“I absolutely love the food at BGR!! The burgers are simply the BEST I have ever had and so JUICY!! With my burger I got the garlic parmesan fries and a milkshake which were very good. I always tell my friends and coworkers every time I dine at BGR. I love the rustic look inside BGR and the classic album covers posted on the walls as well.Parking: Typical shopping center parking lot Always plenty of parking whenever I dine at BGR.“
“The hard part is parking but there is a parking garage across the street. This is for eating outside so if the weather is good then it’s great to catch a quick bite. Service is a cashier or kiosk, but remember, it’s a quick bite with friends. The food is good but can get a little messy ( mostly sandwiches), but there’s a public restroom nearby to wash your hands. Both the Virginia honey butter chicken sandwich and duck fat fries are flavorful.“
“Ballston Local is not just a restaurant; it's a beacon of culinary delight, casting a warm and welcoming glow over the neighborhood. With its super friendly service and an atmosphere as inviting as a family gathering, this spot is a testament to the joy of shared plates and hearty conversations.Our culinary journey at Ballston Local was nothing short of a gastronomic festival, celebrating the finest in casual dining with a twist of sophistication. The Mama's Meatballs, nestled in herbed ricotta and accompanied by perfectly grilled garlic bread, were so tender and flavorful as if every bite whispers a secret recipe passed down through generations, served with a dollop of love.The Caprese Crostini was a symphony of flavors, harmonizing the saltiness of prosciutto with the freshness of tomato and arugula, all elevated by a drizzle of balsamic reduction that danced on the palate. It wasn't just an appetizer; it was an aria, sung by the ingredients in perfect pitch.Pizza lovers, rejoice, for the Sausage & Roni Pizza is a masterpiece of dough, cheese, and cured meats. The blend of pepperoni, Italian sausage, mozzarella, parmesan, and basil was a testament to the power of simple ingredients coming together to create something magical. Each slice was a ticket to an Italian countryside.The Italian Pork Store Special sandwich was a hearty homage to the classic Italian deli experience, with layers of prosciutto, sopressatta, ham, and fresh mozzarella, accented by roasted peppers and arugula, then kissed with vinaigrette. It was a hearty handheld feast that transported us straight to the streets of Rome, one savory bite at a time.And then, there was the Blumont Burger, a burger behemoth that stood tall and proud. The caramelized onions, gorgonzola, arugula, and bacon came together in a beautiful, messy, glorious union, all slathered in burger sauce that could only be described as "nectar of the gods." It was the kind of burger that demands your attention, commanding the stage with the poise of a seasoned actor. I'm not usually a fan of blue cheeses, but I would come back for this.The beverage menu at Ballston Local was a parade of liquid joy. From a beer and wine list that is both satisfying and inviting to a fun and tasty cocktail menu that sparked conversation and laughter like the "Spa Day" made with gin, lavender simple syrup, and lime juice sparkling with gold flakes, every sip was a celebration of good taste and great company.Overall, Ballston Local, in essence, is more than a restaurant--It's a place where every dish is a discovery, every drink a delight, and every visit a return to a place where you're always welcome.“
“Been here twice now and I'm obsessed! I tried the animal the first time and honey butter tots. Both are a 10/10! However the animal is HUGE and to be honest all the sandwiches are pretty big so definitely worth your penny. 2nd time I came, I got the Abe foreman (sausage) and the cinnamon sugar tots. My boyfriend loved them so much he had me go back up to get more! Cashiers are always nice, even when it's busy. The National Landing is such a cute concept with easy access to great food and drink options!“
“Really delicious, cat-themed restaurant with the same vibe as its counterpart, Lost Dog Cafe. My burger was juicy and flavorful and the cocktails were spectacular — pricey — but super fresh and creative.Vegetarian options: All burgers come with a vegetarian option and most of the other sandwiches are riffs on a grilled cheese.Parking: There is a small parking lot out front, but the spaces are a bit tight.“
“Came here for just a shot after work and ended up in a great places with great food.My bartender dimitri was honestly the best. He took care of me and my friends the whole time one of the best servers/bartenders I’ve had yet. I’ll definitely be back!“
