little skeptical given it’s in Falls Church in an office building but pleasantly pleased ?“

“First time to patronize Red's and did so with a large group. Planning support, service, and food all superb. Great value for money!“

“I love Great American Restaurants and can always count on Patsy's American for a perfect casual dining experience. The comfortable seating and airy space with high ceilings give us a unique experience that other restaurants don't provide. The food, drinks, and desserts are always perfect; even a simple hot fudge sundae is delicious at this restaurant. Nothing can go wrong when we dine at Patsy's American.Parking: Although the restaurant has a parking space in front of the premises, it fills up quickly. An adjacent free parking garage is available.“

“Kiana was a great bartender for me and my best friend. I’ll be back because she made our experience great!“

“Eggs & Sushi is a hidden gem!! I've driven down Fullerton a bunch of times and just never noticed it until today. We went ahead and checked it out for breakfast since it wasn't quite lunchtime - the food taste and quality was amazing! We had a egg and cheese on a bagel, a breakfast burrito, and a smoothie.The service is fantastic, everyone working behind the counter is so friendly.The food was prepared quickly and was hot and fresh. They also offer smoothies, assorted beverages, coffee, espresso drinks, and even have beers and sake. The atmosphere is like a really cute little deli with a few tables and a sushi bar.The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions, we're definitely planning to come back for breakfast sometime and want to try their Japanese lunch options. I'd definitely recommend checking it out!“

“From the moment we stepped into Home Town, the staff made us feel so welcomed. The food is amazing, came out in a timely fashion, and they were portioned just right. We will definitely be coming back.“

“It was definitely busy, but not overcrowded for Mother’s Day. The service was nothing short of excellent. We got our drinks from the bar exceptionally quick. They were fantastic as well. We were never without anything we needed as the wait staff was extremely attentive. Two managers came up to our table to apologize for the “food delay” except none of us felt we were waiting long. To them, it was too long and that shows how much they pride themselves in service. To us it felt like a normal day at a busier restaurant. Our food was outstanding. Everything cooked perfectly and tasted amazing. Overall, it was a great dining experience and I will definitely be back.“

“Great placement highly recommend.Come here for lunch occasionally, always impressed by the service, atmosphere, and food.ServiceThe hostess was excellent, but what makes it special was as we were waiting for her to return (after she had just seated people ahead of us), the phone at her desk started ringing. Not missing a beat, she answered and politely put them on hold, and then seated us! Yes!!! Finally someone who understands you don’t answer a call and start talking when you already have customers standing in front of you of you! Our server Kelsey was also outstanding, introducing herself and taking care of us quickly and efficiently, very polite…kudos to her and the business!FoodAlways very flavorful and a wide variety of choices. The two of us ordered one lunch special of meatball and baby kale flatbread with asparagus soup, and a Maui Tuna Crunch salad. The flatbread was amazing, the sliced meatballs very flavorful, and the asparagus soup excellent. They do offer a gluten sensitive flatbread if desired. The Maui salad was also excellent, with perfectly seared tuna, but had a very large salad portion. Only small down was my wife asked for the dressing on the side, and it came in two separate very tiny portions, maybe a tablespoon each at best…for a huge salad. Had to ask for more, and our server again brought two more tiny portions, which was then enough. Not sure how it would have come if we had not asked for the dressing on the side, one seemed to be for the tuna, the other for the actual salad itself. Either way, very good, but a very large salad, a bit too much for lunch.Again, very much enjoy coming here.Will I come back…absolutely!Would I recommend …most definitely!“

“Shrimp and grits were so good!!“

“The food was amazing. The burger was really nice. I tried more than one burger and they were all delicious. However, while I was taking a picture at the brewery, I found out that the malt expired in 2023. I have attached a video, dated on 14 May 2024.“

“The service was immaculate. Really warm and kind people who were efficient and smart. PK was our waiter and did a great job. He left us all with a smile on our face. Excellent.“

“Wonderful homemade food! So delicious. Cozy atmosphere and amazing smells!“

“Love the Art and reasonable pricing“

“We THOROUGHLY enjoyed our lunch at One Bar and Grill. Service and atmosphere were great, but if I could give the food 6/5 stars I would. We tried the fritters, salmon filet, and burger and they were all excellent. I can't wait to come back!“

“Good food and great service from Yodi“

“they had a really hot guy working there with a little bracelet on what is his name but overall good food.“

“Amazing atmosphere and some of the best cocktails in the area!!!“

“Great find! Good music and great food!“

“The ambiance is a beautiful mix of soft and masculine, the views are amazing, and the staff is top tier! Maria was out lovely server and she was wonderful! It was my husbands bday and she made sure he was well taken care of! Her attention to detail and time management was well appreciated. She recommended the raspberry shaved ice for dessert and it was heavenly! Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“While you may luck out with street parking nearby, most will be able to find parking within a couple of blocks. You'll usually have to pay but that's city life (I guess). This place is worth paying for parking as the food is pretty good. Service here is decent, with a setting made for hanging out with friends. It's comfortable, casual, and can also be good enough to enjoy with family. Again, food is pretty good. My wife went light with spinach artichoke dip (this was very average), while I had the schnitzel (very good) with smashed potatoes, and my son had the jambalaya pasta (he liked). All in all a positive experience.“