“I'm sooo in love with this place!!! I first learned about them while I was door-dashing one late night and decided to give them a try!!! I ordered some chicken wings all flats, well done & extra wet. And to my surprise these have to have been some of the best chicken wings ever!!! Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere and they also deliver!!We're all so caught up at ordering at these corporate places that we forget to give these small businesses a try!! But trust and believe you will not be disappointed!! And no I am in no way affiliated with this restaurant. Just a frequent shopper. Oh yeah and btq, they make their own ranch and blue cheese deeping sauce, not those sauces that come out of the packets.“
“Great customer service! We tried a few different sandwiches and everything was delicious and reasonably priced. The burger and the BLT-ish were our favorites. The service was excellent! We had an issue placing our order online through the Inkind app, but the woman that helped us handled it quickly, asked questions to see how they could better handle Inkind orders for other customers in the future and was friendly and attentive. I meant to ask her name but forgot. She was working the evening of 3/9 at the register. That kind of service is extremely rare these days so it was refreshing and appreciated.“
“This crisp, clean diner-inspired eatery is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. A great stop for lunch or a cup of joe and a breakfast sandwich!They did a stellar job with the Nashville Chicken Sandwich we got (and the french fries are great too). The french toast we got was a highlight - give it a try!Vegetarian options: French Toast“
“Loved their burgers.But they always forget to make the shake. I shouldn't have to remind them, and if I finish my meal and remind someone his priority should be to get my shake, not do other stuff. And if I have to remind you a second time, the same.“
“The Cowboy Cafe is a fantastic spot for both dinner and Happy Hour. I visited on a Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised to discover their half-price burger deal, making it an even more enjoyable experience. This local Arlington hangout offers a welcoming atmosphere and delicious food, especially their burgers which are a must-try. The combination of tasty dishes and great deals make Cowboy Cafe a popular choice for locals looking to unwind and have a good time. Whether you're stopping by for a casual meal or to enjoy their Happy Hour specials, Cowboy Cafe is sure to leave you satisfied and eager to return for more. If you're in the area, don't miss the opportunity to check out this gem of a place--it's a definite winner in my book!“
“I live close by and was craving for a good burger for dinner. I decided to try out ted’s because I never tried bison meat before. It was spectacular especially the service because I was not wearing the best clothes since it was a last minute decision and the restaurant was about to close. I was expecting a not-so good service because of it but Fred was amazing. He told us about the history of the menu and I came back the next day.“
“I was pleasantly surprised at how good this spot was! I got one of their regular cheeseburgers and it was really good. I did a pick up order but the inside was clean and there's tons of seating. The burger 9/10 - meaty and delicious also filling The string fries - they weren't super skinny but still very delicious 8/10 The service was good, my food was ready on time. Overall, great lunch spot! I'll definitely be going back. Also, the prices aren't too crazy depending on the type of burger you order.“
“I love this place or al least their foot and menu! Hot dogs are amazing, there are many different varieties of how they are dressed and they are good. I had the German sausage of this type, smaller than expected but fantastic. Generous with sauerkraut. I also had the strawberry smoothie Wich was excellent. Indoor seating is okay, not great and was not clean on the tables or seats, l have to ask them clean it. However, they were happy to do so. There is parking available a little light. So l give the food a 5 assuming the niche they are in. They also have delicious burgers and fries. 3 for atmosphere/seating/comfort and service l definitely recommend it“