“been going there for over 25 years!Great food!.Jack Daniels shrimp is always a hit!“

“This place shines. We were a group of six tonight. What a joy to be treated so superbly. Our servers were attentive, informative and most pleasant. We were an energetic group but nothing this experienced group couldn't handle. Our drinks, wine, seafood, vegetables, meats and giant chocolate cake were delicious.We could have easily stayed for another hour solving many of the earths issues but, alas, it was closing time.We left happy, well-fed, and content.Thank you for a delightful experience.“

“Mostly very positive, per usual, for the Wine House. But, a big negative for this visit was the level of noise created by the malfunctioning air conditioning system. While I understand that the repair is 'on the way', it still was a real detriment to overall ambiance......“

“Just had the chicken sampler with 4 sides. It was delicious and more than enough to feed 4 hungry people. Will definitely order from them again. Joann Levine“

“Delicious!We visited on saturday lunch and were seated after few minutes of a wait.We ordered the wild mushroom flatbread, chicken benedict and the tuna salad.Everything was amazing!Flatbread had nice truffle aroma with ample mushroom toppings, tuna salad was fresh and cooked just right, but wow the biscuits on the benedict blew me away!!Service was cordial and straight to the point.Will return to try more menus“

“We’re new to the area and picked a brunch spot near by, and we’re so grateful we picked Maple Ave! This restaurant is owned and solely operated by a couple, and it’s shown with the passion they put in their dishes and service. The menu is seasonal depending on local farm ingredients, and decision with a Lithuanian twist on dishes. The brunch comes as a $26 prix-fixe option and has an appetizer and main course dish- great amount of food and quality for that price! We’ll definitely be back“

“Fairfax Dr. that ends in its black has about 100 or more metered parking spaces and more than 50% was vacant on Saturday at 9:00am. Bottled/canned drinks available. Small iced coffee took less than 1 minute to be ready. I was able to enjoy my own music with open ear headset but I had to walk outside when I received a call because the caller couldn't hear me well.“

“The food and variety of choices were optimal. We've been here several times and each time we picked something different with no disappointment. Definitely a must try or just make it your Sunday breakfast or lunch spot.Kid-friendliness: Super awesome vibe and friendliness. Our kid loved it“

“We decided to do lunch at Ted’s Bulletin. The ambience of the restaurant was very nice and modern. The portion sizes are large, prices are reasonable and the food taste delicious.“

“Amazing gluten free food. Delicious. I thought I would never have onion rings again“

“This is a very unassuming restaurant tucked away in an old shopping center. Doesn't look like much inside or out, but the food is fabulous. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, from appetizers to desserts. Wonderful wine list. The tables are well spaced for comfort and privacy the atmosphere is relaxed, and you never feel rushed. There is no kid's menu. Opened for dinner only.“

“Burtons is such a blessing for those with allergies! Staff are highly trained, and everything is labeled so carefully! Every server has been top notch and the food is amazing!“

“Great food and service was excellent.“

“We had a lovely brunch on our recent stay in Georgetown! The owner & the man who waited on us couldn’t have been any nicer! Can’t wait to come back for dinner next time we’re in town! Such a wonderful menu as well!“

“Nice setting, thought the food was ok. Oysters were decent though I did have a really sharp piece of shell that thank goodness I didn’t swallow. Not the best if you have a dairy intolerance. Ended up having the burger with no bun and no cheese, was originally told I couldn’t have the burger and had to choose something else. Wasn’t offered a lot of help on the intolerance front.“

“I had the best server I’ve had in a real long time. His name was Bikal and he was efficient with our waters, food and checks and just overall great server and nice guy. He made my silver diner experience better.“

“Food was so so good, as always...Theisman's is the definition of consistency. The calamari was excellent, all the entree's were excellent and the dessert the same. Yum! Also consistent was the pleasant but bare-minimum service. If you'd rather be on your phone, at least leave the water bottle on the table so we stop running out. Honestly, at this point just put qr codes on the tables and let us order ourselves lol: it's the food runners and bussers who stand out for their great service and professionalism every time we go! Thanks again for a great meal!“

“Food was awesome! Atmosphere was warm! Wait staff extremely attentive. We LOVE that it is farm to table, they have their own bee hives and grow their own herbs! Menu was unique and the octopus appetizer was SO crazy good!“

“We visited Georgetown for the first time. We asked a local person where to eat and he recommended Clyde’s. We were not disappointed!“

“Union Burger w/ fries and a house pickle. $15. Not bad for Arlington. Tastes great! Will be back for sure!“