“Big Buns in Arlington, VA is where it's at! The place has this cool vibe going on – you walk in, and you just know you're in for a good time. The food? Man, they've got all kinds of stuff on the menu. Burgers that'll make your mouth water, and they even have this insane Unicorn shake for dessert – it's like something out of a dream. And don't even get me started on the drinks. They've got some seriously killer cocktails that'll knock your socks off. Oh, and did I mention the location? It's smack dab in the middle of Arlington, so it's super easy to get to. And the service? A+. The staff is friendly, and fast. So yeah, if you're in the mood for some good eats and a chill vibe, you gotta hit up Big Buns. Trust me, you won't regret it“
“Excellent. Just as the founders of five guys intended, stepping into any five guys in receiving the quality and service, excellent!They honestly look like they’re all having fun serving food to friends and family.Traveling through the airport and making a stop here will make things even better for you. You will see when you visit.They are representing Five Guys very well.Great job by the whole team.“
“The food was very good. I had the soup if the day. It was a black bean chilli was big pieces of smoked meat and topped with cheese and red onion. Delicious! The collards greens were tender but over seasoned with vinager. I was definitely go back for the chili!“
“The burgers here are some of my favorite of any fast food place. The fries are also really good! This is a good place to go for a quick meal. My only complaint is that there's only one dairy free option for shakes (chocolate), but overall a nice experience.“
“The cafe has good bowls that are tasty and healthy. The service and staff are nice. The market is also convenient for grabbing prepared food quickly. Pro tip: There is a kiosk where you can place your order and pay, but there's actually a fee for using the kiosk. Just like 40-50 cents for my bowl order, FYI .Please like this review if it was helpful :)“
“This is one of my favorite places to eat in Crystal City. Their burgers are solid, but I always go for their Caesar salad. Their herbed fries are really tasty, and their ketchup mayonnaise dipping bar is fantastic. Go on your birthday and you get a free milkshake.“
“It's fast food so nothing much to write about BUT don't even think of stepping out of your car to grab your order leaving your car in front of shake shack. There's a tow truck stationed there where Nordstrom curbside pickup and saw it tow TWO cars away in less than 15 “
“I'm glad to hear that you've had consistently positive experiences at this burger joint! The diverse selection of delicious burgers, generous portions of onion rings, and flavorful milkshakes make it a top choice in the Courthouse area. It's always comforting to have a reliable go-to spot for satisfying burger cravings. If you ever need more dining recommendations or tips, feel free to ask!“
“Five Guys is a comfortable experience as those near my home in NY are so similary to the one in Arlington, VA and in North Port, FL. The service was great, very friendly. The food was delicious as always, fries plentiful and delicious and burgers. I went with my son to the Arlington, VA Five Guys across from our hotel on Wilson Blvd. Hadn't planned to get a burger, just "share" his fries, but of course it's hard to resist the burgers at Five Guys.“

“Overall, my experience at Elevation Burger at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport Terminal 2 was average. I would rate it 3 stars.The Breakfast Burger I ordered was disappointing. It tasted like a leftover burger, as if it had been pre-made and reheated. The flavor was not fresh or enjoyable.In terms of presentation, the burger lacked creativity and was served in a basic manner. It didn't stand out visually, which was a letdown.However, the service at Elevation Burger was exceptional. The staff was friendly, attentive, and efficient. Their great service added value to the dining experience and elevated my overall rating.Another positive aspect was the easy access between gates when flying American Airlines. It was convenient to grab a quick meal at Elevation Burger without having to go out of the way.If you do choose to dine at Elevation Burger, I would suggest coming during peak hours. This is when you are more likely to get a fresh burger, as they are likely to be cooked to order and not pre-made.Overall, while the service and convenience were commendable, the pre-made Breakfast Burger and basic presentation brought down the rating.“
“If you like crab. Get here.The guy we had was amazing. Showed us what to do - you get fresh crabs on your table covered in these spices from heaven and then you barbarically tear them apart.The guy we had - skinnier white dude. I wish I knew his name. He took all the guess work out and showed us exactly how to get the most meat AND brought us a live one!!Very cool experience.“
